IC: Ch 7: Into the House

.
After fiddling around and everyone saying yea we should go in, but still hesitating after what you encountered last night you gather up enough nerve to climb up on the porch to the front door. It is still closed and locked from the last encounter. You unlock the door, but still hesitate, not sure why. A cold chill runs up your spine and the hair on your neck stands up on end. You all immediately feel like someone or something is watching you.
.
Someone finally reaches down and opens the door. It creaks so loud you think it was straight out of a movie. You see the hall stretching out before you. It appears to run the length of the house, but isn't centered. The rooms to the right of the hall will be bigger. You see 3 small doors to the left spaced out along the left side of the hall. Also on the left side at the very end is the landing for stairs going up. On the right is a set of large double doors just 8 feet or so down the hall. Then 2 smaller doors on the right. One at the very end of the hall.
.
The floor has dirt all over it, and it hasn't be cleaned in a very long time. You can see on the inside of the front door, now that it is open, has 4 new deadbolts on it. They all look fairly new.

As the door opens I take the .45 from my coat pocket.
I glance at the bolts, noting their 'newness' "Were these things here on your previous visit?"

Warren thinking: I ain't taking any chances after last night and knowing that Phil is somewhere at large. |

Richard pulls out one of his pistols and moves down the hall way to make room for the others to enter.

Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
The floorboards creak slightly as you step in, and dust swirls from your steps, but otherwise, it is quiet and normal looking house.

Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
Taking Warren and Richard's lead, Michael also draws his gun. Much of his bravado has faded away, and the PI attempts to steel himself for whatever will come.

"I say we do each door in order going down the hall" says Richard as he heads for the first door
"Beneath this mask there is more than flesh, Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr Creedy, and ideas are Bulletproof"
Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
The first doors are the double doors on the right, they are slightly ajar. Just past them are the small door to the left. It is shut.

Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
Richard walks to the slightly ajar door and pushes it wide open and looks into the room.

Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
"How much exploration did you actually manage to do last time you were here?" asks Charles. He is clearly tightly wound and alert.
Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
Inside the door it opens into a large living room. A plush couch and two matching arm chairs, a fireplace with a picture hanging above it. A radio on a wall table as well as a family bible sitting on a coffee table. There are a large number of crucifixes hanging on the walls along with several shelves with small items on them, most of them of a religious nature. Dust covers everything in the room.
.
There are 2 windows in this room, 1 to the front of the house and 1 to the side of the house. On the left wall is an opening into the next room, no door.

"I agree we dont leave any room unsearched behind us. Stay alert guys, we don't want a rerun of last night"
I check the safety on my .45, I don't want it going off by accident. I cross the room to the opening...

Warren crosses the room, and looks into the dining room that is connected to the living room.
.
He sees the dining room, complete with a long mahogany table, a built-in sideboard, and seven chairs. Three places are set, and unused. Scraps of rice soup rots in a tureen.

Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
Richard walks into the living room and start to take a closer look at the room and the objects in it.

Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
As you look around the room things look pretty normal.
. . .
All of you hear what sounds like footsteps from above you.

Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
Seeing the others have the matter well in hand, Michael calls out from the living room.
"I'm going to check out one of the doors across the hallway. Yell if you find anything."
He heads back out and examines the first door on the left, attempting to open it.

You find the first door on the left locked.
