OR Sar-Sar or sylverdawn get Judd to re-open the vent-door-thingy.)

(OOC: got it. Aaron will now proceed to twittle his thumbs and wait for either the opening to be re-opened or someone in the same general vicinity of him to come online)

Or you could do what I mentioned above... (Highlighted in purple XD))

(OOC: Right. I forgot I was blind and read way too quickly to possibly process everything. I think I'll just let you guys go on with your scene. I've been trying to bully myself into writing for several hours now and this is a perfect excuse :p)

Um... Ok You'll make us do it the hard wayyy.
Just so ya all know, I'm goin' to beddy now! I'm so tired - I had to get up at 7! (Which is very early for me since I'm home-schooled and don't usually get up 'till 'round 8.) So, byah!

P.S. If you use Drustan, make sure he stays in character, 'kay? Thanks )

(OOC: byyyyyye!!!)

(OOC: you should make Judd open the door!! I don't want to wait for other people to get online...)

(OOC: okay, okay, if I must )

Aaron

I climbed back up the ladder that we'd come down, listening through the sealed vent. I heard voices, two girls and a boy's that sounded suspiciously like Drustan. "Hey," I called back down. "Can you open this back up? I hear voices. Like, more kids who are potentially trying to escapes voices." I climbed back down, letting Judd up the ladder. There was a screeching noise, like nails on a chalk board that made me wince. But when I went back up there was an opening.

(OOC: just so you know, I'll be on for another hour or so.)

(OOC: Me too.)

Storm:
I scrambled down the ladder after Drustan and Xia. It seemed like there were three or four other people down there, but add the darkness and my vision impairment, and one can never be sure.
Once we reach the bottom, I try do what's easiest for me- be completely silent. Soon, though, we're just sitting there, staring at each other. Finally I can't bear it any longer. "I'm trying to escape. We set off the second alarm. I'm Storm. Who are you?"
They stare at me like I'm speaking a foreign language. Finally, a girl's voice fills the space. "I'm Vi. We're trying to escape too."
Other voices join in.
"Leroy."
"Aaron."
"Xia."
"Drustan."
"Judd."
I think that everyone has spoken.

(OOC: That's everyone in the vents right now, I think. Where are the other three?)

(OOC: I dunno. Have they started yet?)

Aaron
"I'm trying to escape. We set off the second alarm. I'm Storm. Who are you?" one of the girls said.
"Aaron." I said, right after Leroy.
"How'd you guys get out?"

"I found a tunnel under the tile and got out when no one was looking. I knocked the doctor escorting Xia to weapons testing unconscious, and I killed the guard that was torturing Drustan." My voice breaks at the end. I don't want to talk about killing anymore. Why are my stupid emotions betraying me?! Ever since Drustan joined us, I can't seem to disguise my emotions well.
I can feel the eyes of all the others staring at me, Leroy and Vi and Judd and Aaron.
"What? There's no use just sitting here. Let's go," I say, forcing a hint of false impatience into my tone.

Aaron

"I found a tunnel under the tile and got out when no one was looking. I knocked the doctor escorting Xia to weapons testing unconscious, and I killed the guard that was torturing Drustan." Storm said.
I winced at the mention of torture. I had thought of what might await me if I were caught, but her affirmation made it final. Escape or die. I hated to think what would happen if I didn't make it.
"What? There's no use just sitting here. Let's go," she said.
"Yeah," I said. "They're looking for us, and the longer we stay in one place the more likely they'll find us." I turned to Storm. "Do you know how to get out of here?"

"I've been under low security my whole stay. No trouble before this. I've memorized the tunnels on every map in this building. What floor are we on? I think it's sub 4, but I'm not sure." I know this is my only chance. If we get caught, security will be doubled.

Aaron

"Sub four." I clarified. I cracked my knuckles. It made me feel like a character in a book, like this was a story and I could close the book whenever I wanted. Like this wasn't real life. Like I was invincible. "Lets get out of here."

(OOC: got to go to bed )

(OOC: Night!)
Storm:
I lead the way. I know the directions by heart. It's right, past two intersections, left, and straight forward. Down two floors on the first ladder, left, past another intersection, left again, straight until the second ladder, and up six floors. Then we go right, past two intersections, and right again. On the third vent that leads to the floor, get out and walk straight ahead. Get in one of the pods that go to the surface, two to a pod.
Just keep going.

(OOC: Maybe if we get captured again, we can meet up with the others.)

Leroy Jenkins (OOC- I made a DT for further OOC, just so's y'know)

The group was now following this new girl named Storm. I could tell she was headed for the lifts to the surface. Silly girl, they were facing the largest breakout they'd ever had. Those were going to be shut down and heavily guarded.

"Hey, uh, Storm, is it? You realize that the route you're taking us down is leading to the surface lifts? And you realize that they're going to be heavily guarded and shut off so we can't use them? We're gonna have to fight our way out, and I have a weapons cache that'll let us do that. Come on."

I turned down a sloped air vent that I knew dropped down a couple floors that would take us to the floor my cache was on. I turned to Vi and tossed her the last pistol.

"Judging by that grenade I imagine you've got some combat experience. Feel free to help out."
