ilsa pretended not to notice the look on sues face as the group continued walking.. she and minna had a strong bond, the two of them could tell what the other was thinking by just a glance..

Sue didn't bother looking up at the ceiling (why bother?) but she kept thinking about it, in any case. It'd probably be too little to late to suggest heading back for back up
(is she and Minna already a pair? I mean the two are awfully close and--will you focus, Sue!?)
in case whatever they found wasn't friendly. Yes, they had magic users and warriors. Maybe it was just her own squirrely feeling of ineptitude, but she didn't like the idea that something else might be living in this house with them.
"Anyone have any guesses on wether it's friendly or not?" She asked.

Nick22 · **Reply #202 on:** September 01, 2013, 12:26:27 AM

your guess is as a good as mine Sue' Minna said to her ' but just to be on the safe side, assume its NOT friendly. That way, if its friendly, its a surprise." they kept moving along..

Juri walked along behind the others, eyeing the ceiling warily as they walked.
(Damnit, Juri...Why can't you ever just say what you mean...what you feel? Just look her in the eyes and say "Ilsa, I love you?" Why is that so hard? Oh, right. Because she's a good, smart, beautiful woman while you're just...a failure at everything, who doesn't even have a family to speak of anymore.)
She berated herself mentally. Utena was nearer the front of the group, seemingly lost in her own thoughts as well.
(Heh...well, it may be a one-time thing, and only because we're in this place...but at least I got to kiss Minna once. Maybe I'll get around to telling her how I feel later...but for now, I'm okay with one kiss.)
She mused, smiling faintly. Drago hung near the back with Sue, glancing over at her.
"I presume you're talking about whatever resides upstairs, yes? I'd place my wager on that it is not...actively malevolent, at the least. Regardless, I doubt we need to worry. Even with my limited martial prowess, I think our friends will be able to manage handily."
He said calmly, voice echoing inside his hollow armor and skull slightly...

the hallway stretched onward, turning slightly to the left and right and other hallways branched off ' the temperature suddenly began to drop and the footsteps reappeared louder and louder..

BANG
One of the percussive beats came so hard and so loud that the lights on the ceiling flickered and the walls shook.
Sue waved her arms to balance herself, and jerked her head around like a mouse looking for a hawk.
"Oh dear," Sue uttered. "How sturdy are these walls?"
Another BANG, followed by a distant, apoplectic cry of "YES!"
The vibrations nearly knocked Sue off of her feet.

Adrian coughed into his hand, glancing around.
"Heh. We may want want to be careful of...disturbing someone in the middle of...things."
He said softly...

the only way we find out who or what it is, is by looking upstairs and find out the source of that nioise' Ilsa said as they kept on walking ' the noise kept getting louder.

LoyfeCycleProtector · **Reply #208 on:** September 01, 2013, 09:29:22 PM

So they walked, and as they walked there was the occasional loud crash from up above, and even more occasionally a voice that followed afterward. It was rather hard to make out exactly what the voice was saying: even Sue, who was used to identifying genders based on voice tones, couldn't tell wether it was a male or female yelling.
Either way, it was in Sue's professional opinion as a trained mentalist that whoever was making that noise was likely not all right in the head.
"YES! ALRIGHT, NOW AGAIN, BUT PUT MORE KICK IN IT!"
"Charming," Sue muttered.
Ahead of them that Sue was only just able to infer was a spiral staircase.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #209 on:** September 01, 2013, 09:30:36 PM

Adrian nodded a little as he held his sword. Juri, meanwhile, walked back up towards Ilsa, blushing.
"Hey...Ilsa. I...I need to talk to you about something..."
She said quietly...

Nick22 · **Reply #210 on:** September 01, 2013, 09:32:20 PM

theres a staircase here ' minna said ' lets start climbing shall we?' she said to the othes as she began to climb.. ilsa was next after her..the starcase wound in a spiral motion upwards..

LoyfeCycleProtector · **Reply #211 on:** September 01, 2013, 09:35:15 PM

Sue couldn't tell who was who other than Ilsa, so thought nothing of it that one of faces she didn't recognize whispered something to her.
As she placed a hand on the stair rail, the pounding became more frequent.
"YES, YES, THAT'S IT! KEEP IT UP!"
Sue tried to ignore the uneasy feeling in her belly and climbed.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #212 on:** September 01, 2013, 09:39:42 PM

Drago smirked and looked up.
"Hmm...sounds like someone...or something is enjoying some activity."
He said with a chipper tone of voice...

Nick22 · **Reply #213 on:** September 01, 2013, 09:43:17 PM

"we are in the middle of searching Juri. What is you want to talk to me about?'Ilsa asked her. both ilsa and minna cast light spells so the others could see. minna cast a teveal spell ' red light showed overhead, whoever it was, wasn't friendly..

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #214 on:** September 01, 2013, 09:47:25 PM

Juri looked aside nervously.
"Well...I...I mean..I might not get another chance to say this so...Ilsa...I'm in...I'm...I love you."
She stammered nervously...

LoyfeCycleProtector · **Reply #215 on:** September 01, 2013, 09:51:22 PM

Sue stopped in mid step as she heard this, and whipped her head to the direction that this whisper came from. Several thoughts ran through her head in rapid succession-- as well as several feelings. What she ended on was despair, and the though: 'Oh no... I came in too late in this,' she thought.
She was interrupted in this thought by another crash, and then another yell she couldn't understand.
What was worse, now that she was on the stairs, the wobbling from he crash scared her. She reached out for the nearest person to hold on to, and ended up grabbing Drago.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #216 on:** September 01, 2013, 09:55:42 PM

Drago wrapped an arm around her protectively, holding her lightly.
"Easy there. We don't want anyone getting injured here. That could be problematic, especially considering how little we know about where we are."
He said gently...

Nick22 · **Reply #217 on:** September 01, 2013, 10:06:00 PM

i'm flattered juri that you feel so strongly about me." ilsa began but minna cut in. ' nows not the time to discuss emotional bonds girls' she said. we can settle all of this later'
ilsa looked at minna then sighed ' alright. ' everyone keep clim,bing.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #218 on:** September 01, 2013, 10:07:16 PM

Juri nodded, reaching down and grabbing her saber as they went up the stairs...

LoyfeCycleProtector · **Reply #219 on:** September 01, 2013, 10:09:16 PM

Sue heard an unfamiliar male voice and small "Oh!" was drawn from her lips.
"Oh! Yes, indeed. Story of my life, I'm afraid," she said, dearly hoping she didn't scratch the poor fellow wither he giant claws. "You were with the two girls who joined with us one the stairs, right?" she asked, her eyes flickering up to Ilsa and the whisperer.
"My name's Sue," she said distractedly. "I'm sorry for grabbing you like that, it's just-"
Another bang, another big rumble, and another moment that Sue had to tighten her hold on the male stranger to keep herself from falling.
