The sun arose on the third day, since the first killing. The villagers had barely slept, if they slept at all, but the lynching of one of the creatures had filled their minds with hope. They all dreaded leaving their homes. Would someone else be gone? One by one people started to emerge from their homes...one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.....nine? There seemed to be two people missing.

"It's Briseis!! " Someone shouted." She must have been one of those creatures!!" "No wait...Rune is gone as well." someone realized.
The villagers all looked around in confusion. Snapping out of their stupor, they advanced towards the home of Briseis. Upon entry, they found her peacefully sitting in a large chair in her kitchen, as if she were asleep. There was no mistaking, the blood though. Her wrists were slash and there on the table before her was a note, that said only.."I can not take this anymore...goodbye."
Someone threw up and another screamed. "So that leaves us only with Rune...shall we?"

The villagers made quickly for the home of Rune the Weaver. There he lay sprawled on his back in front of his house, with a look of terror on his face. His chest had been ripped open and his heart lay exposed.

" That means the Thing is in someone...... here, right now....." Everyone looked around in fear.
