Silent Hill: Day 3

[fh_beasties]

The Grand Hotel by morning is only marginally less eerie than it is by night. Outside, though, under the falling ash, there's a piece of Fandom you're supposed to be looking for, right?

[OOC: OPEN, last Silent Hill post, and up early for great... me not having to wake up until noon. Warning, many icons, links, and...pretty much the entire

The Grand Hotel: Wakey Wakey, Out You Go

[fh_beasties]

Do what you need to do (housekeeping will not be arriving with clean towels or a new toothbrush) then hit the road, Jack!

Didi silently rolled off the bed and away from Jono and went into the bathroom. After an agonizingly long moment, she got a little rusty water out of the tap -- she wouldn't drink it, but it was enough to tame her hair and wash away the last of her eye make-up.

She looked in the cloudy mirror. Still herself. Still Death, even if she didn't feel much like her. This was nothing.

And then she squared her shoulders and moved on to face the day.

Bod had slept maybe twenty minutes last night. He was glad to wake up though, glad that he wasn't dead even if he hurt all over. His poor burned leg was going to ache for awhile.

Still, he was alive and they'd had news from the island yesterday so he felt slightly better about things than before.

Leia didn't sleep much; every little sound woke her up. When she finally rose for the day she made sure Tahiri hadn't disappeared during the night, then set about combing her hair with her fingers and braiding it tightly so that it wouldn't get in the way today.

The Streets of Silent Hill (Ash World)

All the empty shops are still there, the police station, the cafe... the dogs, the men with no arms.

However. Remember those rips in space that tore you from Fandom? The one from the school? The one from last night near the hotel?

There's more of them now, and they seem to be leading up the hill towards the church.

Could be a thing.

Jono was not going to be facing today with a smile on his face and a spring in his step, no. But he wasn't about to stay inside to play sitting duck again, either. He'd made promises to people, that he'd do something, that he'd get them the hell out of there if it was at all in his power to do so.

... And it was entirely possible that he'd made those promises just as much for their sake as he had to give himself an excuse not to give up.

He didn't care what he looked like, anymore. He didn't care who stared or who ran or who followed. If the tears were leading that way, then that was the way he was heading.

Even with as tired and sore as he was, seeing those out of place rips gave Bod a little bit of energy. They'd appeared on the island, they were here so maybe there was a connection.

Or maybe he was just so tired, his brain was stretching for reasons to not give up. He was still standing though and still pushing so he wasn't there yet.

Katniss, her bow still strung with an arrow (though the ends of her arrows were beginning to look significantly less clean than they had when she'd first landed here), fell into cautious step beside him. She might not admit it, but she didn't want Bod to have to use that knife she'd given him any more than necessary. It was bad enough that she was prepared to kill. Other people didn't need to be.

"Those look like what I fell through," she murmured, nodding to a rip and shaking ash out of her braid.

Darkness Falls

[fh_beasties]

Here comes that siren again, blasting through the stifling air as the skies get darker and darker. This time, though, you're outside, and can watch as the first sign of life in this town rushes past: black-clad men and women, pouring from seemingly empty buildings, tins of food and other supplies clutched in their arms as they all run, panicked, towards the sound of the siren. Towards the church. And well they might, since as the sky turns truly black, a tall, shirtless figure with a very long knife comes lurching up the street towards you.

Into the Church

[fh_beasties]

A few of you who were smiled on by the RNG may catch up with those black-clad folk and get swallowed up into the crowd, swept into the apparent safety of the church. You might want to shy away from talking to them, though - their mode of dress may look a little familiar, if you were admiring the artwork in the hotel last night. If you need a reminder? Within the soaring cathedral, behind the altar, is a GIANT version of that same painting.

Re: Into the Church

[living_endless]

Well, Didi was wearing black, and churches were sacred ground, right? Safer. Peaceful.

Or so she'd keep telling herself.

Blending into the group felt like a natural choice. She concentrated on seeming invisible.

The Darkness Lifts!

And with it, the pyramid-headed maniac disappears. The cultists remain in the church, and the streets, ash still falling above them, are left empty for our fighters, hiders, and church-sneakers to regroup.

Follow the rips, share what you've learned.

[fh_beasties]

Shock of shocks, that trail of space-time rips leads right past the church and into the forbidden zone of the crumbling hospital.

Brookhaven Hospital!

Grab them from behind the nurse's station and do field first-aid if needed.

Ping in here if so! You're also very welcome to mod any of the creatures listed in the Monster Index for the streets before Darkness Falls.
