The door opened, and behind it was a very shallow closet. What they found before them was... Closet:- Some metal crates tied down to the floor with rope. - A rack across the middle, with what appeared to be a hand-sized vacuum cleaner clamped to it. - A message on the wall, written in blood...  - Music -
www.infinitelooper.com/?v=v6ZBoqbupyc&p=nThe smell of blood pervaded their noses with a pungent stench. They could see it trickling around the edges of the splatter, barely enough to tell that it was still wet. |

"HOLY F***...!"
Mei flipped back. She would have fallen right on her back if not for the lack of gravity.

"Whoa that's messed up."
Fox looked back at Mei, considering asking her if she was alright, but dismissing it. She'd only bite his head off.
"A 7 A "
"I don't really know where to begin with that creeptastic message, but how about we look at those crates? And that vacuum... we should hang on to it."

"Y-Yeah... 'sides, it's just a little blood. Not like I'm scared or somethin'."
Mei was keeping her distance from the door as she said this.

Fox was a little perturbed by the blood too, but taking a deep breath he tried to convince himself.
It's red paint. Just red paint
Fox attempted to pick up the hand held vacuum.

The vacuum came off the clamp easily.
Hand-held vacuum:
- About a foot long, and fits in one hand.
- Presumably for sucking up dirt or floating crumbs from snacks.
- Has a power cord.

Nona was a little shocked as well.
"Not to freak anyone out, but... w-what are the chances that blood once belonged to a living person?"

Fox blinked at Nona.
"Yeah... I suppose so.. or it might just be pigs blood or something"
Or red paint.... definitely red paint.
"Hey, look at this vacuum. I've seen some outlets around here, maybe we should plug it in, we may need to use it for the puzzle."

"Good point..."
Mei had a worried look on her face.
"W-Well? Aren't ya gonna close dat door already!?"

Fox could see how upset Mei was, he bit his lip.
"I want to have a look at these crates so how about you and Nona, take the vacuum and find a place to plug it in, I'll follow you in a minute."

"Fine. Just gimme da damn thing."
Mei grabbed the vacuum from his hand, and pushed off toward the opposite side of the room.

Nona went after Mei to the other side.

Watching them go with a slight smile he turned to get a good look at the crates.

- Music -
www.infinitelooper.com/?v=_ocG_KIl898&p=nMetal crates:- They were tied tightly to the floor with rope. - With a bit of force, the ropes were able to come undone. - The crates contained some small items and tools, none of which which seemed to have any importance.

"Hmm"
Fox attempted to pick up the rope.
|

|

Post by Zero on Jun 10, 2013 15:20:43 GMT -5
Rope:
- A thin light-brown rope.
- Tied in a large loop.

"This might be useful"
Fox wrapped the rope around his arm, and exited the small room, closing he door for Mei's benefit.
He then kicked off the wall toward Mei and Nona.

Mei had plugged the vacuum into the electrical outlet on the right side of the room.

With a soft roar the vacuum was powered on, and began sucking up air as it should.

Not knowing what else to do with it, she just floated there with the powered vacuum in hand.
"...Okay. Now what?"

Fox floated over next to her.
"Hey, so it's plugged in, any joy?"
He pulled the rope off his shoulder and waved it lazily in front of him.
"So, the only half way useful thing in there was this rope."

"Well, we don't know that for sure... weren't there some other outlets around here?"
Nona looked around the room.

"There was one in the bathroom.... in the cabinet."
Fox tied the rope back into a large loop then threw it over himself and held on to it at the shoulder so it couldn't fly away.

"I saw one down by da couch, too."

Post by Fox Wilder on Jun 13, 2013 16:13:30 GMT -5
Fox looked sharply at Mei
"There was something stuck under the coach wasn't there? You don't think we could suck it out do you?"

"We could try..."
Mei unplugged the vacuum, and brought it over to the couch. She flipped over in the air and fit the plug into the floor socket.

With the vacuum sucking away, she held it as far under the couch as she could, aiming for whatever item may be stuck back there.

The fluttering of paper could be heard. In a matter of moments, a slight ripping sound came up, followed by the "chug" of something being caught in the vacuum.

"Hey... I think I got somethin'!"
Mei pulled the vacuum out from under the couch, and quickly looked at it.
