Claudette was feeling down. She had been trying to tap on the wall for a while but it seemed no one was on that side of the wall. Drake was sleeping on the bed and she had nothing to do and she didn't want to wake him. She got up from the floor and moved to the other side of the room to the other wall. Maybe there was someone there. "Hello?" She called out tapping on the wall. "Anyone there?" She hoped it was Silvio. Or Elliot or someone she had met here. She was really desperate to hear Silvio's voice though, at least then she knew he was okay and not in some sick game again.
"Is anybody listening?" She asked the wall again pressing her hand on the cold, unfeeling wall.

Hello?" David sighed not really hearing a voice at first. He usually have his mind stuck on something else and Tomas was sleeping. "Anyone there?" David eyes widen as he heard a familar voice through the wall. "Is anybody listening?" David was already leaning on the wall.
"Claudette, Claudie? Is that you?" David hoped his guess was right because through the wall he can hear a bit of dismay and confusion in her voice and he wanted to know if she was alright. It sounded like the girl he met at the basement but the voice could belong to someone else. David didn't want to introduce himself or say any clarification of his name just in case the woman on the other wall didn't know David and it would be weird if David just acted like a hero all of the sudden just to comfort that woman out of the clear blue, but whoever was through the wall David was willing to listen and help the female through this time. David stood up and placed his right hand on the cold, unsettling wall.

Hearing her name being called out felt so surreal all of a sudden. But however she felt happy that it wasn't her just talking to herself to the wall. "David!" She exclaimed. "It is good to hear from you again! How have you been holding up?" She asked leaning against the wall and hugging herself. "I hope you have been safe. Have you been in any games yet?" She asked not able to stop herself from barraging him with questions.

David!" So she was precious little Claidie! David smiled once he heard her voice with a tint of happiness."It is good to hear from you again! How have you been holding up?" David sighed.
"I'm doing well, but could do better. I been to 3 room switches so far now I'm here with Tomas, and you? Are you alright?" David asked concerned. Still facing the wall."I hope you have been safe. Have you been in any games yet?"
"Games? No what Games?" David asked confused he didn't know what did Claudette meant by games.
"What happened with the games? Do you know where everyone's located? Or why we are here?" David asked since it seemed that Claude was most aware of what was happening than David was.

Oh sweet, innocent David. Part of her wanted to keep him ignorant of the fucked up shit that was happening in here, but the realist side of her told her that it was better for him if she told him what to expect. "Oh David...." She said not yet sure how to begin. "After we got gassed in the basement I woke up in a room tied up with nine other girls. There was this guy who wore a mask and pointed a gun at each of us in turn and pulled the trigger. One 'lucky' girl, Hannah got shot with confetti and later we found out that she was wedded to the man who was pointing the gun at us." She paused to take a breath and continued. "The second room switch I got roomed with Silvio. He had been to a game too. But this time... there wasn't any fake bullets or confetti.... They had been tied down to chairs and were forced to play a game of cards. They had to pair two hearts together in order to win, but they were not allowed to give hints about their cards or reveal them. Well they didn't manage and someone died.... A girl... named Lydia... According to Silvio an overweight, older Adian woman barged in when the game was set. She was angry and shot Lydia... Silvio was covered in her blood when I woke up with him..." She paused again to collect her thoughts and not to get too caught up in her emotions before continuing. "Right now I am roomed with Drake. I have no idea what has happened to Silvio and I am worried..." That was an understatement. She felt tears filling her eyes and overflowing to her cheeks. She began to wipe them away before she realized he couldn't see them. "And when we were in our previous room... I found this old picture of an Asian couple on their wedding day. I recognized the bride... I had some dealings with her in the past... She was a matchmaker and didn't like it when I complained about a match she made for me. She got rude and started stalking and harassing me.... Anyway, long story short Silvio and I think it is the same woman who has us locked up in here. It would make sense with all these weddings and hearts and you know..." She paused again and took a few deep breaths. "Sorry for rambling..."

"Oh David...." David was listening with some sort of a smile still. Her tone was unsettling a bit. He feel like she was gonna say something terrible. This time David had his ears up.
"After we got gassed in the basement I woke up in a room tied up with nine other girls. There was this guy who wore a mask and pointed a gun at each of us in turn and pulled the trigger. One 'lucky' girl, Hannah got shot with confetti and later we found out that she was wedded to the man who was pointing the gun at us." David widen his eyes in shock. David wandered who was the gunman was but he can tell that Claudie was choking in her own words a bit but his small smiled turned into a frown. "The second room switch I got roomed with Silvio. He had been to a game too. But this time... there wasn't any fake bullets or confetti.... They had been tied down to chairs and were forced to play a game of cards. They had to pair two hearts together in order to win, but they were not allowed to give hints about their cards or reveal them. Well they didn't manage and someone died.... A girl... named Lydia... According to Silvio an overweight, older Adian woman barged in when the game was set. She was angry and shot Lydia... Silvio was covered in her blood when I woke up with him..." Listening to this part a tear came from his face. There was a sick game after all. David didn't want to believe it but she confirmed it, but David didn't know that someone died! Lydia! Lydia died! He knew that girl on the second week of his job and she visited him once a while and it was just very nice knowing her. She was and still is a special friend of David's. Tears turned into unstoppable crying, but it was silent. All this time David thought that people was at least fine. Now they possibly had another wicked game!
"Right now I am roomed with Drake. I have no idea what has happened to Silvio and I am worried..." David inhaled deeply.
"Wait, your with Drake, Silvio has gone. Claudette please listen to me. Silvio is probably in another room. I know this is scary but all hope isn't lost." David exclaimed as tears still flowed down his face. He tried not to make it appear in his voice, but it was already cracking up from crying. It's been forever in 10 years before he cried like that; with his uncle he cried recently, but it wasn't about the crying. It was about the pain and fear in his friends hearts during those events. He just knew that sooner or later it was going to be his turn. He wished if he can make a deal with the kidnapper to just keep him and experiment with him and just let everyone go he would and hannah wouldn't be alone because her uncle would surely take care of her. David had these nightmares that was linked to this. Could it be that those nightmares was just mini visions of what was going on and what may happen in the future, either way David knew that everyone was in some type of danger. As this was happening he was talking to his uncle and then with Maya. He was playing with her for a bit and this is going on. David felt like he slapped all those people including Claudie in the face for not being aware, or ignoring the situation. Of course David had nightmares of it but he wasn't aware that it was actually taking place in that very building.
"And when we were in our previous room... I found this old picture of an Asian couple on their wedding day. I recognized the bride... I had some dealings with her in the past... She was a matchmaker and didn't like it when I complained about a match she made for me. She got rude and started stalking and harassing me.... Anyway, long story short Silvio and I think it is the same woman who has us locked up in here. It would make sense with all these weddings and hearts and you know..." David sighed.
"So it seems to be an Asian woman? I was right earlier when I was roomed with Maya I thought this must been a matching game and the reason I thought that was because they we're a even bit of male and female and maybe an odd number of girls! So my theory was right? This is some mitch-matching force shit!?" David thought about what Maya could've saw in the bathrooms and at one point when Maya was sleeping he finally saw the ducks as well.
"So what is these love ducks around. So basically this phsyco thinks that she can make people love and they would need her help!? Oh hell no, but you know what someone should've helped that Asian woman. Maybe she would've had some help and we would be at are normal lives right now!" David exclaimed with a sadden sigh.
She paused again and took a few deep breaths. "Sorry for rambling..." David looked up at the wall.
"Don't be sorry. It's too much to speak out of your mouth anyway. Claudie I feel like I have to tell you this, but recently since I been here, I been having hellish-like dreams. At first I thought it was just my nerve damage acting up again but when you said all of that... I don't know what to really think. However, I know that you we're and still are scared and I'm scared too but right now we need each other and for however long that time will be we still need each other. That's all we can do right now. Until we form a gang somehow and capture the kidnapper, and get the fuck out here." David said metaphorically speaking because that's not gonna be any time soon. "Until that happens all we can do is hope and be together and keep each other with hope." David said as he slightly looked at the ground and closed his eyes processing everything he just heard.

"Wait, your with Drake, Silvio has gone. Claudette please listen to me. Silvio is probably in another room. I know this is scary but all hope isn't lost." That was the first thing she heard after her long ramble. His voice sounded a little shaky. "Are you alright?" She asked concerned. She pondered though if she should tell David about her and Silvio. It seemed without that context he wouldn't understand. But was it something she should talk about? She and Silvio weren't really a couple yet, they had agreed to go on dates after getting out. When that would be she had no clue. Perhaps for now it was hers and Silvio's secret. It didn't ease her worry though.
"So it seems to be an Asian woman? I was right earlier when I was roomed with Maya I thought this must been a matching game and the reason I thought that was because they we're a even bit of male and female and maybe an odd number of girls! So my theory was right? This is some mitch-matching force shit!?" It seemed like he had his own theories as well. So he wasn't completely out of the loop. That was good. "Anyway, keep sharing the information with as many people as possible. People need to know." She instructed. "And if you some day end up in a game or in a wedding don't fight it. Kathrine told us that they had shock collars on and if they didn't do the wedding like told they got shocked. I don't even dare to think what would happen if you refused to play the game."
"So what is these love ducks around. So basically this phsyco thinks that she can make people love and they would need her help!? Oh hell no, but you know what someone should've helped that Asian woman. Maybe she would've had some help and we would be at are normal lives right now!" Claudette couldn't hold her tears anymore. Was she to be partially blamed why this woman went crazy? She pulled her legs to her chest and hugged them. If she had just kept her mouth shut and just asked someone else to fix her up things would have been fine.
"Don't be sorry. It's too much to speak out of your mouth anyway. Claudie I feel like I have to tell you this, but recently since I been here, I been having hellish-like dreams. At first I thought it was just my nerve damage acting up again but when you said all of that... I don't know what to really think. However, I know that you we're and still are scared and I'm scared too but right now we need each other and for however long that time will be we still need each other. That's all we can do right now. Until we form a gang somehow and capture the kidnapper, and get the fuck out here." She wiped her tears away and sniffed. "Dreams? What kind of dreams?" He had listened to her ramble so she wanted to return the favour.

David nodded and reassured her that he was fine. "Anyway, keep sharing the information with as many people as possible. People need to know." She instructed. "And if you some day end up in a game or in a wedding don't fight it. Kathrine told us that they had shock collars on and if they didn't do the wedding like told they got shocked. I don't even dare to think what would happen if you refused to play the game." David was shocked. "Well. This may be harder than I thought?" David exclaimed quietly When David told her the nightmare statements he heard her cry harder and it made him feel bad. He didn't want her to feel worse than she already is.
"Dreams? What kind of dreams?" David thought for a bit. He didn't want to traumatize Claudie and get her frightened for her life so David decided to lie a bit, or just completed dodged her question.
"Um. When I said dreams...just don't worry about it. It's unimportant." David exclaimed back.

"David, just tell me." She said noticing he was trying to ignore her question. Maybe to her benefit, but it was just dreams. Sure, if they were horrific it would sound horrific no matter what. But it still might not come true. "Please... Just because I am upset now doesn't mean I can't listen to you. So please tell me what kind of dreams you had." She attempted to convince him.

David notice that she wanted an answer and David still didn't want to tell her. He shouldn't have mentioned it in the first place.
"And you are upset! What friend I will be making you more upset. It's alright Claudette. No worries." David exclaimed because he knew that most of his nightmares seems so real that he didn't really want to explain it to anyone because he didn't want her to think about it and those nightmares go to her and he didn't want that.

Claudette sighed. "And you are making me that friend who would only take and take. But if I can't convince you then so be it." She said sadly. "Who have you been roomed with before now?" She asked trying to change the subject. Perhaps she would meet them herself some day. She also wanted to ask about his room, but she had a suspicion it was as horrible as this one. And even if it was better it would just make her feel worse.

It hurted David that this girl was calm in the basement with Silvio and now she's a wreckage pack. David wished he can hug her.
"Who have you been roomed with before now?" David sighed. "I'll be interested in telling you that. So my first roommate was Russel for many other but uncle to me and we we're calm. We we're in better rooms than this shithole right here, and same with Maya in my second room switch. It was awkward as hell at first but then we started to talk for a while and we are still great friends!" David said still not really getting over Maya because even though he said that they were just friends David was just lying to himself. Maybe if he doesn't see her for a while his perspective Will change.
"I mean. With Maya...that was a pretty funny situation than awkward I mean there was some boiling frustration points that we both had but we're good now." You can possibly hear the fake tone in his voice in both statements that he was still hurt emotionally than physically.
"But now I'm with Tomas, in this crappy room and let's just say that he didn't seem to happy to see me here with him." David exclaimed lastly.

She did not know Russel and she did not know Maya. If she ever got roomed with Russel she thought they could get along. With David's description of Maya she suspected that between them there might be fireworks. Claudie had never been able to get along with other girls. David seemed like a pretty chill guy, so for him to have an awkward moment with her would spell trouble in her book. "I hope I get to meet them. I was first roomed with Lydia, and then Silvio. Now I am with Drake." She repeated once more and glanced over at the bed. "To be completely honest... I would have preferred to stay with Silvio." She smiled a little to herself and blushed at how silly she was acting. No one knew if she would survive this place, or if he would survive. But yet somehow she was looking forward to getting out of here. "Tell me David... What would you do once we get out of here? I mean when we are free and all..." She held back the word 'if', she decided she didn't like that word now. It was too bleak to think about.

David chuckled when Claudie hoped to meet the people he was roomed with.
"Tell me David... What would you do once we get out of here? I mean when we are free and all..."
"Hm. Well. I'm going to dance. I'm going to be dancing with my little sister, uncle and people I love and care about the most! The reason why I'll be dancing because my father always told me "if I even felt in a place where I can't escape and if I knew it wasn't my fault and your just in bondage, once I'm free I could dance." I always thought he was crazy for saying such things like that, but now that seems so reasonable at this time. If we ever get out of here you can dance with me too Claudette." David exclaimed.
"What about you?" David implied. "What will you do once your free." David exclaimed.

She listened to him, closing her eyes so she could imagine it better. Sure, dancing sounded nice right about now. "That sounds nice." She commented. "Oh, how nice of you to save one dance for me too." She said smiling. She wondered if he still had that crush on her Silvio had mentioned or not. Maybe having that dance then wasn't a good idea then. But oh well, that was a problem for the future. When he asked her about what she would do when they were free of here. She let out a laugh as she thought about all the promises she had made while here. For Elliot to do her make up, for her to go on a date with Silvio and to have a dance with David. Her calendar was going to get so full in this place if she kept promising people things. But at least she had something to look forwards to. "Well I actually promised someone I would go on a date with them. And to another person that I would let them do my make up. And now that you and I would have a dance. So I will have allot things to do when I am free."
