On the 25th, Lucetians are ushered in to join an already growing army to repel the Cultists.

On the 26th, strange symptoms are reported. The first Runners appear and by nightfall, the hospital is lost.

On the 27th, the cultist horde is completely lost to the virus. They send no more reinforcements.

On the 28th, the situation is grim and an evacuation is called. But the battle is not over.

Notes: There will be two NPC threads. One for Specialist Davis and another for Carol.

I promise to do everything I can to stay safe here.

[He whispers softly as he tries to pull away completely to stand on his own two feet, offering a light smile.]

Thank you, Mia. At least... at least I'll have some good news for Katara.

[Ah, but she isn't letting him go. Not completely. He still feels unsteady, so she'll keep an arm around his shoulders.]

She's worried about you, isn't she?

[Come on, Aang, let's find you somewhere to rest.]

[savedtheworld]

[He finds himself accepting her support without noticing as he talks to her.]

She is. She always is. She's written to me... every day. She's been sounding friendly, but she tells us to be safe, too. At least... I know things are okay back at Luceti. The experiment sounds... kinda fun, really.

[frost_jewel]

An experiment that sounds fun? Will wonders never cease. That's an extra reason for you to go back, hmm?

28

[savedtheworld]

[He loses himself in the wistful conversation.]

I... I guess so. There are ghosts that are harmless and it sounds like... they like to get candy and play jokes. And there's a maze and... big webs and everything. I... I wonder if I can still enjoy it.

28

[frost_jewel]

Ghosts? And you think that sounds fun? [It might not be as bad as those masks, though.]

Even if it is gone by the time you return, I am sure you'll find something else peaceful to do.

28

[savedtheworld]

Well, the way Katara described them... They're not trying to hurt anybody, it seems. They play jokes and look for candy instead.

Of course. I... I can be back in time for Halloween. Ikki's been looking forward to that so much. [He gives her a fond smile.] She's gonna dress up as a character named Little Red.

28

[frost_jewel]

Little red? Are you going to be Bigger Red?

[No one who reminds her so much of Ivan can be called "big" in her head. Not until said blond boy also outgrows her.]

28

[savedtheworld]

N-no, I'm going to be... [Robin. He put together the costume already.] I don't know yet.

28

[frost_jewel]

I'm sure it will be something great.

28

[savedtheworld]

Y-yeah. I bet it will be. Ikki probably will have lots of ideas.
