WEEK SIX: REMOVAL

[retellers]

WEEK SIX: REMOVAL (22 remain) Time to wake up, participants of the Realm. At 8am, everyone will receive a message on their PHS. Please be at the ocean by nine. Even if the participants ignore the message (or are sleeping in, shame on them), as 9am approaches they will fall victim to a compulsion to head to the specified location. Three Leaders, Wolf, Rabbit, and Fox, are already present, Dorothy with them. Fox speaks. "... It's time. I'm sorry." Once they finish speaking, an alert goes off from a PHS in the crowd—specifically, Ange's. You know what to do. Regardless of their will, they will feel compelled to walk towards the scene. No other participant will be able to interfere; should they try, a barrier blocks their way.

[ Dorothy-- falls, one hand automatically grasping at her throat. It's not the cleanest slice, she's seen better, but it will do the job enough that at least she won't be drowning at the bottom of the ocean for two to three minutes.

She hits the water with a splash and sinks immediately.

There's no sign of her.

Until, rather abruptly, there is-- her head breaks the waves and from the red in the water, she's still bleeding, but not profusely enough to kill her.

Her reappearance is also followed by that of a dolphin's, and a few more, all chattering happily like they're so proud of themselves for not letting this filthy human litter their beautiful ocean.

Huh. ]

[ After... whatever that was, the barriers blocking everyone go down. Wolf, Rabbit, and Fox—who got on a boat at some point, because we said so—stand there for a few moments, as if waiting for the catch.

Everyone can go back to the shore now, at least. Looks it's over! Though... they may not want to rush back just yet.

Obligatory mention that later in the day, everyone will receive an alert for the NOVA CHECK app. Looks like weekly rankings are up! Furthermore, the Leaders will be responding to requests at the Planetarium again. ]

[ Dorothy looks... so exasperated, lifting her eyes up to the heavens. She's still bleeding, she's tired, and as she looks at Ange, then down at the dolphins--

Her grip falters and she slips right back off into the water.

It's an instinctive struggle from the look of the movements in the waves, her hand coming up once, but...

In Dorothy's struggle, the knife wound reopens.

The dolphins dive back under with squeaks and trills to each other. When they reemerge, they're bearing with them a limp body.

Dorothy Macbean is dead. ]
