Heartless Impostor // Yellow + Blue Impostor

TW: Gore

Yellow smiled, nobody suspected a thing.

"Well, according to coms the last people with Brown in admin were Yellow amd Blue." Red stated, looking over at Blue.

"I was with Yellow on the balcony! I passed the sensor but saw Yellow and decided to follow them!" Blue argued looking over at their fellow impostor comrade for help.

"Well..." Yellow started, pausing for effect, pretending to remember something that didn't happen. "What you just said was mostly a lie! We went to admin with Brown to do a task. I finished quickly and made my way down to the balcony to clear asteroids. You didn't join me on the balcony until a few moments later! Even then, I went to storage to grab a watering can and didn't see you enter at all, so you must've vented on to the balcony!" Yellow sobbed, taking off their mask to wipe their crocodile tears away for added effect. Red patted Yellow on the back as they faked sobbed into their hands, smiling sinisterly.

Blue looked anguished. "WHAT! I didn't kill Brown! You did! We were both in admin while Brown was doing the ID task and you stabbed them and ran off! I had to vent because people were coming! YOU LIAR! I THOUGHT I COULD TRUST YOU!" Blue screamed, being held back by Black and Pink. Yellow sobbed louder for dramatic effect and clinged onto Red who was glaring at Blue through their mask.

"THAT'S IT! Throw Blue off ship! We've heard enough of this!" Red ordered, pointing towards the balcony. Blue hit and scratched but it didn't work, they were thrown off the ship. Eventually a robotic voice sounded, stating

"Blue was An Impostor. One impostor remains." Black and Pink cheered and walked back inside to see Red bleeding out onto the floor and Yellow nowhere to be seen. The lights cut.

"Hahaha! Wow! I didn't think my plan would work so flawlessly!" Yellow cackled, walking up behind Pink and Black. Black and Pink turned around quickly, holding onto each other. Yellow continued, "I mean, I'd expect you guys to believe Blue saying I was the other impostor. I didn't plan my crocodile tears to work that well I mean, none of you even suspected me for a moment!" Yellow laughed, twirling the knife in their hand.

"Sometimes, my dear crewmates, you have to make a few sacrifices to win." Yellow finished, lunging forward and stabbing Pink through the chest. Black screamed as their partner fell lifelessly to the ground with a thud, barely crushing Black's pet dog under them. Thick tears fell from Black's eyes as they picked up their pet dog and started running. Black knew however that unless they kill Yellow they wouldn't make it out alive. They felt hopeless, their chances of surviving were slim, and they were aware of this. Black ran into admin, ducking under the table in the middle usually used for tracking other crew mates to check for venting. Black tried to steady their breathing, clasping a hand over their mouth and trying to keep their dog from barking with the other.

Footsteps echoed through the ship that used to be so full of chatter. It made Black sick to think Blue and Yellow were behind this whole thing. The reality that Pink was now dead started hitting Black, making it harder to conceal their sobbing. Black's heart seemingly stopped as two black boots - now covered in blood - came into view of Black.

Yellow stopped at the door, seemingly looking around. Black started crying a bit harder as Yellow started walking again, circling slowly around Black's hiding space. Yellow stopped back where they started. Black let out a soft sigh in relief, barely louder than the breathing of Yellow. Suddenly, Yellow dropped to the floor looking directly at Black.

Black screamed loudly as Yellow grasped onto Black's wrists, forcefully dragging them out from their hiding place. Black cried and tried to kick Yellow but their attempts were fruitless. All the air left Black's lungs as they were forcefully thrown against the wall, crumpling to the floor. Yellow let out a hearty laugh as they walked towards Black, the blood covered knife in their hand let off a slight sheen.

Black screwed their eyes shut, whimpering and sobbing as Yellow's bloody boot pushed onto Black's chest and forced Black more against the wall.

"Any last words, my dear crewmate?" Yellow asked sinisterly, bending down so they could look Black in the eye easier. Black coughed, eventually saying

"I... trusted you....." Yellow just cackled insanely.

"That was a horrible choice." Yellow rammed the knife into Black's throat, leaving Black to choke on their own thick red blood. Yellow looked over, now just noticing the small green dog. Yellow smiled to themself, and made their way out of admin. Yellow walked to the balcony, grabbing a walkie-talkie out of a pocket on their uniform. After radioing into Yellow's original base, they waited for a ship to come pick them up. The other ship let down a rope, in which Yellow grasped onto and was lifted up into Yellow's home base.

"Welcome back Yellow."

"It's good to be back."
