((The way this thread is edited, you may have some scrolling to do in order to read it. Relatively unaltered posts sit in their original positions, which might be halfway down a page full of spoilered old versions.))(ORIGINALLY...) Eli stepped out into the hallway. It was so...old? Where were they? And how had their captors even found this place? Why had they been dumped off here? It was certainly not in working order, no way. This was crazy.
In the back of his mind, he wondered what those dreadful people planned to do with him and the rest of the crew. When would they be back? He wished the answer to that was 'never.'
Hearing Jason's voice, he looked back. "Your eyes...!" There was no denying it...They had become monsters.

While the rooms had ceilings, the hall didn't. A warehouse ceiling was visible high above. The walls around them were about twelve feet high, and there were ten doors. Each side of the hall had four doors, all numbered one through eight. At the far ends of the hall there were additional unlabeled doors.
Eli turned around to see his friends' creepy glowing eyes! He gripped on the door frame to keep from stumbling back with the shock. Eli- "Ohhh we're vampires. Yep. You two look like cats in the dark." August stepped into the light of the hall with a worried face. August- "What? I'm fine see? I ain't a cat. Do I got fangs or something?" Where were they? At least it wasn't really a hospital but what was it? He was incredibly relieved to be leaving that room behind.(ORIGINALLY...)August stepped into the light of the hall with a worried face."What? They're fine see?" He couldn't help noticing how much this hall would make an excellent set for a scary movie. The old look, gawky colours and that eery wheelchair just sitting there. If they weren't already up to their ears in real life gore that is!
He was incredibly relieved to be leaving that room behind. What in Clancy's name awaited them further in? He really wished he had his gun now. "No, no...look at Jason. See how his eyes glow in the dark? It's like we're...animals."
"Actually ....I guess that's an appropriate description for us, now...." Eli remembered his hunger. He wondered what he might do if blood wasn't so readily available. "Well, I guess we know they want to keep us, at least a little longer... Otherwise, I don't see why they'd give us the IVs, or use the tarps..." "But why us? And why stick us here, of all places? Surely, they must realize some of us would try to escape, so why risk it? I don't get it..." Eli could kind of justify part of it... He understood why diablo madre might want him.. but it wasn't like their host knew what all the crew looked like. Maybe they did this sort of thing randomly, plucking out the poor souls that they desired...

Eli- "You're all... glowy-eyed. Like, pew-pew lasers... Ohh I wish that was a joke."
Jason- "Maybe we are animals. Whatever we are we aren't 'people' anymore.."
Eli- "Hey, a person's a person... even if they're a-- *sigh*"
He ventured a few steps down the hall, a hand tracing on the wall. Something about the construction seemed rickety and false. Like the walls could just fall over if you pushed them hard enough. There were some creaks and and groans from the building, but no growling or snarling from eerie lurking monsters.(ORIGINALLY...)Jason widened his eyes in shock. He looked at the others to see what they were so worked up about. Shit..
"Apparently I'm not the only one whose eyes are glowing.. maybe we are animals. Whatever we are we aren't 'people' anymore.."
"Now that I think of it, maybe they wanted us alive. Maybe they wanted to test us and see how we'd react like this.."
"Well, blood tastes like the best damn thing I've ever had, my heart isn't beating, I don't need to breathe, and I have super senses... I think it's safe to say none of us are alive, at least in the conventional sense. And probably vampires." "But...that's a good theory. It's possible they're either trying to find out how capable we are...or testing how our personalities have changed after we, you know, woke up in the most horrifying situation ever." Ugh, he wished he'd at least woken up in a sterile environment. This was so nasty. He was tempted to take off his sticky gown. Maybe Jason had a good idea with his towel style.

August- "Well I feel like a person still, so that counts. I ain't gonna be sniffing behinds any time soon." In the light of the corridor August noticed something was missing. Something was off, like not where it should be but what? August- "..." August- "Lawdamimbo! They're gone." Eli- "What?? What's wrong?" Eli ran through any number of missing attributes one could have, but Jason seemed to be displaying the full complement of body parts just fine.
August's voice was high pitched and raspy. August- "Me arms! Lawdamimbo! Look! They've somehow lasered me tattoos off. Who in tarnation does that??"
August- "Quick! Is me rose still there?" Eli- "Wh-- what...?" He stepped toward August haltingly. Eli- "On your neck...? It's..." Eli- "Oh... I'm sorry..."
Jason looked at the inside of his left forearm to see if his feather tattoo was still there... nothing. Then, he turned to look at the tattoo that Edy gave August. Jason- "AW FUCK! It took Edy FOUR HOURS to do your tattoo, August!!"
August- "You're telling me. I was having me skin jabbed for those four hours. In the neck. Not to mention the cost. Lawdamimbo. What kinda monsters are they? Are we? Did y'all lose anything else?" Eli ran his fingers over his ears and shook his head. Eli- "My earrings are still in... And so are Jason's. It's so weird. You can't just take someone's tattoos off and redye their hair and..."
Jason- "I'll give you a new one for free August. I never did repay you for giving me the opportunity to help with the film."
Eli- "Aw, that's sweet. It's so weird though, what are we? Maybe it's a little like Rebirth of the Dark Ones and we're more beautiful but--"
Eli- "I guess that's hard to tell at this point."
August- "That's real nice of ya, Jase. I appreciate it. Awww we were always beautiful but yeah, the blood doesn't help. We look like Blood River 9 victims or something."
August- "Let's rescue our friends. They're probably still in their own gunk or something grody like that. Poor blighters." (ORIGINALLY...) "Speaking of blood do we even have any blood left in our bodies? The majority of my blood is either on the outside of my body, on my hospital gown, or back in the room. And I don't even know if that's your blood or my blood on you.." That didn't sound very consoling..
"And if we really are.. the undead. Why did they pick us? Eli waited a moment, before speaking in a soft, sad voice. "Toys....I think we're going to be their toys..." In truth, Eli was making a fair bit of this up as he went along. Some of it made sense, from observation, but a lot of this was just guessing. Either way, he figured they'd learn the truth soon enough...
"It probably started with Chloe attracting Wilhelm somehow, and they chose us randomly...She brought them to us. Thus explaining the fact that they didn't know shit about the film or about us, beyond it being about vampires. I mean, good as any, right? Teach those kids not to mock vampires."

(ORIGINALLY...) Damn, maybe Eli was right now that he thought about it..
"Toys? If we were their toys why would they bother introducing us to the guests? Was it all a game from the start? And Shit.. Do you really think Chloe would do that to us purposefully? The way that she apologized back at the party made me figure that maybe she wasn't in on it."
"The fact that she apologized makes it even more likely she knew something bad was going to happen. Why else would she be crying? I said it before, but I don't think she did it to be evil...but either out of necessity or loneliness or something else..."
"And they introduced us so they could pick their toys... It's like rifling through a toybox. Kids having their friends over, they have to share."

(ORIGINALLY...)
"I don't think that I could forgive those fuckers.. I couldn't forgive them. They purposefully killed us then took our rights as people. Not to be negative but we probably won't ever be accepted in society as humans anymore. We have no choice but to kill or be killed.. like what would happen if we don't have blood to feed on? If were hungry we might be forced to go off and kill some innocent bastard. THEY TURNED US IN TO ANIMALS- I WONT FORGIVE THEM." Jason bit the corner of his bottom lip as he tried his best to contain all his rage.. "Calm down. We don't have to kill anyone. The IVs worked fine, right? No reason robbing a blood bank or a hospital wouldn't work. Or...find donors."
"And we still look like humans...mostly. We might be freaks, but it's not like we look like zombies. We aren't shambling or visibly rotting. Hell, Wilhelm and the rest fooled us." "We can't fight...yet. There's too many of them and too few of us. We need to escape, formulate a plan. Then we can do what we have to do."

(ORIGINALLY...) Jason paused to pull himself together. Eli was right, it was a bad idea to go around and start killing.. besides, he was outnumbered.. "You're right.. but before we escape we should probably look around and find the others. I'm sure were not the only ones still alive in this hell hole.." "You don't have to tell me that. I'm not leaving until I find Leo. And Quinn, too."

(ORIGINALLY...)Jason put his hand on Eli's shoulder. "Don't just focus on saving two people. We need to go find as much of the crew as we can."

"I think we fucking shall!" Could be heard from an opened door from somewhere down the hall. Those voices.. Who could it be?!Room four's door had been flung wide opened, and two figures stepped out, covered in blood. Leo left bloody footprints in her wake - She was walking backwards, back to everyone except Quinn. She was strangely cheery. "Okay, so, my dad might be able to get us some money.."

Quinn looked more shaky on his legs, but the look on his face wasn't a trifling one by any means. Since he was actually facing the people in the hallway, he saw them first, eyes going wide."Eli! August! You're alive!...Please tell me you're alive..." Then he spied Jason."Stars and garters! Is that Jason?! What happened to you!?"

It was ironic that survivors showed up.. Jason- "Damn, I thought you guys were dead! Well permanently dead at least.. and alive? Hell no, we're all dead. I'm covered in my own blood and I'm pretty sure my intestines are in the other room. Plus, I can't breathe nor can I feel my heartbeat. Eli and August are the exact same way..
Fuck! Am I the only one who looks like roadkill?"
Eli- "Yeah that's... basically the scenario? Leo-- thank god. Oh... oh man..."
August- "There ya go, Eli. It wasn't Leo after all." "Bombaroo! Y'all are alive! That means the others are too, right?"
August- "I ain't 100% on that but... It's probably true. Like stuffed kangaroos. Without the stuffing..." (ORIGINALLY...)Eli- "Leo! My joy fills me with rage, inexplicably! KILL!"To Eli, "ELI CALM YOUR SHIT! You just talked to me about killing those fuckers not too long ago so don't go back on your word! We aren't killing NO ONE until we find the rest." This was the second time that Jason had to tell Eli to calm down.

Leo was frozen solid, shocked. Thank goodness they were okay! Leo- "Eli! Ohmygod, I swear if you weren't gay I'd kiss you right now!"
Eli- "Girl kisses aren't like, garlic to me... But thanks for acknowledging my sexuality. Um, damn. Are you okay? Your eyes..."
Leo- "I'm... okay I think. So is Quinn."
Eli- "Oh yeah, Quinn. Nice, bro."
Leo- "Hey.. Shouldn't we like, save the others and stuff? Do we know which rooms they are in?"
Eli- "No idea, we're just about to start exploring." (ORIGINALLY...)Leo was frozen solid, shocked. Thank goodness they were okay! "Eli! Ohmygod, I swear if you weren't gay I'd kiss you right now!"
"I'm.. okay I think. So is Quinn." And then she noticed Jason, practically naked and bloody. "Worshiper fucking Cedric man! Why are you naked?!" Eli- "AIEEE! THEY HURTED LEOoo! ALL MY FAULT!! BETTER LYFE!1!"

Quinn turned to Jason.
Quinn- "I have to admit, you look the worst out of us... but we're more or less alright, I think."
August- "Well, I reckon we just start opening doors one by one. It ain't pretty in those rooms. Heh." (ORIGINALLY...)Quinn jumped at Eli's impassioned outburst, startled. He stood quietly while Leo calmed him down and when he seemed depressed, the musician finally spoke up."Eli...I think we all screwed up pretty spectacularly. We're considerably past the blame stage...what's important now is getting everyone out of here who CAN be got out." He turned to Jason. "I have to admit, you look the worst out of us... but we're more or less alright, I think." August was next. "You? Are you okay?"

(ORIGINALLY...) "Naked? Oh, the gown was literally attached to my skin because the blood had soaked through. So, I took that shit off."
"Have any of you drank blood yet?"

(ORIGINALLY...)That didn't make a lick of sense to Leo. Her memory was cloudy, with pieces missing. Like her brain was a block of swiss cheese. "Sorry for what..? Listen man, I can't remember shit, so if you did something.. It's been forgiven, okay? No worries. I'm just glad you're oka-" She eyed the blood covering a little more than half his body, "Alive (?)" She looked down at the hospital gown she was wearing. It was damp with blood and clung to her body. Nasty!
"..I don't suppose anyone has found showers yet? ..And, yeah, we both did Jason. Me and Quinn. Shit was.. so good.."
