Okay Motive time! Hopefully this chapter comes out earlier than the last one. This chapter will bring in a very good, brand new Motive I came up with! Hope you guys like it!
Episode 1- Welcome to Total Despair: Of Flesh and Blood
Monobear stood in front of several screens, piled on top of each other. They showed several different locations at once. The only other being in the room was a costumed figure, they sat in a chair in front of the screens as well. The screens provided the only light in the room, as the bear and mysterious person spoke to one another.
"Yeah, Yeah! I get it!" Monobear said exasperated. "They're taking Forever~"
The figure mumbled something under their breath.
"Well what do you want me to do about it?" The monochrome mascot asked.
The hushed voice of the stranger was barely audible.
"Hmmm. You're right! But which one?"
The person whispered one more thing.
"J-4."
"Oooh, that's a good one."
"Attention Contestants! Nighttime is now over, please live your day to the fullest before you get Murdered! Upupupupu!" The high-pitched voice of Monobear blasted out of the Intercom system.
Several of the contestants rose from their beds and headed towards the cafeteria, some more refreshed than others. Once everyone arrived they ate in awkward silence. After several minutes someone spoke up.
"So like...what do we do now?" Lindsay asked.
"I don't know, the shock wore off and now I think there isn't really anything we CAN do." Noah answered.
"There's no escape, and no one wants to die." Anne Maria said out loud. "So we're really are stuck here forever."
This soured the mood incredibly, as everyone at the table looked around to see what their next course of action would be. Izzy began to fidget in her seat, with nothing to do. Even Justin put down his mirror to look at the other contestants.
"C'mon dudes! There has to be something we can do!" Geoff exclaimed half-heartedly. "I mean, there has to be something we've missed!"
"Oh shut up blondie." Jo said. "Even I have to admit, there's nothing we haven't checked!"
"That doesn't even cover the fact that it's been three days and no one's come for us yet!" Heather added.
"I wish there was something we could do!" Harold sighed.
"Maybe you should try killing each other, like you lovely host suggested!" A despairing voice answered.
"Uh-oh." Katie said.
"Once and for all, we're not playing your sick game Monobear!" Brick shouted.
"Hmph. Weren't you all having a Despairing chat about how there's nothing to do?" Monobear reminded everyone. "Well I was just suggesting that maybe my proposal is just the thing to liven-okay maybe excite is a better word-your lives!"
"Especially since you are all boring me to tears!"
He emphasized by wiping away a fake tear. "All I ask is for a murder, and none of you greedy Nincompoops could even give me that!"
"And we won't give it to you ever!" Bridgette shouted back.
Several contestants agreed, though some were more vocal than others.
"I guess you're right, you wouldn't ever kill someone on your own terms!" The bear said sadly. "So I'll just have to fix that!"
With new excitement, Monobear scurried under the table and disappeared.
"What do you think it meant by that?" Eva asked in a hushed tone.
The speakers crackled to life as a second announcement was made.
"Attention students! Please head towards the gym for a very special surprise!" The bear shrieked excitedly.
"Well, I can safely say that can't be good." Trent sighed.

Everyone left the cafeteria and filed into the gym, the stage had returned but redecorated. Streamers hung from the ceiling as balloons bobbed. The stage had a colorful podium, and next to it was a roundish object hidden under a white sheet.
Monobear popped out from behind the Podium, wearing a blue suit and holding a Microphone in it's paw.
"Greetings Contestants today is a very special day!" Monobear announced.
"This oughta be good." Jo snarked.
"You see, I came to the realization that escape isn't motivating you enough to kill! So what do I do?" Monobear held out the microphone to the audience.
"Fuck off?" Heather answered.
"Nope! I decided to make another Motive for you all!" Monobear shrieked in delight, before pulling the white sheet off the mysterious object. It was a spinning wheel, like the ones you would see on gameshows. It's as colorful as a regular one, but instead of money signs there more pictures of...miscellaneous body parts at the end of each "slice".
A nose, a finger, a foot, a kidney, an ear, and more were shown on each slide. Monobear gave it a test spin, the wheel spun for twenty seconds before a slice landed on the large red arrow. It was a slice with a picture of a hand. He pulled out random envelopes from behind the wheel and shoved them into everyone's hands,
"You see, in 40 hours I will make you all spin this wheel. Then you will read your envelope and finish the sentence you randomly received with whatever body part you land on!" Monobear explained. "For example!"
Monobear tore open a spare envelope and read it out loud while looking at the wheel.
"'Monobear will cut off your...Hand!'"
*Shing!*
*Riiip!*
*Plop.*
In a matter of seconds, blade-like claws unsheathed from his right paw and he sliced off is left one. The stuffing flew as the felt limb dropped to the floor. Some people shrieked, but almost everyone was startled.
"Good thing I'm a Bear, and I can't feel a thing! But you bastards are human so you'll probably in horrible pain." The bear turned away so only his blackened side faced the crowd.
"I would also like to point out that I won't kill you, I'll even provide medical assistance once it's done! But of course there will be scarring and lots and lots of blood!" The Bear giggled. "Upupupupu! Sadly if I see a dead kid before your time limit is up, I'll have to cancel it!"
Wait, so whatever these cards say...you're going to maim us?!" Noah said out loud.
"Dude that's messed up!" Geoff shouted at the bear.
"You're jus threatening us into killing each other! What is wrong with you!" Bridgette screamed.
"My therapist asks that a lot. So treat your body parts well, you might not see them again for a long time!" Monobear paused. "Speaking of which."
A panel on the ceiling opened up, and a digital clock descended from it. It displayed "40:00" in red numbers, but then it changed to "39:59" the next minute. And continued to tick down.
"So if any of you bastards want to keep your bodies in good order, I suggest killing someone in the next thirty-nine hours!" Monobear said.
Monobear picked up his severed arm and once more the monochrome plush disappeared behind the podium. Everyone looked in disbelief at the clock.
"This is messed up beyond belief!" DJ said startled.
"Well it looks like we have two choices, either wait until that bear plays with us before maiming our bodies...Or avoid dying at the hands of one another." Alejandro said stiffly.
"Monobear gave us an impossible decision..." Brick muttered.
"Fucking Dammit." Jo muttered.
"He can't be serious...right?" Sadie asked.
"Yeah, this seems too big of a motive to be the first one to use! Like I expect this in at least a month!" Harold stated. "Do you think he's in a hurry?"
"Whatever it is, I don't feel like doubting what he says." Eva sighed.
"I can't do this anymore!" Zoey shouted shakily. She quickly dashed out of the gym towards elsewhere.
"Zoey!" Mike Shouted, running after her.
"What do we do now?" Lindsay asked.
"I...don't know." Anne Maria answered.
Everyone stood still in silence as the severity of the situation had sunk in. No body was willing to admit that this motive changed the game, and they were all in danger. Some contestants left and returned to their rooms, others stayed for a few more moments before leaving as well. Everyone knew one thing.
Something bad was coming.

"Sooo. What's your thing with, Zoey's her name right?" Katie asked.
"It's a long story." Mike answered solemnly.
Katie and Mike sat at one of the smaller tables in the cafeteria. The only other people who were there were Izzy and Owen, though they were busy in the kitchen.
"We have time, I think." Katie said.
"It's just, I thought Zoey and I could work things out...but he wouldn't let us."
"Who?" Katie asked.
Mike looked to his side in silence, before turning back to Katie.
"Someone who I thought was gone, but won't leave us alone."
"An ex?" Katie guessed.
"No, worse. I just wish...I wasn't like this." Mike said.
"Like what?"
"Nothing. I shouldn't even be telling you this." Mike got up and started walking away. "You wouldn't understand."
"Well you didn't have to be rude about it." Katie said out loud. Before she got up as well and entered the kitchen.

"Look at how much stuff is in this fridge!" Owen shouted happily.
"Look at how many knives this drawer has!" Izzy gleefully said, juggling about thirteen knives.
"Izzy put those back! Eva would kill me if you cut off a finger!"
"Aww." Izzy sighed, before huffily dumping the knives back into the drawer.
"Am I interrupting something?" Katie asked as she entered.
"Nothing really." Owen said, making sure his forty-eight decker sandwich didn't fall to the ground. Izzy was currently gnawing on some ribs that were about as big as her head.
"Yeah." Katie said. "You're leaving?"
"Yep, bye." Izzy said, cartwheeling out the door. "Come on Big O!"
"Coming Izzy! Nice talking to you Katie!" Owen said, following Izzy.
Katie simply went on with her business.

Justin sat at a small table in the corner of the room, farthest from the others. Justin fixed his hair while looking into his mirror, he had to be sure he wasn't getting stress wrinkles. He may have a pretty face , but he wasn't stupid. He knew one of the others would break with a motive like that given today. He looked over and saw Brick, Lindsay, Bridgette, Geoff, and DJ. The cafeteria was fairly empty, not many people came by to have dinner.
Bridgette and Geoff talked to each other, before falling into a tight silence. Dj quietly ate and Brick seemed to be waiting for something.
"Bummer." Geoff said. Accidently cutting the silence.
"I hope everyone's okay..." Bridgette started. "We're the only ones here."
"Everyone's probably jus stressed about the motive it gave us." DJ said.
"Affirmative. I'm sure everyone will still come back here in the morning." Brick said, though slightly half-hearted.
"Even you guys don't think everything will be find right?" Justin said. "With a motive like this, along with leaving this place. One of us will be practically doomed."
"Don't be so pessimistic Justin!" Bridgette scorned.
"Yeah, harsh Dude!" Geoff chimed in.
"You all know I'm just telling the truth right?" Justin said sternly. "Trust me, I don't want it to be like this."
He paused in thought and closed his eyes. "But it will happen." Justin got up from his seat and left
Everyone at the table were hopeful that no one would murder, though there was a tense feeling in the air.
"Maybe...he's right. God he really is like Noah." Bridgette said.
Owen and Izzy casually walked into the cafeteria, holding ridiculous amounts of food. Katie followed soon, though she went straight to the door without saying a word to the others.

After Mike, Katie, Owen, and Izzy left the cafeteria several more people entered. Mostly to eat or chat. Everything was tense due to the motive. Eventually the daily announcement arrived.
"Attention Students! Night time is upon us! The cafeteria is now closed, please have some decent rest for an eventful day tomorrow!" Monobear announced.
Everyone got up and left for their rooms giving awkward goodbyes and stiff replies.

Well, here's the motive guys. It's big but I hope it makes you all excited! The next chapter is body discovery, and it'll probably be shorter than this already shorter than average chapter. So will the investigation probably. But don't worry I'll make sure the trial is long and fun to read! Since these chapters are easier to write then FTE I'll probably get the out before next week!
Now tell me, who will bite it? Who do you think will die or do the killing? Maybe you can even guess how the victim will die! Please leave your guesses and theories in your reviews.
