So what's the stitch? Should we go investigating or?.."
"Candy is a good start, but there should be something else. Before we get too crazy in looking for clues or defenses of whatever, we should think about what you guys saw with the other groups. Whatever is playing all these nasty tricks is splitting us up before throwing us back out to meet other people."
She held up her phone to emphasize her point. Did Chris and Dawn get threatening texts, too? There had to be others that were being targetted. How else could she explain Zak's sudden freakout earlier? Or how people kept blacking out and reawakening in different parts of the school.
"Did either of you get nasty messages? Did someone else get them?"

Chris noticed the expression on dawn's face. Oh no. Was that creepy? He didn't mean it in a creepy way! He looked down in embarrassment. THIS was why he didn't speak to pretty girls who weren't tara. He didn't mean to come across like some kind of filthy pervert. “So what's the stitch? Should we go investigating or?.." dawn got up immediately looking around. Seemed as if the blonde couldn't sit still. Chris nodded. “yeah.. maybe we should. Maybe there are more people with us.. just not in this room" he said as he thought about it. A lot of people were still missing and a lot of people he wanted to check up on.
Before he could get up he heard esmeraldas words. "Candy is a good start, but there should be something else. Before we get too crazy in looking for clues or defenses of whatever, we should think about what you guys saw with the other groups. Whatever is playing all these nasty tricks is splitting us up before throwing us back out to meet other people." Chris thought about that for a bit. She was right. “that's true..” he admitted. “d-did anything strange or bad happen to you girls before this..?” he asked them. The moment esme mentioned the texts, chris froze. Shit so.. they had been getting those too.. “I did.. and a lot of the people i was with did..” he said softly. Seeing what the text had done to andrei and nancy scared him to death. What if everyone would end up either dead or hurting eachother..?

Dee Dee's short scavenger hunt wasn't as successful as the previous one, so she shortly made a beeline back to the table.
"Whatever is playing all these nasty tricks is splitting us up before throwing us back out to meet other people." Yeap! And this shit better end as soon as possible. “That's true,” she heard Chris also agreeing on the subject of discussion.
Both Esmeralda and Chris asked if anything weird has happened to them. Chris was definitely a witness of the strange hypnosis or whatever it was that have happened with the janitor but besides that...
"Besides the e-e-eh, 'teleportations' and well, you know, the 'janitor' accident I didn't see anything weird so far," she shrugged her shoulders leaning over the head of the table. "Maybe I was just... 'lucky'? Ha ha," she gave both of her new friends a weak smile. She knew that her luck would not last forever. "Sorry."
She took her phone out of the skirt-pocket, nervously checking on the time. "Hey guys,.." she wasn't sure how to present this information to the group. "My phone's acting weird..."
She showed them the screen that stated: 8:51 pm, June 11 "Today is September 18th... right?"

“I did.. and a lot of the people i was with did..”
Esme frowned at Chris’ reply. He looked terrified. But he had a good reason. What was being asked of them was terrible. She glanced down at her hands. The slightest traces of blood from where she had tried to heal Madonna still lingered. Was the principal okay? Much to her dread and relief, a horrible combination, other people were being asked to horrible things. Esme didn’t dare ask. The less she kept people from being frightened the better. She pressed her hands over Chris’ like she was making a solemn promise.
“So long as we keep on our toes we can get through it. I’m scared, too, but I want to get out as badly as you.”
Dawn returned, unsuccessful from her scavenging. She was more optimistic than Chris. In fact, she mentioned the janitor dying.
“So it’s targetting staff, too. Interesting...”

Chris looked up feeling esme's hands on his. It was a little strange as chris usually didn't get this much attention from people. But he was glad esmeralda cared about him and tried to comfort him. “So long as we keep on our toes we can get through it. I’m scared, too, but I want to get out as badly as you.” she told him. Chris nodded. “you have no idea" he mumbled. “.. everywhere i have been.. bad stuff happened.. I’m honestly.. terrified something will happen to you girls..” he admitted. He didn't know why he felt comfortable enough to share his fear of attracting bad events but he did it.
“ Besides the e-e-eh, 'teleportations' and well, you know, the 'janitor' accident I didn't see anything weird so far," dawn said. Chris felt his stomach turn flashes of andrei throwing himself in the pit while screaming and yelling about how sorry he was haunted his mind. Something was awfully wrong. “i guess i'm just lucky" dawn said. Chris stared down at the ground. “.. nobody who is in this school right now is lucky" he said softly. He looked up seeing the girls weak smile and couldn't help but feel bad for his comment. “b-but yeah.. i guess you're right.. i hope you stay lucky” he said giving her a small smile of his own. “sorry” she said. Chris shook his head in a ‘dont be’ kind of way.
When dawn got her phone and said it acted weird chris was scared they had jinxed it and dawn got a message. However she had not. "Today is September 18th... right?" She asked. He had to think. “in all honesty..? I.. don't remember sleeping but it feels as if a few days have passed already .. how much i can't tell.. due to the blackouts and such”

“in all honesty..? I.. don't remember sleeping but it feels as if a few days have passed already .. how much I can't tell.. due to the blackouts and such,” Dee Dee listened to Chris carefully and looked back at her phone in confusion. Okay, maybe even if they did spend a week already here... it STILL should be September, right?!
"I see," she mumbled putting the phone back into the skirt-pocket. It didn't make ANY sense. The fuck. "Either way what do you think of investigating futher, guys?" she asked them a bit more cheerfully this time and bent her head towards the door to the corridor. Even though their spirits must be high! Or else they are just doomed from the start...

September. September. Esme stared at her half charged phone. The date was frozen. Frozen to June. Chris was right. With how many blackouts and balcking in were going on, time was the last thing she was keeping track of. All she cared about was getting out. Alive. Taking her friends along would help too. Esme set the phone down and rose.
“Yeah. If you guys want to go ahead, you can. I want to check something. I’ll catch up,” Esme promised.
She went over to the table. Amanda, Tara are her had been here before Copper. Was there a clue? Amanda had hinted there was a setup after all. ((Is it too late to to perception checks? Lol))

"Either way what do you think of investigating futher, guys?" Chris looked at the blonde next to him. It seemed as if dawn REALLY didn't want to stay in this place any longer. In all honesty? Chris felt a little more safe here then he had felt in the small hallways or classrooms. Here they could see when something got to them because the room was bigger. here they had more space to roam around. The redhead noticed how this place was making him appreciate being outside a lot more. he felt suffocated by the walls of the school. he needed fresh air.
“Yeah. If you guys want to go ahead, you can. I want to check something. I’ll catch up,” Esme said. Chris moved his head to her interested in why she would want to wait here. “ Not to be rude or anything.. but .. do you have a lead or something..?” he asked esme. If esme knew something they didn't he would like to know it. maybe he could think along and help figuring things out. His gaze followed esmeralda who walked to the table. He looked at dawn who seemed really eager to go.

"Before the earthquake, I was here with Tara and Amanda. We were having tea. Tea, like Arielle always joked about. Amanda said something about this being a setup, that she was forced into doing it. I said I would look out for her." Esme clenched her hand tightly. Tears that she had shed for Dawn were finally coming full force. She trusted Chris, she really did. There was no way he was the asshole behind all of this. He wasn't insane enough to get himself brutally hurt. The tears fell like fire across her cheeks. Fire and water didn't mix usually, but when Esmeralda cried, it was just a sign of those two elements. Her clenched fist hit a nearby table and a sob escaped her throat.

Dice result: 1D10 => 10 Natural success; you found an item!
With a corner of her eye, she noticed a glimpse of something shiny. Under the table, the lucky girl has found a pen (sadly it was empty and useless) and a list of paper, pinned to the floor by it. It wasn't a regular empty sheet of paper though. It was a "gaming club" list. Amanda's list with her own name at the top of the list: Esmeralda. Even though Amanda said "wow a lot of people have joined the club" there were actually not that many names on it. Besides Esmeralda, you could see Naya - with a little heart right beside it, Tara, Ryan's messy handwriting, Christopher's name written by Amanda herself - with a little question mark right by his name - Polaris, and, finally, Arielle.
Esmeralda restored 1 sanity point.
Item: a "gaming club" list
[OFF-TOP: so sorry Dani, that I didn't see your check until tonight! <3]

“Yeah. If you guys want to go ahead, you can. I want to check something. I’ll catch up,” Esmeralda told them and Dawn nodded in agreement, "I will head first and check out the classrooms!"
She looked back at Chris and give him a gentle bump on the shoulder. "See you soon!" the girl gave the redhead one of her cheerful smiles and strolled into the corridor. There she heard only scraps of Chris' and Esme's conversation, but she didn't mind to not be a part of it.
They seemed like close friends. They needed some privacy.
[Dee Dee has left the room]
