The older version of Forsaken sighed. "I was wondering why she bought the Pitch Dark dye..." she offered.
Yang looked unamused. "You said you had the stuff to fix this?" she asked as Forsaken sat up.
"Did anyone get the number of the freighter that hit me?" Forsaken woozily asked. "Hi Nora. Hi Good Ending." The girl still seemed really out of it.
Ruby chuckled. "You're safe Kelsey. I think Yang is simmered down and still sorry about the commotion," she offered to the new comer.

The door finally clicked open. A small, very round creature bounced out on all fours. "Pommy doesn't like being teleported," he groaned, looking sad. Nora walked out, picking him up.
"Don't worry, little guy. Maybe the hotel will pick someone else to mess with," she smiled.

"Um..." Geez, her first night here was already a little too eventful for her liking. Within an hour since checking into the hotel, Kelsey had seen a woman get pranked, two identical women and a largely identical male, a girl with cat ears, and a... weird... little... puffball creature. As if the circumstances surrounding her initial arrival weren't bizarre enough, this was just way too much. Her brain needed a break.
"Th-That's okay," she sighed, rubbing her head as she walked between the crowd, not even bothering to hide her exhaustion at this point. "I-I'm just... gonna..."

The older Forsaken blinked. "Sorry for the commotion miss.... I can promise these guys usually aren't so noisy or rowdy.... And Nora... The Hotel pranked us too..." she offered to her red headed roommate.
The others parted out of the way for Kelsey.
"If you need anything just ask," the older female offered.

"Wait, it did?" Nora asked. Pommy was happily cuddled into Nora's arms.

"Thank you..." Kelsey softly replied, smiling and nodding to Beth. She then hastily unlocked her door and disappeared into her room.
Having returned to her privacy, Kelsey poured herself a glass of water, curled up on the bed and turned on the TV. Given her situation, it couldn't have hurt to go over everything that had happened to her that day... but it was all just too much to process at once. Now was the time to relax, and she was going to take it. There was plenty of time to figure out what she was doing on this island.
Still... being so far from home... it didn't take long for a sense of loneliness to sink in.
"...Tri?"
...........................
Kelsey sighed and sipped her water, silently wondering how she was going to manage this.

The older Forsaken blinked. "That would explain why we're on the same Floor as Team RWBY and my counterparts...." she realized.
Forsaken was getting up. "Weird but awesome shopkeeper say what?" she asked. She was still wobbling a bit as she stood.
"Wait. You guys are staying here, Beth?" Weiss asked in an astonished tone.
"Penthouse actually," the older Forsaken, Beth, offered calmly. "And to answer the question Forsaken, I said you and Todd are my counterparts."
"So what timeline?" Todd asked.
"And why hasn't the building blown up yet from three Witch of Blood god Tiers being in the building?" Yang added.
"My session was won. And as for why this place hasn't blown up- You're guess is as good as mine," Beth answered.

"Hi guys!" Nora smiled. Pommy wiggled. "Want down, little guy?"
"Yeah! Pommy wants to hug his other friend!" Not plopped on his feet, the tiny tokomon/pikachu hybrid rushed over to Ruby, bumping his head on her leg.

Typical. Send that girl off on a whirlwind adventure and she'll waste her down time lying around in her pajamas. Sure, Tri wasn't opposed to relaxation (heck, he was probably lazier than she was), but given the situation that had been handed to them, it frustrated him slightly that Kelsey wasn't taking advantage of it. The least she could be doing was getting to know these folks. They looked interesting.
Well, even if he couldn't be seen or heard by the group in the hallway, Tri figured he might as well hang out with them. Someone had to figure out what their deal was. After that, maybe he'd snoop on some of the other tenants.
After all, Kelsey needed more friends. She couldn't spend the whole trip talking to herself.

Beth blinked. She saw an odd bond hovering near. I'm here on vacation not to deal with other problems.... but I'm already here... she thought as she maneuvered through the group and towards the oddly invisible being. May they not pick up on that status...
Ruby happily picked up Pommy and cuddled the little guy.
"So... anyone want to do something?"

"We got anything to play?" Nora offered. Pommy's little nubs wiggled.
"Pommy likes Sorry!" he cheered.

Tri tilted his head as Beth drew near, somehow managing to look directly at him. His expression was one of curiosity, almost perfectly mirroring hers. As if merely to tempt the both of them, Tri slowly waved his hand in front of Beth's face and murmured, "Hello?" Neither seemed to catch her attention, so clearly her deal was something else entirely.
He narrowed his eyes and leaned in, studying Beth up close and personal...
Oh, so she could see bonds! Interesting. Seemed she had traced the bond between him and Kelsey, what with it being as potent as it was. Boy, people in this world were so much cooler than the humans in Kelsey's world!
Well, as long as he had been found out again, might as well officially make himself known.
At Tri's command, Beth's shadow writhed along the wall, smiling and waving at the group.

"Is Beth's shadow waving?" Ruby asked.
The color drained from Forsaken and Todd's faces.
Beth looked to her own shadow. "Well. That answers that question. Hello," she offered to the shadow. "I'm guessing you have a bond to our newest neighbor? Since you weren't here this morning."
Yang looked over. "And she's gone off the deep end. Are all Dersites like this?"
This earned glares from Forsaken and Todd.

"C'mon, guys, boss wouldn't do something unless she felt it necessary. Maybe the shadow's friendly! If not-" Her slasher smile was all it took to incite flashbacks.
Pommy meanwhile was shivering at the moving shadow.

Tri had to snicker at their reactions. Far be it from him to invoke complete insanity in innocent bystanders, but generally messing with people was always pretty funny.
Continuing his work, at Tri's command, the shadow pointed towards Kelsey's door, then to itself with a gleeful nod. Then it pointed up as more shadows gathered above it, melding together to form the word TRI.
