The Mysteries of the House- Flicker

Part 4: The assassination.

Thomas's POV:

What the fuck? Nikolai just lost his head... Literally. We all begin screaming.

 "HOLY SHIT! WHAT DID YOU DO?" Charlie is understandably terrified .

 "Oh, you wouldn't want to know." The speaker says. " Anyways..." We are all to frightened to do anything.

 Charlotte screams "WHERE DID HIS HEAD GO?!?!?" 

 "Oh? You want it back? Well, here you go. You can have his journal too." Suddenly a book drops from the ceiling ... And so does Nikokai's servered head. Commence the screaming.

 " SOME BODY PLEASE JUST KILL ME ALREADY! " Mateo shouts. "I WOULD RATHER DIE THAN BE IN THIS SITUATION!" Omar looks like he's going to throw up, and Joshua looks like he wants to cry for hours. Suddenly, Cash walks over and picks up the journal.

 "I was a survivor. Rosalie is such a bitch I hope she dies. Ok Dashawn just died, but apparently he thought I was sus. Shit now Minji thinks it's me and Chidi hates me and Melodie also thinks it's me. I guess I'm going to die, but if you are the murderer, please kill Rosalie next." Wow, even in death, he still wants Rosalie dead?

The speaker adds, "Yeah, yall fucked up. Have fun in your hours before the lights go out again." We look around for a while, and Colleen finds some computers for us to use. There are actually enough to match how many of us were still alive, somehow. We are all bored, so me, Jojo, Joshua, Alec, Jordan, Jean-Claude, Albert, Dan, Lara and Seungho all download Among Us on steam and play together. 

 "Ok, the code is GSQSQW." Jojo sets up the lobby for the rest of us. We all join him and customize our characters . We all give our opinions on how the game settings should be, and begin the game. We played on two impostors for obvious reasons, of course.

We all do our card swipe in admin, even though two of us are taking the task. Me and Jean-Claude do wiring in storage, and as I see Jordan go from storage to cafeteria, I check the admin map. There are two people in navigation, one in reactor, in is in upper engine but only for a moment, and one in weapons. I don't know where the people I cant see are. I go up to weapons, and see Lara, doing asteroids. I have empty chute in 02, so I do that and come back to her. I want to go down to storage and do the seconds part of trash, but suddenly Albert's body is reported.

At the meeting, Jojo, who reported the body, says he found it in reactor. "I was with Lara in weapons, she did asteroids." I say. " Ooh, me and Dan were in nav. I was doing my wires. " Seungho adds. "I can confirm their alibi, I saw them in nav on the admin map." I make sure to include. " Also, I have trash. " We all look at each other for a bit. "Well, we don't have any leads." Jordan says. " Skip? " I feel that is a bit suspicious. "Yeah, we have enough people to safely skip." Alec admits. I feel as though Jojo and Jordan are the most sus, but I skip so they don't catch on to how I feel. 

 Next, I show everybody my trash. Suddenly, we need to fix the lights. We all head to Electrical and did them, but suddenly we end up reporting Lara's body. Damnit, I knew she was safe! "It was a stack kill." Jojo says. " We have no idea who-" Jordan tries to talk, but suddenly, the lights go out for real. We all panic and begin running around like chickens with our heads cut off.

Murderer's POV:

I honestly think my target has what she is about to face coming to her. I honestly don't like the vibe she has given, even though she hasn't said much. I drag her over to the room next to the room with the piano, and I stab her in the arm. She cries out in pain, but before I can finish the job, somebody pushes me from behind. I realize the medic is here to save her. I can't see them, but from their outline, I can clearly tell that, considering who I am trying to kill, they aren't the person I expected to try and save them. They shove me out of the room and lock the door. Damnit, looks like the medic wins this time. I ain't gonna let them get in my way the next night. I quickly run upstairs and actually feel a bit glad that nobody will die tonight. I still don't like to kill people.
