Eugene Markovitch, the town's resident doctor (and crazy Russian) was skulking around Chris's house. They had killed one of the mafia's allies today. He had examined the body himself. And Chris's hand had been the one to pull the lever and do the deed. Eugene was sure that the mafia would make their move against Chris tonight, now that they had reason.
At least, that's what he thought until he felt a pair of strong hands wrap themselves around his throat.
Gasping for breath, Eugene heard a soft, sinister voice in his ear. "This is the end for you. And for your little town. You can't stop us, Markovitch. No one can." Quiet laughter filled his ears as the world grew dark around him.

Chris woke up the next morning. He washed, dressed, ate his breakfast, and then went out his front door, wondering to himself why Jesse hadn't woken him this morning. Maybe no one died. Or maybe he finally got to sleep for once. Wrapped up in his thoughts, Chris didn't even notice the body of the old doctor lying in front of his door until he tripped over it. He let out a cry at seeing the corpse. Then he saw the note on it.
Shaken and worried, Chris started walking towards Jesse's house. This doesn't seem like the other notes we've found, Chris thought to himself. He found Jesse sleeping, amazingly enough. I guess enough sleepless nights will do that,, thought Chris. He woke Jesse and explained the situation. The two of them went and found Davis as well, then headed towards the square, a feeling of dread growing in each of them as they got closer.
"Good morning, gentlemen."
Christian Taylor was standing there, on the raised platform. That platform had once been used for speeches; three days ago they had converted it into the gallows from which Alex, Rebecca, and Steve had hung. Christian stood in front of the noose, looking down at them, Simon and Joseph on either side of him.
"So it was you three. You orchestrated all of this. You killed off innocent townspeople. And for what? So you could take over this tiny place?"
Chris was beside himself. It was all he could do to keep his voice from escalating into a scream as he confronted Christian. Christian, on the other hand, was completely calm. In fact, he was chuckling, which only served to infuriate Chris further.
"WE killed off innocents? You fools are just as much to blame as us. What about Alex? What about Rebecca? It was your hand that ended their lives, Chris. Not mine."
Chris sputtered. He had no retort to that. The Alex's and Rebecca's faces swam before his eyes, giving him accusing looks. He shook his head and looked up at Christian again as he continued to talk.
"It's over now, Chris. You don't outnumber us anymore. We could easily kill you now and move on, if we wanted. But I'm giving you a chance to save yourself. Side with us. Join us and help us. We'll move on to new towns. Bigger ones. Ones with more..." He licked his lips. "...Victims."
Chris spat on the ground.
"You're sick. Sick, twisted, and evil. You and your goons won't be moving on to new towns. The only place you're going is hell!"
Chris ran towards the platform, yelling. In one swift motion, Christian and his men drew their guns and placed a bullet in each of the three remaining survivors. Jesse and Davis collapsed almost immediately and lay still. Chris, however, kept crawling. He dragged himself slowly toward the platform.
"W..hy...?"
Christian jumped off the platform and walked towards him, gun in hand.
"Because we can."
One final shot was the last thing Chris ever heard.

GAME
OVER
MAFIA WINS!
Yoshi died last night. He was Eugene Markovitch, the doctor. His death reduced the player count to 3 mafia (yes, there were 3, not 2 you sillies) and 3 townies, which means a mafia win. Congrats to Mira, z0mgc00k13, and Darkmaniak on the win. The survivors were as follows:
Mira: Christian Taylor, the godfather (godmother?).
z0mgc00k13: Simon Kimble, a regular mafian.
Darkmaniak: Joseph Knox, a regular mafian.
xBTAx: Chris Hutchinson, the cluegiver (not that you guys USED THEM PROPERLY <_<).
imjon: Jesse Waters, the detective.
Kurtle: Davis Tucker, a regular townie.
I'll put up another post after this one with the game logs and the CORRECT cluesolves. Also with some comments about what when wrong, what I pineappled up (a lot), what other people pineappled up (not as much), etc.
At least, that's what he thought until he felt a pair of strong hands wrap themselves around his throat.
