[Fin] The Murder-Free Hotel

[Despair's Archon of Memes]

Hm... Aha!

Hibachi finds an electrical plug near the Arcade and plugs herself right in.

Downloading electrical circuit map... Accessing network interfaces... Access complete!

Hibachi waits inside...

Those bees should be finished with those security cameras... As soon as they are, Operation "Blissful Death" shall commence!

[Kennifer]

-Arcade-

Amanda now seems more interested in watching whatever the bees are doing than playing Skee-Ball, although she's collected up the tickets she's won.

[Zanreo]

CATS tries getting back to his game, but finds it hard to concentrate with the bees flying around. "Guess I will have to send you on way to destruction..."

[Despair's Archon of Memes]

Hibachi overhears CATS in the Arcade...

Oh dear... it seems like some people have discovered my "plan"... Oh look, the surveillance cameras are finished!

Hibachi, using her Teleporter she had back when she was a Ninja, teleports to the surveillance camera room. Right on cue, the surveillance cameras activate and Hibachi's bees fly back to her room.

[Kennifer]

-Arcade-

"Okay, that was weird."

Amanda shrugs, and now that the bees are gone, returns to Skee-Ball.

[Zanreo]

"So they retreat... guess will be no need for attacks. Still, I lose, might take look outside..." CATS says as he walks out of the arcade.

[Despair's Archon of Memes]

ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL.

Hibachi snaps her fingers, and, in an instant, every single light in the hotel shuts off.

[Kennifer]

-Arcade-

"Hey, what the hell?"

Amanda tries to leave the arcade and trips over... who even knows what in the process. Because klutz.

---

-Living Room-

Kennifer wakes up, notices it's really dark for some reason, and then... goes back to sleep. Yeah.

[Zanreo]

"...what happen? Being just power outage, or..." CATS's mechanical eye starts glowing, giving off some light.

[wingedcatgirl]

Arcade
<What the heck?!> Mew exclaims psychically as the lights all go out.

Quickly, it transforms into a light-emitting Volbeat.

[artsyGeek]

Living Room

Rebel panicked at the sight of the dark hotel. "WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING?!"

[Caret]

Living Room

Bow is meanwhile trying to navigate the darkness.

Evei, evoi veh vee veai? (OK, what in the Distortion World happened here?)

[madface7]

Stew's room

Stew calls out from his room. "Hey, uh Sylvi? Are you able to pink smoke this power outage away, because please do!"

[Kennifer]

-Living Room-

Kennifer's awake again.

"Really though, who turned out the lights? And... why?"

[PointMaid]

Ruby, near the kitchen after having gotten coffee, finally notices the power is off. And there are... bees.

Oh, great. There go my experiments.

She tries to see if the stove will still light. Is there a candle or even a paper napkin? Maybe some smoke will keep the bees away.

[wingedcatgirl]

Stew's room

Stew calls out from his room."Hey, uh Sylvi? Are you able to pink smoke this power outage away, because please do!"

Dining Room
As Sylvi quickly applies a glamour plate to make all her clothing garish glowing nonsense, her ears twitch at Stew's distant words. "Pink smoke, of course." She summons a cloud of pink smoke, which flies into the walls...

...

...

"Oh. This is going to take some time, isn't it? Gah, I can't believe I'm not in the habit of carrying around a proper light source..."

[madface7]

"Hold on, I can't see you." Stew feels around the wall and grabs a cactus pot.

"This is you, right? Please tell me this is you." 

Little does he know, Sylvi is on an entirely different floor. Stew touches the cactus and leaps backward.

"GAH- Dammit! Not you! Gotta wait for my eyes to adjust-"

[Kennifer]

-near the Arcade-

There is a loud "OUCH!" as Amanda bumps into the door on her way out. She's going to try to feel her way to... probably the lobby or living room or anywhere else she can find an unoccupied chair or sofa to sit on.

-----

-Living Room-

"Really, what's going on? Please tell me the lights are out for everyone and I didn't go blind or something?"

[madface7]

Timefriend had wandered downstairs to the living room to grab a snack, and is ow terrified now that the power is out.

crapcrapcrapcrapcrapwhydontihavemynightlightonmecrappoopuuuuuugh  

He stumbles into a wall, and knocks down a bunch of shelves, which begin collapsing onto the floor...

[wingedcatgirl]

Y'shtola, who was already blind, dashes off without waiting for Sylvi and G'raha when she hears TimeFriend knocking over the furniture.

"Wh- Shtola, wait!" Sylvi calls. "Gah..." Carefully, between her sharp Miqo'te eyes and the glow of her horrible outfit, Sylvi slowly follows after her friend, G'raha close behind.

[Kennifer]

"God that was loud... Are you okay?"

[PointMaid]

Ruby manages to feel her way to the stove, but can't seem to find a knob to turn on a burner for light or anything to burn for smoke. She can't help but think it's karma... which she doesn't believe in, but still.

[madface7]

Timefriend mumbles something shyly, and tries to regain his balance... but trips and falls, knocking over a lamp, which knocks over a table, which knocks over a large shelf... that falls straight onto Kennifer.

[Kennifer]

There is a rather loud scream from Kennifer and then...

Nothing. Maybe a sickening "crunch" sound, but no more noise from Kennifer.

[madface7]

...

...Miss?

Timefriend steps back and screams at the top of his lungs...

...

...

and then, in the blink of an eye, he is back in the kitchen, eating a sandwich, clueless as to what transpired. The lights are on, and everyone is back in their respective locations as of earlier.
