Taur had slept very comfortably in one of the convenient guest bedrooms, and after spending her day quietly engaged in business affairs (she still had that train company, after all), she decided to head downstairs to join the other for dinner.

---
As walked down the hall, she noticed a trail of coins. Odd, she thought. Where did these come from? She followed them into another one of the convenient bedrooms.

"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" she shrieked! "Not again!!!!"

For the body of Elena Murray lay on the floor, with a massive blow on the head.

---

First Victim: Elena Murray
Time of Death: 5:04 PM

Nurr came to with a start and a breathless "Sorry! Sorry," realizing that she must have been dozing off and having nightmares of past years because someone was scream----

Someone was screaming.

Oh no! Not again... Leaving the preparations for dinner in the hands of Yusef (really, he did so much! He wouldn't ever snap, would he..?) she ran in the direction of the noise. Flying up the stairs, Nurr came face to face with Taur and a very dead Elena Murray.

"ALREADY?" she practically shrieked. "What did we just do, set a record for earliest killing??" Of course, Taur had nothing to do with it. Of course. She tried to breathe easier. It didn't help.

Well I was going to take a nap... grumbled Little John as he rolled off the sofa and padded out into the hall to see what all the screaming was about. Hauling himself up the stairs he looked with no small surprise at the body in the bedroom.

However, he started when he felt someone come up behind him. It was Robin, and he was staring wide-eyed at the body. "Somebody's dead," he pronounced solemnly.

John rolled his eyes, "Honestly, Robin, you can be so childish sometimes." He turned the other people in the room having overheard their conversation, "This has happened before? Why were we not notified? Also, how?"

Moriel was in the library at the time when she heard the screams. She thought to spend a little time this evening with a book. She liked to read a little every day, but sometimes, that did not happen.

Taur's screaming pierced though the entire house. "Oh goodness," she said. She knew what had taken place. "A murder already?"

Moriel set her book down on a table and quickly headed for the upstairs where the screams were heard. "Taur!" She called as she climbed the stairs. She turned the first door at the top of the steps, one of the convenient bedrooms. She walked through the door. "Taur?" She repeated. "Oh dear!" She said as she saw the body of Elena Murray.

Feleciano was in the kitchen making some pasta when he heard a blood-chilling shriek. "What was that?" And he ran to to source of scream, tripping over his own feet. He quickly opened the door, and there, to his horror, he saw the body of Elena.

He glanced nervously around. "S-she's just sleeping, right? She's just sleeping, that's it." He received no answer. Taur looked up at him sadly. "She can't be.." he choked out the last word, "dead..." Feleciano started to cry, tears flowing freely down his face. "B-but, she was so nice! I talked to her last night in the game room! It's not fair!"

And he fell to his knees, buried his tear-soaked face in his shaking hands, and just cried.

"I second that motion," said Robin Hood from his place behind Little John. "It seems kind of creepy to have a dead body in the house."

Little John rumbled something under his breath that sounded something like, "There shouldn't be a dead body at all, in my opinion" and turned to the headless man. "Would you need my assistance to... relocate... the body?"

He sniffed and wiped his eyes. "Yeah, I guess we should bury her and have a nice funeral for her." He sniffed again. But his mind flooded with terrifying thoughts of how she might have died and hoped nobody else would be killed. He looked down at the body and noticed a large lump on her head. He also saw a bit stick peeking out from underneath the bed, as if someone had hidden it... he shuddered.

"Ah....ah yes..." Nurr said, still trying to wrap her mind around her lovely party going to shambles. "Yusef, come and--oh, yes, he was in the kitchen."

"You called?" came the tortured voice of the butler. "Yes! Oh, good! Yusef, please take Elena...somewhere else."

Yusef pulled a few convenient members of the staff in to help, and they processed down the stars and, well, somewhere else. Nurr gazed distractedly down at where the body was. "Hit on the head...hit on the head. It can't be suicide, it had to be murder, but who? How? Did they plan it? Did someone want to revenge themselves against Elena? That doesn't make sense. We all just arrived!" Realizing people were staring, she tried to pull herself together.

Morgana stared off into the distance, shocked at the events that had taken place. A small party at a nice country house, and someone has been murdered already?! she thought.
Who would kill Elena? She had done nothing to anger any of the guests... not that she knew of anyways. There was just a scream, then everyone rushed to see what happened. Oh, this wondering is doing nothing to help. She joined the others in searching for clues as suspicions ran through her mind.

Slenderman was in the middle of a tap dance to some charming music when the sound came. The scream. A bit curious, Slendy teleported to a corner of the room, taking in the sight. A woman was dead. Not in a very bloody way, but Slendy had to appload the clean and quick work the killer had done.

Although had he done it, he would have taken the body to the woods, not left it here to be found. He was the reason missing people went missing and were never found again.

"Very interesting," Slendy said, finally saying something. "Who ever did it, I would like to give them a hug. Quick work, she never saw it coming."

Moriel glanced over at Slenderman. She was not sure about everyone else, but his last words made her a little uneasy. Very strange...no. More rather disturbing words to say. "Quite the choice of words there, Slenderman," Moriel said, eying him carefully. "One would think them rather suspicious, wouldn't you think?"
