DizzyBonnett POV-
With a final glance at Fox, I turned back the way I came, following the now dried trail of blood. I paused when the blood went off in one direction, but there was an unexplored opening right in front of me. I knew it was stupid to travel in unknown areas, but you know, YOLO.
I walked around the iron door that stood in front of me, stepping to the right where a wall would've been. There were a set of broken ladders that lay against the wall on my left. I lay a tentative hand on one of the wooden bars, testing its strength.
It seemed to hold well enough. I reached up to the furthest bar and put my foot on one, then pulled myself up.
Creak…
"Oop…" My eyes widened, waiting to see if the ladder would break. After seeing nothing happened for a few seconds, I used my other arm to pull myself up again.
Creak…
Thanks Aventa I'm small because otherwise this ladder would break.
I continued climbing the ladder until I reached the top. I had to jump onto the clay floor without falling back down. I fell onto the floor with an oomph, winding myself.
"Of course." I thought to myself, "I always have to trip over."
I jumped up, rubbing the grit and dirt off my knees and palms before having a look around the room I was in.
It seemed like it used to be a conservatory; there was a glass roof and the room was shaped like a dome. This room, too, had been left over the years. There were mounds of dust and dirt, vines had invaded and taken over the walls and there were plants sprouting from cracks in the floor and walls.
I was just about to step forward when I saw something glistening between the tufts of grass… I jumped over a mound of dirt onto my hands and knees and and grabbed the object. It was a gun!
It was a stone one, one of the oldest ones you can get. I looked at it in awe… I was lucky to find a gun without having to look for more emeralds.
When I was about to put it in my holster when a crunch was heard. It sounded from the edge of the room, like a foot stepping on tough leaves or a stick. I pulled the gun up straight into the direction of the noise.
"Out." I ordered to whoever was hiding. "Get out or you'll get shot."
Another crunch of leaves, my eyes flickered to a dangle of vines. A small hand appeared out of them and pushed them apart, leaving a wide gap in the wall. Two dark blue eyes poked out at me, watching half terrified, half curious.
"Out of the vines." I demanded.
The person fell out in such a haste, they tumbled down onto the dirty floor.
"Midnight." I nodded, in recognition.
"Dizzy." Came a muffled reply from the floor.
"Get up."
He jumped up, hands in the air with a fearful expression. "It's not me. I swear."
"Yeah, now why do I not believe that?" I snapped. "I just so happened to have passed-" My voice broke, "a body. And you're in a room right next to it."
Midnight's eyes widened, "I swear! I've been here the whole time collecting emeralds!" He shrugged his leather backpack off his shoulders and pulled out four emeralds. Four. That meant he had to have been here farming them, otherwise he wouldn't have had so many. I lowered my gun, still watching him half-heartedly, just in case he'd whip out a knife and stab me.
"Yeah ok… Whatever." I mumbled out. He closed the clasp then swung the bag back over his shoulder, before giving me a wide grin.
I shook my head. "No. But we can narrow it down to some players. Who's in it?"
"There's me, you, God, Fox, Adam, Absol, Sophie… Um…" He counted off his fingers. "Sarah, Fairy… I think that's it…"
I nodded, "Well it's not me or you. Adam and Fairy both have guns. Fox, God and Sophie are dead. That leaves…" My eyes widened, trailing off.
"Sarah or Absol."

"So, do you know who it is?" he asked.I shook my head. "No. But we can narrow it down to some players. Who's in it?"
