second trial

[When the announcement sounds and the evidence gathered it’s time for a trial. When the remaining champions are all gathered by the repaired docking bay doors they slide slowly slide open.

The two lines of sentry robots are there again, creating a border path from the docking bay doors to the circle of metal podiums. The podiums themselves were made of strange metals in red and gold and orange and black, each one etched with the name of one of the Champions. There are flood lights - like spot lights - in front of each podium. The lights on Diego, Kiss-Shot and Erika's podiums have been turned off and their floating grey scale portraits have joined the four from last week.

Blaze Dudely stands on a repair deck on top of his ship, which looms over the proceedings ominously. Rather than the glee the Champions may think he would take in this kind of display, he merely stands there with his arms crossed, expression unreadable and his cyborg eye scanning the Champions with a piercing scrutiny, like he's searching for one of them to act out of line.]


Mornin’, Champions. Here’s how this is goin’ to go: take the evidence ya found, piece together what happened and find who took out the Champion Detective and... [He pauses, running through Kiss-Shot's excessively long title in his head.] The vampire one. Founders, I regret giving her that title. If ya find them, they’ll be dealt with. If ya don’t, they’ll be free to go and the rest of ya will face punishment. Take the time ya need but don’t bore me.

I believe so. Perhaps they were counting on no one wanting to get close enough to examine her.

...At the very least you and I would have been able to examine her, and probably several others. That doesn't seem like a very safe bet at all.

Agreed.

[ I mean, HE DIDN'T, but it should be clear by now that he isn't fazed by touching corpses, so... ]

So where do we think Erika was actually killed, then? Was she moved to the incinerator room after the fact?

A bloody knife that stabbed Kiss-Shot was in the incinerator room. So at the least we can confirm that Kiss-Shot was in there at some point.

However, it's possible that Kiss-Shot was chased into there, and Erika was killed in the hallway.
