Wait, I've been unconscious for a while and I wake up and things are like this? Are those... are those zombie corpses they're dragging away?

Sadly, that's the case. If you need, Suite 5 is where everyone is gathering that still aren't sick. I could escort you if you'd like.

Tama is like my favorite character ever X3

[elle_holloway]

Wow, so this is... this is real. Okay.

[she touches the back of her head compulsively, feeling nauseas]

I don't want you to put yourself in any danger because of me. I think I can manage to get there by myself.

[she stops paying attention to him for a moment and starts kicking the leg of her desk until it breaks off and then she picks it up, swinging it experimentally a few times, to see what it'll handle like of she has to hit something with it. She's used to her hometown being infested with monsters. Zombies will be nothing]

I think I'll manage. But can I ask you a favor? Can you... can you stay on with me until I get there?I know it sounds silly, but I'm kinda terrified.

[There's the sound of somebody walking by outside, her breathing heavy, her stride uneven. Oddly enough, it's accompanied by a noise not unlike somebody running knives along the wall, a steady scraping that passes over Elle's door and continues along the hallway]

[elle_holloway]

[Elle holds her breath at the sound, terrified]

Oh god...

[dyingwings]

[The sound stops as soon as she utters those words, and there's a dull "thunk" as several sharp objects are pulled free from the wall, accompanied by a low growl.

Something on the other side of the door is sniffing at the air]

[elle_holloway]

[Elle backs very quietly away from the door, terrified]

[empyreanistic]

Unfortunately. It's kinda totally creepy, right? So you should stay in your room until the test ends or you might get infected and turn into one.

[elle_holloway]

Yeah, really creepy. These experiments... I don't know how much more of them I can take.

I'm going to try to get to Suite5, where the uninfected are. Are you there? Do you want to come with me? I can come and get you.

[empyreanistic]

You get used to it, I promise. Like, it's bad now and it's still awful but you sorta... learn to cope.

Nah, I'm in suite 8 with some other uninfected people, but if you want I can play guard in the hallway and try and fend off the zombies 'til you get here?

[elle_holloway]

It's okay, I think I'll manage. I don't want you to put yourself in danger because of me.

[she swallows hard]

There's a virus going around turning people into zombies. You either need to stay in your room or go somewhere else that's safe. That's the only way to guarantee that you won't become one of them too.

[elle_holloway]

I'm heading to Suite 5, to where I heard it's safe. Have you heard anything? Are the people there really okay? I'm trying to find out if my friend Alex is okay. Alex Shepherd. Handsome, kind of tall with brown hair. Gray and brown eyes. Have you seen anyone like that?

[she feels a little desperate]

[Audio]

[gingerbatgirl]

From what I've heard, it seems to be the safest place. I know I've heard of several people going over there and it sounds like it's guarded by some sort of magic. [Which she knows nothing about but hey. Still sounds pretty secure]

I think I remember seeing someone who fits that description make a post not long ago. Maybe try sending him a message? It's probably the most effective way to check up on him.

[Audio]

[elle_holloway]

Alright, I'll head there. Are you going? If so, I can help you make it there alive if you want. I don't know how much help I'll be, but I'll do my best.

[she chews on her bottom lip]

He... hasn't been answering.
