015} now look up, well the skies are black {and they're getting darker all the time}
[SPAM;VIDEO]
[When the scream rings out, Allison drops like a lead weight.
It's a sound she knows well, the banshee's howl. It's painful, it's terrible, and it's terrifying because she's helpless. She would fear a dupe, if she hadn't smelled Lydia personally, if she hadn't known her for the short time they ran together...
As it is, she can't think of anything. The scream won't allow for it.
She regains awareness in the middle of the earthquake and the dark, confused and terrified and totally without direction.
Something breaks. The dark is endless.
Then...it's over.
Blinking against the sudden light, Allison flinches at the assault of new sights and sounds. She's in a room she doesn't know...a living room space, warm and neat yet lived in.
Her nostrils flare, sorting through the scents: human (Allison), rabbit, hay. There's gun oil, lead and gunpowder (bullets), the distant smells of cosmetics and breath mints and old traces of her father's aftershave. Turning in a slow circle, she spots pictures on one wall, photos of her...and on the coffee table, she takes note of a folding combat knife sitting next to some magazines.
Reaching out, she picks it up...flicks it open, then shut again.
All clues point to this space...belonging to her somehow, but there are weapons in it.
Tucking the knife into the back of her jeans, she fumbles in her pockets, looking for her comm. Finding it, her hands shake as she flicks it on, her face filling the feed a moment later. The fear is open on her features...and those that know Allison Argent well, as well as those who met her in the arena, may note enough differences in her demeanor to determine that something's very wrong.]
Everyone in the pack, please check in...I think there's something wrong.
[Allison kills the feed, then puts her comm back in her pocket, venturing cautiously out of her cabin. The doors in the corridor are familiar, but somehow wrong...
The number on the door matches. The infirmary is just down the hall. There is no question in her mind, this is her cabin. If not for the strange doors and the absence of her old room at home behind her door, she'd have sworn this was her Barge.
But, as she goes cautiously investigating the different levels of the ship (excluding warden areas at first, because she obviously doesn't have access), she slowly comes to realize that she's not where she belongs.
This ship is not the Barge she knows.]

[She pauses, then lifts her outstretched hand, slowly. She takes another step closer, making sure every move is telegraphed, making sure she doesn't surprise him.]
And you care about Lydia...just like I do. You can't care about anyone if there's nothing left to care, Stiles.
[Her hand drifts forward, reaching for his shoulder...slow, cautious.]
We can save them both. We can have them back...we can be a pack like the people on this ship are. A real one, without fear or hatred...a family.
[Cautiously, she moves to lay her hand on his shoulder, a friendly touch.]
I'm not the girl you knew, Stiles...I can help you get Scott back. If you'll let me.

Even if it feels right.
His heart is beating faster in his chest now and he grinds his teeth together.
In his mind he can hear Scott's words from the arena echoing. I know you, Stiles. You still are. But Scott didn't know the things that he's done. The things that he's still willing to do.]
Just -- just stop. You're safe here, and I'm not gonna bother you. But leave me alone. I can't help you.
[He backs away from her, a flash of unidentifiable emotion flickering over his face before he turns away.]
