Amelia In The Bathroom

Okay, so me and a few others have been getting these e-mails from Amelia at first, and now Shawn. They're apparently trapped in a bathroom and kitchen respectively. Neither of them remember how they got there, and Amelia has a kid, who believe is named Annie, and was last seen in a cab. When I asked Shawn if he had a kid, he said "i don't have a kid. that'd TOTALLY mess up my game. chicks hate single dads, dude."

Game on.

I got this back from Shawn after asking what he remembered:
Quote:
making out with this hot chick, but i was so drunk that i was feeling really tired. i probably passed out right in the middle, man! i can never show my face around those guys ever again, i'll never hear the end of it!


So I sent back:
Quote:
Maybe she drugged you? Also, I think your dignity isn't what you should be worrying about right now.

What can you see around you? Anything useful?

I don't understand why I'm here... I don't understand, I never meant to make anyone mad... if it's money you want, I have 50,000 dollars saved up! I can get it to you! Just please don't hurt me or my daughter!

I don't remember putting you there, of course I could have forgotten, tell me what happened to you?

I was in a taxi with Annie and that's the last I remember. I remember her smiling at me... Where did you put my daughter?!

relax, it wasn't me, what makes you think it was? tell me about the place they have you.

To: Sareff <shylilembrace>
I'm in a bathroom with a bunch of glass on the floor. I guess it was the mirror or something. I woke up laying on it so I have a lot of cuts, but I don't think any of them are serious.

I think you put me here because your email was in my contacts.

So you have a computer? get on the local police website...or try the door?
Amelia bathroom <basementbathroom> Wed, Oct 29, 2008 at 9:00 PM
To: Sareff <shylilembrace>
I think it'll only let me on some websites... and I already tried the door, it's locked!


... I just heard a scream..

shit, check the door, see if it's locked, see if the bathroom has a window, try to get out of there.
Amelia bathroom <basementbathroom> Wed, Oct 29, 2008 at 9:04 PM

There's no window, and the door is locked...

is there anything in there that could be used as a weapon?
Amelia bathroom <basementbathroom> Wed, Oct 29, 2008 at 9:06 PM
To: Sareff <shylilembrace>
Just the glass, I guess.

I don't know what you can do but wait then...or transfer me the 50k.

Since they're all Gmail accounts, think they could use GChat?

Also, got this from Amelia:

I DO want to help you. Are you hurt? What's the last thing you remember?

Email me back! Tell my why I'm in this bathroom! How do I get out?!

I'm e-mailing her back and forth right now. She accused me of putting her in the bathroom with a laptop and is currently asking me where her friend Annie is from the taxi. Sounds pretty trailheady to me, no?

Anything useful in the fridge and cabinets? Also, try the doors. They're probably locked, but you never know!


ETA: More from Shawn:

just some food in the cabinets, but I can't open two of them. and in the fridge was a butcher knife. both doors are locked.

Okay, probably hold on to the knife, just in case you need it. Do you hear anything?

Replies to my questions about the rooms:

Me and Amelia in reverse order:

Quote:
I was going to the doctor, my daughter had a cold. No, I'm not restrained, and this bathroom is pretty small. Barely big enough for the toilet and sink. The only stuff I see around is the glass, from the mirror, I'm guessing.
On Wed, Oct 29, 2008 at 9:10 PM, Fish Family wrote:
Tell me about the room you are in. How big is it? Are you restrained at all? Are there any objects laying around that seem out of place?

Also Where were you going in the Taxi?


Me and Shawn:

Quote:
There are two doors, both locked. Bummer.

There's no food in the fridge, just a big ass butcher knife. There's some cans of food and some cereal in the cabinets, but I can't open two of them. There's two sinks, and I think one has a garbage disposal. Nothing really seems out of place. I woke up with some cockroaches on me, man.

I yelled, but I didn't hear anything. Maybe I'm too far away?

I don't know if you were making out with Amelia, but I think not. She is trapped in a bathroom. =If you can yell her name to see if she can hear you.

telling him to pick up the knife is a bad idea...someone will get hurt....five bucks says he ends up stabbing Amelia

Asked him if he could pry open any doors/cabinets with the knife;

Quote:
i'd be too afraid of breaking it to do that, the doors and cabinets are all pretty thick.

Me and Shawn:

yeah, the water works, and way ahead of you about the knife.

i'm just a college student right now. the only real special thing about me is that i'm a damn pimp! and i'm pretty good at running, i'm in school on a track scholarship.

no, my mom and pop live on the bad side of detroit, so we don't have much money.

Tell me about yourself. What do you do? Is there anything special about you that would make someone want to take you? Does your family have money?
