OOM - The Labyrinth Part I

[amazonofthe21st]

There is boredom. There is restlessness. There is anxiety. And there is recklessness. Stages of reactions following the common phrase of There's nothing to do. If left alone for too long, this condition can result in conversation, conflict, experimentation, explosions, discovery, and death

It's starts with swallowing. Wanting water.
Then the sound of shifting. The crackle of fire.
Neither of which should have been in her room here.

Both send Jo Harvelle up suddenly. Hands going for the knife she keeps under her pillow even in Milliways. Fingers tips grinding against hard stones instead of stiff sheets. Stones. Bricks. Torches.

"What the fucking hell?"

Rachel jumps when the woman moves, up on her feet and moving until her back is up against the wall. Because she'd noticed the other person there but hadn't been expecting such a sharp movement from someone who was unconscious a moment ago.

And she still doesn't know where she is or why or how anyone could have gotten her here without her knowing about it.

So it takes a few moments. A few moments of glaring at the woman with fingers twitching near the hem of her t-shirt, though if necessary, she'll simply morph through it.

Then, "You?"

It's a good a thing she doesn't have that knife.
(It's an even better one that somehow she has pants.)

Her hands had started to ball. But her eyebrows furrowed.

"Rachel?" The dead kid, with the issues, from the bar?

Rachel's hands don't relax and she hasn't stopped glaring. It takes a moment to remember the name, which is a point all its own - she doesn't know this person.

"Jo."

And they're magically stuck together in a room out of King's Quest.
