[ Well. You're in an elevator now. A gross, rusty elevator.

There are buttons on the panel in front of you, all team-coloured and numbered. Above the door are two panels, one indicating what floor you are on, and the other indicating what floor every other team is on.

The voice comes in through the intercom again: ]

Subject has a tendency to subconsciously cast spells in her sleep. This ranges from mildly inconvenient to wildly disastrous, due to the state of altered reality it creates.

The most recent incident involved a scenario wherein several of her classmates, including myself, were on their way to an unspecified business meeting. However, the building was dilapidated and upon entering the elevators we found they did not function as they should. We were, then, told by malicious spirits haunting the building that the only way out was to reach the top and make it to the meeting, by using the control panels to try to drop the other elevators into the boiler room. Where they would, ah, boil.

As you can tell, this is patently ridiculous. Dreams usually are. She has been reading too many horror stories and dramas, I suppose.

The incident previous to that involved --

[ugh.]

Are there any teams you would rather not target?

Gulgallana and... Ratatoskr. If that's okay.

I am just a cat though, so your opinions outweigh mine.

No, I want to take your opinions into account. You have as much stake in this as I do.

Would you rather use all three to send other teams down, or only two?

Only two. We can have mercy. There is no reason to be against all teams.

Alright. Are you amenable to changing that strategy later if we find ourselves doing poorly?

Everything blurs for a second as your elevator clunks its way upwards.

The roof of your elevator slides open, revealing an empty white void...

AND A SKELETON POPS OUT.

THERE IS NOW A SKELETON IN YOUR ELEVATOR. SPOOPY.

[ Candy doesn't look scared. She doesn't.

She's just slightly frozen. It's kind of slightly reminding her of that time she could see her own bones. ]

[she flinches a bit as it suddenly appears, but calms down enough to put a hand on the younger girl's back]

It's alright. It won't hurt us.

I know.

[ She's calm. She's fine.

It turns out she isn't that great at dealing with jump scares. ]

There was a game just like this earlier-- just. Not in a small space.

Mm, you mean the one where we were in cages, hung above a fire? The set up in that was similar.

Everything blurs for a second as your elevator clunks downwards.

Nothing seems to have happened, but for some reason despite your floor indicator saying you are on the 6th floor, the panel that lists all the teams says you are on the 17th...

It will be alright.

- One point to raise themselves
- One point to lower Amalthea
- One point to lower Ometotchtli
- One point to lower Alectryon

Your elevator's cable snaps, and you begin plummeting wildly.

It grows hotter and hotter and hotter and when it's unbearable and searing and just when you're sure you're about to die, just from the how hard the impact is going to be if not how hot it must be down there --

You hear a train whistle.
