Everyone had agreed to investigate further. Socks , Meme, and Laff had been sent to investigate. Laff lead them into communications and they instantly saw Oompa body. It sent shivers down Laffs spine he glanced at meme with a surprised face. He was gaping at the body.
Socks had no exspression, which concerned Laff. He had been so panicked at the meeting and now that he was seeing the body he had legit no emotion. "Who do you think did it?" Meme asked crouching near Oompas body. "I'm kind of suspicious of Dino, I heard them arguing this morning." Laff said. Meme glanced at him raising an eyebrow. "Not saying it is him." Laff quickly clearified. "I doubt that an argument like that would end up with someone getting killed." Laff added. Earning a snort from socks who was looking around for a weapon that could have committed the crime. "What's the snort for?" Laff questioned. "Uh- I've seen arguments go far, Trust me! I remember my friend Alex got into an argument with Ray. A few minutes later, he was found dead." Socks said his eyes widing.
It was a little to dramatic for Laff in all honesty, something was off about socks to Laff. One moment he had no emotion and a stern tone, the next he was breaking down screaming about how he missed his old friends. Laff turned and noticed something sticking out of his pocket. He leaned foward and caught a slight gleam. He identified the item as a knife. "Hey meme-" Laff started "Yeah Laff?" "How did Oompa die?" He asked "It looks to be a knife." Meme sighed "I wonder who and why they killed oompa." Meme muttered "Well from how brutal this crime looks it seems it was a 'personal' thing." Socks pointed out. Socks had a knife in his pocket. Probably the knife that killed Oompa, why was he saying that it didn't seem like socks had anything personal with oompa.

Socks POV
Why is Laff staring at me? Wait is the knife sticking out of my pocket? I glanced down and saw that yes indeed was it sticking out. I quickly pushed it down further into my pocket and made a mental note. I was going to have to kill Laff, he knew to much. I knew it would be suspicious if I just asked Laff to leave with me and then he turns up dead so I would have to wait. "It seems that the person that did this, is good, real good." Meme claimed standing up. "It's pretty impressive." Laff admitted adding to the thought. I stayed silent my opinion didn't matter anyway.
"We'll since it seems we've gathered all the evidence we can I think it's best if we return to our task, shall we?" I asked with a grin. It was yes and emotionless grin, a grin I had to force. I only hoped it looked authentic. "Yeah I need to do some electrical tasks." Laff sighed walking out. "I should head back to medbay." Meme smiled. "I should go do my reactor tasks." I said. "Ok see you later, and stay safe socks." Meme added walking away.
**********
Laff twisted the wires and growled in frustration at the difficulty. "How does a person do this task!" He shouted annoyed eventually he figured it out and turned to leave when he bumped into socks. "Oh hey Socks." Laff said worried, it was just him and socks. "You know just a smidge too much for my comfort." Socks said his voice was slightly deeper but still had its normal pitch mixed in. "What are you talking about?" Laff said backing up. "You saw the knife didn't you?" Socks asked "I did." Laff responded. "So you did kill Oompa." Laff said connecting the dots. "Welcome to the conversation." Socks sighed. "Alright Laff, let me tell you a little something. I wasn't always like this." Socks sighed.
"I was a happy person a happy full human. A person who enjoyed doing things normal humans enjoyed doing. Till one day I got sent to the hell of a planet called polus. Where it all changed." Socks paused for air. "I ran into a creature called an 'imposter' it's goal infect a human and make it kill Every. Single. Person. On polus. And guess what Laff?!" "What?" Laff asked scared. "I was that lucky person, I LOST EVERYTHING. MY EMOTIONS, MY HAPPINESS. And my friends. I KILLED TO BE HAPPY!" Socks screamed. "Legitimately I killed to be happy. Killing made me smile Laff." Socks seemed to be on the verge of tears. "It won't let me sleep Laff. It won't let me eat Laff." Socks cried. "I'm suffering, but now that you know. I can't let you live. I'm so sorry." Socks looked at Laff sympathetic.
"Socks please." Laff pleaded. "I can help and try to find a cure!" Laff proposed. This made Socks freeze. "A cure?" Socks echoed he looked surprised. "A cure." Laff nodded. "Really?" Socks smiled. "I feel happy." Socks claimed like it wasn't anything he'd ever experienced before. "You'll really do that for me?" He asked "of course Socks, and to assure you. I won't tel anyone what you told me. I also want to tell them you killed Oompa, I really didn't like him anyway." laff admitted. "Same not gonna lie. Well I don't really like most of you, but I'll put up with you guys." Socks chuckled. "Glad about that." Laff laughed. (Wow that's funni Laff laughed.) "we'll have to wait till Meme goes to sleep. Then we can use medbay, I'll see if I can make you a cure. It might take a bit however." Laff sighed. "I'm willing to wait if it means I can feel happy again." Socks smiled.
