The sound of the door banging shut behind them made Yukiko jump, but the audible<span style="font-style: italic">click</span>that told her the door was locked was what really scared her.<br/>"Hey! What the-?! Did you lock the door?!" she shouted at Kenji, although she knew it wasn't him. The fear that was building up inside of her made her feel like she had to lash out at<span style="font-style: italic">something,</span>and he was the only other living thing there. Yukiko raised her shaking arms and started slowly scanning the area, desperately trying to pick up something. As she moved around the room, she dragged her feet along the ground rather than picking them up, as it was nearly impossible to see much of anything and she wasn't sure what kind of things were there to get in her way.<br/><br/>"H-hello..? Is.. anyone here..?" she asked nobody in particular, her voice shaking and sounding nothing like her usual, confident self. She sounded more like a scared child than anything. As she expected, there was no audible response from any ghost or spirit. If there was something here, it seemed more like the vengeful, deadly kind than a misunderstood haunting. Maybe it intended to suffocate them to death..?<br/><br/>Moving around the room was difficult and slow, and the occasional blips and spikes she would get from both the EMF meter and EPV listener didn't serve to ease her mind at all. At one point she accidentally bumped into someone, who she could tell was Kenji - after all, there were no other physical creatures there, and it definitely wasn't just a shelf or something. Still, she jumped back in surprise all the same.<br/>"Uah! Oh god, I'm sorry. Are you okay? We gotta find a way out of he-" As she was talking the interference playing through the listening device gradually grew stronger. The closer she was to Kenji, the louder it got. The meter was going haywire, too.<br/>"..What.. What the hell is this?! These things are going<span style="font-style: italic">nuts</span>around you!"
