I stared out my window, watching the moon and the stars rise over the town.  The night had once seemed so peaceful, so serene, but now, it was a constant threat.  The killers always struck at night.

Something felt wrong.  I could feel pain spreading through my body, not knowing why.  I reached for my rolecard- something must've changed.  I could barely read the word Werewolf before I shifted into my wolf form.  It wasn't like the books I'd read, where the characters weren't conscious of what they were doing as a wolf- I was still fully conscious, simply with a newfound bloodlust.

I figured Grace would be guarding Mekhi, so I decided not to attack him yet, hesitant to risk killing such a close friend. I decided not to visit anyone, and to just kill anyone who came to my house, since they could be trying to attack me. I curled up on my bed and fell asleep, since I was invulnerable to most attacks anyways, and could easily fight back against any attackers. I didn't kill anybody that night.

The next day, nobody was dead. I couldn't help being startled. Mekhi and Grace had both revealed that they were town, yet neither one was dead.

"I was attacked." Grace stated. "I guess the Doctor saved me, so thanks to whoever that is."

"So, it was you who protected me last night." Mekhi grinned. "I appreciate it, Bodyguard." Grace only nodded in response. "Well, besides that, what else do we know?" There was a pause.

"Did you ever find out about Shayton?" Javi asked.

"Ah, right."  He replied.  "She still claims to be roleless.  Since I jailed her and she didn't kill me, she's at least not a Werewolf or a Serial Killer."  He paused.  "She might be Mafia, since I got attacked when I jailed her and it wasn't by her, but we can't draw conclusions based on that.  Not reasonably, anyways."  The rest of us nodded in agreement.

"Thank you, Mekhi."  Shayton offered a smile, which he returned, albeit halfheartedly.  "Do we have anything else, or can we head back inside?"  There was no response from the town.  We suck at gathering information.  I sighed as we all returned to our homes.
