The tension in the air was palpable. Everyone in the theater knew the players had lost good guys for nearly nine straight phases (minus one for the no-lynch on the fourth dayphase). Not even the master was talking, bringing an even more suspenseful air over the entire theater.
In the end, the player called Nobody Special broke the tension by claiming, "I am a one-shot doctor and I protected panzerjager night 1"
As the crowd collectively gasped, NS looked to his other players, expecting some sort of confirmation. In fact, he almost looked a little smug upon the reveal, as if he had just done checkmate in chess (or narrowed it down to one or two moves before that).
However, everyone else remained silent. NS's face slowly lost the smugness and the certainity, being replaced by worry and a frown. "What?" He demands. "You don't believe me?"
And then, just like that, four of them vote NS out of the game.
"...Damm-" is all NS gets to say before he drops down the shoot and a dinging sound like a bell is heard. When his platform rises, the red words of his role are brightly written as the crowd erupts into cheers and applause and the contestants all let out a breath.
"What luck!" the master exclaims. "Just when they needed it most--and with some certainly unintentional help from their "friend"--the town has finally managed to knock one of the imposters out of the game! But one may still remain, and it may be an even harder uphill battle."
The stage darkens as the audience chatters about the recent turn and what may be the final night actions of the game are played out.
Nobody Special,
Mafia Godfather
, has been lynched Day 5!
Night 5 begins now. All actions must be sent in (expired on 2012-07-25 20:51:21) or by 8:45 PM on July 25th, 2012.
