Hive rising

"I kick the entrance door down and run inside"
"I look around pleading for an elevator to be around"
"I see one and run towards hitting the down button"
We just need to get to the fourth with Zeroya and Aqua
"5...4...3...2...2...2!?"
DAMN It's stuck on the second floor!!

OOC: Nick, your elevators are weird. Why is the ground floor the 5th floor?

*looks at zeroya*Sadly i was a sporty nerd before all of this went to hell.I did marching band,got A's on tests, and loved to play video games and hang out with friends.All of them died everyone i really loved.I am never going to be sad that way again and i don't want anyone i hold important to me to die.So, i will do alll i can to protect you guys.

OCC: because...they had a party on the fifth floor and no one used the elevator to leave...you may now pick your jaw up off the ground!

"I look over to Gonzo"
Do you see any stairs there has to be some!
"I climb over a bunch of crammed up desks to find the staircase boarded, with a sign saying (Undr Construction, done Feb 5,13)"
ITS FREAKIN JULY!! OK...OK...im fine just think...think...
"I sit on the ground and close my eyes"
hmmm...

*looks at zeroya*don't you think the other two should be here by now?*slowly stands and stretches*I think im going to go look around i feel better right now so ill go see if i can find them you going to come with me or stay here?

Do you want me to carry you or do you want to stay here and wait for me to return?I promise i wont take that long.

"Can't see a single bleedin' thing aside from desks. It's too dark!"

I start touching the walls and squinting my eyes to look closer.

"Start feeling around for a damned lightswitch!"

"I stay seated on the ground as Gonzo feels around for a lightswitch"
"I lay my head back to feel something sharp hit my head"
OW...Damn it stupid switch...wait switch?
"I flick the switch making the lights turn on but they are very dim"
OK....maybe we can use the under construction staircase, what do you think?

"It'll be risky, but there's no other way."

I peel down the tape and take a long look.

"Are you SURE you wanna do this? Looks like it could fall with a single step..."

*walks toward the door and opens it after i walk across the parking lot**looks at the steps then yells*JAMES?ICY?

"Hears Aqua's voice and peaks around the corner"
Oh hi...Aqua I think we will need help...maybe if we run fast and jump have Aqua grab our hand...then we will be safe! OK? OK, lets go!
"Without them agreeing on the plan, I take a giant leap on the second step and launch towards Aqua"
AQUA!
"I reach my hand out as far as I can towards her"

*without missing a beat i quickly grab on to a pole and move myself as close as i can to the edge without falling**I grasp his sweaty finger and look at him with panic*Are you crazy?!*i wrap my foot around the pole as i notice he is slipping and i grap him with the other hand*Pulls him as much as i can and makes him grap the ledge im hanging off then i grab the pole once more and pulls him up with sweating beading down my face*Don't ever scare me like that again

"I laugh while sitting on the ground as Aqua breathed heavily"
It was according to plan, hahaha....
"I peeked around the corner towards Gonzo"
Ok...your turn dude,but Be fast this thing is loose!
"Grabs onto the pole Aqua did and reach my hand out"

"Ah... Alright! One, two..."

But as I set foot on the step, the rest of the steps fall apart.

"Aaaah! Shi-" I mange to grab hold of a pipe on the side just nearly, as I look down to my possible death.

"Heheh... Crap. I guess I'll have to go another way. I'll meet you guys on the scaffolding!"

*hears zeroya talk to himself*calm down your going to be alright*looks at icy*Maybe this is a crazy idea but it might work.What if i lock arms with you and one of us holds on to the pole while the other goes down into the stairway and trys to grab for james.I don't think zeroya can take much more of this place.
