Quinn- "As for getting out of here, Courtney, do you hear that water sound? It might give us some clue about where we are and how to go about getting out... a warehouse on the docks? Wild shot in the dark, of course, but it's a theory."
His face turned dark.
Quinn- "If they only needed to bite us a single time, I sincerely doubt Jason would look like a sloppy child's fingerpainting project."

August- "Don't worry, Cam . We'll still be cool. Lawdamimbo... You think vampires too, Court. I guess it's official then. I'm a vegan vampire. Oh lawd that sounds cheesy. Yeah, I kinda think this might be a movie set type thing. Makes sense with the fake hospital thing y'all." (ORIGINALLY...) "Your burns, man. Took you months. Damn. Well Court, we don't breathe, we're pale as a ghost and some of us have drunk.. ergh... blood. I didn't because I'm vegan. I don't know if we have reflections but our guts all came out… like a stuffed kangaroo. I can't say for sure on anything else."

Courtney- "Vampires... The movie. This is ... this is fucking absurd."
Cameron- "... I just can't..."
Courtney- "Yeah, I hear the water, too. Where's Trevor?"
Cameron- "Where's Brent? BREEE--"
Courtney put a hand over his mouth, and looked around at the lights far above, and the walls...

(ORIGINALLY...) Eli- "What're we gonna do, man? What're we gonna doooo?" August smiled encouragingly. “Well there's one door left we haven't tried, lucky number 7. Maybe they're all in there, yeah? We'll be able to escape, with our numbers we have a good chance I reckon. Perhaps we can all move to Antearctos? That'd be nice. Y'all can meet my family, except...maybe stay away from my Uncle Dazza, he's a little trigger happy if ya know what I mean.”

Eli- "A movie set... God... It makes sense. Oh please don't let this be some kind of set up for a vampire torture-porn flick--"
He hushed his voice as Leo approached. Leo- "Thank goodness you guys are okay! Damn Cameron, vampirism made you fiiiine."
Cameron- "I don't even know who I am anymore..."
Eli- "You can forge a new path in life, Uh--unlife. We believe in you." Courtney- "Vampires... The movie. This is ... this is fucking absurd." Cameron- "... I just can't..." Courtney- "Yeah, I hear the water, too. Where's Trevor?" Cameron- "Where's Brent? BREEE--"
Courtney put a hand over his mouth, and looked around at the lights far above, and the walls... Eli- "If they could hear us, they woulda heard us by now. We-- well, me for the most part, have been a bit loud." Courtney stared up at the ceiling. Courtney- "It's way out or a way in. Lord Demos could turn into a bat, right?" (ORIGINALLY...) Leo had completely tuned herself out from the group to gather her thoughts. Occasionally, she'd catch snippets of the conversation, such as August's tattoo being missing, and that made her turn around to check her shoulder. Yep, her tattoo was gone too. It was weird having to forcibly take breaths to sigh, her lungs were kind of useless now. She looked up briefly to see Cameron, Courtney, Ru, and Babette had all made an appearance. "Thank goodness you guys are okay! Damn Cameron, vampirism made you fiiiine." At least she seemed calm now. Cameron- "I don't even know who I am anymore..."
"The docks? I hadn't thought of that... I suppose anything's possible." "No... I don't think this was an accident. If it was that easy, then there'd be a lot more vampires, I'm sure. Plus, why would they give us a blood IV, if it was a mistake?"
Eli closed his eyes and thought back. There was something he remembered, something that had annoyed him. At least, enough to make an impression... He'd remembered it before, vaguely, but now it returned with clarity.
....
"Your show is in a month, yes? But it's just a student show, you could just as easily skip it and go straight into the world of the anointed, if you will - the places where artists of special vision and beauty are held aloft by the adoring crowds." "...The world of the anointed...! Divine intervention!" Cameron- "Ugh, don't say that." "No, no. I'm certain this wasn't an accident. What happened to us... it's special for some reason. Maybe the "who" wasn't as important... but what they did was no mistake. They wanted this." "...Brent? I'm sure he's fine, and the others too. Or, um, conscious at least.... I mean, the rest of us were..right? Whatcha looking at?" Eli turned to look at whatever Cameron and Courtney were seeing. She was just looking at that open ceiling. Courtney- "Just... It's way out or a way in. Lord Demos could turn into a bat, right?"

"Well there's one door left we haven't tried, lucky number 7. Maybe they're all in there, yeah? We'll be able to escape,with our numbers we have a good chance, I reckon. Perhaps we can all move to Antearctos? That'd be nice. Y'all can meet my family, except...maybe stay away from my Uncle Gazza, he's a little trigger happy if ya know what I mean.
Babette- "That's right, Eli, forging a new path... We've been given the most ... the most coveted gift. Why not celebrate? Why not embrace this? Why not be happy? Let's find an escape route and seize the night."
Eli- "I guess that's a positive attitude to have? But uh, let's continue that train of thought later."
Leo took a step forward and gestured to everyone, Leo- "Are you serious Babs? Look at us! Do you really think this is the time to throw a party?"
Eli slipped past them to join August. Eli- "At least everyone's healthy enough for... conversation." August noticed the door labeled number 7 opening. August- "Yeah, it's better than the alternative. Was Babs always this kooky? Anyhow, look! The door. It's moving on it's own. Shall we help out the others? It must be Brent and the other two!" He motioned for Eli to follow him to the door. A naked Jason followed like an obvious ninja. August was relived to see Trevor and Sophie but he couldn't hide some disappointment when there was no Brent to be seen.(ORIGINALLY...) "That's right, Eli. We've been given the most ... the most coveted gift. Why not celebrate? Why not embrace this? Why not be happy? Let's find an escape route and seize the night." Perhaps Babette completely misinterpreted Eli's use of the word "special" ... Perhaps.Why the hell was she so....accepting of their fates? She almost looked like she enjoyed this. Something was up. "Babette, dear, tell me what you know. Do you remember anything?"
"Do you remember what happened to us? Did la mujer- ....the red woman do this to me? What of the others?"

(ORIGINALLY...)Celebrate? Was she kidding? Leo took a step forward and gestured to everyone, "Are you serious Babs? Look at us! Do you really think this is the time to throw a party?"

She bit her lower lip sweetly and glanced at sensitive Ru and Courtney. Babette- "They killed us. Violently. Visceral. And they drank from our poor ouchies. We cannot reverse this. You do not want to know more. At least ... not now."
Babette- "And no, Leo. The party comes after we escape. So let's get to it. Hu-rah." Ru seemed weary and sad, and somewhat distant from Babette's fate. Something awful had happened, and they knew, but weren't telling. Maybe it was all for their benefit. He seems concerned, particularly for Babette's odd behavior, but maybe such things became her. Then again what happened was probably very traumatic. Though he might not know for sure, he had a few guesses.
Eli and August returned from the hall as he spoke. Quinn- "So...that's it then? We're just accepting this?" He wasn't trying to be rude, just trying to make sense of the words flying around him...of their situation. August- "Not much choice, Q. Until we know otherwise. We should keep moving, still no Brent. Poor hambalos... I hope he escaped or something. What did you see, Babs?" The door to room 7 flew open! Sophie- "Guys!" Sophie nearly ran down the hall to meet her friend, her makeshift spear still in hand. "What a sight for sore eyes! Are you all okay?"
"Oh, Sophie, Love, you ..." She noticed the red slash of blood across Sophie's neck and cringed.
"... poor thing."
Eli, Jason and August rejoined the others in the hall. Eli- "Oh god, I'm so happy. See... we'll be okay! We've got each other." He got a bit teary eyed and smeared blood all over as he attempted to wipe it away with the back of his hand.
Hidden by the dim light, nobody noticed just what Trevor was doing as they briefly peeked into room 7. He had first intended to get a better look at what was left of his past life, but decided not to waste the body that had served him so well. He entered the hall satisfied and bloodier than ever. Trevor - "..." (ORIGINALLY...)She bit her lower lip sweetly and glanced at sensitive Ru, Courtney, and August. "They killed us. Violently. Visceral. And they drank from our poor ouchies. Eli, we cannot reverse this. You do not want to know more. At least ... not now."
"And no, Leo. The party comes after we escape. So let's get to it. Hu-rah."

(ORIGINALLY...)Ru- Ru lowers his voice and speaks very quietly to Eli. He seems weary and sad, and somewhat distant from Babette's fate. "...Eli, I don't know if it is appropriate to probe them." Ru didn't miss the strange look that Babette and August had shared.
Something awful had happened, and they knew, but weren't telling. Maybe it was all for their benefit. He seems concerned, particularly for Babette's odd behavior, but maybe such things became her. Then again what happened was probably very traumatic. Though he might not know for sure, he had a few guesses. "If she was the one that chose you, then it probably was, Eli."

(ORIGINALLY...) "....Fine. Just, please, please answer me that one question. Was I right? Was it the red woman?"
He had to know. If the woman was indeed the one who...'chose' him, as Ru had put it, then he would need to be especially wary of her. If he did escape, surely she would come for him.
She couldn't resist his sad Boytown eyes.
"Don't worry about that, Love. Sarah didn't seem to like you very muu ... oh, you mean red dress. I don't know. Sadly, I was a bit distracted last night. Was it last night? They took my purse, my phone. I have no concept of time anymore."

(ORIGINALLY...)She thought for a moment, and turned to Eli, "Angela, bud. Her name was Angela." The more she thought of it, the more she'd like to know if that Ellen woman did this to her, as well. She waited after Babette had answered Eli to ask, "Babette.. Did Ellen do this to me? "Oh... I couldn't even remember. Thanks."
Angela. The woman he should fear is named Angela. He would remember that.

(ORIGINALLY...) For awhile now, Jason had been a bit 'out-of-it'. He didn't even realize when Cameron and Courtney returned earlier. All he could focus on was his anger and frustration on the situation.

(ORIGINALLY...) "How do you know all this Babs?" August noticed the opening door. "Hey, it's opening anyway. Brent? Trevor? Sophie?"
