DT Week 1 - Jailbreak!

[Teri Napliotis]

It's a quiet night aside from nightmares echoing through the dreams of the residents of Sidney Hall.
In the pale moonlight a dark cloud emerges from one of the buildings on the southern part of campus, flying north over the Quad and suddenly the sounds of the insects scattered around rises up all over campus and along the Thames. Chitinous wings unfolding they take to the air to join the call coming from the locusts and join the spreading cloud that soon blocks out the light of the moon as tens of thousands of creatures soar through the night sky.

Here and there bats and the occasional bird drop out of the cloud and down to the ground as the swirling shape sets out towards the city, Teri's body and mind set free from the cell that held her. With an almost truimphant sounding screech forming out of the insects chirping and fluttering the cloud splits up into streams of chitin spreading through London's streets and away from campus.




((Just in case any char is taking a late-night stroll and wants to notice the escape.))

[Jacob Cohen]

Jacob is waliking the street adjacent to campus, just as the swarm engulfs the sky overhead.

"Oh, that can't be good.." he mutters, turning and breaking for the nearest campus building.
