Inside the cafeteria, there was an undeniable feeling of dread, or anguish over the videos. However, that feeling was overshadowed by the feeling of confidence that we'll be able to overcome it, somehow. I wasn't sure how we were going to, but sharing the videos was the only first step we have.
The three of us grabbed ourselves some breakfast, and I grabbed myself two cups of coffee as a preliminary wakeup call, and we sat down.
"Before we get started," Mia said, speaking up in a much more formal tone, "I would like to know who watched their videos, so we know who to talk to in the meeting. So just raise your hand if you've watched your video."

“But, while I was going, I heard…something.” He added.“Something? Whaddya hear?” Poppy interrogated, getting right up in Urkstin’s face, completely forgetting about her prying apology seconds before.“Ah, w-well,” Urkstin gulped, backing up as much as he could, “I heard what sounded like that metal plate beingmoved

Suddenly, a shadow started to emerge from the icy depths, and a hopefully look came across our faces. After a couple seconds, the shadow broke the surface, and revealed itself to beJoseph!… Joseph’sbody, to be exact, which had drifted its way to the surface of the water, unmoving, and frozen. The hopeful look turned itself into terrified fear as we realized that Joseph had either drowned or frozen to death, and a few of us screamed once we
