From the sounds of it one of the others named Krista had been taken by a robot named Nariko and the machine wanted Aleecia in exchange, Ellie remained silent as the others began coming up with ideas when Thomas joined in and began suggesting that they do nothing, Max gave his opinion on most of his suggestions. The Caretaker silently agreed with the police officer but wanted to give her own two cents to the situation. "[color=cyan]Thomas, everyone, we can't allow Neoslayer or Davis to get what he wants, even his machines. If they take our people then what's to stop them from just taking us one by one when we're all at our most vulnerable if they succeed in killing Krista, then they will know they can always just corner us and kill us when we are alone, if we give them Aleecia then they will know they always will have some kind of power over us when they take someone from the group.[/color]" Ellie bit into her knuckle thinking about what they could do. "[color=cyan]This will sound stupid, but. If we want to get Krista from Nariko, then we'll need to speak to her and if we want a chance to speak to her then we'll need to bring Aleecia to the morgue but keep her from Nariko.[/color]" She held the sides of her head and closed her eyes thinking of what they could do. Then that Dreadful bear arrived out of the floorboards and began talking about,"His daughter." For the first time in forever, Ellie started to get a headache as the bear began talking about making a plan and helping if they would have him."[color=cyan] Yes![/color]" Ellie yelled at him." You could do something to help us." Ellie told the bear, robot, thing.

Rika snuck around the blood giver and stood up on her tippy toes to blow into the back of his ear and tried to pull him away from the group to talk with him."[color=firebrick] Talk, Ice, I want.[/colo]" She played her tape and pulled on his shirt."[color=firebrick] Ice, I want to talk.[/color]" The recorder sputtered. She pulled on his clothes and tried to pull him away from Aleecia as Monokuma appeared, he had a slight argument with Davis on some speakers, Rika decided to mess with the infinite perfection by holding up her recorder and playing something she thought funny on her tape."[color=firebrick]You're not perfect.[/color]" A calm voice emerged from her recorder. She didn't know if he heard her, but even if he didn't she at least got something out it. She remembered when the jerk insulted her with the C word. While everyone wanted to continue with the idea of Monkuma helping them, Rika found the strength to pull Ice away from the group to talk with him, she didn't think she'd get another chance to talk to him."[color=firebrick] Ice, I am sorry.[/color]" She touched his face again with a burned hand."[color=firebrick] Talk, I wanna.[/color]" She lowered the volume of her recorder.
