2.15 - Coming Together

[Sissel walks down a corridor and ends up in the main space of college. It’s nearly empty but one table that has the Mad Tea Party currently surrounding it, not including Gary. The group are all surrounding the table, overlapping each other, with Tracey at the back looking over them.]

Vince: [concerned] We need to think of ways to protect ourselves and each other, the best idea I have is get something like a wrench or something. A bat! You know what I mean, get a weapon, just not a murder weapon. Okay, that went too far.

Leigh: [thinking] I don’t have any idea what this is telling me, is anyone good with computers? I’m not bad with computers… hey, any idea what he would use for a password? I’m kinda blanking.

Liv: [worried] If he’s going to be coming after us, we need a plan? Right? We can’t go in blind, somebody has to make a plan. If we make a plan then we should be able to get through to him. Hey, maybe we can just talk to him! That’d be nice!

Chelsea: [thinking] Vincent knows the guys schedule so it’s best that we try and get him during one of those parts. If we can’t then we’ll adjust the plan to get him when he’s isolated.

[Sissel moves up next to Tracey, who looks to him and smiles.]

Tracey: You took your time…

[Tracey looks back at the group and sighs.]

Tracey: [upset] I missed this. Good to be back.

[Sissel smiles for a moment, quickly fading.]

Leigh: [loud] Seriously, what’s the password?

Sissel: Caterpillar.

[The group all turn to see Sissel standing with them, slightly surprised. Liv looks at him and immediately back at the table.]

Sissel: He had an actual name, I can’t remember it. I think Absolem. Has someone got my notebook?

[Liv picks up his notebook from the table and chucks it over to Sissel, who catches it on his chest.]

Sissel: T-thanks.

[Sissel opens up his book to the page covered in words, quickly running his finger over the page.]

Liv: [confused] How the hell do you read that thing? We looked at it and it’s a fucking mess.

Sissel: [distracted] Yeah, I’m good with words...

[Sissel looks up to Leigh.]

Sissel: [quickly] A. B. S. O. L. E. M. Absolem.

[Leigh very quickly starts typing it into the computer, then smiles.]

Leigh: Yep, that’s it, we’re in. His “Private” folder, probably got some shit in there.

[Sissel closes the book, putting it under his arm.]

Sissel: Good, good… um… you guys have fun then.

[Sissel starts walking away from the group, Tracey looking at them. Vince quickly moves away from the table. In the distance, Gary is coming over.]

Vince: [loud] I was thinking that I should go check on Hyde, see what he’s doing and if we can get him.

[Sissel turns around as Gary gets closer.]

Vince: I’d appreciate it if you came, Cecil.

[Sissel thinks for a moment, quickly glancing at Tracey who nods. He sighs.]

Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.

Sissel: Yeah, I… I can come. Whatever you need.

[Vince smiles. Gary quickly makes it to the table, running around next to Leigh and pulling up a chair.]

Leigh: [with Chelsea] Hey man.

Chelsea: [with Leigh] Hi Gary.

[Gary waves for a second, getting comfortable and then looking to the group.]

Gary: So… Liv texted me saying that we’re all going to die. Apparently.

Sissel: [tired] Liv…

Liv: [defensively] What? We’re all in danger! You said he’s gonna try to kill us!

Sissel: [defensively] Yeah, I didn’t think that included Gary!

Tracey: Does Gary have a power?

[Sissel shakes his head slightly, Vince noticing.]

Liv: [defensively] Don’t you dare start-

Sissel: [defensively] I wasn’t starting anything!

[Chelsea quickly moves around to them.]

Chelsea: Can we not do this? Please? You don’t have to like each other, just… keep it to yourselves.

[Sissel nods, Liv eventually nods. Tracey looks to Sissel, worried.]

Tracey: [upset] Sissel?

Sissel: We, um… me and Vince are gonna go to Hyde.

[Sissel quickly starts to move around, Vince following by his side.]

Vince: Gary, you wanna come?

[Gary starts laughing.]

Gary: [laughing] Fuck no, I’m not getting a knife to my throat. Nah, um…

[Gary turns to Leigh, quickly taking the laptop away from him.]

Gary: I got this, I’m good with computers.

[Vince nods a bit.]

Vince: Well… see you soon then.

[Vince turns and starts walking off, Sissel following behind him. As Sissel walks out of earshot from the group, Tracey reappears next to him.]

Tracey: [upset] Seriously, Sissel.

Sissel: [upset] Not now.

Vince: Pardon?

Tracey: [upset] You and Liv, what is going on?

[Sissel looks at Tracey, looking at the ground. Vince looks at Sissel and frowns.]

Vince: You okay, man?

Sissel: [upset] I… I blamed Liv…

Vince: Yeah, I know-

Sissel: [annoyed] I’m talking to Tracey.

Vince: [concerned] Oh… right… hi Tracey?

[Sissel glares at Vince.]

Vince: [defensively] Hey, I’m trying to support.

[Sissel turns away from Vince, looking at Tracey. She’s visibly very upset.]

Tracey: [upset] Why-

Sissel: [upset] I don’t know… Really, I don’t. In my head, it made sense, but…

[Sissel sighs and looks down, Tracey looking at him.]

Tracey: [upset] When are you going to fix it?

[Sissel looks up at Tracey and scoffs.]

Sissel: I… blamed her for your death. You don’t get forgiven for that.

[Sissel turns back to look at Vince, but he’s gone.]

Sissel: [confused] Where did Vince go?

Tracey: He left when you said you were talking to me.

Sissel: Which way did he go?

Tracey: Probably after Mr Hyde.

[Sissel sighs and quickly starts running off.]

Sissel: [loud] Come on!

[Tracey starts to follow after, the two making it out of the corridor.]
