The Start
Picture - Daniell

It was the first day that they were in the town. Emma got out of her bed and went outside. Everyone from the houses were standing in a circle. "Hello everyone!" David said, "Let's welcome the newcomers to our game!" He announced and everyone cheered. "What game are we playing?" Holly asked. A female from house four grinned, "A game of deception, of mystery. Everyone has a role, we need to find the bad roles and put them up on the podium." She explained, she appeared to be an investigator. Emma nodded, as did Sarah, Holly, and Jonathan. Camilo looked uneasy, but Luis was excited. "When does the game start?" He asked, "Tonight." The female said. "Oh, and my name is Alice." She added before night fell and they went to their houses.

Mafia
The Godfather sat in her chair. The mafioso, consigliere, and consort waited for her command. "Kill house eight. He seems to be mayor, perhaps has been for a long time." The Godfather commanded, and the mafioso nodded, leaving to do as told. "Consigliere, go see what the person in house fifteen is. Consort, distract house five." She then said. The consort and consigliere nodded, leaving to do their job. The Godfather closed her eyes and smiled. This would be fun.

Escort
The escort went to one of the houses near him. He didn't pay attention to the number. It was either 6, 4, or 5. He knocked on the door, and the owner opened it. The escort waited until a female opened the door. "Hello." The female said. "May I come in?" The escort asked. The female nodded and opened the door. The escort stepped inside of the house and the door closed behind him.

Arso
The arsonist went to house 11. He doused it with gasoline quickly as he wasn't sure if the female owner was home. The arsonist then left quickly as a door on the second floor creeped open.

Jailor
The jailor had Ruby from house 13. "What's your role?" The jailor asked. "Doctor," Ruby replied quickly. The jailor nodded, not sure if he should believe her. Yet, he did.

Sheriff
From house 11, the sheriff snuck out. She went to house 12, as it was right next to her. Emma sat in her living room, as if expecting something. The sheriff sat next across from Emma. Not finding anything she was doing suspicious, the sheriff wrote in her will that Emma was not suspicious.
