☆ Town of Salem ☆

[ NIGHT FOUR ]

Smarty's View

"I, Dlive the Mayor, show my certificate of release from protection! I hereby announce that I am out in the open as the Mayor of this town!"

All of us were shocked; dumbfounded. Why would Dlive just give in to Mr. Sark like that!? He revealed himself as mayor and now that's he's done that, he can't be healed by the doctor - me! We have no bodyguard, I can't heal him, and our jailor can't keep him in jail every night, they have better things to do.

"There's our mayor..."

"...we're goners now."

"He's so reckless..."

"...poor Dlive."

"Dlive, why...why did you do that?" I finally asked while everyone else finished whispering.

He hung his head and didn't bother to look me in the eyes. I could hear a small whimper skim past his lips, "For Entoan... I did this for Entoan, Smarty." He stated with not a sign of hesitation. "I know he'd want me to protect his honor..."

I sighed and backed away from Dlive. I guess I wasn't going to be getting in his way anytime soon... I might as well let the mayor do his job of voting people he suspects up.

"So, Mr. Mayor. What do you plan to do now that you revealed?" Jack, aka. jacksepticeye, asked.

Dlive didn't have to speak to answer. His eyes did the answering seeing they immediately strayed away from Jack and onto Mr. Sark. I frowned as Mr. Sark smirked at Dlive, almost as if he were awaiting his punishment. I couldn't put my finger on it, but Mr. Sark was a bad man. Was he going to use Dlive's anger to get his way? What was happening...

Chilled pulled my arm back and shook his head at me, he knew exactly what I wanted to do and he wasn't going to let me do it.

"Smarty, it isn't worth it. Don't make any stupid mistakes man...we can have any more mistakes." He muttered out, sadness flashing in his eyes for a second.

My gaze on Chilled softened. I totally forgot about Ze, but he's right... I shouldn't be doing any stupid shit, he doesn't want to lose me or any of his other friends now. He's already lost Ze night one. He doesn't want to lose me or Galm.

"I know... I'm sorry, Chilled. I'll try to make better choices..." I replied.

He smiled down at me and ruffled my hair, "Thank you."

Again, just like yesterday, I felt someone's eyes burning the back of my head. I glanced around and then looked over my shoulders. No one was behind me. Okay, this is starting to creep me out. Who the hell was staring at me?!

Pushing the weird feeling away, I bit my lip softly, shifting around nervously at the awkwardness in the air. We were all waiting for Dlive's move. As the mayor, he could practically lynch anyone he wants to. Even me.

I gulped. Dlive looked around, "As you know, I'm the Mayor of this town. And at this time, I would like to hear any leads you have! Spit it out!" He shouted to the townies, shocking most of them.

Many of townies shook their head sadly, indicating that they had nothing to say. Even Chilled did. I bit my lip in anticipation. When was someone going to spit out their leads? I know Chilled might not have any, not any good ones that'll serve a purpose anyways. I don't have any good ones either...damn.

Dlive nodded, "Alright, I see that no one seems to have any leads or information. That means I've been led to..." Everyone shivered at his next words. "Random lynching."

"Dlive...a-are we really going to go that far?" Jack asked nervously.

Dlive simply nodded and glanced around, staring at everyone as if he was choosing who to lynch. He looked at Chilled. My heart dropped.

"Chilled...your role or you get lynched." Dlive said, regret swimming in his eyes. "I'm sorry, please just tell us and you won't get harmed."

Chilled and I gasped. No way! He was thinking about lynching Chilled!

Chilled gulped and stepped forward, all eyes on him, "I'm sorry as well, Mr. Mayor, but if I say my role...it's immediate death for me." He explained.

Dlive smirked, I caught a glimpse of a tear dripping down the side of his face. "You're right...you're absolutely right there, Chilled." He muttered out.

Chilled sighed in relief and took a step back. I smiled and chuckled nervously.

"Wow, he really pulled your leg th--" I started.

The town's bell rang, signaling it was judgement time.

"I am going for Chilled." Dlive said, glaring at Chilled. "For avoiding my question and not giving me his role."

Nanners frowned, "Cathy...what do you want to do?" He asked his girlfriend.

She shrugged, "He is the Mayor, Adam..." She said, raising her hand. "I vote him up.

Adam kept his hand down. "I'm sorry, but I can't do it, Cathy. He's a friend." He muttered out sadly.

Cathy shook her head and smiled at him warmly. Telling Adam that it was okay.

Gassy raised his hand rather eagerly, "I vote him up as well."

Mr. Sark then raised his hand and Jack followed his lead. We needed one more vote to send Chilled on the stand. Chilled was sweating buckets from my side.

Galm, Ohm, Nanners and I didn't vote. If one of us voted, Chilled was most likely going to be hanged.

I looked over at Galm, he looked like he wanted to raise his hand. I shook my head at him, tears brimming my eyes. He couldn't, Galm couldn't vote up one of his own friends!

Galm smiled at me softly and placed his hand back down at his side. 'You owe me' he mouthed. I nodded rapidly and mouthed a 'thank you' to him.

The town's bell rang once more, but this time they were a bit louder. Judgement time was over; the voting period was over. Chilled was safe. I let out a huge sigh. So did Chilled. Chilled turned around and wrapped his arms around me, shocking me.

"Mother of god, Smarty. That was scary as fuck..." He breathed out shakily. "Thank you...thank you for not voting me up."

I smiled and wrapped my arms around him, burying my face in his chest. "That's what friends are for Chilled..." I muttered, the soft feeling of butterflies filling my stomach.

I frowned at this. If only this could be Galm holding me, making me feel so special. Chilled let go of me and kissed my forehead, causing me to jump at his sudden action.

"I'm sure Ze would appreciate you helping me stay alive. Thank you again." He said, patting my shoulder. "I'll see you tomorrow, alright?"

I nodded with a smile, "Yeah..." I muttered.

He walked off to his house and waved back at me. I watched him enter his house, the soft sound of his door closing echoed throughout the town.

"I should head home too... It's getting late. " I told myself, walking back to my house beside Chilled's.

Right as I opened the door, I heard a few words that sounded like they were aimed for me. No...they were.

"Smarty... You shouldn't get too close. You're mine."

I shuttered and spun around. No one was there just like before. I scrambled my way inside my house and sat down in my desk.

Now who the fuck was I supposed to heal? Myself? Chilled?

~*~ Smarty's Will: Doctor ~*~

N1- Went to heal Chilled, just in case.

N2- Again, healed Chilled. I'm sorry.

N3- ...Self heal, I don't feel safe. They're watching me. Rb'd

N4- Chilled; spotlight was on him lost of the day.

I sighed and leaned back in my seat. I really hope that I don't make a mistake today. God dammit Chilled. Please be safe.
