Flicker- Two Worlds Combine

Chapter 27: Coralie

Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god! Aurora... Who would do this to someone as sweet and innocent as you? You truly didn't deserve this. I honestly just feel so much defeat that Aurora, who I really didn't even know that well, is dead, that I feel myself beginning to cry right here and now. We have to find the murderer. We'll be doomed if we don't. Our 29th vote will take place tonight, and I am determined to find who the killer is.

Everybody seems fairly upset, and of course the announcement tells us what we all knew. ''The murderer has hung Aurora to death last night, and the investigator once again accused Indah of murder.'' Indah again? They really better have a good reason to go against her at this point. Christy is clearly trying to comfort Indah. Have they grown close by now? There must be some sort of reason for that...

Thomas speaks out. ''Hmm. Maybe the investigator saw Indah acting suspicious recently and they think it's her because of that? Most accusations have changed each night, so they must have had a good reason here.'' Eva is practically jumping with joy in the back, why is that? 

Alec takes a deep breath to speak. ''Well, after reviewing some stuff I've noticed recently, I think it might be Matt. He could possibly manipulate Rosalina to go alone with him and kill her, and he also matches that white shoelace found the third night someone was attacked, not to mention he was the first to notice it.''  Hmmm, that might be right.

Liza already seems upset. ''This cycle of voting the wrong people out is just never going to end, will it? He isn't the killer, and you have no proof!'' She takes Mary's arm, and the two of them walk off, probably to discuss in private. Mikah seems like they want to go after her, but Ezra puts their hand on their shoulder, so they hesitate and lose interest.

''I wouldn't do it! I didn't remember back then, but now I know... You wouldn't believe me if I told you, and it'd obviously lead to my own downfall, so what's the point?'' Matt seems quite dismayed nowadays, unlike his usual self. I don't really know if I can truly trust those claims of his. In the meantime, what in the world is Liza up to? I honestly want to follow the two of them.

''I hope he isn't the murderer, but his sudden disinterest in collaborations is quite suspicious. Just the thought of him being the one who killed Lukey and many others upsets me. Voting out Grace was a horrible idea... We shouldn't have listened to damn Minji, she doesn't even do anything else!'' Odette seems quite enraged unlike usual. I'm sure Minji shall be very upset once she hears this, or has she already?

Annie is practically fuming. ''He sure as hell can't be trusted, but you know who else can't be trusted? Haneen. She's manipulating people who have lost those they care about! Amethyst, Kai, Jane... She's even using them to throw people like me and Becca under the bus! This shouldn't be allowed to go on any longer-''

''Calm down. I don't know what it means, but I just know somehow, if you vote her out, nobody will have happiness anymore. But, I have a feeling I can successfully convice you all, because I also know that tonight's vote will make something that happened over 10 days ago a wasted effort. Now, if you'll excuse me...'' Marley turns back to her cards. I guess she really told us.

Aphrodite is dismayed. ''This isn't very good. Is it really that no matter what, everything will just be a tragedy? Quite a shame then. Of course, we don't know if she's being truthful...'' I don't really know if what Marley says can be trusted either. She doesn't seem too keen on trying to truly help us.

''Yeah! Haneen doesn't bring anyone happiness nowadays! Marley is clearly just some woman who's lost her marbles. For god's sake, she'll even call out Ally for her sins, and even try to convince us to throw Dan under the bus! I don't know if she's the murderer though. I think Matt is more suspicious, but only because I trust Alec.'' Fillipe is really going at it now.
