Bittersweet Candy Bowl

looks over at the silent miss Fernandez and nods, puts knife away

“sorry to disturb you miss Fernandez, Just showin the whats what and all that, nothing for you to worry your pretty little head about”

Moves to the side of the tent leaning against it and keeping one eye open to his surrondings.

“you wont get another outburts like that miss no worries”

*Sighs* Thank you McCaughey, now can we please take Miss Kaydee down from there?

/Amarilla smiles broadly at Aiken, in an attempt to convey her thankfulness. She looks away as soon as they approach the body, however. Retreating slightly, she enters Suellen’s tent to see how she is doing./

*Looks around and finally points to Paolo and Mike* Okay then, will you two please remove her from the tree? We’ll have to do something with the body, we don’t want animals to get it after all…

Remove the body?
The girls dead she’s not trash!
We should at least make a grave fro her or something, it’s not like she asked for this to happen.

“that bloods going to attract animals soon, and we clearly cant bury her because that would damage any evidence”

looks at the trees and at a nearby sleeping bag

“turn that bag indie out so the water repeling outerlineing is on the inside, wont rubaway prints that way, we shall RESPECTFULLY!! lay her to rest in there and, now poeple bear with me now, Hoist the bag into a tree nearby so animals wont get it, it will have to do untill a proper burrial can be arranged”

As horrible as it sounds, that’s exactly what we need to do.

(just popping in for a moment)
Aiken has the right idea, we need to preserve the evidence, but just leaving her here is disrespectful and dangerous to us.

Tsk fine if it’s really what you people want to do to the poor girl so be it.
I assumed a hunting trip was meant to be for hunting animals but if we have to do this to keep them away why should I fight such logic?

“animals would mess the body, besides the smell would have already given our position away to any bear within a 4 mile radious so if your worried about hunting you’ll get a chance. besides you should be worried about your own ass”

turns the sleeping bag inside out and removes the cooking poles gently lowereng her into the sleeping bag and removing the gag in her mouth and placing it down in a bowl brought from the tent

“there now anyone goin to offer to help me get her into the trees!”

(Yeah sorry if I haven’t been all that active this time around. Feeling… off the past few days. Don’t think I’ll be able to get into this one as much.-Bribri)

No no Raquel is NOT just getting up. All that bloody yelling and screaming would wake up anyone, particularly when you have ears THAT size. But…. she didn’t stay around to make a show of the scene either…simply walking out… seeing the body with wide eyes and quickly shifting away back towards her tent.

Right this minute? She’s leaned up against one of the trees, near her own and Jennifer’s tent, her fur a little frazzled thanks to her skipped morning brushing session. Just… frowning… looking damn well pissed off, but a heavy sniff now and then indicating some sadness here and there.

“Okay…. she was a GIANT bitch…. but nobody deserves that…”

“right no ones willing to help as usual, for someone such as myself who is used to being in the backround this is annoying being all front and center like this”

removes shirt stained with blood from moving the body, ties an rope to both ends of the sleeping bag and starts pulling the other end. raising her into the air in a laying down position, coming to a rest some 15 feet above the ground to the side of the camp,

“she should be safe up there, safe from evidence tampering at least, rest her soul”
flexes muscles

*rush out of his tent*
WHAT THE FUCK WITH ALL THE SCREAMS AND…
*looks*
hooo…

/thinks: i didn’t even know her, all i know is that, she was a bitch, but it dosen’t matter now, she’s dead
this isn’t a normal murder, who stabs and leaves, all this was elaborate
now the only question i can think of, is, who killed her?/

*walks to the body*
*looking at the body*
sorry i don’t have anything nice to say about you, and you where certainly the definition of “bitch”
all i can say is that you DIDN’T deserve it

/thinks: being rich ain’t easy, specially if you get it my way (illegal), so far i’ve seen people die for money, i even, have to get my hands dirty from time to time.
the fact that she’s dead, dosen’t surprise me, is how she was murdered
there’s a psycho between us
but who?
the inmature of paolo?
the over protective aiken?
the not so rich abraham?…/

” awfull curiious about the body haning there arent you, suppose i’d be the same way if i was nowhere o be seen while a body was discovered examined and moved to a safe location hanging above us eh Augustin, or you could be admireing you handiework!}

puffs out chest

“i’m not saying it was you, but iv’e heard some things about you, people seem to go missing when your involved, i specificly remember hearing about your vegas assosicate found in the desert in a barrel full of scorpions”

shoves Augustin’s chest jostleing him

“stay on your side of the camp Black”

*put cigar on his mouth*
*while calmly screaching for his lighter*
i’ll admit, there have been some “incidents” as you say
but i can tell, none of them where inocent
i came here to have fun, no to kill inocents
i’m not trying to convince you, and i certainly know nobody trust me
*light his cigar*
do whatever you want

Hello? What’s going on? *when nobody responds, he goes to check for himself, and sees the suspended sleeping bag*

…What do we have here?

*Starts to get very scared, hoping that whoever the killer is, isn’t a serial killer*

*With a shaking voice:*

I… who should have done this to poor Shaydee!? Is there anybody between us that would do something lishe this? I don’t believe… but everyone seemed so nice last night! Is the shiller really someone between us?

(I’ll assume my character woke up in time to see the whole thing, I just checked the posts)

@Mitchell: Shaydee was murdered!

“Watch the bag there, it contains the dearly departed, had to get her where animals and other (glares at Augustin) cant get to her, dont want anyone tampering”

runs his hand across his knives handle

“best not to touch her too much eh”

Really?! Well, she has thoroughly irritated a number of individuals, but nothing serious enough to warrant murder!

*Worried that the killings keep happening, decides to check inventory to look for stuff to defend herself with*

*The contents are:
-Small revolver
-Forks (brought just in case they were needed, but used the offered skewers instead)
-Insect repellant
-Small first-aid kit (Contains items such as band-aids, ethanol, etc.)
-Concealed chastity knife
-Digital camera
-Photo album
-Make-up, nail polish and other varied items
*

This is admittedly a horrible turn of events, but if one of two of us is willing to stay back and keep guard on the body and campsite I don’t see why the rest of us can’t spend some time actually hunting.

(I’m somewhat around and am keeping an eye on you guys, but won’t be posting much.)

I’ll… be right back.

*Mitchell hurries back to his tent and unpacks his Les Baer 1911 pistol.*

*As long as this is with me, it isn’t with the killer. And if it goes missing, I’ll realize immediately.*

*He attatches the holster and brings the pistol, along with the three 7-shot magazines he brought as backup ammo, and goes to rejoin the group.*

So, what’s our next move?

(geez i had to back read alot,sorry im so late D: i had to put together a giant fan this morning)

(fuck i forgot mah last name)

(i’ll just assume i was up to see the whole thing)

*feels her holster and feels that her gun is still there*

“ugh,thank god.” she said to herself.

I guess i’ll be needing this afterall..


*looks down at her Anaconda*

*Scouting the area*

Well, I believe we should search for any other clues

*Mitchell catches up and rejoins the group*

*pats himself down to ensure his recently retrieved equipment is secure*

Zeke, I think it would be wise to lock up the hunting guns while we’re not actively using them.

Wait, how exactly was she killed?

*a pause, as someone fills him in on the cause of death.*

Does anyone still have those skewers? They likely have fingerprints on them.

*Wait, we all touched those skewers.*

…On second thought, never mind.

(Wow, very few clues were included with this one!)

*looking at mitchell*
and why the guns?, as you see the one who killed her, didn’t used a gun
in fact he cevered her mouth so she won’t scream, i guess he did.’t used it, because it would have maked a big noise, alerting everyone.

*Looks at everyone*
Well then we need to monitor everybody very closely because everybody was capable of this murder.

(covered her mouth)

Just because the killer hasn’t used a gun doesn’t mean they won’t. And have you not heard of a silencer? Noise scares animals away, too. Some people may have brought one to disuise their position when hunting.

still shirtless and flexing, points at the bowl he put down earlier
“theres the gag from her mouth, i removed it when i secured the body earlier, someone would have to be pretty skilled to move about unhear of in the woods at night, not triping over themselves and snapping twigs left, right and center”


run hand over his knives handle again

“yeah someone shifty who knows how to handles themselves, or someone with outdoors skill”

“Unless someone here is hiding a gun that could be used with a silencer,then the killer is using melee tactics.”

Well, my pistol is silencer-compatible, at the very least. I didn’t bring a silencer, but someone else might have. And I’m by no means hiding its existance.

We need to keep the guns on hand if theres someone running around killing people.
I say we should grab the gear and head to the end of the road.
There should at least be a phone or somewhere safe to stay for a while there.

“could have been a woman, someone discraced and trying to get back on top, simply someone too light who could have moved about unheard. and if this hypathetical she was the killer it would be no problem to use something so simple as a lacy undergarment shoved close to a pistols barrel to become a makeshift silence, muffle the shot with the fabric”

draws knife and jams it into a tree,

“though it could be a laykiller as well, someone getting there sick jollies off”

pulls knife from tree and holds it out in front of everyone before putting it back in it’s sheath

“point is it could be anyone, so stay a distance away from her ladyship and keep an eye out”

*Davion gets his handgun, a Jericho 941, from his tent*

Good thing I brought this then.

Actually Aiken a undergarment wouldn’t work, but a potato might. (Sees everyone looking at her) It’s true potatoes make excellent silencers.

Did you learn that from the people you have guided Mrs. Woods?

@Aiken: A woman? I don’t thinsh there is a woman strong enough in this shamp to be able to lift her body and sshewer it lishe that to a tree. It would reshire more strenght. Lisa seems the only one physishally shapable but… I don’t thinsh she’s that shind of person…

*Stares at Katherine after her comment on potatoes*

*Shruges at David* I pick things up here and there. And actually Miss Sadae, a woman could lift her up and stick her to the tree. I’ve seen a woman hang and gut an eight point deer before.

But surely she was stronger, wasn’t she?

No actually a simple pulley system would enable a woman to lift Kaydee up and then all they would have to do is stick her to the tree and take the rope down.

Well the problem would be rigging the pully system while the victim is trying to escape. Unless she was dead before she was put up there, which implies that the rest was just for show by a deranged maniac.

@Katherine: But… wouldn’t that be more shomplishated, not to mention noisy?

*Checks the area, looking for pulleys, notices none*

Ropes preform wonders Mitchell. You tie and gag her and then the rest is easy. (Lol look at me destroying your theories!!)

“unless the system was riged ahead of time….still seem’s to complicated, killer could have easily used a firemans carry (look it up on wiki) or killed her before sticking her there so she’s couldent struggle, it was either a suprise attack or she knew the killer and didnt struggle…at least not at first, gave the killer ample time to get close to her”

A simple pulley could be made by throwing a rope over a tree branch. We could check the tree for rope burn marks if you want.

I don’t know about any of you but I’d prefer getting out of here alive instead of making theory after theory so I’m grabbing my rifle and then I’m going to try and find some way out of this hell-hole.
Anyone who wants to join is fine by me.

I wouldn’t do that Mr. Butler, you’ll get lost if you run off on your own.
