[Nightmare] Call my name and save me from the dark
It was over, the wolf was dead. The only thing left on her mind was Gilbert, the middle man or, possibly, the creator of this sick thing. The hairs on the back of her head stood up as their names appeared, complete with instructions.
They shouldn't obey them, she knew they shouldn't but, after being trapped here with that screen being their only guide their only source of sanity(?) amidst the murders they had allowed to happen, they had heading straight into the darkness. When she enters the new room, when she sees the people lying there unconscious, when she realizes what's about to happen, she tries to scream but there's something covering her mouth and she soon falls to the darkness.
When she finally reawakens she looks at Ivan briefly before glancing around the others waking up. Like before there aren't that many she recognizes, excluding Ivan of course, just a fellow lecture at Liberty University and one of her...
She's numb when one of her brothers, one of the few she has left, pulls her into a hug and asks so many questions, where has she been as Erin's been worried, did she know where Arthur and Peter are because they've been missing too, what happened to her clothes? To each of his questions she tells a lie, how could she tell him the truth? Tell him that their two youngest brothers were dead because of her.
As the TV (is it bigger than the one from the room she had been trapped in? There seemed to be more bodies this time round too if she thought about it) bursts into life, she's somehow not surprised that it was Thera and Remy dying. She knew that they had obeyed the screen like she had Ivan had and stayed behind like they had been told. She still manages a few tears, crocodile tears, over Remy, proclaiming how she had never gotten to know her baby sister (she wants to laugh at how much her brother believes her, pulling her close and telling her not to cry). Then it's the hunt for their room and, of course, she and Ivan ended up in the same one again.
Ivan, she hadn't paid much attention to him because of her brother.
She frets and coos over him like she had this past week before pulling out the bit of paper in her pocket, Ivan has one too. They talk, argue, at one point she thinks she might of even screamed (thank god for the thickness of these walls) before everything blurs.
All she knows is that they wake up in the same bed, same side as Ivan's had been on in their last room.
Elizaveta and Sadiq don't look the mess they had all been in before they had parted. She wonders how long before one of them cracks, how much they actually see, tries to tell everyone the truth. She knows the answer to find the clue door but she takes her time, lets someone else find it. She joins in the conversation, pointing out thoughts she had had in the last round, how vague the clue was, how many ways it pointed. Part of it points towards her but not as much as it does her brother plus someone accusing him.
Maybe that's why, when they all retire for the night (or maybe it's day? She hasn't seen sun light since being trapped here) before they have to vote, she convinces Ivan that they kill her brother and his partner off first, throw the small trail off of them immediately and point it at someone else in the progress. She knows how to respond when the footage reveals whatever method Gilbert decides to use.
She wants her brother to die quickly, to die before he can realize what she had already been through, what she had become. Oh she hugs him when she comes out of the booth, murmurs apologizes and wishes how they weren't here. She wonders if he noticed the difference in her kiss, how it can't decided if its simply sisterly or something else.
The same sort of kiss she gives Ivan once their door has closed and locked for the night.
As she snuggles against the Russian she glances up at the camera, "I'll live again," She mouths at it, at Gilbert, "I hope you'll let me meet you when I do."

When Rory wakes from her dream this time, she screams, loud and painfully. Oh fuck she couldn't of? Peter, Peter's death was an accident but this time...
By the time Erin comes through, Rory's curled up in a corner of her room, crying and shaking badly.
She doesn't sleep for the rest of the night.
