[Game] Murder in the Pines - Day 7
 
http://www.menewsha.com/img/37965/23...1374dc4b16.png

We all know that Cecilia has gone off to play with BoqBoq and Xeox in time, but the night watch crew don't know that when they overhear that Cecilia has gone missing. Out on a wild goose chase they stumble upon something far more sinister however. A serial killer has been hiding in secret and they're feeling threatened that they are about to be discovered. Can we survive this Halloween night and uncover who the killer is?

Day 7 results will be released after the closing of the event in the meneverse, along with a form to fill out to guess who the killer is and your reasoning why. Feel free to chat throughout the event about your ideas, or what you think about the story so far. Just remember someone may use your info to solve the crime! <3

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...de6c50eb65.png
Riley Chase Turner
The local conspiracy nut who volunteers to be a member of the night watch every chance he can get. He takes the job seriously and even wears the hat that is included in the uniform (though no one else ever does). If there is a theory about it, he's probably heard of it and has some opinion on it.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...958d9ab7be.png
Liza Bethany Lott
Liza prefers to be known as Beth or Bethany than what she considers to be an atrocious first name. She is one of the members of the night watch crew that has volunteered to patrol the streets to keep it safe for Halloween. During the day she has a small hairdresser shop where she gossips with her customers.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...07559492b6.png
Justin Ray Hunter
One of the upper class residents of the town, Justin is a bit of a snob. He hardly ever has a smile on his face and is suspicious of everyone and everything. The truth isn't a thing he believes people use and he scoffs at pretty much everything said to him. Being a member of the night watch is a court assigned project because of his many misdemeanors as a spoiled rich kid.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...5cee85c43e.png
Paige Sandry Turner
The local librarian and conspiracy theorist as well as Riley's sister. Just a touch of prim and proper runs her daily life. At night she sometimes takes on a shift of the night watch though she is usually busy doing other things.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...d6b1a4ed68.png
Lindsey Laura Johnson
Lindsey considers herself to be a fashionista with street smarts. She makes sure her clothes always match and incorporates whatever odd job she's currently interested in. Who knows what's in her purse at any given time, she's always filling it with new things to match her needs and no one is sure if she ever takes anything out. She signed up as a member of the night watch but she hardly ever participates as more than just a member that pays dues.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/1...6b1789df43.png
Jacque Maximillian Stone
Local sports hero. He used to play football professionally, now he just plays pickup baseball games for charity in his off time working for the fire department. When he has days off from being on call at the fire department he volunteers with the night watch.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...0190f69541.png
Johnny Derrick Lake
Runs a cleaning service around town where he takes care of the various businesses like the library, the fire department, and the police station. Helping out those that help the rest of the town. When the town is clean he helps clean up the streets and happily volunteers on the night watch as often as he can.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...dc1f8a7bf5.png
Diana Louise Nile
Diana works at the school in the photography department. She loves developing pictures in the dark room and sharing them in local newspapers and magazines. She helps the night watch out by working on flyers for them and once in awhile taking a shift on herself. Normally she is far too busy in the dark room though to be bothered going out and watching the streets.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...b6589b9caa.png
Artimis Theodore Fiscal
Local fisherman who enjoys relaxing since he doesn't need to work for money. The mansion in town belongs to his father and he is quite content not working. It was pretty much required that he stop being so lazy and be a member of the night watch but he doesn't take the job very seriously. More often than not he gets caught telling bad jokes while he's supposed to be looking out for trouble makers. The night watch doesn't ask him for help very often.

StoryX


-In the emergency room-

Hadsvich walks into the Emeregency Room alone muttering to themselves nervously and trying to keep calm.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...d9c930260f.png Hadsvich: This is an emergency situation! This is the perfect place to be. *nervously* But this is also where the biggest emergencies happen. Like car crashes, and domestic violence and broken bones from falling off ladders at work.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/5...d5a2c8bf7d.pngMysterious Figure: Murders.
Hadsvich gasps and let out a scream running for the doors. The serial killer is faster.




http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: *Pours some water on top of Riley and wakes him up.* Where is Beth?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: Beth? What? *he sits up groggily.*
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: Your hat was found in a pile of your friends with a note about how to find Beth alive. Where is she?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: What?! No, I didn’t do it! *he touches the top of his head where the hat is missing.* Awww man, now I’m out of uniform.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: *driliy* I’m pretty sure you’re the only one that follows dress code anyways. Now focus, where is Beth.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley:Last thing I remember was going into the gents room with her and some others. I think Justin was there. *he rubs his head trying to think back* Maybe someone else. I don’t remember.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: *dripping with sarcasm* I guess it’s good that we’re at a hospital. It sounds like you have a concussion. Stay put and I’ll be right back with a doctor.

She hurries inside to go search out a doctor. Oddly, like the rest of the town, the halls seem to be deserted. Suddenly screams echo through the halls from the direction of the Emergency Room. However it seems to be harder for others to tell what direction the screams are coming from as people emerge from their searching areas very slowly. Detective Shadami runs straight for the Emergency room and sees a dark boot as the serial killer flees through the ambulance bay doors. Quickly she gives chase and disappears into the night.



-Meanwhile in the central lobby -
People are meeting up, finally called together by the screams or just finishing up their searching and coming to see if anyone else found Beth.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: I haven’t found Beth. Has anyone else found her?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: No sign of her, or anyone else for that matter.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: I actually agree with you for once Lindsey. Where is everyone in town, things are strange right now.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: *stunned* Thanks Paige. Where do you think they’ve all gone?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: *arrives out of breath* Did anyone else hear those screams? I can’t figure out where they came from.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: No, what screams?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: I was over by the Nurse’s station and heard screams coming from this way somewhere.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: Oh no! Did the serial killer strike again?

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: I hope it wasn’t Beth.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: I doubt it was. I found something interesting in the psychology department though. They have some really interesting patients there.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: Why were you digging through some shrinks notes. Those are private.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: I was curious. It’s not like I’m going to do anything with the information I read.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: *Shakes her head disappointed with him* Shame on you Artimis.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: What, this entire night is annoying. I had to have some kind of fun.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: *raises her eyebrow at him* Running in fear isn’t good enough for you?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis:Nope, i would rather be fishing.

Suddenly the conversations are stopped short as Justin helps Riley through the front door.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Paige & Jacque: YOU!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: Get away from my brother!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: Where is my girfriend!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: i’m fine Paige. The Detective said that I just have a concussion.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: I’m just helping him up the stairs. God, do something good and people go insane.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: Where is Beth?!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: I don’t know, have you checked anyones bedrooms lately. Maybe she’s hiding in fear.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: That doesn’t matter, I already figured out I’m not her only boyfrind. But she’s in danger, and you’re the killer remember!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: No he’s not. Riley is! He found out who he wanted had two people, but had turned him down so he went on a crazy murderous rampage.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: No I didn’t! That’s the monster that does that every thirteen years!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: We all know that it’s a human Riley. Your monster guise is up!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: It wasn’t me! I already told the detective that!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: … Where is the detective?

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: She came in here to get me a doctor, and than she never came back. Justin came by and helped me inside to get her. I thought she’d be right here.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: Was that around the time someone screamed?

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: Oh yeah! You know it was. I forgot about that!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: Was it her that screamed?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: *Looking around the room for the detective* Wait a minute… we’re still missing people!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: Why are you all sitting around arguing if someone has been screaming!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: How about telling us the reason YOU have been missing for an hour!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: I woke up with a headache at the school and wandered this way to get it checked out, and I found Riley out front.

As they all continue to bicker they take a look in the emergency room and figure out the likely location that the screams had come from. Artimis points across the room at the ambulance bay doors.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: Look! Bloody footprints! Finally a helpful clue after this boring night.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: Boring night? This has been an exciting night, I can’t wait to see what P.S.Herman writes about it. All the secrets getting revealed tonight. Oh the dirty gossip.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: What makes you think that dirty rag article is going to even have anything about tonight in it.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: Oh, well… P.S.Herman always seems to know everyones dirt. It can’t stay covered forever and something like this night is bound to spread.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: if there’s anyone left to hear it…

On that grim note they take off following the footprint trail down the street where it leads to the school’s front doors.The trail gets blurred and heads off in multiple directions.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: I guess we split up again and follow the trail. Artimis I’m going with you.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis:Whatever, fine by me.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige:My innocent brother and I will go together than. *glares at Jacque*
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: Fine, I’ll go with Johnny. *glares at Paige*
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana:*shrugs* Whatever, let’s go Justin. We have to find Beth after all.

Location: Hospital
Psychologist Wing
You find a note on one of the patients, sadly the name is blacked out because of patient doctor confidentiality. It reads “She seems a model citizen, helping to bring beauty to her secretive subject matter and is really popular as a result. However I fear that the dark beauty in her work is not actually an artistic flare on things. I believe that the subject matters she focuses on may be real, and that she is not falsifying the situations she displays. I have studied her for years, but I only have my intuition still. Something does not seem right with this patient though she hides it well.”
(+1 Raffle Ticket)


Nursery
There are rows of glass crib carts throughout the room. It’s a bit eerie walking between them. Every single one is empty which isn’t what you were expecting. Though maybe you should have been expecting it with the emptiness of the entire town. Finally you riffle through a couple blankets for a sign of life and as you pick one up some coins fall out and clatter to the floor.
(+400 gold)

http://www.menewsha.com/images/items...87449fea21.gif

Surgery
You don’t see any sign of Beth but there is a pile of gold sitting on a table, knowing how much money surgeons make, no one is going to miss it.
(+800 gold)

Emergency Room
You have joined the graveyard – See story
(+1 Raffle Ticket)

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/f...7ca19074ce.png

Padded Room
The moment you step into the room you wonder if you’ve gone insane. Laying all over are baskets of carrots, and food, and bunnies. You half expect the bunnies to mutate into something more terrifying when you realize that everything is soft squishy and fake. What did someone think they were the Easter bunny when they got stuck in here?
(Easter Basket)

http://www.menewsha.com/images/items...649889ae55.gif


Intensive Care Unit
You find a DNA test results and letter page that says that another heir to the Fiscal fortune has been found because of the emergency blood transfusion that Mr. Fiscal needed to live. His son wasn’t a perfect match because of blood type but they had managed to find another, but it would take revealing the family connection if he wanted to have the process done. A return letter confirms that he would like to forgive the families past grievances and welcome the new heir back to the family if he were to agree to the transfusion. “Please let me know their name so I may speak to them myself.”
(+1 Raffle Ticket)


Nurse’s Station
You can’t find Beth at the Nurse’s station but you find some nifty scrubs laying on the desk. Hey it’s Halloween, maybe you could go as a nurse! Everything you need for it is laying right here for the taking!
(Clean Teeth)
http://www.menewsha.com/images/items...2cc685047c.gif


Pharmacy
You find a note. “If they’re complaining about non existent pain to much. Just show them this!” You gulp at the size of the needle and decide the best course of action is to get it away from the hospital so that it can’t be offered to people.

I love going out trick or treating but this business with Cecilia going missing and these mysterious noises in the woods, not to mention the graveyard filling up, has put quite a damper on that whole plan. So I will be raffling off the super amazing costume that I pulled together after the event is over.

If you don't want to get in on the raffle you can instead turn your tickets in at a rate of 200 gold per raffle ticket. It's almost like a free refund! How cool is that?! [sup]



The CostumeX



IMPORTANT: If you want to trade in your raffle tickets for gold, please send me (Shadami) a PM and let me know. If I don't hear from you by the end of the final round (Day 7), I will assume that you are content being included in the raffle for my awesome spider witch costume.

  • 1 raffle ticket for joining the graveyard
  • 1 raffle ticket for finding a clue to solve the mystery.

Points TallyX

Day 1 StoryX



http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: Hey did you hear that? Little Cecilia has gone missing, I wonder what could have happened to her! That little girl loves candy, she wouldn't be missing now of all times.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/6...ffb1d1815d.png Beth: *gasps* Do you think she got kidnapped?!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: No couldn't be! I bet she got abducted by aliens... or worse.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: Don't be ridiculous. Aliens? Pssh. The aliens last visit was a long time ago except when BoqBoq comes by to bring us new items occasionally. They wouldn't kidnap Cecilia, it had to be something else that got her.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.pngRiley: I once heard about this crazy flying bat thing... or maybe it was a minotaur. . .
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: You really are trying to come up with the craziest possibilities, aren't you?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.pngRiley: *ignoring Justin* No it was definitely some horned creature of the night that goes on a rampage every 13 years. I remember that being said.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/6...d03f450917.png Beth: *nervously* A rampage of what?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: *clueless to the interruptions* They feast on meat and come out during full moons to howl endlessly until their prey is frozen in terror.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/6...d03f450917.png Beth: Th-That's just a scary story you're making up, right? Because of Halloween?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: And no one has ever gotten close enough to tell what it is, but it has been seen charging through the woods and flying through the skies hunting its prey every 13 years when it goes crazy and attacks the unsuspecting -

They get interrupted as a distant howl can be heard and all three jump
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/4...bb86b29adc.pngBeth: Ma-Ma-Maybe we should go get some backup. To look for Cecilia, just in case? *swallows nervously*
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: You know... I think I've heard this story before. We need to check the woods for scratches on the trees. You know... just to see if one of these creatures is even around. Not that I think it’s real or anything.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...0646c72ac0.png Riley: *suddenly looking anxious themselves* Yeah let's go get backup. I don't think our little night watch crew here is big enough for this task. That monster could be anywhere!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/4...bb86b29adc.pngBeth: *trying to be brave* Yeah, let's go get some others and find Cecilia. She needs our help!
The three night watch crew members go off in separate directions and meet up at the border of the woods each with two new able bodies to join them in the search. Riley brought along his sister Paige and his friend Lindsey, though the two are obviously clashing with each other already. Shortly behind them Liza arrives with her boyfriend Jacque, and very close friend Johnny. Justin however has yet to arrive with his two friends.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.pngRiley: Where is Justin? Doesn't he know how serious this matter is?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: *rolling her eyes and pulling out a book to read by the light of the street lamp* Yes, my dear brother, I'm sure that spoiled brat knows just how serious it is to go hunting after one of your monsters.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: Oh good, then he should be here soon.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: *snickering quietly to herself* Yes I'm sure Justin is excited to be running through the woods to dirty his clothes.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: *glances over the top of her book to raise an eyebrow at Lindsey* Oh and you are ready to go tromping through the woods yourself dear?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: *With a pointed glare at Paige* Of course I am Paige. I've brought the proper protection against such an outing, but a little girls life is far more important isn't it.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: *mumbles almost inaudibly* Like you know what proper protection is.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: 'Course she does. She's wearing it ain't she?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: *raises an eyebrow and opens her mouth to respond and just shakes her head and goes back to her book. *
Justin arrives on the scene out of breath with his two friends Diana and Artimis.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: I had a hard time finding two people that wanted to help with this goose chase.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: Who says it will be a goose chase?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: Justin doesn't believe me when I said that Cecilia might have been taken by a creature of the night.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: Right... If you're the one leading this crew I can see why it's a goose chase then. Guess I'll tag along, better than sitting around reading more P.S. Herman gossip articles I suppose.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/a...0ed5264138.png Paige: You read P.S.Herman? What do you think of them?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: ladies we don't have time for this. We need to go hunt a monster!
The nine members of the mismatched rescue crew and all their Menewshan friends head into the woods and find signs that there indeed are scratch marks on trees and large portions of the leaf covering pushed aside like something was dragged through the woods. The size doesn't indicate a child, but many of the members can feel hair sticking up on the back of their necks as they delve deeper and deeper into the woods where they stumble upon a forlorn looking cabin. It's log walls are thick like it has been there for many years, and the cobwebs and moss all over its walls and roof tell the story that it has also been sitting in disrepair and in need of some tender loving care for many years as well.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: Do you all see that? *points to the front porch*
They all look. Cautiously they walk up under the small lantern swinging from the porch roof in the wind casting eerie shadows on the porch like a flickering flame, to see an orange Halloween candy bowl that looks completely out of place in the surrounding area. It has only eight pieces of brand new candy sitting in it like someone has been here recently.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: Whatcha'll think? Should we head in?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: Yes, I think we should split up and explore. Make sure we're in decent sized groups though just in case.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: Well I'm going with my sister and Lindsey. I brought them on this monster hunt, I shall protect them!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: Seriously Riley... A candy bowl says human not monster. But fine whatever, seems like a good plan. Split into the groups of who we brought with us, night watch crew leading. The rest of you, decide where you're going.

Location: Abandoned Cabin
Firepit
You decide the cabin is just not safe to go into. Its old, its creaky. It’s just plum terrifying! The nice abandoned fire pit seems a much safer choice to you. While everyone is inside exploring and getting terrified running into all the massive number of cobwebs likely to be in there, you are content to sit by the fire pit where a convenient pile of wood is sitting to start a fire with. Anyone bring a bucket of water so we can put this fire out when we’re done? No. Better take the fire wood with you than just in case you need to start a fire somewhere else.
(Cozy Cabin)

http://images.menewsha.com/items/thu...3541a46a97.gif


Bedroom One
It is a pretty simple room with a sweet little round carpet covering the wooden floor at the end of the bed. But there really is nothing interesting going on in here. The most interesting feature is a little cedar chest under a window overlooking the windowed porch that looks like it would be a wonderful place to sit and read a book and maybe talk to the people through the window sitting at the table below it. If only it weren’t so dark and spooky and covered in grime like the rest of the cabin.
(Comfy Corner)

http://www.menewsha.com/images/items...21ef668f32.gif


Bedroom Two
A bed, a bedside table, and a dresser. That’s it? You’re completely disappointed in the boringness of this room, it’s obvious from first glance that you are not going to find anything at all. Grudgingly you check the drawers and the mattress that doesn’t even have sheets on it, and finally with a groan, thinking ‘this is hopeless’, you kneel down and take a look under the bed. Much to your surprise there is a pile of gold just sitting there ripe for the picking. No one can say it’s stealing if no one but those in the room taking their share knows about it right?

Living Room
You follow Artimis, Diana, and Justin into the huge living room space. Searching for clues by reaching into the poofy arm chair cushions and searching along the bookshelves lining the walls around the fireplace. Nothing seems to be coming up until someone searches the fireplace and pulls out a feather duster covered in soot. Who would leave something flammable inside a fireplace? That’s so odd.
(+1 Raffle Ticket)
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/3...a60563b45b.png


Windowed Porch
Riley, Paige, Lindsey and you explore the windowed porch which is disappointingly empty. There’s a table, a futon, and a bookshelf and a couple lamps. Paige as the librarian that she is feels compelled to poke around the bookshelf where she finds an old book with many pages dog eared, titled “The Migratory Habits of The Horned Lunar Shadow.”
(+1 Raffle Ticket)
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...d9acdf77d7.png


Basement
Beth, Johnny, and Jacque decide to explore the basement, mostly on the encouragement of Johnny since he isn’t afraid of the spiderwebs that both of his companions keep jumping at. However what is discovered in the basement is far more terrifying than just a few spiderwebs. It’s thousands of spiders and they’re absolutely crawling with them. You and everyone else decide to just hightail it out of there before you have to step foot in the creepy crawly mess. Though a couple still manage to tag along for the ride back up the stairs.

2nd Floor Bedroom
The upstairs bedroom is really cool with its balcony landing overlooking the living room, but there isn’t anything of interest in it. You poke around in the bathroom and the closet and then growing bored check inside the drawers of the dresser where you find some loose change and nothing else. Not even linens! You pocket the change because it seems highly unlikely anyone is ever going to miss it.

Day 2 StoryX


Splitting into their designated, or rather decided on groups, everyone wanders off to the rooms they have decided to explore for clues. Though hopes are not high that there will be any at all since it feels like a wild goose chase.
-In the Kitchen-
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/4...f940e94d7e.png Star2000Shadow:Think there's any candy in here to make up for being out on a wild goose chase in the woods?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e387c62fd6.png Damia Flagg: Oh probably not. That candy bowl out front was the only thing here not covered in dust.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/6...3ab204a235.png Xo~GREMLIN~oX: *opening fridge* oh eww. This stinks. It hasn't been cleaned in years by the look of it.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...8fadb9ed66.pngMidian: Darn I really could have gone with a bite to eat.

*Hear a door squeaking behind them*

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/4...f940e94d7e.png Star2000Shadow: hey what was –
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e387c62fd6.png Damia Flagg: what was what?... Star? *turns around and gasps*
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/f...af909febe4.pngMysterious figure: Looking for food in a dirty old kitchen is bad for your health you know.



-on the basement stairs-
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: *looking very green in the face* I think I’m going to be sick. *flees back up the steps.*
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/4...bb86b29adc.png Beth: No wait!

Nervously looking down at the massive amounts of spiders all over the basement walls and floor.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...a52fbf7b33.png beth: Well I still have you right Johnny? You’ll protect me from those nasty bugs.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: Actually love, I’ve cleaned a million things that have been just filthier than a mudbath in a pig stye. But nothing has ever been as revolting as this.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/4...bb86b29adc.png Beth: *crestfallen* Well now what?

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: I’m thinking we just scedaddle on out of here and help them look around upstairs.

-on the covered porch-

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: This is stupid Riley. Why did you have to drag us out here into the woods searching by flashlight. *jumps as a shadow crosses the room*
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: Oh calm down Lindsey. *flipping through a book she found on the shelf* Haven’t you noticed this giant glass window looking into the living room? It’s just someone walking in front of one of their flashlights. *turns a page*
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: How would you know with your nose always stuck in one book or another?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: I know because I am aware of my surroundings unlike some people.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: Oh yeah? What’s that supposed to mean!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: It means that you’re an idiot when it comes to anything but the money in your fashionable pocket.

The argument is interrupted by a distant crash coming from the direction of the kitchen and the group dashes into the main part of the building running towards the kitchen.




-In the living Room-

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: Basement is an absolute waste of time, what’s going on up here?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: Just a little bit of cleaning
Waves the feather duster that gets snatched away by Justin.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: Hey man, I was using that!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: You were just trying to come up with some stupid joke I’m sure.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: My jokes are not stupid. They’re classy.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/6...d03f450917.png Beth: Actually they can be pretty terrible Artimis. Sorry.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: *rolls eyes* Critics the lot of you!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: *waving the feather duster in front of the flashlight to make spooky shapes on the wall* Ooooooo, I’m the spooky goose of the woods out to kidnap and eat people.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: Cut it out Justin. You are just an idiot with no sense of humor.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: *puts the feather duster down scoffing* I have a sense of humor, I just never hear anything funny.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: *sniding* Or have anything to smile about with dear daddy getting mad at you all the time. Is your fortune cut off from you yet?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: Woah, Justin is that true? Is the big hunter cutting you off from the kills? *snorts at his own bad joke*

The crashing from the kitchen is much louder to this group and everyone spins around to look as people come out from their searching areas and everyone goes dashing for the kitchen at once. In horror they look at a door open to the outside where a stack of cans have seemingly been blown over by the wind knocking over a broom which hit a bunch of glass dishes that shattered to the floor… around a pile of bodies. Everyone in the front is frozen in horror at the sight of their fallen comrades while those in the back are trying to push forward to see what’s going on.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: Well looks like there is something in these woods after all. A killer.




After a quick debate, the remainder of the searchers flee out of the cabin, back through the woods, and to the police station where they pound on the door foolishly not just opening it in their panic.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: Come on, let us in! We’ve got something important to tell you!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: Yeah, like, some of our friends have been completely murdered and we need protection!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: Open the door in the name of the law and my father owning everything!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: Oh seriously? Move over you idiots.

Diana shoves everyone out of the way and yanks open the door and they all stumble into the bright light of the front police station lobby. After some frantic explaining they catch the attention of the detective about to go off duty for the night to get in some trick or treating. Because you’re never too old to trick or treat! Or at least dress up in an awesome stylish costume and give away candy. Or maybe just go out to a party in a barn to celebrate the spooky night with your other costumed adult friends that also don’t really have a sweet tooth.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/5...d00df11288.png Shadami: I was just about to head off to a costume party, what seems to be the problem?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: *bluntly* People have been murdered.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/5...d00df11288.png Shadami: Oh really? *looks around at the collected group and raises an eyebrow.* I’d like to talk to all of you individually. If you’d like you can look around the station.
Shadami laughs lightly at the excitement on some of the faces of the Menewshans who seem excited to be able to explore a police station.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/5...d00df11288.png Shadami: I’m not surprised to hear that their is a killer on the loose. I’ve been hunting one myself, but the killings stopped for awhile. Now tell me what you know.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: *excitedly* Oh me first! I think it’s a creature of the night with giant claws that hunts every thirteen years!

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/5...d00df11288.png Shadami: *raises an eyebrow* Very well I’ll start with you.

Location: Police Station
Break Room
Everyone not being interviewed is chilling in here when they’re not wandering around the building. No one is staying place very long due to being a little antsy after the murders in the woods. Those of you choosing to actually stay in the break room though poke into cabinets looking for free snacks. Maybe a plate of brownies or something with a “Shadami’s Do not touch” label on it would be nice. Jackpot! In one of the cabinets is a jar with some Lollys and a sign that says “take one!”

Interrogation Room
You pretend to be a detective interrogating someone like they do in those awesome crime shows. It’s a really boring empty room so you have to entertain yourself somehow. Than you let your attention wander to the only thing in the room. A bright orange jumpsuit. Hmmmm, maybe it would be fun to take that for a super realistic cop and robbers dress up halloween party sometime. You’re sure they won’t miss one jumpsuit.

http://www.menewsha.com/images/items...50c5035bea.gif


Observation Room
All these buttons and knobs are super cool! It must be really fun to sit back here watching people interrogate perps in the interrogation room, recording every word they say to get a confession out of them. Oh hey what’s this white sheet covering! I bet it's something top secret. You pick it up and are actually disappointed that it’s just a sheet with some holes in it someone left lying around. Did they really think someone was going to be impressed with a basic ghost costume? Psssh…. Of course that’s what you tell yourself as you pocket it to use your self. So simple, so clever!

Captain’s Office
It figures that the Captain’s office would have the most useful thing in it. A generator! On closer inspection though you notice that the tube on it has been punctured and it is slowly leaking out oil. So much for a back up generator, let’s just hope the power doesn’t go out.
(+1 Raffle Ticket)
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/4...5dbfb821ec.png


Main Offices
You poke around in all the desks looking for candy or loose change that won’t be missed. After all you don’t want to actually see the secret files in the desks. You just want to swipe some innocent things that won’t be missed and you aren’t likely to get in any real trouble for. Like finding a penny on the sidewalk, or getting free candy on Halloween! Sadly it doesn’t look like there are any candy givers here. Just loose change.

[FONT="Georgia"][SIZE="3"]Workout Room
Ewwwwww, look at all the sweaty gym equipment! It looks like these get used all the time to keep the police department staff members in fantastic condition to fight crime. Okay, so maybe you’re exaggerating a little bit to yourself. It doesn’t seem to be in terrible shape. Just a little bit of sweaty stink left over and a few coins lying around that must have fallen out of someone's gym shorts.

Surveillance Van
You search the surveillance van and discover a night watch members flyer. A bunch of names are circled but you can’t make out which ones because of a giant coffee stain. It seems like it has been here and looked at often. Are the members of the night watch under surveillance?

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...d80e1f6697.png Superzombiepotatoe: *excitedly. Yeah what happened?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...82957788f8.pngHIM_ROCK: he pulled me over for flipping him the bird.

Suddenly the power in the entire station goes out and startled screams can be heard throughout it.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...891de01592.png Gummybearkisses: hey who turned the lights out?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...d80e1f6697.png Superzombiepotatoe: probably these terrible jokes.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/6...1273968918.png Dragoness129: you want to hear more so the power turns back on?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/5...d5a2c8bf7d.pngMysterious Figure: *dryly* I don't think that's going to work.

*All scream*




-In the lobby-

The power has suddenly gone out in the entire building.


http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: What in the world? That shouldn’t have happened! Give me just one moment and I’ll be right back.
A thump and a curse says that the Detective has run into the desk as she stumbles in the dark looking for her flashlight. Suddenly screams rake the air and the detectives feet pound down the hall opening doors fast to try to get to the cells even as the screaming suddenly ceases. Whipping around the corner she sees that even the lights in the cells that normally glow red to keep an eye on the prisoners are out. Suddenly flashlights catch up to her and fall on the empty cells hallway. Cautiously the frightened group enter the room and find the missing menewshans laying inside individual cells.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/4...bb86b29adc.png Beth: Oh no! Not again!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: *unusually grave* I guess the killer has struck again.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: But how would a giant creature of the night have gotten in here and killed them!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: Because it wasn’t a creature of the night you idiot. It was a person!

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: Oh my goodness! But who would do something like this!?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: *sarcastically*Oh i don’t know. Maybe someone that doesn’t like people and all their secrets.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: Nobody has secrets in this town. P.S.Herman takes care of that.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey:You listen to that drabble? Why just last week they said I was an insufferable know it all that knows nothing. They clearly don’t know what they’re talking about!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: *rolls eyes* Oh yeah and they’re so clearly wrong about that.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: Well of course they are. They’re just a dirty gossip column. None of it is real!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: I beg to differ. The secrets they uncover always turn out to be true.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: You read that garbage?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.pnghttp://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...6c11a94bbd.png Diana & Paige: *angrily* It’s not garbage!

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: I don’t know. It might be. P.S.Herman reported recently that my girlfriend was unfaithful, and that’s a load of garbage, she would never do that to me.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: Really? Who’s your girlfriend. I clean so many places I could probably tell you if they are.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/f...a5db7b3988.png Beth: Could we get out of here. You know… away from the dead bodies.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: *turns flashlight on her face and snickers* Yeah you are looking a little green in the face.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: *Finally interrupting the bickering Menewshans.* I don’t know why the back up generator hasn’t turned on so we need to get somewhere with light that I can continue these interviews.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: We can head to the fire department, and report the power outage while we’re at it. I’m sure my mates will happily take on the job instead of sittin’ ‘round bored.




After quick agreements and some stumbling in the dark the remaining survivors head back out of the building and make for the fire department to report the power outage to get some comforting light in their lives. When they arrive however the fire department seems to have been deserted. The firetrucks are still in the bay, but the entire place seems to be devoid of life. The only thing showing life are moths flickering around the lights.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: What in the world? Where’d they all go?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: I guess we should split up and try to find them. They must be around the building somewhere.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: Just make sure to stick in groups.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: *glares at Paige* As long as I’m not with Paige again, I’m fine with this plan.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...e87a99f1f1.png Paige: *returns the glare* Fine with me.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: I’ll go with ya Paige.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: *smirks* Why thank you Jacque. Such a gentleman. *shooted glare at Paige again over her shoulder*

The group splits up into smaller searching groups with Diana joining Paige and Jacque. Riley looks around desperately and tags along with Lindsey and Justin; leaving Johnny, Artimis, and Beth as the final group. Detetive Shadami turns to the remaining menewshans.


http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: And where are you all heading?




Day 3 ResultsX



http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/4...bb0a51ff3a.png
Location: Fire Department

Break Room
You go into the break room expecting someone at least to be in there followed by Jacque, Paige, and Artimis. There’s a bunch of food around and a big tv if you wanted to take a break and zone out. In fact, that sounds like a great idea to calm your nerves, so you plop down on the couch… and get stabbed for it! Reaching under you, you pull out a pair of silver soccer ball earrings with the letters J.J. carved onto the back of them.
(+1 Raffle Ticket)
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...e7f9529259.png

Bunk House
It seems wrong that even the bunk house is empty like the rest of the building. But when you find a little bit of money tucked into some pillowcases you still feel guilty. You’re pretty sure you saw a vending machine somewhere recently. There’s always a good snack in a vending machine when your stomach is grumbling after a good healthy terrified run through the woods.
(+300 gold)

http://www.menewsha.com/images/items...87449fea21.gif

Kitchen
You can not believe your luck! It looks like someone was recently celebrating a birthday or something and there is a huge cake sitting in the fridge. You grab a slice and quickly devour it. Hmm how did they get the frosting to taste like red velvet cake, but the actual cake like plain vanilla or white cake. Wow! It’s super delicious!
(10th anniversary cake)

http://www.menewsha.com/images/items...3aa1311dde.gif

Dining Hall
You were really hoping for a plate of delicious food to be served here. Or at least find some people eating food but just like the rest of the place there doesn’t seem to be a trace of life in the building. Suddenly you spot something odd. Laying on one of the tables is a lock of blond hair but it feels extremely weird to the touch.
(+1 Raffle Ticket)
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...3a0676c701.png

Radio Room
The radio room is so cool! You almost pick up the mic and call out on it like they do on the tv. At the last second you stop yourself afraid that the police may also be on the same radio frequency and you don’t really want to get arrested for goofing around in the fire department while you’re searching for the missing people. Oh hey look! A jar full of money that says “to give away!” Sweet, you’re here, the fire department shall give it away to you! They’re so kind.
(+800 gold)

http://www.menewsha.com/images/items...87449fea21.gif

Fire Bay
The fire bay is huge and fun to explore. To be honest you were hoping to find a dalmation, and climb up on the fire trucks wearing one of the helmets. Or maybe even playing around with the fire hose and seeing just how strong the water pressure is. You’ve heard its really powerful but you don’t believe it. Sadly the hoses seem to be locked away and you can only find a type of hose you weren’t looking for. Oh well, I guess it’s something right!

Locker Room
It looks like it can get pretty chilly sometimes in the firehouse; a bunch of the lockers have some fantastically warm looking cloaks. Maybe they wet them and use them to help people get out of burning buildings? There are so many of them! They should be okay with one of them going missing, and you can always donate more later.

Day 4 StoryX


-in the weight room-

Some randomly grabbed mules that can’t participate in this game are wandering around in the weight room because you were all smart and avoided the Weight Room

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...dd9d4f7b14.png Pirate Booty: You know maybe it wasn't anyone from our group at all.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/4...76a4629f5b.png Marnie: yeah but who else was at the cabin and the police station. It had to be one of us.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/1...5ca01e3d6f.png Inspiration: *looks around suspiciously* was it one of you.*backs away from everyone*
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/5...d5a2c8bf7d.pngMysterious Figure: Hey watch who you're backing into.
All spin around*
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...dd9d4f7b14.png Pirate Booty: you??! But you're -
Gets cut off as the rest scream and then all quickly fall silent.

-in the Break room-
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: Well you know there was once a wife that didn’t know her husband was a bank robber until he was arrested.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: Yeah so? P.S.Herman is wrong! She wouldn’t be cheating on me!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: I’m just saying. You say these earrings look alot like a pair you gave your girlfriend, but you haven’t brought her in the break room. So what are they doing here huh?

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: I don’t know! But they can’t be hers! Someone else must have gotten the same pair of earrings!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: *shrugs* Two people can know each other without really knowing each other.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: You’re wrong!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige:What about that article P.S.Herman released about you dating a woman named Lisa Jacobs, and how a pair of her engraved earrings with the initials L.J. were found outside another man’s house!

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: Is that where P.S.Herman got her cheating info? What a joke, my girlfriends initials are B. -*stops and looks at her overly interested face.* -
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: Oh please, don’t stop now. Who is she?

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: None of your business. But P.S.Herman’s information is wrong!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: *dryly* P.S.Herman has never been wrong before.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: *standoffish but intrigued* Hmph, well, why so secretive about the identity of your girlfriend?

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: *ignores her*
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: *slightly annoyed* It won’t stay a secret forever. There’s no reason to hide who you love.

-Meanwhile in the dining hall-

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: I wonder if the creature is going to cause another black out here? Hmmm, I wonder how it manages to get inside and knock out the power without us seeing it.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: Oh not this nonsense again Riley. It obviously wasn’t a creature that knocked out the power at the police station.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: Do you think it simply swipes at it with its giant paw? Or does it carefully remove each of the fuses?

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: *rolls eyes* It would have to be a pretty smart creature to pull out the fuses.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: So it clearly claws at it than! Maybe we should go back to the police station and look for evidence of claw marks there!

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: No Riley, you idiot. It’s clearly the work of a human killer. *rubs his eyes annoyed* How did I get roped into this stupid mess.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: That’s easy Justin. You keep getting into trouble and your father made you, and of course you agreed to it so you don’t lose your fortune.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: *annoyed* My father is not going to take my inheritance away from me. *Slyly* You know, I bet one of us is the killer. *Holds up the lock of blond hair they found on the table* I bet this is even a clue to who it is.*looks at Lindsey pointedly. You wouldn’t happen to know anything about what is going on would you?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: *gasps indignantly* Of course I didn’t do anything! How dare you Justin!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: The hair does feel really weird… *gasps* What if the creature is blond and this isn’t hair, its fur!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: For the last time you idiot! It’s a human killer!

*Justin stomps out of the room and a moment later the power flickers out. There is a clattering of weights and Justin can be heard cursing loudly. *

-meanwhile in the locker room upstairs-
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: *poking through the various lockers chuckling* Think these are like closets and people keep skeletons in them?

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/f...a5db7b3988.png Beth: Oh god don’t say that! What if there actually are skeletons in there! All the fire peoples are still missing!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: *Pats Beth reassuringly on the shoulder* Calm down love, I’m sure they just keep their clothes in here when they’re all on duty. *wrinkles nose* Though they need to wash them more often and work a bit harder on keeping things neater.

Suddenly the power goes out and they hear a curse from down the steps. As they flip on their flashlights again and run to the stairs the light turns back on and they find Justin staring at the bodies of more of their fellow searchers who had been exploring the weight room. His mouth is hanging open in shock. Everyone runs into the room from around the building and disbelieving stares greet the scene before them.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: I believe you have some explaining to do Justin.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: *surprised*What? No! I didn’t. They were like this when I came in here. Before the power went out! I swear!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: Answer the Detective Justin. What were you doing in here? Why did you kill all these poor innocent people.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: You guys have to believe me! I didn’t do this!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: I really would have preferred if I had stayed at home in bed. If you knew who the killer was all along Justin did you have to wake me up?

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin:*Angrily* I don’t know who the killer was because it wasn’t me! I knocked over those stupid weights when I stormed into the room and the power went out!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: *faraway look on his face* I had been working on reorganizing my closet myself. It would have been nice to stay there, but Beth needed me out here to chase Riley’s monster.I do often organize my closet though. It’s a wonderful feeling to keep things so nice and tidy. Speaking of nice and tidy Jacque, you and your ‘mates’ really need to work on organizing your lockers better.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: *excitedly pipes up! Yeah that’s right! It couldn’t have been Justin since it was the thirteen year monster rampage! And I had to get you all out here on the watch because I was following orders!

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: Wait, following orders? From who? I thought it was a routine keep the town safe on Halloween night, watch?

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: Oh, i got a call from Jeryck to gather the night watch crew together for the night, and to get as many of them as I could! The rampaging beast signs we found was perfect to get the rest of you lazy butts out of bed to answer Jeryck’s call!

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: Aren’t we missing something rather important here everyone. If you’re all so sure that Justin isn’t the killer, than that means the killer is still here somewhere and we should probably be getting out of here.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: The library is closest, let’s go there!




The group quickly runs to the library where everything seems normal. Shadami shoos everyone inside and stands out front to secure the location. However inside the group takes a collective sharp intake of breath as the tension that was starting to release charges right back in to take ahold of them again. Written on the wall behind the front desk is a message written in red… paint. It says. ”Your Little friend is inside! Come find her!”

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: That has to be about Cessy! We have to go in and find her!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: Shouldn’t we wait for the Detective.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: No time to waste Justin. We need to go in and find Cecilia.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: Yeah what if the thirteen year beast is in there with her!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: *growls in annoyance* A beast can’t write on walls Riley!

Before Justin can argue any more the group splits up and begins to search the library.

Location: Library

Kid’s Room
Bright and cheerful with lots of rainbow colors and smiling suns everywhere as expected for a children’s section of a library, your decision to look for Cecilia here seems really smart. The only thing you find however is a stack of kites that seem to have been part of one last hurrah outdoors event before the snow started falling.
(Go fly a kite)

http://www.menewsha.com/images/items...7f6723510d.gif


Newspaper Room
There are a bunch of magazines and newspapers that have articles from P.S.Herman in them all over the Newspaper Room. One article in particular stands out as your searching that indicates P.S.Herman had been doing some research into the thirteen year rampaging creature Riley was looking into. They believe that it may be the work of a superstitious person or persons that have been staging a rampage every thirteen years, and that no such creature exists. At the bottom of the article it says they have credible information about the creature and that it is far more interesting that a certain fireman is oblivious to the charms his girlfriend J.J is putting out for someone everyone thought was gay. He must be only bisexual if anything because he clearly has some affections for her in return.

One case with a prism on it catches your eye and as you open it to put it in the player to listen to it out of curiosity some gold falls out. Looks like someone thought no one would open the case and discover their hiding place. Well Finders, keepers!

Archives
You don’t find Cecilia so you poke through the old newspaper articles that have been stored in this musty old back room. Shockingly you find an article from November 1st 2004, written a day shy of thirteen years ago. It seems that there was a killer twenty-six years ago, that just disappeared after killing a bunch of people in an old abandoned cabin and than thirteen years later, possibly the same killer, killing more people in the same cabin. This must be where that superstitious creature story came from that Riley is obsessed with.

This room is spotless! It’s super clean and feels well loved and cared for. Not to mention the shelves are piled with book after book. You wander the aisles spotting familiar names of books you’ve read and many new ones that you’ve never heard of. You don’t see any children let alone Cecilia, but you can’t help swiping a few books off the shelf and heading off to find the librarian so you can check them out. Where did Paige get to anyway?

Non Fiction
The books in here are dusty and hardly touched. It seems like the books with the fewest layers of dust are the books on photography and painting. I guess the people in this town are fans of the arts, and not the biographies. You find a little bit of gold sitting on the art books like someone was thanking the artists for reading and hoping to help them not being the infamous “starving artist.”

Day 5 StoryX


-In the Research Room-
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/5...9fa1a07335.png Velvet: Oh god, who even uses a research room anymore?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/f...4f3b5cc5c0.png Salvete:Well when I was in school it was required for final papers.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/5...9fa1a07335.png Velvet: Google isn’t good enough?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/f...4f3b5cc5c0.png Salvete Of course it was, but we had to use at least three actual physical books as well.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/5...9fa1a07335.png Velvet: I mean at least the books in here smell good.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/f...4f3b5cc5c0.png Salvete: Kind of like that new car smell right?
They both take a deep breath to get a whiff of that old book smell.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/5...9fa1a07335.png Velvet: Oh GROSS what is that smell?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/f...4f3b5cc5c0.pngSalvete: It’s metallicy maybe. . . like… like… metal?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/5...9fa1a07335.pngVelvet: That kind of simile is why this research room is helpful.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/f...af909febe4.pngMysterious Figure: Yes, try a thesaurus.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/5...9fa1a07335.pngVelvet: yes exactly…. Wait what?!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/f...af909febe4.pngMysterious Figure: Perhaps try under the word blood. *grins wide and silences Salvete and Velvet.*

-Meanwhile in the archives-
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: *hands the article over to the other menewshans to look over* I knew I had read something about a possible serial killer at one point.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: You’ve got to admit it’s a little exciting though. *wrinkles his nose at the dusty room*
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: *waves off Johnny’s obvious concern about the dusty room.* Later Johnny. *gets her serious face on* Right now it's important to talk theory! Who do you think it could be? If it’s the same killer as in that article we might have a serial killer in town and we could be the ones to solve it!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: Well if it is one of our group, my vote is on Justin. He’s so cranky and standoffish all the time.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige:*purses lips in thought* Yeah you think so? He’s the one who suggested it was one of our group, and everyone was always with someone.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: Not necessarily. After all, we did just find Justin standing over the dead bodies and he’d been alone when the power went out at the fire department.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: *shocked* Oh my goodness, you’re right! Anyone could have been moving around in the dark in the police station too! But how does that explain the log cabin.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: Their was a door leading outside from the kitchen right next to the door to the living room. Remember? He could have slipped in and out easily I bet!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: Just wait until I tell Riley! He’s going to love this.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: Great let’s go find the others. And Paige, I will be back to clean this disaster when this adventure is over. How could you have let the archives get this dusty.

-meanwhile in the Kid’s room-

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: Hey, how ya handling the evening babe?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/6...d03f450917.png Beth: To be honest I’m pretty frightened but it’s comforting to know I’ve surrounded by friends who will protect me.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: *checks to make sure no one will overhear them* Remember those silver earrings I gave you?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/6...99c179630c.png Beth: *uneasily looks around* They’re at home in my jewelry box. Can we not talk about those here please?

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: *nervously* Did you get them engraved?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/a...ea3c29d671.png Beth: *annoyed* Can you drop it? I didn’t get them engraved okay.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: *relieved he smiles and gives her a quick hug* Why do we have to be so secretive babe?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/6...d03f450917.png Beth: *looks away* It’s just going to take some time okay. It’s a little too complicated at the moment.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: *gives her another quick hug and then pulls away* Okay let’s go meet up with the others.

Back in the reception room Lindsey and Artimis walk in arguing after having been searching the library.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: Come on Artimis, one little makeover. You’ll be fine! Your attire is atrociously messy all the time.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: Not messy Lindsey. It’s casual. And i like my attire how it is. Simple and relaxed just like me.

Detective Shadami walks in from outside the building.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: All is clear outside. Where is everyone?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey:*points at the message on the wall* We all went around the library to search.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: And who is the ‘little friend.’

As Detective Shadami asks her question , Paige, Johnny, Beth, Jacque, Justin, Riley, and Diana all return to the reception area.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/e...844a97fc59.png Justin: Oh that would be Cecilia. She went missing tonight.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: *shocked* That’s impossible! Jeryck and Cessy are out of town right now!

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: *flabbergasted* What?! But?! He called me tonight to go looking for her!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: Why would he have called you anyways? Who was the call from?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/7...74fa144e2b.png Riley: Well the caller I.D. said it came from a phone at town hall.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: Well we need to get over there right away and look for clues as to who actually called you! *pauses and looks around* Wasn’t there more of you earlier?

Everyone looks around and realize the group from the research room hasn’t returned yet and everyone runs to the room and finds the next batch of slaughtered Menewshans.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: This prooves it. There is a serial killer somewhere in this town hunting us down and we need to get to the bottom of this before they strike again! To the town hall everyone! We need to find where the impersonator was calling from and see if we can get any evidence on them!

Day 6 StoryX


-in the Gents Room-
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...fc71171e82.png Razor: You know this started as a wild goose chase right?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...0fa566fad5.png Vox: Yeah but now it’s a flight of terror.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...fc71171e82.png Razor: Exactly, but it is a little worrying.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/d...000d92c3c1.png Nephila: yeah why’s that? Maybe people dropping like flies everywhere we go?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...fc71171e82.png Razor: Well yes, partially. But I’m talking about the fact that it started with power outages, and the killer was being stealthy. Now they’re taking us out when the lights are on.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/d...000d92c3c1.png Nephila: *surprised* Oh my god, you’re right!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...0fa566fad5.png Vox: *scared* that means that any of us could be next!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/5...d5a2c8bf7d.pngMysterious Figure: Not just anyone. You.

-meanwhile in the deputy mayor’s office-

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: This must be the area where the call came from!

Detective Shadami sits down at the desk and checks the phone’s call history. There was indeed a call placed from the phone to the night watch station that night. Aside from this there are no obvious clues inside the Deputy Mayor’s Office. She sits, resting a moment to collect her thoughts.


http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: You know there is something strange about this room, but I can’t quite put my finger on it… Oh well I’m sure it will come to me, now where did everyone else get off to.

-Meanwhile in the Grand Hall -

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: *looking at the photographs on the walls and scoffs* These photographs are far too typical and uninspired.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige:So why not offer some of your own than.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: I have. But apparently those in charge aren’t cultured enough to appreciate true masterpieces.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: *snorts* Perhaps your wig is a little too tight Diana.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: *spins on her heel angrily and opens her mouth to argue with Paige and gets interrupted immediately*

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: *grumbling* You ladies making me wish I’d searched for the phone’s location with someone else.

As Diana walks towards Paige she steps on a book that was laying on the floor. She picks it up and quirks an eyebrow.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: Book of proverbs huh? Who reads this babble I wonder.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: Oh that’s a book Riley checked out from the library.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: *Diana opens the book to a random bookmarked location* Oh, now this is interesting. What do you think of it Jacque?

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: *Grudgingly he takes the book and reads it silently. His eyes grow wide and he quickly shoves the book back at Diana* I need to find Beth.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: *Confused Paige takes the book and reads. “Love sees sharply, hatred sees even more sharp, but jealousy sees the sharpest of all for it is love and hate at the same time.”* Riley… Confounded she quickly follows Jacque out of the room.

Paige catches up with Jacque as they run into most of the others in the central hallway. Shadami meets up with them here as well having been exploring the more off limit locations like the deputy mayor’s office, and the other upstairs private offices.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: Has anyone found anything interesting? I found the location that the call came from but beyond that there was nothing special.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: Has anyone seen Riley?

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: Where’s Beth?

Everyone looks around among their group taking head counts, and realize that Name of Menewshans, Beth, Riley, and Justin are all missing.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: *angrily* Who was with Beth!? Where is she!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: *curiously* Why are you worried about her so much, we should be worried that our main suspect Justin is missing!

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: Main suspect?! Forget Justin, it was Riley! He asked Beth out a while ago and she turned him down!

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: Did she? *inspecting fingernails closely* P.S.Herman seems to believe your girlfriend was unfaithful. The way you’re acting, I’d say she’s the girlfriend.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: No he’s not.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: Yes I am! She made me keep it secret, and now I’m worried about her being missing with Riley!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige:It can’t be Riley! He would have told me if he had a girlfriend!

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: He didn’t tell you his heart was broken! He’s got to be the killer and he’s got Beth!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: Beth is my girlfriend, not yours.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: *shocked disbelief* WHAT?!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: And now we should go find her. Regardless of her hurting both of us, she’s in danger right? We shouldn’t be sitting around here arguing.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: Do we really have to go dashing off again?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/c...34cad423d1.png Diana: Yes we do. There are missing bodies to be found.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/0...01f53cfaa6.png Artimis: Can I just run to the bathroom quick first. It feels like forever since I was home.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: We really shouldn’t split up again. I’ll go with you.Jacque, why don’t you come too.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: Are we really splitting into girls and guys for this stupid search? *looks over at Paige* Fine, let’s just get it over with.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: Fine, but hurry!

Artimis drags the men into the bathroom and Detective Shadami and the women suddenly hear a high pitched scream come from the gents room. Forgetting gender laws, they all rush in and see the missing menewshans they had been looking for lying in the bathroom clearly dead.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...ef4802c391.png Jacque: She’s not here. She’s not here.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/2...e4aafae418.png Johnny: Guys look what I found.
Johnny holds up a night watch hat that only Riley ever bothers to wear, and a piece of paper that reads: “If you want to see Beth alive again, come to where it began.” They all look at each other confused.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey: Where what began?
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/8...7be306efdd.png Paige: If it’s the cabin, I’m not going back to the cabin.
http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/9...8b09d8dc20.png Lindsey:Well what about the hospital. The serial killer must have been born in the hospital.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: I guess that makes as much sense as anything. Let’s see if we can find them in the hospital.

They quickly move off to the hospital where they find Riley passed out on the front steps and Shadami quickly steps forward before Jacque can attack him in anger.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/b...59f9a588c5.png Shadami: The rest of you search the hopsital for Beth and Justin while I bring Riley to and question him.


However before she can stop them the entire group runs off and splits up. Distrust between everyone erupting out in waves.

http://www.menewsha.com/img/103489/6...625bb70689.png

Location: Hospital
Psychologist Wing
You find a note on one of the patients, sadly the name is blacked out because of patient doctor confidentiality. It reads “She seems a model citizen, helping to bring beauty to her secretive subject matter and is really popular as a result. However I fear that the dark beauty in her work is not actually an artistic flare on things. I believe that the subject matters she focuses on may be real, and that she is not falsifying the situations she displays. I have studied her for years, but I only have my intuition still. Something does not seem right with this patient though she hides it well.”
(+1 Raffle Ticket)


Nursery
There are rows of glass crib carts throughout the room. It’s a bit eerie walking between them. Every single one is empty which isn’t what you were expecting. Though maybe you should have been expecting it with the emptiness of the entire town. Finally you riffle through a couple blankets for a sign of life and as you pick one up some coins fall out and clatter to the floor.

The moment you step into the room you wonder if you’ve gone insane. Laying all over are baskets of carrots, and food, and bunnies. You half expect the bunnies to mutate into something more terrifying when you realize that everything is soft squishy and fake. What did someone think they were the Easter bunny when they got stuck in here?

Intensive Care Unit
You find a DNA test results and letter page that says that another heir to the Fiscal fortune has been found because of the emergency blood transfusion that Mr. Fiscal needed to live. His son wasn’t a perfect match because of blood type but they had managed to find another, but it would take revealing the family connection if he wanted to have the process done. A return letter confirms that he would like to forgive the families past grievances and welcome the new heir back to the family if he were to agree to the transfusion. “Please let me know their name so I may speak to them myself.”
(+1 Raffle Ticket)


Nurse’s Station
You can’t find Beth at the Nurse’s station but you find some nifty scrubs laying on the desk. Hey it’s Halloween, maybe you could go as a nurse! Everything you need for it is laying right here for the taking!

You find a note. “If they’re complaining about non existent pain to much. Just show them this!” You gulp at the size of the needle and decide the best course of action is to get it away from the hospital so that it can’t be offered to people.

I'll be updating the "where are we" in a grouping every couple hours i think instead of every post . xD

So don't worry, i shouldn't miss anyone :D But if you can't remember if you've posted for a particular day I'll update pretty regularly.
