CALHOUN HOUR - SURVIVOR
At the crack of dawn, presumably, Calhoun gathers everyone in the first floor warehouse to make an announcement. "That's right, it's time for another of my special events!" He seems pretty pleased with himself. "I noticed you lazy, fat test subjects really let yourselves go last round! It's like I don't feed you here or something." "Well, I'm worried about your health, always lazing about and not getting proper exercise. So, I decided to be the change I want to see in the world, and so we're going to do something a littttttttllllllle different this time." "To stop you guys from getting soft from all the fun you're having here, it's time for a little workout." From one of the doors Calhoun never lets anyone go through there's a loud, metallic banging sound repeating, as if something is trying to get out. Calhoun does not seem troubled at all by this. In fact, he seems pretty excited. "The rules are simple, everyone's getting sixty coins to use as they see fit. You'll notice the vending machines on both warehouse floors. Anyone who isn't caught will even get a memory back." But what does that mean? "So go on, survive for 23 hours, I'll even give you a five minute head start. Good luck!" And with that he scurries off. Should people hang around they'll get to witness that same door open five minutes later. From the door comes several figures, human in shape but something is very, very wrong. They seem to be robotic, skeletal humans. At one point they must have had some synthetic skin over them but most of it seems to be melting or ripped off. They don't move very fast, mostly they shamble about until they focus on a target. Better hope it's not you! |

Nothing's stopping him from getting a toy piano from the shop. [ But flipping the table upside down then, already grabbing one of the legs. ] Keep an eye on the door.
[ Since breaking off a leg might be loud enough to attract something, so HERE WE GOOOOOO ]

[she rolls her eyes but dutifully takes watch; it seems clear as far as she can see--which isn't all that far before there's a corner, to be honest--but probably best to be quick about it]

[ Of course, the noise of snapping two off is more than enough to attract a robot zombie. Here comes on limping its way down the hall. It'll start to quickly make its way towards them without warning when it makes it halfway. ]
Hope you're good at baseball.
[ And also good at catch because Jake throws a table leg at her. He doesn't know how to pass things properly. ]
no subject
[she fumbles the leg but doesn't drop it, getting a decent grip just in time for the thing to get into range. rather than run--since there isn't really anywhere to go--she swings at the thing's midsection, hoping to knock its arms out of whack]
