... Nora would awake in a strange room- four gray stone walls surrounded her, and a stone floor, with a clear glass ceiling showing various stars and galaxies above. It would be almost beautiful, if not for the circumstances. The room itself was mostly featureless, just the four walls with no decor... And seemingly no exit?? Taylor sat in the middle of the room, a migraine fading from his head as he woke up. The tingling was gone, and he had full control over his body. He was sat against a wall, and there was a set of chains on the wall beside him, but he was not bound. There was a man in the room. With black hair and green highlights- shaved on one side with an intricate pattern. Their eyes were dark voids, besides one pinprick of white, glowing light. He wore a flowing open robe, green pants, and green dress shoes. His body was riddled with red scars-.. Burns, maybe? His right arm was bandaged up and shaking slightly. In his left hand, he was holding the rabbit plush in his left hand, looking it over. As Taylor stirred, he looked over, smiling and began to step over toward Taylor. He held his shaking right hand out toward his head as he walked. "Hoyseksagu." He said. His voice sounded like the final voice that was chanting in his head before he vanished. @Barry | Taylor + Kevin

The moment Taylor stirred, he groans rubbing his head as his eyes lazily scanned his surroundings. Poppy hitting his chest 'harder' as she noticed the man finally start to be conscious again. "Poppy... I'm fine I just- well I don't think I just zoned out but I'm fine." He muttered. But she didn't stop, pointing a stubby limb towards where the footsteps were coming from. Finally making him look up just in time for the man to speak. Visibly flinching as he recognized the voice from the chanting before he... Before he... He pauses. Seeing how shaky the hand was. Looking at the man again as he noticed more about him. The scarring and bandages specifically. "Are you okay?" He reflexively asked. Before realizing it was probably not the normal thing to ask someone who may or may not have kidnapped him. @Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽

The man didn't respond before he forced his hand upon Taylor's head. A feeling of electricity shot across his head, like he had just learned an entire new subject in mere moments. The shaking of the man's arm only got worse as he pulled it away. "There. Now we speak the same language. What were you saying before?" @Barry | Taylor + Kevin

Taylor panted, grabbing his head, his scalp throbbing from the electrifying feeling that went though his head. More so around his scar. The feeling lingering slightly even as he now could understand the other man now. "I... uh. Asked if you were okay? You look... hurt." He cautiously said, making Poppy hide behind his arm as he still sat there. Still concerned, but now more weary since he didn't really get any sort of warning to what was trying to be done to him. @Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽

"I am fine. I have just been using my powers a lot today, is all. Getting so many people here is no easy feat." He said. "How are you doing?" @Barry | Taylor + Kevin

"....I- I'm going to be honestly I don't know right now. Disregarding the part that there are other people you got here uh,... okay this is going to be awkward to just straight up ask but am I kidnapped?" @Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽

"Sort of. Abducted might be a better word. I brought you here to participate in a wonderful event! You should be thankful to have been considered for the very exclusive guest list." @Barry | Taylor + Kevin

"I- er. Sir. Didn't catch your name sorry-" He quickly stands up, dusting his pants off as he double checks to make sure Poppy was still hiding behind him. A quick glance down at the watch on his wrist as least easing his rising worries on that front. "But I work at my uncle's toy shop. So I can't help but wonder what the uh- criteria is to have me be accepted. I-I mean I'm not saying it's a bad judgment but... well. I have no idea what this event even is." @Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽

"Nok Rakin. Caller of the Abyss blah blah blah, you may just call me Rakin." He said. "The criteria is to be interesting and living, so we saw some potential in you." "And this event is meant to be a spectacle for the host, and the whole universe. So you'll be a little celebrity! Not that you'll be alive to reap the rewards of it, but you can die knowing billions are aware of you and your every choice!" @Barry | Taylor + Kevin

"I'm sorry what was that last part?" He squeaked. Color draining from his face at the mere mention of death being mentioned. @Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽

".. Billions are aware of you and your every choice?" @Barry | Taylor + Kevin

"Well yes that part too but I was specifically talking about the not being alive part!" @Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽

"Ah, yes, yes, so concerned about mortality." Rakin waved his hand dismissively. "I assure you your death will be mostly painless and swift." @Barry | Taylor + Kevin

"Listen I came close to dying before- its not nice to do to someone!" He grits his jaw, knuckles white from how tightly he clenched them. "Is there no way I or the others you abducted can live? Why do any of us have to die in the first place?!" @Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽

"I quite literally am not able to send you home. My powers do not work that way. Now that you are here, your death has been written in stone." Rakin shrugged. "All you can try to do is live longer than the others." @Barry | Taylor + Kevin

"No... no way." He feels himself sink down on the ground his legs feeling weak as he stared off through the glass ceiling. Even with all the stars and galaxies and all that lingered within his sight, even with Poppy... He didn't think he could feel so isolated like this again. "...I... don't have any other choice do I? I literally have no other choice." @Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽

"No, you really don't, Taylor. So you might as well make the time you have count." Rakin smiled. "There are a few friendly people here. Your last few weeks of life won't be totally miserable." @Barry | Taylor + Kevin

"...I'm gonna try and live longer than that at least." He laughs hallowly. Tears pricking the corners of his eyes. "Just... at least tell me I'll be able to leave this room soon." 'And see if you truly can't bring me back.' He bit his lip at the thought. The tension of the situation making him unable to make eye contact with Rakin. @Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽

"Oh, yes yes, soon you will be unconscious again and wake up in a slightly nicer place that is much less intimidating and private." Rakin nodded. He didn't really care about the eye contact. "If you don't have any more questions, we can end this." @Barry | Taylor + Kevin

"... what was it exactly that was interesting about me? Other than that, just please be a bit gentler than whatever you did to make me understand you." He still made sure to be polite. Poppy holding onto his arm as the animated plush rabbit looked blankly at Rakin. If it wasn't for how obviously lifeless the one button eye it had left was, one might swear they'd feel her glaring at them. @Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽

"Oh, I know all about your life, Taylor.." Rakin smiled. ".. If I should call it that..? Hmm?" @Barry | Taylor + Kevin

His shoulders tense, leaving him silent as he had nothing else to say at that. Still avoiding eye contact as he did knowing there was truth in what he was saying. @Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽

"I think I'll leave you with that for now." Rakin said. He held his hand out. "Ready to get going?" @Barry | Taylor + Kevin

"Yes. Proceed with the making me unconscious bit that you mentioned before." He sighs. Waiting in dreadful anticipation for the moment a moment of pain like before. @Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽

Rakin grabbed his hand and a shock of electricity went through him, instantly making him unconscious. @Barry | Taylor + Kevin

He collapsed against the ground. Poppy pressing herself against his head protectively as she watches Rakin like before. One of her poorly stitched ears flopping over his eyes as she did. It is unlikely he'll wake before he's taken to where the others will be.
