IC: Ch. 10 Back into the Breach...uh I mean House

[DrVendetta]

Richard looks for a place to remove a board with the least amount of destruction to the floor and says "Anyone see a good place to remove a board or two without completely destroying the floors?"

[DetectiveSocks]

Reacting to Richard's question, Jordie goes over to the living room and begins stomping on the floor with her boots. If there is a secret cavity in the bowel of the house, surely it'll produce a hollow sound?

Unless the sound of the basement give way...

[Occigon]

Charles follows Jordie's example, trying to find anywhere that seems hollow.

[BenTheRat]

Everything sounds solid.

The floor looks good, not boards look out of place or loose.

[DrVendetta]

Richard says "The wall I found was right below here somewhere, our other choice is to go down the basement and see if we can find a false wall that comes into below this room here"

[Occigon]

"If we're going into the basement, I sggest we get the others and all go down together," says Charles. "To do otherwise would be tempting fate..."

[DrVendetta]

Richard reply's to Charles "I completely agree, and I think we need to go down with a think blanket again in case of any other possessed knives attacking again"

[DetectiveSocks]

"I-I think I remember seeing a door underneath the stairs last time we were here," Jordie's voice rising steadily out of her shell.

[DrPeterson]

Harrison helps carry one of the lights inside.

"To ... the ...cellar...then..."

[Priest]

Having relieved the struggling Sonny of the lamp, Scott puts it next to Harrison's and looks about him, "So where is this door to the basement then?"

[DrVendetta]

Richard walks over to the basement door and proceeds to open it

[BenTheRat]

It looks very much like it did before.

[DrVendetta]

Richard looks down the stairs and tries to think of an idea for everyone to get down the stairs safely

[BenTheRat]

Richard,make an idea roll

[DrVendetta]

Ben,idea roll [dice]0[/dice]

[BenTheRat]

Richard,it comes to you if you were to tie a rope onto the person going down, that if they slipped on the evasive stairs it would keep them from tumbling. And if you placed a matress at the bottom of the stairs, that would help also.

.

ooc,sorry I haven't been real responsive. I'm in training this week in Florida and so its difficult to find time to get on.

[DrVendetta]

Richard turns to everyone and starts to pull rope out of his satchel "We can use this rope for people going down the stairs, we could also maybe throw a matress from one of the beds down to the bottom to use as a cushion i ncase someone does fall down the stairs"

[DrPeterson]

"Two people should go down and then we can lower the lights on the ropes."

Harrison puts down the lamp and lights up another cigarette, discarding the empty package.

[Silver Priest]

"I'll go get one of the mattresses from upstairs." Michael offers. "I'd like someone else to come and cover me in case our ghost decides to try something."

[DrVendetta]

Richard starts to walk to Michael and says "I got your back, you are probably right none of us should go off by ourselves in this house"
