taxonomites | now i rock a house party at the drop of a hat.

It's around five o'clock in the morning when the citizens of Taxon find themselves inexplicably transported into rooms within the Sanctuary. Doors are left open and beds unmade, food abandoned and lights left on, still shining brightly for those who were awake and are no longer present. The Extras don't seem to notice the captive population's sudden disappearance, continuing on with their business as usual.

For those relocated, though, it's an entirely different story.

They find themselves in rooms with white, alabaster walls that gives them an almost too-clean feeling, as if the entire place was sanitized prior to their arrival. The room assignments are seemingly random, people placed on floors with those they don't know and don't like, people they would rather not be within twenty feet of. It matters not, for what's done is done and cannot be undone. For those who happen to have pets, they'll find them waiting for their owners in the rooms as if nothing is out of the ordinary.

The only thing the captives have managed to bring with them is the clothes on their back and the tablets. On them, they find the following message:

SORRY FOR THE INCONVENIENCE PLEASE ENJOY YOUR STAY WHILE WE ADDRESS CERTAIN TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES

Unfortunately for those who try to find a means of escape, they'll discover there is none. Leaving the Sanctuary will prove to be as difficult as leaving Taxon itself. However, if one heads down the right corridor and the right floor, they'll find something else entirely lurking in their midst...

[ a year ago, being the sole support for a teenager she'd barely even known had been strange for her, but now... she knows elena far better and jenna's fallen into her new role much easier than she had at first. it's becoming more natural this way and jenna's starting to like it. as long as elena needs her, she'll be there. ]

It's gonna be okay.

[ katherine won't mess things up for any of them. jenna will do anything she can to make sure of that. ]

Do you want to go find a room now?

[ once elena's calmed down anyway. jenna will just hold on tight until elena wants to move. ]

[ elena pulls back a bit to wipe at her cheeks. charlotte, sensing that mommy's upset, has started to nudge at her ankles. she reaches down to absently scratch between her ears as she answers. ]

Yeah. If you wanted - maybe we can use one of the empties on one of the other floors. As a safe house, maybe. [ pause. ] Or a safe room. Somewhere to check in.

I could always sleep in that one and call this one my actual room.

[ if it'll help them all sleep easier, jenna's willing to do a lot. she leans down next to elena and wraps an arm around her niece's shoulders. ]

At the very least we can do a little scouting right now. It'll be good to get out and about a little. The kitten too.
