Day 75: Intercom, Dinner

With how the number of patients had dwindled lately, the day passed on without much note, save for one sedation that had happened early on. Which meant that soon enough, the intercom came on yet again, this time to announce the day's end.

"Hello, dear patients. I know a lot of your friends have been sent home lately, and maybe some of you are missing them." Was this a referral to that one patient's outburst that morning? Who knew.

"But instead of worrying about them, you should think of yourselves! There aren't many of you enrolled here right now, which means each one of you gets more of our attention. Before long, all of you will be headed back to your friends and family too. Maybe you can even meet up with some of your fellow patients after you're released -- wouldn't that be nice?"

Of course, Landel wasn't referring to the sort of homecoming that the patients wanted. Nice as it sounded in the daytime, the truth was something far more sinister.

"For now, enjoy some dinner with your roommates! Tonight we're serving spaghetti and garlic bread -- a popular choice, I would think. Have a nice meal."

And with that, the intercom shut off and the nurses gathered up the patients to take them to their rooms.

That meant that every night, there was a chance that one of them (or both of them) wouldn't be here the next morning. Sora had been here so long that the idea of being caught in Landel's trap seemed almost impossible. He'd held out for months now -- he could keep it up for a little longer.

"Well, for now we're both still here. We'd better make the best of that, right?" Sora rushed to finish his dinner so he could start getting ready for the night ahead of them.

Link nodded, putting on a small smile for Sora before shoveling down a portion of his food.

"Tonight, we'll finish him." Time was of the essence, and they were running out of it. Now, though, with the resources and information they had gathered, Link was convinced that it was possible. They needed to find the man himself, and finish him. The thought made him pause, both mentally and in his eating.

It was so easy, to condemn the man to death.

Link sounded so certain of it. Sora wanted to feel the same way, but it seemed like there were still so many obstacles in the way.

He finished off his plate of food, reminding himself that holding onto hope and faith that they could get this done was the only way that they would win. If they believed they'd stop Landel, it would make it that much more possible.

"Right," he agreed despite any misgivings, standing from his seat so that he could get changed before the lights turned off.
