Hinckley

*Sylvia pushes the corpse of Hector out of the way. The missing knife falls out of his hand. There is a dead scorpion in his lap. He clearly made one last valiant effort to save himself.* *Sylvia turns the key in the ignition. Not surprisingly, it doesn't start.* *Fred finds a walkie-talkie and tries to use it. He succeeds in radoing Johnson Willoughby who is standing right next to him. If there was a CB on the bus, it is now missing...* *The group must reach a consensus on returning to the temple or staying.* *The group may also want to consider reaching a consensus on the knives.*

*How would you like to go about discovering that?* *Again, how would you like to make sure?* *Um...there's no insect guide book. The scorpions were a variant of the genus...um...They were made of plastic OK? And they were the size of your torso. Can you identify it with those facts? *

*Again, if any weapons are to be distributed, it will have to be done through the tour's security guard, Fred Thomas.*

*You'll have to ask Fred. The gun has been issued to him for purposes of safety during the tour.*

*The weapons locker door has been tampered with. The lock is broken. The tranquilizer gun, rifle and revolver are still present. 6 of the 7 knives you confiscated from members of the tour are present. 1 is missing.*

*Sandy remembers that it is in the bus where the killer scorpions are and thinks better to wait for the scorpions to be killed first.* *Big rocks seems like the best idea. Donna and some of the others take turns aiming through the window at the large scorpions on the bus. Eventually all three are sufficiently squashed.* *Sandy grabs the first aid kit to tend to Sheldon, who is feeling weak from the sting.* *Siegourney tends to Sylvia's broken arm-putting it, expertly, in a splint.* *It is now safe to enter the bus.*

*Sheldon turns to run back into the temple and grab a torch, but before he can a scorpion jumps out the window and stings the smartass in the face.* *Sandy slaps the scorpion away from Sheldon, narrowly escaping being stung herself. The scorpion scuttles off into the jungle.* "Don't worry. There's scorpion venom antidote in the first aid kit." *Samantha puts the camera in the window and snaps a picture. There are clearly only three scorpions left on the bus. She then whistles Kumbaya.* *The group decides the torches are too dangerous and smashing the scorpions with something seems the better option.*

*For now. Would you like to look in the bus window?* please say yes please say yes...

*It's possible to get into the bus if you find a way to kill the scorpions...Perhaps you can start by finding out how many there are. Maybe someone's camera can help out with that...*

"Scorpions are indigenous to the area. You signed a waiver acknowledging you were aware of the risk. How they got on the bus, I have no idea..."

*The rattling sound is heard again. A rather large scorpion appears in the broken window momentarily and the scuttles off into the jungle.*

*There is nobody and nothing hiding under the bus.* *The door lock seems to be blocked by Hector's body.*

*You reach through the window and check Hector's pulse. You don't find one. You hear a rattling and movement. It appears something inside the bus is moving.*

*Richard picks up a rock and smashes the bus window with it. After a few good strikes the glass is completely gone from the first window.* "Sorry Willoughby. Sometimes you just have to get things done."

*The shaken tour group returns to the bus. Johnson Willoughby frantically knocks on the door of the bus. Hector appears to be asleep and the door is locked...* "Um... Mr. Willoughy...does it concern you at all the location and angle at which the bus has been parked? Something seems off..." *The bus is locked.*

"Young lady, there is no time to search for the other half of Mr. Baxter. We must return to the bus at once and get the hell off of this God-forsaken island!"

*The ring and key are not in the pile of Jack's body parts...However his legs are still missing...*

I use it a lot at the model shop too. Who'd have thought??

*What stick would you like to use?* "Tour cancelled. All must return to bus immediately! " *Johnson seems to have evacuated two bladders this time.*

*The picture of the tooth reveals a small inscription: "prudentia"* *The blood on the walls says "Leave or die."* *She's wearing pants, you perv:* *As William, Sheldon and Diesel steady the scaffolding from below, Siegourney bravely climbs up to rescue Sylvia.* "I must insist we return to the bus. MOTEE tours has strict protocol about injuries sustained on one of our tours. There's also a first-aid kit there that will have a sufficient splint for Sylvia's arm." *Diana looks at the hat and backpack lying on the ground. They appear to be the hat and backpack Jack Baxter has been wearing. Before she can go through them there is an un-earthly groan and growl from above. A shadow falls across Diana's face as something above moves. Half of Jack Baxter's mutilated body falls from the beak of the demon statue to the temple floor in front of her. Organs and blood splatter everywhere.

*Siegourney runs into the Grand Chamber to find Sylvia hanging from the scaffolding.* *Sheldon and William also run to Sylvia's aid.* *The rest of the group joins in the Grand Chamber to see what is happening with Sylvia.*

*There doesn't seem to be anything hidden there, but it's hard to concentrate with the frantic screaming coming from inside.* *You will have to ask them.*

*Stanton runs to the door back to the Grand Chamber. "I was kidding but there is blood on the walls!" he calls back to the group, "I can't read what it says..."* *The group looks around wondering what to do next.* *Who is screaming inside??*

*The celebration of the new engagement is short-lived as screaming erupts from inside the temple. Sandy and Sheldon emerge from the forest. The whole group looks back towards the temple in shock at the abrupt noise...*

Not at all. You're doing great with that and I agree that is what she would do. Feel free to pop in and out if you want to respond to things.
