By now, the group of survivors is small indeed, and not a lot of time is taken up in calling roll once they have assembled. It's no surprise that there's one fewer trainers present than their should be, given that yesterday's execution was a flop, but it takes a little while before the group can figure out the identity of the missing trainer. In the end, the group realizes that it's Capitain Jay, someone not heard from in quite some time, who has apparently attracted the Mafia's ire.

A bit perplexed, the group splits up--at this point, this means striking out alone--and sets up a search. At last, a shout is heard from the southern quarter of the city and the trainers converge at a run, dreading the scene that they know they'll find. And indeed, it isn't pretty; something rather large and possessed of more teeth than most people would care to think about has apparently decided that Capitain Jay's corpse would make a tasty meal, and what little is left of him is pitiful and ragged. There's no question--the Mafia have taken another victim.

Capitain Jay is dead. He was not Mafia.

Forty-eight hours for discussion.
 
Well.

Okay, situation: if we don't kill a Mafia guy today, we'll be outnumbered by tomorrow when they kill someone else. So.

The two people I'm most suspicious of now are Involuntary Twitch and Grass King. Less so Grass King now; I'm thinking maybe the Mafia didn't kill him last night in the hopes that we'd jump on him for accussing Prettzel. Involuntary Twitch spoke up yesterday only to refute her nomination, and support my nomination of Grass King. So... I'm hesitant to nominate someone, because if we're wrong now, it's over. So if anyone has any better ideas, please speak up. I nominate Involuntary Twitch
 
The remaining cluster of trainers is quiet and tense, trainers glancing at one another, but none offering a nomination. The executioner waits calmly, as unperturbed as ever by the humans' behavior. At last, it is Chiropter who breaks the silence and lays out a nomination. As everyone else proves too wary to challenge it, it is in the end Involuntary Twitch, silent and resigned, who is pushed forward to meet the absol's justice.

Once again, though, no justice is done. No more than an innocent trainer is revealed as Involuntary Twitch's magical costume melts away, and the survivors are left to contemplate this very grim portent as the sun slides closer to the horizon.

Involuntary Twitch is dead. She was not Mafia.

Forty-eight hours for night actions.
