[ With Jeanne out of the picture, it's a wonder who would be around to conduct Sunday service in her absence...
The awnser comes quickly enough. Someone woke up early enough to slip a note under everyone's door:
EMERGENCY MEETING
Playground. 8AM. If anyone asks, we're attempting to hold church.
When everyone gathers, though, there is no church. There's just Hunter and his net gun looking incredibly stern. ]
Morning everyone. Hope you've all had some time to calm down after the drama bomb that dropped yesterday...
[ He starts pacing as he speaks. ] Look, I get it. A dog everyone liked had died, people who were really close to him wanted to avenge him, but jumping the gun and attacking someone based on suspicion alone just caused a huge angry mess. In the future, if this happens again, how about we save the angry insults until after we find concrete evidence of someone with blood on their hands?
[ Yes. He is stopping to emphasize that last bit. Feel the annoyance in your bones. ]
Of course, I don't want to stay here any longer than most of you. And as Dewey pointed out to me last night, we can't fight all the monsters on our own. I mean, we're outnumbered by them anyway. Even if everyone was still alive, that's still about twenty of us and a whole lot more of them.
So what we need to do is strategize an escape plan.
That means scoping out every part of the school as thoroughly as possible for clues. Look for an opening, a document that lists the monster's weak spots, something that combats ghost stuff. I have a feeling there's gonna be another late night terror tomorrow. If you wake up for that, check out everything you can. We need all the Intel we can get.
Oh, and weapons! How many people got those out of the vending machine? Non-lethal, preferably, but we can't afford to be that picky. Dewey has offered self defense classes, but if anyone else wants to help him teach that, that would be great... I'm hoping we won't have to face too many monsters in our path, but we should be prepared to fight back... [ A pause. Something else came to mind. ] Oh yeah, I should've mentioned this earlier. When I talk about monsters here, I mean the twisted nightmare things in the glass containers. Not our classmates. Even if they end up being driven to murder for some reason. Trust me when I say none of these deaths would have happened if our collective captors didn't keep poking us with the proverbial stick.
That should cover everything... Any questions? Concerns? Maybe a good suggestion or two?
NO CHURCH, ONLY MEETING
