day two - aftermath

dreamland day two




38 players remaining.


As the voting period comes to an end, a bell goes off from the ticket machine, and the metal bars blocking the tunnel at the end of the Hall of Mirrors lifts. A voice speaks over the loudspeaker:
"Attention, guests! Please make your way onto the ride! For your safety, keep your hands and arms inside and do not attempt to leave your seat!"

Through the tunnel, single cars on a track stop and wait for each remaining player to step on. Don't dawdle, or your bracelet will begin to beep a warning. Once in a car, the safety bar locks you tightly inside, unable to move.

The car trundles along a dark, twisting track, nearly veering into cartoonish obstacles, but veering away at the last moment. Music and cackling laughter echoes loudly through the ride as you drive faster and faster. Suddenly, your car veers off to the left, through a courtroom, where a towering cartoon judge threatens to bang a gavel. Your car jerks and evades, but somewhere, before one car can pass, the gavel comes down and the car spins off to the side, through a dark doorway.

Each car comes to the end of the ride, but doesn't stop, and instead jerks into motion and, even faster, veers through the ride a second time. This time, your car does not enter the courtroom, but the doors to your left nonetheless open, showing instead of a courtroom a red room burning with cartoon flames. Above the flames hangs a corpse in a noose.

The body of Levi hangs from a white rope noose, as a cackling voices pronounces: Innocent

The ride turns away once more, and comes to a stop. A list of votes has been pinned on the wall for your perusal. You now have the rest of the evening to explore the park, before night comes again.

[Kurapika's already done the whole "punching something" thing, but at least his hand is wrapped up now.]

I know. Do you think I wanted him to die? I don't know what to believe anymore... You can't trust anybody.

Of course not. He had me too, but his intention was honest, up until the end.

...

We can't keep playing this. Playing means killing more people, for regular guests AND VIPs. If we want this to stop, everyone needs to trust each other so that the VIPs can outnumber through conversion without more deaths.

How can we be so sure? That his intentions were honest? Why did he trust that note when nobody else did? I still feel as if I was being lied...

And what was that about researching Yuya... It doesn't sit right with me.

[He shakes his head.] We don't know what happens when the VIPs win, do we?

Because he's a soldier. A captain, to be precise. You know what that means? That means wherever he's from, he's used to being responsible for many, many lives, or at least, he'd know already how that would feel.

We were lied to for that detective's sake. Levi was a regular guest, this means that if the note turned out false and Legion isn't VIP, he'd be the one to receive the backlash.

...

We don't, but the game should end. The rulebook didn't say more.

He should have made sure it was the real detective first. None of us bought that note, and for good reason. Anybody could have written it--it was too obvious.

[That's all Kurapika has to say, he's still upset over it all. Over what Levi did and how he felt lied to. And for what? Nothing.]

The game mentions a "death round" too. Or have you forgotten?

No. You're just upset - all of you are just upset, because he lied. I don't know what he's thinking, but I know his reasons now. It's precisely this crippling need of "being sure" from you guys that pushed him to lie and force a push. So he stood up and made a scapegoat of himself, and that's exactly what he's become, for all of our insecurities and all our failures.

...

What's there to remember? It's not like we have any hints about how that thing could get triggered.

You call it a crippling need, and yet you're one of the only ones who refuses to vote anything but "no one", Sigma. [The words are surprisingly harsh.]

If Levi's claim--when some of us believed it--wasn't enough for you, what will be?

I don't just wanna find out who're the VIPs. I want to know why they're doing it. What makes them lie to us under broad daylight, what's so high at stake that they HAVE to give it their all and keep playing no matter how many more people die.

[ I know I've voted no one, and I don't regret it. But I do I probably can't keep this up forever, if things keep going the way they have... ]

We can ask them that once we've cornered them. Right now, we don't have that kind of time. Each day we waste, more people are going to die. That includes me, and you.

But just because we've both been lucky so far, doesn't mean we shouldn't be trying to end this as soon as possible.
