Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
Michael grumbles. Who the hell kept doors locked in an abandoned house? In any event, he was not willing to try and break the door down just yet. There might be a key somewhere around here.
He moves on and tries the second and third doors, attempting to see if both are locked as well.

Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
Richard says "ok we move on to the next room" as Richard see's Michael moving from door to door impatiently he just shakes his head at Michael's ignorance in these matters. After checking and finding the next door locked he looks over his shoulder and says "Who has the keys? Lets see if they will open this door, if not Jordie you might have to take a look at it for us"

Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
The 2nd door on the left opens. Its about 10 feet deep and 30 feet wide. The door is centered. It appears to just be a storage room with old broken furniture. It looks like they were breaking into pieces to burn.
.
Richard, you remember Jordie is out in the car reading.

Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
You can check the keys, there are 2 different keys, but both look like outside door locks. Neither looks like it would fit the interior door.

You fail to open the lock.

Again you hear footsteps upstairs.

Shaking my head in wonder at the painting, I reach into my jacket pocket and take out my flask. Unscrewing the top I take a quick hit.
"Uhh, Richard did you...?" I leave the sentence unfinished as I can tell by his quick glance at the picture that he hadn't seen anything.
I watch as first Michael, then Richard fail to open the door. "Jordies outside lost in her book. So if there aint no key and it won't open with a little persuasion then maybe we need to bust it? After all it aint like the owner will bitch about a little damage"
I gesture at the general squalor of the rooms so far, then suddenly noticing Richard's alertness, "What is it?"...
Warren thinking: Damn this whole thing is starting to spook me out. Now I'm seeing things that aint there. |

Richard turns and looks at Warren and whatever he may be looking at "What is what?"

Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
The second room looking to hold nothing of interest, Michael prepares to head for the third one.
Warren's words stop him. "Well, wait a minute here. We were hired to get rid of whatever's haunting this house. I don't think that excuses us breaking down any doors. I'd prefer to do that as a last resort. I don't want any damages we cause taken out of my pay."
Suddenly hearing the footsteps above him, Michael whips his gun up, looking alert and more than a little on edge.
"What the hell was that? I thought I heard something before, but I thought it was just the house settling. But no, that time it was footsteps, I'm sure of it! Someone's upstairs."
The former cop heads for the stairs, not bothering to be sneaky. Whomever was up there probably knew they were here anyway.

Richard shouts "Someone go out back and out front to cover the outside to ensure no one escapes this time" and then he heads up after Warren.

Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
As Michael runs for the stairs at the end of the hall he passes the 3rd door on the left, it is closed. Then the 2nd door on the right, it is open and he sees a kitchen behind that door.
.
He then reaches the stairs, the last door on the right is opposite the stairs, it is closed and has several locks on it.
.
Michael bounds up the stairs 2 steps at a time. It opens onto a landing. You are facing another hall that stretches the length of the house. On the right are windows. There is a door immediately to your left, it is open and appears to be a bathroom inside. Then there are 3 more doors along the hall on the left. All 3 doors are closed, the noise seems to have come from 1st closed door on the left.
.
Richard is only 5-10 feet behind Michael.

Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
Adrenaline still racing, Michael attempts to slam open the first door and catch whomever may be inside.
Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
As you slam the door open, this room looks very unused. A small dresser sits in one corner, and a bare bed frame with springs sits in another.
.
There is no one in the room, but you hear the window pane rattle, like it was just closed, and when you look a shadow moves outside the window.

Re: IC: Ch 7: Into the House
Sonny has followed everyone through the house, he has been unusually quiet, his smiling demeanour obviously missing - his previous visit here and the events at the chapel have clearly unnerved him - more so than he thought.
As Michael and Richard head up the stairs Sonny is overcome by a sense of deja-vu, as he hears Warren's shouted warning he finally shakes himself out of his stupor.
"Guys - stay outta there! Get away from the window! Shit guys this is what happened to me and Harry, the footsteps, the window the flying bed, everything!
Fuck guys, get outta there now!
