[There's a sudden click on the forge and then there's the sound of heavy breathing. Then a shock-a noise-and then a rustle-like clothing moving around. Then a mad scramble and suddenly barge-there's a face.

It's a young face. An attractive face, belonging to a powerfully built young male with short blond hair-matted-absolutely matted with blood and gore. His gaze is wide-eyed.]

...Where's 12?

[he hesitates] Why am I back in my room? Is this-is this another test? Another arena? Or..

[The next part is said half-hopeful, half horrified. Deep down he knows it's not true, and it won't be a particular shock. Still.]

...Did I win?

The one you're on, it's called the Barge. And I'm Cassie.

I'm not sure where 12 is, but it's not here I can tell you that.

Pre-collapse North America?

...None of you guys know about history. [arrogant snort] America after the floods, the wars, and the collapse of western society.

Wow. I don't even know where to start.[ Different worlds, different histories. ] So I'll just take your word for it.

[ If it's all that bad back home, maybe being on the Barge will be a very good thing for this man. Not that she knows about this home, or anything. ]

What's your name?
