HOTEL LEX - FLOOR 5 (1/?) (Patreon)

You can't risk separating at this point. If it's going to be treacherous, you might as well brave it together. You lead your companion into the larger crawlspace.

The cave starts to transform from rocky and uneven terrain into a structured tunnel. The rough edges smooth out into 90 degree angles, and rivets start to appear along each panel. The sound of your movements echoes and you become more and more anxious. Each turn you take now is at sharp angles and you start to wonder where you are. Eventually, you see a glimmer of light and crawl over to see the source. You stare down into what looks like a storage room, a modern storage room. You realize that you're looking down through a vent grate from an air duct. You shake your head, unsurprised at the turn of events at this point. You whisper to the bunny what you see and he pushes next to you to peer down.

"W-where are we?" he mutters.

You shake your head, but before you move another inch, you hear a door swing open and a booming voice yell from outside your view, "Find that piece, NOW! Don't make me scrap you for parts!"

You watch as a figure stumbles into sight and starts hurriedly sorting through the mound of boxes. You look closer and almost gasp as you notice that the figure is made of plastic. His fur has a dull shine and his tail hangs behind him in place. You stare as the toy fumbles through a box of different sized gears. Out of panic, he spills its contents onto the floor with a loud crash.

"What was that!? Don't make me come in there!" bellows the voice.

"I found it, I found it!" cries the toy, his voice sounding more like a voicebox inside a doll than an actual voice.

The toy fox doesn't find what he's looking for in the spillage and quickly gets back up to look through another box.

"W-we g-got to help him!" says the bunny.

> Watch the events unfold before you.> Drop down into the room and help the fox. > Continue moving through the vents.
