(Akira'll be in in a moment)

Nicolas continued to cry, he couldn't get himself to speak at the moment, much too scared to even tell Mason he was okay.. which he wasn't.

Rowan had gone off into his room, his eyes dulled over again as he went back to his room. He heard William call out that he was back.. and he felt a bit of relief, it meant Archie couldn't hurt them for now.. but that didn't take away the pain. Who knew if William was planning this all along anyway? He didn't trust anyone again.. not for a moemnt.

Elizabeth had limped out of the area, wincing with each step. She was already limping when she got here but now it was a lot worse and much more noticable. It hurt her greatly, but she didn't complain much. She just wanted to be alone.. so she stayed outside, where she was alone.

William felt as though somehow, he had done something wrong. He didn't see any of the children around.. and he only spotted Archie whom he approached. " Archie.. Where are my children? " He asked, worry in his voice. " I haven't a clue William, after the tour they all went off to their own areas, I didn't keep track. " William didn't think his brother was lying, so he didn't question this answer from him. Instead he went looking for them, to make sure they were all okay.. As Archie said, William could be blind at times. And now, was one of those times.

Akira knocked on the door. "Um, may I come in?"

Ifera wounds had gotten the better of her and she was now on the floor of the bathroom curled up in a ball sobbing and screaming into her fist as she bit it to keep quiet. The water didn't help much and the bleeding started up once more.

She had turned over to look at the door. Seeing Aoi making her way into the room she had sat up, still holding her rabbit. The rabbit visibly wet, her face red and her body slightly shaking. She was looking towards her and; even if she didn't expect company. She wanted somebody to talk too. So she patted the spot next to her gently before speaking. "I- Not really.. Would it be a-alright if you closed th-e door? I don't re-really want the wrong p-person to listen.." She had noticed Akira knock on the door and softly spoke to her. "Y-yes.. you can come in.." She was happy to have company, but it didn't stop all the bad thoughts from taking over her mind.

Mason began to cough. He pulled back, his side hurting. Mason put a hand on his side, now realizing it was bleeding like hell. "Damn it.", He muttered, staring at his blood stained hand.

Akira opened the door quietly and locked it behind her, so if the evil man came, they would have more time to escape out the window.

Ulima wiped tears from her cheeks, she wouldn't be seen crying by anyone no matter how much she hurted inwardly and out. The blonde was going to run the first chance she got, even if she was caught, even if there was a chance that Archie would kill her afterwards, it was better than living here.

(Open for interaction)

Nicolas looked panicked at seeing the blood, and finally he found his voice, " He hurt you bad.. " He whispered, tears still rolling down his cheek.

William heard the cries all around him.. and he started to worry more. He went over to Kimani's room and knocked as softly as he could muster, " Kimani..? Are you alright? " He said, trying not to let the child hear the apparent worry in his voice.

Meanwhile, Charlotte had gone to Puyo's room and done the same, softly knocking and asking if she was alright.
