*Beeping sounds form the SUV radio, woke Pheonix up from a deep slumber.She scooted herself up and listened to the wheather advisery for the area. At the warning on the radio, she looked at the rest of her team and shrugged her shoulders.*
"we have an assignment to do, 'come rain or shine the case is done in time'. You all know the boss's motto."
*she turns the radio channel and finds a soft R&B song on the radio, then looks at the others for approval, and they nod in approval*
"I can't believe that, he has gotten us out here in this wheather."
*Pheonix looks towards the back seat and smiles at her freind*
"I agree, however, if he is willing to pays us for time and inconvience , I am all for it. Consider it a nice vacation"
*she smiles back at them*
"Famous last words"
*she looks over at her freind driving who made that remark*
"well, you never know, do you?"
*they pulled up into the driveway of the address that was given to them. They climbed out of the vehicle and stretched there legs as they looked up at the sky and saw the dark clouds heading there way.*
"that doesn't look good, does it?"
*they all look at the sky. Pheonix looks over at her freind who is standing in the opposite direction with her mouth wide opened.*
"what are you looking at?"
*she turns around with the others to see the biggest scariest house they ever saw*
"Oh my goodness, this is a little disconcerning isn't it?"
*she signaled for some of the others to unload the equipment out of the vehicle, as she went with one of her freinds to the large front door. SHe knocked and waited for an answer*
"I am pretty sure this is the place"
*she looks at ther freinds and then at the address, then to the slip of paper with the address on it.*
"Yep, this is the place, same address"
*the door finally opens. She looks up to see a young man standing behind the door*
"Good morning, My name is Pheonix and this is David, my partner. I am to understand you called"
*He was releived by there presence. He explained how he called his freind, which happened to be Pheonix's boss in for a favor.*
"Well, we will do our best to help"
*He let them in and they were in the hallway entrance. Then he left without any explaination*
"well, the nerve. I guess we should look around and then get set up, what do you think?"
*thay started towards the stairwell*
"Let's earn our paycheck"
*Pheonix and David headed up the stairs . Each time they stepped down, the stairs would creek. David turns around to Pheonix*
"well that just adds a little scary effect doesn't it?"

((No clue if you still want to rp this thread, but since I made a charrie I like, thought I'd give 'im some exercise lol))
He was crouching on the stairwell, having watched the short exchange and the two newcomers enter. Now he watched as they made their way up the stairs, each step being protested by the ancient wood beneath them. In the dim lighting, he could see very little of their actual features, so, with an easy blink, he shifted his normal vision to shadowsight. The black of his iris and pupil bled into the whites of his eyes until every part was black.
Now, he could see the two very clearly, every slight movement, their features, and even the individual hairs on their heads. Every part of them glowed silver in the sudden blackness that surrounded them. When he had had a good enough look and judged that they were a bit too close for comfort, Kyr edged back. The creak was loud in the oppressive silence and he turned, dodging into the nearest room as quick as he could. Luckily for him, it had two other connecting doors and a full length mirror. It was to this last that he turned and, placing a hand on its surface, he stepped through it.
The world he entered was cold and stormy, the wind whipping his hair as he turned back to look at the room. He was a dim shape in the mirror, not quite there, but not invisible either and that was how the room appeared to him as well, though by stepping closer he could make it clearer.

*After a short while, Phoenix and David return to the stair way. The front door was slightly ajar and the stair's creeks echoed through out the foyer. As they decended the stairs, a slight scent was on the wind*
"Did you smell that?"
*She whispered towards David.*
"A subtle but sweet flowery smell"
*As soon as she spoke about it, the scent was gone. She entered the living room area that was adjacent to the left. When entering it, she noticed the enormous size.*
"WOW"
*Both stood there for a moment before entering further in"
"I don't think my house is this big."
*She looked at the fireplaced on each side of the room. the crystal chandelers that hung from the ceilings. Portraits adn ceiling to floor mirrors hung on the walls.*
"This place is amazing. I wonder why this place can't seem to keep a tennant."
*She walked over to the fireplace on the left and a hairs on the back of her neck stood up. She turned to look at David*
"I can't help but feel that we are being watched. But I havent seen anyone here, have you? Perhaps this place is the real deal."

To find out where they had gone, Kyr stepped away from the world and entered the chaotic landscape he had come to call Reflection, for lack of a better name. There was no silidity beneath his feet, only roiling grey-black clouds that somehow held his weight. Now and again a brief light would flare up in whatever direction, which meant that a mirror was there. The boy waited until the right light flashed, it was a vast stretch and he knew that he had made it to the lower levels. For some strange reason he had yet to determine, though it seemed to take a great length of time to reach his destination, that was never the case. In fact, it was normally quite the opposite.
Now, he glanced out to see the two people inspecting the living room. They seemed just as awed as he had been by it, but he liked the room now, if only for the huge mirror he was now standing in. Kyr stepped closer to the shimmering surface, peering through it to stare at the people with curiousity. He didn't know why they were here, but they seemed a bit... unsettled.

"I am telling you I feel like we are being watched."
*She rubbed her arms and shook it the uneasiness off.*
"Lets get the equipment in and set up, tell the others I am wanting the base to be in here...and I want cameras, there, there, there and there."
*She pointed to all four corners of the room.*
"I want a camera on the foyer, leading up the stairs and on pointing down from it as well."
*she look over at the mirror across from her, she adjusted her sweater and then fixed her hair. *
"I would like a camera in the rooms on the list , a couple in the attic and three in the basement. "
*She continued as she turned around*
"If we have enough camera, I would likeon outside on the grounds facing the house."
*She then pucked up a bag that was already brought in, and pulled out a bagel. *
"I wouldn't mind someone going to get some coffee as well, I think it will be a most interesting weekend. Whenthe equipment is set up, we will discuss breaking up into teams."

Kyr eyed the lady as she began to talk and gesture, pointing to various places in the room and then started fixing herself up. Stepping as close as he dared, Kyr watched the proceedings. That was when he noticed the food. His stomach gave a low grumble as the lady bit into the bagel and Kyr edged so far forward that his nose was causing ripples to spread across the surface of the mirror he was standing in. Crouching down, the boy waited until each had their backs turned and then he darted back into the room, squeezing his thin body quickly behind a large chair.
Licking his lips, Kyr peeked out from his hiding place, wondering what he should do to get some food. He knew where the kitchens were, though no mirrors hung in them, but he wanted to make sure he knew where these people were so he could stay away from them, or at the least, keep them from caoturing him.

*Phoenix sat down on the dusty couch. as she finished her bagel. She observed the curtians flowly ever so lightly as the wind blew in from the cracks inthe walls. She watched as the spider in the corner had caught its prey.*
"How old do you think this house is?"
*She reached over the arm of the couch and pulled a file out of her bag. She then placed it on her lap and opened it , and scanned for an answer to the question.*
"According to this, it was built in 1778. It was orginally a Dukes manor, but after he died, it was sold and became a private school for boys. It didn't stay a school for long though, it was sold several times, but the owners never stayed long and the house would go back on the market. The new owner, wants us to find out why."

((I'm back!! and hope to keep it that way))
Kyr listened as they spoke to each other, but what had really caught his attention was the bag where the woman had pulled out the bagel from. With careful hands, he pulled it towards him, watching the two as he did, but all his care went to waste when he accidentally tipped it and let the files fall out against him with a loud rustle and thump. He stood, surprised and stared for a breath at the two adults in the room with him before he leapt over the back and ran back towards the wall.
Instead of stopping however, he did just what he had done earlier and stepped through into the world of Reflection. The long mirror rippled in his passing as if it were an upright pond and when the ripples cleared the faint outline of the dark-eyed boy could be seen, staring back out at them with curiousity and wariness.

*As Phoenix discuss the case with the others, she heard a thumb from behind her. She turned quickly to see that her bag had fallen over and a good majority of her files were now all over the floor. Just as she looked up frm the floor she caught her reflection in the mirror, but for a split second, it didnt look like a clean reflection but a blurried reflection of herself. She then bent down and starting picking up the files*
"I have to admit , this place does seem to be starting off with some interesting happening. I do not understand why my bag fell over...it is not light enough to fall without force. Perhaps there is something to this case."
*She stood up with the last pile of pages she collected from the floor and started to arrange them in correct order as she moved closer to the couch.*
"You know I was thinking. Has anyone checked into the history of the construction of the house? I mean we should check into the land the house was built upon. During that time frame, Houses were often built upon Indian burial spots. This might be a contributing factor as well."
*She bent over and placed the neatly adjusted files but into her bag.As she was bent over a strange sensation came over her. The back of her neck had a prickly sensation, as if little pins were dancing up on it. It sent a shiver down her spine. She then stood up and looked behind her as if to expect someone to be there*
"What is it?"
*She answered her colligues question with a shaking of her head*
"I don;t know...it's...well I am not sure. I can't help but feel as if we are being watched."
*She then turned back and tried to shrug it off, but she knew better. *
"I have had this feeling that there is definately something or someone else in this house. I can't explain it, I can't even make out its emotions...but I do beleive we are not alone here."
*Inhaling deeply and exhaling, she clapped her hands together and smiled.*
"Well enough of that...we need to get back to work and get the remainder of this equipment set up."
* She grabbed one of the cameras and connected the wire to it and then ran the wire through her hand till she reached the end, carried it to the far corner and placed it on the fireplace mantle...and began adjusting it and setting it accordingly.*
