The Shadow World

[alex]

Adrian

I glared at him, walking back and forth in the room. "You better hope she doesn't get hurt."

[Callie]

Gabriel

"What are you going to do about it if she does?" I challenged, smirking slightly.

[Louise]

Natalia

I nodded, and did as instructed. I opened the door a couple of inches and peered my head around the corner, but all I saw was Kata's bedroom. "Don't worry, it's all clear," I told her, swining the door open.

[Callie]

OOC: *pans self so Stebie doesn't have to* I forgot to tell you that that thing isn't there anymore. It's Kata's bedroom.

[Louise]

ooc: You idiot. Tell me these things, dammit.

[Callie]

OOC: I'm sorry. >.<" *waits for edit or new post*

[alex]

Adrian

I glared at him. "I'll kill Natalia with my bare hands," I threatened.

[Louise]

ooc: There, edited.

[Callie]

Gabriel

"You couldn't," I said simply. "You know I'd just save her, and that would cause your girl harm. They're best friends, you know that."

Kata

I got out of my position and followed her into the room. My room. "Huh. Definitely not the impending death I was expecting," I murmured, whirling around when I heard something quietly close behind me. The door. "Just the window, then?" I wondered aloud, looking out of it. It looked exactly like the view my room had from home, but I was smart enough to know this wasn't really my room. He wouldn't let us go that easily. And in my house, doors didn't randomly disappear. I looked back to Natalia for her input.

[alex]

Adrian

I glared at him. Damn it, I hated his world and his freaking game. "You know what, Gabriel? Fuck you."

[Callie]

Gabriel

I shrugged. "You don't have to stick around, you know. You're free to leave whenever you want. Though the show's only just starting," I told him, pointing to the mirror where Natalia and Kata were exploring Kata's room.

Devantae

I looked curiously at the mirror. They seemed okay, but... what was Gabriel planning? Was this Natalia's nightmare? Oh, damn it, he better not hurt her...

[alex]

Adrian

I bit my lip to not scream at him and hurt him, at least try. It wouldn't work and I felt so powerless... It physically hurt me to have no powers, all I had to do was watch Kata get hurt... and that other girl, but I didn't really care about anyone else.

[Callie]

Gabriel

"Pity we can't get started on your nightmare yet," I remarked nonchalantly to Devantae, who just grimaced.

Devantae

I looked over to Adrian. "I don't think you really need to worry about Kata all that much." Gabriel shot me a look, but I continued. "She doesn't just act strong. She is, and if anyone can get through this, it's probably her."

[alex]

Adrian

I looked up at Devantae. I heard his words but they felt kind of meaningless. I looked at Kata in the mirror, feeling a pull in my heart. How badly I wanted her, but I knew that I could never have her. Especially not after all of this, even if she did live she wouldn't trust people like me after what Gabriel is gonna do to her. And her mom... but that was a different story.

[Callie]

Gabriel

I didn't really have anything to say now, and the same seemed true with Devantae, so I stayed silent.

[alex]

ooc: *pouts* Moar of this please?

[Callie]

OOC: *is waiting for Stebie to answer Kata's question*

[Louise]

ooc: *ish too blonde to answer Kata's question* O.o

[Callie]

OOC: *just realized we're past that and Kata didn't really ask a question* You could agree that they should go out the window, or make Nat shrug.

[Louise]

Natalia

I shrugged.

[Callie]

Kata

I shrugged back at her, starting to open the window, but then there was a bright light filling the room. Ah, shit...

Next thng I knew, both Natalia and I were laying on weird... hospital-like cots. On a spaceship. With aliens. Oh, and naturally, one of them had a really long... something. Probe? And he was coming towards me. Both Natalia and I had lights above our heads, which was weird, but I didn't want whatever that was anywhere near me, so I started wiggling. I couldn't fall off the thing.


OOC: The light is keeping them there.

[Louise]

Natalia

I don't know how the heck we became experiments or whatever, but Kata was wriggling like there was no tomorrow. I began to follow suit, hoping that it might help one of us get off whatever the hell we were lying on.

[Callie]

Kata

I saw that Natalia was doing the same, and I continued. Maybe she had a plan. The aliens looked alarmed. And creepy. They always looked creepy. When I looked up, though, I noticed the light over my head was getting dimmer, and Nat's was getting brighter. I stopped wriggling for a minute, but then continued; the light over my head got brighter again if I stopped. The aliens slowly went over to Natalia, and that was when I got free. Their heads whipped around and I seized the opportunity, kicking one in the head, then grabbing one and throwing him into his friend. I frantically looked for a switch on Natalia's cot thing, and found one. Her light switched off, I locked eyes with yet another alien. It wasn't moving, just looking calmly at me with brilliant blue eyes. Eyes like... Gabriel's. I narrowed my own eyes and walked straight over to him, shivering internally at his alien appearance. He should definitely stick with the creepy, gorgeous guy look. "Get out," I hissed.
I knew it was him from that dangerous smile he gave me before walking into a different room. When I peered into it again, he wasn't there, and I looked around frantically before spotting a door in the side of the ship thing that hadn't been there before.

Gabriel

I appeared next to Adrian and Devantae. Devantae looked ready to kill someone, honestly. "You could've killed them!"
"That would be the point of the Game, Dev," I answered, rolling my eyes ever-so-slightly. "Luckily, though, they seem to have made it so far."

[alex]

Adrian

I crossed my arms and just stared at the mirror, staring at Kata. I never took my eyes off her. I knew that I was the only one who truly cared about Kata. Both that human and Gabriel would picked Natalia over Kata any day, even if it meant Kata dying or getting hurt. I wasn't gonna allow it...

[Callie]

Gabriel

"Step two," I mumbled to myself, wondering if they would figure out the next part.

Kata

I walked over to the door and opened it slightly, but then it flew right open the rest of the way. I jumped back and looked over to Natalia. "Want me to go first, sunshine?" I asked her. I hadn't been able to see the ground.

[alex]

Adrian

I shook my head slowly, but said nothing. In my head I was drawing up different scenarios on what could possibly happen next; every single one that I could come up were life threatening.

[Louise]

Natalia

I nodded slowly.

[Callie]

Kata

"Tally ho," I muttered, jumping out the door and shutting my eyes.

When I opened them again, I was back in my room. "Well. That works. Better than being dead," I said to myself, turning and waiting for Natalia.

[Louise]

Natalia

I bit my lip and squinted my eyes shut as I also jumped. I landed with a loud thud next to Kata. "Ow..." I murmured, rubbing my head where I bumped it.

[Callie]

Kata

"Look on the bright side, sunshine," I said cheerily, "at least we aren't dead from impact on the ground!"
