Utena poked her head into the room where Minna and Ilsa were, accompanied by Juri and Akito. As soon as she saw Minna, she ran towards her, throwing her arms around the other girl with a squeak.
"Minna! There you are! I couldn't find you for so long and I thought I lost you andidon'twantthattohappen...."
She sputtered inelegantly, as Juri walked over to Ilsa, making a concerted effort to not make eye contact.
"We...lost track of you guys. We've been looking around, and...well...I...It's good to see you're safe."
She said softly to Ilsa...

ilsa gave juri a big hug. ' well you found us, so we'd best stick together.. she smiled at her.
minna nuzzled utena, and smiled at her. ' i prpose we all stick together. theres safety in numbers ' she said.

Sue opened the door to find Ilsa hugging another person-- she couldn't tell who it was, wether it was someone she knew or not, what gender, or any basic description of what they looked like. She felt a slight tinge of jealously, but immediately smothered it as she walked out with a smile.
"Hi. Did you guys come up here to help us with the search?" she asked, walking next to Ilsa. "I hope so: we haven't found anything noteable yet. It'd help if we knew what exactly we were looking for."
She glanced over to Minna, who was nuzzling someone else she didn't recognize. In a room with one girl she suspected she had a crush on, one she knew by name and not by sight, and two other people who just showed up out of the blue, Sue felt an odd sense of drive-- of motivation. Three's a crowd, sure, but five was a team.

Juri seized up when Ilsa hugged her, her tail fluffing straight out behind her as she blushed and let out a soft squeak.

Utena, on the other hand, pulled back, then leaned in and kissed Minna on the lips, blushing as she pulled away.
"U-uhmm...yeah...sticking together sounds good!"
She stammered out...

Nick22 · **Reply #184 on:** August 30, 2013, 11:26:50 PM

come on everyone" Ilsa said breaking away from Juri.' lets get searching..
-
minna smiled at Utena, but made no comment on the kiss they had just shared.

Sue followed behind. She noticed that the walls were starting to look different. Coming from her, the fact that anything so basic as a wall looked fundamanetally different usually meant it was begining to look decidedly different. They were shiny and gave of a soft flint from the strangely shaped electric lamps: metal walls, she guessed. The floor felt different under her feet as well, although when she looked down she didn't register it looking any different from before other than a slightly darker shade of color. The sounds of their footseps were echoing up the halls, and back down again. She didn't like it-- it was such a ominous sound to her ears.
She looked at the two newcomers (she differentiated Minna by the tone of her skin). And asked: "So, I don't mean to pry, but who are you two?"

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #186 on:** August 30, 2013, 11:36:03 PM

Juri blushed, following behind Ilsa quietly, tail still poofed out behind her as she walked. Utena, however, hummed a little as she followed the others.
"Hm? Oh, us? I'm Utena, and the quiet one there is Juri. The one behind us is Akito. We're friends of Minna and Ilsa from their world. We ended up following them here!"
She said perkily.

Nick22 · **Reply #187 on:** August 30, 2013, 11:59:46 PM

yes, we've known these guys for awhile.' Minna said to sue. ' they'll be your friends as well in due time I'm sure' She smiled. the temperature in this part of the house was colder by a few degrees.

Sue rubbed her palms over her arms, minding her long Therizinosauridae claws. "Well that's odd. We just went up a staircase. Hot air rises; you'd expect it to get warmer." Her feathers protected her from feeling any major chills, but it was the fact itself that bothered her. She began twisting her neck around to see any silvery, slotted rectangle that could be an air vent, or a white tooth shaped object that could be an air conditioner. Sue saw neither.
"You guys are gonna have to be telling me what's around. I can't recognize anything."

Nick22 · **Reply #189 on:** August 31, 2013, 01:54:46 AM

well, somethings causing this place to cool. I don't think its a ghost or anything like that, but you never can tell.' minna said as she cast a spell creating a light orb. ' Ilsa opened a nearby door and looked inside./. ' we need to find something to eat, i say. breakfast wasn't very filling.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #190 on:** August 31, 2013, 07:22:09 PM

Juri smiled and nodded a little, blushing as she muttered something under her breath, glancing at Ilsa's backside.

Utena, meanwhile, had drawn a staff from behind her back, shifting closer to Minna.
"I hope it's not a g-ghost..."
She stammered...

Nick22 · **Reply #191 on:** August 31, 2013, 08:29:15 PM

just stick together everyone ' Minna replied as she drew her staff. ilsa summoned hers, and held it in front of her.. ' i'm not sensing any presence here' lsa said, but we should keep going just to be sure..

Sue was not a mystic. While she had in her heart a desire to believe magic in some sense was real, it was only in these past two days that she dared to think magic was real in the most literal sense possible.
If magic was real, surely ghosts would be too, right?... Right?
Sue's lips pulled back to reveal a toothy smile.
"Even if they were real, I wouldn't be afraid of any ghost. What it could do to me, sure, but what do I have to fundamentally fear out of the unusual when everything I lay my eyes on already looks unusual to me?"
Now, if it was a ghost, she reasoned, that would tell them quite a bit. The mere presence of a hostile undead entity would say a lot about this place and perhaps the nature of it's owner. Maybe this place was built on a burial ground? Maybe the person who had abducted them knew necromancy? Maybe the ghost could simply another unfortunate soul (har har) to get sucked into this place against his/her/it's will?
That, or there were no ghosts. She was not a mystic; she was more inclined to believe there was an easier explanation. Her eyes turned to the two strangers, one of which was the girl Utera.
'Interesting she'd jump to ghost before anything else. She reminds me of that flier boy back in the valley. I wonder what her story is?'

Akito chuckled, reaching to his hip and gripping his scabbard tightly.
"Let's all just relax, here. It's probably nothing major. Just some sort of atmospheric anomaly. Possibly who or whatever lives here needs the colder temperatures to survive?"
He said calmly, though he was clearly on edge. From behind the others, a clattering of armor could be heard as Drago ran up to the rest of the group.
"Oh. Good, it's you lot. I was just wandering this place, thinking on things, and next thing I knew, I was lost and couldn't seem to find my way back. At last, a friendly set of faces."
He said warmly...

Nick22 · **Reply #194 on:** August 31, 2013, 10:17:13 PM

good, another one to ad to our group' minna said aas Drago joined them. we need to find out how to get out of here, if we can..

LoyfeCycleProtector · **Reply #195 on:** August 31, 2013, 10:22:49 PM

Sue blinked at the newcomer. Did he look familiar? No. No he did not. At least she assumed it was a 'he', in any case.
thump
Sue stopped in place, and tilted her head.
thump da-thump
"Do you hear that?" she asked, whirling her head around so her ears could get a bead on the direction. It kept on going: a deep, slightly metalic sounding precussive beat-- she was almost immediately reminded of the Terminator theme: a theme so famous even a non-movie goer like her knew it. But it was soft, too; very diffuse.
She placed her hand on the wall.
"I... I think it's above us," she said uncertainly.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #196 on:** August 31, 2013, 10:38:42 PM

Akito's ears perked, flicking as he tried to pinpoint the sound, nodding.
"Above us. Definitely. Not sure how far, but definitely up."
He said calmly, right hand reaching for his sword. Juri tensed up, immediately moving in front of Ilsa, drawing a set of throwing daggers from her sleeves.
"Ilsa. Stay close."
She said, calm and focused. Utena grinned, rolling her shoulders.
"Well, the good thing is we can hit it."
She chuckled...

Nick22 · **Reply #197 on:** August 31, 2013, 11:07:47 PM

we neee to find a staircase to see whates up there..' minna said, as she moved out from behind Utena.
Jurii, i can handle myself girl;. you do remermber that incident in Naugoa, right? Ilsa replied. ' lets look for a flight of stairs.,.

LoyfeCycleProtector · **Reply #198 on:** August 31, 2013, 11:20:16 PM

Sue smothered the slightest hint of satisfaction that Ilsa rejected Juri... and immediately felt annoyed with herself for feeling so. What was she, four? This was hardly the time to let herself feel jealous!
"Well, let's not dally, then," Sue said as she continued walking. Her mind was on the noise upstairs.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #199 on:** August 31, 2013, 11:42:34 PM

Juri blushed as she stepped back meekly.
"S-Sorry...I just...N-never mind..."
She stammered weakly, ears drooping. Utena stepped forward, staff ready, ears twitching as she walked...
