"He was a total dweeb," B.G. agreed. "But he was funny at least. Until two other dweebs I know who are no fun at all." He turned away and smirked to himself.
"I liked it," Cynder replied with a smile. She frowned and leaned over to Dixie to whisper into her ear. "I felt a little sorry for the Phantom at the end though."

"Tsukasa!" Yuusuke shouted, causing him to spin around and start back in Yuusuke's direction.
He stopped in front of his friend and glanced at the dust and cobweb covered door next to him. It didn't appear to be the door to a room, rather he was sure it would lead them to another floor.
Tsukasa reached for the door knob and turned it, finding the door locked. He stepped back, pulling out the Decadriver. "Looks like we'll have to force our way in."
"Wait!" Yuusuke interrupted. "This isn't a secret door like the one we blasted into before. Briggins might not like us ripping through it and he might have the key, too. If we ask him, perhaps he'll let us in."
"And what if he doesn't?" Tsukasa asked. "That guy could be involved in the curse."
"You really think so?" Yuusuke asked.
"He's a prime suspect," Tsukasa replied. "He's been here for a long time and he turns a blind eye to all the strange happenings. But then again maybe he's just a normal creepy human."
He frowned thoughtfully. "Anyway, we shouldn't trust anyone too much. Remember Hajime?"
