Crew-postor (Among Us)

Chapter 8: Accusation

I wondered who was that observant to see blood near the vents. It was white- I mean S. I hated how the way she talked resembled Sophie so much, "but don't get me wrong, I didn't know how to get into the vent."

"So the body was dragged into the vent then?" Security2 had assumed.

"Yeah, I didn't see anyone near the office at the time so...."

"Well, at least know that there is the Impostor and the crew-postor now."

"Skip."

After the meeting ended, I hid at the storage to fake my tasks, since I didn't feel like doing any.

"Veg, what are you doing here?"

I whipped around to see S, "You seem more introverted lately. I know it must be hard for you. After all, those two got your friend, Berry, killed on the Skeld. But you're not alone here. My best friend Sophie got killed there too. We are all seeking revenge here."

A lump formed in my throat. I didn't expect Sophie and Berry to have friends working here. 

"Yeah...thanks for the comfort. But I really need some time alone." I lied.

"What if the impostor comes and kills you?" S seemed really concerned. She seemed way better than Sophie. I kind of took a liking to her.

"I'll be fine, this wall of books will be helpful in hiding me," I assured.

S took one last look at me before leaving the storage to do her tasks.

The reactor sabotage went off. I might as well help them, as I didn't want to be blown into bits before managing to escape. I sprinted towards the laboratory and into the decontamination with the handy miniature map guiding me. This time I knew better, and wasn't fazed by the fog anymore. As the other door slid open, I placed my palm on one sensor while Kyogi placed hers on the other. The alarm stopped going off.

Just as I was about to head back, the alarm sounded again. But it was in a different tone. The lights also flickered alternatively between red and white. A dead body was reported.

Security1 cried and sobbed at the cafeteria table. Security2 was dead. "MY BROTHER IS DEAD. I TURNED AROUND FOR A SECOND AND HE'S DEAD." Once again, as much as I feel for that guy, it doesn't change the fact that he looked dumb while crying in a suit. Once again, so unprofessional.

Unlike Sophie, S didn't seem to have the ability to read people's emotions. She protectively stood beside me and told everyone, "We need to find the impostor here. Where was the body found?"

Security1 sobbed and pointed in the direction of the Y-shaped hallway, "Greenhouse. I watered the plants, turned around and saw him dead."

"Huh. I saw Ca- Veg at storage doing the watering can. I didn't see you near that room, so how could you water the plants at o2 if you didn't go to storage? Also, the reactor had gone off. Instead of running there like the rest of us, you were at greenhouse?" Dhee asked Security1 aggressively. Luckily no one seemed to notice her small mistake. That nearly cost us.

Security1 turned pale, "WHAT, I THOUGHT THE OTHERS WERE ABOUT TO FIX THE REACTOR-"

"And you turned for one second. Nobody could ever kill that fast. It seemed like you had done it instead." Dhee was really backing Security1 into a corner.

"WHAT. NO. I WAS JUST EXAGGERATING!"

"Yeah, Security1 is tripping here. It's true I didn't see him in storage. I only saw Veg. Security1 is probably the impostor. All we have to do is to catch the crew-postor afterwards and we are safe." S concluded.

The vote was decided. All nine of us voted Security1 out while Security1 voted for Dhee (Or Dede). Kyogi and FriedRice dragged Security1 out to the open vent at the balcony and tossed him outside. Security1 screamed as he fell through the puffy clouds.

Security1 was not an impostor.
