Event #4 "Paint what you seek..." {Tag: anyone}

[Vanessa Rose]

Vanessa barely stepped out of the room before static filled her ears. She leaned heavily against the door frame as the static just seemed to get louder and louder. "A-ah, Pi-Pidge..?" she called out before covering her ears as she dropped to her knees.

Her eyes were shut tight as she tried to block out the sound. It seemed like it was never going to end and she could feel her stomach start to twist. No! I don't want to throw up again!

Suddenly, it stopped. A small whimper left her as she opened her eyes. She was laying on the ground and couldn't remember when she had curled up on the ground. Slowly she pushed herself up and rubbed her head. "Pidge? What was... Pidge?"

Looking around, she found herself no longer outside of the library. Pulling out her phone, she turned on the flashlight, but paused when she saw the date and time on her phone. 

8:51 pm, June 11...

"What...?" She blinked at her phone before shaking her head. She raised her flashlight to look around. "Pidge, my phone did something weird. Do you think it's-- This is... the art room?" She frowned as she moved to her feet. "When did... Pidge? Where are you? Peyton?" she called before gasping when she realized Riley wasn't there with her. "Riley?!"

What is happening? Vanessa started to shake, gripping her phone tightly in her hand as she moved around. 

[Rebecca Rolfe]

Rebecca dealt with a stomach ache, and swaying as she sat up, her head spinning around as she fended off the light with her arms trying to keep her headache at bay."Oi. Light is good, but a headache is not.''she'd admit. that short black hair curling around her cheekbones.her body groaning in reaction too her sitting up too fast, it seemed."What'...wait you know Pidge?'she'd wonder, "Is she okay?!" she'd stand up and sway, near about falling over."Ack!"

If someone did not catch her, she'd fall onto the floor!

[Vanessa Rose]

Vanessa jumped when she heard a groan and quickly turned her light towards the sound. "Who--?"

"Oi. Light is good, but a headache is not."

The girl she saw looked familiar, but she had some trouble recognizing her. "Oh, sorry," Vanessa said as she lowered the light. "You scared me--"

"Pidge? Is she okay?!" The girl stood up too fast and immediately started to sway. "Ack!"

Vanessa jumped back in surprise before realizing the girl was falling. "Oh, careful-!" The girl hit the ground before Vanessa could make it to her side. "Oh my gosh, are you okay?" She moved quickly to her side before feeling her stomach twist at the movement. "Oh... I don't think I'm over throwing up just yet..." She moved slower to the ground as she looked over the girl once more.

Blinking at her, she almost felt a small light go off in her head when she started to recognize the girl more. "...Rebecca, right?" she asked, having vaguely remembered her from the drama club. "Last I saw Pidge she was looking at books in the library... She was fine last I saw."

[Rebecca Rolfe]

"...Rebecca, right?"

Duh.Who else would I be you twat?!

Rebecca Inwardly facepalmed. she was getting more annoyed than ever before, and saying things in her head she would normally never say. 8:51 pm, June 11.  she'd eye her phone now. those eyes landed on the girl. Hitting the ground Rebecca growled.

"DAMMIT, you clutz! can't you do anything more than fall over and be annoying!?'she'd scold herself.someone had broken, and now just wanted out of the damned hell hole she currently resided in. she sat up slowly using what she could.

"Oh my gosh, are you okay?" "I'm fine, stuck in a blasted hellhole from a god knows what's point of view of torture and disarray, well that would be discord would it not?'she'd ask. blinking."Uh, no no no, no vomit please.''she'd say softly backing away to find something for Vanessa."Were good on the vomit right?"She'd ask, blinking.

What sort of sick joke is this person playing with the texts and all?

she was sure more have died. and a lot of  the signs pointed to Vanessa being sick; "Who died?" asked Becca seriously."Besides Andrei and the others?" Rebecca hated being so far back behind things."Think woman! Focus. Focus on something other than that stomach of yours, it'll help.'' she'd pace softly, her phone being clutched, Damned this idiotic sequence kept happening . She, was also learning that she did not do so well in confinement.

it brought out a darker side of Becca, she some-times saw at home. Becca shifted her eyes about, she couldn't stay in this room with a sick girl, she could barely hold  a tongue when she was  sick."Three things good ... I'm alive, she's alive, and were with one another.. there.''she'd breath."Your turn. think of Three Things Good,'' she'd say to Vanessa.

[Vanessa Rose]

Vanessa took deep breaths, trying to calm down her body, and winced a little at Rebecca backing away from her. "J-just give me a minute..." she mumbled as she sat fully on the ground.

Okay, she was starting to feel a little better...

"Who died?"

Vanessa frowned. "What--"

"Think, woman! Focus. Focus on something other than that stomach of yours, it'll help."

"Yeah, sure... and I have no idea if anyone died..." Vanessa admitted softly, glancing at Rebecca. "I... I threw up blood after refusing to do a request from a text message... I-I've heard others have been getting them?"

"Think of three things good."

She blinked at her before smiling a little. "Okay... um, I'm not alone... uh, we still have our phones for light... and, uh, hmm..." It took her a little bit to think of a third thing. "We're alive... I know you said that one, but... it's really the best thing, right?"

A sigh left her, feeling a little better than she did before now. "Thanks, that actually helped some. So, we should be good now," she said with a smile. "H-have you seen the others?" she asked, hoping to hear about someone else. "Have you seen Max by chance? I was with her in the computer lab before the quack..."

God, please let her be okay... She's gotta be okay.

[Rebecca Rolfe]

"Max?" she'd wonder."Not that I recall?" she'd say softly breathing and calming down."Sorry, I get very ..very agitated when someone is sick.'' she'd take a deep breath, in out in out.standing up right quick, and looking around."You can help me find Pidge and I'll help you find Max. Deal?"she'd offer, the young woman."AND A god forsaken PEN! ''her right eye twitched annoyed."Do you have a pen?"she'd wonder. growling."Why the FF'n heck they took the PENS I'll never guess!?" she'd grunt.

[Vanessa Rose]

Vanessa felt her heart sink a little at hearing that Max hadn't been seen. That doesn't mean anything... I already saw Peyton, Pidge, and Riley-- though Riley was unconscious the whole time...

She watched as Rebecca stood up before nodding at the offer she made. "Deal." She smiled a little brighter before blinking when she mentioned pens. "Um, no, sorry; they were all in my book bag and I haven't seen that since the quack."

Vanessa stood up slowly and dusted off her uniform skirt. "We're in the artroom, so maybe we can find something in here? heck, maybe we can find something useful?" she offered walking over cabinets to search.

[Vanessa made a perception check]

[Administrator]

Dice result: 1D10 => 4
Failure; you didn't find anything useful.

[Vanessa Rose]

After searching and searching, Vanessa sighed as she started to give up. "Nothing... sorry," she said after searching the last of the cabinets.

She sighed as she leaned against the cabinet. "Well, so much for that plan... Any ideas?"

I wish we had a something more to go on... she thought with a frown.

[Rebecca Rolfe]

"AHA!"

shouted Becca finding a pen...she'd look for a desk piece and turn it over."If I can't text, I'm going old school.''said Becca. The rubble was often, difficult to deal with, and fragile so Becca took her time. " If you read this; " was wrote on the desk."Please tell Pidge or Max, too find Becca or Vanessa. Or both.'' it took her a bit, and the pen eventually faltered and snapped, but she looked for more pens and tried to write in a few other places. Pens kept breaking, or exploding causing some of her skirt to get covered in ink."People are going to wonder if I got hurt now.''she'd frown at that.

Becca was smarter than she seemed. Becca had been haunched over a desk, and had found a pen on the floor- among others.

[Vanessa Rose]

Vanessa grinned. "Nice, glad you found one."

She peeked over Becca's shoulder and watched as she wrote the message, wincing every time a pen broke.

"Hopefully they don't worry too much about us... do you want to explore the area or stay in here?" she asked, feeling unsure of what else to do at this point.

Can we find some water maybe? Food? When did we last even eat? she thought with a frown.
