Realistic or Modern Boarding School Hostage

Anna looked over at Gale, slightly worried "Hey, are you ok?" She asked frowning slightly.

 

[BELL]

"Sure. Are you?" His voice is dead calm, almost like he's forcing himself to be more calm than usual.

 

[FictionalReality]

His tone of voice troubled Anne, and she sat next to him "I'm fine." She thought for a moment about how to word her next words, and eventually settled with "You know you don't have to pretend, right?" Speaking like this to anyone was rare for her, and she could hear the awkwardness in the words.


@BELL

 

[BELL]

"Pretend what? I'm fine." He looks away. "Why do you care anyways? I just get everyone into more trouble. I'm just a criminal who rejected his family of criminals."

 

[FictionalReality]

"That's not something that matters. Many of us are just here for our parents to get rid of us, and it's not something to be ashamed of. We all need to stick together right now if we want to escape, and that means showing others our true feelings." She stared at him for a moment, before continuing "Even if you feel fine now, just know that you don't need to hide your true feelings."


@BELL

 

[BELL]

"Sure, alright. But murder, theft, breaking and entering, and resisting arrest are all crimes."

Looking around, Nathan spoke up again


"Now, for those of you on the fence, know that we will NOT act immediately in a suicide charge." Unless all else fails, He thought, remembering Cowra. "Whatever we do, will need careful planning and, as I mentioned, intelligence. We need to know everything there is to know, and that is the first kind of help we need. Keep vigilant and mentally note everything you see that may serve us even the smallest purpose. Remember, once we have served our purpose, they will kill us!" Nathan realized too late he had said that last part without thinking of the fear impact that would have, but continued. "If we wish to survive, we will band together."

Ian sat in his room listening to the audio from the cell. He was not one to laugh often but he almost completely lost it laughing listening to this Nathan kid's speech. He honestly believed that they were in Cuba? How could anyone say something so stupid. It was like someone took the kid directly out of an old cheesy action movie. Unfortunately, they seemed to have grabbed him by accident instead of the hero of the story.

Lilith started to walk around the room quietly, her stomach growled loudly and she whined. She walked over to the cell door and peaked through the bars,"Hey! We haven't eaten in a while. When do we get food?," she shouted at a guard. The guard looked surprised that Lilith had spoken to him and decided to ask Ian,"Hey boss, are we supposed to feed them yet?" She was happy that he actually asked for them and smiled in appreciation. Since her anger had boiled over, hunger rose quickly.


@ModernRanger

 

[ModernRanger]

Ian raised the walkie talkie to his lips.


"No not yet." He replied simply.

 

[BELL]

Gale pushes himself off of the wall and looks down at Anne, smiling. "Thanks for the talk." He then puts his hand on her head and tousled her hair, before walking off.

 

[Marie Rain]

Lilith pouted when she heard that and put her forehead on the bar while looking at the guard. He shrugged,"You heard him." She smiled sweetly at him,"Come on can't you bend the rules this once?" She held one of the bars,"Just a little snack?" The guard raised an eyebrow,"Not happening kid," he said avoiding looking towards them. She whined and used puppy dog eyes on him. He sighed and pulled out a granola bar from his pocket, handing it to her,"Leave me alone." She smiled,"Yay thanks," she said while walking away towards the others. She opened it and gave everyone a small section of it to be fair.

 

[BELL]

Gale gives his piece back to Lilith. "I'm not hungry."

 

[WoodenZebra]

Madison was listening to what Nathan had to say.She agreed a little,but there were probably cameras and audio bugs in there,so she tried to make up a plan to make it so that she can talk without being heard.Madison started looking around and noticed immideately that there were 4 cameras.All corners.Madison thought a bit again then got an idea.The cameras must display audio as well,but what if there are secret cameras somewhere.That wouldn't be good.She had to find the right time when no guards were watching on camera and outside the cell,but how.Mabye she could find some type of diversion to make them not watching them and find a way to delete any footage of them escaping and put it on a loop of them sleeping,but there was one problem.Who would agree to this plan.Madison thought to ask this question later but in the meantime she needed to talk to not look suspicious,"Nathan we're not in Cuba it's pretty obvious" Madison said

Lilith sat down in a corner with her piece of the granola bar. Even though he refused, she left the piece next to Gale. She ate it slowly and although it would not do much, it was something. She leaned back and sang softly to herself. The song was gentle and soothing. She stared at the light that hung from the ceiling as she sang to herself.

 

[BELL]

Gale sighs ands eats the piece of granola bar. "There. See?"

 

[Phil]

Max sighs and hugs her knees to her chest pulling herself back out of her head.

 

[ModernRanger]

Walking over to Max, Jethro sits next to her. After a few moments, he looks over at her,


"Don't you worry Max. I'm going to get you out of here alive. I promise you that much."


@Phil

 

[Phil]

Max looks over at him and smiles weakly "thank you, I appreciate that. But you shouldn't make promises you can't keep."

 

[ModernRanger]

He puts a single hand on her shoulder,


"You're right, I shouldn't make promises that I don't think I can keep. That being said, I promise I'll get you out of here alive. I will make it so you can go home safely." Jethro rephrased. He hoped that she would be able to tell how determined he was to get her to safety.


@Phil

 

[BELL]

Gale looks around the cell. When he's sure nobody's watching him, he walks over and leans against the wall next to Lilith.

 

[Marie Rain]

Lilith stopped singing to herself and looked up at him,"What's up? You seem kinda sketched out," she said before looking down at her hand. The blood had dried but now it itched. She wished she hadn't punched the wall.

 

[Lordvader59]

Nathan would turn to Madison and whisper through clenched teeth "I know! They don't however and I am trying to keep morale up by at least making them THINK they know where they are." Saying this, he put the piece of granola bar in his pocket.


@WoodenZebra

 

[BELL]

"I'm fine, just pissed at Ian." Gale looks down and smiles.

 

[Phil]

Max felt a small amount of comfort from his touch. "thank you" She leaned into him, resting her head on his shoulder "I will do my best to take you with me"
