Shadows - [Main Thread]

“Hello miss. I think I’ve met you before. Have I?”

He worryingly talked normal, despite the circumstances. He noticed the change in eye color.

“Are you doing alright? Ah… you’ve got those weird eyes…”

They sigh and holster their gun. Disturbing and annoying, two shots mean people will come running. They sling the beast girl over their shoulder before exiting the ???, softly singing a song from their childhood, slightly perturbed by what they had just done.

O’er the hills and o’er the main.
Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain.
King George commands and we obey.
Over the hills and far away

Kumo covers her eyes from the white light as she looks over this new area and backs up feeling behind her. As her hand reaches back to where a door would be and feels a wall instead a door.

Kumo lowered her head in a sigh “Whats even going in here it doesn’t even make any sense.”

Kumo glances up the stairs she heard people at.

“Maybe someone is there that can explain some of this.”

As she trys to slowly and quietly walk up the stairs.

“Uhh hold up you know this guy?” Omi says, getting ready to flee at the first sign of danger

“She was very nice to me at the train station. Helped me feel better.*

Akio nodded, smiling warmly, seemingly carefree.

The woman looks up, eyes meeting Akio’s and Omi’s. Her eyes widen and dilate, and she immediately turns away, holding her growling stomach.

“Ah… It’s you… please… st-”
Upon closer inspection, she had blood dripping from her mouth, and her short brown hair slowly turning white…

Her knees buckle and her elbows slam onto the ground. She coughs out blood, making a not so artistic blood splatter on the ground. “Aah…”

He definitely freaked out a bit, trying to rush down and aid her.

“H-Hey! What happened?! What’s happening?”

He waited nervously for an answer, confused at whatever was wrong with the lady.

“Let’s take this with us,” Taisto says as he slips the metal ball into his pocket. "We should check the other rooms. Whoever - or whatever - was here, is gone, but we should get a move on in case they come back.

He motions for Arthur-Oliver to follow as he returns to the hall with the numerous doors.

Omi leaps backwards

“What the hell I thought you knew this lady” as Omi looks over to Akio… as he looks to see that Akio is just as confused.

Without hesitation, Omi instinctively slams the door shut.

“Well… let’s pretend we never saw that at all…”

“W-“

“What the heck! Do you usually run away from people dying in front of you like that?!”

“Hey I mean she splat out literal blood at us. You can’t blame me…

Who was she anyways”

Omi says in retaliation

“I said who she was, but you apparently weren’t listening.”

He rolled his eyes.

“Where even are we now?”

Omi looks around.

“Yes where are we…”

@Magnus

As the two of them exit the room, they hear 2 more gunshots from further down the hallway.

They then see someone (@Ami) carrying someone with tattered jeans on their shoulder shortly afterwards.

They were back where they were, in the hallway. And they hear 2 gunshots coming from door number 1…

As Yulan looks out of the room, Daigo finds out that there were no visible traces of said boy that he was tracking. No blood, no nothing.

And as Yulan looks out, he comes face to face with a petite purple haired lady. (@TrustworthyLiberal)

“WHOA!” Yulan freaks out for a moment before regaining his bearings…


So Kumo decides to walk up the staircase. Sneaky sneaky, try to be sneaky… and open sesame! It’s sad, but she’s greeted with a tall man’s chest, and upon looking up, being able to see the man’s striking brown hair and frightened face…

And the man hollers in shock, jumping backwards and pointing a finger gun at Kumo.

Daigo tenses as he sees the woman step out of the dark stairway. His hand instinctively motions near where he keeps his revolver but he doesn’t draw it. He holds his opposite hand out in front of Yulan to prevent him from doing anything hasty, as his old friend was known to do. “Who are you? What are you doing here?” he says loudly, but calmly.

“Okay. Absolutely not. I refuse to walk into a room where I hear gunshots from. Have you ever learned about what a gun is like…ever?

They are weapons, that’s what they are. If you can agree with me on this, you can agree-“

Hes going off, for some reason.

Omi proceeds to open door numba 1

“My momma used to tell me, whenever there’s gun, there is fun!”

He says expecting to find a shotgun or AK behind the door

Taisto gives a start, blood pounding in his ears as another round of gunshots sounds.
Before he can react properly, someone on the opposite end of the hallway appears, a body slung over their shoulder.

Unsure of how to handle the situation, but fairly sure they’ve been noticed, Taisto braces himself in case they need to run. “Have we been spotted?” he whispers to Arthur-Oliver, his eyes tracking the movements of the unknown figure.

The figure slowly looks around and spots the two people. “Shit.” They lay the person down and begin staring at the two unknowns, slowly reaching into their coat for something.
