The group walked down the long road to the library. As they did, Kassi started to cry.

"What's wrong?" said Chloe, showing complete concern on her face.

"I just can't believe what's happened!" she replied, her voice confirmed her deep grief. "First Axel was beaten to death, then Sarah w-w-was stabbed and then Jasmine was dragged screaming into the darkness! I just can't take it anymore!"

Matt held Kassi in his arms, her tears of sorrow and pain being a shared emotion in the group, the loss of their friends now becoming extremely clear to them.

"Where was Sarah's body?" thought Daniel, noticing that when they went back to the elevator, the pool of blood was there but Sarah wasn't.

"Jesus Christ, I mean I can't believe Jasmine-" Kassi started to say before Shaun interrupted.

"Jasmine isn't dead!" he shouted "She just can't be..."

"Shaun... Jasmine's dead. We just have to accept that. As we have to with Axel and Sarah too" said Daniel, the harsh reality of losing those closest to him being a very unfortunate, familiar feeling.

The group approached the library, reminiscing about their recently lost friends.

"I suppose that they're better off now..." said Daniel, his words echoing the thoughts of the rest.

As they entered the library the group saw that the damage in the main entrance wasn't too bad, smashed windows possibly being the worst thing. It was only when they looked in the main area that they saw the worst of it. Broken windows, burnt books and smashed computers. Nothing was salvageable.

"Maybe all the good stuff was taken by those cannibals who kidnapped us" said Matt.

The group exited the main area and went into the teen section, hoping they might find some bottles in the vending machine that was in there. Instead, the group found it emptied with a note attached to the front of it.

"What does it say?" asked Chloe.

"I'll read it out" replied Daniel

"If you're reading this then you've probably noticed that all the drinks have gone. I'm sorry about that but I'm going to need them for the trip ahead. As you read this, I'm going to find those people the cannibals were talking about back at the camp. Maybe they'll be able to help me save my friends and the others who are still trapped there.

If you urgently need a drink, I left one behind the counter just in case.

Well, I'm going to leave now. If I don't make it then I hope someone will help my friends.

Yours sincerely... LUNA NIGHT!!!"

"LUNA!" exclaimed Kassi, surprised at this latest turnabout.

"Oh thank god, she's still alive!" cheered Shaun, excitement in his voice.

"YAY! LUNA'S OK!!!" screamed Chloe with pure happiness "SHE'S SAFE!"

"I wonder who she's trying to find though" pondered Matt, his hand stroking his chin in curiosity "I don't remember hearing about any groups of people while we were at the camp."

"Hmmm... so do I..." said Daniel "But first we have to get back to the college I bet the others must worried about us."

"Yeah, what must Shannon be thinking?" replied Kassi, a slight grin on her face indicated that she had cheered up a bit.

"..... I'M COMING SHANNON!!!" he shouted, running out of the library in a goofy fashion.
The group's walk to the library lets their emotions pour out.
