Abigail quietly slipped out from under the sheets and rolled out of bed at around 2:30 in the morning. She had to be careful not to wake anybody up this early. She was on her own mission tonight.
Silently turning the door knob, she slipped out of the bedroom, only to see Dominic right in front of the room.
[intiate auditorial conversation]
Dom: sup
Abigail: oh shit
Abigail: sorry you surprised me
Dom: you should know by now that I know when things are about to happen moments before they happen.
Abigail: whatever
Dom: so what are you doing
Abigail: I'm...
Abigail: super sleuthing
Dom: what?
Abigail: there's some weird shit going down around here and I want to get to the bottom of it
Dom: I'm coming with you
Abigail: no thanks
Dom: it wasn't a question
Abigail: fine whatever
The two walked down the hall, approaching an air vent. Abigail pulled a Bobby pin from her hair and picked the screw out from the vent. She gestured for Dom to climb in. With a swoos, Dom parkourdd inside, but not before letting out a quiet shout of pain. The pain caused him to fall back out of the vent.
Abigail: are you ok? What happened?
Dom: it's nothing
Dom tried to get back up, wincing in pain again and falling back down. Abigail examined Dominic's hand
Dom: wait no don't look
Abigail found a collection of cuts and scars on Dom's right hand that spelled out some sort of encrypted code:
POE ZTARVOPAZS UQKO WN E BYANL
Abigail: what the heck is this
Dom: I have no idea
Dom: recently I've just been cutting messages into myself in my sleep
Dom: I assume it's some prediction of the future, but I can't understand how to decrypt it
Abigail: huh
Abigail: well you should probably take these
Abigail retrieved a roll of bandages and gave them to Dom.
Dom: do you just carry these everywhere or what
Abigail: I stole them from the medical department during the tour
Abigail: I always like to be prepared before a mission
After patching up his hand, Dom swoosed right in and Abigail followed. Crawling through the freezing metal vents, sounds echoed around them. They could hear broken up speech every once in a while, coming from miscellaneous conference rooms they passed by.
Dom: what made you so suspicious?
Abigail: blood in the elevator was the first thing
Abigail: but also pepper has been acting strange lately
Abigail: like strangely triumphant
Dom: huh
They continued on, eventually passing by Pepper's office. Peeking through the vent, Dom saw Pepper throwing darts at a picture of Air Bud.
Dom: yeah he's just throwing darts at air bud
Dom: it's kinda disturbing
Abigail: yeah
Dom: I'm don't think he's plotting something though
Dom: I think he's just weird
Abigail: maybe you're right
Dominic and Abigail returned from whence they came and screwed the air vent back on. Silently, they returned to their dormitories and prepared for the tomorrow's big mission.
SECRET HINT: the song name of the last secret is the key
