0 Days Remain

[lightmischief]

After the vision, and realizing that they still have an hour before the curfew, a message shows up on their program...

Luci: Finally! Human minds can be so fragile...

Luci: You saw it, right? What do you think?

Luci: Does it make you angry or terrified?

Luci: I don't really care but if you answered yes to either of those, good!

Luci: I've got presents for you, lambs.

Luci: Once an apple falls from the tree, it's hard to stop gravity.

Luci: They will try.

Luci: Already a few of you didn't make it.

Luci: But you are all stronger than you look! Amazing, I know.

Luci: SO LISTEN UP! See that dot on the map?



Luci: No? Maybe arrows will help?



That's where you saw that vision.

Luci: It's just about twenty minutes away from the central part of Green Valley's fancy-ass school. You know the 'World Famous' apple orchards out in the back? The very first subway station?

Luci: If you want to know more about what you saw and any other questions that might be burning in your mind, I suggest you hop into the underground city subway and wait until midnight strikes then sneak out to it. Don't think the city will care for less than fifty people going there anyway. Staying after darkness is normal anyway, right?

Luci: When we get there, you'll get a brand new message.

[Any number of curses, most of them French, play through Michelle's head.

Those... things drift through her brain. Dark, grasping and shadowy hands, and far too many teeth. She swears she's seen them before, as an echo of some hallucination or memory she's tried to bury and ignore in the prior days. But now... maybe it's that the stress of school and visions have finally worn away the last of her resolve. Maybe it's that the news and murders have weighed heavy on her head.

Or maybe she's tired of sitting around, waiting and reacting. She's ready to go out and do something. After sending a few messages, her hands are stable enough that she trusts herself to type something longer.]

For those of us who are students at the academy:

I'm sure you're all familiar with the tunnel system to navigate campus. This said if you don't use the library very often (unthinkable as that is) a few pointers for reaching it. Take the green line corridor from whichever dorm you're based out of. It runs in a ring route along the campus, and eventually leads to the central facilities. If you follow it to the center, you'll find yourself at the library sub-entrance.

If you've reached the cafeteria, turn back.

I... can vouch that if you study or at least act as if you are, the staff won't question you very much. I'll be there myself, initially. I can speak for anyone else there, that we're a group study or similar. At least until the time for... whatever that was comes.

I think some of us can get there for study no problem. I'm not sure what the non-students are going to do though.

[1in_perfection]

I saw something further up discussing car rides and meetings at a shop of some sorts. I'm hoping that will be able to account for most people, with this library meet up picking up any of the slack.

Though I should probably clarify that for once, I don't expect to get or see any studying get done.

[connivingbird]

That's good then.

Though I don't even know why I'm doing this.

The school has tunnels? Do they go to the primary cycle?

[...yes. that's what he's focusing on right now.]

If primary has a dorm, I'd assume so. They were built for snow, and to keep students safe during the curfew, going to and from the school; that's a fact regardless of age.

...But this said, I recognize you as the boy I was speaking with, several weeks ago. I don't suppose I can convince you to stay inside and safe, can I?

[seasonsofdeath]

Oh. I don't live in the dorms but I do kind of know the school. Better than the other place.

No. [He's coming.

[1in_perfection]

I thought it would at least be worth trying, to convince you to stay behind. This... has every appearance of being dangerous.

[seasonsofdeath]

I'll be ok. Don't worry.

[catchthishand]

you in the dorms
group of us are going to meet up at the pawn shop
were in the lobby for the next ten minutes

[1in_perfection]

A good idea; I'd suggest several people go there.

Myself, I'll be trying to approach from the library; no point in putting all our numbers in one spot. It's also the area I know the most about.

[And a place she can internally steel herself for the upcoming task, but no sense in discussing too much about that.]

[catchthishand]

got you
see you when we all show up there
i guess

[ He has no idea who this is, other than the person who suggested study groups a while back ]
