"No. I was forced to leave after she died, and my father came to pick me up." She snickered at the memory. "He ran like the hounds of hell themselves were on their heels once we were out of the house, out to the car on the main road." Elizabeth hadn't ever realized why, but she felt as if she was starting to, feeling as though the entire thing was slowly fitting together like a puzzle being put together before her very eyes, but, well, all being done in her head at the moment. "And it's not spooky." She claimed towards Aleksey with a small roll of her eyes. "It wasn't ever spooky." In all truth, the house was, in fact, feeding off what energy of magic was simply pouring from her, still not having learned to cap that flow, though she couldn't really tell nor care to tell, for the seeping was taken in by the house made such a small impact on herself that she didn't notice.<br/><br/>But it was still... Different. This time, there actually<span style="font-style: italic">did</span>feel as if there were someone watching. Something, someone, maybe something<span style="font-style: italic">s</span>. Elizabeth slowly walked further into this rather strange house, stepping to be in front of the somewhat long, narrow hallway that held nothing in it. This time the light there wasn't on. Yet as she'd stepped she felt as though something had scurried, yet her eyes hadn't been able to catch whatever it came from. Holding up a hand to the hall, she murmured a word softly and the light flickered on, more scurrying sounded but something was left in the middle of the hallway, looking like a deer in the headlights of a car about to be hit. Sitting there was what appeared to be a shadow of some sort, though it had a form and stood up unlike a shadow which was naturally against the ground, two little red eyes peering out while it was under the height of a foot, probably under half a foot, even.<br/><br/>Elizabeth tilted her head at the small shadow creature but slowly stepped forward, closer to it. The shadow twitched but didn't move, staring at her intently as if waiting for an attack or a fast movement. Elizabeth spoke another word in a beckoning manner as if calling to a dog in another language, crouching down at the same time, now less then two feet from this creature. As if she'd said a magic word, the creature rushed and ran to her, but instead of jumping at her for an attack of some sort, right when it got to her, the creature simply seemed to shift and suddenly was a solid black cat- Yet still made of shadows with the same red eyes, somewhat smaller then a normal cat. Blinking twice as this now shadow cat rubbed up against her leg with a quite audible purr, she had to tilt her head. "Did you little guys scare my father back then?" She questioned, and obviously understanding, the shadow cat nodded and jumped to her lap to rub against her stomach instead, obviously trying to get some pets though one would find that rather strange.<br/><br/>"No one ever tries getting in, though. And.." Why hadn't they attacked her? Unless.. They weren't supposed to attack her. She looked over at Aleksey and couldn't help but try to stiffle a laugh. Another little shadow, this time purposely taking the form of a small little dog slowly crept towards Aleksey with what appeared to be fangs bared protectively. "Come on.."
