Toontown Showdown

[PointMaid]

Wendy: 4; No pokeballs in the Maintainance and Cleaning buildings.

[Kennifer]

>Check near the pool, wasn't Ash near the pool earlier?

[PointMaid]

Wendy: 5; No pokeballs near the pool.

[Kennifer]

>Check the entire area between the pool and the maintenance buildings.

[PointMaid]

Wendy: 10; You find something in one of the archive rooms. It's another pokeball. You get hit with it on your head as you knock it down from a shelf.

[Kennifer]

Wendy will

>Bring the Pokemon over to the others and open it, is there a Pokemon inside?

[PointMaid]

Wendy: 6; Yeah, that's a Gengar.

[Kennifer]

"Hey Ash, care to explain this?"

[wingedcatgirl]

Ash looks shocked.

"Wh...?"

"Gengar, Gengar," Gengar gengars.

[Kennifer]

"Why did you kill Mr. Hill? He might have had some old-fashioned views but he wasn't a bad guy at all."

[wingedcatgirl]

"... the best..." Ash is mumbling, barely audible.

[Kennifer]

"...I'm sorry, what was that?"

Also yeah while she's at it...

[Dookie]

“HA! I KNEW IT! GUILTY! GUILTY! GUILTY!”

/Vote Ash

[wingedcatgirl]

"I'm going to be the best!" Ash shouts. "That's the rule of the game! Mr. Hill was nothing, nothing! I didn't have anything against him in particular, but someone had to die, and Moona beat me to Adeline last night!"

[Kennifer]

"Yeah, well now you're going to be brought to justice!"

[Dookie]

“The best isn't who gets their own cartoon. It's not who kills someone else without getting caught. It's being good even with a temptation. You are not the best. You are like the others were. Blinded by an opportunity to kill others to satisfy your greed for fame.”

He goes back to chewing his bone.

[PointMaid]

Well, you're welcome to your opinion on that, I guess, Lotta says, passing by with a rack of dinosaur costumes. There are now seven of you still participating. Nominally, anyway. So with the two of you voting for Ash, you'll need two more votes for a majority.

[Florien]

Kelly, who still hasn't solved the mystery of the open cage door, instead grumbling loudly at anyone who walks by, suddenly shouts.

God Damn Modern Pokey Men (Latest Fad)! Turning Innocent Kids into Chinese Spies!

[PointMaid]

Well, well! It looks like we have an execution! Should we allow Ash some final words?

...Of course, you can keep trying to figure out who killed Paddy in the meantime. If that's something you care about.

[Kennifer]

"Oh, I want to find out who killed Paddy too for sure. But we needed to get Mr. Hill's killer today so they didn't go free. We can execute two in one day, right?"

...okay Wendy you're sounding a little too excited about this.

[PointMaid]

Lotta nods. You can execute someone as long as there's an outstanding murder still to be solved. To put it another way, the number of murders equals the number of executions you can vote for, unless the murderer has already gotten away by laying low for two days.

[Kennifer]

Wendy nods.

"Okay, I'll help figure out who killed Paddy as soon as this is over, then. One thing at a time."

[wingedcatgirl]

Ash is just screaming incoherently about how he's the best and nobody can stop him. His Pokémon, especially Gengar, are trying to comfort him, but he doesn't seem to acknowledge their presence.

[PointMaid]

Ash's Execution

Lotta snaps her fingers, and Ash is suddenly caught in a nightmare land. You can tell that because it's dark and shadowy. They clutch Pikachu close. They're surrounded by hundreds of angry Ghost type pokemon… evolved, strong Ghost-types. Maybe a few they could handle, but this many, steadily advancing… Ash is clearly terrified. They clutch Pikachu even closer.

But Pikachu is terrified as well, pika pika!, and sends off one of the strongest electrical sparks they've ever done. Ash is charred, and falls to… a charcoal pile. Pikachu just faints.

And Lotta snaps her fingers again. It was a dream. But Ash is as white as if it were real, and falls over… dead.

There's a quiet, sad pika, pika.
