Murder Swap AU
Where everything is the same, except chapters 2 and 3 are swapped. meaning the money motive came before the secret motive, thus Ishimaru was murdered first.
Instead of the note saying Yameda found a secret exit, it said "Come me me in the Science Lab, I've got something to tell you -Mondo" in an attempt to lure the hall monitor in, and frame the biker.
Ishimaru would quickly go over there and the series of events happens impeccably well. With him being bludgeoned and Yameda faking his death.
Mondo would be the last one to find the body (Looking for his Kiyodai is more important than some body announcement, dammit), leaving everyone to try to calm him down before reaching the scene.
Once there, and after getting over the first shock of seeing his bro dead on the floor, he splinters. He would just sit by Taka emotionless, while looking at him with a pale face and wide eyes silently.
Naegi would somehow be able to convince Oowada to leave the body to go and try to find the murderer, which would work.
The body goes missing once they return. This was the last straw for him, he would start yelling and swearing, shouting things like, "WHEN I GET MY HANDS ON THE ONE WHO DID THIS, I SWEAR I WILL KILL YOU LIKE YOU DID TO HIM!"
It would get so bad that they would have to leave him in a locked room (He is the number one suspect, after all, he could be faking due to the note they found in Ishimaru's hand) until their investigation was finished.
Time would run out, and Mondo would have calmed down considerably. Left as an emotionless shell, longing for his missing half.
The trial would continue as normal beside the few snide remarks to the unknown blackened. The note would be brought up, but quickly debunked for the original writer had far better handwriting than the biker.
Once Celestia was revealed as the grand mastermind behind the killing, Mondo would have grit his teeth and clutched his fist. He wouldn't allow himself of punch, nor do any harm to her since it would go against his brother's philosophy.
After her execution, Mondo would mentally and physically distance himself, snapping at those who came too close.
Chihiro had, sadly, been one of the ones to come too close. Leading to their death.
He became an hypocrite, saying he despised murderers, but became one himself. He didn't even bother to defend himself in the class trial. Every second passing was another closer to seeing his bro.
It would be worth it.
