Utena's former door is pried open by Marian, who stands front of it, unafraid. A breeze comes from the darkness of the room, making the yellow tape stuck to the door and its frame float in an etherial, somewhat disturbing manner. She tilts her head as the door seems to groan in greeting, calling her. She cringes at the smell of the other side--It's

Fuu was observing the crowd of mourners from a distance, and so managed to hear a door slamming shut. She goes to the area with the Random Doors to investigate.

At first nothing seems out of the norm, but then she notices the discarded yellow tape on the floor. And near the yellow tape, she notices a Volkswagen keychain, lying right in front of that door Utena used to enter the Nexus back when she was living in Silent Hill.

"This can't be good."

Taking the keychain, she goes back to look for Utena.

Sketch blinks. "Huh? Hmm..."

[revolution_pink]

The door groans meanacingly. A dim, red light can be seen from under it, but it vanishes in an instant. Static is heard from the other side, along with a garbled voice:

"told...not...ome..."

((No loady for me T_T))

*Hughes finds himself in the hallway outside room 204 from the directions given to him by Utena. Cranking up the radio and switching on the flashlight, he cautiously makes his way down the hall*

[revolution_pink]

((It should now. ^_^))

A voice rings through the hall, and upon first glance it seems as if Marian has found her own way up. However, the image flickers as it speaks--It is simply another projection of herself, used as a means of communication.

"Who are you?"

The girl's projection moves in and out of clarity. She raises an eyebrow questioningly, however, decides not to wait for an answer. She's tired.

"Do you know the way to the resturaunt?"

[papa_to_asobou]

((ZOHOLY CRAP THAT'S HUGE O_o))

*checks his map* I think so. Why do you ask?

[revolution_pink]

((The map, or the hotel? XD The hotel isn't as big as it looks, considering all the locked doors. It should be easy to get through. As for the map...I couldn't find the real one, which would have been two small images. *gonk*))

"That's where I am...I'm tired."

The image fades near completely, and returns, almost barely an outline against the hall. The girl motions for Hughes to follow her, turning down the hallway.

"Don't pay attention to those, I've already..."

She fades.

Skyler Sands here...

[skjam]

Having seen way too many horror movies for his own good, Skyler knows better than to go into the accursed area alone. He waits for Utena to show up.

Re: Skyler Sands here...

[revolution_pink]

Utena pulls up in the GTI, regretting that she can't bring it through the door. She steps out somewhat apprehensively. She had already peeked in the door, and figured out where, exactly, it lead to. She holds two bits of paper in her hands--The map. She smiles worridly and waves.

"I guess we're going in together, huh?"

She waves the map about.

"It's Lakeview, alternate, not otherworld...so it shouldn't be that bad."

She reaches through the window and retrieves her sword--Better safe than sorry, especially with the monsters she's heard about.

Re: Skyler Sands here...

[skjam]

Skyler reaches behind his back and produces a crossbow, along with a full quiver. A lavender quiver, but nonetheless.

He ducks his head in prayer, then snaps to attention. "Ready when you are."

Re: Skyler Sands here...

[revolution_pink]

"A...crossbow! I didn't know...Well...that--Let's go!"

She blinks a few times in half-shock, but grins and shakes it off. She steps up to the door and opens it--It's a normal hotel room. Dimly lit, but otherwise free of anything terrifying. A briefcase is on the bed, but it's not important.

"Hughes came through not too long ago...we should be fine. At least I think so."

She shines her flashlight through the room to make sure there isn't anything hiding inside, then cautiously steps in.

[shiningwind]

*Fuu enters the hallway, a bit late due to other duties, but ready nonetheless, flashlight and radio at the ready*

*She notices that some of the dust has been recently moved, probably the work of the others. After checking for no monsters, she makes her way down the hall*

[revolution_pink]

As she nears the hallway at the end of the door, her radio cackles. There isn't anything in the hall, but by the looks of it, behind the door there might be some. Marian's voice becomes clear again.

"You'll need the key to get back. Go to the cloak room...it should be to your right...after--"

Nothing but the static sounds for a moment.

"--It's already open for you."

[shiningwind]

*Fuu was already told of Marian's power over the place, so her shock is mild*

Understood, Miss Marian.

*She heads over to the cloak room, always checking for anything unusual with her implements.*

((Does the door swing forwards or backwards?))

[revolution_pink]

((Forward. *nod*))

Nearing the cloak room produces the sound of static--It fades particularly quickly, along with a rustling sound near the stairs. Marian does not speak again--Instead, she is breathing quietly.
