IC: Ch 7: Into the House

The old Corbitt house is shrouded in dark rumours and fearful whispers. Its past residents have all had grisly experiences in there, and the few which are able to speak of it will not. Now, pulled in by the promise of money, several investigators try to to find the house's dark secret.

Richard drops to the ground and starts to head toward Warren and Sonny, he covers his mouth with his handkerchief to help keep out as much smoke as possible from his lungs. Richard tries to stay calm as thoughts of the childhood accident that scarred him badly start running through his mind, but he clears his head and starts towards Warren and Sionny hoping that they are down close to the ground to try to make it easier to guide them out. When finding them he starts herding them to the front door.

Michael begins to cough heavily and drops to the floor, attempting to follow Richard to the front door.

The five of you have made it into the hall. But Sonny, Warren and Charles all pass out, overcome with smoke. Richard grabs Sonny and starts dragging him towards the door, keeping low and trying not to breathe. Michael does the same but the smoke and fire is too intense and stumbles to the ground. The front door only 20 feet from where he is.
.
Fire has engulfed the whole hall, but the smoke is stinging your eyes making it impossible to see. The heat burns at your skin.
.
A burning timber falls from the upper floor right behind Richard. You doubt you will be able to save anyone besides Sonny.
.
Just as you are about to reach the door it opens. Jordie is standing there.
.
The fire and smoke are gone. You still find yourself coughing but you quickly realize there is no reason to. Those that had passed out start to come to. It's getting dark outside. A cool breeze rushes into the hall.
.
OOC:   We will be starting a new thread with Jordie here.
