"Hey, did you find anything?" A voice asks as you turn around. Nyx Noxina, one of your guests, walks up to you, noticing that something is in your hand. "Oh this? Yeah, I found it sitting on the ground here." You explain as you show off the machete you found while exploring the basement.
"You know, we could really use that. Maybe we could cut a rope or something...help us scale down the mountain if worse comes to worse and there's no other way off." She explains, as another guest, Jin Bestus sees the dialog exchange and notices the machete. "Hey!" he shouts out when he runs up to you both.
"You know, I know a friend that could really use that." Jin says as you and Nyx look at each other.
"Who?" You both ask, Jin responds. "Albert. Since he's out there by himself keeping watch, he could probably really use that." He answers, as Nyx shakes her head. "Dude, Albert's a strong guy, and I'd be surprised if he didn't have a weapon already. This thing could really help us in getting off the mountain."
The two argue more as a screech is heard outside, followed by the sound of a scream.
"If it's all the same to you guys, I'll hold onto this for now." You say as you take the machete with you, much to the dismay of the other two as you each make your way out of the basement and out of the lodge.
"What's going on?" You ask, as Cain Deckerson points up. "Something's got Rass!" he shouts as you look up. You see a winged creature holding a struggling Rass D. Natone, as something comes out of his pockets.
"Incoming!" Cain shouts as everyone moves out of the way of the falling object. You each walk over to discover what looks to be a knife on the ground. "Is that...blood?" Sarah Smol asks, as Vidi Luna looks confused. "But from wh--" she starts off, as everyone has a quick flashback.
"Let me go, I'm telling you it wasn't me!" Kyorgia screamed out as the friends had held her and tied her up. "If it wasn't you, then who was it?" Colby had asked, as Kyorgia struggled to get free. "I don't know! I told you that I was out searching for my phone that I'd dropped when we ran back in after that weird fire! And I'd gotten here just before you and Sarah, so I couldn't have been anywhere near Eva or Gary!"
"You're lying, I saw you go back into the house!" Sarah shouted as Kyorgia sighed. "Yes, because I thought I might have dropped it inside."
Colby sighed. "Look, I'm sorry Kyorgia, but you're the only lead we've got right now. So just sit back, you're safe with us until we get off this moun--" he had said before he was interrupted by the sudden pitch black of the lights going out, followed by the scream and the lights coming back on.
Alive only moments ago, she had now laid there dead, covered in a pool of blood with a share of knife wounds throughout her body.
Now it had all made sense. The knife that had fallen out of Rass' pocket was the same knife. Had he chosen to keep it on him out of fear of it being found? As some sort of trophy? He had plenty of time to hide it or remove the evidence, and the only thing not doing so had done had pointed out that he was clearly the psychopath.
Rass let out another scream as the Wendigo screeched, and with little effort split him in half as blood came raining down, tossing his discarded body and leaving quickly.
The friends were terrified at what they'd just seen, but there was a sense of relief knowing that at least one of their troubles was over. But something else was bugging some of them deep down. Kyorgia was stabbed numerous times, not just a couple. What would Rass had to have gained from that? And he didn't seem like a killer in the first place, so was this all really what it had seemed?
Uneasy, the friends made their way back inside together, shuffling back into the living room.
Broddring Empire, one of the Psychopaths, was killed.
"Hey guys, you might want to come here..." a voice calls out as the friends rush towards the back area. They're met with another friend, Alfred Zemas, as he points to the pool. Colby walks over and lifts up the tarp covering the pool. Floating there is another dead body, that of one of the guests, Robin Rolson.
"Robby, no!" a voice calls out as another guest, Hannah Montana runs over, before being stopped by Alfred. "Let me go!" She demands, as Alfred hugs her.
"Wait...is that Hannah Montana? What the actual fuck? How did we not even take notice that she was even here?" Sarah Smol inquires, as the others shrug. Colby pulls Robin towards him and turns him over. "Well...I'd guess he's been here for a few hours." Colby states as Sarah walks up. "But who did this?" she asks, as Colby shakes his head.
"I think this one was an accident." He notes some of the bruises that looked to have been caused from Robin having tripped on something, and then points out the blunt wound on Robin's head. "I think he was out here looking around, slipped on something and hit the ground before falling into the pool, hitting his head on the way end. The tarp probably slipped itself over him as he went down, giving him no way out when he woke up and eventually drowned." Colby explained.
"That's...quite an analysis there Mr. Detective." Elliot points out as Sarah walks up to him and kisses him. "That's what happens when you watch all those detective shows, you start to think like them." Sarah jokes as everyone lets out little laugh, before turning back to Robin.
"So what should we do with Robin?" Alfred asks, as Colby sighs. "Well, nobody did this, so maybe we should put him back so if the cops come, they won't be suspicious? It's not like we can bury him right now when there's some fucking flying chicken up there pecking us all out one by one." Sarah explains as Cain raises an eyebrow. "Interesting way to describe that thing...but I agree. And he's floating peacefully there now, so he's getting that at least." he says as the others mumble in agreement, and put everything back the way it was before shuffling back inside.
Grand Land of BLarg, known as Robin Rolson, a Friend, suffered a tragic accident due to inactivity, and was found dead.
It's time for another Team Discussion folks! You have two people dead, and remembered how the previous person had died. Time to consider the evidence again, and find the rest of the killers before it's too late for you all.
We'll Split Up again on Thursday, February 18th at 1PM.
