It is a normal Thursday. James and you are sitting in the office playing "CSI" on your Playstation when suddenly the phone rings. You: "Dr. Peringiosa, what can I hunt for you?" Caller: "This is chief Green Clound from the Sioux Tribe Lakota People in South Dakota. We have a problem and were told you could help." You: "Tell me more." Green Cloud: "In our village teenagers keep disappearing during nights leaving their parents worried to the bones. When they show up in the early morning they make the impression of being under a magic spell and cannot tell where they have been and keep missing school. One parent now has died while trying to find his kid. We believe the trickster spirit Iktomi to be responsible." You: "Sounds interesting. Me and my collegue will be with you by tomorrow morning!"

While they kept chatting about the town and the Jackalopes the daughter of the Major comes in carrying a little bunny on her arm. Major Hase: "Gentlean, this is my daughter Mary.

<<set $holdtoto to false>> <<if $whiskey is true>> Mary: "Ok, maybe next time." You and James get up and shake the Majors hand. While you do that you glance out of the window and a shiver wents down your spine. James sees it too. James: "Oh my god. The whole yard is full with Jackalopes." You: "I was so heedless. The whiskey must have lured them." Suddenly you hear a scream. It is little Mary's voice. She drops Toto who immediatly starts running to the back door. Now you see that he has little horns on his head. He was infected with the Jackalope virus." [[Next]] Detective Award Score: <<print $award + $award2 + $award3>> <<else>> You and James get up.

Sadly there is no next. You have no change to escape. James, the Majors family and you are being attacked by the Jackalopes.

In my app it says severe thunderstorms for tonight." You: "Perfect, that is when the Jackalopes mate. While they have fun, we can attack them. We need all men with guns we can find.

Once you have all the hunters gathered up. There is one important thing you should not forget to tell them.

Who cares about the horns? If they need to grab the Jackalope by the horns to protect themselves, they should. The Award Committee won't like to see that. Good thing you have James! James: "And remember everybody, you cannot make a single sound. The Jackalopes imitate peoples voice and get us all confused. We need to stay focused!"

You: "And remember everybody, you cannot make a single sound. The Jackalopes imitate peoples voice and get us all confused. We need to stay focused!" <<elseif $important is "Turn off all lights!">> That is wrong. You will need lights so everybody can see what they are shooting and do not accidentally shoot other hunters. In the thunderstorm the Jackalopes might not even recognize the light. The Award Committee won't like to see you fail here. Good thing you have James!
