THE DORMS
There was nothing else special about the folder in Mimsy's hands unless she favoured blank sheets of paper. As she held onto the folder though, or rather visibly, picked it up, a series of paperclips would fall out of the folder. They were just ordinary, flat paperclips, without any significance, it seemed. They were however, very colourful.

Armagnac huffed. She was done listening to this. And Jake was utterly wrong, brute force was a way to solve everything. Sherry had already proven that just by getting past those silly guards. Ever the voice of reason. Sherry sighed, trying to listen to what Armagnac said. She didn't like it, but they didn't have time for this crap. "I wasn't planning to babysit you; I just thought it might be altogether safer to stick together. I wanted you with me." She was scared, even if she didn't want to SAY it. So she shrugged. "But fine. If you really want to go running off alone..." She turned toward what seemed to the be the sound of an explosion. Fighting. He was right, she was a medic, but she felt pretty useless without her runic assistance. Brute force and bandages. That's what she had. And then she turned, ready to press onward. But not for the hospital, she could make her own decisions, too, Jake. "I'd rather you didn't."

Hospital"I didn't have the dream," Jordan answered, almost absently, as he deciphered the shaky handwriting. When Kostya stated that the unknown observer was writing to them, he looked over, just in time to see Peyton click the yes button. "Get out of here," Jordan shouted, and grabbed Peyton's arm to pull her out the door. You must wait for her to find you.He hesitated. Then, maybe you stand a chance.Jordan pushed Peyton towards the door, let go of her and turned to face the computer, gritting his teeth.

HOSPITALThe second Peyton pressed "YES", the computer shut down.
Immediately, RED LIGHT FLOODED THE ENTIRE HOSPITAL as there was a loud blaring noise buzzing intermittently with the red light.
"Warning," a voice stated calmly over the intercom, obviously pre-recorded, "Warning. Subject in basement 01 has been released."
The same words began to echo over and over again as the blaring continued.
Behind them there was a terrible crash, as the entire floor blasted open, a wide black hand, a shadow, stretching up and outwards. Immediately it grabbed a hold of Kostya, and began to squeeze. A shrill, low shrieking noise echoed from below, deafening out everything else. VERSUS PETER PAN VERSUS PETER PAN:- The (arm) of Peter Pan has 50HP. You take -5 auto damage every time you attack it. Kostya is imprisoned so he cannot attack, but he takes damage equal to half the damage you did to Peter Pan. - If you do not free him within ??? time, Kostya will be taken! - This battle now applies to ANYONE AT THE HOSPITAL

HOSPITAL
If there were any other documents, there were interrupted by a monstrous shadowy shape that tore through the entire reception area like paper. It paused for a second and a single eye, larger than the reception desk, bloodshot and red, turned to stare at Lex.
Then, slowly, it closed again, as the shadow continued to move upwards.

"Oh, paperclips!" What a discovery! Mimsy collected all of them, arranged them according to the visible spectrum of light around one edge of the folder, and had just finished up by the time Shiloh held the picture out to her.
It was very difficult to keep up her cheerful demeanor. It faltered as she stared at the picture with a strangled um, but she managed to (mostly) get it back again before she opened her mouth to speak.
"This hasn't happened, unless we have fallen into a rift in the space-time continuum." Obviously. "Would you like to take a trip to the beach, Shiloh? I do hope that Lucky will be awake soon!"
Excited at the implication, she nudged Robert and held the photo up for a moment.
"Look! Lucky is fine after all!"

"Very." He replied to Rin. "But we ain't got much else to go on."
So Otto headed down to the dorm rooms. "Keys, Shyloh." Pick a door, any door.

Hospital
Kostya's voice floated over the sound of the mouse click, but it seemed to echo all the same. Finite, important, and Peyton grit her teeth in imminent dread for the half second of silence that stretched before everything was bathed in red light and they were deafened by a blaring alarm. '********!"
<Stop. ********. hitting. buttons!>
Kostya had dashed for the door, and Peyton was grabbed and flung in that direction before she could even think to respond. She crashed into the wall beside the door, bouncing off, and screamed as something came bursting through the floor and grabbed the Death hunter, squeezing him. "<********>!" She snarled it, with feeling, as she summoned Warrick's other half again.
"Hang on, Kon!" She lunged, small fist cocked back and body twisted, and when she struck, she struck with everything she had. Sinking spikes in with enough force to bruise her own knuckles.

HospitalThe alarms and the crashing told Jordan that his hunch had been wrong. He wasn't sure if he was disappointed or relieved. He bolted out of the room in time to see the shadow hand grab Kostya. This, at least, was a fairly straightforward problem. Jordan summoned Ferros as he moved, and brought the hammer crashing down hard on the shadowy arm. HP: 55/60 Dmg: 17 Charge: 1/3 Arm HP: 22 Damage to Kostya: 8

s**t. He tucked into a ball and rolled away from the ensuing shrapnel that was being thrown every which way, gritting his teeth and standing up to face... a giant arm? Yeah, a giant shadow of an arm that was squeezing another Lifer. Kostya? He didn't know the man well, but the fact that he was of the same division was enough to drive him into some sort of action.
The eye that appeared for a few moments jarred him, paralyzing him momentarily on the ground floor. What the hell was this thing? He'd never read about a shadowy hand monster with a single red eye before.
<< Whelp, get moving! >>
< Yeah, yeah. >
Moving Lex went, climbing the flight of stairs to view more Hunters. So he hadn't been alone. "The hell is happening?" He called to them.

[Dorms]The nudge caught him off guard, and he looked down at the picture for a moment, frowning in worry. She'd just said the picture hadn't actually occurred, but - "If he's fine, then this happened. Did this happen, or not?" It made no sense to see the four of them on the beach, waiting for ice cream, just.. devoid of any real emotion. He pulled away from the picture, because it hurt to look at it. "If it's a trick, then ignore it." Someone was in serious business mode today. "I don't wanna stay here any longer than we gotta, just figure out a way to blow this place up or whatever and let's go." That was the goal, right? Of course it was.

"If that was her office, she's here somewhere, probably. But you're right, it all seems very planted," he agreed, thinking to the picture. That definitely had never happened. "Mimsy, Robert," he called up to them, "We're going to try opening these doors, and can probably use all the help we can get... Just in case what's on the other side isn't friendly." He glanced at Otto, and Rin, and took a big breath before finding the key for the door nearest to the stair. Hoping desperately that it was at least human on the other side, he unlocked it.His other hand held tightly onto a summoned Haruko. "Here goes..."

"What's- what's taking them so long?" Mark had used his time surprisingly wisely, doing best with the bandages. His vision seemed to have recovered enough that he was able to type out a series of prompts onto his laptop before slowly placing the laptop on the ground.
The effort was tremendous, but he managed to shift his one good leg to the side, then stared at the damaged one, eyes disfocusing. A thick piece of glowing red shrapnel was sticking right through his leg. It was obvious what he was thinking, but he didn't want to act on it, quite yet. Time was ticking down, and with a small whimper, he wrapped as many bandages as he could around both sides of the damage, cutting blood pressure, and pulled.
It was disgusting, the sound was disgusting, blood spurting all directions, and he bit into his coat as he resisted the urge to vomit and pass out at the same time. A second, and then a third effort and finally he was able to remove the piece, throwing it to the ground beside him. Blood was pouring freely now, and he whimpered, hands, entire body shaking as he fought to wrap as many bandages as provided around the wound. His hands pressed the gap closed, as well as he could, and he shook, quivered, and looked delirious.
"Someone," he looked around and took a deep breath, "Someone help me up. We gotta warn the others. They're out of time." OOC Anyone at the lighthouse! If nobody is around, Mark will make the trek on his own

Right Building
Deryk could see that he was at a fortress but he wasn't sure where this was exactly. He could still hear some shots fired. biting his lip, he went on into the right building to see what was there. He managed to spot Otto and a few others briefly before a red light had suddenly flooded the area.
"..Problematic."
There was now a big shadow in the area, and one of their own had been grabbed.
"Aaaah!!"

While the paperclips were rather fantastical, rearranging them unfortunately did not do much.
