Murderer Among Us

Spirits

*f7wjYisGyIi's POV*

I rolled over in my bed for what seemed to be the 600th time. I couldn't sleep, and I didn't know why. I checked the clock on my sidetable.

2 AM.

"Ugh. It's only 2 AM. I thought it would be at least 3:30."

I sat up in bed and thought for a long time about how to sleep. I tried counting sheep, and instead got bored. I tried flipping the pillow over. No good. Nothing seemed to work.

"I'm feeling a little thirsty. Maybe a glass of water from the kitchen can help me sleep."

I quietly got out of bed and exited my bedroom. The door creaking was like a turbo engine on fire, but it didn't seem to wake anyone. I waddled my way to the kitchen and turned on the light. It was blinding, but it worked.

"Okay, at least now I can see. Now to find the cups."

*BzzzZZzzz...*

"Oh great. The lights went out. Damn it."

Just then a white... spirit... thing jumped out in front of me.

"AHHHH!!" I fell on my butt. "WHO ARE YOU?"

A bunch of them started appearing around the first spirit, and started moving in circles. The kitchen disappeared around me, leaving me in a black void, with the spirits bioluminescence being the only light source.

"Okay guys, very funny circus act. Now LET ME GO BACK TO BED!!" I didn't care about the drink anymore. But then things got even worse. They started to move closer to me. Closer and closer they crept, leaving me claustrophobic. They started up a chant.

"You are evil. You will kill everyone."

They repeated this over and over again, while still moving closer and faster. At this point I was cowered in a ball on the ground, begging for all this to stop. I wished I could have stayed in bed. Then they started to speak words.

"Kill everyone. Make sure you're not suspected. If they find out you are the killer, you die. Succeed, and we will help you."

This sentence locked in my brain for some reason. Why? I didn't want to kill my friends. Who would want to do that?

Just then, the spirits departed, leaving me back in an empty kitchen.

"At least the lights are on."

My head started to hurt. I felt dizzy. My vision was spinning. Then... it stopped. But... something was...

...different.

"I will kill them. I will kill everyone. I won't let you down."

"heh heh heh..."
