50 Floors of Horror

[Rayleonarde]

Ray moved about the entry room, trying to avoid debris as he looked for a way out.

[Alegra737]

Alegra whirled on the door as it slammed shut. The music made the mansion feel erie. She started walking again.

[Kyle MaJoi]

At the end of the hallway, she entered a large, victorian styled room full of chard furnature and paint. The the place looked as if it had suffered from a fire ages ago, and was now long abandoned. On a table in that very room, sat a note...

[coolcoyote]

Xia stumbled out of the hallway next. She flopped, falling onto her belly. "What in the blazes was THAT?" The lizard pulled herself up to a sitting position, coughing out dust. "Time for a head count, are you lot ok?" Xia was heartless but not devoid of some level of decency. "Are we missing anyone?"

[Dr. Alka Wolf]

*Gaia sheepishly walked over to the table and picked up the bite, carefully reading it*

[Kyle MaJoi]

The note was a police report from the early victorian era that read:

August 21, 1853, the infinious Chimney Sweeper Killer has claimed yet another family. Reports show that, like all of his past killings, came from the chimney of this home, and did away with the family by slitting their throats while they were asleep. The family he most recently murdered had three children and a single father. That sick bastard.

Then, he stole all the valuables the family had and escaped from where he came from; though the chimney. This is the tenth family this monster has murdered. And I'll be damned to let him kill off another.

[Dr. Alka Wolf]

*Gaia gulped and held onto her throat, basically at tears from fright. She frantically looked for a chimney*

[Alegra737]

Alegra lookee at the note. "Just a hoax." She said, her voice frightened. She shivered and wraped her wings around herself.

[Kyle MaJoi]

With the door they came from closed, there had to be a way out of this seemingly abandoned building they were in.

[coolcoyote]

The lizard by now finished coughing dust and debris out of her lungs. "What kind of dusty death trap is this? Forget ste- er...CLEANING this place. I'm sueing for damages!"

Picking herself up and dusting herself off the pudgy lizard turns to her fellow cleaners. They seem...afraid. Given the circomstances she can relate.  But then she sees the note and raises an eyebrow. "Well don't just keep us alll in suspence, what does the note say, er....um..." it comes to Xia's attention that she doesn't even remember their names. A dangerous problem should she have to call out for them in this dangerous building. "I'm afraid the build falling in on us knocked my memory loose a bit. What are your names?"

[Dr. Alka Wolf]

*Gaia looked at Xia* Gaia: M-M-My n-name is G-Gaia.... *She handed the note over to Xia, not wanting to have to repeat what she read*

[Alegra737]

"Mines Alegra. Umm..." She trailed off. "This place is sorta creepy."

[coolcoyote]

"Gia and Algera." The lizard responded as she takes the note and reads over it quickly enough. Mostly she skims. Suddenly the warning to bring weapons is starting to seem less and less like a joke. "Ah see, well ain't this all lovely. We should probbibly stick together then. Safety in numbers and all that jaz." The lizard casts her gaze about the room and realizes something.

"We are missing someone...the...the raccoon." She let loose a loud hiss, "Alright. Spread out. Find him and return here. If you run into trouble call out for help." So that she can run the other way, thinks Xia.

[Alegra737]

"Didn't you just say that we should stick together?" Alegra asked skeptically, her tail flicking anxiously.

[Dr. Alka Wolf]

*Gaia stuck close to Alegra. Xia was waaaay too relaxed for this* Gaia: Y-Yeah... I think it would be b-better to stick together...
