Hearing the tape make a long screeching sound that was oddly like a cat was dying. She hit the eject button. Pulling out the tape and giving it a good look over, she seemed to come to a decision. Turning to the left, she picked up a sheet of stickers. This particular one was orange circles. Pulling one off, she placed it onto the 'spine' of the tape, marking it as half corrupted. Walking out of the unsorted isle, she turned to the right of the room, (her left, I go by where the door is in a room, so if it says something like right of the room, it means the right if you are standing in the entrance doorway and looking in. If it says turned right, then that means the person turned right. Just so you know.). A sign on the wall read, N-Z. Walking down the aisle marked S, she came to a section named 'Starfall Victoria Perdita-Dreaming'. Like many of the other sections she had walked past, this one was mostly empty having only a handful of tapes, most of them with damaged cases. Placing the tape in its correct spot, she updated her internal library with its new location and status. Marking it as one of Star's few playable ones, with entries on one side and a mash of messed up recordings on the other.


Oddly enough, Star's was mostly just recordings of the area surrounding her. She would have the recorder in her room, which she very rarely left, and have it set to auto record her every two days at random times. Very rarely, if ever, did she actually talk during them. No one but her actually knew where the recorder was, or if it was even recording. At least, not until she went offline. It was sad, what happened to her. After what she went through. She might have even had it worse than her brother, and that's saying something.


Feeling the pull once more, she let them over take her. Feeling herself being pulled under. She waited for the first one to start playing.
