[theycalledmeacurse]

Where; Various locations
When; August 5th - 10th
Warnings; Mentions of imprisonment and torture, but nothing graphic. Will update as needed.

Being stuck underground was starting to take its toll on Rogue. It wasn't quite as bad when she was out and about, like in the cafeteria for her sorry excuse for meals, but when she was in her room... It was too much like being in the lab, where there had been no windows and nothing personal to remind her that she was still a human being.

With each night that passed, her nightmares grew worse and she found herself spending more time just walking around HQ, settling in one place for a few hours before moving to another. Being around people helped sometimes, but nighttime was the worst, when everyone seemed to settle and there was no one left to remind her that this world was still alive.


OOC; Starter posts/locations in the comments. Feel free to propose others, Rogue will be doing quite a bit of wandering.

"Ten!" Rogue called out loudly, waiting another few seconds just in case the girl needed a little extra time to get into her hiding spot. Pulling herself up to stand, she took a few steps forward, glancing around and trying to see if she could spot any signs of where Grace might have gone. This wasn't like the forests they'd hidden in during the war, though, and the footprints in the ground could have easily been from others in the complex.

"I wonder where she could be," she pondered in that same loud voice, a playful tone slipping into the words as she moved further into the forest.

Grace's fingers tightened against her lips when she heard Rogue begin to wander through the forest. She was only a few yards away when Rogue wandered into her sights.

She was trying to stay very quite.

Rogue spotted Grace almost as soon as she was in her field of vision, but she didn't let on to it. Where was the fun in ending the game so soon? So she continued on, wondering aloud again where the little girl could be hiding.

Slowly, she moved through the trees, circling around behind where Grace was, trying to be quiet herself as she neared so she could sneak up on the child.

Grace watched as the woman walked past her and, true to her father's way of playing, she began to sneak out of her hiding place in an attempt to follow Rogue. She had practiced stepping lightly and she was able to move without making a sound as she crept along.

A few more steps and she lost Rogue from her sight. She paused, moving low against a tree as to not be found. She had no idea what Rogue was sneaking up behind her.
