Whodunnit? A Manor Of Mystery

Whodunnit? A Manor Of Mystery ~MEAT Me At The Steps

     They return the great room ballroom floor around 1:20pm. They all wear classy, but casual clothing. One by one they walk down the steps. And then freeze. Waiting for them at the bottom is a gift, but I don't believe they would like to keep this present.

     With a large meat cleaver sticking out of the 2 victims heads, Paige and Evan sit at the bottom of the staircase, hands tied behind their back together and flooded by blood. 

     "EVAN!" Kyle screams. He Burris his face in his hands, and Katie hugs him. "No freaking way." Alex stares, astonished. "But we were all just here, nothing odd was going on.' Sami pouts. "2 deaths, that's new." Jennie tilts her head, confused. "Well, I'm still alive. So whatever." Kallista shrugs. "Great. Just great." Winter glares at Kallista. "Quit it you 2." Dave scolds. They stop their bickering, but continue to send evil glances at each other. 

    "It seems the killer has taken not 1, but 2 victims for this murder." Thomas observed. "You all seem reeady, so  let us begin our daily investigations." "Daily murders, never thought this would happen" Greg added. "Though most things have seemed to be doubled from last night, today, there will be 1 extra area to investigate today. Making a total of 4 areas to overview." Thomas explains to the stressed guest. "You may discuss with who you chose of where you would like to go. The crime scene, the morgue, the last known whereabouts of Paige, or the last known whereabouts of Evan." 

     Kallista and Dave decide to join Kyle and Katie. "We will have the largest group this way, and I trust you guys the most." Dave urged. "Yeah, I have to agree. We need to get information from all 4 areas." Kyle and Katie were suspicious of Dave and Kallista's gesture to unite, but went along with it so they could monopolize 1 of the areas. They sat around a chess board table in the study. During this, Sami, Greg, and Alex were sitting on the chase lounge in the great room. "We cant even get 1 area!" Sami expresses. "Maybe we could form a partial alliance with the other team? So that can assure Jennie and Winter to receive scared cards." "I like the Idea," Greg began, "however I doubt they'd agree with it." "Never hurts to try." Alex responded. "I'll go talk to them when I can." 

     "They left us!" Winter shouts. "After all we did!" Jennie grumbles. "We know they wont come back, and we cant even get like 2 areas. So well have to just try our best, but accept the thought that we could die tonight." Winter and Jennie look at each other, horrified. Meanwhile Alex has gone to speak with Dave. "So Dave, it's very clear we all hate Jennie and Winter. What if we formed a partial alliance, to promise not to share any information with them whatsoever." "I like the idea, but cross us, and you'll be sorry." Dave ordered. They each shake hands, and head to the great room.

     "4 areas to investigate, a true test of your detective skills, as well as who is lying and telling the truth. Let us begin!" Thomas instructed. "Who would like to visit the morgue, where you will be able to view both the bodies." Dave and Alex raise their hand, then follow Gina out and down the hall. "What about Evan's last known whereabouts, his bedroom." "Kyle and Jennie, please follow Tina." They pop up and follow Tina up the stairs. "Those who would like the crime scene, may examine the dance floor here." Sami and Katie each walk over to the floor in front of the steps. "And Paige's last known whereabouts, please, follow me to the breakfast room." Greg, Winter, and Kallista follow Thomas into the breakfast room.

     THE MORGUE: "It's creepy with just 2 people." Alex shudders. "I'm used to bodies by now, I figured this case needed my expertise." Dave boast. Alex rolls his eyes at his arrogance. "Already something isn't normal, Paige and Evan's skin is very blotchy and pink. Like an allergic reaction." Dave indicates. "Interesting." Alex mumbles. "Okay, let's take out this cleaver." Dave explains. "What!" Alex shouts, shocked. "That's just gross and wrong." Alex covers his eyes. "Holy!" "What is it bloody and gross?!" Alex demands. "It's fake." Dave assured. "What?" Alex opens his eyes. "The large meat cleavers are shaped to make it look like they are lodged into their heads. But they're actually fake." Dave continues. "So the cause of death was clearly not stabbed with a meat cleaver."
