Her Secret Within {{Togafuka}}

The Reveal

Byakuya P.O.V

Toko and I stood near our podiums, the usual by now.

The photo frames of the deceased students reminding us that we could be next.

It was unsettling to think about it for too long.

It was nothing new to hide my emotions from the other students.

The only time I'm allowed to break character is at the right moment.

That is, when people suspect us.

In fact, it didn't take very long for someone to suspect Fukawa for murdering Sakura.

Aoi was quick to list me, her, and Yasuhiro as the main suspects since all 3 of us got notes from Sakura before the murder occured.

I could tell she wanted us all dead. But why?

I declined the note in person of course. Why would I spend time with someone who isn't Fukawa anyways.

"I didn't go, that's all."

I kept my words blunt and short.

Hah. I'd rather spend time with Fukawa than that macho girl who was being used as a motive.

Now that Fukawa is being interrogated, I'm going to pray everything goes smoothly.

"You were given a note from Sakura too! So where were you when the murder happened!"

"I.. I was in my dorm.. a-and yes I did receive a note from Sakura b-but I declined it with an apology note.."

"Hold on!"

Makoto fired an invisible truth bullet in Fukawa's face.

"How would of you given the note to Sakura if you were in your dorm the entire time!"

"That's kinda suspicious.."

"I can confirm she was in her dorm, I was with her the entire time." I stated firmly to the crowd.

Now, that wasn't a lie. I was with her for a prolonged period of time.

"She wrote an apology note and made me deliver it to Sakura as, Fukawa.. wasn't in a good state at the time."

"How do we know you're not lying?!" Aoi shot back at me fiercely.

This girl really wanted us dead.

"Do you think I'd lie in a situation like this you plebeian?!"

"I bet your only saying you were with her to cover up Sakura's death!"

"That's understandable. Considering she must of thought Sakura wanted to hurt her." Makoto said.

"Hmm, Togami i need confirmation about something. Is this the note you delivered to Sakura? I found it near the crime scene."

Kyoko held up a peice of lined paper containing the apology note Fukawa wrote.

"Yes, that's the one."

"Thought so, Fukawa even signed her name on the bottom"

Who would've thought my kid ended up being a mage.

Aoi grit her teeth knowing she couldn't object evidence right in front of her.

"Wait, why did you stay in your dorm Fukawa chan?"

"I.."

"It's none of your business!" She shook her head away from the others with her face scrunched up in a ball pouting.

"Well I think we should know why you were in there the entire time! Or were you?!"

Aoi was pressuring Fukawa so bad, I thought she'd break right then and there.
