(Current players: {§hani}: Tally P-Girl: J. Lee (stupid censors >_<) Mightymarty2: Baltor For those that wish to join, please use the planning thread for character submissions) You awake to the sound of a quartet of gunshots off in the distance, finding yourselves in a large mail room. How you got here is something you can't for the life of you figure out; the last thing you remember, regardless of the details surrounding it, is your death. Your clothes are also gone, replaced with less ornate and slightly dirty street clothes that inexplicably fit your size well. Letters and packages are scattered around on the floor, some of them moved into piles while countless others seem to have just been left alone. In some areas of the floor, small pieces of glass glitter. They're the remnants of the florescent lights that would normally have illuminated the room, but now the only light comes from a collection of small slits in one of the walls leading to the outside, each roughly the size of a dime. Among you are a number of other individuals, all of whom look just as confused as you are about what's going on. Tally, Baltor, in your pockets each of you will find a small but functioning camera capable of taking pictures. Mr. Lee will instead find a lighter which suspiciously has his initials carved onto the bottom. A fifth gunshot rings out, startling a number of the others. A few of them huddle together, deciding the need for allies outweights any suspicions they may have. A few others though begin to distance themselves from the others, taking steps further back to the outer areas of the room. A few moments pass but there are no more gunshots from outside the room and as such an uneasy calm settles on the group. Well, you have nothing but questions right now, so you might as well start trying to figure things out.

The doors leading out of the mailroom weren't just on Baltor's minds. One of the people moved towards it slowly and reached out to grab the doorknob. At the last fatal moment however, they paused.
"Do you... do you think I should-" he slowly said, turning to the others.
"Of course!" shouted another with tanned skin. "We can't stay cooped up forever in here, can we?" However, few of the others shared his sentiments.
The man at the door gulped nervously before finally closing his eyes and pulling the door open in one swift gesture. A few seconds later he breathed a sigh of relief and turned to everyone else. "It's... well, the coast looks clear. Just looks like an ordinary hallway in an-" Another shot was fired. Not from outside, but from within the mail room. The bullet caught the man between the eyes, killing him outright as the group could only stare in horror.
From the corner farthest away from the door, faint laughter began to be heard. A somewhat chubby man played with the revolver in his hands, mumbling on and on about the number "twenty six" before he brought it up again. Confusion or fear was gone from his eyes. All that remained was madness.

It's rather fortunate for Lee that the insane man is one unused to hand-to-hand combat as well. The revolver goes off again, harmlessly striking a wall and leaving a hole there as the two struggle. A moment later the gun falls to the ground, getting knocked away.
As Lee wrestles with the man, he'll notice the man's strength growing weaker and weaker. His brow furrows as he pants, unable to overcome Lee as his body fails him. His breaths grow more and more ragged, visible vapor beginning to be seen coming from his mouth as he falls to the ground-
And simply stops. Whatever the cause, he's simply stopped, his body locking up on itself.

(Item acquired: 1 revolver with 1 bullet remaining in it)
Lee's caution is expected but unneeded. The man's body slowly begins to lose color and it goes limp. Oddly though, a small flower begins to sprout from his forehead at a remarkably fast rate, eventually opening up to reveal a large seed resembling a small, red, leaveless pineapple.
By now, the mailroom is almost bare, most everyone having fled when they had the chance. However, one man with short, silvery-gray hair remains, looking Baltor and Lee and letting out a relieved sigh.
"Thank god at least two other people could actually take the initiative here."
