"A pile of blood"?
Sometimes I accidentally put down wrong words that kind of sound alike when I'm typing. That was supposed to say in a
pool of blood.
ROUND TWO: NO PHONE HOME
Grayman, a middle-aged man with (no surprise) gray hair, was on his knees, messing with machinery. Another person was sitting in a chair with their feet on a desk, sleeping. Grayman whistled a tune and after a few minutes, he was done with the machinery. "Hey, this thing is fixed up. Just a problem with the flux capacitator."
Ju Ju, a light sleeper, was immediately woken up. He got of the chair, rubbed his eyes, and pressed a button. A screen in front of him lit up with the words "PLEASE WAIT" in blue.
"You'd think that with all of this money invested in the project we could have afforded a better SateCam than a 2147. My dirt poor brother has a 2154 at least..." Ju Ju grumbled as he looked over a stack of papers. The papers summed up what he was supposed to inform President Summers - Jeff Ridley was killed and they were being hunted. All Ju Ju wanted was to get some sleep.
Ju Ju then starting hearing noises. The sound of a voice - Grayman's - yelling and the sound of feet running. Then a loud thump. "Grayman?" Ju Ju called out. "Hellooooo....Grayman? Where are you, bu-"
And then the wolf jumped out at him. All Ju Ju saw was a flash of brown sending him flying into the chair. The chair broke once Ju Ju hit it and the wolf laughed. "Boy, you humans sure are light."
Ju Ju got back on his feet and groaned. The wolf started to run over to him. Thinking fast, Ju Ju picked up one of the legs of the chair and hit the wolf in the face. The wolf fell to the floor and Ju Ju beat it, leaving it howling on the ground.
Ju Ju caught his breath, hit the wolf again, and walked over to it. He asked "Who are you?"
The wolf curled over and smiled. "I'm just a wolf." He then sprung up at Ju Ju and knocked the leg out of his hands. Ju Ju, lying helpless on the ground, moaned as the wolf dived at him and started to claw.
He dragged Ju Ju's corpse and slumped it up against a wall. He then picked up the chair leg and smacked him squarely in the face, mumbling "Dirty rotten waste..."
The wolf then noticed the blue screen and landed a punch in the center of it. The wolf then trashed the machinery beyond repair. After the machinery was destroyed, the wolf noticed that Ju Ju's nametag was lying on the floor, the bottom left corner covered in blood. "James Jackson Masters. Codename Ju Ju Master. Well, I guess you won't be needing this, Jimmy." The wolf laughed as he ripped it up.

The bodies were discovered early in the morning. Inverse had noticed that Ju Ju was not in his cabin and went over to The Contact Building to see if the papers (and Ju Ju) were there. He soon discovered a grisly mess - Grayman was lying on his stomach with claw marks on his back and the entire Earth Contact room was trashed with Ju Ju dead against a wall. Inverse observed the room for a few more seconds before he sprinted out to call a meeting.
"Two more of our men were found dead in the Contact Building." Inverse called over the crowd. "Jim Masters and Jack Greyman. Their bodies are being inspected right now." The crowd started to talk again.
"But we do have good news." Inverse yelled. "The fruit, which we are calling Baneberry, has developed into the serum we can use to inject into a person. Our scientists say that this serum is capable of killing wolves upon contact. Unfortunately, they slaso say that it will kill normal people upon contact too. Now, we have no fair way to decide who deserves to be injected with this...the council has agreed to leave it up to the people."
The crowd began to talk again, some showing signs of worry, others calling out their suspicions...
Ju Ju Master was killed. He was a human.
It is now a serum round. This means it is time to lynch. This rounds ends on Monday, October 15th.
