You are stuck in a cage, half submerged in water and slowly sinking. Looking around, you're in a pool, where another person is in the same perdicament as you. The pool is inside a building with no windows and one door with a someone standing in front of it. Ready. Set. GO! | ||

What kind of cage is it? Are there any doors or windows on the cage? Describe the other person. Talk to them. | ||

It's a shark cage. The kind you see on tv made of metal bars and the top lifts open. It's locked. The other person is a female, late teens to early 20's. Her cage is the same, but hers is more submerged than yours. You try to get her attention, but she only shakes her head. The person by the door shouts no talking then fiddles with something in his hand. Your cage drops an inch causing the water to go up to your knees. | ||

Ulp. I suppose we wouldn't happen to know sign language, would we? If we do, try signing to the man, and the other woman. Are we HAM? HAF? Other? What are we wearing? Any pockets? If so, what's in them? | ||

Oh, and can you see what kind of lock it is? Padlock? Combination lock? Word lock? Other? | ||

HAF. You don't think it's a good idea to sign to the man, but you attempt to sign to the women. Unfortunately, she just looks at you confused. You're wearing a wetsuit. No pockets, but something feels attaches to the zipper, just out of reach. The lock is a padlock. | ||

About how fast are we descending? Look into the pool. Is there anything in there? Can you move around the cage? Or is it too small? If you can move, crouch down and see if you can reach the whatever-it-is now. Look down and see what it is (I'm assuming we're not blindfolded, seeing as you can see the other person and the room). | ||

Quiet slowly. A snail moves faster. Turtles too. Aside from the two cages, the girl and yourself, and water, the pool is empty. Moving around is easy. You crouch down and feel around. There's a key taped to the bottom of the cage. | ||

Oh, good. Pick it up. See if it fits the padlock on the top of the cage. If it does, use the key to unlock it. Look over at the other girl. Can you see if she has a key too? We don't want her to drown, after all. | ||

You pick up the key and try to unlock the cage. It works! But you can't climb out quite yet, so you wait until the cage is fully submerged to swim over to the girl. She motions you to turn around. When you do so, she removes a key from your zipper and unlocks her cage. | ||

Okay. So, now that we're both free, can we get out of the pool? Talk to the other woman? The man? Or does he get mad again? | ||

You and the woman get out of the pool, but she motions for you to remain quiet. You both walk to the man, but when you try talking to him all he says is "I cannot help you." | ||

Can the woman talk to the man? | ||

The woman still refuses to talk. | ||

Is the door locked? If not, try to open it and walk out. Or does the man prevent you from doing this? If the door is locked, what kind of lock is it? | ||

Is the item in the man's hand that he had fiddled with something of value to you? Is it a remote for the door? Is the man H/A/M? | ||

is the item in the mans hand something dangerous or threatening to you or the woman? | ||
