I was watching Tango's Among Us videos and found these quotes which are great out-of-context:
"Etho you're wearing far too little clothing for my liking." -Ren 
"I WANNA STAB SOMEBODY!" -Tango (ok this really isn't that weird)

Okay, moving on.

-------------------------------

The Architechs were awoken by a loud alarm.

"AGH!" Grian jerked awake, fell out of the tree, and caught himself before he hit the ground, flying up to survey the area.

Iskall hopped nimbly down out of the tree, landing next to Mumbo, who'd been left below.

Grian landed in front of them in a panicked state. "Run, run, run!" he yelled over the blaring noise and dashed into the woods, leaving no time for questions.

Iskall and Mumbo followed and the three ran into the forest.

"Grian, can you explain?" Iskall yelled.

"Walls- fifth day- crush- run-" Grian choked out.

"What?" Mumbo exclaimed.

"The walls close in on the fifth day and they'll crush us if we don't run!" Grian said.

Iskall and Mumbo didn't know how to respond to that, so they just followed him.

They emerged from the forest to find the altar where they had started. False, Wels, and Bdubs emerged from the forest across from them.

"Grian," False said coldly.

"Hello, False," Grian replied cheerily. He seemed to have calmed down and was no longer panicking. 

False walked up to Grian and pulled out her sword, a shiny, sharpened diamond blade. She tapped Grian's chest with the tip and he shuddered. "False?"

"You put us all in here, forced us into the Hunger Games, and I will have my revenge. More than that, you have wings and knowledge of this that made the Games unfair," she listed. She drew her blade across Grian's arm and he yelped, stumbling back as it easily sliced through his sweater.

"W-what?" Grian asked, eyes wide and confused.

"You have put us in here, against our will, and now you will pay," she hissed. False slashed at Grian's wings, dying them red with his blood. Grian screamed and jumped away.

"Iskall, now is the time to fulfill your decision," False said, turning and walking towards Iskall.

"Wait- what promise, Iskall?" Mumbo asked.

Iskall looked guilty and replied, "I- a few days ago I told Bdubs I'd betray you and Grian when False came to kill you."

"WHAT?" Mumbo yelled in shock.

"It was the first night and I was mad, too! I'm not anymore and..." Iskall took a deep breath. "I won't help you."

"Really? Bad choice," False threw her sword into Iskall's chest. Grian screamed and Mumbo stood in shock.

Wels stepped forward shakily. "I don't want to help you anymore. I didn't realize you'd be doing this."

False rolled her eyes. "Coward. So you're a traitor as well? Fine. You chose this."
