graveyard part 3

[gamehead]

hunter's game the graveyard You wake up in an unfamiliar cabin. At first, it almost seems like you're in an entirely different place and that everything had been just a dream. The interior of the cabin looks nothing like the run-down, old-timey shacks that you had been living in before. Everything in here is sleek and modern, from the enormous flat-screen TV mounted on the wall to the fridge and mini-bars stocked with all your favorite foods. There aren't any individual rooms in here, just a common area large enough to house everyone comfortably, no matter how many more people join you...and there will be plenty more people joining you before the week is over. Because if you look outside the window, it quickly becomes clear that not only are you still in Prayer's Pass, but that you are no longer among the realm of the living. Judging from the tombstones directly outside, you're now in what had been the abandoned broken-down cabin in the graveyard. The cabin's not all that changed; the world outside has gone completely grey and everything you see appears to be faded and blurry. The only things that remain sharp and in color are what's inside the cabin, including your fellow ghosts. Occasionally, people who are still alive may enter, but it's clear that what they're seeing is completely different from what you're seeing. The door's unlocked; however, a mysterious force prevents you from stepping beyond the threshold, no matter how hard you may try. After all, this cabin is a cage for the dead - a gilded one, perhaps, but a cage nonetheless. On the flat-screen TV plays everything that is currently happening in the town. It will shut off once night starts...and something else will appear instead.

It was always going to come down to this. [England's voice is toneless and empty.] I was a fool to ever believe otherwise.

[terryplz]

You aren't a fool for hoping for the best England. It's all we have in a time like this.

[tsunneverset]

[He laughs bitterly.]

Except I wasn't really hoping for the best, was I? Not if I want the hunters to win, at any rate. I was just being selfish. I can't blame Ada for killing him, but...[But he's obviously furious and upset anyway.]

[terryplz]

I don't know much about you countries yet, but I can tell you're linked closely to him. There's nothing wrong with being selfish over the ones you care for.

[This is Bruce trying to cheer someone up and yeah he isn't great at it as one can see.]

[tsunneverset]

[It's cool Bruce, England isn't great at being cheered up in the first place] Not by choice, that's for sure. And I don't care about him at all.

[He shudders a little as he listens to what is undoubtedly the sound of America bleeding out. He can't tell if his blindness is a blessing or a curse; at least he doesn't have to watch America die slowly onscreen, but surely the sight was still far better than the things he's imagining now.]

...they could have at least had the decency to make it quick.

I don't believe Ada shot to draw it out. You can't see the screen, but he was shot point black in the chest. The chances of a non-instantaneous death are incredibly low, nearly impossible unless she was aware of vital areas and intentionally missed them. It may very well be a design flaw of Critter's own making. He could be shot in the head and would probably not die right away.
