[ Dorm 1-05, then the rest of the floor. ]

[ Tic... tic... tic...

Such an annoying noise... stop it... s-stop...

... where... what the hell is it? It sounds like a... a heartbeat. Coming from within... her chest? ]

Ahh...!

[ Sayaka opens her eyes abruptly, gasping as if she just woke up from a nightmare. This ceiling... it's not the bathroom. She's laying on top of something soft... a mattress? ]

... [ She's expected her body to hurt more than this, or rather... she thought that knife stuck in her chest eventually killed her, but as she moves her hand to feel around that area, she notes with shock that... there's nothing there. She sits up abruptly, patting her chest frantically, there's no pain, no pain at all... and no knife stuck in her. There's something uncomfortably wrapped around her neck- is this a collar? Wh-what...

Finding the two letters next to her, she's moved by the urge to open them and read.

... ]

... My world is destroyed?! [ She finds herself yelping. What- what kind of sick joke is this? That can't be possible, she was there before she... died? Passed out? No, she's sure her heart stopped before her brain shut out. But then, why did she wake up without a wound in her body? She can't read the rest of the letters, discarding them to the side for now, those words stuck in her head. This is all... so ridicolous... the school, her career, her idol group, her fans... everyone...

Her thoughts then wander to a specific person, but she quickly chases them away before they can affect her more than she is already. There's no way he and her other classmates could be here, right? She's the one who died, not them.

...

After the initial panic attack, Sayaka takes some sweet time scanning the surroundings. Four beds, bedside tables, nothing else catches her attention- ah... except, the chest under her bed. She pulls it out, examining it for a while- until she decides not to open it yet. With how confused she is, opening a strange chest out of nowhere sounded like a real bad idea in her head. First, she must know what on earth is going on. Is this a dream? It feels like one, doesn't it?

Some time later, she decides to bite the bullet and peek outside of her room, before getting to wander through the floor in search of someone who can help her understand... whatever there is to understand. ]


[ Cafeteria ]

[ Sayaka was already worn out from the shock and stress of suddenly waking up, revived after dying miserably, and then being faced with discovery after discovery that surely did no good to her poor heart... but she decided to at least explore a little through the stairway to give herself an idea of where she was thrown in, after a kind soul pointed her to the stairs. Needless to say, she regretted the decision quickly. Without looking back, out of fear and survivor instict, she managed to descend all the way down to the first floor, where a cafeteria was in sight.

She almost wobbles her way in, sitting at the first table she finds, practically draping herself over it, hiding her face in her arms. The poor girl doesn't have the time to cry at her own misery, that she finds a dish with... something less than inviting appearing in front of her. This is food, right?

... Taste be damned, she's going to gulp that thing called oatmeal down. Eugh. At least it's going to fill her stomach for the day. ]


[ Floor 14 ]

[ Once she calms down enough, Sayaka decides to explore each floor thoroughly... at least the ones that don't give her feelings of dread. The surroundings of this floor surprise her in a vaguely pleasant way, although she's still pretty wary of everything. She'll poke around, eventually finding some of the music she can recognize from her own world. Relaxing needs to be a thing that happens, she cried enough today... and so, she's found sitting down on one of the couches, eyes closed as she lets herself get lulled by the song in the earphones.

Hell has its own pleasantries, at the very least. ]

Floor 14

[surpassthelimit]

[If you asked Axel how to work most of this equipment, he really wouldn't know. He was certainly fumbling around with some things until he thought he had what he wanted.

And with a press of a button, everything in the room was playing some weird rock music variation FROM THE FUTURE rather loudly. Including Sayaka's headphones. Not that he knows but he's already jamming out a little, doing some taijutsu warmups in a clear area of the room.]

[idolizer]

[ OH MY GOD WHY WOULD YOU-- Sayaka literally jolts up when the music suddenly changes, heart skipping a beat as she abruptly drops the earphones. Her reaction wouldn't be as bad if she didn't witness the horrors of earlier. It doesn't take long to find out the source of such scare- what the hell is that guy doing, exercising in the middle of a media room?! ]

Excuse me...?!

[surpassthelimit]

[Pause....]

Excuse...you?

[Whelp, this would be awkward of Axel cared about it being awkward.]

If you want to join in, I could clear you some room.

[idolizer]

[ Join in what... she came here to relax dammit. :( ]

The music is loud. May I ask what you're doing?

[surpassthelimit]

[Relaxation will never happen, nope.]

Training. Can't slack off around here, trust me.

[idolizer]

[ W O W you. ]

... Isn't there a gym or a wider area to train? I was trying to relax.

[surpassthelimit]

Having music makes it all the better. Besides, you can't relax by laying around. You have to get rid of that energy.

[idolizer]

Music always helped me relax, though...

[surpassthelimit]

Don't they have something like the Law of Conservation of Energy or something? If you don't get rid of all of that energy, it'll turn into mass, I think. Which means you'll get fat.

[idolizer]

[ ... What kind of faulty logic is that? ]

I don't think it works that way... and really, I just needed a couple hours to relax, I've just arrived here.

[surpassthelimit]

[He pilots a mecha and fights wars. What else do you want?]

A new kid, huh? Where did you end up coming from?

[Still kind of going at a kick/punch routine.]

[idolizer]

[ And she's just going to watch. She can't convince him to turn off this music, can she... ]

I'm from Japan. I was... at school.

[ Not sure if she should disclose all the details about how she was trapped into the school and forced to (try to) kill someone. HELLO, I WAS STABBED AND DIED BEFORE COMING HERE, TEE HEE. ]

[surpassthelimit]

I haven't really been there to visit before. Aren't you a little too old to still be in school though?

[idolizer]

Uh... no. I'm in High School actually.

[surpassthelimit]

What, really? University would have been my guess. Kids these days...

[idolizer]

To be fair, that was my last year in high school. I would have pursued my career afterwards, but then I ended up here.

[ If everything didn't go to hell afterwards... literally, because she does think this is Hell. ]

[surpassthelimit]

Good luck with that. I joined the military after high school so I can say that doing what you want is best.

[idolizer]

...

I can't really do that anymore, even if I wanted to.

[surpassthelimit]

Don't tell me something like your parents don't want you to do that kind of thing.

[idolizer]

... I died, back in my world. And then I found myself here.

[surpassthelimit]

Is that so?

[He pauses to scratch his chin. He's had close friends die way to often to be too phased. Then again, that answer does give hope that he might see some people that he'd want to see again but couldn't because they were dead.]

Might as well take advantage of what you've got here then.

[idolizer]

I wouldn't know how. There's nothing left for me to do.

[ Her career was everything, literally everything, and some moron who's tsundere for baseball took it away from her. There's no way she's going to admit that she started the whole tango, nu-huh, it was totally his fault! ]

[surpassthelimit]

Giving up that easily?

[idolizer]

[ To that, she doesn't respond. Seriously, what is there left to do for her? What is life outside her dream career and inside such a scary place? She's better off dead here, isn't she... ]

[surpassthelimit]

You're probably wondering if you're better off being dead, huh? I say screw that. If you're going to be in hell, you might as well try to kick the Devil's ass and take his place.
