[7:47 AM; Sunday, 30th of April, 2024]
Lisa Scofield gave a heavy sigh as soon as she shut the door behind her.
A conflicted expression played on her face, but she tightened it so her expression depicted a frown that distorted her charming look.
'It's for the best. It's what everyone decided.'
Lisa knew within herself that she could never have made such a horrific decision by herself. The truth was that she had been in telepathic contact with her friends throughout the ti she was with Mikey.
She had also told them of her thoughts, and they unanimously agreed on the current decision she had to undertake. Lisa had to wonder if it was ideal to do so, but she also knew the odds of survival if she didn't take this path.
'Besides… that 'Guiding Thought' has never been wrong, has it?'
Ever since she awakened her abilities and went through her Status Window, she had been privy to the thoughts of many people in the hotel. She had witnessed how many of them died, thanks to their dying thoughts.
For those who lived, she was able to sense their location and also hear how scared they were. It was extrely frightening for her too. She actually thought she would die, surrounded by so much noise and death.
That is… until she heard the 'Guiding Thought'
She was still unsure of the identity of the voice, but the thought was there to comfort her. It told her everything was going to be okay, and then it told her what to do.
It taught her how to use her Skill to communicate with those around her, and use them as bait to distract the Demons in her vicinity. That was how she was able to escape them and reach the first floor where she t Mikey
Back when the Demon was pounding on the door, almost grabbing the attention of more of its kind, she had appealed to it for help. It was the one that told her to convince another survivor to co out of their suite, thus distracting the Demon and allowing it to leave theirs alone.
Her survival thus far was all thanks to the Guiding Thought, and it was its wise advice that gave her the strength to do what was necessary. Even the groundwork for her current plan was all thanks to it.
'I still don't know who they are, but…' Lisa decided to put off her thoughts of Mikey, and all her regrets, and simply focus on the job she had to do.
First things first… she had to use her actual Skill.
""
In an instant, she was able to connect to all four of her friends.
"Okay, guys. I've secured him. I'll use my ability to sense the presence of the incoming Demons and guide you so you can make it to this room safely. Rember the plan. Follow everything as detailed as possible."
The static in her head ford voices, and the relieved sounds of her friends echoed.
~For real? Sweet!~ One cried out, obviously masculine.
~You did great, Lisa. Thank you so much!~ Another voice, more sullen and calm echoed in her head.
~We can finally leave this place. Thank Goodness…~ Yet another friend's fleeting thought was heard.
~Thanks, Lisa. We're counting on you.~ The last of them responded.
For a mont, Lisa paused and listened to their replies. A smile of relief ford on her face, until she finally heaved a heavy sigh.
"Alright, then. Let us begin."
Her mission was simple, yet complex. The lives of her friends were hanging in the balance, and she was their only hope—their guide.
'I have to do this! No mistakes allowed!'
As heartless as she could be to strangers, she could be just as loving to the small circle that mattered to her.
'Lorna. Lily. Ka… and Jake. Don't you worry! I'll definitely protect you!'
In the end, as long as she and her loved ones survived this madness… that was all that mattered.
