The D-league vs. The Dark Monarch

Volume 2, Issue 5: *Insert Witty Title Here*

It was another super dark night as our heroes slept peacefully in their beds. Well, not all of them. Some weren’t sleeping at all; in fact 2 in particular were sneaking through the halls on their way to the room of their next victim. It was still a mystery as to how they never awoke anyone, since they were extremely bad at sneakyness.

At this same moment another hero was also not sleeping safely in her bed, she was sleeping in the middle of the hallway. After the brief (and unplanned) nap the shapeshifter finally awoke and continued on to the room of her next, and final, victim.

When she tapped soflty on the door, the whispering that could be heard from within was promptly quieted. After a pause Autume answered the door.

“What are you doing up so late?” she asked as she returned to her chair and continued her one-way conversation with the blue fish. (the orange one was ignoring her tonight and the purple one was busy eating).

“Well you see, Lady Tum…” the intruder began as she transformed into the bear that she was, “I kinda came to kill you.”

And that’s exactly what she did. Afterwards she pulled out her bear shaped post-it notes and her fluffy green pen and began to scrawl down her message like usual. However, she didn’t have the chance to finish…

“There you are Mira.” Pain said as he walked up to her and tapped her on the shoulder. Mira spun around and gasped, but before she could fully transform she was knocked down by a large gust of wind. She attempted to get up, still trying to transform, but then she fell asleep at this most inopportune moment.

“That makes it easier.” Pain said before attacking the slumbering she-bear. As he did this, quiet loudly I might add, Gust grabbed Mira’s fluffly pen and pulled out a butterfly shaped note-pad.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

The heroes awoke the following morning and were sad to see that yet again 2 more heroes were missing. They went first to the room of Autume, the fish whisperer. As they walked in they beheld quiet the bloodbath, and knew this was the only room they’d have to be visiting that morning.

The bath part of the bloodbath was on the left side of the room, where a wide mouthed Autume had been stuffed into her fish tank. The orange fish was still ignoring her, the purple one was belly-up and the blue one seemed quite distraught at the loss of his master. There was a note posted awkwardly to the side of the tank that read:

Dear heroes:

Lady Tum was having difficulty sleeping, so I thought perhaps she’d be more content to sleep with her fishes. Hope you all have an aaaaaggghhhhhhh……

Rather then trying to make sense of this odd note the heroes turned their attention to the other side of the room, where the blood part of the bloodbath had taken place. Here they found a mangled and bloody Mira. But she wasn’t just normal Mira. One of her hands was actually a bear paw, she had a cute little tail and big brown ears, as well as fluffy brown fur sticking out in random places.

“So she was the bear!” Mac pointed out, in case someone hadn’t yet put the pieces together.

“How ironic, the villains actually helped us out.” Sally exclaimed relieved, but still quiet distraught as they were all still eyeing Autume in their peripheral.

“There’s a note!” Nerwen said as she reached down and picked up the blue, butterfly shaped paper.

Dear super lame heroes, that aren’t as cool as us:

You’re welcome. We know we’re awesome. Have a nice day.

Long live the Dark Monarch in all her amazingly wonderful, extremely gorgeous, non-grotesque evil powerfulness!

Best regards,
Gust & Pain

Alright, just so everybody knows, if we don't lynch a wolf toDay, we're done. With two wolves, a cobbler, and only three innocents, our chances are slim, very slim. I'll be back later toDay, and I really only have one thing to share with you for the moment. In case you've been wondering about my weird last post yesterDay, know that it was a pure bluff. I'm actually rather surprised that the wolves and the bear fell for it. (Then again, maybe they didn't, and left me alive intentionally so that I make people lynch innocents again.

)

Anyway, the proof can be found here and here. First letter in each sentence is the key.

~Mac, BFF.

PS: Just in case someone didn't do the math, no, lynching the cobbler is not a good idea and will result in a loss (and me getting on a plane and coming to bite you).

satansaloser2005 · 08-22-2009, 09:19 PM

Okay, I was obviously wrong about Nessa being the bear, and at least now we're rid of her. I'm admittedly too busy to analyze someone very well toDay but I'll do my best. If anyone is planning on analyzing her I'd really appreciate it if you quote her posts, so that way I don't have to look through the thread to find them all. (Don't mean to be needy but I can't guarantee I'll be active most of the day so I want to help and that would make it easier for me.)

Oh, and I'm pretty sure Tum was another of Mira's random kills.

Sorry, have to go. Try to get on again for a second before I go to bed but for now I'll be off.

EDIT: Lol Mac. I thought you were the other BFF but I couldn't see Boro putting you and Rikae together. You've my allegiance.

EDIT #2: But what if I want to be bitten?

Nienna · 08-22-2009, 09:35 PM

Yay Mac. A known innocent. We really need as many innocents as we can get right now with these odds. I've been kind of assuming you were a lover and am glad to be correct. I'm glad the bear is gone and we can analyze Mira's posts but since she posted very little I'm not sure how much information we can get out of them. She also was working alone so she wouldn't be really pointing to anyone.
Those were just some thoughts. I will be around for most of toDay so I can help as much as possible. We also need to hear much more from Form, Nerwen, and Nessa.

satansaloser2005 · 08-22-2009, 09:46 PM

Quick list in order of suspicion, from top suspect to little old innocent me.

Form/Nienna/Nessa
Nerwen (cobbler most likely)
Mac
Sally

Crap. That really tells me nothing.

satansaloser2005 · 08-22-2009, 09:49 PM

Actually I still find Nessa more suspicious, so she's at the top. Other than that I guess it's fine for now.

Placeholder vote anyone?

++Nessa

Just in case I get home tomorrow and crash for the rest of the Day.

Say lots while I'm gone, and let's hope to catch a baddie!

wilwarin538 · 08-22-2009, 10:18 PM

better be a lot more posts when I wake up......fear the butterfly's wrath....

If you think there's little information to be gotten from it, then why do it? Why don't you go over the posts of Sally, Form, Nerwen, and Nessa instead, instead of just saying they need to post more?

Yes, Sally is loud enough, but Form's participation is not really lacking either. This can easily be seen as a subtle attempt to steer the discussion away from Sally. Pairing Nienna and Sally (+1 baddie-point).
