When Sabel awoke to find himself still in his costume, he was not a happy camper. He tried to tug the damn thing off but to no avail. With a sigh, he moved to stand when he felt

Kitchel was already on her feet, standing dumbstruck in front of the mountain of dolls. "Why are there so many? Who the hell would even bother collecting stuff like this?" she asked, picking one up and pulling the string on its back. It jerked, raising its arms robotically and lisping mechanically "ma-maa".

Seriously. This was weird.

[thefaerieknight]

"Well whoever it was, had really poor taste. If they were trying to go for the creep factor, it failed in terms of the dolls."

Sabel kicked one that was lying on the ground. "Though they must have been pretty obsessed with them."

[stolen_gold]

Kitchel tossed the doll she was holding back into the pile, then turned to Sabel, fiddling with her scarf. "Let's see what else is in this place. Unless you want to just stay in here forever."

[thefaerieknight]

"Like I'd want to stay here?" Sabel said with a look. "If you can find a door, go right ahead, Ms. Thief Adventurer."

[stolen_gold]

"Like, of course I can?" Kitchel was getting excited and she looked around the room, her view blocked by the mounds of dolls. "Come on!" She pointed and started scrambling up the nearest pile, slipping little as she made her way to the top.

"Sure take the hard way," he laughed before closing his eyes and teleport.

2/2

[thefaerieknight]

...Or he would if he could.

"What the hell?!" he yelled as he found that he couldn't use any of his powers.

[stolen_gold]

Sabel startled her and she lost her grip, slipping down the mountain of dolls. "What's the matter?"

[thefaerieknight]

"I can't use my powers!" he yelled, not really paying attention to her as he continued to try cast a spell, any spell.

"Aaaaauuuuuuggghhhh!!"

[stolen_gold]

Kitchel sat down at the base of the mound to watch him freak out.

"Chill," she advised. "There's probably just some sort of barrier or something in here. Maybe the dolls are sucking up your magic."

[thefaerieknight]

"Oh wonderful," he said with a roll of his eyes as he turned to look at her. But his expression was slowly changing as he squinted a little.

Did something..just move?

Sabel took a few steps toward her as he tried to figure out what it was.

[stolen_gold]

"...Huh?" Kitchel turned to look behind her, following his gaze. "What're you doing?"

[thefaerieknight]

Sabel thought he heard another noise from below and looked down.

"...Kitchel," he said after a second. "You might want to move from where you're standing."

[stolen_gold]

"Huh?" Kitchel started to stand slowly then leapt to her feet. "Something grabbed me!" she shrieked, surprised, and jumped back.

[thefaerieknight]

"Well I tried to warn you," Sabel said before he caught a sudden movement from the corner of his eye and jumped away, just missing the flying arm that was aimed at him.

"Oh great," he groaned. "They move. And want to kill us."

[stolen_gold]

"That's perfect." She agreed wholeheartedly. "You're used to dolls. You deal with them!"
