Genuine Haunted House

[Harri-chan]

Elliot felt herself comforted slightly by the strong arm that wrapped around her, but even with that, it was impossible to escape the fear while they stood in this room, with the creaks and rustling. "I can't see much at all... it's pretty dark... ", she whispered, and then pointed over to the open box. "That's the one I opened... and a dress came out and forced itself onto me... this dress", she explained, looking down.

Yvette finds that whatever she is caught up in dosent seem to be done with her yet... as the mask glows, as a circle of black flame appears around her! Below, the dust on the stone floor is blown away, as lines of deep red begin weaving their way around the stones under her feet...

Ha? *Yvette understandably seems a little surprised as the floor bursts into flames before her!* Oh, what is this now...?

[Anonymouse]

He whirls and slips! Just as the door slams shut behind him... almost catching him in the process. And did he hear a sinister chuckle behind him? Regardless... he escapes the shed relatively unscathed! But for some dirt on his shoes.

Tapping a shoe lightly on the ground, the Shadow moves swiftly and silently--looking to see if there's a backdoor to this place--or a side door at the very least.

[Knight Errant]

Dact nods... carefully moving to the chest and shining his lamp into the contense!

[Lola]

Ryan watches the gigantic claw warily. Looking around, she decides that, while creepy, the place seemed safe. Stepping inside, he heels clopping on the floor.

"Thank you... been a real crazy day." she mutters.

The demon half shrugs, smiling a bit... its fangs glittering. Before it vanishes in a pillar of flame... presumably to go talk to his 'mistress.' Leaving Ryan alone in the large hall.

Ha? *Yvette understandably seems a little surprised as the floor bursts into flames before her!* Oh, what is this now...?

The circle finishes drawing itself, as a chalked outline of a red eye in the middle of it suddenly opens... the red pupil looking open up at her... then suddenly the whole floor swirls into black and red energy... forming a vortex and pulling her into it!

Said shadow finds a backyard porch... with a door set in it! Imagine the chances...

Dact nods... carefully moving to the chest and shining his lamp into the contense!

Just then... two things happen. One, something rustles in the chest Dact is poking into... just as something in the back corner of the attic begins charging towards the pair!

Ryan looks around and takes a seat at the grand table, the camera recording everything!

"Maybe I can get some answers here..."

[Anonymouse]

Skittering up to the porch...the Shadow pauses, studying to see any sign of someone on the other side--light, noise, etc...but barring that, he tries the knob.

Oh no... *Yvette tries to jump away from the vortex!*

[Harri-chan]

Elliot didn't really want to go anywhere near the chest, but what she feared even more was being left alone, so she kept clinging onto Dact, shuffling along at his side as he went to inspect the open box that her dress had come out of. She let out a sudden yelp as a rustling came from the box, followed by a very high-pitched scream as something charged them in the darkness.

[Knight Errant]

Dact reacts quickly... slamming the top of the chest as he turns to face the darkness! Shining his light forth! And... wincing a bit at the girly scream from Elliot. >_>

[Feng]

The ghost of Bones glares at the man....

.... before reluctantly floating over to the body!

[Lola]

Ryan looks around and takes a seat at the grand table, the camera recording everything!

"Maybe I can get some answers here..."

Minutes pass... stretching almost agonizingly long in the slightly warm and dark chamber. But she dosent feel uncomfortable... Finally the large doors on the other side of the room open slowly, the butler demon from before walking in, straightening up. "Announcing, Demon Queen Lola!" He says, as in walks the Green avatar herself! Looking rather... amused.

Skittering up to the porch...the Shadow pauses, studying to see any sign of someone on the other side--light, noise, etc...but barring that, he tries the knob.

The skittering shadow sees nothing! And tries the knob! It turns begrudgingly... stiff from rust and disuse. It opens to a small hallway... to the right, a worn and peeling sign proclaims 'pantry' beside another door. To the left, is an open doorway that leads into the darkness of the kitchen...

Oh no... *Yvette tries to jump away from the vortex!*

Yvette is unfortunately, trapped! And is sucked into the vortex's swirling energy... Finally being deposited on her rear in what looks like... a scene out of ancient Japan. She is sitting on a cobblestone road flanked by cherry trees in bloom... up ahead is a river, spanned by a bridge. It is night, and the path is lit by ornamental paper lanterns on long wooden poles.

Out of the darkness, what looks like a clawed shadow lunges for Dact! Slashing towards him with long black claws... while behind him, the closed chest shakes slightly... something within rustling... Elliot suddenly has the strange urge to... open the chest.

The ghost of Bones glares at the man....

.... before reluctantly floating over to the body!

The ghost of Bones settles into... her new body! She feels full of pins and needles... before she takes a gasping breath and feels her heart start beating! Tim cackles, rubbing his hands together. "Its... ALIIIIVE!!!"

...Well, this is a fine mess I've gotten myself in... *Yvette stands up and, after getting her bearings, heads for the bridge.*

Ryan was fidding with a strand of her hair when Lola entered! She quickly stands as she does. One thing she had learned in journalism was that it was polite to stand for a queen, and just good survival sense to be polite to a demon.

"G-Greetings Your Majesty."

The shadow pauses for a moment...but no stone shall be left unturned--and no pantry left unexplored!
