"The fifth kit is Windkit." Brindlemask mews under her breath.

OOC || Katanaheart -- Russetheart shook her head "Not really. It was mostly just stuff we knew. We have trials to complete and open the door labeled '9'. If we don't then there's a chance we won't make it out alive. What about you?" IC || [Character Name] || Tags -- text here
"I learned something new, about the Voting process. Apparently it involves going against a group or one cat, that part I don't really get... But when that happens, you then have two options, ally or betray. Allying or betraying gives you more points," Larkwing glanced at the band with the number 3, before continuing. "If both cats ally, they both gain two points. If both betray one another, they both gain nothing. However if only one cat betrays the betrayer gets three points, while the cat who allied loses two. The diagram also depicts the shadow cats we saw earlier, Allie and Emigo,"

OOC || Katanaheart -- Russetheart fidgeted her tail. She hoped everyone would try and ally together. She wanted everyone to get out alive, but what if there could only be one winner? She'd have to do what she could to get back home. "That's... interesting... to say the least." She meowed. "I wonder how this'll all play out..." IC || [Character Name] || Tags -- text here

"Honestly... I think it's better to Ally... Betraying seems to rely on chance too much, how do you know if someone else is going to betray you? Then you gain nothing." Larkwing commented, swishing her tail back and forth. What really interested the she-cat was the shadow cats depicted in the book...

OOC || Katanaheart -- "But if you ally, and someone else betrays you, you lose." Russetheart replied, a slight edge to her voice. Either way was just as risky. IC || [Character Name] || Tags -- text here

"Would you be that willing to just hurt someone you don't even know? When they've done nothing to you?" Larkwing meowed, disturbed by the edge in Russetheart's voice. She was beginning to regret not sharing the information about Voting...

"The fifth kit is Windkit." Brindlemask mews under her breath. The book seems to hum, and more writing appears at the bottom of the page. Your reasoning is logical, yet not correct. The answer is right in front of you, and it has been from the start.

Brindlemask grumbles under her breath. (I am really embarassed now..The answer was right in front of me!) "How could I have missed that?" She sighs to herself. "The fifth kit is Lionkit." She whispers.

OOC || Katanaheart -- Russetheart bristled, angered by Larkwing's comment. "How can you just assume that I'd just toss a cat to the fire if it meant saving only myslef?! I'm the deputy of my Clan! I need to get back home alive! It's not just because I want to live! With the wolves haunting StormClan, they need every warrior they could get, and I needed to make it back to save them!" She hissed. "StarClan chose me to save them! If that means I have to make it through this place first, I'll put my clan before any of you!" She turned, lashing her tail and stormed out of the library. She had thinking to do. IC || [Character Name] || Tags -- text here

Larkwing had been been stunned by Russetheart's enraged yelling. She didn't even have a chance to reply when the StormClan cat had rushed out of the room.
'Most of us seem to be Clan cats, would she really be so risky for herself to take another's life?' Larkwing thought.

Brindlemask grumbles under her breath. (I am really embarassed now..The answer was right in front of me!) "How could I have missed that?" She sighs to herself. "The fifth kit is Lionkit." She whispers. (Lol, don't be embarrassed. It took me a while to figure it out the first time I saw it ) The book purrs and the text changes. Good. The first step to any riddle is to look at the riddle itself. The answer is always there if you look in unexpected places.

(Ok lol.)
"Look in unexpected places..." Brindlemask muttered. "I'll make sure to do that."

Outside the library, Russetfur comes across an odd sight. The stone tablet is gone, replaced with nine open boxes, each with enough room for two cats and then some. Stone plates label each box, although there are no names on them yet.

"I shouldn't worry about that now... I wonder..." The brown she-cat glances around at the cats who remained in the Library.
She spotted a tortoiseshell she hadn't seen when she had first awoken and padded over to the she-cat.

Brindlemask focused on the book and didn't notice Larkwing. "Are you going to tell me anything else?" She whispered to the book.

Larkwing cocked her head in confusion, upon hearing that.
She shook her head, the tortiouseshell was clearly enthralled in the book, she shouldn't disturb her...

Screenname: Larkflight Name: Heavystrike Appearance: Heavystrike has a long, fluffy black tail that could curl around his hind legs. He is short much like his mother, his eyes are pale green, and has a classic tabby pattern that covers his pelt head to toe. He has long light brown fur including his dark pelt markings that he takes pride in. Personality: He believes that he's not as high as any of his clan mates nor does he think he is less than most. If he bothers to talk, he can be sharp with his tongue at times but he'll hold back a few words knowing it could get him in trouble. At times he can lighten up just for the sake of another feeling better himself as well or he'll purposely do something in order to get the reaction he wants. Other: None Accepted! Heavystrike is the tenth cat to awaken. As he is about to enter the main room, a duo of shadow-like cats appears in front of him. "Hey, he's here! Unlucky number ten!" The yellow-eyed shadow laughs. "Welcome. You are our... substitute, I guess? Some of our players have faded into the background, so we decided to bring you in to spice things up." The blue-eyed cat hums and stares up at him. "We shall answer you questions and put you through a... 'Make-Up Trial,' since voting starts soon."

"Ugh." Brindlemask sighs and picks her head up from the book just in time to see Larkwing. She narowed her eyes. "Were you eavesdropping on me?" She meowed.

Brindlemask focused on the book and didn't notice Larkwing. "Are you going to tell me anything else?" She whispered to the book. This riddle will help in future trials. In the meantime, get to know the others. You may not be with them forever... and please never forget them.

"No. I came over to ask how your Trial was, but you seemed too busy with your book to realize I was there." Larkwing meowed.

It seems to be an ordinary box with two buttons inside. One says "Ally," and the other says "Betray." They are yellow and blue, respectively. They seem to be for the upcoming vote.

OOC || tinybreeze -- Russetheart took a step back, slightly nervous. What would she do during voting? She'd told Larkwing she'd do anything to get back home, and that even meant betraying the others... Really you didn't lose anything from betraying them... but what would the others do? It might be better simply to ally them... She sighed. The she-cat wanted to go home. She didn't want to die here, and never get back to her family. Her Clan, even. But would she be willing to give herself to let others do the same? IC || [Character Name] || Tags -- text here

Brindlemask grumbles at the book before returning to the conversation. "My Trial was fine..." Brindlemask tried to hide the serpent-shadow bite on her shoulder.

"What number was on your door?" Larkwing asked, deciding the number of cats in the room should be known first.

"Door 5." Brindlemask grumbles.

"Door 3. It was full. Our Door opened up to a beautiful meadow with a river. We also met some shadow cats after finding and breaking one of those Statues." Larkwing meowed.
