graveyard part 3

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 matters because I totally said it matters! That should mean something if you really don't care about sides.

And there's stuff we can do, we can send clues and try to help. It's not the same as playing, but we're only powerless if we want to be powerless.

Since when do you just give up?

[She goes stiff at that. It's funny how being dead breaks her more then being killed does. But that...that is just as effective as a slap in the face. Probably more so.]

[A moment later, she no longer looks broken.]


I don't.

[Poland can't help the smile that cracks on his face when Ukraine says that, he stands up straight again.]

That's right. You don't.

[And a moment later Poland turns away flapping his arm, the seriousness of his tone replaced with his usual flippancy. He drops the Ukrainian.]

Which is like good because you basically stole the lyrics from my song anyways so it'd be super embarrassing for me if you didn't keep embodying them or whatever and I'd like never forgive you for embarrassing me.

... [He'll turn his head back to face her, giving her a little wink.]
