WEEK 3



[The week begins as last week began. But there's is a great difference-murder. It has happened. Blood has been drawn; it cannot be undone. The Game has made itself known. The Game is paramount. The Game simply is.

As morning dawns, those who were not present with the DEAD lock will find that the doors that were locked are now gone-and a whole new area has finally opened up to them. They will also find that they remember something they had not been able to recall beforehand. The question is, was it worth it?

And-is it you, or is the ship getting...colder as the hours go by? No, it's not just you. By the end of Sunday, the ship has started to dip into freezing temperatures. It might be difficult for people to bundle up-unless you're Brain, who will find his closet inundated with winter clothing that fit him perfectly.

Yup. This is going to be a long week, as if last week wasn't bad enough.



There are currently 16 strangers in this place.]

Kaito!

[She stands hurriedly and runs after him.]

[unpossibilities]

[It was a mistake--it was a mistake to try to open this when there were people around, he thought it might help in the company of friends, it was a mistake to...

Then he hears that voice.

He freezes.]

...Y--Yeah...?

[exequte]

[She slows as she comes up towards him, then hesitantly reaches out to take his hand, looking up into his eyes searching.]

[unpossibilities]

[Kaito is silent. He takes her hand, however. And he looks down.

Finally, he speaks.]

Sorry.

[exequte]

Don't worry, I'm okay.

...


Are you?

[unpossibilities]

...

I forgot someone. I remembered now.

[He sighs. Then motions for her to follow, this time walking.]

I'll---I'll tell you in my room. No one will come in there, since, y'know...

[John's dead, and all.]

[exequte]

There... seems like there's a lot of that. Forgetting people, I mean.

[She colors just a little, delicately, at his suggestion to go back to his room, where nobody else would now be able to interrupt them, but the situation seems too serious to tease him about that. So instead she just nods.]

Okay. Let's go, then.
