Kenji’s hands roamed the walls suddenly. A Loud resounding click filled their ears. They cast each other a warily. Then they were standing in Air as the water stained carpet slid away from beneath them. Each gave a quick gasp of surprised followed by an echoing scream as they plummeted into the dark. A minute later their bodies landed with a soft thud. Wincing from the impact but unharmed, Plu struggled to sit up on top of what appeared to be sacks of flour at the bottom of a deep dark passage. Above their heads a speck of light loomed, not chance of escape came to mind at that moment. She groaned softly and flopped back down. Her golden hair fanning about her.
"Haunted House my arse… this place it just plain dangerous.“.
She glanced off into the murky darkness trying to makeout the outline of Kenji. At first she couldn’t catch much, then slowly as her eyed adjusted she caught a shock of his pale hair. Picking up her sore legs she scooted over to his somewhat still frame. Atleast his chest was still rising. Gently she reached a hand towards him, grasping his side and giving him a worried shake.
"Kenji…. Kenji… you alive?"

The two fell fast to the darkness below. Unfortunately for Kenji, he didn't land completely on the sacks, but only about halfway on them. His upper portion collided hard with the cold stone, knocking all air out of his lungs. Struggling to breath he barely caught the comment of Pluto, and really didn't care. All that was in his mind know was to breath, but it was hard as the impact momentarily stunned him. Listening in to the movements from his master, his eyes took longer than normal to adjust. Still, he was able to make out the body edges of her, and was able to tell that she was checking up on him. "Kenji…. Kenji… you alive?" but expecting a quick answer was useless.
After taking a few seconds to calm his body, he took in a deep breath, and released it. Continuing his heavy breathes he nodded, though Kenji was pretty sure she wasn't able to see that nod. Talking in a slight whisper, having not enough oxygen to increase his voice strength anymore, "Ouch..." Struggling to his feet, Kenji staggered a bit, trying to regain full consciousness. Luckily he hadn't hit his head on the stone, or... well there would be large sticky mess in the Haunted House. After taking a few seconds to regain full body control he started to speak, "Yeah... What about you?...[/color]
Retreating his left hand to the spot where his back hit the ground, he winced in a bit of pain. This was surely going to leave a mark in the morning. Pacing back and forth, with a bit of a hop to his walk, Kenji tried to focus his mind somewhere else than the pain. Professors have claimed that ignoring the nerve signals that indicate 'pain' you won't be able to notice it is much. Common things people do to do that is begin to bounce and think about something fun. Well... Kenji had to admit, it was working, though he was hoping it would have worked more as the pain was still throbbing.

She let the breath she’d caught go when she heard his voice. Good. The response was delayed and the tone riddled with masked pain, though really she felt no need for him to show it. Maybe it was a male pride thing. She wrung her hands a little rug burned from pressing into the sand bags. Which led her to wonder who on earth had put these down here. Her brow furrowed and as she examined their cell. Four solid walls all made of compacted dirt. A rough guesstimate by the light above had her thinking they fell good 20 or so feet. The could try to climb the walls but the dirt would most likely not support their weight and eventually they’d dig their own grave.
"This is ridiculous. “.
She finally muttered her lips twitching into life at long last. She attempted to stand wiping what would she assumedly think as dirt from her person. She couldn’t quite tell in the near darkness and could only make out the faint outline of Kenji. Her hands roamed along the walls searching for some switch, maybe even a ladder. But to no avail. She released a troubled breath and shook her bed; her hair a normal golden honey looked almost white in the half-light. She turned at last and stepped towards where she believed Kenji lay.
"Nothing…and I suppose your Alice can’t get us out of here?"
If that was so they were trapped… like rats in a cellar until someone else came along to fish them out. And considering they had wandered the entirety of the house already that seemed more then mildly unlikely. Brilliant.

"Nothing…and I suppose your Alice can’t get us out of here?" Pluto asked, with a somewhat agitated tone. Rubbing his chin he shrugged, though it was pointless as the darkness covered all moves by him. Sighing he said. Well... I suppose it could..."[/color] Finally it came to them that they hadn't showed one another their alice yet. Rubbing his forearms, a stinging chill ran up them and to his back, but it didn't effect him a single bit. After working so long with this alice, Kenji pretty much became immune to this temperature drop. "Well... It seems that there is no other way, so I'll get us out..."[/color]
Focusing his mind, the vision of the molecular sized water drops became clear to his eyes. The drops of water started freezing over while gathering to one spot. And, within a second there was a diamond shaped piece of ice above. The diamond was made to reflect the light, and though it now looked as if they were bombarded with rainbow colored lights, the two were finally able to see what was going on. Glancing back over at Pluto, Kenji warned, "Be careful, this part gets slippery."
Refocusing his mind on his alice, the ground underneath them became to rumble. At first water started emerging from below, but once showing their form it froze over. The ground was soon filled with ice, but it didn't stop there. Slowly it pushed up, and they both came closer to the hole above. After the cycle started, everything went smoothly. Giving 5-10 seconds the two were now halfway between the rooms. Hoping up back into the previous hallway, Kenji quickly revolved around towards Pluto. Holding out a hand, he sort of offered to help her up. Though she'd probably ignore the assistance like before...
