Map: Skeld.

"Good luck everyone!" Constance said as the game started.

Yuri stretched his arms as he looked at the screen, showing that he was an imposter, along with Balthus. "Well, this ought to be interesting," he said as the game started, and everyone started moving. Yuri walked over to the Medbay with Seteth, who was starting his Medbay scan. Yuri walked over and faked the sample task.

"Should I kill him right now?" Yuri wondered. Once Seteth was done, he started walking out of Medbay, and Yuri followed him.

Suddenly, an emergency meeting was called. Yuri unmuted as the discussion started.

"Hello?" Balthus asked.

"Oh, what's happening?" Catherine asked. "Has anyone been killed?"

"Nope, we're all alive," Hapi pointed out.

"I'm sorry to disturb everyone, but there's something we have to discuss right away!" Manuela said. "And it all revolves around a certain someone trying to chase down and kill me!"

"Who are you talking about, certainly not me… are you?" Alois asked.

"No! I'm talking about that stubborn old mule over there!"

Yuri rubbed his forehead and groaned. 'Here we go again,' he thought.

"Excuse me!? Are you implying that I am one of the killers?" Hanneman asked.

"Yes I am! You were chasing me, and if you had just a little more time, you would have swiped me then and there! I'm on to your little tricks!" Manuela replied.

"Manuela, this is another one of your outlandish accusations! We both went to the Weapons room, I was doing my download task, and you were doing your asteroid task. I waited until you were done so we could stick together," Hanneman started explaining.

"I stopped early because you were standing there, waiting for an opportunity to kill me! But I made it to the button before you could even do anything!"

"So that's why you stopped early. I was wondering how you were able to finish that task so fast," Hanneman noted.

"Oh, so you think I can't get my tasks done before you get a chance to kill me, is that it?" Manuela fired back.

Seteth finally spoke up. "I hate to interrupt this… initiative conversation, but is there any point to this meeting other than accusing each other of being the imposter?"

"I'm saying we vote out Hanneman before he has a chance to kill me!" Manuela said as she placed her vote.

"You cannot make an accusation like that on poor and ineffective evidence," Hanneman said.

Hapi could be heard groaning. "At this point, we might as well vote them both out of they're gonna keep acting like this. They almost made me sigh right there."

"If nothing else is going to come out from this conversation, I'd say we pretend like this never happened," Seteth said as he placed his vote.

"I have to agree with you brother," Flayn added as she placed her vote.

"These meetings are supposed to help us find the imposter, not for you two to make it your own soap opera," Catherine said as she also placed her vote.

"Blame Hanneman for that! Acting all suspicious while I'm just trying to be a good crewmate and get my tasks done!" Manuela said.

"As am I!" Hanneman said back as he also placed his vote.

"…Alright, great meeting guys. How about we wrap things up and get some tasks done," Balthus said as he placed his vote. Alois and Constance placed their votes afterwards.

"I swear, if all these meetings are going to be these two bickering, then maybe the imposters should go after them first," Yuri said as he voted to skip.

"I actually agree with you on this Yuri-bird," Hapi said as she placed her vote. The final tally was one vote for Hanneman and everyone else voting to skip.

"I'm onto you!" Manuela said.

"All you are doing is wasting your time!" Hanneman said as the next round started, and everyone muted.

"You know," Yuri said to himself as everyone started dispersing again. "Maybe we could use those two to our advantage." He ran down to Admin and over to the card swipe. As he faked the task, he pulled up the Sabotage map.

"Nighty-night," he said teasingly as the lights started dimming. Yuri walked out of Admin and up into Cafeteria. Alois was passing by and Yuri swiped him and ran off towards the Medbay. As he entered, the lights came back on. Yuri walked up the sample task in case anyone walked in.

After another second, he walked out of Medbay and headed to the Reactor. He just passed the Upper Engine when a body was reported. Yuri unmuted as the discussion started.

"I found someone over by the Lower Engine," Catherine said. "I'm pretty sure it was Constance."

"Oh, and Alois is dead!" Balthus said.

"Where was everyone when the lights went out? Flayn and I were in Electrical, which is why we were able to fix them quickly," Seteth said.

"Correct!" Flayn said. "I was doing my wiring task, and I was the first one there. Then my brother joined me and we fixed the lights!"

"I was in Admin and then I was walking up to Medbay when the lights went out. I figured I might as well finish my sample task since I was in the area," Yuri said.

"I was all the way in Oxygen," Hapi said.

"…I don't mean to throw an accusation but…" Manuela started.

"Here we go again," Catherine said.

"Hanneman, why did you walk into Navigation, where I was, and then walk back out without doing any tasks? Looking for me so you can kill me?"

"If you must know, I went into that room to see if I could catch anyone in the act. And once I saw it was you, I left because there was nothing in interest in that room," Hanneman said.

"Oh, so I'm not interesting? Is that it?"

"I said no such thing!"

"Both of you! Enough!" Seteth said. "The two of you are getting so worked up over this game! We all agreed to play this with the students. And here I was hoping this could be one thing you two didn't bicker about."

The two in question didn't say anything before Manuela spoke up. "I guess I was acting a little rash. Alright, no more accusing unless I have hard evidence."

"And I will try to not make any accusations against you as well," Hanneman replied back.

"Alright, now that that's out of the way, let's get back to business," Yuri said. "Who saw who last?"

"My brother and I were in Electrical, and the two of us fixed the lights," Flayn explained. "I think someone else came into Electrical as well, but I don't remember the color."

"That's not too far away from where the body was," Catherine said. "If you can remember what the color was, that could be really helpful."

"I will try my best," Flayn said.

"What about Alois? Did anyone see him?" Hapi asked.

"I saw him briefly when I was in Cafeteria as the lights were going out, but I didn't see anyone else in the room with us," Yuri said. "Must have been hiding out as the lights were going out."

"I was in the Reactor that time, and Constance was with me, and then I saw her heading South when the lights went out. I'm not sure where she went afterwards, and I didn't see anyone," Balthus explained.

"Wait, you were by the Reactor? Because I was by Security, and I didn't see you at all," Catherine said.

"The lights were out, but I was there," Balthus said.

"You know what? You're right. I went on Cameras briefly and I did see you going into Reactor. My bad," Catherine replied.

"So, do we have any leads?" Seteth asked. "Besides you two," he added, probably referring to Manuela and Hanneman.

"I have nothing. I can't remember what color I saw," Flayn said as she placed her vote.

"Maybe Manuela and Hanneman could be one of the imposters, and are trying to rat each other out," Catherine joked.

"You know, if we vote them both out, then we won't have to deal with their shenanigans," Hapi suggested as she placed her vote.

"I'll agree to that," Yuri said as he also placed his vote for Manuela.

"Now wait just a minute! If you all vote for me, you're going to be throwing this game!" Manuela said.

Seteth could be heard sighing. "This is getting nowhere! All I know is that it couldn't have been me or Flayn, and I'm pretty sure it wasn't Manuela or Hanneman."

"Well of course it wasn't me!" Hanneman said.

Flayn sighed next. "I think I have to skip this time, because I still don't remember who I saw coming into the room at the end."

"I'm skipping too," Catherine said. "I'm honestly stumped."

"Same here," Balthus said. A few others also placed their votes, and the final tally was two votes for Manuela, one vote for Hanneman, and everyone else voting to skip.

"Are you kidding me?" Manuela exclaimed. "I bet one of them was from you Hanneman!"

"I vote to skip!" Hanneman defended.

"Oh, sure you did," Manuela said back as the next round began and everyone muted.

Yuri started chuckling to himself. "This is going to be too easy," he said as he ran over to Weapons with Hapi. The two ran down into Navigation. Hapi started doing one of her tasks and Yuri faked one of the other tasks in the room.

"Alright…" he said as he opened his Sabotage map. "Well, since Professors Manuela and Hanneman are already having a meltdown, let's add on to that," he said as he clicked the button and the Reactor alarm started going off.

Hapi started leaving, and Yuri followed behind, but as Hapi ran North, Yuri ran South. "Hopefully she didn't notice that," Yuri said as he ran past Shields and Communications. As he ran into Storage, Flayn was at her gas task.

"Sorry Flayn," he said as he swiped a kill and ran over into Electrical as the Reactor was being fixed. Yuri walked up to one of the tasks and faked it. Catherine walked into Electrical and started doing a task next to him.

Yuri looked at his kill cooldown. "I could get another kill here. I wonder if Balthus has killed anyone," he wondered. He was about to walk over to Catherine when a body was reported. The discussion started, and Yuri unmuted.

"I found Flayn dead on the gasoline task in Storage," Hanneman said.

"No! Not Flayn!" Seteth exclaimed. "I will find out whoever did this if it's the last thing I do!"

"Chill out, it's just a game," Hapi said.

"…You're right. Flayn is fine, and I will try not to worry about her for the rest of the game."

"Thank you, brother!" Flayn could be heard saying. Yuri chuckled a little as Flayn muted again.

"Wait, she was dead in Storage?" Catherine asked. "Damn it, I should have gone there first instead of going into Electrical first. I could have caught someone."

"Same here. I saw Flayn in Storage and she was still alive. But I left her to go to Electrical to do another task," Yuri said.

"Soooooo, why didn't you go fix the Reactor? I saw you heading the opposite direction when we left Navigation. Where did you go after that?" Hapi asked.

"I went through Shields, the past Communications, into Storage where I saw Flayn, and then as I walked past Electrical, the Reactor was fixed. I went into Electrical to do one of my tasks and then Catherine walked in. I should've gone back to Storage to see if anyone else was in there."

"Who fixed the Reactor?" Seteth asked.

"Me and Catherine did," Balthus said. "I came from Medbay, and I saw her coming up from Lower Engine."

"So, from what I'm hearing, the people who were near Flayn at the time were Catherine and Yuri, am I correct?" Seteth said.

"I didn't see Flayn at all," Catherine said.

"And she was alive when I saw her last. If my hunch is correct, there must have been someone else in Storage, or someone nearby and quickly went in for a kill," Yuri said.

"Exactly!" Manuela exclaimed. "And guess who I saw in Admin, which is right by Storage?"

"You saw me trying to get my card swipe task done!" Hanneman said. "It took me five tries to get that task done, which is why it took me so long."

"And when I walked back up into Cafeteria, you went down and killed poor Flayn as everyone was trying to fix the Reactor," Manuela accused.

"That is preposterous! I also walked up into the Cafeteria as the Reactor was going off!" Hanneman said.

"Hey, this sounds like a crazy idea, but can we vote them both off? If we waste time babysitting these two with their constant bickering, we're never gonna find out who the imposters are!" Yuri said as he placed his vote for Manuela.

"I hate to admit, but Yuri-bird has a point," Hapi said. "I also feel like one of you is the imposter, and that's why the killings have been so slow."

"If that is going to be the case, then it has to be Manuela, because I am innocent this game," Hanneman said.

"Oh no you don't! I'm the innocent one. Vote off Hanneman first!" Manuela said back.

"If we're voting both of them off, then it doesn't really matter who we vote off first," Balthus said. "Who did you vote for Yuri?"

"I voted for Manuela," Yuri said.

"What!?" Manuela exclaimed.

"Alright, we'll vote for her first, call a button, and vote Hanneman off," Balthus said as he placed his vote.

"This is outrageous!" Manuela exclaimed.

"I'm up for that," Hapi said as she also placed her vote. "I'm pretty sure at least one of them is the imposter."

"Hold on, should we really be risking this?" Catherine asked.

"It's either this or we continue with their stupid bickering every meeting that isn't going to get us anywhere," Yuri argued.

"I still don't like that idea. I'm skipping," Catherine said as she placed her vote. Hanneman placed his vote afterwards.

"I'm telling you it's Hanneman. Have I ever been wrong before?" Manuela said as she placed her vote.

"Well, it all comes down to you Seteth," Yuri said. "Who's it going to be?"

"I don't like being put in this kind of situation, especially since I'm trying to figure out who it was the killed Flayn." He paused for a second. "But I still feel like's it too risky to vote one of them out when we only have seven left, so I'm going to skip."

Seteth voted, and the final tally was one vote for Hanneman, two votes to skip, and four votes for Manuela.

Manuela could be heard gasping, and Yuri had a sly smile on his face. "See ya," he said as a few others were talking.

"You are all going to regret this!" Manuela said as she was ejected into space.

"I think we made the right decision," Hanneman said as everyone muted as the next round began. Once he was muted, Yuri started laughing.

"Oh man," he said in-between laughs. "That was too perfect!" He ran around the button table, where Seteth and Balthus were waiting. "Alright, how much time do we have?" Yuri pulled up the button to check the meeting cooldown.

"Alright Balthus, all we need is a double kill." Yuri pulled up the Sabotage map. "Let's get that Reactor going in five… four… three… two… one!" Yuri clicked the button and the Reactor alarm started going off.

"We got this," he said as he started running with Balthus to the Reactor room. The two walked inside, and Yuri was grateful that no one else was in the Reactor at the moment.

"Alright, let's do this," Yuri said as he and Balthus stood inside the room and waited. After a few seconds, Seteth ran inside, and Balthus ran up and killed him.

"One down," Yuri said. He ran out into the hallway and saw Hanneman running up from the South. "And… GG!" Yuri said as he sliced Hanneman. The screen faded and the victory screen appeared, with Balthus and Yuri standing tall.

"Balthus, that was too easy!" Yuri said.

"The grappling king is back and better than ever!" Balthus said.

"Wow…" Hapi said.

"I told you guys it was too risky to vote on seven, and look what happened!" Catherine said.

"I had to be a ghost for most of that game!" Alois said. "Do you guys know how much I'm afraid of them!"

"Well then, you had plenty of time to overcome that fear, didn't you?" Yuri asked.

"That's not funny, and I know funny!" Alois responded.

"I had fun being a ghost! I could see everything, and I got all my tasks done!" Flayn said.

"Did I have to be the first one you guys had to kill?" Constance asked. "Once my house gets restored, I'll be coming for you two!"

Yuri chuckled. "Alright then."

"Anyways, I think we know who really is to blame for this crewmate loss," Seteth said. Everyone was quiet before one person spoke up.

"I guess me and Manuela were acting a bit childishly," Hanneman said.

"A bit?" Hapi asked.

"Fine, a lot," Hanneman said. "I guess we were… what you kids call 'third imposters' weren't we?"

"I was the one who started it though. Why do you always do this Manuela?" she asked herself.

"Perhaps next time, we shouldn't make baseless accusations against each other," Hanneman said.

"I guess not," Manuela replied.

"I also think between the two of us, we should leave the deducing to me. With all my research on crests, I've learned a thing or two about paying attention to details," Hanneman added.

"…Hold on, are you saying that I'm too dumb to find out who the imposters are!?" Manuela asked.

"I'm not saying that, but I am the one who is the best at figuring out smaller details, and I can also bring forward different possibilities and theories."

"And so can I! No way am I going to give all that up for your crazy theories!"

"Crazy!?"

As the two started bickering again, Yuri sighed. "Can we make it a house rule that these two shouldn't be in the same lobby?"

"Agreed!" Everyone replied.

Those two are made for each other. Mixing it up next chapter!
