POV: Red
Location: The Skeld
Current Task: Wires
Current Mood: Pissed

I walked to Electric, opened the panel in the back and started to connect the colors. Pink to pink, blue to blue. Why can't White and Brown do these correctly? Its been two hours and I haven't seen them even try to do their tasks. I've had my suspicions of them ever since HQ informed us our carrier got hijacked by two imposters. They couldn't do tasks and would kill us regular crew until no one was left. It's had everyone on edge. Now I prefer to stick to myself. It's safer and I can observe at a distance.

When I was done, I closed the panel and was about to walk away when I heard something metal clang behind me. I turned slightly to see Pink crawling out of the vent, staring straight at me.
"Oh, hey Red. Wanna see this cool trick I can do?" I didn't take a chance and started booking it to the emergency button. I heard the maniac behind me, cackling. Running through Storage, I toppled a few boxes stacked to try and slow them down. When I skid to a stop at the button, I pressed just in time to see pink swinging a knife at my head.

*EMERGENCY MEETING*
*Red*
*Teleported 10 entities*

Everyone was around the table now. No way Pink would take the chance to kill me.
"What happened?" Blue asked, looking at me.

"Alright, listen, Pink vented and was chasing me with a freaking knife in their hands. I don't know about you, but we should just throw them out of the airlock now."

"What?! Pink, do you have anything to say?" Everyone turned to Pink, who was still beside me.

"I-I didn't do anything! It was Red! T-They tried to murder me! But when I got to the button, they pressed it first to blame me!" I scoffed.

"Well, blaming each other won't get us anywhere. What were you two doing?" Green asked, crossing their arms.

"I was is Electrical doing wires, since White didn't finish it last time." I said. White shrugged their shoulders.

"Brown was in there too. I remembered I had to go to medbay to collect test samples." Brown nodded.

"Right, i was asked by Yellow to follow them to reactor. Pink, what were you doing?"

"I was in the security with Purple, checking the cameras."

"Purple, can you confirm?"

"Yeah, I was in there. Well, I was in there for a little bit, saw Pink there and left to do a task in Reactor. Then I walked back in and Pink was gone. I just assumed they left."

"Or vented." I murmured.

"I did hear a commotion in I think storage." Blue said. "I was in admin downloading some files."

"That would be me trying to get Pink to stop chasing me to kill me." I said, pointing at Pink.

"Reds lying! They tried to crush me with the storage boxes!" Pink yelled. Brown sighed.

"Purple, you said you walked back in Security. Did you check the cams again?"

"Uh, nope. When I saw Pink was gone I went to Upper Engine and saw Orange there. Then the meeting was called."

"Orange?"

"Yeah, I can confirm. If you're wondering I was filling the engine." Brown nodded, then turned to look at Black.

"Black, you've been awfully quiet."

"Hey, don't look at me. I was in Weapons the whole time. The cannons need to be replaced, can't hit a single thing."

"Yeah, I past Black a couple times while making rounds. I can vouch for him." Green said. I then thought of something.

"Blue, you said you heard a commotion in storage. How did you not hear and see me and Pink running down the hallway to cafeteria? You were right there." Blue shrugged.

"I was in the middle of downloading something. When I heard the sound I thought it was someone being rowdy and making a mess."

That doesn't mean you couldn't see us."

"I was looking the wrong way." Now I was suspicious of Blue.

"Well, we can confirm almost everyone, except the two we needed to confirm.." Green said, looking at me and Pink.

"Trust me, it's Pink. They are a knife welding maniac. Don't trust their fake face."

"Where would Pink even hide the knife?" Purple asked.

"Oh, now you're defending them?" I didn't know who to trust now.

"Hey, I'm just asking a question." I looked around the table, no one made a move, yet.

"Hey, HEY!" Brown shouted. I looked next to me to see Pink lunging at me, their knife in hand again. I jumped back, crashing into Yellow who was standing next to me. Pink swiped at me, cutting my arm. Black and Green rushes over and grabbed Pink by their arms. They struggled, but managed to throw Pink in the airlock and lock it. Pink was screaming and under the mask, a nasty long tongue poked out.

"Eject that thing! Hurry!" Brown slammed the button and the airlock was opened, sucking out the imposter into empty space. Good riddance.

*Pink was ejected*
*1 imposter remains*





Wow, this was hard... this was a warmup... I tried to make it as readable as possible. Can you tell who the other imposter is? No? Yea me neither.
I think this was kinda boring, so if you wanna tell me what would make it more exciting, go ahead.
Uh, yeah. Instead of taking an image from the internet, I decided to draw the map and write down how the story will go... cant show you what's to the right cuz that would tell you spoilers but, uh, here
