I turned around, waiting for something to happen. The nerves I felt in those short seconds, that felt like eternity, it took to snap my head back, were immeasurable. I could feel myself shaking as I let my brain drive my body. 'Maybe I'd get knocked out, perhaps whoever put their hand on my shoulder would report me. Just do something, anything!'

I felt like I couldn't take the anticipation any longer, so I pulled my right arm to me before hurling it behind me and landing it into what I supposed to be the stomach, causing the hand which held onto me to drop and grab at the offended spot.

Feeling the need to turn around, but also escape, I contemplated the better action for a second, before running off, leaving whoever was behind me chase after me. Arriving at the vent in the floor, I quickly pried it open and dropped myself into it, sealing it up behind me. 'Hah! Take that sucker!' I thought triumphantly. I waited a second longer before running off and winding my path through the underground labyrinth of vents. Finding the main stash room, I opened one of the cabinets that were to the wall and found a clean, fresh suit of my colour.

We impostors aren't really that different from 'normal' people. We also have our order and different hobbies. For example, look at our spare suit cabinets. They are devided by male and female, we have a shelf with different sizes of strap on belts and the colours are sorted by rainbow order.

I looked right, for that was where the woman's suits were, the belt straps were in the cabinet, sorted by size. Pulling out the medium sized ones, I placed it all onto a clean, wooden bench, quickly stripping myself of the clothes and discarding them in one of the laundry bins that were next to the closets. Going over to the mirror and sink in just my undergarments, I let the water run, rinsing the blood off of my hands, my face and my arms. Even my shins were slightly bloody, but that was soon gone. After cleaning myself up, I took the towel nearby and dried myself off, facing the mirror again.

After I have cleaned up, I made my way back over to the clean clothes still neatly folded on the bench. Sitting down, I grabbed the baggy suit, quickly changing into it and zipping it up. After all that was done, I grabbed the straps and fastened them around my hips, inner and outer thighs, my chest and my shoulders. I fastened them so that not only the suit would be tighter against my body, but also that you could make out my curves because that's just how girls wear their suits. Grabbing my old helmet, I grabbed the towel I used just moments before, wettened it a bit and started scrubbing the already slightly dried blood off of it.

Putting it back on, I felt a mischievous smile spread across my face. Soon, and emergency meeting was called. 'Great, that just ruined my mood!' I scoffed, looking at my beeping tablet.

I pressed the red exclamation mark, stuffing the tablet pack into the chest pocket before rushing to security to leave the vent there. I saw as green rushed past me, not noticing me crawl out of the vent as he made his way to cafeteria. I followed soon after, hot on his heels. He got a little startled, seeing me just appear next to him, but that didn't slow him down as we both entered the room, all gathering around the table. It would appear that yellow had something to say.

The way he stood on the stools attached to the table signaled that he wanted to have a word with everyone.

~ Yellow pov ~

I stood there, before everyone with anxiety gnawing at me, preparing myself mentally for what I was about to say.

"I saw cyan venting, some matter seemingly sprayed all over her, tho I couldn't determine what it was because of how dark it was, I feel confident to assume it was blood." I noticed how it got easier as I got into the flow.

Moments ago I was shaking visibly on the stools, now I proudly presenting the evidence I've gathered even if they may be false. But it's what I saw and know and I belive myself.

"Thus I also saw something slumped up on the ground, tho it was in the corner of the camera and I couldn't really see what if was, but it was also covered in whatever Cyan was covered in." I continued, almost smiling as I noticed how unwavering my voice got.

"So now that beggs the question: How did you get rid of whatever was splattered on you, and what was that I saw slumped on the floor?" I then asked accusingly, staring blankly at her.

I heard a loud GLUP come from her.
