Locked in a hotel during a storm

[dazedncrazed]

"Becky...just go!!"
Dazed pushes Becky away as she notices the emotion is draining from Escapes face. Becky runs a little way, but then looks back. "but.."
"Becky JUST RUN...don't look back!
just then Escsape attemts to lunge after Becky, Dazed dives for her leg and trips her up. Becky escapes...for now.

[Lilliputt]

Under the commotion, Lilli gets on her feet and runs after Becky. "Wait up!" she cries. The snake firmly rapped around her leg guides her through as they rush by the tunnel and there in the dark they meet up with an upset Becky with tears in her eyes. Lilli gives her a hug and tries to comfort her but time is running out and they have to continue.
"Snake can be of some use to us, Becky, he has been here before."

[EscapeGirl]

*Escape lands on the ground with a THUD! Shaking her head...* Er-um - ssorry about that...thanks.... *Looks ashamed*

[Freakshow59]

Meanwhile. . .

*Freakshow walks into his room, pulls out a laptop an enter a program called "Tr@ck3r" and enters 5 serial numbers into a "tracker code" box. The results come up with Lilliput, Eternal Beck, Adventure, Dazedncrazed and EscapeGirl. He enters a location, GH, and tracker dots are placed on a map. He connects a PDA to it, downloads the active file and goes out of the program. He takes the Desert Eagles again and heads toward them*

[dazedncrazed]

"Escape...you need to find Adventure and help her, you are the only one that can help her."
With that Dazed leaves Escape and stumbles back through the tunnel hoping to catch up with Lilli, but with it being so dark, and no snake to help her it takes her a long time, and when she get's to the end there is no sign of either Becky or Lilli

[Lilliputt]

"You know, Becky, snake is saying that...uh..."the one that pushes" is behind us. I think he means Dazed"...

[EscapeGirl]

WAIT...Dazed!!! *but Dazed as already gone. Escape looks around. Adventure was just standing here....with the rest of them.* ADVENTURE!?! I need your help.....I can't do this alone.....!! *At that moment the Creature CRASHES through the window of the hotel, allowing rain to pour in.....Thunder crashes...At Escape, his raspy voice speaks....* "WHERE IS SHE!?!?!! *Escape's eyes tear up....* I do - n - t kkkknnnoooow *she says shakily* "WHERE IS SHE!!!?!??!?!!" he demands, stepping toward Escape menacingly....

[dazedncrazed]

Dazed is completely lost, she goes back down the tunnel, the way she just came. She feels along the walls to give her a sense of direction! suddenly she feels a hole in the wall, curious of where it leads, and with nowhere else better to go, she decides to exit the tunnel down this secret passage.

[Eternal Becky]

Lilli and Becky runs away from everyone. They are not aware of where the road leads to.
"I still don't find this right Lilli. We shouldn't have left them alone." Becky says fighting her tears back.
The snake still around Lilli's leg.
"Hold on Becky. I am really tired"
"So am I Lilli, lets wait here for a while"
"What does the creature want from me."
"I wonder whats it upto" says Lilli with a puzzled expression on her face....

[dazedncrazed]

In the secret pasage

Dazed walks down the tight passage, it seemed to be getting smaller as it went, but she knew that it was just a mild case of claustraphobia. She could here pounding above, and the muffled sound of bat's screaching. 'It must be the ground floor of the hotel, I must be still underneath it'. She walked for what seemed miles, although she knew it couldn't have been that far. She was weary and tired, all she wanted to do was go to sleep. She was ready to give up and turn back, when a dim red glow appeared in the distance ahead of her. "A way out!' Dazed ran the rest of the way.

[EscapeGirl]

The Creature lets out a deafening roar and 'slaps' Escape across the face once again...."You have failed me!!!!" *Escape cowers against the wall of room 42.* He takes a knife and plunges into her left leg. She screams in pain* "You are useless to me, now!!! I will take care of this myself!" With a flutter of wings, he's is gone....on his way searching for Becky. He descreetly enters a room glowing with red light, and sees a single girl running toward the doorway of the room. It's Dazed. The Creature moves into the shadows at waits.*

[Vault]

-staggers bleeding-
I have been of no help for too long... -loosens band around eyes-
I may have to do this...
-walks next to girls-
I'm with you all the way.

[dazedncrazed]

Dazed finally reaches the end of the tunnel, she enters a room with an enormous glowing red orb in fromt of her. Around the edges of the room are computer terminals, random data pouring through them by the second. Dazed goes over to one, but can not even begin to understand what it means. The only exit seems to be the way she just entered, so with nothing else to do, she walks towards the orb.
YOU SHOULD NOT BE HERE
Dazed steps back, completely suprised by the multi-toned robotic voice coming from the orb. She hesitates, but feels that this orb is a step to finding out what has really been happening in the hotel.
"Err...what are you?"
Dazed felt stupid talking to the orb but felt that she had to...nothing happened. 'Hmph, as if it would answer me' she thought to herself. She got ready to turn back out of the room when the robotic voice started again, Although this time it was broken, as if something was intercepting the signal. the voice continued, but Dazed only managed to catch parts of what it was saying.
GAMERSHOOD CENTRAL CONTROL......BREECH OF CONDUCT.......SYSTEM FAILURE
"What?? I can't understand what you are saying"
OVER...IDE......CRKSL...SJJSJ
The voice was becoming more and more broken, and the orb began glowing brighter. Dazed was concentrating so hard she did not see movement in the shadows. It was not until she heard the evil voice that she stopped and turned around.
"You! you are not part of my plan, you will die!" Dazed caught a glince of sharp metal, and screamed. Strangely the orb seemed to mimic the scream and let out a high pitched wail. From that point there was utter confusion. Dazed ran around the orb, and the figure followed her holding a huge sword ready to strike. Dazed's screams continued, and so did the orbs...it's high pitched scream got higher and higher until it could not be heard by Dazed's human ears. She kept running, aware that the figure was only steps behind her. Suddenly, attracted by the orbs super sonic screams, hundreds of bats swarmed down a hole in the roof Dazed had failed to notice before. She noticed a ladder, and jumped onto it..began climbing upwards against the flight of the bats.
It seemed the stranger had become confused at Dazed whereabouts with the bat's obstruction, because as she climbed and climbed, she knew she was not being followed.
Dazed reached the top of the ladder, and didn't have time to look around as she collapsed from the sheer exhaustion of her terrible ordeal

[Vault]

A spirit flickers into view in the lobby of the hotel. It is Vault's evil, knocked away from Vault when Escape exorcized him. "Ah, yes, it is working at last... after a month of gathering energy silently... I am strong enough to use my Sharingan... at least if I have a human host... The spirit flew all over the hotel and ends up in a room with a red orb... It is sparking with great electricity, and looks like it is malfunctioning. It notices that there is a large hole in the roof with many bats in it. The spirit flies into the hole and sees a suitable host... It hides within the body, undetected.

[Lilliputt]

After walking rapidly through the tunnel, Lilli and the snake seem at a constant debate and suddenly Lilli makes an abrupt halt. "What is it?" says Becky in confusion and impatiently. "I think we got a problem, Becky....." is Lillis hesitent response,"...it seems that snake has a different opinion about what is a "safe" place". "Well, what does he mean by that?" Becky says stumped by the revelation. "We are heading towards a snake pit and I don't think I will be able to handle a whole bunch of them. As I have said, snakes got an attitude..."
