"No, but I think she might be related to someone I do know... Good, he made it," said Arlo, watching Shinichi dart into the room and shut the door behind her. She turned quickly when she heard someone scream and fired another blast of energy at the mannequin that had grabbed Dani. "Not yet, but we're trying to find it now."

"Good, because I can't phase out!" Dani shouted from up near the ceiling. She pounded her fist against the roof, but to no avail. Giving up, she flipped over and dropped down to help the blond haired girl. "Can't you fly?" The pre-teen asked, adding her own beam of energy to the older girl's.

(I'm sorry I thought I replied)
Ciel was a little relieved when he saw that the detective made it. He came out from his hiding as another mannequin approached, beginning to fight it using the sword. He quickly glanced at Kid. "Whatever you say. I'd prefer to not have to fight anything, but what else should we expect?"

"Most of the rooms can't be phased out of," Arlo told Dani. She looked over at the office door again. She hoped it wouldn't take very long for Shinichi to find the switch or whatever it was. "Nope. If I could fly I probably wouldn't still be on the ground," she replied.

Kid smiled a little as he watched Ciel start to fight. "I think that's the case for all of us here."
In the room, Shinichi searched for some sort of way to turn off...whatever was happening. It looked like a normal office, so he searched first for any sort of power box. When that failed he started opening the drawers on the small desk in the corner. Finally, on the one at the bottom, he found what looked to be the main power source. He didn't feel like he had time to figure everything out on them, but he pushed that feeling away. Now was not the time to set of more traps. He eyed all the switches and button. After a couple of minutes, he reached out and move two switches and pushed a button. He waited, expectant.
Kid smiled as the mannequins stopped moving and the flashing light turned off. "See. He figured it out."

( broken that rank tho ) Dani frowned, confused. She dodged a hand that reached up to grab her foot, grabbed the arm attached to it, and slung the fake security guard into a nearby shelf. "But, aren't you a ghost?" She asked the older girl, zipping back to where she was and hovering over her left shoulder. "You... you've got ecto blasts like I do."

Touka relaxed, taking a deep breath as the alarms shut off and the mannequins stopped attacking. Her eyes returned to their normal blue, and as soon as they did, her kagune vanished. She stumbled a little - apparently the stunts she'd been pulling had drained more energy than she thought - but managed to stay upright. "Whatever you did in there, it worked." she called to Shinichi, looking around for a way out. Going off what others had told her about the House, some kind of exit should appear at any moment.

(Any suggestions? Door past the checkout stands?)
Shinichi opened the door, stepping out once he had made sure that the mannequins really had stopped moving. He dipped his head a little, in thanks for Touka's help. But he was a little unnerved. Would he ever get used to this fantasy stuff? Talking wolves were bad enough. Was there still such a thing as science anymore? "Thanks," he said to her, noticing she looked drained. "Thanks for watching my back."

Dani dropped close to the floor and kicked a now-still mannequin once more just for good measure. "That was.... really weird." The heat of battle over, her bravado cracked a little, but she took a deep breath and seemed to fight back any fear she might be feeling. "So," She spun around to face the other people in the room, still hovering an inch or two off the floor. "Now what?"
(i vote the floor where the mannequins are laying caves in xD )

"No, I'm human and completely alive," Arlo replied. "It's a bit of a long story, but I can manipulate life energy." She was just about to shoot another mannequin when it fell to the floor. "Looks like he found the switch! Now we just need the door..." She turned and looked back at the wall past the cash registers, but unfortunately couldn't see anything resembling a door.
(( xD sounds good to me aves))

(Works for me as well. ) Kid leaned against one of the counters in relief. "Good. Glad that's over. Remind me to figure out a way to find a way to fight things in this place someday soon." He really meant that. His brain only could get him so far before he had to do something active. Shinichi at least could defend himself. Kid needed mechanical tricks, which couldn't work here.

"Oh." Dani was actually caught speechless for once. Then her frustration surfaced. "Sure that totally makes sense, just like everything else in this stupid place!" Angrily she dropped to the ground with a thump, crossing her arms. "I still don't even know where I am and who all you fruitloops are." People she met kept repeating 'the paradox house, the paradox house' but that really didn't explain much. Like where physically were they? "Power over life energy, that's cool, totally norm- "
Her biting comment was cut short as the floor groaned and shifted a bit. With a squeal, Dani jumped and hovered safely mid-air again. "Now what?!"

Kid and Shinichi, of course, dropped like stones. Unlike Dani, they couldn't fly any more than Arlo could. Shinichi looked scared out of his mind. Kid also looked scared, but also strangely used to everything.
Kid landed with a thump on the living room couch. "Yes!" he said. "Another room completed!" Shinichi looked at Kid like he was mad. Kid wondered if he was right. That didn't stop him from grinning though.

Arlo opened her mouth to say something, only to let out a startled yelp as the floor caved in and she landed on the couch by Kaito and Shinichi. "Oh good, we're back." Or at least most of them were. She looked up at the opening in the ceiling above them. Danielle was still in the grocery store. "Hey, if you want an explanation you should come down here," she said.

Dani dove to try and catch someone, anyone before they fell to their death but pulled up short, mouth agape. The room she had been in before was directly under this store, like some sort of hidden bunker. And this didn't surprise the others at all. Slowly, she descended through the gaping hole to land on the floor in an otherwise unimpressive den area. "What is going on?" She repeated
( may poof, but will be back in a few hours x-x )

»ƑαƖcση"We call this place the Paradox House," Arlo started once Dani had landed in the room. "We don't know why or how, but it teleports people here for awhile from different worlds and times, then sends them back. When you go back to your world no time will have passed there," she paused, taking her gloves out of her pocket and putting them back on. "We're not quite sure how it works, but we call it 'blinking'. There's no way to leave the House until you blink out, and the rooms- except this one- are usually dangerous, so we try to only go in them when there's a few of us here. Anything can happen in them. You might find a room that's full of robots that attack you, or a room that looks like a forest or a beach- there was even one that was filled with socks once. We can't control when we come here, or for how long, but like I said, you will go back to your world eventually."

Touka scrambled, frantic, as the floor began to cave in. She clawed at the slick linoleum, trying in vain to save herself from whatever was below. What happened? We won, didn't we?! She fell into the blackness, still frantically trying to get a hold of something to jump to safety. When she finally did reach the living room, she landed safely on one of the couches, bouncing off the edge and rolling onto the floor. Sitting up, she looked around the room, spotting the others and recognizing the living room. "Oh - really?" she snapped, getting up and sitting on the arm of the couch as she tried to recover her composure. She smoothed her disheveled clothes and ran a hand through her hair, shaking her head irritably. "Couldn't have just been a door..."

"You should have been in the star-gazing room," said Shinichi to Touka. "That would have really freaked you out. The room had to explode before we could get out." Kid nodded, frowning. "The fear/bad memory wanted you to face your fears, according to that Sherlock character. Nearly drowned all the blinkers in the room." Considering, this was a usual room. Kid was confident that most rooms could be overcome, though the House would always give you a challenge.
Kid let Arlo explain things to Dani and bit his tongue as he tried not to add anything. He's study of the House had unearthed a lot of things and not all of it was necessary for a knew blinker to know.

"A room can be anything?" She asked, an excited glimmer in her eye. "And no effect on the living world? That's so cool! Did I get chosen or something?" She turned to look over her shoulder at the nearby doorway. "That hall leads to all the rooms doesn't it?" ( --cato phoenix )

(Ok cool)
Matteo blinked into the House, sitting on one of the chairs and making a motion as if to click a tv remote, but nothing was there. "Aw no I wanted to watch that!" He complained, sinking into the chair as he looked around some.
