Dawn of Day 2
Despite the day’s events, two figures enter the auditorium long after the night had settled in. The first scribbled a quick note and then fled out the main doors back into the dark, disappearing forever. The second lingered, looking around rather dumbly.
Vonalzo, infuriated but so drained from earlier, walks in, alerted the the figure’s presence. “Did you not even bother to read anything I’ve written?” He sighed. “You learned nothing. Just–just get out.” With a quick wave of his hand, he forced the contestant out the main doors, locking them once more. His posture is hunched over and he carries none of the vibrant life that he had before, eyes dark and devoid of colour. “Sometimes I wonder...” His words trail off under his breath as he trudges back to his room.
“What’s the point?”
During the night, the group of figures from before meet in the same spot and begin to discuss. It takes much longer to come to a decision than it did the previous night. However, they all part ways, content with their decisions.
Umbreyta, eyes gleaming with determination, exits their room, goal sharply in mind. A smile tugs at the corners of their mouth as they approach their target’s room. Politely, they knock upon the door.
“Hello, anyone home?” they call out. However, no one answers from inside the room. Irritated, they slam their hand on the door then try for the doorknob. Unfortunately, they find the door locked. Once again, they slam the door. “Come on, open the door. I just want to talk to you.”
Before anything else can happen, footsteps begin to grow louder as a figure appears down the hall, walking towards Umbreyta. Afraid of getting spotted, they flee from the door and run back to their own room. Once inside, they throw the nearest thing they can find against the wall. Their one chance gone just like that, stopped by some stupid lock on a door.
In a deserted hall, Sam leaves a room not their own and starts heading down the hall in high spirits. They think over their conversation with the other and smile, remembering the fun they’d had with their companion, even if their meeting was under some unusual and unexpected circumstances.
As they approach they own room, they notice the door is cracked open, definitely not how they left it. Panic piercing their heart, they rush forward and throw open the door as they enter.
The first thing they see is a bed with a large, dark stain spread out over it. Hey fall to their knees in the doorway. Despite the limited lighting and also because of having any light at all, they are able to tell the stain is red. Blood.
“No,” they whisper. “Daralis?”
Unbeknownst to them, a figure had appeared in the doorway behind them. In one quick move, they have a knife pressed to Sam’s throat.
“Hello, dear Sam,” they croon. “I wanted to get you first, but, alas, when I got here, the only person to be found was Daralis. They seemed rather ill, not having been in the auditorium yesterday. I hope you don’t mind, but I put them out of their misery.”
“Sydänsuru,” Sam breathes, recognising the voice of their attacker. “You’re horrible.”
“Why, thank you.” The figure laughs. “I hope you enjoy where ever it is your soul ends up.”
Blood spills onto the carpet and Sam’s body pitches forward, a cut running from one side of their neck to the other.
The next morning, everyone gathers in the auditorium, looking around. No one had heard anything, but there were two missing from their numbers.
Vonalzo walks out onto the stage, looking exhausted. His eyes stare at the ground and his hair is a rat’s nest. “I have news,” he announces. “Sam and Daralis–or, as you know them, Tanglefire and DarkInsight were found dead in their room this morning.” He pauses, taking a deep and shaky breath. “Additionally, Underworld71 has been removed from the game.” Without staying to linger, he vanishes back down the hall. If one listens closely, they might hear muffled sniffles and barely held back sobs.
