Fanfic: Murder at Myron’s 🦉 Part 3/4

Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Magic Kid. Enjoy!

*poof* Heyo Poptropicans! I come bringing you Part 3/4 of Murder at Myron’s! Read the previous episode here, or if you’d like to go to the beginning, you can reach that here.

Okay so quick recap: A lot of Poptropica’s villains come together for a dinner party at Myron Van Buren’s cabin, but after searching for the host, they find Myron DEAD in the trophy room. *DUN DUN DAAAAAA*

Last episode was a game of “Where’s Myron?” but now it’s time to figure out who, out of the choice of many dangerous unpredictable villains, killed him. Can Merlin figure out who the villain of villains is before they take another victim?

Perhaps this episode will be the answer…

Murder at Myron’s

Part 3/4

Pandemonium.

Black Widow’s scream reached the dining room and brought in a rush of people, spilling in through a door and crowding the entrance of the trophy room. Everyone gathered around Myron’s body, whispering loudly and shouting questions repeatedly until someone answered it.

Winston went over to investigate the commotion, and seeing his master’s body, he quickly sat down in a nearby chair with a small, “Oh, dear.”

“ALRIGHT, WHO DID IT?” Director D shouted over the noisy crowd, already exhausted from the arguing that was happening.

Everyone clambered to answer.

“It wasn’t me!” Isabella, the chef, said.

Daphne shouted over the noise, “MORDRED AND BLACK WIDOW WERE IN HERE FIRST!”

“Don’t look at me, I didn’t do it!” Mordred protested after several heads turned to him.

“To be fair, neither did I!” Black Widow added.

Gretchen argued back. “You two were in the room first, you both had opportunity.”

“But what’s our motive?” Black Widow shot back. “I, at least, had no desire to murder Myron Van Buren. I swear, I just found him like that! Mordred, on the other hand—”

“Excuse me?!” Mordred said. He was about to argue but was cut off.

“I think it was Moreau, she hasn’t said a WORD since entering this room, unlike everyone else,” Daphne accused bluntly.

“That’s MADEMOISELLE Moreau to you,” she replied coldly. “And silence is no admission to guilt. Would it be impossible to believe that all this noise began to give me a headache and I would rather not contribute to the tumult?”

“Oh.”

“Who said ve vas murdered? This could have EASILY been an accident!” Count Bram wondered.

“The Villain Saga” – Episode 9, Part 1

(Table of contents) (See previous)

FADE IN.

INT. EREWHON PRISON –  AFTERNOON

At the lunchroom. DR. HARE and CRAWFISH are sitting in their own corner, set up specifically for the “higher security” villains, both with bowls of food that probably just barely pass FDA standards. While they were allowed into the main kitchen area for a while, it seems this is being done after the two “escapees”. None of the food has been eaten, and the two just sit facing each other, heads slumping from sleepiness.

DR. HARE finally flops to the table, his ears touching his food, although he doesn’t seem to care.

DR. HARE

*yawn*

What…a weird week…

“The Villain Saga” – Episode 8, Part 1

FADE IN.

EXT. ??? LOCATION – EARLY EVENING

The episode opens on a foggy day—but not near Erewhon Prison. No, this is in a land far, far away from that rocky outcrop in the middle of a vast ocean. Tall grasses sway with the weight of dew in the evening fog, and the sound of sheep can be heard in the distance.

A young boy sits in the field, playing a tune on a fairly simple, small recorder, stopping every few notes to jot down in a notebook with a piece of charcoal. It’s only got a few pages, which have been written over back and front and in every blank area. It looks as though he made it himself with whatever he could find.

BOY

Once, in a faraway land…

CUT TO inside the building. BLACK WIDOW is being led back to her cell.

Once they reach the doors, the guard pulls out his key, letting WIDOW back into her cell. He’s about to head out, but then he hears strange, clanging noises from RAVEN’S cell.

GUARD

What are you doing?

He knocks on RAVEN’S door.

GUARD

Hey!

More noises. The GUARD unlocks it and peeks inside–

FADE IN.

INT. UPPER FLOORS OF EREWHON PRISON – AFTERNOON

RAVEN and WIDOW are both sent back into their cells, RAVEN holding another pie plate. A few days have passed since the last episode.

The guards who brought them up head back to the elevators. The two prisoners stay silent, listening by the doors as the elevator descends.

Once it’s gone:

RAVEN

Finally, they got chocolate this time!

WIDOW wipes some crumbs off her black suit–most of the characters are still wearing their signature outfits, with jackets or name tags or some other identifier over them. After all, no point in looking recognizable if you can’t ever escape.

WIDOW

I think I’m going to get…hypoglycemia, was it? Those things have so much sugar.

RAVEN finishes the pie plate and tosses it to the side of his bed. A fairly respectable pile of tins has formed there.
