A. Dormitory Floor;

Canada took a deep breath. She couldn't stay locked up in her room forever, like she had since the punishment for skipping work had made her cut a finger and it had bled all over her shirt. Her good shirt....her only shirt. She'd washed it as best she could and tugged her jacket down over her sleeves.

Unfortunately now was the time to get some sort of food in her and that meant braving the staircase. She ventured out of her room and peered down the hallways, trying to ignore the whispering voices and the phantoms in the corner of her eye.

"Everyone alright?"

B. Staircase

One step at a time, one hand on the wall, that was how she had to go. She paused at every door, peering out into the gloom. The pool looked particularly ominous in the dark...

She stepped out, peering at its depths. Maybe it had monsters--no that was silly. Something America would think. She shook her head and made a little 'come-with' gesture at Kumalop who had gone to bat at the water. It didn't help to linger...and she still had to pass that forest. She gave a little shudder and continued down.

C. Kitchen Floor

The harrowing walk down the staircase had finally gotten her here, to the kitchen floor. What a relief. She stepped through the dimly lit cafeteria, swallowing and contemplating if there might be someone just around the corner. That was silly really, she was a nation, she could handle anything lurking in the shadows. But then she heard that proper voice, the one she'd known for years and she swiveled on the spot.

"E-England?"

"I don't know. It's unnaturally fluffy and sticky-outy. Very bizarre." He grinned a little.

"Where do you want to go? We can stay here or I can take you to your room? Or...?"

"Good. Good. Good. Your safety is priority here. Good. Okay. Now plan. I need one. There are several children lost in the dark and--Amy. I need to find Amy. Amy without Doctor and without Rory. Not good. I need to find her."

"Yes. Amy is...my best friend." The Doctor paused, thinking this over.

"We'll need to search the area and decide on a safehouse. A meeting place. No one will be left behind. I don't like this, Canada. The voices--voices can't hurt you, physically, anyway, but voices are normally just the prelude to things much, much worse."
spacehipster: (There are)

"...yes, voices are never good, especially the ones that try to entice you. It's like a Venus Fly Trap. The Venus smells and tastes delicious. It's what the fly wants, so fly goes and eats. That's not bad, is it? No, now the fly is full. That's good. Problem is, the Venus is hungry too. Snap. It eats the fly. And if the fly could tell us how it felt after that, it would surely say that momentary fullness, gratification is not worth dying for."

"Our best bet for safety is to pick a room and congregate there. It's safety in numbers. I suggest we simply start looking around this floor."
spacehipster: (And Tahiti)

He offers her his arm.

"Yes, let's."
