In the small interval of time waiting for a response, get out of the computer chair and approach the hotel room's door: locking it. And afterwards returning to the computer chair once again, retrieving your colt and it's silencer, attaching the silencer, furthermore turning off the safety. Ready to fire upon anyone filled with sarcastic rage from walrus references.

Sean turns on the computer, then goes and cleans himself up. He finds that he is already equipped for colder weather, as he is wearing a Winterized Jacket over his normal clothes.

Unfazed by the setback, Dalton sets to work. He begins typing away, and in under a minute he not only has administrator privileges, but Dalton has broken his way into the main server of the hotel, giving him control over the entire network and all connected systems.

While Dante is waiting for a response, he walks over and locks his room's door and grabs his handgun, twisting on the suppressor and flipping off the safety. When he returns to the computer, there's a response.

>>You're in my network.
>>My domain.
>>That is how you are relevant.
>>Duh.

Dalton: If what room a particular computer is in is distinguishable, take a particular interest in room 301's computer. Check for any documents written by the word processor. Try to either open them or download them to this room's computer. Also see if there's a chat history log, and if so, download/open it. After that, check what's on anything that might appear to be "important", IE any sort of hotel office computer, or the hotel reception desk computer if one exists.

If individual computers aren't distinguishable by their location, just download/open all available word processor files to my computer, as well as any available chat history logs (again, if such a thing exists).

"Let's see if this 'Shady' gal lives up to her name. Heh-heh."

Dalton congratulates himself on what he knows was an awesome pun.

Grab your colt along with the dried fruit snacks, and take a seat on the couch. "Relaxing" in paranoia from the tempered domain owner.

With a plethora of information at Dalton's fingertips, there's no limit to what he could do. Every single file and program were at his command; he could do anything! The power was almost palpable as Dalton moved his hands to the keyboard.

Unfortunately, just as he began to type, the screen turned to black. A few seconds later, text appeared on the screen.

>>I take back what I said.

With that, the screen returns to normal.

Dalton: With curiosity blue-balls, decide to not let all of this be for nothing. Try to search for the word "Shady", on chats or word files. If that's not possible, go check the backpack and gun and assure everything is in order. Then, unfurl the bed's blanket to make sure there's no dust on it and no critters underneath it, and go to bed.

**ApocalypseVVolf.** 9th October 2012, 2:43 am

Dante: That's going to be awkward tomorrow. I probably shouldn't have been such an edgy douche.

Log off the computer and enter the bathroom inside the bedroom, and extinguish any available hygienic options. Afterwards, if you haven't already: remove a fraction of your clothes, leaving your undergarments to separate yourself from whatever lies on the bed. On completion of changing, approach the bedroom closet and suspend your clothes on the remaining hangers. Averting your attention to the bedroom safe and enter the combination 02-01-2-08, placing your entire inventory inside excluding the wind-resistant lighter.

[Colt 1911A1 (Silenced), 40 rounds of .45 ACP, 348 caps, Rad-X (80), 1 canister of butane, Bible w/compartment , "pen" knife, colt slide.] > [Safe]

Migrate over to the bedroom's pile of logs, removing a few to be placed into the fireplace. Use your lighter and any available flammable material (Stationeries, toilet paper.) as an assistant to begin the fire. After the fire is properly stoked, go to the bed and ruffle the pillows & sheets. Finally, slide under the covers and get a good night's rest.

**KGBOOM** 9th October 2012, 1:18 pm

Sean: All cleaned up, he detaches the holster from his belt and sets it (including the USP.45) on the desk next to the terminal. He then accesses the Terminal's chat client to monitor the chatter silently whilst taking notes on said chatter.

After the encounter with... whoever that was, Dalton continues his search for any information on Shady. However, his search turns out no results. Upon further inspection, Dalton can find no record of a terminal in room 301.

Sighing, Dalton leaves the terminal and, after checking on his gear, heads to bed.

Before getting ready for bed, Dante places all of his possession except for the lighter in the room's safe. Dante then cleans himself up and lights the fireplace, then goes to bed.

"I told them this is a rad hound breeding ground when the last one came. There aren't any hounds though; just me. And Them. And now you. You should go. It's almost night, They'll be here soon." The barrel is removed from the back of Isaac's neck, who turns around to find the man that held him hostage looks to be no more than 16. His black hair is matted and clumping in places, and his pale skin is covered in dirt and dried blood.

His thin coat has been torn to hell by what could only have been hands.

Sean: He stands up and walks over to the bed, taking his pistol with him. He tucks the gun under the pillow and lies there, awake. Not sleeping. Just staring at the ceiling. Yup. Definitely a great ceiling. Just dandy. After a few seconds of ceiling staring action, he sits up and fires one round into the terminal.

"They were my friends. Now they're different. They'll be here soon, you have to go. I..." the teenager looks towards the back of the shop. "I have to go. Sorry." With that, he knees Isaac in the stomach, shoving him over. He steps over Isaac and walks out through the backdoor.

Sean lays down on his bed to think. After a few seconds he sits back up, drawing his handgun and squeezing off a round into the terminal in one smooth motion. CONVENIENTLY, THE WALLS ARE WELL INSULATED, SO NOBODY HEARS.

The night turns to day, and the sun rises feebly into the sky. Those members of the group in the hotel wake up, with the exception of Sean, whom did not sleep at all, refreshed and ready for the day.

Isaac, however, wakes up lying on the floor of the library with a headache from being bitch slapped with a handgun. He staggers to his feet and looks around, finding he is alone in the library.

Isaac checks, but it seems the man didn't take anything from him. Afterwards he checks the library for valuables, but all the books he checks are blank. Isaac finds nothing that would be worth taking.

KGBOOM wrote:Sean: Jumps off the bed, holstering his pistol. He heads down to the lobby, intent on finding something to eat.

Sean leaves his room, heading downstairs in search of food. He asks the clerk, who at the moment is Annie. "Sorry, we don't serve food. You could try the Trading Post."

Simon wakes up and, after cleaning himself up, joins Sean in his search for food, accompanying him to the Trading Post. Jamen Yuen is at the counter.

Head to the bathroom to perform the morning rituals such as washing your face, urinating, et cetera. Afterwards, go to the kitchenette open one of the cans of beans that were placed on the counter the past night. Use any available cooking device to heat up the beans; or with no options the small fireplace in the bedroom. After the cooking process, take a seat on the living room's couch and begin eating the beans.
