After Irene had convinced Ellen and Simon to join the rest of us for discussing what we had just witnesses, we all sat down at the hotel patio, most people still pretty on edge over the whole thing.
"Let's start, shall we." Sam suggested, while she was shaking in her seat.
"Where do we even begin?" Henry asked.
"First off, did everyone watch a video where Aqua Tail pretty much said that if nobody dies in two days, one of us will lose something precious to us?" I asked the group.
Everyone nodded or replied with yes."
"And...decision...will be at...random..." Miranda added.
"And for each following day where no murders take place, another person is chosen at random." Dane added."
"Shut up waterboy!" Harvey exclaimed. "I'm gonna-Ow!"
Irene had punched Harvey really hard on the head to get him to stop, Harvey started rubbing his head.
"Shut up Harvey!" Kirsty growled. "This is serious."
Dana got up to check on Harvey, but after seeing he was fine, she then sat down. "Well, it appears we all saw the same kind of video and are in the same danger."
"If nobody spills blood, they'll be crying like a little bitch." Simon muttered.
Irene glared at Simon, before turning back to the rest of the group. "I think that first all of us should reveal whatever precious thing we saw in our videos."
"Why?" Rory asked.
"That way, we can all understand that we are all in the same boat here, and we know just how serious it is for each person."
"That makes sense to me." Bridget replied, while smiling.
"Everyone should also show there video to the rest of the group as well." Ellen added.
"Why do we need to do that?" Raj asked.
"That way, we know that person is telling the truth." RK answered.
"I suppose what Ellen is saying makes sense." I agreed. "Someone who was really affected by the motive could lie to make us seem like whatever is precious to them isn't worth killing someone, when they are already planning a murder."
"Natalie!" Gavin yelled. "Why would you say that?!"
"It isn't nice to plan murders, little girl!" Donald said in his Mr. Warn voice.
"Fools, she is absolutely right, which is why I said we all need to show our videos." Ellen replied.
"Enough!" Irene cut in. "We are all gonna reveal what our precious thing is, as well as show our videos to everyone else. Now, who wants to go first?"
"I'll start this off." Dana offered. She brought her tablet onto the table so everyone else could see, she started playing her video. "It's the beach where I work at, all my work at that place has gotten me to being an ultimate, it truly does mean a lot to me."
"Enough that you would murder someone?" Simon asked.
"Simon!" Irene hissed.
Dana shook her head. "I'm not going to do it, I won't do the unthinkable, even if Aqua Tail threatens to destroy my beach."
"Glad to hear it Dana." Kirsty smiled. "Who's next?"
"My prank website." Rory replied, while playing his video. "The website where I post all my greatest pranks and have made me an internet sensation. That damn otter has threatened to wipe it off the internet for good!"
"Even...if Aqua Tail...does...You...can just...make a new one..." Miranda shyly said.
"I know!" Rory slammed his fists on the table. "But...the website has meaning to me..."
"All of our precious things have meaning to us." Sam piped in. "The circus I perform in is in danger." Sam played her video. "Everything about that circus...gone!"
"It will be alright Sam." Irene comforted.
"Will it though?!" Sam had tears in her eyes again.
"My collection!" Raj suddenly shouted. "My collection!"
"Why am I not fucking surprised?" Simon replied.
"Can you play your video for us Raj?" Dane asked.
Raj shouted about his collection for a bit more, before playing his video. "I need to make sure my collection is safe!"
"Calm down Raj!" I urged.
"Yes, please calm down." Agreed Dana. "You can't stress yourself out over this."
"My collection!" Raj continued to scream.
"Oh shut the fuck up." Harvey replied. "All of my bikes that I rode throughout my cycling career are in danger of being destroyed, but you don't see me crying about it."
"They don't mean anything to you?" Bridged asked.
"They mean so much to me!" Harvey started crying his eyes out. "I love those bikes!
"Awkward." Rory replied.
"Somebody play his video." Ellen ordered.
While Harvey was crying, Irene took his tablet and played his video.
"Guess he isn't lying." RK stated.
"I'll go next." Bridget said sadly. She played her video. "My entire portfolio of graphic designs, literally everything I ever created ever, Aqua Tail said he would delete everything!"
Bridget started crying, Irene and Dana got up to comfort her.
"This otter for sure knows where to get us." Henry chimed in. He played his video. "The fast food company I work at, not just the store, the whole company, apparently Aqua Tail said he can get it shut down."
"How could he even do that?" Raj asked.
"No idea, but it definitely scares me. I love that company!" Henry started to cry as well and then got up to hug Kirsty.
"Get off of me!" Kirsty threw Henry to the ground, where he continued to lay there crying, Dana ran over to help him up.
"Keep it moving." Ellen ordered.
"I'll go next." Kirsty brought out her video. "The retail store I work as an assistant manager and have worked my hardest in all of my life. But unlike Henry's video, mine only said the store I work at would be shut down, not the whole company."
"That is strange." Gavin replied.
"Perhaps making each precious thing to us equal wasn't Aqua Tail's intention?" I suggested.
"I admit, I would be torn if my store got shut down." Kirsty continued. "But I could transfer to a new store, even if I had to start at a lower position than my current one."
"My turn!" Sapphire said. She played her video. "The laptop that I write all of my film reviews on. I would be so devastated if it was destroyed!"
"You would actually kill someone over a laptop?" Rory Asked.
"I didn't say that! But I love that laptop! I just love it!"
"Nice to see the princess whore has her priorities straight." Simon snickered.
"SHUT THE FUCK UP!"
"Enough!" Irene cut in. "When will you people grow up?!"
"I got this Irene." Gavin replied. "I'll go next." Gavin played his video. "All of my research I done over the years for my talent, Aqua Tail is threatening to destroy it all."
"Big deal." Harvey replied. "All of your work is on shit that doesn't exist."
"That is-"
"Stop it!" Irene roared. "The next person that starts a fight is gonna deal with me!"
Harvey and Gavin immediately backed down.
"Good." Irene smiled. "Allow me to go next." She played her video. "The forest where I spent a long time living in, which also shaped me into the Ultimate Wilderness Survivor. Aqua Tail is threatening to burn it down."
"That's horrible." I replied.
Irene nodded. "Indeed it is, but I'm trying not to let him scare me into doing what he wants us to do."
"I guess...I can go next..." Miranda stated. She played her video. "Other...movie extras..."
"Are you close with them Miranda?" Dana asked.
Miranda shook her head. "No...I'm not...But...I don't want them...to die...but..."
"They aren't precious to you." RK finished her sentence.
Miranda nodded. "I...I...really don't...have any...friends...from my...work..."
"Miranda..." Dane said sadly.
"I'm sorry Miranda." Sam added.
"Thank you..." Miranda replied.
Even though I was still jealous and angry, I did feel bad for Miranda.
"That definitely is really sad." Kirsty stated. "But also a bit strange that these motives are suppose to get us to kill, yet Aqua Tail would choose something for someone that isn't even precious to them."
Miranda looked really uncomfortable now.
"Let's move on." Dane suggested. He played his video. "The football league where I first started my career as a waterboy. Honestly, I wouldn't want it ruined, but I'm definitely not killing anyone over it."
"Like you could even kill someone." Harvey snorted.
"Shut up!" Bridget hissed. "There definitely is an unbalance here with our precious things, some of our things are more precious to us than others."
"My collection!" Raj cried.
"Somebody save my fast food franchise!" Henry cried.
"God, shut up!" Sapphire complained.
"Somebody should go next." I suggested.
"How about you Donald?" Irene recommended.
Donald nervously played his video. "Mr. Warn!" He cried in his normal voice. "Mr. Warn is in danger!"
"Seriously?" Ellen asked, extremely annoyed.
"Your acting like a faggot over a stupid puppet?" Harvey asked.
Sam smacked the back of Harvey's head. "Show some compassion, damn it!"
"It will be alright Donald." Dana assured.
Donald tried to cheer up, but he still looked really nervous.
"Moving on." Kirsty stated. "We just need to see the videos of Ellen, Simon, RK, and Natalie."
"Guess I'll show you my gold." Simon played his video, which really confused most of us.
"Huh?" Henry asked.
"I don't get it." Rory replied.
"Simon's precious thing that could be taken away is his sense of humor?" Gavin asked.
Simon nodded. "That's what the the deformed otter said in my video."
"But that doesn't make any sense." Irene replied. "How can you take away someone's sense of humor? That isn't a physical thing like an object or place."
It was confusing to me too, but Simon's video was like mine. Aqua Tail had the same device in it that he had in mind.
"What was that device?" Sapphire.
Simon shrugged his shoulders. "No idea, but it will probably help in taking away my dark sense of humor if no murders happen soon and I'm chosen, bitch."
"HEY!"
"Enough of this." Ellen cut in. "Simon isn't the only one with a strange precious thing." She played her video.
"Your memories?" Rory asked.
"This just keeps getting more weirder." Bridget added. "Artistic, but weirder."
"I don't fully understand myself." Ellen replied. "But I imagine that device that Aqua Tail had in both mine and Simon's video has something to do with taking away something like your memories."
"This is...scary..." Miranda shuddered.
"Definitely some more mysteries to add to the list!" Gavin exclaimed.
"Indeed." Irene agreed. "Now we just need to have Natalie and RK go."
"I can go next." I replied. I played my video, which was met with similar reactions as the last two videos.
"Again with this device?" Dane asked.
"I don't understand it." Henry added.
"What have we got here boys and girls?" Donald asked in his Mr. Warn voice.
"Looks like Natalie's video is similar to Simon's and Ellen's." Dana commented on.
"But why is it just those three?" Harvey asked.
"Probably because Ellen and Simon are incapable of having something precious to them, while Natalie is just too boring." Sapphire replied.
Simon, Ellen, and I all glared at Sapphire.
"Sapphire." Irene hissed her name.
"What?! I'm not wrong!"
"Let's just wrap these videos up." Kirsty groaned.
"RK." Raj stated.
Everyone turned to RK, who was sighing as he put his tablet on the table.
"Don't worry guys." RK assured. "My precious thing isn't something like the last three we saw, but it definitely is different from the rest." RK played his video, which was indeed different from everyone else's.
Nobody said anything after RK's video finished.
"Nothing..." I finally managed to say.
"Aqua Tail isn't threatening anything of yours?" Gavin asked.
"You don't have anything precious to you?" Sapphire asked.
"Sapphire!" Irene yelled.
"Don't worry about it." RK replied. "I never was the one to have something like that in my life, which is why I'm not surprised about how my video turned out."
"RK..." I said sadly.
"I said don't worry about it."
Harvey laughed. "Looks like janitor boy is-OW!"
Irene had punched Harvey in the jaw to stop his insult, Dana ran over to check on him. Simon snickered at what had just happened.
"Well, I guess that's everyone." Raj stated.
"What do we do now?" Bridget asked.
"First off, we should talk about if these videos are even real." Kirsty suggested.
"You mean, everything that is precious to us might not be in danger?" Dane asked.
"There isn't any proof that any of our videos are real."
"But can we really take that risk?" Sam asked. "Whoever is behind all of this has already surprised us in so many ways, why shouldn't we believe all of this?"
"Sam has a really pretty...I mean good point!" Gavin blushed. "We shouldn't take this lightly.
Sam giggled at Gavin.
"But what then?" Rory asked. "What are we suppose to do then if we do believe these videos?"
"Kill someone to ensure the safety of our precious things." Harvey replied.
Bridget picked up a plate from the table and threw it at Harvey, but her aim was way off and it hit Dane right in the face.
"Ow!" Dane cried.
"I'm so sorry!" Bridget apologized.
I tried to get up to check on Dane, but Miranda and Dana had already beaten me to it, so I just sat back down.
"Stop this!" Irene hissed. "We aren't going to take this lightly, but one is killing anyone!"
"Don't bother preaching that crap." Ellen replied.
"Excuse me?"
"I already said it before when the killing game was announced that anyone could already be planning a murder, and while so far nothing has happened, Aqua Tail just made the chances of it happening much higher."
"No way!" Henry cried. "No one would kill!"
"Don't be stupid dry cook cock." Simon replied. "You were just bitching about your fast food company getting shut down, as well as most people here are worried about whatever is most precious to them going away."
"Exactly." Agreed Ellen. "Aqua Tail knows how to push people's buttons to get a murder started."
"Stop!" Miranda cried, who now had tears in her eyes.
"Stop this right now!" Sam yelled, who was getting angry. "We can't think like this."
"Settle down boys and girl!" Donald exclaimed in his Mr. Warn voice.
"This is getting too insane for me." I thought to myself as I started to play with my ponytail.
"Wait!" Gavin exclaimed. "I got it!"
Everyone turned to look at Gavin.
"What is it?" Gavin?" Sam asked.
"We'll throw a party!" Gavin exclaimed, while standing up.
"A party?" Irene asked.
"Yeah! This is exactly what we need! We need to have some fun here! We all be so stressed out by the whole situation, so even a little bit of fun will do us good. Plus, it will be both a big distraction from these videos, as well as a good way for us all to know that nobody would even think of murder!"
Silence consumed the patio for a bit.
"I agree!" Henry replied. "A party is just what we need here!"
"Yeah, this sounds awesome!" Rory replied.
"This...will be so much fun!" Sam exclaimed, who got up and did a backflip.
"Looks like Sam is feeling better." Dana smiled.
"I love parties!" Sapphire squealed. "Let's do it!"
"Won't be much of a party with some of these losers there." Harvey replied. "But count me in!"
"We all need to keep up the hard work, but taking breaks are important too." Kirsty smiled.
"This could be fun." Added Dane.
Nearly everyone seemed to be on board with the idea of a party, as well as feeling much better from what we had all just watched.
"If everyone wants this to happen, then we shall make it happen." Irene stated.
"Parties are just so artistic." Bridget added.
"As long as everyone behaves themselves." Donald said in his Mr. Warn voice.
"A party sounds nice." Raj replied.
"Yeah...let's party!" I exclaimed.
"Idiots." Ellen muttered. "You're all a bunch of damn idiots." Ellen then left the patio."
"Ellen...left.." Miranda stated.
"I'm not surprised." Dana replied. "She definitely isn't the social type.
"Who needs that bitch?" Sapphire asked. "We're gonna party!"
"Yeah we are!" Gavin cheered.
"Are you okay with coming Miranda?" Dane asked.
Miranda slowly smiled. "Sure."
I got jealous and angry again, so I started playing with my ponytail to calm down.
"Looks like we're having a party!" Sam shouted.
"What about you RK?" Henry asked.
"I never been the party type." RK replied. "But if it helps out everyone, I can attend."
"It would be best if everyone came." Irene stated.
"Well we definitely can't expect Ellen to come." Harvey replied.
"How about you, Simon?" Raj asked.
Simon shook his head. "Fuck no, you people and a party don't mix. And even with me there, it still won't be anywhere close to a fucking party. I'm out, fuck this shit." Simon left the patio.
"Asshole!" Sapphire shouted at him.
"Don't worry about him." Kirsty assured.
"Who needs those two anyway." Rory stated. "We got plenty of people here for an awesome party!"
"Rory is right!" Gavin exclaimed. "We'll have it here on the hotel patio, as well as inside the lobby!"
"Anywhere else that can be used for a location?" I asked.
"The many hotel bedrooms this hotel has to offer." Harvey replied winking at me.
"Ugh!" I thought to myself.
Irene slapped Harvey in the face. "Don't be a pervert!"
"The patio and lobby will be enough!" Donald exclaimed in his Mr. Warn voice. "No two people need to be alone in a bedroom!"
"What are you? Some kind of actual faggot?" Harvey asked.
Bridget punched Harvey in the back of the head. "Shut up!"
"We sure do have a long way to go with getting along." RK stated.
"Let's focus on the party, people!" Gavin exclaimed. "We got a location, we just got to set everything up for the party."
"What do we need?" Dane asked.
"Food, music, decoration!" Sam replied, very excitingly.
"I'm sure we can find a lot of that at the supermarket." Dana replied.
"Maybe Aqua Tail will help." Sapphire suggested.
"You want...Aqua Tail to help?" Miranda asked.
"Hey may be forcing us to kill each other, but he did say to live our normal lives on this island." Rory replied. "I'm sure he would help us with the party."
"When are we gonna have it?" Kirsty asked.
"Tomorrow night!" Gavin replied.
"Yay!" Sam cheered.
"So soon?" I asked.
"Yeah." Gavin replied. "Don't worry guys, this will be the best party ever!"
"Looks like we're having a party." Irene smiled.
Pretty much all of us were excited about having a party that would hopefully distract us from our entire situation, and of course those horrible videos. This should be fun. We all decided to call it a night and headed back to our huts, though once again we forgot about a bathroom buddy system.
