Chatterbox: Pudding's Place
You sit in
You sit in your classroom at school, bored out of your mind. You doodle mindlessly in your notebook as you stare into space. Your eyes dart around the classroom, looking for something, anything, to do. A flash of maroon outside the classroom door's small window startles you.
You jump out of your seat when the teacher's back is turned and race to the classroom door, which opens seemingly on it's own. Thank goodness that the janitor just oiled the door's hinges! You close the door quietly and crouch, looking for the source of the flash. Your eyes quickly zero in on the maroon envolope on the floor, expelling maroon glitter from it's flap.
You grab hold of the letter and a blast of maroon glitter hits you square in the face. You blindly open the envolope and, as you wipe glitter from your eyes, see a starch white note that reads:
Dear CBer,
You have been invited to stay in my luxurious resort, called Resort O'Booke, for as long as you wish... or as long as you stay alive. You will be treated to a suite which you do have to share with fellow CBers, CAPTCHAS, and AEs. This suite will have several studies, bathrooms, and private libraries, but only one sleeping area.
Will you accept my generous offer to stay in Resort O'Booke? I am eagerly awaiting your reply!
XOXO,
Paige O'Booke
P.S. Any murders are not the fault of me or my staff and cannot be charged to Resort O'Booke.
P.P.S. You cannot refuse this. The glitter will blind you in ne minute unless you say yes out loud.

Why doesn't Bookworm have an admin? Is she the murderer?
(July 2, 2016 - 1:58 pm)
Erm, anyone there?
TOP!

Ooh, cool! Are you... Jack-a-nat?
(July 2, 2016 - 11:01 am)
I've always been interested in the Bermuda Triangle!
(July 2, 2016 - 1:10 pm)
No, I am not Jack-a-nat.
@Skylark- You will find out... all in good time!
@Admins- I'm sorry if I offended you with my description of you with the blank stares and all, but you guys actually play a big part later in the story!
We're not offended all all, Paige. We're honored to have a part and look forward to the rest of the story!

Thanks, Admins!
Day three~
Paige O'Booke sat at her desk and heaved a sigh. She needed the CBers to have loved the resort when they returned home so she coud get more business, and they couldn't exactly do that if they were all dead!
Paige stood up and snapped her fingers. She disappeared from her private study in a poof of maroon glitter and reappeared at the head of the enourmous table in the dining hall, determined to catch the murderer.
"Today," she announced to the CBers and their counterparts seated at the table, "we will go to the pool!"
"CHICKEN FIGHT!" screamed Fudimo. "Mei and i will destroy you all!"
"Wait, what? When did I agree to that?" Mei asked her AE.
"Um, no destroying each other, please," Paige said.
"Awwwww..." all the AEs pouted.
"But there is a diving board!" Paige said desperately. "You can splash each other!"
"YAAAAAAAY!" yelled all the AEs in unison. Rufus pointed at Sandra and made a slashing motion across his throat. Sandra narrowed her eyes and stuck out her tonge.
"To the POOL!" yelled He min. Everyone abandoned their meals and rushed to get their bathing suits on.
The murderer smiled as they ran to their suite. The pool...perfect....
After everyone had changed and left their suites to go to the pool, the murderer lingered in the lobby. After making sure everyone else had left, they ran up to one of the suites and grapped an object, slipping it into the pocket of their swim suit as they ran to join the others.
-----
"Geronimo!" yelled Rufus as he jumped off the mini cliff diving board, splashing water all over Sandra, who was complaining to Paige O'Booke about how her bathing suit didn't have wing holes.
"Why you little-" Sandra screamed as she launched herself off the diving board. She landed with a splash that drenched every CBer within 20 yards.
Finn was next in line. He had never been on a diving board before, being a huge black aussie and all, and he found that he loved the anticipation he felt as he stood on the top of the diving board.
Finn took a deep breath and was about to jump when a bronze knife impaled itself in his gut, splattering his black coat crimson. He toppled off the diving board and plunged into the water.
Skylark screamed and jumped into the water, hauling Finn's body ashore. "Noo... Foo-foo..." Skylar sobbed.
Fudimo stepped in front of the crowd of CBers and their counterparts. "This was no accident."
"No duh," muttered Booksy Owly.
"Only one person here packed a knife, if I remember correctly."
"How do you know that?" Paige O'Booke asked.
"Oh, I just looked through your mail," Fudimo replied.
"Wow," whispered Marie.
"But that isn't the point. The POINT is that one of us has become a murderer. My hunch is that the murderer is the owner of this knife, who is..." Fudimo walked over to Finn's body and yanked the knife out of his gut. He held it to the light and read one CBer's name engraved on the hilt. "...Bookworm."
"Bookworm?" Skylark gasped.
"No, I-I swear... it wasn't me! I would never-"
"That's enough out of you!" Paige growled.
"Hey, why don't I ask my admin for an alibi? Oh, that's right, I don't have one," Bookworm said with mock surprise.
Paige O'Booke flicked her wrist at Bookworm and she disappeared in a poof of maroon glitter. She turned back to the CBers and snapped, "All of you, go to your suites. I think you've had enough pool for the day."

Kate-the-Great screamed as she flew into the swirling clouds of the Bermuda Triangle. She gripped Ellak tightly as she swirled down... down... down...
The last thing she saw was the chopping, swirling waves, then blackness.

R.I.P., Finn. Rest in pool.

Awesome! Keep writing!
P.S. Cardinal says: "ucww". Hmmm... I don't think there's a university in California that's called 'WW'.
(July 3, 2016 - 8:09 pm)
Alright, you're in my ski lodge. That's all I know.
(July 3, 2016 - 8:20 pm)
Happy fourth!
No new installments today, maybe tomorrow.
(July 4, 2016 - 10:28 am)
Mei- Perhaps I am not in your ski lodge... perhaps I am an anonymous person who is reading your ski lodge...

Day Four, Part One~
In the early morning of the CBer's fourth day at the Resort, all the residents of the Green Suite woke up to the sound of chains creaking.
"Oh my gosh!" shrieked Chili in a high pitched, squeaky voice. "Uh... I mean, oh my gosh." Chili said, attempting to correct himself in a deep voice that sounded ridiculous coming from a miniature chihuahua.
Each person in the Green Suite found a frozen bow and arrow locked in firing position chained above their beds. The bow was positioned so that when the ice melted, the arrow would fire straight into the CBer's hearts.
Hemin began cutting the chains with a knife that was stained wth a suspicious red liquid and looked suspiciously like Bookworm's knife. He muttered extremely unflattering comments about murderers as he unlocked the window and tossed the chained and iced bows and arrows out.
"Now we know that the murderer couldn't have gotten in through the windows. They were locked!" Mei observed.
"Yeah, I could have told you that," Chili said. "I locked all the windows and the door last night."
"How? You don't have thumbs. And you're, like, 6 inches tall." Hemin grumbled, slouching.
"Admins, did you see anyone come in overnight?" Mei asked.
"No." the Admins answered in unison. Even though only three people remained in the Green Suite due to Will T.'s death, four Admins still watched over them. Will T.'s Admin seemed to do absolutely nothing besides stand around and stare blankly at everyone, so the CBers in the Green Suite wondered why Paige O'Booke kept him around. She probably could easily have made him disappear just like she did to Bookworm. Speaking of which, where was she?
Anyway, the CBers all recieved exciting news at breakfast: the murderer was someone in the Green Suite.
-----
Kate-the-Great was sitting on a sandy beach just outside the Bermuda Triangle when she heard it. Someone, a girl, most likely, was screaming "AAAAAHHHHHH!" A fuzzy blur fell from the sky and landed with a splash by the beach on which Kate-the-Great sat. She ran and pulled in a girl with soggy brown hair and purple glasses. "Are you..?" Kate-the-Great asked.
"I'm Bookworm." said the girl. "I don't think we've ever been officially introduced, so, hi. I'm Bookworm."
"Yeah, I know. You just told me. I'm Kate-the-Great. I was too late to get to the library, so..."
"So, you're trying to get to the Resort? You know, I just came from there. Everyone's convinced that I murdered this aussie named Finn, and Paige O'Booke kicked me out. But I can help you get back. I think there's a detail in your books that you missed..."
