[IC] The Farmhouse (Dead)

[Jurassic Weeb]

"Oh, shut it, Rainbow Dash," Gideon growled. He'd brought up the horror film thing but that was a bit much for his tastes.

[ScienMalefica]

Orion poked his tongue out childishly and said, "Sorry vampire boy," as he waited for someone to walk in. Hell if he was going to be the first, dying before seeing anyone else do would be boring. Orion then reminded himself not to get his hopes up and that it's probably nothing unfortunately.

[xXSINXx]

"Well that's it." Alexi said being the first to walk in. As she walked in, she looked around and there was nothing. " Like I said, the only thing to fear here is boredom." She called back to the others, after calling back, she-studied her surroundings. The farmhouse was certainly dark and eerie on the inside. Old farming equipment laid against the wall, by the looks of it, this farmhouse has been left untouched for a number of years.

~Boom!!

The door had slammed, catching Alexi off guard. "Okay guys, really funny." She called out assuming they were pranking her.

The wind blew unexpectedly powerfully. The air filled with the sound of the rustling corn and the howling wind, but over it dominated the horrifying sound. A loud screech ringed out through the fields, a disturbing mixture of an animal and human scream.

The door slammed shut from the strong wind. The combination of the wind, the scream, and the door was too much. Anne screamed and bolted to the door. She opened the door and practically threw herself in. She clumsily bumped into Alexi on the way in. "S-Sorry!" She managed to stammer.

She gulped and looked around. It was an old fashioned building. Against one wall rested a few farming tools. There were three doorways on separate walls that lead to other parts of the house. Ahead was a stairway that lead upstairs. Above, dim light came in from a dusty old window high on the wall. On the walls were old, ugly pictures. Many of them seemed to be of a single family, possibly the owners. There was a dresser below the pictures, a dying plant resting in the middle of it.

Anne quickly faced the wall and fumbled around for a light switch. When her hand caught one, she immediately flicked it up without a thought. The light above them flickered briefly, but immediately went out. Anne frantically flicked the switch up and down multiple times before admitting defeat. "N-No lights..." She mumbled.

Kira shuddered at the sound of the scream. She looked all around as she wondered what it was that might have made that strange sound. She stepped closer to Gideon. "You heard that too, right?"

[xXSINXx]

Alexi looked around the barn, feeling the walls for another light switch, she then felt something and picked it up in her hands. "Hey, I found a candle," Alexi said, turning to the the silhouettes of her friends. "Anyone got a match?"

[ScienMalefica]

Walking into the house nonchalantly, leaving the door open as he entered, Orion just heard Alexi ask for a match. Taking 5 matchboxes out of a pocket in his backpack which he normally used if he felt like arson he asked, "What's your favourite brand?" with a smile.

[xXSINXx]

Alexi laughed a bit at Orion's comment. "You brought matches and no cigs." she said shaking her head. "Any will do." After taking a matchbook from Orion, she struck the match and lit the candle, setting it in the middle of the farmhouse so it could be lit evenly. "Here." Alexi called back to Orion, tossing the matchbook to him. "So now what?" she asked.

[Jurassic Weeb]

Gideon heard the scream sound. "What. The fuck. Was that?" he asked. He moved closer to Kira. The scream touched something primal, deep down inside. Nobody else seemed to have heard it. What he'd give for a good shotgun or pistol from one if his video games right now.

[Whitewolf]

Kira shook her head. "I have no idea, but I'd much rather be in that creepy house then out here with whatever made that sound." She darted into the building without a second thought. It was dark, but she was glad to see that the others had managed to light a candle at least. "Shit, this place is hella old. Let's just find out if anyone is here already," she snapped impatiently.

[Valkyr]

"I-I don't think there's anyone here. It's all so... dusty." Anne said. "It looks abandoned."

She cautiously wandered over to one of the doorways and peered inside the room. The weak lighting of the candle behind her didn't reach this far, but she could barely see a kitchen. "Hey, I think this is the kitchen in here!" She announced. She quickly stepped away from the dark kitchen and turned around. She glanced up at the window high on the wall. The dim light was almost gone. There were only faint streaks of color in the nearly black sky. They had barely made it inside before night time.

"Now what?" She worriedly asked the others.

[Whitewolf]

"I'm not sure." Kira suddenly looked very uncomfortable when she realized that it was nearly dark. "Does that mean we're going to have to stay here all night?" Her heart beat quickly in her chest. It was one thing to enter the farmhouse trying to find directions, but it was another altogether to think about having to stay the night.

[Jurassic Weeb]

Gideon began hunting through the drawers. There had to be a knife somewhere. Even if there was nothing out there it would make him feel a whole lot safer.

[Valkyr]

Outside, the wind slowly began to calm down. The howling of the wind and the rustling of the corn soon faded away, and they were in complete silence. All they could hear was their own breathing. Anne shivered. They were going to stay here? All night? She glanced back at the window. She was definitely not going to wander around in the middle of the night. She sighed and walked over towards the dresser, twirling a strand of hair around her finger as she quietly waited for anything to happen.

Gideon wandered over to the doorway that Anne had pointed out. He adjusted his glasses and squinted at the dark room. Yep, it was the kitchen. Without a word, he stepped inside and looked around in the dim lighting. Two of the walls were lined by cabinets and counters. He walked over to the counters and started shifting through the drawers. Many of them were filled with miscellaneous kitchen items. Nothing that interested him.
He stopped when he came to a drawer filled with kitchen utensils. He lifted a knife out of the drawer and studied it. It was a decent size, it would have to do. He stuck it under his belt and headed back to the rest. He wasn't sure how much good it would do, but it certainly made him feel better.

[xXSINXx]

Alexi sighed and sat down against the wall. "You guys find anything interesting?" she asked. She then began looking around in depth, her sight landed upon an old jar on a shelf. 'Hmm." she got up and grabbed the jar. "Tha fuck..?' she said. "Dude, what is this" she said, studying the weird, fleshy object in the jar.

[Valkyr]

Anne walked over to inspect the jar. She leaned in and stared at the jar. She quickly pulled back and made a face. "Eugh! That's disgusting!"
She gingerly leaned back in and studied the disgusting thing. "Is that some kind of spoiled meat?.." Anne wondered. It certainly looked like it. She straightened out and took a few steps back. "Geez, just put that back," She said with a frown.

Hider

Anne shuddered suddenly. She quickly tilted her head upwards and stared at the top of the stairs. It was pitch black. A bead of sweat slipped down the side of her face. She shivered, wrapping her arms around herself. "D-Did anyone else feel that?" She asked timidly.

[xXSINXx]

Alexi then looked at Anne. "For once, you're not crazy." she replied looking up. Alexi, having a pre-existing relationship with Anne, holds her to keep her calm. " Nothings gonna hurt you Anne, I'll make sure of that. Alexi was starting to feel a little freaked out, but her main concern was Anne, after-all she watched over Anne when she was younger.

[Valkyr]

"Weird..." Gideon mumbles. He inches his way over to the foot of the stairs. He watches the darkness quietly, thinking he might see some kind of movement. He assumed it must have been some kind of animal that sneaked in or was living there. Preferably a small harmless one. He gently touched the handle of the kitchen knife he had taken as reassurance. He then began carefully making his way upstairs. The wooden steps creaked loudly under his feet. He stopped at the very top of the staircase.

"W-Wait, Gideon!" Anne exclaimed, "It's dark and creepy up there, hold on!" She turned quickly and walked back into the kitchen. She quickly looked through the cabinets, hoping to find more candles. One of the cabinets was strangely filled with the same type of jar, though they were all empty, much to her luck. She finally found a couple of dusty old candles in one of the cabinets. She took them out and brought them back to the others. She lit one and hurried up the stairs to hand it to Gideon. She then began inching back downstairs. She didn't think to light the other candle, and she had no desire to find whatever gave them that strange sensation.

[Whitewolf]

Kira watched as Gideon started to ascend the stairs. She had no intention of going with him. It seemed so crazy that they were even here. It just plainly didn't seem like a good idea. Was it too late to just leave? She glanced over her shoulder at the front door, considering simply leaving now before anything bad happened. And she couldn't shake the feeling that something bad would happen.

[xXSINXx]

Alexi watched Gideon. "Hey, wait up!" she called to him as she began ascending the stairs. "Don't want you going alone." Alexi had an eerie feeling about the upstairs, thus increasing her curiosity. As she followed Gideon, the stairs began creaking with every step.

CRACK!! THUD!!

One of the steps halfway up the staircase broke under Alexi's foot, sending her face-first into another step. "Fuck!" she exclaimed, covering her nose as blood began to seep through her hand.
