"Th<strong>is</strong> place <strong>is</strong> going to get crowded," Griffin said.<strong>Not</strong>-Tim shook h<strong>is</strong> head. "It's Jack," he said. "He's <strong>the</strong> only one with a gun, I think." A pause. "Hewouldn't just shoot for no reason. Ei<strong>the</strong>r... someone else took h<strong>is</strong> gun, or he had a good reason to-" Hebroke off.Donnie was busy looking for an empty bottle because he really needed to go."They're probably just killing each o<strong>the</strong>r," Griffin said. "<strong>Not</strong>hing to worry about. That's exactly <strong>the</strong> kind ofthing that might get us out of here. The less united <strong>the</strong>y are, <strong>the</strong> better for us, right?"<strong>Not</strong>-Tim just looked sad.Griffin concluded that he was one strange dude; but at least he was better company than Donnie, whohad just located an empty bottle.The rest of that day passed with little event. All <strong>the</strong>y could do now was wait.**<strong>Not</strong>-Tim hoped that <strong>the</strong> door would not open in <strong>the</strong> night and crush h<strong>is</strong> head where he lay on <strong>the</strong> ground,having decided that it would not be a good idea to fight Donnie over <strong>the</strong> bed.David Allen Griffin always took <strong>the</strong> upper bunk, because according to Dharke he rules, and h<strong>is</strong> rulingmust not be questioned.<strong>Not</strong>-Tim hoped that someone would remember to feed Bob.The small desklight was on; in th<strong>is</strong> room of no windows, <strong>the</strong>re would be no daylight to d<strong>is</strong>perse <strong>the</strong> pitchblack of night. A sliver of gold illumination peeked through <strong>the</strong> bottom of <strong>the</strong> door, but that alone wasnot enough to see by.The sound of repeated bumping no<strong>is</strong>es eventually got not-Tim off <strong>the</strong> floor and over to <strong>the</strong> room's closet,where Don John was tiredly trying to get into a viable position for sleep.<strong>Not</strong>-Tim spent several moments just standing <strong>the</strong>re by <strong>the</strong> closet debating over whe<strong>the</strong>r it would be agood idea to let him out. He wanted to, but it didn't seem to be w<strong>is</strong>e to get Griffin and Donnie mad athim, especially in th<strong>is</strong> confined space.He decided that he didn't care. Don John had been stuck in <strong>the</strong>re for <strong>the</strong> crime of spoutingShakespeare at people, and he wasn't spouting Shakespeare now.<strong>Not</strong>-Tim unlocked <strong>the</strong> closet and let him out.The once-closeted was half-asleep but sufficiently alert to regard h<strong>is</strong> rescuer with suspicion."And who may you be?""A fellow pr<strong>is</strong>oner." <strong>Not</strong>-Tim gestured at <strong>the</strong> ground. "Get some sleep."He got back to h<strong>is</strong> own private spot of carpet and eventually dozed off.**The Next DayIn <strong>the</strong> real world, <strong>the</strong> news spread quickly out from <strong>the</strong> fan sites to <strong>the</strong> newspapers to <strong>the</strong> public, and arepresentative of Kenselton Facility was forced at mike-point to admit that, yeah, <strong>the</strong>y had sort of let anactor in <strong>the</strong>re, because a hostage situation had been one of <strong>the</strong> last things <strong>the</strong>y had expected, and itwas coffee break time so could he go now?"Besides," said a coffee-intolerant Kenselton staff member who took over from h<strong>is</strong> colleague, "<strong>the</strong> wholething might have been Reeves' idea, for all we know-"(Whereupon <strong>the</strong> Keanu SWAT Team went wtf do you know what a stupid r<strong>is</strong>k that would have been,seeing as how many people already want him dead?)
