The Hunger Planes

The Hunger Planes (Case #84, or Case #28 of Pacific Bay) is the fourth case of White Peaks, the twenty-eighth case of Pacific Bay, and the eighty-fourth case of the game.

Case Background
Chief Marquez ordered Amy Young and the player to head to White Peaks' dangerous volcano summit in search for an Osprey Airlines flight reported missing two weeks prior to the events of this case. Amy and the player found Bobby Prince—one of the passengers and Amy's ex-boyfriend—alive, after which Pacific Bay's Mountain Rescue escorted him alongside other survivors to the police station. The rescue mission was anything but a simple rescue mission as the player found the plane pilot, Captain Harry Hugo, hanging over a lava pit like a rotisserie in the White Peaks volcanic summit. To Amy, it seemed that the survivors were desperate as if Captain Hugo was labeled as plausible bait, but to the player, it was declared murder as the victim's face suggested that he was roasted and skinned alive and died a slow but painful death. The player didn't hesitate to ship the body to Roxie Sparks for autopsy.

In the case's shocking moments, Bobby Prince was incriminated to be Captain Hugo's killer after evidence found him guilty of grand homicide.

Amy was aghast when the player found Bobby guilty of grand homicide, to which he thought the player made a mistake, but Amy sought to put her game head back on when she presented evidence of Bobby's guilt during the moment of his arrest. Amy snapped at Bobby for his wanton lies and demanded him to tell the player the truth, and so Bobby complied.

Bobby had no food and/or hope and didn't like the revelation that Captain Hugo kept his greedy self as the man of the spotlight—specifically Captain Hugo and Bobby looked for help, but when an avalanche throttled the two, Captain Hugo took everything away from Bobby and left him for dead. Bobby survived the avalanche, but was bereft of his survival supplies thanks to Captain Hugo's thievery. Bobby was starving, so he pounced on Captain Hugo, smashed his head with a broken plane controller, and then tied the pilot to a spit allowing Captain Hugo to be roasted over the lava. Bobby controlled his cannibalistic instinct after Amy's arrival, but Amy didn't care about Bobby anymore and alas the player took Bobby to court.

Bobby told Judge Dante he had to do anything to survive as if there was no tomorrow. Judge Dante gave Bobby 30 years in jail with mandatory psychological counseling for the cannibalistic murder of Captain Hugo aside from the jokes he cracked before issuing the final judgment. The arrest stunned Amy to no end as although she was glad to be back in White Peaks, she realized her childhood life were all lies all along—forcing her to take refuge in the snowy hills to clear her mind of the lies which lie within her youth. Frank Knight had to talk some sense into Amy as the outcome was more than what she could handle not to mention the player telling her that there's always hope and good within her.

Due to Amy having to take time off following the events of a mentally-challenging arrest, Duncan Young opted to help Chief Marquez check up on Alice Blick whilst Frank was given the task of tending for a faded movie star named Celine Dernier. Moreso, Russell Crane helped the player restore a lost picture of Stella Dernier (Celine's twin sister) and give the picture back to Celine. Besides that, the player informed Celine that Stella was one of the Night Walker's victims, and alas the player vowed not to stop until the masked creature was placed behind bars, no matter the cost.
