Flicker- Two Worlds Combine

Chapter 8: Scarlett

I see Nikolai heading upstairs to his room, and I decide I should go to my room as well. I mean, it's been a long day after watching Spencer's dick become minced meat, after all. I personally couldn't guess why the mastermind is so fucked up they would do that, but nobody knows nowadays.

The lights begin flickering, and I peek out of a hole I made in my door to catch movement, and see if somebody is taking a while to get to their room. I see a flash of red, which must be Rosalina. Then I hear Qasim lightly whimpering as he passes by. I heard their doors close, and I assume they are safe. I don't know, however. Everybody else comes, but I'm trying to see if anybody leaves the hall again, so I can note of their behavior tomorrow.

I begin to get bored of staying here for so long, and slowly get drowsy. No.... If I leave the door open, the murderer is sure to get me! But I can't keep my eyes open... I fall asleep in the most vulnurable position ever.

I finally wake up when the lights turn on. I'm alive! Thank god. I suddenly hear more screaming. Oh no, what happened this time? I quickly go downstairs, and I see something terrible. There are four decapitated heads on the floor. What the actual fuck? The murderer can't kill four people! And unlike Nave, this was clearly done by someone else.

''Hello, everyone! I am happy to tell you that the murderer attempted to kill somebody, but the medic saved the targeted person. Anyways- Oh my! It appears 4 have died! So, I'm sure none of you know what just happened. Well, Evan, Cactus and Cash decided it would be a good idea to try escaping the building, and Caleb went with them to make sure they were safe. Look what happened to them now. The were all survivors, though. Anyhoo... The investigator believes Veronica is evil. Have fun!''

Damn, four deaths? We've lost 13 people now. We're definitely going to lose at this rate. However, we at least are beginning to get SOME evidence, now that we know Mikah, Ezra and Marley are safe, meaning we still have 94 suspects. This might get those three targeted, though. I hope not, because Mikah was a really cool person when Sabrina introduced me to them.

Welp. I can't help but agree with the investigator. Veronica and Tamia were both eager to execute Spencer last night. What's up with them? I begin to walk upstairs so talk to the others, but I suddenly see something.

One of the hallways has a blood splatter on the floor. I completely forgot that the murderer had attacked somebody tonight... Did it take place here? Marie, Marley, Mary, Mason, Mateo, Matt, Melodie, Miguel, Mikah, Mike, Mila, and Minji's rooms are all in this hallway. One of them must have been attacked. I wish we could figure out who. 

Eventually, we all go downstairs and discuss. Veronica starts. ''I swear to fuck, it's clearly not me, if you think I'm the killer that proves you're a dumbass.'' I think she's telling the truth for some reason. I then notice a certain woman didn't come downstairs with us. Where is she now? I would ask, but I'm not sure if I remember her name correctly.

''You know, if the killer attacked someone in that hallway, both the victim and the killer could be from the hall.'' Rosalie states. I guess that's true. They might have tried to stab them as they went into their room for the night. It's a good thing it didn't end so terribly. I wonder who the medic could be...

Adora seems nervous. ''What if Mike is the killer? He feels... otherworldly. So does Grace, to be honest, but they are in a different hallway.'' Hmmm, I've never thought about it before. Maybe Mike really did attempt to kill somebody tonight. Of course, he just as well could have been the attempted victim.

Marley frowns and shuffles through her cards. I have a feeling she doubts Mike to be the killer among us. I wouldn't know, though, so I just continue to listen into the others discussing. At this point, the killing is a bit too much for me.

Natalia scoffs. ''Shut up, winning smile skank, the killer has brown hair, remember? It's probably Mila. If you think I'm wrong, fight me, bitch. I won't hesitate to spread lies about you on Twitter.'' God, can someone just murder this girl already? She's getting on my nerves. But I guess we all lose a little bit of sanity as time goes on.

Melodie puts her hand on Natalia's shoulder. ''Natalia, if you act this way, the other might vote you off. So let's try to control our emotions, okay?'' Melodie is always so protective of Natalia. What if she was the one attacked, and Natalia was the one who saved her? That would be worth protecting.

Jacob shuffles uncomfortably. ''Well, maybe the brown hair was just dropped by someone who was at the pool for fun before the lights went out? We have no that proof the killer is the one who had dropped it. In the meantime, I also agree that Mike is suspicious.''

I don't understand what's even going on nowadays. Everybody is throwing around accusations, and somebody is a liar that we are unable to spot. I wish we could get the evidence we need to make based accusations that aren't random bullshit like the one's we've had so far.

''Hey guys, we all know what time it is! Submit your vote for free Robux! We all love free Robux, right?'' Fuck off, mastermind. I don't want your free Robux. I guess I'll vote for Mike. He give me vibes of a gross femboy who dresses in maid outfits. And people like that don't deserve to live.

''Oh wow, Mike had the most votes this time around. That's 14 survivors that have been screwed over now. Shame on you. Time to banish this ghost!'' Ghost??? What the hell do they mean by that? Like always, Mike sends himself into the execution room. I won't miss him, but Evelyn and Grace both have tears in their eyes. I think they were close with him.

Mike is there in the execution room, but suddenly, multiple crosses begin falling down. I hear shrill screams from the room, but when I look again, Mike is gone..... What in the actual name of hell happened to him? The execution this time was way faster than the other ones. Guess the mastermind didn't have much planned out that time. Shame on them, I suppose.

I see Veronica looks nervous. I can't blame her, because she might get voted out soon. All of the others are still in shock at all the things that are happening. I suddenly hear more crackling on the speakers. 

"You guys smell horrible! Can you all just take a shower in the pool, please? I'm sick of this smell getting into the vents.'' Okay, that was rude. I decide to go with most of the others. Really, all of us besides Adam, Adora, Mason, and a few other people head to the pool. I don't bother changing my clothes this time. I notice Veronica freezes at the sight of the girl's changing room. She cringes and walks back into the lobby. What is her deal? Jacob seems jumpy around this area too.

People such as Indah, Quinn, Albert and Sabrina stay at the pool to continue splashing around, but most of us left after we were refreshed. I notice Mikah adjusting their hat, and walk up to them. ''Hey Mikster.'' I grin.

''Sup Scar. How's life? Of course, our lives may not last very long.'' It feels nice to have somebody who I can joke with, even during these dark times. I'm finally beginning to feel peaceful when the lights begin flickering. Oh no... I hide in the storage closet Natalie was brought to an end in, and I eventually drift off. I know something bad will happen in the morning, I just know it... But I try to supress the thought.

Of course, the thought isn't as bad as the muffled screaming I can hear from the lobby ever so close to where I am.
