Snippet #2693212

As Kaede continued to explore the hotel, she grew more and more concerned. No one seemed to be around or if they were, they were trying very hard to stay hidden. Kaede looked out a nearby window to at least check on the weather. It was still snowing but at least the dawn was breaking through. She felt somewhat safer knowing that she could somewhat see what was going on. Though, she wondered if the snow ever dwindled down or if it would always be this harsh. She arrived in the lobby after exploring the hotel for a bit. She didn't learn much, but maybe she could get a good idea on if someone was there through a guest book. She was about to enter the room when she heard a voice speak to her. It sounded drained and weak.
"Food..."
On instinct, Kaede reached for her sword and slowly turned to face the source. It was a male with dark hair and almost lifeless maroon eyes. She studied him a bit.
"Do...you...have...any?"
She then watched as he moved to lean on the desk, seeming rather exhausted. The crowbar worried her somewhat as she wondered if he would attack her after she helped him.
"You're...alive, right?"
Kaede winced a bit. Was he crazy somehow? Of course she was alive. Still, he did seem on the verge of collapse... Sighing, she moved to her backpack and pulled out the lunchbox she had.
"This isn't much but it should at least regain your strength."
Inside the lunchbox was a small salad, some leftover chicken curry, egg rolls and a small cream puff for dessert.
"Don't worry. I wouldn't try to poison myself. You can have as much as you need but something tells me food is limited. I'll ask you some questions after you eat. Is that fair?"
