OutLast: A Different Story

Other Plans?

Original Time Post: September 25th, 2015

Miles: Good. In 3, 2, 1, Jump! (Miles jumped across the gap successfully along with Artemis. The pressure of them jumping was clearly affecting the floor so Miles got up fast, clasped Artemis' hand in his and ran forward towards the next gap)

Artemis: Shit! (She widen her green orbs as she felt the floor beginning to give out, until she felt Miles grab her hand, pulling her with him towards the exit sign.)

Miles: (Clasping her hand, Miles jumped across another of the large gaps. There was one final gap before they could reach the stable floors and the exit.) Okay, just one more! Let's go! (Miles and Artemis sprinted towards the gap before jumping. However the gap proved to be too big and they held onto the end of the wooden plank as it seemed to crumble down against their pressure)

Miles: Shit! (Miles cursed before throwing his camcorder towards the safer side but the plank there seemed to fall and down went his camera.) No...! Goddamn it! Artemis, get up fast! (Miles climbed up at the nick of the time and pulled Artemis into his arms before crawling backwards as he watched the rest of the wood fall down into the dark abyss.)

Artemis: (She held on for dear life as she watched the camera zip past her and curses under her breath as she tried to catch it, but it went far out of her reach. She then heard Miles yell to get up fast, which she does, but only to be brought into his arms as they got onto the wooden part that was stable enough to support them. She gave out shaky breaths as she turned her head enough to see the other side, but looked down, seeing the hole the camera fell threw.) Miles, the camcorder...

Miles: Hell! It's pitch black in here and without the night vision we can't see anything. Looks like we need to go all the way down into this dark abyss and find it. Do you want to stay with me or just sit down here till I come back?

Artemis: (she thought for a moment, fear almost over taking her. she didn't wanna leave him alone, not after the moment they had earlier, but her ankle was beginning to hurt again, but not as bad as before. She made up her mind quickly and says) I'm going with you. It's best not to separate.

Miles: Okay, then. But be careful. We don't have the night-vision anymore. If your ankle hurts bad again, tell me... I could carry you like last time.

Artemis: (she nodded as she looked down into the abyss) I'll be careful. We just gotta use-wait. (She reached into her pocket and examined her phone.) please let the light work at least. (She pressed on the on button and a blank white screen showed up, but nothing more then that. She mentally cheered at herself) we have a light, but we still need that camcorder for the evadience and the battery on this thing could die within 30 minutes.

Miles: Wow, your phone is faithful for real. I hope my precious camera is like your phone too. (Miles joked before climbing down the wooden planks and entering the lowest of the floor. Using the phone's flashlight, they went searching for the camera. After climbing down another of the floors, they turned around and found that there were patients sitting around in despair. Miles just hoped that they were not in the mood of becoming violent. Just as he thought so, the variant in front of them stood up and charged towards them, pushing Miles onto the ground before running away.)

Artemis: (Artemis backed up a bit as the man charged forward, but felt nothing. She opened her eyes to see the man run out and Miles on the floor.) Jesus! Are you alright? (She asked with concern in it as she bent down to help him up.)

Miles: Yeah... I'm fine. (Miles got up.) Looks like there will be more variants here. Let's get going. (After moving around for a bit, Miles finally caught the sight of something shiny.) Hey, Artemis, direct your flashlight towards that... (He pointed towards the object, while moving towards it.)
