Does anyone have any other ideas?

Hmm. I can't really think of anything else.

Let's run through them all again. What ideas have we come up with so far?

Make a flag to wave at planes or boats passing nearby. Write a giant SOS on the beach. Light a signal fire. Did I forget anything?

Someone also suggested building a raft, but I question how effective that could be.

Honestly, I don't see how any of the ideas we came up with would be effective.

You think so? But they seem like the typical things people do when they're stranded.

Think about it. Have we seen any planes or boats pass by this island since we arrived?

*Gasp* Now that you mention it…

We came up with various ideas, but our best option might be to hide and wait until the boat comes to pick us up.

You might be right about that. Is there really nothing else we can do?

If I'm not doing anything then I start to imagine different scenarios and then I get all anxious, so I wanna at least find something we can do.

It's still a bit early, but how about we go to sleep? Maybe it'll be tomorrow when we wake up?

What would we do if the zombies came after us in our sleep?! Not all of us can fall asleep in an instant like you can.

Especially poor, little, delicate me. My chest feels like it's gonna burst from all of this anxiety. *Sob* *Sob*

How wonderful it'd be if I could forget about everything and fall asleep.

Karin is usually so level-headed, but even she has a thousand-yard stare right now.

There, there, Karin, it'll be all right. I'll be right beside you no matter what happens.

Emma!

If sitting here doing nothing isn't helping our nerves at all, how about we play cards?

How can you suggest something like that in this situation?!

Why not? We don't have anything else to do, and if we keep up this thought process our imaginations will just run wild.

Yeah, it might be a good idea to get our minds off this whole thing for a while.

Since we couldn't play cards yesterday, I could go for some Old Maid!

Count me in too, if Rin's playing.

Anybody else joining?

[Fade in/out.]

I'm not getting any pairs at all… Oh, I got one! *Chuckle* Go for it, Ai, take a card.

Hmmm, I choose this one! Let's see. Oh, I got a pair too. Okay, you're up, Kasumin.

You're pretty lucky. However, I'm not going to lose. Hyah!

Ugh!

*Giggle* You're an easy read.

Wh-What do you mean? It's not like I pulled the old maid or anything.

*Laugh* Your eyes are darting all over the place!

A-Argh! If you have the old maid, you have to tell me, Ai!

Huh? How is this my fault?!

Kasumi, you need a poker face for Old Maid.

I know that!

Do you want to borrow my Rina-chan board? Using Rina-chan Board says, “Silent.” would give you the perfect poker face.

But then nobody would be able to see my adorable face!

EEEP!

What was that?!

I'll go take a look!

Me too.

[Fade in/out.]

Relax. It seems like it was just a trick of the wind.

Really? I hope that's all it was.

It really sounded like a voice to me, though.

Don't say scary things like that!

Y-Yeah. Since we've been thinking about scary stuff that probably just made the wind sound like voices to us.

You can say it was nothing, but I'm still worried about it.

Hey, why don't we go keep a lookout in front of the cave?

Um, excuse me?! Why would you want to do something that is obviously going to lead to our doom?

We're worried because we think the zombies might be roaming around without us knowing or that they might come into the house, right?

So wouldn't we be reassured if we're someplace where we can see with our own eyes?

I think so as well.

I'm totally against that! People do stuff like that all the time in TV shows!

She's right! There's safety in numbers, but that one person who goes back to their own room because they don't want to be with a potential killer is always the next victim!

I'm telling you right now, absolutely nobody should be alone in times likes this!

Nevertheless, the truth is that I am still really worried about the cave. Perhaps Nozomi is correct about the need to keep an eye on it?

Then let's split into two groups. Those that will stay here and those that will go to keep a lookout on the cave. So who wants to stay here?

Me, me, meee!

That's Kasumi and Nico.

Huh? Only the two of us?! Eli, weren't you just about to raise your hand?

Huh?! I-I was, but then I thought maybe it would be better to be in the bigger group.

You two are in charge of holding down the fort while we're gone.

W-Wait just a second!

This balance is all wrong! I'm coming too!

Okay, let's all go together.

I-I suppose if you're going to be like that…
