The six individuals sat down at a large dinner table in the dining room. It was so quiet and no one was speaking. A man in purple was sitting next to a woman in a peach colored dress. The young man in azure blue was sitting next to a fidgeting man wearing yellow.
Zanna was wearing a rose pink dress and sitting next to Dr. Fink.
"So..." The man in purple said.
"Yeah..." The man in azure blue said before glaring and Dr. Fink.
"We...I see we all know one another." Vanity said looking at Morris.
Morris smirked at her and Prince glared at Morris.
A loud bang occurred in the other room and the six of them jumped.
They realized it had started to storm.
"Shit, I need to roll the window up on my car." Trae said, but as soon as he stood, a booming voice demanded that he sat down.
They turned their head to see a man in an all white suit standing at the entrance of the dining room.
"You all are likely wondering why you are here." The man said.
"Uh, yeah! It makes no sense. Some of these people know one another! What is going on?!" Zanna asked.
The man in white smirked before turning to open the door behind him and a man in a black suit walked in. His hair was slicked back and his eyes were a piercing blue. The black suit made him look incredibly pale.
The man in white walked to the end of the table to pull back a chair for the pale man in black to sit in and he was looking at the six individuals sitting at the table.
"My name is Master Matthews and I have invited you here tonight for one...specific...reason." The pale man said.
They were all staring at Master Matthews because it seems they had seen him before.
"Pfffft bro his name is Master. Not gonna lie if it was Master Bates, I would have to leave the room." Trae said trying to hold back his laughter.
Prince was noticing how Master Matthews was staring at Vanity and she was staring at him.
"Anyway, lift the domes on your plates, please." Master Matthews said as he leaned back in his chair.
The man in white was walking around as everyone lifted their domes.
They were hoping for their rewards, especially Morris. He was looking forward to his reward more than any of them.
Instead...under each dome was a random object: A pistol, a vial of poison, a blowpipe, an amulet, a lead pipe, a dagger, and a screwdriver.
Master Matthews stood and leaned onto the table with lightning cracking behind him.
The man in white was grinning at him proudly.
"Can I snort this?" Morris asked looking at the vial of poison on his plate.
"No, stupid!" Prince shouted before examining his amulet.
Vanity was looking at the pistol before picking it up and Zanna was closely examining the dagger on hers.
"So, what's is this? Our reward? I get a stupid pipe? Can I snort something with this?" Trae asked.
"Gah, you two are so stupid." Dr. Fink said to Morris and Trae before swallowing nervously at the screwdriver on his plate not even wanting to touch it.
"This can't be our rewards. It doesn't make any sense, Matthews." Prince said as he was watching him circle the table. The man in white following him closely almost not taking his eyes off of him.
"Please. Call me Drew. The rewards are somewhere in-"
Morris shot up from his seat with the vial before leaving the room and Trae went to follow him bringing his blowpipe with him.
Vanity looked at Prince before looking at Drew who was eyeing her with a grin.
"Johnny, can you go find Morris before he breaks something." Drew said to the man in white.
Johnny nodded before leaving the dining room to find Morris. Drew opened the two large doors that lead to the hallway.
"Have fun." Drew said slyly before shutting the doors.
Prince stood.
"This is so moronic. A waste of time. I could be reading my lines for my next movie." He said before standing, but also taking his
Vanity rolled her eyes.
"You know damned well that you don't have a new movie coming out, Prince. Sit down." She said harshly.
He stood before taking his amulet. Vanity took the pistol and hid it in the small hand bag before slipping out into the hall.
Prince was leaning his arm and head against one of the marble pillars in the kitchen.
"I don't think sitting here will help us. We can just leave. I knew this was a sham. We both knew." Dr. Fink said to Zanna, but he realized she too had gone into the hall. When did she sneak out?
All the women were gone in the room. The people that were left in the dining room was Prince and Dr. Fink.
Prince left the room to go into the hallway. Scratch that...now it was just Dr. Fink.
The logical thing to do is go to the kitchen for him. He was hungry and could be alone to think. He didn't care what the others were doing although he could hear Morris and Trae fighting in the next room.
Then...the power went out.
"What the fuck?" Dr. Fink asked as he was midway through finding some chips. He jumped when he heard something hit the ground outside.
Dr. Fink opened the door to the kitchen and was in a different room of this large mansion.
"Hey! Is everyone okay?!" Fink called out.
He walked forward but tripped on something.
"Fuck! Can anyone get me a light?!"
The power came on and Fink was looking at the body of Drew. He was dead.
"Hey! Everyone! We have a body! He's...he's dead."
