I think we [i]shouldn't.[/i]" The witch-girl sheepishly replied to Paige's idea, realizing that it was a terrible idea. For starters, as cold as it made Lynette feel, they weren't heroes. Paige was a crippled girl and the best thing that Lynette herself had going for her was the glyphs that she barely understood, nor utilized to their maximum effectiveness. Second, they had no idea what was in the hospital or what they were dealing with - they could be facing down the Glutton which Lynette felt was, for all intents and purposes, completely unstoppable. Though, she had to admit that strength in numbers and they would have a [i]far[/i] better chance in that snowstorm if they had the help of friends. Or reliable transportation. Or actual clothes. If they were going to do anything they should at least get information on the situation. "Actually, let's assess the situation first just to make sure we aren't walking into a trap," Lynette started off. "We need to find the others if we're going to stand a chance out here... and I'd like to find my clothes."

He let out a barrage of swear words as he stumbled backward. Justin managed to catch his breath as he fell to his knee... before he slammed his fist on the tile. The flaming tiger quickly slashed at the man's chest and left deep slashes in his chest that was immediately burnt shut. It would have been an attack that would have killed anyone else, but this man was still going. He growled as he faced down the tiger which merely opened its mouth and unleashed a flamethrower of flames on the man. As he was being immolated, the man came to a stop. "It's useless! You may kill me, but God has already redeemed me!" In a gruesome display, he grabbed one of his ribs and ripped open his chest. He reached into his torso and clenched his heart with a sickening sound. He immediately dropped dead as his body burned and Justin had to resist the urge to vomit. That leads him to the nurse Caelea was fighting. She went flying across the room towards the wall but as she was getting up, she was suddenly struck by a metallic object by a third party that knocked her over. "Take that you evil bitch!" A third party shouted loud enough to catch everyone's attention. It was an incredibly tall girl with black hair with blue highlights... that Justin immediately recognized. "... Zoey?!" Justin asked. "In the flesh, baby." Zoey answered. As the nurse was crawling on the floor to get back her pipe she suddenly stopped. "Oh, I see..." She said to herself as she reached for a pair of scissors. With both hands, she poised to stab herself in the neck, "Take me into heaven, o' kind lord." She jammed the scissors into her neck, before yanking them out as blood spurted out. She jammed them back in as she fell slumped over, dead, with her last words being "... Redemption." The Soul-Self immediately vanished. "Wait, ma'am!" Justin tried to stop the woman with an outstretched hand but by the time he got there, the woman had already killed herself. He stood there, staring at the woman with wide eyes for a moment before he shook his head and turned towards Zoey. "Zoey, you woke up?" "Obviously, how long have I been under?" "That's the thing," Justin shook his head. "I don't even know how long [i]I've[/i] been under." "Well, fuck," Zoey hissed, "C'mon, we gotta find the others... You know where Claire is?" That was a question that left Justin frozen in his tracks. He vividly recalled Claire's death, as the image of her dead body on the Glutton's hand flashed through his mind over and over again. Justin didn't want to drop the bomb on Zoey just yet, because this was going to be a tough one. "I have no idea," Justin just answered for right now. "We should find the others before more of them come."
