Hey, sorry it's been so long everyone, just feeling a little under the weather, nothing serious.

Oh, I was wondering, if someone could explain a little more to me about this, um, Struggle sport...thing? It sounds like fun...

And hey, Zuko, you finally feeling better?

[The camera wobbles first toward the floor, then the ceiling, and finally shows Jackie, staring half annoyed, and half amused at something on her right side. She rolls her eyes, and then makes eye contact with the camera before speaking.]

Does anyone out there, by any chance have-

[But her sentence is cut off before she can finish.]

MY BOOOOOOX!!!!!

[and then Kid on his knees hugging what's left of the box and crying into the carpet]

[Jackie is silent for a second, and a hand comes up to rub her temples in exasperation. This time, most of the amusement is gone from her tone, and it's clear she is beginning to get a headache.]

Kid, it's just a box...we'll find a new one, alright?

My box is dead... I've murdered it... it's so pathetic, and unsymmetrical, and... and dead! I have no more home... I AM PATHETIC AND HOMELESS!

You're not homeless. We're in the apartment right now!

[and just him crying]

[She takes a deep breath, and again her hands go to her temples before she turns back to the camera, a look of desperation in her eyes.]

If anyone has a box that they'd be willing to part with, uh..a SYMMETRICAL one, it would be very. VERY. Appreciated.

[The view is obscured by an arm, and then switched off]

Zuko's been gone for way too long, I'm going to go looking for him. If anyone knows something about where he went, please let me know.

( [Private to Friends] )

[ooc:Friends=anyone she talks to on a regular basis.]

I...uh...I apologize to anyone who saw that video. I shouldn't have...[she coughs and trails off.]
Anyway, sorry guys. I hope I didn't upset anyone...

Is everyone okay? There was a lot going on, and I don't know why I didn't do more to find out before...or help anyone...or want to help anyone...

Does anyone know why so many people were acting so weird?

( [Locked to Friends] )

( [Locked to Black☆Star] )

[ooc: So Jackie just woke up from being dead, and doesn't know that she died. lol Anyone feel free to explain to her. Friends means anyone she has talked to more than once...excluding Muraki...l-lol. Also, since about half of Discedo is in the hospital right now, comment logs welcome from anyone~ ]

[The video feed turns on, and the image shakes, making it obvious that the person holding it is moving. After a minute of the angle shifting around, the device is placed on the ground at a set angle, though the video feed is slightly blurred by several dark red streaks that obscure the camera's lens.

If anyone tries to see past the red smudges, they will make out Jackie's figure lying on the ground in what looks to be an uncomfortable position. Her face is not visible from this angle of the camera, but what is visible is telling enough.

There are spots of splattered blood along her side, and ugly dark bruises on her arms, visible because her sleeves have been pushed up to the elbows. Her right arm is cradled near her chest, and is twisted at an angle that shouldn't be possible to reach.

Most notable is the blood seeping through the thin cloth of the front of her shirt, broken only by two small pearl white twig like tips protruding from the middle of the bloodstain.

Her chest rises and falls irregularly and with much difficulty, and a very quiet whimper might be heard if anyone has a good enough ear. Her breathing is a little more audible, and comes in excruciatingly slow sporadic shudders.

After a few seconds, she attempts to speak, though nothing comes out but a choked gurgle, followed by a louder whimper this time.

Finally, she manages a few broken words.]

...think...I need...doctor...

hurts...

...guys...please...I...

[Silence besides the continued sounds of shuddered strained breathing.]

[So this is backdated to Friday morning, Jackie having dragged herself away from this on Thursday night, and found a corner to curl up in. She may respond to some until a point.]

Anyone up for a walk, or to hang out?

I haven't been up to much lately, and thought it would be nice to get out.

It's been a while...and Maka, I'm sorry I never checked in with you when I got back during the fog. Things got pretty hectic.

This is a little late, but, how did everyone do during that mess? Everyone alright?
Zuko, are your injuries healing alright?

Seifer, Utena, I really owe you two. Thanks for helping me out of that mess. I'm not sure I would have done too well on my own.

( [Private to Shibusen] )

[ooc:tags will be slow...lots of school work. Sorry guys >_<]

[The feed flickers on with a short length of static, and then you can hear Jackie clearing her throat to talk. When she does, she sounds somewhat apologetic.]

Hey guys, I'm sorry for not contacting anyone sooner. I've had a hard time getting back, but Seifer came to find me. I, ah, should be back soon...hopefully...

"We'll figure it out... just gotta get past these things."

[Her response is slightly muffled as she's facing Seifer, and not the communicator.]

Yeah, it looks like most of them are behind us now, we can probably make it from here on without them seeing us.

"Yeah, let's just... move faster, alright?"

No objections here...

[The sounds of footsteps taking off at a pretty quick speed can be heard]

I think we finally lost them...Seifer, do you see-[Her question is cut off by a piercing shriek, and the sound of the communicator being dropped onto the floor. After a moment, the sounds of scuffling echo through the device.]

“This way, Move it!”

[The sounds of footsteps continue until another scream brings the steps to a sudden stop. Then there’s the sound of a large body hitting another, and a wet tearing noise. After a few more seconds of this, another thumping sound is heard, and Jackie yells,]

I don’t think so!

[This is followed by several thunking and squealing sounds, and then finally…]

SEIFER, COME ON!

[Some muttering is heard and then a sigh.]

Uh, hey...I seem to have gotten a little turned around in all this fog, and I know I probably shouldn't have come out but I was trying to visit-

[Her words are cut off by a thump and some grumbled cursing on her part, accompanied by the sounds of her getting off of the ground.]

Uh, sorry about that, I just tripped on this...

[A heavy silence follows.]

Never mind, I'll make my way home on my own. I think I'm almost there.

[The communicator switches off with an audible 'click.']

Hey guys...I know I've been pretty quiet lately, so I just wanted to see how everyone is doing. Everyone is still doing alright, I hope?

Um, I was also thinking, Tsubaki, and Black*Star, would either of you be interested in training sometime this week? It's going to be a bit longer before I get my chip out, so I thought it'd be a good time to start.

( [Private to Dr. Muraki] )

( [Private to Kid] )

( [Private to Zuko] )

[ooc: so uh, yeah, excuse for Hiatus is that Jackie has been not dealing well with the reality that is Discedo since Zuko's death. She probably just isolated herself in the apartment, and hasn't spoken much to anyone. She's much better now due to several talks with Kid. <3]

( [Locked to Kid] )

[ooc: Semi-hackable.]

I've found a doctor to remove my chip, and I have a few questions about the process.

I heard from a friend that there are severe side effects from chip removal. One of them being losing control of any powers. I'm not so worried about getting sick, which I've heard happens, but I'm not quite sure about the loss of control. Does this happen to everybody? If someone could just explain to me in a bit more detail, I would really appreciate it.

And also, is it normal to make a recovery after the removal, and then fall sick again? I'm concerned about Zuko...

( [Private to Friends] )

( [Private to Doctor Muraki] )

[The video comes on facing Jackie. She's sitting with her legs crossed, somewhere just outside of Latimir. There is a curious mix of frustration and serenity on her features, and her gaze is focused on several black butterflies as they flutter around her general vicinity. Her eyes follow one in particular as it makes its way back and forth though the air. After a moment, she turns to face the video, the hint of a smile on her face, though whether it is genuine or not remains to be seen.]

You know...they're kind of pretty if you don't touch them.

[She continues to follow them with her eyes, but then turns to the camera once again, curiosity evident in her voice.]

I was just wondering...I hear a lot of different languages over this thing. Anyone know what the most common language spoken here is?

Seriously, acid rain? What is with this place?

I was just wondering if this kind of thing has happened before. Or happens often...
Is there anything else that happens regularly? Tsunamis? Spontaneous combustion? Anything?

I've barely been here a month and I'm just so sick of this place. Is this sort of thing caused by the scientists too? If it is...I already wanted to kill them for the way they play God, but this would just make it so much worse...

Oh, and Tsubaki, Black Star. I know I've talked to both of you about training somehow, but things keep happening that get in the way of going outside...is there any place that you know of where we might be able to train indoors? I just don't think this city is ever going to make it convenient for us, so we might as well go ahead...

One last note, a friend of mine just got here, and she arrived right in the middle of all of this. I think she's okay right now, but if anyone notices a short blonde girl running around outside, please help her out. Her name is Patti.

Hey everyone, just wanted to minimize the confusion, and let everyone know that from now on, they can call me Jacqueline. There seem to be multiple "Jackies" here, and I figured this would just make things easier. I'll still answer to Jackie and all, but if anyone is having trouble, I thought this would make it a lot less confusing.

( Private to Shibusen Students )

Current Location: Horton

The screen flickers on to reveal nothing but the faint outline of a shadow standing near what seems to be a building, though which building it is, is entirely indistinguishable due to the overwhelming darkness. The camera seems to be swaying in Jackie's hand, making it obvious that she is unaware that it has been turned on. She stands with her back pressed against the building, her eyes staring out into the darkness with a slightly glazed over look. The camera tilts in her hand when her fingers clench into a fist, and she tries to sink further into the wall at her back.

A nearly silent whining noise escapes her, and she looks startled that the sound escaped, shaking her head back and forth as though denying it. With a deep sigh, she shakes her head once again, this time uttering a few quiet words to herself.

Get a hold of yourself Jacqueline, it's just the dark. There's nothing to be afraid of. You've been through this before, and there isn't any good reason to be afraid...

She repeats the words and variations of the mantra over to herself, and eventually the blackness of the sky and surroundings become the blackness of an empty screen as the video shuts off with an audible 'click'.

[ooc: this takes place after Jackie has left Latimir, and is presumably (?) staying with, er, the other Jackie, and Nill in Horton. She has a not-so-secret-anymore fear of the dark due to the fact that she IS a lantern.]

[ The sounds of clicking and a few extra buttons being pressed can be heard as Jackie fiddles with the communicator.]

Sorry about the noise everyone, I'm still trying to get the hang of this thing.
[The noise stops, and the voice continues in an even tone.]

Hey, my name is Jacqueline, but I would prefer if people called me Jackie.
I just got here and it seems like I picked a really bad time to show up...but I thought I should introduce myself. I know there's a lot going on right, and even though I'm very new, if there's anything I can do to help anywhere, I'd be glad to.

Also, I've been hearing a lot about the scientists, and I was wondering if anyone could give me more information on them. Everyone seems to have only bits of information on them, and it's driving me crazy having so little information on the ones who put us all here.

Thanks

[Private to Death City Crew]

I know I've already said this to some of you, but I wanted to thank you all for helping me to settle in here. Maka, Soul, Tsubaki and Black☆Star especially.

It's really weird, and somewhat unnerving being here without Kim, and...

[She stops for a moment, taking a deep breath before continuing.]

And I'm really grateful to all of you for helping me not to panic, and to understand what was going on.
It just proves to me how amazing Shibusen really is, and reminds me why I'm proud to be part of a group made up of such reliable and trustworthy individuals. Even among all of this chaos, all of you were sure to take care of a friend, and I really appreciate it.

Thanks everyone.

Ugh...

[There is nothing but the sound of the groan for a few seconds, and an image of black across the screen. After some sounds of shuffling, and a few more groans, the image blurs until it focuses on the face of a girl with a pair of light brown eyes. The eyes stare inquisitively at the screen, and then the image blurs and flickers once more as the device is shaken back and forth.]

Okay...what...?

[The figure drops the device to her side so that the screen catches a glimpse of the blue and white school uniform she is wearing, and her voice sounds far away.]

Those buildings don't look like anything I've ever seen in Death City...so where the hell am I?

[The figure begins to walk forward, first at a slow pace, and then gradually begins walking faster until she is in a jog.]

Hello? Kim? Harvar?...Where did everyone go?...Where is this?

[ A nervous tone enters the voice as her jog turns into a slow run.]

Hello?!
