## **Killer and Motive**

The killer turned out be Fulvia.

After providing every single bit of evidence against her, Fulvia bursted out into laughter. She said that killing Clemens was her finest moment and that everyone will adore her for this heroic action. We ask her to tell us more, and she said that Clemens hated cats since he was allergic to cat fur, so he went out onto the streets at night and killed every stray cat, which caused a virus to spread, killing all of Fulvia's family and several others. She also said that Clemens was a massive womanizer and kept harassing other girls as well, including her and Petellia. She also said that he was a pickpocket who kept stealing money from everyone, including Freddicus and Caecilius behind their backs.

## **Run While You Can (1/5)**

After Fulvia's confession, we take her to Caecilius, as he's the most influential figure in all of Pompeii. He tells us to lock Fulvia up in the dungeons. We rush back to the time machine after locking Fulvia up, where we see Siobhan coughing in Clive's hospital bed. We ask Clive what happened to Siobhan, and he said that Siobhan must have touched something that someone with this new virus had touched. Clive said that this virus has never been heard of so we have a brand new virus on our hands. We then talk to Fulvia about the virus since she must have experienced it, and she said that everyone in Pompeii called it "The Clemens Virus." She said that many people began to sweat, cough, and then get a slight cold as well. We then return to the time machine and tell Clive about the symptoms Fulvia described, and he said that Siobhan is experiencing the exact same thing. He then said that he needed another type of animal cell in order to fight off the other virus and strengthen the Pompeiians’ immune systems. We ask him what animal cell he needs, and he says that bear cells should do it. We then recall interrogating someone who must have plenty of bear cells: Freddicus. We talk to him and he can't stop coughing. He says that he caught the Clemens Virus and that he's likely to die from it. We tell him that we think we found a cure and that we'll just need one of his bear furs that he recently hunted for. He gives us one he hunted down this morning and wishes us the best of luck. Clive then says he managed to separate a few cells to strengthen thousands of immune systems and he says that all we need to do now is pour them into the water supply. We then realize that Caecilius owns the water supply for the Pompeiians and we explain the situation to him. He agrees to let us pour the liquid Cilve made into the water supply so everyone can be vaccinated from the Clemens Virus. When we come back, we give Siobhan a cup of the water mixed with the particles, and Siobhan begins to feel better in a matter of hours. We then decide to check up on Harlin and Ava and see the progress they made on the time machine. They then take a break to talk to us and Harlin’s hand fades. He then pulls his hand up for us to see and Ava’s jaw drops. Harlin then says "uh oh" before his entire arm fades, then his legs, then his torso, then his second arm, and then his head. We then look down and realize Harlin is nothing but a few pieces of dust. We then get a text message on Ava's phone from Wynston, saying, "Hey besties, you’re probably wondering what happened to your mechanic. Well, as it turns out, Michael decided to play super-spy and went alone to Ancient Greece to kill all of your past selves. He texted me saying he found Harlin wandering the streets of Ancient Greece alone and decided to finish him. His last words were, "Nolan, why?! I trusted you!" before Michael cut off all his body parts and brought his head to me so I could burn it and put it on my wall. We went in two different time machines to Greece. The first was just Michael and the second was the rest of us. Michael’s time machine made it but some basic idiot sabotaged our time machine and landed us in Pompeii."

We said the same thing happened to us, and then Wynston asked if we wanted to see something. We anxiously said yes, before Wynston sent a selfie of himself with Harlin’s burnt head. We turn down the phone and realize that Michael likely targeted Harlin first because he knew that if the time machine was sabotaged, Harlin would be the most likely to fix it. Ava says that Harlin taught her quite a few things on time machines in case he faded and Ava said she would be able to put that to good use. Ava begins working on the time machine and calls Retro over to help her. After, Declan's drone flies towards us and shows us a clip of Declan and Michael arguing. Michael was laughing about Imogen killing Crystal and Declan said that he was going to leave and tell everyone about his true identity, something he should've done long ago. He said he stood around for too long. Michael then held a gun to Declan's head and said "Remember what I told you, Bryne. Cross me and it'll be the last thing you do. I got you this job and gave you a life. The least you can do for me is keep your mouth shut. Now you're sounding as incompetent as the rest of my family. Now I see why Dad left us. All they did was smoke in the backyard while I was out there planning and leading operations. They would only come when they would be able to take over and step all over me." After the recording ends, we hear a “BANG!” before looking outside and realizing that Caecilius' house has blown up almost entirely. We know this can’t be good for history because according to Albert Caecilius' house was the only one standing after the eruption. We laugh at the irony before realizing that Caecilius could be hurt or worse. We rush over to Caecilius' house, and-
