WHO: Jeremy and Rachel
WHEN: Sunday afternoon
WHERE: The Ice Room
WHAT: Jeremy comes to the rescue
RATING: Low
STATUS: Incomplete

Jeremy had been sheltering in the corner of his room, flicking through the network on his phone. He was glad to see it wasn't just him getting attacked by furniture. His bed had turned violent that morning, flipping him right off onto the floor, before his chair slammed back into his stomach. He'd gone downstairs, but the objects down there were just as dangerous. A book had flown right at the back of his head when he'd gone into the living room. He'd decided the best place to be was in a corner, eyes peels, ready to defend himself if needs be.

He'd seen Elena's message about the coffee maker, but just before he replied, another message had caught his eye. He'd looked for Rachel earlier when things had gotten a bit mad, but she hadn't been around the cabin. After seeing her post, he knew why.

Using a pillow to shield himself from the book that still held a grudge against him, he made his way downstairs and out of the cabin. He practically ran through the trees towards the Ice Room, sure he saw the odd tree or two moving as he passed. He'd seen Lord of the Rings. He wasn't going to wait around for them to go all "Ent" on his ass.

Bursting into the Ice Room, Jeremy slammed the door behind him and looked around. "Rachel?" he called out.

When Rachel woke up on the floor AGAIN after being bucked off of her bed for the fifteenth time that night she gave up on her sleeping in. She wanted to go back to work soon but felt she still needed that break, so she was going to do the radio station since she could just sit and play music all morning. But something in her mind just told her that maybe she needed to at least practice.

Taking a shower and it being either scalding hot or freezing cold she made it a quick shower. Getting dressed even with clothes flying on her and messing her up, it took her nearly two hours just to get dressed. This was ridiculous, finally getting to sit down and doing her hair she put her shoes on and walked outside.

When she got to the backstage of the Ice Room she put her sheet music down and grabbed the microphone, it was something that she always did because she wanted to picture the audience and her doing the actual show. But something happened, all of a sudden the microphones and cords were wrapping around her and she fell to the floor. She had sent out an SOS text and luckily someone answered.

She tried to wriggle her way out of the cords but that wasn't happening. Finally she heard a voice, "Oh thank god." She said softly to herself. "JEREMY I'm back here." She tried getting up but then the cords just seemed to get tighter and tighter. "Be careful, these cords are evil."

Jeremy followed the sound of the voice, frowning. Eventually he found her backstage, wrapped all around with microphone cords. It was an effort not to laugh. Still, he knew he wouldn't like it if it was him all trust up like that. "Hi," he said, crouching down, beginning to try to unwind the cords around Rachel. They held on tight, but managed to pry them away with a bit of effort. "I'm Jeremy," he introduced himself, shaking his head. This was a very strange way to be meeting your cabin mate. He'd talked to her before, but never face to face. Still, rescuing someone was probably one of the better first impressions he'd given.

Rachel didn't like this at all, she would have a talk with Peterson after all of this was over. How could someone do this to them, after all the hard work that each person does here and they get paid by having non living things attack them. When Jeremy walked in she was wiggling trying to get out and she looked at him. "Hey, its nice to finally meet you Jeremy. Just wish that it was with better circumstances than this." She started laughing a little bit. "I have no idea what is going on here. But thank you for coming here and helping me."

Jeremy battled one of the cables as it tried to wrap around his wrist. Glaring at it, he pulled it away and continued trying to unravel the mess of leads around her. Still, he took a moment to grin at her. "Yeah, bet you didn't think you'd be tied up when we met, huh?" He laughed to himself before the sound trailed off as he came up against a particularly tight bundle of knots. "How the hell did you let them get you into this mess?" he asked, raising his eyebrows. They must have wrapped around her a dozen times or more. She really was lucky she'd been able to send out the cry for help. Who knew how long she'd have been stuck there if she hadn't been able to.

Seeing him wrestling with the cords himself she couldn't help but laugh. "No I didn't, but its alright. At least I finally get to meet you face to face. I promise though that when you meet Julie, it will be in a more appropriate setting like hanging out at the cabin or something." She laughed. Then she sighed, "I don't know, one minute I was practicing and then looking at my sheet music and the next they are attacking me and I had no way of fighting back with them. Good thing that you came though I was starting to lose circulation in my legs." She tried to help him untangle herself, they really did get the best of her this time. "Hopefully this will all end soon."

"Yeah," he agreed. Elena had warned him that strange things happened here, but animated objects had come as quite a shock, especially when they went on the attack.

Finally, he managed to get Rachel untied, and took her hand to help her to her feet. "There," he said, kicking the slightly disgruntled looking wires away from them so they couldn't get a hold again. "Maybe you should abandon practising for today," he suggested. "You could come back to the cabin with me?" He got the impression that staying with someone else was safest right now.

Looking around to see if she could free her hands to finally get out of this mess she moved her head so that her hair wasn't in her face anymore she smiled. "Julie is so much fun to hang out with. I think you'd like her. As a roommate of course."

When he finally got her freed from that horrible mess of cords she stood up and fixed herself up again. "I thought that I would be stuck there forever." She started to laugh. "Thanks again." She said giving him a friendly hug. "Sorry I tend to give hugs when people rescue me from such things." Then she nodded her head. "Of course, I wouldn't want to be alone anyways knowing that something else could happen."

Jeremy was a little taken aback by the hug. Generally he wasn't a touchy feely person by nature. In fact, he wasn't all that sociable by nature, but she was his roommate and who knew how long he'd be stuck here, so he was trying to make an effort. He awkwardly patted her on the back before stepping away again, pushing his hands into his pockets. "S'alright," he said, trying a small smile.

He took a few more steps backwards, nodding to the door. "Coming then?" he asked. He wasn't really in the mood for hanging around in there for Attack of the Wires Part II. Still, saying that, the cabin wasn't much better. Hopefully they'd be able to find somewhere to baracade themselves. And maybe even this Julie too, if she was around. Jeremy wasn't really up for another damsel in distress rescue mission today, after all.
