Nights of Hell | A roblox flicker story

Chapter 5: Defended

Alicia's POV:

The lights went back on. I was alive, thank god. But something HAD happened. I heard someone scream. Actually in total three people did, I assume.

I looked beside me.

"Colleen?"

She had curled up into a ball, eyes shut. I suppose I can count on her not to be the murderer. Because someone, I have no idea who, was targeted in our very room we hid in.

Her eyes opened slowly, and then widened.

"Are you alright? Were you attacked?"

Colleen paused. She looked confused.

"Targeted? No, I would know if I was."

Alright, she wasn't almost killed. Or possibly killed.

"Let's go, see who died," she whispered.

We left our safe spot and went into the living room.

Charlotte sat, writing. Kai was sleeping on the couch. Alab and Cash seemed to be looking for the body. Mason just looked at the light, almost as if in a trance. Jian was trying to work the TV. Quinn ran up to us.

"Have you seen Mary? I don't know where she is!" she asked, a hint of terror in her voice. I knew what she was thinking.

Maybe Mary was dead.

"Perhaps she is in the closet?" Colleen suggested.

I decided to be the one who went in first. Oh my gosh. The gore.

Mary was pinned to the wall opposite the door with a knife. Blood flowed down her lifeless face and onto the ground, where it met with someone else's.

Thiago lay on the ground, another knife through his chest. It looked as if he had been stabbed multiple times.

"I found the bodies!" I yelled. Soon everyone gathered.

Marley choked.

"This is as brutal as that Dash guy's death!" she cried.

"I somewhat agree," Charlotte replied. "That w-"

"I just feel like adding in," The speaker suddenly cut in, "This was the assassin's work. The murderer's target..... She was protected. Also, you forgetting to check their journals?"

I left and quickly returned with the boy's and girl's journals.

"I will start with Thiago's journal. It says the following: 'Hello kiddos. I am a twin with Mary. She explained to me what this role is about.... I assume I will not last long! If I had to be suspicious of one person, it would be Marley. I hope Good Team wins! Signing off, Thiago'"

"Can I read out the other one?" Charlotte asked.

"Alright"

"Here it is: 'Hi! I'm Mary. Im one of those twins, with Thiago. He doesn't seem bad, I think he is cool. I'm sussing Quinn, I get bad vibes from her. Good luck!'"

There was a yawn from behind us. "What did I miss this time?"

I turned around. "Lara!" Mason cried, and smiled. "Lucky you, you missed all the death!"

She had her hands somehow clutched over her neck, but not to choke herself.

"Excuse me?" she asked, looking tired.

"What? Nothing bad happened to you?"

She removed her hands, and there was a bandage.

Fairly red with blood, I figured.

"You were the murderer's target?!" Charlotte yelled.

"Exactly. So I am not that lucky"

"Chop chop! Discuss who you think is evil!" The speaker called.

I looked at Colleen.

"Neither me or Colleen. We hid under the bed, unknowingly together"

"Oh, so that was you?" Lara said.

"Look, I am really suspicious of Jian" Kai said softly.

"Why would you ever think that?!" he shouted.

"Viola said you or Coll. Alicia and Lara have proof it isn't her. Plus you are a jerk anyway"

"That's useless!!" He screamed.

Darn it, was he gonna have a tantrum or what?

Quinn sighed. "Raise your hands if you wish to vote Jian," she said.

In fact, only Jian didn't raise his hand.

"Its settled then."

Just under an hour of near enough silence, the speaker cried "Alright! Voting time!~"

It didn't take long.

"The person with the most votes is Jian! He will now be removed!"

As he faded away, yelling insults, I couldn't help but feel horrible. What if he was innocent?

Now someone would read his journal to us.
