Announcement 001

[Whether you're waking up in the clinic just now, or have already done so and are now wandering the halls, a sudden screech of microphone feedback blares over the speakers before fading back out.

A moment later, a woman clears her throat. Her voice is husky and mature, but still feminine, and overall she sounds very authoritative...if not a bit sarcastic.]


Good evening, and welcome to the new school year. I hope your arrival was a pleasant one, last year everybody threw-up from motion sickness, it was quite messy.

[There's a long pause as she seems to think, or perhaps just let any anticipated bustling chatter calm down.] Now, you're all intelligent human beings...for the most part. But I suppose I'll pretend I'm talking to the insipid uneducated masses for a moment; it shouldn't prove too difficult.

[She clears he throat again.] In every hall, you shall find a small intercom. You may use that to ask me any questions after my announcements and "privately" converse. Now, if you head North down one of the halls near the clinic in the Central Wing and keep going, you'll eventually come to either the West or East Dorm Wings, depending on which fork in the road you chose. There you'll find all necessary bunk beds and spare socks.

So, make sure you're all well rested for class in the morning; we wouldn't want to get a failing grade now would we?

[And with that, there's another burst of feedback before her announcement abruptly ends. Anybody who had been wandering the halls will notice a distinct lack of...well, anybody else aside from new arrivals, the Nurse, and the Lunch Lady.

The strange woman over the loudspeakers may have mentioned classes, but the school seemed completely devoid of any teachers to provide those classes. In fact, a lot of things seemed...off.]

Agent York? I don't think we've met.

[He holds out his own badge.]

I'm FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper.

[he tucks the badge away.]

Unfortunately I don't. I was hoping you did.

It seems like we're both in the dark here - and we're not alone.

[ York casts a glance back down the hall in the general direction of the clinic. ]

Aside from us, the selection seems... random. As though that's the point.

We certainly do seem to be in a pickle, don't we?

[He glances in the same direction.]

I'm not really sure if I fully understand whats going on here, got any ideas?

A collection of people, none of which seem to know each other. Not uncommon given this is a campus but someone should be able to identify a fellow peer from class. Have you seen that happen, yet?

[ He plucks a cigarette from his pack of Heavies and places it between his lips, making no move to light it just yet. ]

... I believe we'll need to start there.

You have a good point there... to be honest I've barely seen anyone walking these halls. Just a few here or there, usually on there own and just as confused as us.

[His brows furrow deep in thought.]

Why would someone collect random people, and place them in a campus?

I wonder if the perpetrator had some trauma involving their time in school. Perhaps they forced others into this campus because of that? But then again why just do that and leave them to wander? Unless perhaps... they're planning on more than just kidnapping us.

That's always a possibility but it's too soon to tell. We'll have to keep our minds open as we scope out the local scenery.

[As long as one of the rooms has a working coffee maker... As soon as he places his pack away, he moves to collect the unlit cigarette from his lips and holds it between his fingers. York then shifts his body away from Cooper and places his other hand against his temple. He lowers his voice considerably. ]

A new investigation with a fellow agent. It's a nice change of pace - isn't it, Zach?

I hear you on that.

[God help this campus if there's no coffee... He doesn't mind him leaning away to address some mystery person. It wasn't all that odd to him. He himself addressed Diane often, and he was less odd than the woman with the log back in Twin Peaks. He just casually looks around the hallway.]

I find it odd, that I have not been able to locate the name of this building, or of the campus. Have you had any luck?
