Group A: Conor, John C, Johnny U, Nelson, Paul, Tod, Jesse, Kip, <strong>the</strong> cornflakes guy+ Group E"...Were you in Kenselton Hotel?" Paul asked, after a period of stony silence in which Ludlow and Johnappeared locked in some sort of staredown."Yeah," Ludlow said, not removing h<strong>is</strong> gaze from John. "Block L, 29th floor. You?""Block F, 4th floor."Tod laughed. "They ran out of space-"People stared at him. He shut up. Nelson muttered something about how <strong>the</strong>y should have done thatearlier and saved him <strong>the</strong> uncomfortable humiliation of sleeping on <strong>the</strong> floor."How long have you been here?" Conor asked as Ludlow released an increasingly p<strong>is</strong>sed-off John fromh<strong>is</strong> glare and started walking towards <strong>the</strong> fire."Five days. Wouldn't have lasted one if that squid hadn't tried to attack us."And now <strong>the</strong>y saw that <strong>the</strong> source of <strong>the</strong> fire was not firewood, but a merrily burning tentacled monsterwith too many eyes."Flammable things," Ludlow continued . "They catch fire when <strong>the</strong>y die. Some kind of post-humous selfdefence.Ortiz found out <strong>the</strong> hard way."The fire had been started right next to <strong>the</strong> cave wall, such that its flames licked up <strong>the</strong> stone and heatedup a series of narrow ledges, on which several dead f<strong>is</strong>h were being slowly cooked. Near it, a group offive or six teenagers were staring suspiciously at <strong>the</strong> newcomers. One turned h<strong>is</strong> head and mutteredsomething at <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>rs. They continued staring suspiciously at <strong>the</strong>m, and one leapt to h<strong>is</strong> feet as Todreached out a tentative hand to <strong>the</strong> f<strong>is</strong>h."That's ours," <strong>the</strong> teen said, and Tod reluctantly withdrew h<strong>is</strong> hand."Th<strong>is</strong> has gotta have been planned," Johnny said to no one in particular."What?" asked Eric."Both groups of us end up in <strong>the</strong> same place within walking d<strong>is</strong>tance of each o<strong>the</strong>r, just four days apart.What are <strong>the</strong> chances it's a coincidence?""*hungry*," vibed <strong>the</strong> cornflakes guy, but no one was paying attention to him. He felt sad. He m<strong>is</strong>sednot-Tim. <strong>Not</strong>-Tim looked after him. <strong>Not</strong>-Tim understood him and didn't ignore him. ":(," he concluded."There might've just been a small pool of possible destinations," Conor said.Ludlow snorted. "If you're hoping for rescue, you can forget it. No one knows where we are, thanks to<strong>the</strong> fucking morons who kidnapped that actor and got us all into th<strong>is</strong> shit.""Hey, that's-" Tod started, <strong>the</strong>n stopped and stumbled back in pain when Johnny and Conor kicked himto shut him up."At least we're free now," Johnny pointed out.
