Moure watched as additional figures seemed to be arriving into their canyon of a room. He turned one of the flashlights toward where the doors were, making a sort of make-shift bridge of light between the group of students already there and the newcomers.
The one Moure noticed first was a fellow undead such as himself. However she seemed much worse for wear and--were those safety pins holding her together in some places? Moure immediately put one flashlight under his arm, pulling his back pack to the front again. He rustled through it with one hand, finally picking out what he'd packed. The patchwork Runner brought out a plastic bag that had five spools of thread and needles packed into it, along with a few rolls of heavy duty duct-tape.
Moure was very much so prepared for this trip. (And prepared for repairing patchworks, apparently.)
Immediately upon finding his repair items, he offered them out to the newcoming undead ghoul as he zipped up his pack and slung it back onto his shoulder, slightly open at the top so he could drop the materials back in after they'd been used. "Here, use these. Need any help stitching yourself up?" Moure asked, ready to help this undead ghoul if needed it. His flashlights were still in one hand, with one under his arm so that the group present had light besides Danny.

[ Entering from Room 5 ]
Darkness. That was the first thing that Xiu noticed upon arriving--it was incredibly dark here. The second thing that she noticed was that, despite her early thoughts, it wasn't just Team Mafia in this room. She could hear the voices of others, some unfamiliar, and some...
"Hel, Mot, Lattice!" She tried to turn in the direction of their voices, squinting in an attempt to make them out. What faint light she could make out was from Danny and the flashlight that Moure held. Making certain to be very careful, she took slow steps towards where Hel and the others were, pausing along her way to rest a hand on Amrita's shoulder, just to let her know that she was in here as well. With a small wave to Moure, the baku continued on her way until she reached Hel, Mot, and Lattice.
"I...I'm so glad to see you're all alright!" She probably would have thrown her arms around them in a hug, but considering that they were on a ledge, she figured that that wouldn't be the best idea. Even so, the excitement of seeing them safe and sound was painted clearly on her face. She only wished that she could have met up with her friends again in a better state than she was in right now. She could have been worse off, but her half-shredded clothing indicated that she could have been much better off as well.
"W-were you guys attacked too?"

Amrita startled when she saw something move out of the corner of her eye. Were they under attack again?! WAS THAT CRAB BACK?! Oh. No, it was just a...repair kit? Her remaining eye followed the kit to the patched up hand and arm, all the way to the student she didn't really recognize. She offered him a smile (well, as best as she could; but at least her missing skin gave her a skull-grin?), and a nod.
"P-please, that would...be very nice, thank you." The ghoul seemed relieved, but that was probably also because Xiu walked past and gripped her shoulder. Smiling again, she turned back towards the patchwork boil and his repair kit. "I'm...kind of bad at patching up...I've only been a patchwork f-for like, a month or two..." She seemed sheepish at best, awkwardly taking the hit in one of her reversed hands. Not only was the thought of getting patched up lovely (because it would hopefully make Christof not want to kill her as much), but it was a welcome distraction from Danny's fire tail. She did promise herself to not beat the ghoul with blunt objects anymore, after all.
"S-so...help would be lovely, thank you." Plus, she added mentally, her limbs felt like lead weights. Once she was patched up she'd go and see the rest of her friends, but one thing at a time, right? "U-um...I'm...uh, Amrita. I don't think we've met...?"

[Entering from room!]
"L-Lattice?"
She called out softly as she stumbled forward with a frown; something left different from before... She blinked, trying to get adjusted to the light before looking around at all the familiar and unfamiliar faces around her. She then noticed where she was. Oh gosh... Oh gosh... She was...

As the baku entered, the Runner gave her a nod and wave with his flashlight-holding hand, gesturing with his head toward the rest of the students. (At this point, Moure was pretty much a sign-post, that that was okay.)
Then, Moure gave a nod to the patchwork ghoul and returned her grin, hoping he could help her calm down at least a bit. "You're welcome." He said, pulling one of the spools from the bag, commenting as he threaded it, "It's alright. I'm a quick-fix type of repairer anyway. Once we get out of here, you'll probably have to re-enforce the stitches, but they should hold for now. Anyway, you've only been a patchwork for a few months?" It was a curious idea. She seemed old enough to be a year two, maybe. Had she just become a patchwork or something? In any case, Moure quickly removed a few pieces of duct tape from the roll on his arm, big enough to be make-shift bandages while he helped her stitch up.
"Don't worry about it. We've got to help each other out, right?" Moure said with a nod as he pulled some seperated skin together. Gently, he pressed some duct tape near the middle, and began stitching from the top down. His stitches weren't altogether the prettiest, but he was a fast stitcher. When he got the duct tape, he gently pried it from one side and continued sewing. One gash was soon repaired and he tied off the thread before moving on to the next big slash.
"I don't think so either. I'm Moure." He said as introduction, pulling a few more pieces of duct tape out. The larger gaps would take more time, so he put duct tape across them first, in case he didn't get to them before something happened.
Soon, the majority of the larger gashes were sewn back together, although the stitches were a bit slapdash. They would hold though, as long as they weren't attacked again or something. Moure sewed around the safety pins when he got to those gashes, leaving them in so that if one gave way, the other securing thing could still hold Amrita together. Finally, Moure said, "There. Those should hold, at least for now. I'd keep the pins in though, just to be safe." He put a few lines of duct tape over some of the gashes too, so that there was three things holding the ghoul together; safety pins, duct tape, and stitches.
As Moure more or less finished up her repair job, he took a spool from his bag (with the needle threaded for convenience) and a roll of duct tape from off his arm, where he'd been holding it as if it were a bracelet. He offered them out to Amrita with a nod and slight smile. "Here, take these in case anything busts. The duct tape should provide a quick fix if something happens." Moure explained with a nod, looking around for a moment after he spoke.

((Entering from Group 2's thread))
Considering where the door way, Damien fully expected it to lead back to the main gathering room, or even to his groups last trial, but the dilapidated and broken up room was just as shocking. He couldn't help but think it queer as there wasn't a task basically slapping him right in front of his face, or after a cursory glace, no kind of strange attire this time.
"Ok, where the hell am I now Bu-... Bul?" Damien asked aloud, peering around for the familiar tailed classmate of his, he could have sworn that the half beast entered before him, through a different door. The realization that TEAM VENTURE was split up was both shocking and scary. However the figures that loomed ahead at least made him feel more relaxed about the strange new room.
"Hello, who's over there?" he asked cautiously as the hell-hound slowly inched his way over to the small group amassing, and spotted faces that the knew. "Oh, long time no see!" he said goofily, waving a hand in air at the sudden unexpected reunion. The new Shiny pin that Bul gave his group members sat proudly next to his own.
Damien was going to make sure that Bul nor Cady or Bea and Willow would ever get in the situation that plagued his mind after the encounter with the dark furred creature. The fight to get stronger began right now.

Hel kept looking around as best as she could as more students seemed to file in. She squinted once more trying to make out the new arrivals, until a familiar voice called out her name. “Ah..Xiu!” The reaper called back, raising a hand to wave it in the direction she heard the Baku. “Over here, friend! Watch your step!” Once the Baku came in closer, Hel reached out and placed her hands on Xiu’s shoulders, very relieved to see her. “I’m pleased you’re here, and in one piece! Roch was so concerned about you and Amrita!”
She paused, listening to the question. “…Attacked…? Well…there was a battle that we entered in this large field near a tent…again many false reapers…what about you?”

Nefertari looked at all the students arriving, none of them were from her own group nor did she know any of them. She hoped someone from her team would show up safe, or at least someone show up that she knew. Such was the problem of being one of the new students. She hadn't had time to meet a lot of the other students, but she could change that now.
"Hi Guys, I'm Nefertari. But call me Tari. I don't see anyone from my group here yet. Glad you guys are regrouping though," she smiled. Her jewelry shown in the light of Danny's fire and her eyes danced with the flames.
"So what should we do? We need to figure out what we are suppose to do," she looked to the others.

Lattice heard Hel and suddenly wasn't so eager to talk anymore but soon she had to respond to others. While she was glad the Valkyrie was alright and in seemingly better spirits ... she wasn't exactly ready to speak with her just yet. The Engraver watched everyone talk and shuffle about she smiled when she heard Xiu, "Hello, Xiu."
She was glad the Baku was alright, "I...um..I was captured but..everything is alright now..."
The Engraver kind of glossed over the event for now.
Lizzy's voice she called out, "I'm over here Lizzy."

Amrita stayed obediantly still as Moure closed up her wounds, feeling some of it but thankfully not as bad as she felt it when she received them. Her FEAR shield had been down or close to down for too long for comfort, but the weird feeling that came with being repaired was more relief than anything.
"Err, yes. It's a long story, but, um...I'll tell you when we're not in danger?" The smile on her lips was probably a nervously shy one, but with her skull grin showing through it might have been hard to properly tell. "It...It's the least I could do, really." At one point she placed her backwards hands on his arms to steady herself, the disorientation the surroundings gave only brought about a very wobbly Vetala; not that standing still was an easy task when your toes pointed behind you.
"It's very nice to meet you, Moure!" Once he was finished she let go of him, brushing her hands down the bloody front of her dress on habit. "Oh! Thank you, I really, really appreciate this; You're very prepared!" It was impressive! When she took the spool and duct tape, she looked confused as to where to put it. OH CRAP! She left her bag in the house! With her torn up Mafia clothes! Oh jaaaack this sucked! Errr, uhhh....
She kind of just stood there for a moment, completely dumbfounded, until a stroke of brilliance came to her; the needle was tucked into her hair (though her scalp was more accurate), and the spool disappeared into her dress where it joined the pumpkin pill; the duct tape became a fashionable bracelet and voila! She didn't have to carry anything!
"Did you come across those...Hunter-Humans?" she asked him since he was there, canting her head; the phrase sounded awkward to her, but if that's what Remi called them, then that must have been what they were.

Resting her hands over Hel's, the baku wagged her tail, trying to look over her friend for any injuries. Her gaze drifted towards Lattice and Mot next, and she did the same thing, trying to look over her friends for any injuries. The fact that it was so dark didn't help, though. "Are you three hurt?" There was a pause, and then a look of panic flickered across Xiu's features. "And...and are the others okay? Mitsu? Riyo? Aniki?" She didn't see--or hear--any of them, so she assumed that they must have gone through the other door.
Hel would probably feel the baku's shoulders tense up beneath her fingers. "So you were attacked by those Hunters--that's what they're called, and I--and...and Lattice was captured?" Her eyes widened, and then she glanced between the two ghouls who had answered. Just what were those Hunters trying to do with them?
She gave a slight nod of her head as the question was turned back to her. "We...we were in our room when they suddenly showed up and started attacking us. In the end, we managed to get away, but Amrita and Remi had been badly hurt." Her ears drooped slightly at this--she really wished that she could have done more to protect them.
Xiu perked up almost immediately after when she heard a familiar voice, followed by Lattice calling back. "That's...Lizzy! Lizzy, are you okay?!"

Oh good. Hel was there with him. More students piled in. The dark place was soon filled with noise.
Xiu's fussing earned a chuckle from Mot. "I got pretty scratched up, but Hel patched me up." Mot said, patting his chest, where bandages were still seen from the opening in his shirt. "I don't know where they are though. Shun, Mitsu and Riyo. They were right behind us.." Did the House separate them?
Mot listened to what else was being explained. Ah yes, the rescue attempt. Mot's mouth formed a thin line of discomfort. All ended well enough for him, but he still felt as if he didn't do anything useful.
Lizzy's voice made his heart skip. She was here, and very not captured. Good. This time, he learned his lesson, and chose not to make goo-goo eyes in her direction. He liked having Hel not be mad at him.

(( entering from Room 14 ))
The tatzel had followed West through the door but once through, she'd automatically lost sight of him. Poof! Looking behind her at the now nonexistent door to the pink room, she noted that the others weren't right behind her either. Holly and Savior were lost somewhere as well.
There were some familiar things in this darkened room, however. The scents and sights of features she could make out with her limited vision in the dark, but hearing would play the largest factor in things she recognized. Voices were one; even then, one of the voices she'd been able to pick up was West's. How'd he get all the way over there?... White ears twitched in a general direction.
Xiu, Lattice, Lizzy, Mot, Hel ... Her ears continued to try and document who she'd been able to make out in the space.
She wanted to see all of them, but there were rocks to consider. The ground was not so consistent and stones both large and small covered the ground beneath her. The sound of a stone she kicked trailing downward like it was on a washboard of rock also told her something; they weren't that far off from a drop of some sort. Levi noted the overly darkened space then with the aid of a bit of light within the room from some of her peer's flashlights. West? ... How'd you get over there?! She said this accusingly like he'd done it on purpose. For some reason, it was what she first thought of when opening her mouth. What had he done?
Then another familiar voice came about and it was closer to her. Perking a grin, her tail caught out the form that it knew all too well, coiling around a certain hound's waist like a heat-seeking tail. Rex! She'd found Demi. kekekeke~
Her eyes were slowly adjusting. Pink room. It was so very very bright in comparison. Soon enough she'd be able to make out more of the space.

It was supposed to be so simple. say hello, find out what going on and look for his other teammates. Damien could practically feel his body stiffening in irritation at the tail that found its way around his midsection. "Oh no." he whined..... it can't be, it just couldn't be... It was. "Levi what are you doing here?" he asked exasperated as he tried to wiggle out from the hold she had on him.  "Oh, please tell me this room isn't about having to escape from your clutches." he grumbled out before stomping a foot down that let out a surprising echo that had him as quiet as a mouse. "Well, that was odd."

West kept to the shadows as more students entered the area. Lizzy, Amrita, Split Ghoul... Demi, they all seemed fine-ish, or at least Amrita was once she had been sewn up by that patchwork West didn't know. He was content to stay where he was, quietly waiting until this room's purpose became clear, but then Levi showed up. Why ya gotta blow his cover, ghoul?
"Walked in, same's you," he muttered. "Dunno why yer so slow t'get'ere." It seriously sounded like she was blaming him for the darkness and this stupid canyon, like he had set the whole thing up before she'd sauntered her way in. "An' take that stupid crown off. Thi'sn't prom." It was bad enough Mot was wearing one. He rolled his eyes when the tatzel grabbed at Demi. Let them all hug and flail around like twerps. Maybe they'd accidentally fall in the hole.
