M A F I A G A M E :: Take Two, Night Three
"Do you seriously think it's going to stop this?"
That's Kat, half-hysterical and shaking her head. "Look at us! Thirteen, there were thirteen of us who came here and now it's what, nine? Do you think anything we've done has helped? We're still dying," she shouts, "and you're going to kill me because of what- there's no reason. We're just killing ourselves!"
Jill sighs. "Or you could have been the one behind all this, and only if we kill you will it stop. We've been through this, Kat, you know-"
"What do you know?" she replies. "All any of us know is who we are, what we've done but what good is that if you're not going to believe me?"
No one bothers to reply, but it's there, in your eyes: better you than me.
"What good is it, you tell me."
"Kat, just-" Miru breaks off, not sure what to say. Relax? At a time like this? "-you understood when we had to do this before, didn't you? With the others, and maybe you're right, maybe we might have been wrong about them but we don't know. We can't know, and all we can do is try to stop it."
"And killing me will help." Kat laughs, and shakes her head. "You- you all..."
For a moment, it looks like Pao is about to say something, before her eyes widen and she barely manages to throw herself aside as a bullet grazes her shoulder. "What the-"
The words barely leave her mouth before the sound of gunfire fills the air.
Oh, someone's not wasting time. Next to Pao, Lavie's clutching her shoulder, a look of pain on her face, where she's been shot. Kat's already headed for the main door, guns out and an expression on her face that says that if she's going down, she's going to take everyone else down with her.
Aisu and Yukeh are shooting back, but somehow, either by sheer luck or skill or because they've got to deal with the fact that Kat is shooting at them, too, Kat somehow manages to make it to the door, and out.
Back in the dining room, the rest of you look around. "It's not like she can get off this island," Tess comments. "So she'll be out there."
"Waiting in the dark to pick us of one by one? A bit cliche, don't you think?" Case replies, leaning against the doorframe. "I'd propose another hunt, but you know how it is, money's short and all that."
Jill looks at them, mouth open, but just as she starts to speak there's a scream.
"Kat?" she asks, and then there's that scream, again.
It's definitely her.
Everyone shares a look that says: this could be a trap, this could just be a lure, but...
"I'll check," Yukeh volunteers. She's still got her revolver out in her hand and if anything comes up, well, it's not like she's a slow shot. Case nods to her and steps aside, and it's a few moments before a shot rings out.
A second or two later, Yukeh comes back in. "She must've stepped on a spider or something," she says, "found her lying on the ground, face all frozen up."
But it's always wise to make sure, and besides, dying like that is long and painful, she doesn't say.
The rest of you don't seem to mind, though, so the body's left there to rot- it's too late to clean up and anyway, you're tired after a long day and somehow you can't help but hope that maybe, just maybe, it'll be all over now.
