First murder:
Outside the dust and wind battered against the metal compound walls. Inside all was quiet. The crew slept soundly in their bunks for the night. Staff Sgt Band had the night shift and was patrolling the grounds. The night when on. Later another was wide-awake, Alpha. Alpha moved quickly and silently to the medical lab where he told his counter part to wait for him.
?You?re late,? Alpha?s friend said as they moved out of the darkness.
?You know why I called you here, right??
?I know. You?re paranoid. Believe me, I was talking to the crew before. None of them knows the container.?
?Are you sure? It doesn?t matter anyway. We have to get it out of her without anyone finding out about it. It?s not going to be too long before the Terran Confederacy arrives and then we?re screwed!?
?Calm down,? reassured his mysterious friend. ?You know what we have to do??
Alpha realized what the dark figure was talking about. ?No. We?re not killing them. Most of them died covering our backs! We?re both here because of these men and now you?re just going to stab them all in the back?!?
?Well, I was thinking of other ways, but yes. It would seem appropriate. You know what?s in that container. You know it?s way more valuable then anyone here.?
?I fought next to these people. I set fire to their enemies saving them. I put in my hard yards and I ain?t gonna let you kill them all!?
Alpha turned around to exit the door but stopped. ?Don?t worry,? he said to the dark figure, ?I?ll work something out.?
A needle struck him in the side of the neck. Alpha began to feel woozy and his vision blurred. ?I already have,? said the dark figure holding him up. The figure dragged Alpha?s body across the room. He dropped him in the corner and threw the needle into the bin.
?You were depressed for the loss of your friends on the battlefield and decided to end it all,? said the mysterious friend as he pulled out a scalpel from the draw. The dark figure then cut Alpha?s wrists and put the scalpel in his other hand to make it look as if it was suicide. The pain was excruciating but Alpha knew he had to warn everyone somehow. The dark figure stood up and began to walk away.
Alpha pulled a gun out of his holster.
The Dark figure was a little shocked to see that Alpha had brought a gun along with him. ?You know you can?t hit me. Your aims a little off my friend.?
He was right; Alpha could barely hold the gun up. His arm collapsed under the weight of the gun. The drugs and the blood loss had hit him hard. The figure moved over to Alpha to get rid of his gun, but with the last of Alpha?s strength, he managed to pull the trigger back and fire the bullet. The shot echoed through the halls.
Lights began to flicker on in the halls as people slowly started to get up, inquisitive of the noise. People started to gather around the main hall.
?What the hell was that!?? said Kurt. Getting angry because his sleep had been disrupted.
Professor Galt strode into the middle of them all with his arms at his back.
?What is the meaning of all of this??
Sgt Band had stepped forward into the crowed.
?There?s something all you guys better see,? he said with a grim look on his face.
He led everyone to the medical lab where Alpha?s body lay there in a pool of blood.
?I found him with slit wrists. I guess the bastard wanted to die.?
?No,? said P.R stepping through the crowed. ?This looks like an assassination attempt gone sour.?
He looked at G.H one of the other Ghosts who nodded at him.
?There?s no gun on the site. We all heard a shot fired and there?s a bullet hole in the wall.?
?Like he was trying to signal us?? Killion wondered out loud.
Larenxis nervously looked at the body. ?You mean somebody killed him? Why would anyone do that?!?
They all began to look at each other. One of them had murdered a friend of theirs. Who could have done it?
Rules:
Yay, the first part has been done. Really sorry Alpha001 for your loss. So now it?s voting time. Everyone tells their arguments on who is the killer. The killer would most likely also vote for one of you so be careful.
