☆ WEEK TWO ( INVESTIGATION )

[raisingproject]

Magical Girl Raising Project

Friday, Week 2

18 REMAIN...?

This week has been absurdly strange. From Fav bringing his "friend" over to force people to have their wishes granted via murder to the fact that the arcade makes a lot of people uncomfortable. I mean, who wouldn't be, when it spells out a lot of people's life stories in it? It honestly is surreal. Nevertheless, things seem to be quiet at first... at least, until people decide to exit their rooms in the Inn (sorry, Miach and One) and take a whiff of that Breath of the Wild that you might have been stuck playing on last night--

Except for the immediate fact that the first thing people in the inn will smell is the faint, coppery smell of blood in the morning. In fact, there's a whole trail of it that leads to various places depending on which floor you're staying at the inn. And there might be some blood outside, too...

[Ugh... she absolutely doesn't want to touch it but... gotta find their murder-happy co-habitator.

Time to look over the body. Any obvious external wounds?]

[raisingproject]

[ The obvious one is the diagonal deep cut to Eliza's left side of her throat; while it's not enough to dismember her, it's definitely a thing. ]

[enthrallingly]

[Does the wound match the naginata that she found in the river.]

[raisingproject]

[ Yes. ]

[zackthekiller]

[Zack has changed to magic form and is dashing to the body.]

[Yep, that's the girl he's been talking to all week. Are any of her pokeballs on her, or is it just her and her wounds?]

WHO DID THIS?!

[enthrallingly]

Be quiet you loud buffoon, that's what we're trying to figure out!

[Never mind that she's the worst corpse toucher of all time.]

[zackthekiller]

[And Zack is really pissed off right now.]

Fuck...

Hang on, I know someone who can handle bodies...

[buylowsellhigh]

Zack!

[Recette almost drops the Nagitana in fright at the sudden yelling from earlier. We don't need another slit neck around here Recette, be careful!]

I-i'm so sorry about Eliza... but we don't know who did this yet.

[zackthekiller]

Grrrrrr.....

[Zack is not Eliza. Zack doesn't crawl into a corner and cry. Zack gets MAD.]

When I find that motherfucker who killed her, I swear I'm going to kill the bastard!

[buylowsellhigh]

Zack, no! Then we'll have to hold another trial and then-!

[She remembers Beyond's execution.]

I-i really don't want to see you die horribly like that!

[enthrallingly]

About time.

[...]

Wait. Why aren't you doing it? What kind of useless man are you?

[zackthekiller]

[You wanna fight him, Seraphina?]

Hey, look. I can tell the girl's had her neck slashed, but I'm so fucking pissed right now I don't think I'd do a good job of poking the corpse.

[He'd also wind up breaking the evidence or something.]

[enthrallingly]

[SHE DOES. But that won't help right now. She sighs, hands on her hips as she shakes her head.]

Fine, fine. Then go over there and play with some grass or something.

[raisingproject]

[ You better be careful, since there seem to be partial bloody footprints near the river.

But no, her monster balls Pokéballs aren't here. ]

[enthrallingly]

[LET'S TAKE A PHOTO OF THOSE.

What do they look like?]

Footprints!

[raisingproject]

[ The footprints themselves are just of a small portion of the heel and almost impossible to identify someone with it. ]

[enthrallingly]

[Are they going towards or away from the river?]

[enthrallingly]

[Besides the obvious blood, is there anything off about her clothes or her nails? Anything that might indicate a struggle?]

[raisingproject]

[ Her clothes are awfully wet considering that she was pushed into a river, but there seems to be some bruising on her right shoulder area. ]

[enthrallingly]

[That's as to be expected. Bruising though...]

Looks like she took a beating to her shoulder. But the only weapon here is the naginata that matches the wound on her throat.

[imitationsoul]

[ 15 minutes late to the investigation, though without Starbucks, what's up, there's a corpse.

Since Zack seems to have decided Miach is part of the closest thing to forensics that they have around here, she might as well make her way over straight to Seraphina and the body. ]

Are those the only bruises? I expect if there was any kind of fight there might be more hidden under her clothes.

[enthrallingly]

We could take them off.

[It's fine by her. Might want to warn the guys to get out because she's just going for it--]

now in the right place...

[perfectbeing]

[Szayel isn't far behind Miach, having also been summoned to the scene.

After deactivating his magical form, he makes an initial glance at the body and...yikes.]

May I also ask what else you have discovered thus far? There are a few things I am looking for in particular.

[Having just come from the inn and all...]

[zackthekiller]

About time you two showed up!

[Zack does NOT look happy right now. Someone's gonna pay for this sin.]

[enthrallingly]

She was in the river with that naginata.

[Seraphina points to Recette, who now has the weapon.]

There's a nasty slash to her neck that probably killed her and some bruises on her shoulder. I also saw a partial footprint, but nothing that we can really use. And they were headed towards the water, so they're probably clean by now.
