*Knocks on your door*
Clarice: *apparently doesnt reply, as the noises continue*

Clarice: *apparently doesnt reply, as the noises continue*
<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>
*Knocks harder*
<Snipped quote by Nimda>
*there is no reply, but the green light on the door suggests that it is unlocked*
<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>
*Opens the door*
<Snipped quote by Nimda>
Clarice:
*as you walk in, faint mumbling can be heard from one of the hallways in the room. On a table, there is a half drunken bottle of wine*
<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>
Clarice?!
*Runs toward the sound*
<Snipped quote by Nimda>
*after you get through the hallway, you approach a mini lab, a glass-like pane sepearating it from the rest of the room. Clarice sits at the desk, clearly stressed. It seems she was workingo n something. She then proceeds to boot up a program on her laptop, turning on the mic to record her findings*
Project A-24, subjest 100,245 was the closest to succes, but yet failed under the extreme pressure... I'm so close to figuring this out, yet so far... if I could just figure out the exact variables that led to the incident, maybe I could figure this out... maybe I could fix this, make things the way they used to be, before i screwed it up... tomorrow, I'll restock on vibranium. The hinges on the accelerator nearly collapsed under the immense pressure, which didnt happen during the incident.. log 100,245, end.
*she then shuts it off, closing the laptop. Shen then takes a moment, thinkibg, before she gives into her emotions, placing her arms on the table, burying her face in them, as she begins to cry*

So it becomes an isolated loss?
<Snipped quote by Heroic>
-Spectre- But they have transported us here. Anyone who comes to our base comes here. We must start soon, I'm sure. Or, at least, begin preparing, if that's a thing we need to do.
<Snipped quote by Host>
Pretty much. It isn't a conundrum where the few have to win to save the many. We're fighting for ourselves.
<Snipped quote by Disdain>
All the preparation possible has been done in your absence, really. Only thing that could chang at this point is, like we said, the team's makeup, so if you want to prepare on your own in case we end up asking you, then that's really all I can ask.
<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>
C-Clarice? What's going on?
<Snipped quote by Nimda>
Clarice:
*i stop crying, turning around to see you, stunned*
... how long have you been there, how'd you even get in?..
*my voice shakes, clearly distressed*
<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>
Um... the door was open.
<Snipped quote by Heroic>
And choosing to not fight at all is not an option?
<Snipped quote by Host>
Not in my book.
<Snipped quote by Nimda>
Clarice: oh...
*my left arm appears to be bleeding*
<Snipped quote by Heroic>
What about his?
<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>
*Walks next to you and quickly grabs your arm*
What is this?
<Snipped quote by Host>
To him, it's a few of us or a lot of unawares.
<Snipped quote by Nimda>
Clarice:
*hundreds of thin scars line my arm up to my wrist, where a fresh one bleeds*
