Island of the Slaughtered

Episode 4: Confessional

The episode opens with Julia sitting in the confessional.

Confessional - Julia:
"I want to trust MK, she’s someone I actually consider a friend. But… I can’t ignore how it looks. Priya just happened to go missing after grouping with her? It just doesn't feel like a coincidence. What if she’s involved? I don’t want to believe that, but it’s hard not to think about it."

She takes a deep breath, trying to compose herself.

"I cannot cry right now, the makeup on my face is all I have left!"

Back in the main cabin, the contestants are discussing the events of the day, their voices tense and filled with unease. Damien, standing by the window, notices MK and Scary Girl off to the side, talking and smiling with each other.

"Wait a minute… since when are they friends? I don’t remember them ever talking before." Damien half-mutters to himself.

Confessional - Damien:
"I don't remember them being close.."

He turns to the others, his brow furrowed with suspicion. "Doesn’t anyone else find it weird that they’ve suddenly bonded?"

Axel, agrees, "Yeah, it is a little strange. Especially after what happened with Priya."

"We need to keep an eye on them. Something’s definitely off." Wayne confides to everyone.

The group gathers around a slightly broken, wooden table, tension palpable in the air. "I think we should stay in the cabins tonight. No one should go out alone with a killer on the loose." Bowie shares with the group.

"Agreed. We can’t afford to lose anyone else." Emma says, not wanting to lose anyone else. As they all nod in agreement, MK walks over, still stained with Priya’s blood.
"What’s everyone talking about?" she asks.

The group falls silent, exchanging suspicious glances.

"Oh, just… planning for the night." Julia tells her.

"Smart choice. You wouldn’t want to run into anything dangerous out there..." Scary Girl says, laughing slightly, in the corner of the cabin.

The contestants settle in for the night, huddled together in the cabin. The atmosphere is tense, with whispered conversations and wary glances toward MK and Scary Girl.

Chase, whispers to Caleb, "Do you think they’re hiding something?" Caleb, nodding, says, "Absolutely. We need to keep watch. Something isn’t right."

As the night wears on, everyone tries to get some rest, but the unease keeps them from sleeping soundly. They take turns keeping watch, ensuring they’re ready for anything.

As dawn breaks, the contestants slowly wake up. They’re exhausted, but relieved that no one has died during the night. The tension, however, is still thick.

"Well, we made it through the night. But we still need to figure out what’s going on with MK and Scary Girl." Bowie says whilst stretching. Axel nods, "I’ll keep my eyes on them. We need to know the truth."

Confessional - Caleb:
"This is all so crazy, I still sorta trust MK.. but to be honest I've never really trusted Lauren. Even before all.. this happened. I don't think anyone did."
