The Shreds of A Tattered Soul

[Sophia]

"So wait... He's a satirist, like a cartoonist or something?" I ask naively.

[Sakari Lehtinen]

"...yeah really, no worries bud, I'll just use the bathroom and I'll be right out." I say smiling.

Sakari heads into the bathroom before hearing his response, and quietly locks the door. The first thing he notices is a giant hole in the wall, which conveniently leads... Outside! Upon closer examination, the walls must not have been touched in at least a decade. An inch of filth cakes the walls. He frantically looks around for an alternate exit. No window, no vent, no nothing...

"nuts... Okay, I can do this..." I say, holding my breath. I take a deep breath, and slide myself inbetween the walls. It's tighter in here than I imagined, and the scum is easily coming off onto my clothing. It's better than coming out with broken limbs.

There's a knock on the door... Sakari hurries his way down the narrow filthy passageway.

[Ruth]

Wandering around Helsinki, aimless, was not really Ruth's idea of a grand scheme to overthrow a corrupt government, but then again, rebel groups aren't exactly the kind of thing that one puts up signs on the main streets of town to advertise.

Still, with a rebel base in the city, there must be some rebels around.

Ruth looked from face to face, not able to differentiate a loyal member of the government from the disloyal rebels. She let out a sigh and continued to walk.

[Fenitchka]

"Oh do you work for Red Infinity too then. Because if you do...well...I found something earlier. The rebels are trying to contact you. You really need to be careful. You never know who is a secret informant."

I hand him the letter that I stole from him earlier.

[Danuel Stinin]

Dan takes the letter and skims it. "Socialist? Ya, I am, but I'm not going to join some rebel group. That's suicide. Besides, I'm not inclined to join groups who's messages appear in my school bags."

[Fenitchka]

"I understand. It is a little strange. The man who sent it should get in trouble."

I play with my hair and put Kolya back on my lap.

[Danuel Stinin]

Dan's watch beeps and he checks the time. "Getting on towards evening... hey, why don't we all go for some dinner?"

[Fenitchka]

"No, I really can't afford to go out, and I do not want to be in your debt Daniel. If you want I can make some dinner here. I could make a frozen pizza."

[Danuel Stinin]

"Alright. I don't mind paying but I can respect your choice I suppose. I love pizza, oven baked the most of all in fact. Thanks for the offer."

[Fenitchka]

"Well this won't be anything fancy or homemade, but it is a frozen pizza with peperoni."

I take out the pizza from the freezer and turn on the oven to preheat it. Once it has preheated, I stick the pizza inside.

[Danuel Stinin]

"I know. Maybe it's because I eat so much frozen food. During meets that's about all that we have to eat. Snack stuff and baked frozen stuff. You should come to a meet sometime."

[Fenitchka]

"A meet? Is this related to your D&D?"

[Danuel Stinin]

"Oh, I forget that other people don't know these terms. A meet is when the players and the dungeon master gather to play a game of D&D. D&D is made up of campains, which are then divided into adventures. Usually we play one adventure per meeting, or meet."

[Fenitchka]

"Sure, I would like to observe one of your meets." I say with a smile.

I take the pizza out of the oven and let it cool.

[Danuel Stinin]

"Well, tommorrow is the next meeting if you'd like to come. Of course, it might not be a great idea. Kolya might put the minitures in his mouth, or the dice. There's alot of small pointy object in D&D.

Still, there's only one girl in the group. Three guys and one girl. And me. So four guys and one girl. Anyway, I'm sure she'd be happy to have someone else of a female alignment around."
