Chapter Two: Broken "Magic can do much but not that. Dead is dead." --Rumplestiltskin
The atmosphere in the diner grew more and more explosive as people began shouting out suggestions for where to begin the search for Brooke and Steph's killer/s.
"I think we ought to take a good hard look at the people who are new in town!" Kallie shouted, and shot a pointed glare at Ash.
"I bet it's someone you wouldn't expect! Like...maybe Shan!" Stephanie threw in her two cents.
"We should definitely investigate Heather -- no one has a wang that size!" Nicole couldn't resist an apprehensive glance in Heather's direction.
Everyone continued calling out suspicions, and it seemed as if nearly everyone had someone pointing a finger in their direction. Lindsay and Rin exchanged bewildered glances as they listened to everyone shouting, and decided not to get caught up in the fervor. Instead they started a side conversation about what flowers they would plant in their gardens in honor of Brooke and Steph. They got so involved that they became almost as animated as the crazy mob.
Crystal, watching from a corner, was becoming anxious as she watched people shout at each other. Any minute now someone was going to punch someone -- she just knew it. She bit her nails and wished Steph or Brooke was here to diffuse the situation. But thinking about them only brought her to the point of tears again. And she hated the feeling of tears on her face.
Suddenly two voices rang out above the rest.
"Where is Joe?" Ash demanded.
Gabby moved to stand next to Ash. "Yeah, where IS he? The last time I saw him was a few days ago, and he was complaining that Brooke wouldn't book his band for a gig at the cafe."
"You know, I don't think Joe was happy with Steph, either," Ash mentioned. "I heard him talking recently about how he wasn't happy with the way Steph treated a buddy of his, some Korean kid."
Suddenly the mood in the room shifted from every-man-for-himself to everyone muttering about Joe. Where HAD Joe been lately? The babble grew louder and angrier as everyone realized that no one had seen him for at least two days. That was suspicious! In fact, that was as good as proof!
"Let's go find him." Gabby started for the door. "We'll ask him to his face why he thought he could get away with it!"
The mass of people inside the diner started cramming through the door, with a lot of pushing and shoving, and maybe a little hair-pulling (Crystal hated hair-pulling). When they emerged into the parking lot, they were stunned to see Joe just pulling up in his car. A few calm words could have pulled them back from the brink, but instead Ash growled, "Let's get him!"
As Joe turned off his engine, he was startled to find someone opening his car door, and then suddenly several hands grabbed him and roughly dragged him out of the car. "What's going on here?" he tried to ask, but the crowd of people were already shouting and shoving him around.
"Tell us why you did it!" Eliza cried, tears streaming down her face.
"You're a monster!" Aryn aimed a punch at Joe's head. She hit Nicole on accident, but it only seemed to stoke Nicole's anger at Joe.
Soon everyone was hitting, kicking, tearing at Joe's clothes, and wrestling him to the ground. Bewildered, he wondered if word had gotten out that he had quit the band last night. Surely his fans weren't THIS rabid.
Michelle and Molly got in a couple of hard blows to the head, and as Joe slipped into unconsciousness, his last thought was that if only Brooke or Steph were there, they would have been able to calm the mob.
The crowd kept attacking Joe for several minutes after he stopped struggling. Finally, Becky shouted at everyone to stop, and the blows slowed. The heaving, sweating crowd began to calm down. After a few moments, everyone was still, standing and staring awkwardly at Joe's broken body. What had they done?
Suddenly, Shan wandered out of the diner. "Hey, what happened? I was in the bathroom and missed the whole thing." She gasped as she caught sight of Joe, his blood pooling beneath him on the asphalt.
When several people explained what had happened, Shan frowned. "Joe? He couldn't have killed Brooke and Steph. He was at his last gig with the band last night. They were still playing when the bodies were discovered."
Shaken, the townspeople looked around at each other, all now avoiding looking at Joe's unfortunate, and innocent, corpse. What now?
The town has FAILED. (And Crystal hates failure.)
Joe was Leroy.
DAY ONE has now ended. NIGHT ONE is beginning. Mafia, message me your kill choice and who will be performing the kill. Townies with powers, message me your choices for your night actions.
Night will end no later than 10PM EST Sunday.
