A hospital bed in the middle of an empty beach? That seems... Suspicious, and the implications of 'contagious' are equally disturbing. Looking at the object in the distance again; you sigh, and look back at concerned Aby.
"Think I will pass, if you say so."
Beaming smile dons her face at your response. "Correct choice." She chirps and snatches your arm and tugs you towards the jungle. "Now, let's get to the second point while we still can. PLANS!" ...and away from the curio.
Doubtfully, you say: "lead the way..."
Mere blink afterwards, you find yourself seated cross-legged at a campfire near the treeline... It's night, the last honey-like rays of sunlight paint the ocean orange. Together with you, two others seat in a circle. That was fast...
The cracking of the flame is interrupted as Aby rises and proclaims: "let the meeting start! Let's discuss." Then sits down with a smile.
You might as well start... "Well, I have a ques-"
"Let's start with how we are alive!" Aby cuts you. Eh?
Then Spirit slowly stands up. "Veto." He huffs. "You know the same as us. Nothing. Don't escape uncertainty with useless blabbering."
"Usele- What?! We know a lot..!"
"Cut it. Don't muddy the waters with mere conjecture. Something happened, we don't know what. Well, 'we'." He says sternly, and looks at the beach.
A look of worry crosses Aby's visage. "We don't need her. We don't owe her!"
Again, 'owe'... "What's the deal-"
"Let's discuss the memories then! Obviously, we can ask Seo-young, she had access to our files! Maybe we could sneak into the principal's office and get it? We could block the door and let poison in, we could use Jaq's henchman, or sneak attack and clobber her to death!" She squeaks excitedly.
As you listen to both of them bicker, with no way for you to get in, you realize something: who are those people really? Some kind of illusion? Another trick? Distraction? And what's this thing?!
You think, as you look at the faraway dot on the beach brightened by mysterious white light.
...Wait! The space you are in losses it's colors, and objects in the distance melt into one another, leaving only your campfire... And the thing.
You have to ask something... Tell them what to do, or focus on, tell them your plan? Go for this thing at the beach? What did they mean 'you don't owe her', does 'she' knows anything? Only more questions than answers...
What to do... What to do...
> Cut it! I speak...! Tell them what you think happened, or what you want to do armed with your knowledge... (write in) (Optional)
...And, before it's too late...
> Damn it! Time to move, 'she' could know why you still breathe, damn the 'contagion'... (RES-3)
> There are other ways of finding out, I guess... Ask anyone a specific question. (Write in)
> Inspect the dream and what you can do here.
