Before he could get to the break room, it seemed like he was in for some kind of show. The Runner Guy was showing off a sword to some other man in a tie, and they took up most of the hallway, so it seemed too difficult to get by them. The second guy... Davis or something? Was looking really riled up, and Ice wasn't about to get in the way of that. Davis's normal swagger was going down as he stuttered to ask to receive whatever kind of sword it was. Blades had never really interested Isaiah himself, no did any other weapon, though he wasn't too bad with his fists. Honestly, it was probably for that girl in the weird armor, right? And just when the guy was about to thank the other, that weird bandaged girl showed up with the really agitating cassette recorder. Seriously, she needed to get with the program and upgrade her voice, because hearing it so early in the morning was not doing anything good for the Infinite Blood Donor. She was talk about knights and the like, which probably meant she was in agreement with Ice. It seemed like she was trying to introduce herself after that, only to get talked over by Davis in some kind of emotional rant. Ouch, even Ice didn't use the C-word. It was vulgar and... just nasty. A new atmosphere swept through the room as Davis swung the sword towards the mummy, Ice's defenses grew up and he planted his feet, ready to get in a fighter's stance. [color=orange]"What the fuck are you doing?!"[/color] Again, the words were drowned out by the other guy's ranting. Something about how victory was assured using the blade and how the sword was [i]so[/i] wrong for the other chick. Hey... hey! This was not the time to be swinging around weapons, [i]especially[/i] after a night like the one with that goddamn bear. He finally went quite and started for his room, not really apologizing, but giving some kind of excuse. Ice was ready to give out a sigh of relief, hit a wall, and be done with it, when the guy pointed at him. [b]"AND YOU! If you're going to walk between two people while they're having a discussion, you can at least say EXCUSE ME!"[/b] Now, Ice wasn't the type of guy to get intimidated when a weapon was pointed at [i]him[/i], just when it was pointed at someone else. The blade may not have been sharp, but it probably would hurt like hell to get hit with. Plus, he wasn't the type of person to say polite things like, 'excuse me' or, 'if I may.' He didn't answer the stupid sap before he closed the door, just pulled one of the messy bandages around his head up a little and looked bored. After that whole upstart ended, he gave a small laugh, [color=Orange]"And here I thought we might all be able to be level headed and get along... Stupid Quack,"[/color] and with that, Ice left, not addressing the other two people in the hallway. [hr] The ground had begun to shake and made Aleecia fall to a kneeling position, her balance already compromised with her lack of sight. It sounded strangely like horse hooves, and then even more so when Aleecia felt the vibrations of the ground, but what would horses be doing inside? The chips of paint on the ground bounced and the whole thing was giving Aleecia a strange headache. People gasped as they saw who or what was coming towards them, but all Aleecia wanted to know was if there were [i]actual[/i] horses. No one said anything, seemingly too shocked and that continued to make the girl antsy. There were a cascade of different introductions, from rather happy to one that didn't seem to value herself enough, which was really too bad. The last one introduced themselves as... A sisterhood? The daughters of Dr. Killgood, oh no... it was about that weird bear again. Alexandria, Geina, Nariko, and Willow, they seemed to be the only other people she hadn't been around yet. Suddenly, something picked her up faster than she could give a sign of defiance. She was whisked onto something hard and smooth, grabbing at what was the shape of an arm as she trembled. The voice sounded kind of like Nariko... but as she felt around, it seemed they were some kind of doll-like robots, with hard joints at the arms and different limbs. If Aleecia hadn't been so curious, she probably would have apologized for touching so much, she felt the hair and everything else... Oh! It seemed the horse was made of some kind of steel and was a robot as well. Once they arrived in a new room, Nariko set her down in a seat and Aleecia tried to grab hold of her hand, only to catch air. [color=lightblue]"U-Um... thank you!"[/color] She wasn't sure exactly if she was supposed to be thankful, they had been kidnapped after all, but she offered the words anyway. [hr]Four robots and some kind of talking stuffed bear... Just the sound of it was the plot of some weird, out-of-culture TV show. But in no way was this some kind of comedy, what Dr. Killgood had said made sure of it. He didn't want to let them go, even the small and innocent and that was just not right! During the 'theater therapy' Aleecia had been trembling for a whole different reason- anger. She had been angry that the bear had put them all in this situation and all these innocent people were going to be hurt if he got his way. Just his long rant about hope gave the girl shivers. Soon after that, Aleecia had been guided by the hand by one of the sisters, though it didn't seem to be Nariko by Aleecia's calculations. She did seem a bit nicer than the rest, but all of them were involved with that bear... Once she had gotten inside, she had closed the door and slid down it, letting the tremors and tears fall. Once that was over... she had taken to the bed, slipping out of her jeans and sweatshirt, not sure whether to look for new clothes. After a second thought, she reached to the side and found that the room was really a lot like her old one and got out a nightgown from the dresser. After another round of tears, she had fallen asleep. She hadn't dreamed that night, which wasn't exactly unusual. Aleecia only had dreams every few days to once a week, but those were always her safe haven. When she dreamed, they were actually just a replay of past memories when she could see. The times she was able to sneak out with her older brother or gotten to watch a movie... But no, she hadn't gotten one of those last night. Feeling around the room once she woke up, there seemed to be a large closet of cards and board games, though not many had a blind version. A CD case sat next to it, full of what seemed to be audiobooks and... past horse races, which made the girl shiver. It was part of her Infinite after all... Worried she wouldn't be able to hand the room any longer, she slipped the horse races into the trash and slipped a new pair of jeans and a shirt from her dresser, before putting her green sweatshirt back on. After she found a brush and did her best to brush it all out. She was getting a little miffed because she was just so [i]sure[/i] that her parting was off, but there wasn't much she could do about it. There was a great yelling outside that made her flinch. Aleecia reached for the E-Handbook she had gotten from the Sisters and held it annoyed. There was no real way she would be able to read it... Or the rules. Once everything had calmed down outside, she left the room and came up to the other people of the group. She had heard a cassette tape, so she could only guess there was the girl from when she first stepped out of the elevators... and someone she didn't know. Saddened she couldn't ask Rika, she turned towards the other person who she had deduced was male. [color=lightblue]"Um... Excuse me... Could you maybe help me with my handbook? I would like to know the 'rules' Dr. Killgood talked about before..."[/color] She rubbed her feet together in her shoes. She knew the lights were too bright in the room to even try opening her eyes, but still felt the urge to, from when she used to be able to see.
