Susan saw the note on her door and was beyond confused, she had never heard of video games before and it showed on her face. But she also saw there were 3 others, all she had not met yet so this should be a sight. So once the golems showed up she sat in th video game area and waited for the rest to arrive. The simple skirt and sweater was more fitting the 1940's and well this young queen would not explain Narnia unless asked but she was quite curious. "So different, nothing like home or even Narnia" as she watched the doorway while sipping some mint tea.

Susan also has no idea that she would be the oldest of this little group at 16 or that 2 of the kids are close in age to her own sister.

Astor heard a faint sound outside her bedroom door and frowned. She was a light sleeper and between the sound and the bright sunlight, she was awake. Looking over at the clock, she frowned further. Too early for her taste, if she wasn't going to school.

Still, she was curious, so she climbed out of bed, dressed, and opened the door, looking outside. No one was there, but there was a note on the door and she took it off, going back into her room and closing the door behind her. She crossed the room and sat back down on the bed, reading it and when she was finished, crumpled it and dropped it into the waste paper basket between the beds. New people were one thing and she really did want to make friends, but not playing video games.

Video games were Cody's thing and if Cody wasn't coming, she wasn't going.

She laid back down on the bed, not bothering to throw a visible temper tantrum for no one to see, and stared at the ceiling, chin wobbling and eyes filling with tears as she thought of how much Cody would've loved to play if he was here.

Her eyes meandered over to the empty bed and she violently rolled over, throwing herself onto her stomach and burying her face in her pillow to scream out of sheer frustration.

It seemed like an eternity had passed and she was still crying when she felt something grab her. Not again! she thought, eyes wide with fear and tears halted with panic. She wrenched her arm away and stared back at the thing. It was one of the creatures she'd seen the other day when she'd gotten here - near the garage with the guy who had the weird accent.

The thing grabbed her again and Astor screamed, this time, in anger, when it held her fast and started dragging her from her room. Astor grabbed and held onto just about anything she could, trying to keep the creature from taking her away from her room, protesting with angry kicks, punches, and shouts all along the way until it deposited her in a room where there was another girl standing. It closed the door behind her and she slammed her fists against it. "I'M NOT PLAYING STUPID VIDEO GAMES WITHOUT CODY!" she screamed fruitlessly.

When she was too tired to continue her tantrum, Astor kicked the door one last time and then passed the girl, throwing herself down on the couch and crossing her arms over her chest, sniffling and wiping her tear-stained cheeks on the shoulder of her t-shirt. "Hate this place," she muttered quietly to herself, heavy frown lines in her forehead.
