The group looked among themselves, occasionally coughing, sneezing, or fidgeting, but nobody moved for a good 30 minutes. They were all huddled around the deceased body of Cogito Ergo Sum, thinking of what to do. They quickly figured out that Cogito was charged with keeping Tierce's gun safe after her death, and finding his deceased body without it means that the remaining killer now possessed a pistol, and the thought of such thing made them all shiver. Slowly but surely, the group pulled Cogito's drenched, but now pale head out of the toilet and dragged his body to the storage room, where they laid him down next to what they believe was Tierce.
Returning to the middle of the lab, they sat down, all woken up and aware. They looked among each other and it all hit them at once. Two of the stools were empty, two people were killed over the course of less than 12 hours. They all knew beforehand of who to prosecute, and after a decent, but very short debate, they all turned their heads and stared at DoomYoshi, who was sitting up straight, hands folded neatly and comfortably at his lap, and blinking quickly. For someone who was just accused of killing two people, Doom kept his composure and didn't even flinch. He sighed and stood up, strengthening the ugly creases that formed on his jacket, and gave himself up willingly.
The group approached him and slowly searched his body, finding nothing but a pen, a phone, a wallet, some cards, and a peculiar flashlight. None of those items incriminated him as the killer, and since he did not possess the clearance card, nor Tierce's pistol, DoomYoshi was off the hook. As the group apologized to the man who a couple of seconds ago was their main suspect, started to choke. Doom dropped his belongings, and as his phone cracked on the floor, he fell to his knees and grabbed his throat with both hands, gasping for air as if he was being choked. The group backed off, unable to deduce what was happening to the man. All they could do was watch, there was nothing they could do.
Doom started to cough up blood, and as he spat it out, he seemed to lose his strength and he collapsed like a sack of potatoes face first into the floor. Like every other person who died in the lab, Doom's body rendered itself limp, and a small pool of blood slowly formed around Doom's face. The group watched in total shock and amazement, unable to find their voice or make a move. Nobody knew a thing, nobody knew why or how DoomYoshi just randomly died right on the spot and coughed up a pool of blood.
Kneeling down, they checked Doom's body and find a small dart stabbed into Doom's back, just below his shoulder blades. When inspected a bit closer, the dart was used to deliver some kind of a liquid, as the injection it carried was completely empty. Whatever killed Doom, be it a poison, toxin, element, whatever, it was delivered through that dart and killed him in a matter of seconds. They quickly figured it was put on him when he was being checked over, or when people weren't looking, but one things for sure, that Doom wasn't the killer, and the real killer injected him when the others realized he was clean.
The group sighed and they all got up, make a four pointed circle around Doom's body. The group was cut down to four lonely members right there. They arrived to the lab as a group of seven, eight if the super cool sexy awesome Dr.Venmar is counted. In a matter of a day or so, three of their fellow students have been killed in some fashion. They all went to school together, and now they were killing each other. They looked among each other, unknown of what to do.
" This is horrible... we're being cut down like dogs now "
" What are we going to do... it's just the four of us now... "
" We rest, but we have guard duties, shifts, we can't have something similar happen during the night like what happened to poor old Cogito... "
" I have a bad feeling about all of this... "
