It was early. 4am, maybe. As far as everyone knew they were all asleep; however, that wasn't really the case.
THE NIGHT BEFORE [ takes place last chapter ]:
"Guys, I want to ask you something," said Peggy to Wanda, Sharon, Maria, and Jane. "I want to know if you guys want to make a sort of deal with me?"
"What do you mean, deal?" Jane asked.
"I mean that we all stick together. The five of us. We don't go out without the group, we don't eat without the group, we don't go or do anything without the group. That way, we all know where we all are at all times, and can vouch for each other. That way we'll know that none of us are the shapeshifter if we keep an eye on each other at all times. And if you leave without anyone, we'll know it's you."
"Isn't that a bit...extra? I mean what if we have to use the bathroom or something?" asked Sharon.
"Then the rest of us have to be in the area. It's not too much to ask, in my opinion. We just have to be around each other all the time so none of us die, one way or another."
"It's not a bad idea. The best chances for the shapeshifter to strike is when people go into the forest alone or in a pair. If there are five of us, there's no way for them to cover it up that 4 people went missing," Maria agreed.
"And if there's voting, it'll be 4 against 3 because we'll vouch for each other. Honestly, it's a lot, but it's pretty smart," Wanda admitted.
"If you don't want to do it, that's fine, I just thought it'd be easier for all of us. This makes it harder for voting and the shapeshifter to get rid of us."
"I'm in," Wanda and Maria said simultaneously.
"Me too," Jane agreed.
"Sharon?" Peggy asked.
"...Yeah...yeah, that might work...wait, what about Carol? Didn't she say Thor was the shapeshifter?"
"She did, but I don't know, I don't trust her. It's just a hunch, but I'd rather we keep this to ourselves."
Little did they know, the shapeshifter (Carol) was listening outside their door. After the newfound group had gone to sleep, "Carol" went to one of the unoccupied rooms, as 3 were being used currently.
Okay, you're going to have to find another way now. They've noticed that people end up dying when they go outside alone...took them long enough, I've only been doing that since Sam. So what are my options? I can start being more obvious about it...maybe do something in the house, make people paranoid...well, more so. Let me wait this out, I feel like they might make their own issue more complicated.
