While Olivia and Josh talked, Taylor wandered off with Sadie on her own train of thought, watching the treeline as she took her shoes and socks off. She rolled up her pant legs and walked through the shallow waters of the lake up to her mid-calves. If it wasn't for the awful smell, this would actually be kind of nice. While Taylor was busy dazing off in her imaginings, Sadie came charging up at her, then running right around her feet. All the while, splashing the crap out of Taylor who squeals from the shock of the cold water on her face.

"SADIE! Ugh." She stuffs her socks into her shoes and throws them up onto the shore, running after her dog. "Come here, Sadie. Sadie!" laughing to herself, she kicks water at the terrier and stops, halfway bent down, eyeing her dog who was now turned around facing her. Sadie lowered her head as if to mimic Taylor's own stance, making them look like they were in an old western stand-off. Taylor pretend-lunges at Sadie and the dog huffs as she advances a little, tail wagging slightly from side to side.

"Come on, Sadie-dog. Make your move." Sadie tilts her head, tongue lolling out of her mouth, but she doesn't make a move. Taylor shakes her head and smirks, talking low but knowing Sadie can hear her just fine. "I'm gonna count to three. Kay?" Sadie's eyes grow wider, tail beginning to wag a little faster. Taylor giggles, counting down slowly. "Onnnnne. Twooooooo.." Taylor fake-lunges again and yells, "Five!" Sadie holds her ground, staring intently at her person. Taylor nods. "Nice, nice......... THREE!" Sadie charges at Taylor but as soon as she gets a couple feet away she pivots and runs the opposite direction, running right for Clifford and Olivia kicking up dirt and sand as she goes. Sadie runs right between them, nearly knocking into Clifford as she tears around Olivia and runs back towards the water but still avoiding going near Taylor.

Declan could hear Finley's footsteps behind him and he mentally groaned, thinking to himself, 'Why can't girls just listen?!' He shook his head and sighed heavily, pulling out his phone to use as a light. It didn't help much, but it was better than trying to wander about the mine in the dark. Declan grit his teeth firmly, every muscle in his body felt like it was on fire. If he wasn't paying attention to his grip, he could have smashed his phone right in his hand with how hard bad it was hurting him right now. He stopped long enough to reach back in the dark to find Finley's hand, grasping it as he continued to walk further into the mine with his phone stretched out in front of them.

"Can't take you anywhere," he said in a light tone. Part of him really wished she'd stayed outside, but the other half was glad she was so damn stubborn and didn't listen to him. What if something happened to him? He wasn't too sure what would happen. He hadn't been exposed to silver like this and wasn't aware just what kind of effects might take place.

Clifford Norman~Red



Clifford accepted the pet and mentally hoped she would stop doing that to him. Why was she so insistent on petting him, he was not that soft and he was not that much of a dog. That and he was not comfortable with that smell that had graced his nose earlier had him beyond on edge. He wanted to leave and he wanted to leave badly.

With a heavy huff clifford looked toward civilization and the opportunity of leaving. That being said he did not see the dog when it barreled through and got hit in the shoulder as it ran past. He grumbled and huffed again before turning and padding toward his things. With heavy grumble he picked them up in his mouth and promptly trotted off toward home. He was not about this. Sulfur smells never lead to good things and he was not about to stay here surrounded by death possibilities. He was too old to do so.

@Morose "Of course, anytime just swing by if you need anything else the door is always open." Miss Halsey said as she went back to doing her usual duties in the shop as she went and started to clean up things around the store. When Jenna left the store and ran to her house she would get there no problem. And the drive over to the mine didn't have any problems either, there weren't really any parking places so Jenna would have to park her car near the town hall again. She would see the officers were still pulling out all of the computers out of the building and over into the police station which was across the street.

@FantasyChic@Infamous Auror As Finley and Declan enter the mine and they got deeper, Declan would start to feel even weaker then he was outside of the mine. He would start to feel very dizzy which would cause him to lose his footing, Declan would fall right on his ass then there would be a sizzling sound Declan would notice burn marks on his hands where some silver was poking out of the ground causing him a lot of pain. Finley would also hear the same noise and if she looked down would notice the burns as well.

@BlueSky44 James nodded as he started to turn around and followed Lydia out of the cellar of the building, but when Lydia managed to get out of the cellar the doors suddenly closed behind her and the doors locked. "Hey let me out!" James yelled out from inside of the cellar as he started to bang on the doors. James turned around as he started to hear some noises from the cellar as his knocks started to become more panicked. "I think theres something else down here!" He yelled hoping that Lydia would somehow open the door, the kitten in Lydia's arms started to stir and started to let out a very low growl looking intently at the door before climbing out of Lydia's arms backing away slightly and hissing.

@LadyRunic The little boy stared intently at Alice for a moment before going back over towards his grandmother and then tugged at her shirt for a moment. The elderly woman took a sip of the tea some more as she listened to Alice speak, the elderly woman nodded slightly. "Truly a tragedy what has been going on around the town, never thought the girl would go missing or even the mayor being murdered the way he did.." She said softly as she looked towards her grandson groaning slightly. "Alright, alright we should get going." She said as she finished up the rest of her tea. "If you ever do need help feel free to ask, I've been sewing for years." She said with a smile as she got up and made her way towards the front door. "My house is just across the street if you'd like swing by anytime." The boy turned around once more giving Alice a menacing look as his eyes turned black once more before leaving as well.

@Damo021 Miranda would have just started her shift at the café now the café was pretty busy around this time of day, people were in getting their lunch and sitting around and talking. She would notice the FBI Agent sitting in the corner of the café with her laptop on typing away at it with an empty coffee mug next to her. "Mind serving the other tables?" Miranda's boss asked, Olivia and Finley were both off for the rest of the day, as well as Kayla. There was one other waitress who was busing tables as well.

Abraham started to lower his gun looking over towards his niece for a moment and rolled his eyes slightly towards her. "I aint angry at all." He said towards his niece, he decided to not continue their conversation with Harry around. "So what are you doing out here by yourself?" Abraham asked he was slightly suspicious of the man before him, showing up shortly after a demon had moved past them but decided to stay quiet about it for now. Abe looked towards his niece for a moment and motioned for her to head back towards his car.

"Why don't you head back to the car and start her up yeah?" Abe asked as he fished through his pocket before pulling out his keys and handed them over to her. "And don't think of driving off without me." Abe said jokingly as he turned his attention back towards Harry. "So i'm guessing your the PI guy hired by the Walker family?" Abe asked slightly curious and trying to make some friendly conversation, and maybe get some information out of him as well.

Olivia turned her attention towards Joey for a moment as she thought about what to do, should she leave and search around later or stay. "I think we should get out of here." Olivia said as she watched Taylor chasing around Sadie as she couldn't help but giggle slightly when the dog came running over towards her nearly knocking her down as well. She watched Clifford for a moment the other dog seemed to be distressed or something.

"Hey Taylor, sorry but with that weird ass smell it sort have gotten the rest of us uncomfortable so we should head back to town and go from there." She suggested as she made her way towards Amanda's car as Amanda climbed into the car as well Olivia whistled towards Clifford as well motioning for him to follow her as well, Leo was doing the same as he got into the car. "We can hangout later or something as well." Olivia suggested towards Joey. "Or you can get more alone time with Taylor." Olivia winked playfully.

"Likewise." Although he didn't like being asked questions by strange people pointing weapons at him, his mental state was anything but furious at the moment. At the basest level his primal survival systems were alight, shouting DANGER, PREDATOR and pumping out the chemical cocktail that would let him move really quickly if need be. The higher conscious on the other hand was more suspicious and unwilling to help than anything. His eyes remained trained on the gun for the rest of the conversation.

"If I were the PI, it would be self-evident why I was here." Harry didn't really know why he was being so stubborn. Other than the gun, he didn't really have reason to be wary of either of these two, but he couldn't seem to help himself. Maybe it was the sulfurous odor that permeated the forest. Or he could just be hungry. He could go for lunch.

Finley Alestair


Location: Silver Mine





Finley could retort that it was his own fault for telling her not to do something (which drives the deepest parts of her brain to urge her to do the exact thing she shouldn't do), but decided against it. Instead, she held back whatever feelings she was having when he grabbed her hand. This was what...the fourth time they've done this today? Dammit, she hated acting like a girl!

As they walked deeper, she could sense something going on with Declan. His grip wasn't as strong as it usually was. Before she knew it, he fell over. She quickly tried to help him up and that was when she saw the burns. "Jesus, Declan, are you allergic to silver or something? That's not normal. We need to get you out of here." She tried standing him up and having him lean on her for support. It didn't matter if Jenna was in here or not (presumably not and that irked her) she needed him out and safely away.

“...” Kosara looked at Abe for a moment before sighing. Well there was an use of that and frankly should use the chance to set up a few devil's traps on the ground on the way. If she draws them on the earth with a stick, they will stay for a little or she could scratches them on a few trees forming a good trap that way.” Fine... I will wait in the car for now, don't you get lost or fall somewhere...” She said warningly.” I don't want to live alone if something happens to you, gramps.

“Be careful and return quickly. Make the kiddos start heading back before it starts to get dark if you meet them. Predator animals are more active after sundown. Best to have them out of the forest before that.” She threw in, as she bolted backwards towards the car. She planned to grab a few good positions around where they parked and make some devil's traps. The car was protected by sigils now so inside it should be safe, though around it was another matter.

“Better get started...” She mumbled to herself and just quickly took a stick from the ground, starting to draw a real basic one on the ground some distance between where she broke away from Abe and the car. She was going to make a few ones indeed.

She looked back, and saw James following her, but what followed that was not something that she had expected to occur, and it was not something that she could have predicted happening either. When she got out of the cellar, she heard the doors slam behind her, and she flipped around, seeing the doors shut, but James wasn't outside. His voice came through, and she started to panic. There was something down there, something that they hadn't seen, and it from the sound of things was something dangerous.

"Hold on James, I'm going to try and get you out of there," she called through the door, before she started to yank on them. There had to be someway to unlock them from the outside, there just had to be. Lydia looked over at the little kitten, which was now hissing at the door. Something wasn't right, and she just had to try and get him out. If something happened and she hadn't at least tried to help him, she didn't know what she would do.

Jenna Westbrook

Location: Silver Mine ---> Town Hall ---> Running


Jenna had never driven this quickly before in her life. By the time she made it to the silver mine, there didn't seem to be anywhere she could stow her car. The only real option was to put it in a ditch but it would be a nightmare to get out, and if she managed it, it would likely need some sort of repairs. "Fuck," Jenna cursed under her breath. She was running out of time. Any longer and she'd have to make up a story about her birth mother's psycho wife, the FBI agent, taking her phone to lure Declan and Finn into the silver mine as bait.

She'd much prefer to not have to create a lie about her lie.

Speeding off once more, Jenna went to the nearest place that would have some sort of suitable parking - the area near town hall. She would have preferred to park closer, but the ditch scenario was again the only one available. She was kicking herself for not coming up with a better reason to get Finn and Dec out of town hall earlier. But if demons were real and that was what Mayor Ryder had gotten himself into, she didn't want them to have any part of it. It'd be too dangerous for them. For her, it was different. She could see things that others couldn't.

Shutting off the ignition, Jenna nearly forgot to take the keys out of her car before she hopped off and took off at a run towards the mine. She made a mental note about the movement near town hall, but it was in the back of her mind. She'd just read the police records on all of this later. For now, she wanted to try to get to the silver mine before her lie would fall apart on itself.

Declan kept going through the mine, his grip on Finley's hand growing weaker and weaker the further along they got. As well as the light from outside beginning to fade from view. It was growing darker, and Declan's phone light was hardly strong enough to show any real detail of their surroundings. Dec's breathing was getting increasingly ragged, almost like he was having an asthma attack. He grit his teeth, thinking over and over in his head, 'Come on, come on, come on, come on..' After letting out a hoarse cough, Declan yelled out Jenna's name which seemed to echo through the entire mine. The yelling proved to be a bit much for the state he was in, curling him in on himself as he coughed again, this time with a bit of blood but he was quick to hide it from Finley's view.

It was at the same moment he coughed that he caught himself from falling, his hands pushed firmly into the ground. Bare, touching silver. Declan cried out with a curse, baring his teeth down at his hands as he stumbled to try standing, turning his hands over to see the burns. "Son of a bitch," he muttered under his breath. It wasn't till then that Dec realized Finley had been helping him to his feet and his arm was around her shoulders holding on like his life depended on it. Had it been light enough in the tunnel, she'd have seen how bright red his face was with embarrassment. He shook his head and scrunched his eyes together hard, feeling like his head was gonna explode from the migraine forming.

"Gotta be catching some sort of cold... y-you know what they say, men turn into big babies when they get sick." he laughed but it soon turned into another wracking cough. "As for the burns on my hands, I think there's something on the ground. I doubt its the silver causing this." Declan didn't know how else to be rid of her question, but he hoped it would work.

Alice Lynche




Location Her Cottage





Setting her teacup down when the elderly woman noted that it was indeed time for them to go. Alice nodded brightly, giving a small, though not timid, smile. "Of course, and don't feel as if that is one way. If you ever need a hand I'll be happy to help." Typical of the seamstress. To offer aid, when she would probably head in the opposite direction of the woman's home sheerly by accident. She was clever, but some of the minor and more common details got lost in translation to her head. Not once had someone blamed it on her raven noggin being full of nothing but fabrics, threads and needles. Though needles would be difficult to deal with in her noggin, Alice noted. They would prick and prod and she really didn't think that was all that comfortable.

Though she saw the eldery woman and the boy out, the tiny woman got a start when the child glared at her. She didn't understand why! Had she offended him? Did the biscuits go stale? They shouldn't have, she had just bought them. Moving in and all that. Unless she had gone to a unsavory shop again... It would not be the first time. Nor the last. Alice noted with a sad thought. She did really need to pull her mind out of the dresses and clothing she would sew. Though she did give a slight start when the boy's eyes flashed black. Was this a new trend or something? It looked horror movie esque. Was there some new horror out? She generally enjoyed watching them. But her taste was more towards the older ones. Shaking her head the girl shut and, after a second, locked the door and turned back to clean her house.

Well, till a embroidery needle caught her attention and she began a new piece on a plain gold blouse. Toning the bold color down with a deep brown. Not very eye catching but soft. Soft was good sometimes. It filled in something that was already there and enhanced other things. A small smile formed on her face while she worked.

Joey sidestepped the wet-dog and chuckled as he watched Taylor make chase. She awfully content despite the invisible tension that seemed to suspend in the air. Maybe only he felt it to that extent, but he wasn't going to chances with anyone elses premonition.

He mentally thanked God for giving Taylor such great insight. And then chastised it a moment later.

"You make a great point, Liv." he jibbed. "I think a lil alone time with Taylor would solve a lot of my lives problems right now. You sure you don't wanna join?"

@Morose As Jenna got out of her car and ran through the woods she would end up tripping on a branch. Jenna's ankle wasn't sprained or broken, but it hurt like a bitch and she would end up limping for awhile. But Jenna would manage to make it to the silver mine with no problem other then that.

@FantasyChic@Infamous Auror Other then feeling extremely weak and the massive headache the burns on Declan's hand would hurt like a mother fucker for Declan and if he were to stay any longer he would feel worse. The sooner they would get out the quicker Declan would feel better, was it really worth going into a mine knowing your weakness to the metal in search of your friend who wasn't even there? Declan is holding though but best better to get him out rather then trekking forward.

@BlueSky44 James continued to panic on the other end as he continued to bang on the cellar doors, but they still wouldn't budge at all. "Just hurry up!" James yelled as he looked back seeing the room getting much darker then it should have been, both of them would hear a weird, dark and sinister growl. Lydia would then suddenly hear James scream out, and then complete silence after that and the door would open. When Lydia got down she would see James laying on the floor, looking like he had been mauled to death just like the mayor was, when Lydia got a better look she would notice a yellow dust like residue that was left behind along with a weird sulfur like smell.

@LadyRunic The elderly woman and child had gone down back to their house as Alice was in her house by herself once more things were pretty quiet. Nothing happened as Alice went back to working on whatever she was working on, about five minutes later however one of Alice's mannequins fell down onto the floor on it's own, then another as well then a smell of sulfur happened to fill the room as well.

Abe watched as Kosara went off to head back to the car, and gave a nod it be a good few hours before the sun went down though. "I will that's if we don't leave before then." Abraham called out to his niece.

Abe then went back and started to search around the dirt and knelt down as he noticed a set of foot prints in the ground, and thought that maybe it was a continuation of the trail that they had found earlier. Abraham then turned to look over his shoulder towards Harry as he stood up and stretched slightly. "Hadnt found anything either on the missing girl I take it?" Abe asked.

Olivia said as she looked over towards the woods.

She noticed Kosara a bit of a distance away from where Abe had parked his car, slightly curious as Olivia then started to slowly make her way over towards her.

Interacting with:@NalloreJeanna Grayson



Miranda had not long started her shift, it was the later shift for her today which meant she missed speaking to Olivia or at least missed any tense moments between Oli and Fin, Miri often getting caught in the middles or nearby when those two don’t get on. It was pretty busy as many were getting lunch and generally talking about all sorts, normally was a good escape to stop thinking about Riley, but it was hard, the girl was like a sister to her and now she was missing which had the blonde teen often phasing out and being oblivious to what was going on around her, Miranda was not herself since the disappearance, she often stayed up late sitting outside hoping Ri would turn up, often she goes looking for her during the day when not working… But now was not the time.

Miranda was snapped out of her trance when she heard her boss call out. “Yes Sir.” Miranda would answer with a smile, even if it was fake. She looked around looking to see who needed any orders as her eyes stopped upon a woman sitting by herself with a laptop typing away, Miri remembered that it was the FBI agent that was looking in on the two cases, one a disappearance, the other being a murder.

She couldn’t recall if the agent had ever given her name out or not but Miranda did notice that her coffee mug next to her was empty. Despite it being her job, it was also a chance to see maybe any progress was made, she wanted Riley home. Making her way over to the table Miranda spoke up. “Excuse me ma’am… Would you like another refill?” She asked politely while smiling softly at the woman, it wouldn’t look good if she looked miserable while serving a customer right?

“Ohh.” Kosara let out a little sound of surprise when Olivia of all people showed up.' Speaking of the wolf.' The former hunter thought as she raise her gaze from the ground where she was currently making a rather fine devil's trap of she had to say so herself. She was rather surprised how well one could draw into the soil with a simple twig. Mostly because the soil was rather good around here.” Hey there, might as well ask the same question of you, though I do know the answer. Did you find anything?” Kosara smiled.

“Gramps decided to stroll about, with the PI that Riley's parents hired. We met him a little ago by chance and we … Abegramps... decided I will wait by the car.” She said the word Abegramps barely audible and resumed her soil drawings.” Decided while I wait, to do some research and test some things for my books. Since we smelled sulfur it reminded me of King Solomon. Have you heard of his legends?” Was her reply with an almost innocent smile as if she truly was doing nothing wrong!

“By the way, did you warn your friends to not stay till dark?” Kosara asked, the long bundled up object on the ground next to her as if to test Olivia." Wild predators are known to attack at night."

Embarrassment apart on Declan's behalf, she needed to get him out of there soon. What the hell was going on anyway? His asthma was bad, that was sure enough, but she hadn't seen a reaction like this in him before due to his asthma. This was no cold. This was something more. But there was no time to grill the big baby. So she kept him walking.

"I'm gonna kill Jenna for bringing us here on a wild goose chase. Gonna murder the hell out of her. Ok, maybe not murder, but definitely consider what I could and couldn't get away with. The cops can't do shit anyway. Hell, they haven't caught the mayor's killer yet and they have a fricken' video of it." Or so she thought.

Declan was hiding something. The Mayor was hiding something. Jenna was hiding something. Even she was hiding something. The secrets needed to get out. Soon.

Jenna Westbrook

Location: Silver Mine


Her mild dash was going fine, for the most part. Well, not great but it wasn't horrible. She managed to get out of town itself without any cards or pedestrians colliding into her, and the all important items were securely in her backpack. She didn't want to risk anyone stealing the book she had technically stolen from a crime scene. She had gone through a lot of effort to have that conversation with Mayor Ryder and she didn't want to walk away with nothing to show for it.

Though perhaps walking would have been for the best.

As she dashed through the woods, Jenna was relying mostly on luck to avoid tripping over roots, branches, plants, and the occasional squirrel that for some fucking reason seemed too high to get out of her way. The first few close calls weren't even properly acknowledged, yet the third one proved to be one too many. The branch caught on her leg, throwing her off balance and before she knew what was happening, she was plummeting to the ground. And while cats land on their feet, teenage girls running through the woods landed on their ankle.

"MOTHERFUCKING HELL!" Jenna hissed. She didn't have time for this. Grabbing the same branch she had tripped over, she used it to prop herself up and then as assistance in heading to the mine. It served as a walking stick/cane, though the latter description was likely more accurate at this point. It hurt to put weight on the thing - not enough for it to be broken or sprained, but enough to cause her considerable distress. By the time she made it to the outside of the mine, Jenna tossed the stick aside and took a deep breath. It would take all of her mental focus to keep quiet enough to creep along the outskirts of the mine and avoid Dec and Finn's attention. She didn't see them in the clearing, so they had to be in there.

Each step was pained, but she bit down on her tongue hard to keep herself quiet. She kept the edge, where the mine cast natural shadows, to avoid being seen. And by some stroke of luck, she managed to creep past them, hugging the wall and using the darkness as cover. Her soccer coach would've been proud. Hell, if Finn had been her accomplice in this, she was sure Finn would've been ecstatic.

Once she got a good distance away from Dec and Finn, Jenna let herself take a breath. She looked down at her ankle for a moment with pity, before she threw herself down to the ground. "FUCK THAT HURTS!" Jenna exclaimed, knowing that Dec and Finn would hear. She was on her back, clutching her ankle, at least thirty feet father into the mine than they were. By all appearances, she figured it would seem like she had been telling the truth the entire time. She even had an injury that was aggravated and would explain why she hadn't come out yet.

Lydia was terrified, as she kept yanking at the door, trying to get James out, but it was useless. The door wouldn't budge, and soon, she heard James scream from the other side. She stepped backwards for a moment, before trying the door again. Finding that it would open once more, she pulled it and stepped inside. "James?' she called out softly through the opening, but didn't get a response. She walked down the stairs, and saw James.

Lydia felt like she was going to be sick, and ran back up the stairs, back outside. She looked over at the kitten who was still there. Walking over to the kitten, she waited until he seemed to calm down a bit before picking him up. With one more glance back at the cellar, where her new friend was lying there dead, she turned back towards town and started heading back. She had to tell the police about it, they needed to know. The thing that killed James might have also killed the mayor, and now she was deeply regretting not going to the station when she first found the letter.

Harry watched Kosara leave as well, perhaps a moment too long for the old man's liking assuming he was a relative of some sort, but he couldn't do much to stop him other than shoot. And with every passing moment he was more an more confident that this conversation wouldn't end with him receiving a bullet wound of some form. At least he wouldn't be taking one from the old man in front of him.

"I've found something, but it's rather vague at the moment." The conversation steering back towards the case was enough to shake his head out of the stubborn, completely unhelpful mind-space it had been occupying moments before. Anyone in this town could know something that could be the key to solving this whole ordeal. It didn't pay to be pig-headed, especially this early into the case. "Apparently Miss Walker was visiting a certain someone here at the lake often just before her disappearance. Any idea who that could possibly be?" Harry left out the stuff about her being adopted. Unnecessary information for the current conversation.

Location: Red Lake
Interactions: Olivia @Nallore ; Joey { @LokiLeo789 }




"Nah I'm good not that interested in doing the whole threesome thing, you guys go do your boyfriend girlfriend thing." Taylor overheard Olivia, coming out of her mood from playing with Sadie. She didn't smile this time. It got old real quick when Joey was around while Olivia poked fun at her crush on him. Potentially it was vice versa, so Olivia once told her, but Taylor didn't put anything to it. Nothing ever really went her way, and she wasn't about to hold out on a possible crush. Taylor took a glance out over the lake as she chewed on her lower lip, thinking about what she might go do after they all took off.

"You make a great point, Liv. I think a lil' alone time with Taylor would solve a lot of my lives problems right now. You sure you don't wanna join?"

"I might spend some time out here by the lake a bit longer the water great and all." Taylor watched as Olivia wandered over towards the girl that had come down with Grumpy ol' Abe, narrowing her eyes at her friend, thinking 'The hell are you talking to her, for?!' Taylor wandered back over to Joey, standing beside him and nudged his shoulder with hers playfully. "So, what now, scaredy cat? Ready to go home?" she smirked at him, turning towards the direction Sadie had run off in, whistling for her dog to come back.








Location: Red Mountain // Abandoned Silver Mine
Interactions: Finley { @FantasyChic } ; Jenna { @Morose }




Declan wanted so badly to get out of there. He knew if he didn't soon, things would start to go real bad real quick. But where was Gwen? Was she actually in here, or..

"I'm gonna kill Jenna for bringing us here on a wild goose chase. Gonna murder the hell out of her. Ok, maybe not murder, but definitely consider what I could and couldn't get away with. The cops can't do shit anyway. Hell, they haven't caught the mayor's killer yet and they have a fricken' video of it."

Declan smirked, stumbling slightly as he attempted to walk towards the exit of the mine. "Well, she'll get 'murdered the hell out of' twice in one day." Suddenly he stopped in his tracks as he remembered something, cursing aloud. "Son of a bitch." Declan turns himself around and begins limping back to the spot he'd fallen at. "Dropped my goddamn phone, back there." Not that the phone was really that important, but he neither had the money for a new one, nor did he want to try and explain to his mom why and how he'd lost it. That was just a whole new bag of shit he just wasn't wanting to go through, and would rather avoid.

"FUCK THAT HURTS!"

Declan stopped, nearly falling to his knees in the process. He looked around in the dimly lit tunnel, trying to guestimate how far away Gwen was from them. 'Screw it,' he thought. If he could save his friend, he could care less about his own life. She sounded pretty hurt, aside from her obvious claim of her being in pain. The tone of it all said it clear as day. He didn't hesitate in dropping Finley's supportive arm and began hobbling further into the mine, stumbling along the way, yelling out, "Gwen! We hear you!! We're coming for you!" Everything was out the door, now. He knew he was gonna have to suffer some major consequences once they left the mine.

Clifford Norman~Red


Clifford finally looked over with his things still dangling out of his mouth when olivia waved him over. Large ears flicked and he slowly turned before trotting toward her and then stopping. He was still more than half tempted to go home, but he did still have to pretend to be a dog. His head turned back to look back at the direction of his house and then back toward her. An internal debate occurring in his mind about what to do. With a grumble and reservations he trotted toward Olivia.

Clifford found himself trotting toward olivia and soon caught up. With slowed movements he stopped beside her and nudged her leg with his head before looking at the same symbols she was. His head tilted to one side and then the other as he looked at these and then up at olivia. It did not seem like the wisest to disturb the symbol making nor did he want to know why exactly there were symbols in the first place. He nudged Olivia's leg once more with the hope she would leave. She probably wouldn't, but he could hope.
