Week 5

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Five deaths in one week, and almost half of the guests have died now. The Narrator is now claiming that the man who's trying to save all the guests is a cold-hearted killer, and he doesn't seem to be lying about this. But on the other hand, that doesn't explain why he continues to do any of this, or if he's even an entirely good guy here.

Whether you like it or not, tension is becoming unusually high in this hotel now.

But hey, at least you get a nice new floor to tide you over.

13 guests remain]

After half of us have already died. It really took that long.

[keyofimagination]

I didn't want to immediately alert my benefactor to my plans. I've tried my best to covertly plot out an escape but it's clear that that's not an option anymore.

[theduck]

Well, if you’re gonna make us bust out of here with guns blazing, I sure hope you’re at least going to provide the guns.

[he’s still Skeptical at best but a loud and violent escape sounds great right about now, so...]

[keyofimagination]

Thankfully for you, I am willing to provide the guns. The only firearm I have on me is the... one I have, but I can look around to see what our options are.

[theduck]

Well, it’s better than having no guns.

[this is. acceptable. but he’s on thin ice.]

But I don’t see how you plan on finding other ‘options’ for us when we’ve already searched the place top to bottom for any way to get out of here.

[keyofimagination]

I already know how to get out of the hotel. But the reason why I'm not simply opening the door for everyone is that the outside is possibly more dangerous than this hotel.

[theduck]

More dangerous? Five people died last week! What’s out there that could possibly be more dangerous that a— a murder hotel?!

[keyofimagination]

...

You'll know what I mean when we get to it.

[theduck]

Are you sure we can’t just arm ourselves with kitchen knives?

[keyofimagination]

If you just want to use kitchen knives, I will happily provide.

[theduck]

And when exactly are you planning on leading us out of here, huh? How much time do we have to get ready for this?

[keyofimagination]

... If nothing goes wrong, about a week.

[nocasetoobig]

That doesn't really give us any way to prepare for it, you know.

[keyofimagination]

I'm planning on properly assessing the danger soon. I don't want tell everyone what to expect if I find a way to take care of it.

[nocasetoobig]

And what if you're wrong? What if you think you can, but what if you need our help?

[keyofimagination]

I wouldn't want to burden anyone if I do run across any issues.

[nocasetoobig]

[HUFF and he'll take a step forward with a POINT]

If you want us to trust you, then you need to trust us! This isn't one way, Mister Narrator! If you want us to believe you honestly want to help, then stop fooling around for once!

[keyofimagination]

... I trust you fine.

But I simply don't want to make your escape harder than it already is.

[nocasetoobig]

Not knowing what we're facing doesn't make things easier!

[keyofimagination]

And I am going to assess the level of danger soon. Then we'll know exactly what we're facing.

[nocasetoobig]

And then will you tell us?

[keyofimagination]

Of course I will.

[God, Chip.]

dun dun dun

[candlelightsflicker]

No need. You'll be facing me.

[comes a dark voice from the back of the room, obscured in shadow.]

[keyofimagination]

[Rod tenses at the voice.]

What are you doing here?

[nocasetoobig]
