As people talk, Danni's voice comes on over the speakers throughout the train.
"Attention everyone, the train will now be diving underwater. Please take a seat during this time as to limit any injuries or illness. The pressure may be intense."
A few minutes later, the pressure is felt. Similar to taking off in a plane, the pressure change causes ears to pop and a slight feeling of nausea. Faintly, the sounds of screams of agony can be heard as well, but that's surely a figment of their imagination, right?
Hours pass, lunch is eaten and more games are had. Laura and Lance spend most of their time in their room while Simon works hard at the kitchen and Danni makes an appearance from time to time to check on everyone. Outside, a faint light shows glimpses of the dark undersea. Flashes of scales and seaweed whip by, but it's hard to get a good view of anything really.
Dinner comes and as everyone is sitting down to Simon's all-day preparation, Danni notices two people missing. "Simon, would you mind fetching Laura and Lance? It's our first night. I think it'd be better if we all were there."
"Sure thing," Simon states as he takes off away from the hot stove at last.
People begin eating and a feeling of unease settles, but is easy to ignore for the most part. The rhythmic sound of the train going over rails can be heard louder than usual, and is that the sound of the wind? Weird.
"Aaaahhhh!"
A scream echoes down the hallways.
"What was that?" Danni asks before making her way down as well. Others follow and as they pass the viewing room a shocking sight can be seen.
Trees are starting to appear through the dark murky water.
And the occasional glimpse of something even more unbelieavable.
A train rattling alongside the Storming Fleet.
The group arrives at the Room 1 and the smell of blood is immediately noticeable.
"What the hell is going on?" Danni states with alarm.
Simon Keyes is dead on the ground in the room.
"LANCE! HOW COULD YOU LANCE!" Laura is kneeling on the ground, holding the deceased man's body. A single wound is on Simon's chest.
"Me?" Lance declares. He's holding a bloody knife in one hand, looking furious. "You're the one who stabbed him! I-I had to wrestle the knife from you!"
"Whooooo? Murderer... killer.... punishment...."
Faint whispers can be heard in the room as all the doors seal and a spirit forms between the two Amanos.
"Whoooo killed this man... tell me so weeeeee maaaay punishhh them. All you have to do... is point at the culprit...."
It's voice is faint and cracked, but distinct nevertheless as it wraps its hands around both Laura and Lance's throats. "Whoooooo?" it asks again.
Welcome to the first "Event" of the Phantom Train
Considering the situation, it's obvious the killer is one of these two. One will be voted off, the other will not. You have 24 hours to decide.
Here is what you know:
(Warning, Laura Amano's description contains hints of abuse if that bothers you)
