Session 5

From Deadhaus

[20:39] <@uhrwerk> James, Tanya, care to tell everyone where we left off last session?
[20:39] <Cherice> plox. I'm kinda braindead.
[20:40] <James_Sessenwick> Fucking demonic nurses!
[20:40] <Tanya_Greene> We were chased by SYRINGE SPIDERS and ZOMBIE SPLICERS!@
[20:40] <Tanya_Greene> To a room, where there wasn't anything bad happening.
[20:40] <Tanya_Greene> Unless you count Cherice existing.
[20:40] <Cherice> OI.
[20:40] <Cherice> >:<
[20:40] <Tanya_Greene> Also, Gordon Freeman's crowbar made an appearanace.
[20:41] <James_Sessenwick> Welcome back.
[20:42] <Miles> I was out of state :p
[20:43] <@uhrwerk> So yeah... These two teenagers come bursting into the room, panicked and sweating. Oh, and one of them is holding a crowbar.
[20:44] <Tanya_Greene> Actually both of us.
[20:44] <Tanya_Greene> But we put them away!
[20:45] <James_Sessenwick> Indeed we did.
[20:48] <@uhrwerk> So James and Tanya are in the room, freaked out. They also just happened to interrupt Chastity as she was tending to Cherice
[20:49] <Cherice> (fourth wall up.)
[20:49] <Cherice> "... o_o;"
[20:49] <Tanya_Greene> "O_o!"
[20:49] <Cherice> "Uh... I think you got the wrong room...?"
[20:49] <@uhrwerk> (And Miles? Well, we'll get to him... >:3 )
[20:50] <James_Sessenwick> "O_o. No. This is very much the right room." James looks over his shoulder at the door.
[20:50] <Tanya_Greene> "Sorry, but... we're... Um... running from..." Tanya stammers.
[20:50] <Cherice> "...from?"
[20:51] <Cherice> She blinks up at the nice nurse-lady as if asking her if she's actually conscious or not.
[20:51] <Chastity_Bell> If looks could kill... well, the pair would get at least blisters from the scalding glare the nurse gave them for bursting in like that. "Yes, do go on. From what?"
[20:52] <James_Sessenwick> "There's... look, this is going to sound crazy, there's no logical explanation..." James says, leaning against one of the walls.
[20:53] <Tanya_Greene> Tanya backs away from Chastity. Oh crap, the nurse lady was almost as scary as the spiders. >_<
[20:53] <James_Sessenwick> James just isn't very fond of nurses anymore, after that.
[20:55] <Cherice> Uh.... Cherice hasn't got nothin'.
[20:55] <Cherice> "Wait, someone's chasing you?"
[20:56] <Chastity_Bell> She finished a note she'd been writing with one harsh motion of the pen. "It sounds like you two have lost your way." Yes. From where the mental patients should be at.
[20:56] <Tanya_Greene> "Yes, there was a man in the cafeteria whom was... Ah!" Tanya tries to explain.
[20:56] <Cherice> "Want me to go outside and put the fear of God in 'em?"
[20:57] * Cherice cracks her knuckles.
[20:57] * Chastity_Bell just rolled her eyes slightly.
[20:58] <Tanya_Greene> "... I think I lost him... ^^; Sorry..." Tanya tries to peek outside and make sure there's no longer the hell-world of ash-filled burnt hallway and chittering syringe spiders.
[20:58] <James_Sessenwick> "...Yeah. Maybe we should go. Sorry about that..." James says, looking over Tanya's shoulder.
[20:58] <Cherice> "Well, where were you all headed?"
[20:59] <Cherice> "I can come with you just in case." She pokes at her head. "I think I'm mostly okay?"
[20:59] <Chastity_Bell> "I think I know. I can escort you all there." Freezing smile.
[20:59] <Cherice> C_C;l
[21:00] <Cherice> To hell with burly thugs in a bad neighborhood, that look could freeze a swamp in July.
[21:00] <Tanya_Greene> "Home, actually. I just wanted to... Uh, stop to get a bite to eat, I think... I'll leave now." Wibble at Chastity's rawrnurse.
[21:01] <James_Sessenwick> "...I was just leaving. The, um... The eighty-two doesn't always run, right? Gotta get back to the 'trose." James likewise creeps for the door.
[21:01] <Cherice> "Seriously, let us come along. This hospital ain't in a good part of town."
[21:01] <Cherice> (*tag along, erk.)
[21:02] <Cherice> "If we run into your friend, point him out and I'll scare the shit out of him." <3
[21:02] <Tanya_Greene> "No, it most certainly is not..." ^^;
[21:04] <Chastity_Bell> ...In the meanwhile, the nurse decided to make a call to see if any doctors were missing mental patients. Juuuust in case.
[21:06] <@uhrwerk> In the meantime, Miles is still covered in ash and zombie juices, slumped up against the wall of the abandoned hospital lobby. A graffiti reading "Gott mit uns." is scrawled on the wall above his head
[21:09] <Miles> Mile's isn't feeling very good, perhaps it's the big chug he had for dinnner or the day old breakfast burrito he had for lunch, or maybe the flesh eating corpse. He held his head in his hands, "Fuck, fuck fuck."
[21:12] <@uhrwerk> A distant singing, as if a mother comforting a child, cuts through the dust-choked lobby. It seems to be coming from a set of windowless double-doors set where the nurse's station should be.
[21:14] <Miles> He stood up quietly and started approaching the doors. "Anyone there? Hello?"
[21:16] <@uhrwerk> For an answer, Miles just hears a soft skittering against the door
[21:16] <Miles> Miles breaks the next horror movie rule and opens the door.
[21:18] <@uhrwerk> A long hallway --longer than should be possible, in fact-- stretches away into darkness. Several paces away from the door, the hallway is choked off with ichor-pumping rubber tubes. Tubes studded with dripping, rusted syringes.
[21:19] <@uhrwerk> In the forest of needle-studded surgical tubing, the vague forms of wheelchairs and gurneys are just visible.
[21:20] <Miles> Alright, Miles wasn't the brightest bulb but momma didn't raise no fools. He stood back and closed the doors again, maybe some other time.
[21:21] <Cherice> (*sputters*)
[21:21] <@uhrwerk> A woman whispers in his right ear, "Won't you come up to my parlor, little fly?"
[21:24] <Miles> Somewhere in the back of the mind he heard it. 'Do it faggot'
[21:28] <Miles> Miles entered slowly, just one foot after another, just enough to peak around if it seemed to death trap he could run screaming either way.
[21:28] <@uhrwerk> From behind him, a woman's laugh and sound of tube-vines slithering over the doorway
[21:29] <Miles> "SON OF A BITCH!"
[21:31] <@uhrwerk> In a slightly happier (or at least more normal) place, James finally got the last bit of zombie nurse out of his hoodie
[21:32] <Cherice> "...what the fuck is that?" Cherice is peering at the gunk in said hoodie. o_o;;
[21:34] * Chastity_Bell seemed to be ignoring them in favour of phonecalltiems.
[21:34] <@uhrwerk> Oddly enough, the bed count in the psych ward seemed to check out.
[21:36] <Chastity_Bell> Hmm. Oh well. She ended the call with a sigh, tapping the pen against her lips.
[21:36] <James_Sessenwick> "...What was chasing me." He says, wiping off the remaining gunk and tossing it in one of those biohazardous labeled trashcans.
[21:36] <Cherice> "Care to explain?"
[21:37] <Cherice> Apparently she isn't the only one who's had weird shit happen to her tonight.
[21:37] <Tanya_Greene> "He and I were both being chased by... By something, but from different directions."
[21:37] <Cherice> O_o?
[21:37] <Tanya_Greene> "We just met up right before going into that room, serious!"
[21:40] <James_Sessenwick> "Look, I know I sound insane, but I'm not. I was chased here by... something that looks like a nurse, but clearly wasn't."
[21:40] <Tanya_Greene> "Was it bleeding from the eyes?" Tanya asks, in a whisper.
[21:40] <Cherice> "Ooookay. I'm.. confused." Cajun lady go headscritch. x_x;
[21:41] <Chastity_Bell> "..." Scribble a note.
[21:45] <James_Sessenwick> "I'm not doing much better... I think I need to go." He says, eyes flickering over at Chastity for a moment.
[21:46] <Cherice> "Well, I guess I'll go with you. I need to get my gear from upstairs anyway."
[21:49] <Tanya_Greene> "Where are you guys going?"
[21:49] <Chastity_Bell> She rubbed at her eyes for a moment, sticking the pen into the front pocket of her uniform. "And I better make sure you don't lose your way again. Bursting into rooms like that could cause accidents."
[21:52] <James_Sessenwick> "I'm heading upstairs..." He says with a sigh. "Then I suppose just down to the bus."
[21:52] <@uhrwerk> Miles, on the other hand, isn't going anywhere. Not with the needle-studded "vines" in his way, that is.
[21:56] <Miles> "Fuck." Miles stood searching amongst the vines for some way out or at least forward.
[21:58] <@uhrwerk> The vines seems to spread out, allowing him passage deeper into the forest... or attempting to embrace him. Miles can't be sure.
[22:01] <Miles> Miles slips through the vines, cursing silently. "Damn rash was better than this."
[22:02] <@uhrwerk> Miles' hip brushes against a wheelchair, sending it clattering against the wall. Only, was that a bloodbag GROWING out of the back of the chair?
[22:02] <Miles> Miles stares at it eyes wide and slowly reached out to touch it.
[22:03] <@uhrwerk> The pack bursts and rots under his touch.
[22:04] <Miles> Miles yelps and pulls back his hand shaking off the tainted blood. "Goddamn it!"
[22:04] <@uhrwerk> The remaining blood sizzles painlessly off his fingers in a plume of oily smoke
[22:07] <Miles> "You think this is fucking funny? If this is god fucking Candid Camera shit I'm going shove your props up your ass!"
[22:08] <@uhrwerk> Doctor Ashton comes striding down the hallway. "You! You... shouldn't be here. This place is not for... you. Not yet. You're not... ready yet." He reached out for Miles, and the vines begin to constrict aroung his arms, legs, chest... and neck. The last thing he sees before he fades to black is Doctor Aston's too-bright eyes and wolfish smile.
[22:09] <Miles> Miles gives something of a pitiful. "Fuck." as the he's engulfed by terrible bio-medical vines.
[22:11] <@uhrwerk> (Could I get (Wits+Composure) from everyone else? You'll need to use real dice or a diceroller, seeing as how Plentimon is MIA. I trust you to be fair.)
[22:12] <Tanya_Greene> ((I'll c&p from wizards.))
[22:12] <Chastity_Bell> (using voidstate. )
[22:12] <Tanya_Greene> ((Oh, crap, I can't find it.))
[22:13] <Cherice> (1 sux.)
[22:13] <Miles> (Alek rolls 5 dice to Awareness 3 successes
[22:13] <Miles> 8,8,7,5,8)
[22:13] <Chastity_Bell> (...what's the TN again? 8? x.x )
[22:13] <Tanya_Greene> ((Roll(5d10)+0:
[22:13] <Tanya_Greene> 3,2,7,2,6, 0.))
[22:14] <@uhrwerk> (Kiyo: Yuss)
[22:14] <Chastity_Bell> (9 9 1 3 6 9 vs TN 8 = 3 successes)
[22:15] <Tanya_Greene> ((I fail at not freaking out. ;_; ))
[22:15] <@uhrwerk> Chastity, Miles? You guys hear a wet thud and a gasping sound coming from the cafeteria down the hall.
[22:16] <@uhrwerk> James, rather
[22:18] <Chastity_Bell> Sigh. "This better not be that fat cafeteria lady passing out on duty again." Chastity headed out, high heels clicking against the floor sharply.
[22:19] <James_Sessenwick> "...It's never the cafeteria lady." It seems James' sense of morbidity was getting to him again, following Chastity out the door. He'd give a frightened gaze towards the other two as he departed.
[22:19] <@uhrwerk> Instead, it's the man you treated for a "social rash" not just a few hours ago. Only, he looks to be in bad shape... Either he's been burned, or he's covered with dried blood and soot. Also, needle trackmarks cover all his exposed skin, and a length of surgical tubing has been tired around his neck and pinned in place with dirty syringe needles.
[22:20] <Tanya_Greene> Tanya follows the others, and peeks over Jame's shoulder at the man tied covered in... Stuff. She gasps.
[22:20] <Miles> "Fuck."
[22:21] <Cherice> "What the...?!"
[22:21] <@uhrwerk> (BB, you get a bonus XP)
[22:21] <Tanya_Greene> "Why is it always syringes in this place?!"
[22:21] <James_Sessenwick> "...Fuck this crazy ass hospital. Nurses, and fire... and now this? Fuck this. Fuck. This." James backs back towards Cherice and Tanya.
[22:22] <Tanya_Greene> Tanya continues to back up to stay behind James.
[22:22] <Chastity_Bell> Blink. Stare. Make another exciting note in her papers! Then treat the poor fool.
[22:22] <Chastity_Bell> Lalala, nothing out of the ordinary here. Twitch.
[22:22] <Cherice> o_o;;
[22:23] <Tanya_Greene> "M-maybe the spiders caught him..." Tanya whispers, voice quivering.
[22:23] <@uhrwerk> (Int + Medicine to examine him, Kiyo)
[22:24] <Chastity_Bell> (is this first aidy or not? ; )
[22:24] <@uhrwerk> (It is. But it's also to determine the extent of his injuries)
[22:25] <Chastity_Bell> (6 7 10 6 6 4 10 vs TN 8 = 2 successes)
[22:25] <Chastity_Bell> (...do I reroll tens or is that some other game? ;; )
[22:26] <@uhrwerk> (Yeah. nWoD does 10-again. :) )
[22:26] <Chastity_Bell> (3 9 vs TN 8 = 1 success)
[22:29] <@uhrwerk> The lacerations don't look immediately threatening -- you could probably just disinfect them and leave them at that. However, his limbs appear to have ligation marks... Like someone strung him up with a hose? Odd. Then there's the matter of the tube choking him to death...
[22:33] <Chastity_Bell> Nurse to the rescue, as opposed to the general policy of kill-nurses that this place seemed to have. She tried to get rid of the tube first, the other injuries could wait.
[22:34] <@uhrwerk> (Dex + Medicine. First Aid specialty, if you have it.)
[22:35] <Chastity_Bell> (6 5 4 5 2 8 vs TN 8 = 1 success)
[22:36] <Chastity_Bell> (damn, I was looking to botch. :3 )
[22:36] <@uhrwerk> You rip the tube away, none too gently. The needles are pulled free with small metallic ticking sounds.
[22:37] * Cherice cringes.
[22:40] * James_Sessenwick has an involuntary eye-twitch.
[22:40] <Chastity_Bell> Perhaps he'd complain about the rough treatment later, but that was the least of her concerns right now. "Are you going to help me drag him to a room for more treatment, or will you just gawk?" This to all the others.
[22:41] <Cherice> "Oh! Uh..." Cherice kneels down to give scary!nurse a hand.
[22:43] <James_Sessenwick> James grabs him by the other arm and lifts. And he'd just cleaned this coat, too. ;_;
[22:44] <Tanya_Greene> "Um... Sure..." ._.
[22:44] <Tanya_Greene> Tanya just wanted out of this place already.
[22:48] <Miles> "...Fuck."
[22:48] <Chastity_Bell> She just gave a slight huff, leading the way to a more suitable place for nursing business, popping a pill for an assumed headache on the way.
[22:50] <Cherice> Despite herself, Cherice glances about the hallways in a quasi-nervous kind of way. >_> <_< ._.
[22:50] <@uhrwerk> (IT looks like all the rooms are taken, except for Room 104)
[22:51] <Cherice> "For a place so quiet it sure as hell's full up."
[22:51] <Chastity_Bell> Room 104 it is.
[22:51] <Cherice> Or maybe that was just the second floor, whatever.
[22:51] <Cherice> "I'll get the door."
[22:52] <Tanya_Greene> ((Is the room number on the door?))
[22:53] <@uhrwerk> ((Yes))
[22:53] <Tanya_Greene> "Room 104?!" Tanya looks abjectly terrified at the idea of entering room 104 again.
[22:54] <Tanya_Greene> Then again, one has to wonder just how abjectly terrified one can look without drawing suspicion. After all, nobody else had seen half as much of room 104 as she had, but it was not a pleasant place.
[22:54] <Cherice> "Huh?" Cherice blinks at the younger girl over one shoulder, one hand already reaching for the door to push it open. "What's the matter?"
[22:54] <Tanya_Greene> "It's just that... Uh, I was walking by this room earlier when I was being chased, and I saw people walk out who weren't in there before."
[22:55] <Tanya_Greene> "Yeah, it's weird, just... Uh, just forget about it."
[22:56] <Tanya_Greene> "You mind if I stand outside?" >>
[22:56] <Cherice> "Well, there's no one in here now, see?" Point.
[22:56] <Cherice> "Suit yourself. I'm just catching the door."
[22:56] <Tanya_Greene> "Alright. I'll just wait here then." Tanya stands by the wall outside the door, and waits for everyone else to go inside.
[22:57] <Cherice> (*shoos the cat off her keyboard* x.x;;;;)
[22:57] * Chastity_Bell didn't stop to argue about it and headed in.
[22:58] <@uhrwerk> The Garfield poster smiles down at Miles like a orange striped Buddha as Chastity works to clean him up
[22:59] <Miles> Miles reached an arm up to touch the divinity as it preached the seven mantras of the heavens.
[22:59] <Tanya_Greene> While everyone else is inside, Tanya unslings her backpack, and places it against the wall. Morbidly curious what was going on inside room 104, she retrieves her laptop, and, nestling it in her left arm, boots it up with her right.
[23:00] <Tanya_Greene> Perhaps that creepy .jpg video feed of Mr. Garfield was still on the fileserver.
[23:01] <@uhrwerk> Tanya? I don't know how to put this, but you see Miles, bloody and writhing, caught in a web of vines.
[23:02] <Tanya_Greene> ((Did James tell me his name?))
[23:02] <Chastity_Bell> "Be still." Cleancleanclean, treat treat treat. She sounded a little detached.
[23:02] <Tanya_Greene> ((S'been awhile...))
[23:03] <James_Sessenwick> (I... don't... think so?)
[23:03] <Tanya_Greene> ((Better idea...)) If the door isn't locked, Tanya geeenntly slides it open to peek inside and see if Miles is truly tangled in a web of killer syringe vines.
[23:04] <Tanya_Greene> Anyone looking at the door would see eyes the size of dishplates.
[23:04] <@uhrwerk> Miles is in discomfort, sure. But that's more from the disinfectant Chastity is applying to his wounds than from anything unearthly
[23:05] <Tanya_Greene> She looks back down at her laptop to confirm if he's *still* looking that way through the camera.
[23:06] <@uhrwerk> He does. And small hummingbirds made of needles and forecips dart in to lap at his wounds
[23:06] <Tanya_Greene> ... "Psst, hey!" Tanya tries to whisper to James. Hopefully, hopefully she wasn't the only one who could see this. If she was, well...
[23:08] * Cherice glances over to see Tanya peeking in the doorway. "...?"
[23:08] <@uhrwerk> 0.
[23:09] <Tanya_Greene> Tanya pulls her head back, as if to say "C'mere."
[23:10] <James_Sessenwick> He would nod at that, and head over to stand next to Tanya. Here comes the mindfuck. Wooh.
[23:10] <Tanya_Greene> Tanya shows him her laptop screen. "He look okay to you?" She looks at James with a "What the fuck is happening?!??!" face.
[23:11] <@uhrwerk> The camera pans slowly up the back of Tanya's laptop and onto James' face, which is wearing a shocked expression. He opens his mouth to speak, and the shot cuts to black, then to the end credits.
