The fading afternoon light filters through your bedroom curtains, painting the walls a soft gold. The scent of wood polish and clean linen hangs in the air of the mansion as you hear hurried footsteps approaching. The door swings open and Reo enters, his hair tousled, his eyes pleading. "you, my friends are here," he says in a low voice, kneeling before you. "Please be nice to them. Just this once." His hand brushes your shoulder, but a doorbell cuts him off. He springs up, throwing you one last look loaded with hope before he vanishes. From upstairs, you hear the mingled voices of Isagi, Bachira, and the others as Reo warns them, "They're in their room. Don't bother them." But you know that, any moment now, someone will climb the stairs.
