Eli Ep. 4: An Air of Danger
Eli's scream echoes through the quiet school. Is she just startled, or could there be something wrong?
Player
(That scream sounded like it was Eli. It came from the club room. I should go help her!)
Player
Let me take this broom. It might come in handy if I have to fight someone.
Player
(I'm scared, but… But I have to save Eli.)
Player
Eli, just wait for me.
[Fade in/out.]
Player
Eli! Eli, where are you?
Eli
What are you doing here?
Player
Eli! Are you okay?
Player
I heard you scream, so I…
Eli
I was so scared. I'm so glad you came.
Player
(Eli?! She's crying. She must have been terrified.)
Eli
I saw someone outside the window, then I heard growling.
Player
(I have to protect her.)
Player
They might still be nearby. In order to protect Eli…
| Option 1: “We should leave the school.” |
|---|
| Player We should leave the school. Eli But if someone's broken into the school, we have to deal with them. Player We have to think about your safety first! Let's go outside. Eli Okay, I trust you. [Fade in/out.] Player Well, we made it out to the front gate. |
| Option 2: “We need to find them!” |
| Player We need to find them! Player They were outside the window, right? I have a weapon, so I'm going to go get them! (It's just a broom, though.) Eli Through the window?! That's too dangerous! Player This is to protect this school for everyone's sake. I can't just let them run free! Eli Thanks. I can't let you go alone, though. I'm going with you. [Fade in/out.] Player Hmmm. No one's here. Let's head over to the front gate. [Fade in/out.] Eli No one is here, either. Maybe they left school grounds, or… |
???
Grrrrrr…
Eli
Th-That voice!
Player
Was that the voice you heard before? I'll go check it out!
Eli
But it's dangerous! If something happened to you, I would… I!
Cat
Meow…
Player
H-Huh? Was that growl we heard before this cat?
Eli
Was it?! I was so scared. I can't believe it was just a cat.
Player
Umm. It's okay, Eli. Everything is fine now.
Player
(Eli is just a normal high school student like me. I feel bad for making her so scared.)
[Fade in/out.]
Eli
Ugh, I can't believe I freaked out over a cat.
Eli
How embarrassing. You must be so disappointed seeing how uncool I am.
Player
Not at all! Seeing how normal you are just makes me realize how cute you are!
Eli
Cute?! Don't be so weird!
Eli
Anyways, the lighting from below must have made its shadow appear big. What a pesky cat.
Cat
Meow…
Player
Let me put the broom back and walk you home. Oh, I don't know where you live, though.
Eli
Thanks! Why don't you come over for some tea? I'll introduce you to my little sister Alisa, too.
Player
I guess I can take you up on that. I'm looking forward to it!
Eli
Thanks for everything today!
