       Myra turned to Issyah. "Wow, you must've done something pretty
       impressive to win their votes huh?" She saw him eyeing Ego's
       name. "Let's not be so hasty though. I'm still wondering where
       the guy we supposidly saved went."
       Myra continued to think and then realized something. She still
       had her bag.
       She reached inside to find her phone, some tissues, a box of
       make up, and some rather sharp pieces of jewelry. These could
       come in handy later.

       "They said it's because I'm good at seeing all perspectives." a
       shock forces her touch away as she reached for his shoulder. "I
       don't want your false feelings, DONT TOUCH ME!" he yells. the
       air rattles with electricity again.
       Ego watched the altercation between them. he taps on the glass
       to get Issyahs attention and mouths the words "calm down". and
       makes a "take a breath" jester. "i'll see if I can find a way
       out" he mouths and goes off in search.
       Issyah does as asked and takes a deep breath.

       As the air crackled around her hands Lya pulled her hands back
       in a jolt.  Her eyes fell immediately to the floor and she took
       a few steps away from everyone.  She looked up only to catch
       Ego's mention he was going to look for a way out, her crimson
       eyes dull and listless.
       For the moment while Issyah was calming down all she could do
       was look at the floor.  It felt like she had swallowed a brick
       of lead as her mind spun.  She swallowed heavy, choking back the
       neasuea her thoughts brought to the surface.  She was dizzy as
       hatred for the one on the other end of the phone and mostly
       herself welled up inside her.  She stayed quiet.... After all
       every time she opened her mouth she just made everything worse.

       Ego returns from looking around the room. he shook his head no
       to show he didnt find anything
       -a text comes in-
       soooo did he find a way out? He didn't right?  ;D of course he
       didn't, do you think i'd be stupid enough to leave a chance for
       escaping? i'm not some movie villain or comic book arch nemesis.
       This isn't an anime or  tv show....this is real.
       -another text-
       choose fast or everyone dies

       Lya looked up as Ego returned with the expected answer and the
       first text went off on her phone.  Her head spun.  She clutched
       at her head and sank to the ground.  Of course there was no
       other way out.  Of course this would only end with them making a
       decision.
       Her thoughts spun faster and faster with each passing moment, so
       much that even she could no longer keep up. This was all her
       fault it had to be.  Ego and Vandal captured, Innocents
       involved, even Myra and Issyah who didn't need to be wrapped up
       in this.  She knew this was real, she knew that the one pulling
       the strings was more careful than to leave obvious escapes.  Her
       vision slowly grew more and more read as her anger and hate
       threatened to spill forth.  She should have left days ago...When
       she knew something was wrong with her...When the voices started.
       Maybe....Maybe then no one would have been dragged into this.
       But now...  Now she had killed someone, their blood was on her
       hands.  It was to save Vandal, but did he deserve death.  She
       had chosen that for him and it was hers to bare.  Everything in
       here...Everything was her fault.....And she would keep it that
       way.
       A crack echoed through the room as the second text came in.  In
       Lyas hand was her cellphone.  She had grasped it so hard the
       screen had broken, though it was still usable.  She stood up
       quietly and her way towards the glass.  She looked at Ego with a
       now calm expression.  Her usually crimson eyes the color of
       blood.  She approached the glass and pressed her button for the
       teacher, before looking at Myra and Issyah.  "If we don't act
       we've doomed them all.  I'm sorry for the Issyah.". She watched
       his hand for movement towards Ego's name...Ready to act.

       ((OOC: Just a clarification, the students and teacher are in the
       same room, or two different rooms? Are there two buttons or
       three?))
       Myra observed Lya's reaction. "...sorry Lya. This is probably
       for the best." Myra walked slowly over to Lya and gently placed
       her hand on her shoulder. Myra's feelings might be mixed, but at
       this point, it was clear she had a clearer head than Lya right
       now.
       Lya would feel what seemed to be a wave of calm filling her
       mind, but that would be closely followed by a wave of...
       probably something that could only be described as cuiotic
       excitement, a very controlled  layer of anger, and just a hint
       of ... lust? This is of course if she accepted the emotions.
       However in her current state, this was probably a bit harder to
       do. Either way, Myra couldn't think of any other way to help
       her.  Whatever choice Lya went with, they would all have to live
       with it.

       (the teacher, ego, and the students are all in the same room.
       there are 3 options. the class, the teacher, or ego. Lya, Myra,
       and Issyah all have an independent choice on who they choose to
       die but Issyah vote counts for 3 while Myra and Lya each only
       count for 1)
       Issyah watched her press the button and he fought back a few
       tears "....I can't let them die" he says and goes to press Ego's
       name.

       As Myra touched Lyas shoulder the emotions​ began to flow
       into her immediately.  Normally the girl was careful to not try
       to take too much from a person.  This time however the influx
       was fairly large, leaving Myra somewhat empty feeling. Lyas
       current expression however didn't change.  The mix of emotion
       from Myra swirled around with the myriad of emotions already
       contained within her.
       As Issyah reached for Ego's button, Lyas was quick to speak.
       The air rippled around her slightly and honeyed words caught his
       attention.  [Color=teal] "Again, I'm sorry for this Issyah, but
       you can't push that button.  I need you to push the same one I
       did.  This is my fault, and the burden will be mine in the end.
       You won't need to remember any of this."[/color]. As she spoke
       her words tugged at the back of Issyahs mind.  There was
       something about them, some overwhelming compulsion to do as the
       petite girl had said.  Akin to a sirens call the words coiled
       around his thoughts and intentions.

       When Myra took her hand away, she found herself... nowhere. Well
       she knew she was still in the room, but it was as if all
       thoughts or cares in the world faded. The only thing left was a
       logical reasoning. Otherwise, she was the same as a chair or a
       wall as far as feelings or thoughts were concerned. She blankly
       walked over and pressed the teacher's button.
       She looked over to Issyah with a completely blank look on her
       face. It was as if she was a doll or a game character without
       any facial animations attached aside from the mouth movements.
       In a flat voice, Myra said, "Do what she says. It makes the most
       sense."

       Issyahs finger floated over Ego's name as if Lyas words
       physically blocked him from touching it. his eyes glaze over and
       his hands slowly move toward the teachers name and he presses it
       without delay.
       the screens lights up with virtual confetti and fireworks shoot
       off on the screen. from the fireworks jump a chibi boy wearing a
       devil mask "congratulations! the choice was unanimous" the chibi
       said. his voice was metallic and high and full of joy.
       The noise of the confetti and fireworks snap Issyah out of the
       haze. "wh-what ha-"
       "-death will commence shortly" said the chibi, interrupting
       Issyahs question. a clock pops up on the screen reading 5:00 and
       began to countdown. "until then you can ask me any question....I
       may be compelled to answer truthfully"
