Re: Apple Inn[Safe Haven]
As night begins to loom over the sky, both the women who took part in the party, and the ones just returning from a long day, soon felt the need to sleep, as the many women and few men returned to their rooms after a long day...
But, not everyone slept that night...
The Director, her face hidden by her hands, was crying nearly all night, punishing herself for Shiva's fate.
"I should have known... Why didn't I think of it... Why did I only use her like a mere tool..?"
At that thought, more tears continued to pour from her eyes...
"It's over... It's all over... Now Shiva has to suffer because of me... Along with the rest of humanity..."
All of her papers, now useless to her, were soaked with her tears. She never went to sleep, she couldn't find the peace to do so. She didn't even feel the desire to live, she just wished it would all go away...

As morning came, the inhabitents of the hotel slowly went through their morning routine, others were a little hung over from the party. And another pair were in the basement, unknown by all.
An announcement was made, but not by the Director, but by another girl with who strangely was talking in a near whisper. She said everyone should meet in the lobby.
As the girls gathered, some recognized the maid that stood by the Director two days ago when she made the announcement, she was still sporting her massive broadsword.
She made a slow bow to everyone before saying in the same whisper tone of voice she spoke with on the radio,
"Thank you for coming, the Director won't be seeing anyone today, she's feeling ill. So, I'll be the one assigning you a mission." The woman lowered her head, "As some of you are aware, Shiva has been lost in combat, so we have no choice but to rely on you newcomers to save the captured women in the city."
She points to the same board everyone looked at the first day for a mission, "There are still more things that need to be done, and we always are in need of more supplies, please be prepared before you leave the building, we've already had too many accounts of women disappearing and coming in pregnant, so please be cautious."
She then made a quick bow to the crowd of women, "Good day." was the last thing out of her mouth before she left, up the stairs to her room...
(I'll update the shop and missions thread with more missions, after this post, so check back for an edit.)
