"Yeah I am" she said to him bluntly and you're coming with me; mostly for a quick get away to be honest" she said before answering his next question "Because it's best no one knows of my family" she frowned at him. "Or rather i don't want people to know them" she sighed and looked to him. "Well after we've finished here let's go back there and get it over with" she sighed not looking forward to it but it needed to be done if they were to progress in this case at all.

(sorry brain not working muse wise atm since jsut started at a new college)

(Ah ok.)

"Well...whatever then." Dennis didn't probe any further than he really needed to, trusting that Roseia could handle whatever family issues she had by herself. Funny, seeing as this whole traced all the way back to his partner's ancestors. It would have been equally funny if his predecessors were somehow involved in this as well. Oh well....

Once they were done in the police station, Dennis reluctantly drove them back to the school grounds, the fog still ever present in the area. "Hey, does it look like it got thicker and denser here? Sheesh...you really sure you wanna do this?"

Roseia looked to him "Yeah it has gotten thicker and no I'm not sure since I'm scared of what's going to happen but best to get it over and done with" she said looking to him and got out of the car and took his gun off of him as well "Going to borrow this as well if you don't mind" she smiled a little at him before looking around. "What was her name again? Ah that's right Emily" she looked around "Emily, you here, sorry about before you scared us quite a bit, I want to talk to you so please come out Emily Rose!" she shouted hoping that would work and looked around once the ghost appeared she felt chills down her spine but took a deep breath. "Hi, Emily. I'm not your mother, I'm your descant Roseia… I need to ask you some things regarding the children that have come here recently, can you tell be a little about what's going on, about you and your mother, anything really?" she asked being friendly despite the fact she was pretty much terrified and would most likely stay with Dennis again in the office that night as well. "Well, how about we start with the children, we think your father might be hurting them, have you seen anything going on around here Emily?" she asked and then pulled out something she had in her bag, she'd found it in a box in the office, it had the name Emily on it. "I found this as well, it yours Emily?" she asked holding the bear out to her.

"H-Hey Roseia, be careful!" Dennis stood next to her side but even he had to back away just a little when Emily's spirit appeared before him. He mentally cursed himself on why his partner had taken his gun away from him. They both knew that, out of the two of them, he was the better shot. The ghost of Emily gave both detectives a titled look before smiling lightly.

"Ah, so you're not Mommy then...but....what's a "descendant"? Do you eat those?"

Dennis coughed into his hand, making a mental note to explain it to her later. When Roseia pulled out the box, the pale girl gasped in happiness.

"My box! Oh than you, thank you!" She ran forward to try and hug Roseia, going through her instead. Dennis sighed. "As for my Daddy....I dunno where he went to...Daddy is scary....and busy..."

"Means I'm a relative, I'm from your family although I was born after you, have many children come here recently?" she asked him "Have they met your Daddy, any ideas what he's busy doing" kneels down and looked to her putting her hands out to the girl and letting her put hers on them even if she couldn't touch them. "Well take good care of that box ok? it was rather hard to find" she smiled and tried to figure out exactly what Emily knew if she knew anything at all. "Ah that's right, Dennis can you get my phone, i can show her pictures of those kids that way" she said to him. Once she got it she showed the girl pictures of the recent victims and hoped she'd recognise the one that came to them at least.

"Uh yeah...sure." Dennis kept a close eye on Emily as he went back to the car to retrieve Roseia's phone. Handing it to her, he frowned at the implications of Emily's words. If even she has no clue what her father was up to, then their only leading hunch was no cold water. How annoying.

After a bit of time she got some information from her and thanked the girl "Now look after that ok, put it somewhere safe Emily" she smiled before looking to Dennis "See wasn't all that scary was it?" she grinned and handed him back his gun before heading back in the car thinking about what she'd learnt. "Ok then first let's try and find a map of this school and make out a few things that we know" she smiled.

Dennis sniffed in annoyance as he received his gun back. "Speak for yourself," he muttered. "You really need to be more careful out on the field partner. Just because she's young doesn't mean she's not dangerous. She's still a spirit..." He started up he car to bring in some warm air. "Anyway, I'm not sure where we'll be able to find a map about this place. Maybe the library?"

"Yeah, we can have a look there" she yawned "and aren't I always careful Dennis, I don't think I've ever gotten into too much trouble now have I?" hoping he wouldn't remember the several times she had gotten in plenty of trouble and he'd had to come save her. "and the library archives have blueprints of abandoned places so they'll have one there if not then we can always find a student that went there and ask them to describe the layout for us" she suggested to him "Reminds me we should find out who went there if possible those ghosts still tie me the child also did you notice the women in the school behind Emily? I think that was her mother"

Dennis froze, almost crashing the car into a tree no thanks to the mist. Swerving hard to the right, he gave Roseia a baffled look. "W-Wait, there was a woman watching us? Like a ghost....woman? Great..." Shaking his head at the sheer impossibility of it all, because only they would be crazy enough to try and explore these kinds of things anyway, Dennis drove them all the way down to the library. However, he stopped the car before driving into one of the parking spots. "Um...that's not normal." Indeed, it wasn't. For the entire library was blanketed with pitch black fog.

Rosiea held on tightly when the car swerved "What are you doing!" she yelled at him "and yes a ghost woman" she said to him. Once at the library she nodded "Yeah, far from normal" she muttered and looked outside not really wiling to go an investigate what was causing the fog "I really don't want to go but I get the feeling we need to go if anything… so Dennis, you ready?" she asked him waiting to see if her partner would join her in this although she really did just want a normal case now but she never abandoned a case she took on so thought she might as well get this over and done with.

"Ready? Doesn't matter cause you'll drag me inside anyway," he muttered to himself. Getting out the car, he had his white revolver ready at his side and led the way to the library's entrance. Upon entering the large establishment of learning, Dennis knew something was immediately wrong. The mist had somehow gotten inside the building, and Denis could have sworn he saw the shadows on the wall moving.

The lights had all been shut off, and not a single being was around. A large bang echoed across the wooden walls, and Dennis jumped back, standing closer to Rosiea.

"Hmm you're correct on that" she smiled a little and headed inside with him almost crashing into him when a large bang echoed across the wooden walls. "ok maybe it was a bad idea to come here" she said hesitantly and then moved to stand beside him and searched a little finding a torch and turned it on "Ok then let's get going, we're here to find blueprints, plus this place should be full of people around this time, where are they all?" she looked around and went to a chair and touched it "Cold, ice cold… all of them… ok then maybe it should eb where are we instead?" she questions and gave a nervous gulp and looked to him "No more ghost cases after this" she said to him. "agreed?"

"Yeah...no more ghost cases after this...seriously, what happened here?" Dennis, ever cautious as always, revealed his revolver and held it to his side. At this point, it was almost little more than a "safety-blanket" of sorts. "This place was fine an hour ago...what the hell happened? You don't think this is some kind of illusion we fell in, huh?" At that moment, a low growling sound echoed around the library walls.

Roseia jumped hearing the growl and then she really did crash into Dennis "Sorry, it made me jump" she said to him glad he had very good control over his gun and sighed softly. "I don't know, maybe an illusion, listen carefully" She said and sure enough faith voices could be heard, not ghostly ones those of people but they were nowhere to be seen. "But i don't think people can see us either so I think it's like a pocket dimension as I'm going to call it" she said "But I don't think we entered it naturally either, a ghost most likely interfered somehow."

"Pocket dimension huh? What, like we're in the spirit world or something?"

That was precisely the case, as several pale figures began to slowly emerge from the ground up. Dressed in black robes, they had screams permanently written over their faces as each of their jaws were elongated and disproportion ed beyond human standards. The sounds of people talking became more evident than ever, proving that the library was still here...but they were in a different plane of existence.

"Crap...time to go now!"

Dennis took Roseia's hand and began running down the library hallways, looking for an exit to this living nightmare.

Roseia held his hand tightly and followed behind him, she was just as scared as her companion and kept running like mad and spotted something different "There, that white door, it's out of place, must be through there and I'm sorry if this ends us being in even more trouble" she said to him softly and took the lead and opened the door pulling him through with her and gasped before sitting down… "We seem to be out of there" she said hearing the hushed whispers of the normal library and didn't feel like moving in the slightest.

"Yeah...no kidding." Dennis sighed in relief and slouched to the floor, gripping his gun even tighter than before. When it became apparent that the ghostly spectres were no longer following them, or at the very least it sounded like it, he got up and and clenched onto Roseia's hand tighter. "This whole place is misty...if this is the ghost's realm, then this is the best place to find some answers. It's probably linked to you being related to the girl from earlier," he said, looking at his partner.

"This is why I don't like talking about my family, something always goes wrong" she said clearly a little annoyed before held his hand still as she got up and nodded "Yeah, let's just get going" she said to him wanting to get to their research "As long as there is nothing trying to kill us or chase us we can work" she nodded and took him with her as she headed towards the library archives and looked up the name of the school and pulled out a huge box of files and found a table to set them down on.

Dennis nodded as he followed her. He wanted to ask a little more about their past, though he knew how Roseia hated anything to do with her family. Still, the case was what mattered the most in this situation and Rosiea knew that better then him. Looking through a random box of old files, Dennis cleared his throat before casually asking his question.

"Hey Roseia? Look, I know you don't like telling me about your family...but I think it's essential we learn anything we can for the sake of the case and that girl. Alright? So....can I first ask you why you hate them? Or is it some weird family branch thing?"
