☆ Town of Salem ☆

[ NIGHT THREE ]

Smarty's View

I bit my lip and turned away as Minx was hung right in front of our very eyes; my eyes. Minx was a friend of mine, if course we weren't as close and Chilled and her were. They were like siblings while Minx and I were casual friends who spoke to each other rarely. Still, no matter what, she was a friend.

The gurgling coming from Minx stopped after a few seconds, signalling to us that she was dead. Once her body stopped squirming around and moving, a few of the towns people started to walk back into their homes. I frowned. Who was going to die next? I asked myself, worried for the safety of the town. As soon as the sun went down and darkness took over the town, everyone went back into their houses and prepared themselves for what was coming.

I looked over at Chilled and smiled sadly. I wasn't going to visit him tonight. Someone else was out there who needed my help. He nodded and waved to me with a grin, then he ran inside his and shut the door. I smiled softly and ran to my house, opening the door widely before taking a step inside. That was when I felt eyes burning into the back of my head. I looked over my shoulder slowly, sweat dripping down the side of my face. Who was watching me?! It was like I was in a trance, I immediately looked over at Galm's house and froze.

There he was, standing in the entrance of his door, completely covered in the shadows of the night, as he was watching me enter my own home. I gulped.

"Smarty..." I heard a faint whisper in the wind call my name.

With that, I stumbled into my house and slammed the door shut, my back holding it closed as I breathed heavily. "Maybe I should use my self heal tonight..." I muttered, shivering madly.

Walking over to my desk, I took out my will and wrote in it just in case I died.

~*~ Smarty's Will: Doctor ~*~

N1- Went to heal Chilled, just in case.

N2- Again, healed Chilled. I'm sorry.

N3- ...Self heal, I don't feel safe. They're watching me.

~*~ 

"Dammit, dammit, dammit!" I exclaimed, yanking at my hair over the actions I was going to pull. "I... I might let a townie die tonight, they might just die because of me." I muttered into the palm of my hands.

But it has to be done. I can't die just yet, Chilled needs me, and...and so does Galm.

I leaned back in my chair and let out a deep breath. Hopefully, just hopefully, this self heal will be worth using today. What am I supposed to do? W-Who am I supposed to trust? The decisions waiting for me ahead were only going to get harder as the town's numbers fell.

Pinching the bridge of my nose, I stood up and walked around my house, trying to calm down. It worked somewhat, but it hardly helped me out at all. My friends, they are all going to die soon. We all are. Shaking my head, I walked over to my medical bag and took out the needle with the medicine that would help me stay immune for one night, meaning no one could kill me. I would stay alive. I took a hold of the needle and flicked it with my finger softly, smiling as the liquid inside of it squirmed around.

I smiled, "Now then, it's time to inject it inside me..." I muttered, right as someone knocked on my front door.

My grip on the needle tightened, I looked over at the door shaking in fear. I was nervous to the point of insanity. Standing up and walking over to the door, I glanced through the 'little peep hole', I spotted someone dressed head to toe in all dark colored clothing. I couldn't even see who they were due to the cloth covering their face.

"Y-Yes?" I asked, my voice failing me.

They didn't really at first, but they did place something on my door. "Well then, have a good day!" They said quickly as they ran away.

Raising an eyebrow, I tried my best to ignore what just happened at the door. I made my way back to my desk where the needle was. I grabbed the needle and let out a deep breath. "Here we go." I muttered, jabbing the needle through my skin.

The town's bell rang.

My eyes narrowed. The needle went through, but the liquid wouldn't come out. My eyes widened in recognition and I slammed my hand against my desk. I was role blocked. Did the damn escort not know that they could have killed me today by role blocking me?! I was trying to use my self heal for a reason! Clicking my tongue, I walked over to the door and slammed it open. Right when the door slammed shut, I yanked the note of my door and bang to read it.

Dear Smarty,

It's become a massacre outside our houses with all the murder going around. I do have to say, that I, the escort, have a big role on my hands. After all, I am the one who can stop the Mafia and Serial killer from killing any other innocent people. Sadly, I haven't found a clue on who could be those horrendous people. But, I do know that I have some suspicion on you. Either you be a Mafia member or Serial killer, I wish you luck in this town. Now, we wait till morning comes by...there...I'll know what you really are.

Sincerely,

Your friendly Escort

I clenched up my teeth and teared the the paper into pieces. Idiots! I'm not a killer! I'm one of the towns! If this Escort tell the townies of what she did, I could be put into the spotlight. I can only hope that both the Mafia and Serial killer did their jobs. I tossed the pieces of the note onto the ground and I stormed away, heading towards the center of the town.

"Oh my gosh!" Someone shouted, "Entoan!"

My eyes flew open at that name, someone died?! I ran as fast as I possibly could to the center where a dead body lied. I gasped as I took notice of Entoan's mutilated corpse. His neck was sliced wide open and his chest had a good amount of stab wounds scattered around. 

"Do... We we know who did this?" I asked a dumb question, seeing it was rather obvious the Serial killer killed him.

"No, but...I don't think we're going to know either way. Entoan was our lookout, the last person he watched was...Dlive." Ohm said, frowning as he caressed Entoan's cheek.

"E-Entoan..?" I heard someone mutter from behind me. I looked over my shoulder at Dlive, seeing him hunched over like he ran as fast as possible. "What..."

I bit my lip, "Dlive, I'm sorry you had to see this." I started, placing my hand on his shoulder. Dlive smacked my hand away and ran over to Entoan, shoving Ohm to the side as he did.

That's when I remembered something. Dlive had a thing for Entoan, like Minx had for Krism. He loved Entoan for a while now. But, the thing was...

-He never confessed his feelings to Entoan and now, the one he cared about is dead. Entoan was dead. He would never have the chance to show his undying love anymore.

"En-Entoan, no! Why?!" He shouted, hugging Entoan's body, the blood tainting his clothing.

The only thing he could do now was confess his feelings to a corpse, nothing more.

"Entoan...I-I love you! I love you and I always will!" He screamed, placing a kiss on Entoan's lips cold lips.

Chilled took a spot next to me, he frowned and looked at me. "I checked Nanners last night to make sure he was Vig, turns out he is. He was not suspicious." He whispered to me, looking over at Nanners.

I looked over at Nanners who was standing besides Cathy, his girlfriend. She was giving me this look like she knew what I was. My eyes widened. Is...is she the invest? No, she couldn't be. Krism was our invest... Then why in the world was she looking at me like that?

"I was roleblocked last night right as I was about to use my self heal." I told him.

He glanced at me, "Any clue who role blocked you?" He asked.

I shook my head, "I have no clue at all." I muttered out shamefully.

He nodded and continued to stare at Dlive. Dlive was still crying over Entoan, then he suddenly stopped. His whole body went ridged. Dlive stood up with his head hung low and fists clenched.

"Dlive...you okay?" Gassy asked, walking over.

"I think he's gone nuts." Mr. Sark laughed.

"Shut the fuck up!" Dlive yelled, shoving Mr. Sark away along with Gassy. He glared at them. "It's not something to joke about, he's dead! ...My Entoan's dead!"

Mr. Sark smiled, "Good for you." He stated.

I frowned at the aura coming from Mr. Sark, I felt like he was purposely angering Dlive.

"Shut the fuck up, you asshole!" Dlive yelled, pushing Mr. Sark to the ground. We all went to help Mr. Sark from the ground, but what Dlive did shocked us all.

"I, Dlive the Mayor, show my certificate of release from protection! I hereby announce that I am out in the open as the Mayor of this town!"
