Trying to think of something to say that would fill the slight awkward silence that flit between them, Astryd was saved by Mellony's question. "Staircase?" Moving forward, the young woman peered down the stairs warily. "It's completely black down there. I can't tell where it leads." Her green eyes narrowed as she kept looking, pausing when she saw something move. Standing frozen, the voice from earlier seemed to echo in her mind.
We could be something's snack. Reed swallowed quietly, glancing back at Mellony. "Did you get a creepy doll that talked about being someone's meal? Or was that just me misunderstanding?" She could have sworn she saw something reflecting light down there.
The thing that scared Astryd the most was the fact that she had no weapon. Mentally making that a priority, the daring girl took a step down the first stair. "You didn't happen to catch what kind of things will be doing the eating, did you, Mellony?"
