A/n: The third chapter, the suspense, and the murders. You have to love murder mysteries. We are, once again, starting on where we last left off. Well, I hope you enjoy! P.S: They ARE on an island.

To my kind editor:

Thank you wwB for editing my last story! Yeah, I fixed the part were Stonez was supposed to choke, I had to read it over. Thanks for pointing out those errors!


Zoe fainted at the sight of Stonez dead, and on the floor.

" Stonez is dead! " Styx shrieked. Then she thought about this for a second. " Wait, Stonez's dead! " Styx smiled brightly.

" Dude! He's your brother! " Mac looked at Styx.

" I know! He's gone! I don't have to deal with him anymore! " Styx jumped with glee.

Nat walked up to Zoe and started slapping her. " Wake up! Ivy, help her. " Nat moved away as Ivy tried slapping her harder.

" IT'S NOT WORKING! " Ivy panicked. Dib went over to see if Zoe still had a pulse. Dib sighed and pushed her hand away. " She's dead too. "

" What? " Nat started panicking with Ivy. Luna walked over and started to cry. Zag was sitting there, trying to put the head back on the Indian statue that broke earlier. She then realized that another Indian was broke and pouted.

" It's broken! Again! " Zag complained.

" Well, everyone's dying right now and all you seem to care about are your Indians! " Styx yelled. Zag thought about this a minute.

" Eh, how many people are dead? " Zag asked, plain as ever.

" There's X, Stonez, and now Zoe. But, only two of your Indians are broke. " Mac thought about this.

" Interesting... So, it's like the Indians are breaking when each one of us dies off. " Dib said.

" Ooo! It's like the poem! Stonez choked, and Zoe fainted, or overslept. " Zag pointed out. Everyone's eyes went wide.

" What's the next part of the poem, Zag? " Nat asked.

" Well, it's, eight little Indians traveling in Devon;One said he'd stay there and then there were seven. " Zag said.

" Devon, what's that? " Ivy asked.

" Devon is a place in England! " Zag said happily.

" Why would someone go to England though? " Styx asked.

" Hmm, I don't know. " Zag shrugged. " But, the guy stayed there and I'm guessing he died. " Zag looked at them.

" Maybe... Just maybe. " Mac thought even more than before.

" Look! The sun's rising. " Styx pointed outside.

" We must've been awake longer than usual. " Dib said, rubbing the tiredness out of his eyes.

" Probably. But, who wants to come with me outside? " Styx asked.

" Me! " Everyone shouted.

" Ok then, come along. " Styx said, gesturing for them to follow her.

A little while later, when the sun was fully up, they all arrived at the coastline of the beach. Zag laid on her belly and started playing with the statues. Ivy studied a tree from the far distance, there was a beehive there, a place where she could get honey. Nat left somewhere, as so did Dib and Luna. Styx sat there and did nothing.

" Well, this is more boring than I expected. " Styx said, talking pretty much to herself. Styx got up and left, Zag following behind. Ivy soon went back to the house too. Mac sat there, all alone. He heard a voice and he shot up.

" Who's there? " Mac asked. He turned around in relief. " Oh, it's just you. " Right then, he was struck in the back of the head and killed with a life-savor.


A/n: * Gasp * Who had done it? We'll never know. I had to kill out two people for this chapter, I thought just Zoe would be kind of boring. Well, I picked at random, again and Mac and Zoe were the culprits for this chapter. There are also less words in this chapter because of the characters that were killed. I didn't think they would count as main characters and their deaths weren't that interesting. I promise the next chapter will be quite a show! I hope you enjoyed!

To wwB:

What did you think. I hope I can get up to ten chapters soon! Well, who do you think is the murderer? I hope you liked it!
