Another Shade of Blood [Concluded]

[Visor]

After a lengthy discussion, Atheotes and Askthepizzaguy were ties for the lynch vote. As was the usual, ties were settled by duelling, for the entertainment of the crowd. The townsfolk gathered around the town square, and the opponents were offered a choice of three weapons. After they were outfitted, they were led into the centre. The mayor blew a whistle to announce the beginning of the battle.

Atheotes walked out confidently, the size of his weapon, a screwdriver, meant nothing to him. Askthepizzaguy was still getting used to the feel of his weapon. He had no idea what a “cricket bat” was, nor its use. It did however, look like it could bludgeon someone to death. ATPG charged in swinging wildy. His only intention was to beat atheotes down as quick as possible. Atheotes backed away carefully, before his arm dashed out and sliced ATPG’s arm, however it wasn’t deep at all, and simply made ATPG back off a bit. Atheotes wouldn’t get another easy shot like that.

“That’s simply not cricket!” he protested loudly.

This garnered a few stunned responses from the crowd, while the Australians started to laugh heartily. Atheotes began an advance this time, striking quickly as ATPG dodged the blows. He began a little fightback of his own, and a well timed blow knocked the screwdriver out of his opponents hand. Atheotes scrambled over towards it, clutching his hand.

“Marvellous stuff that!” one of the spectators yelled out.

ATPG charged after atheotes and they began a flurry of blows, with ATPG gaining the advantage with the heavier weapon. Eventually he backed him up to a wall Atheotes fought desperately against the rain of blows incoming on his person. He punched ATPG in the face, and rolled out of the way of the retaliation punch. ATPG growled and charged at Atheotes, who had turned around and was facing ATPG. He smiled and threw the screwdriver at ATPG, the blade going into his eye, thrown much faster then he could react. He fell to his knees, dead before he hit the ground. The crowd was in a shocked silence at the sudden death. Atheotes looked around.

No dead mafioso here guys. You never can get me when I'm scum, but when I'm town.... bulls-eye on my back.

[Montmorency]

Not when you're town, but when you challenge me.

Let this be a lesson to would-be do-gooders.

Chaotix decided to finish another chapter of the book he was reading that night, he was glad to have tomorrow off. As he lay in bed, a gun was being set up on the roof across from his apartment. After a short while, the light in Chaotix’s room went out and after a few minutes waiting to ensure he was indeed sleeping, it began to open fire. Bullets sprayed out of the machine at a rapid rate, creating hundreds of little holes. Chaotix was not dead however and began to run to the fire escape, dodging more bullets.

Chaotix made it to the fire escape and began to climb down. However, he did not make it, as his descent was stopped due to the fire escape being broken. Cursing, he began to climb up it, onto the roof. He made it to the top and saw a gunman firing at his house. When he stopped to reload, Chaotix ran across his roof as fast as he could, and soon enough the bullets began to chase him, getting closer and closer, as was the end of the roofing. He made it to the end and tried to stop, but skidded off the wet tiles, falling onto the cement below.

He laid there with terrible pain for a few minutes, until his vision blacked out. He heard footsteps approaching, and he turned in the direction of the sound. Then nothing, as a bullet put him out of misery.

Chaotix has been killed.

So either the doctor made a successful save last night or the mafia/serial killer forgot to send in their kill. OR AskThePizzaGuy was the serial killer.

I think I'll keep recast my vote from yesterday since I made it too late last time.
