[The poorest floors of the refugee quarters houses little to nothing of interesting. The deathly, barren quiet beings to play tricks on the mind, in the form of slight, unintelligable whisperings. However...]
[Do you ever get the feeling you're being watched?]
[[OOC: The arrival of the team to their destination, and getting started. Starts out quiet and empt, but slowly these will begin to flicker in the team's peripherals, never stepping into full vision, moving like shadows. Very quiet, almost inaudible whispers will slowly start to be heard, increasing in frequency, that the babblefish can't translate. Occasionally, 'leave' or 'stay away' slips through, and very rarely, a 'stay' or 'help us'. They'll begin increasing in numbers ( ... )

Still, that's why they were here, wasn't it? The Captains thought it odd how most of Sigrun's inhabitants shied away from the area. They were here to see for themselves if it was truly 'safeguarded' by something, and if it was as safe as everyone presumed. And perhaps grab some stuff on the way out, too.
...It was still boring.
Remilia glanced back at her 'team'. Sakuya's presence was a given; she wasn't surprised that Youmu and Karen had wound up tagging along with her. The Yama, however... How in the world had the Yama ended up with her ( ... )

"As the only non-combatant, someone should probably stay close to Karen-san at all times," Sakuya suggested. "It's quiet now, but I'm sure there must be something around here to be wary of."
Of course, the maid would want to stick close to Remilia, but she knew the vampire was capable of taking care of herself - until they saw better reason, splitting up in a small area would help them search more quickly.

She listened as Remilia and Sakuya talked, and could not help but look towards Karen with the maids suggestion. She wondered about that but said nothing.
"It's quite fortunate this area is one of the safer ones. There will be less issues and what you have come to search for should be easier to retrieve," she spoke in a cheerful conversational tone. "But I will make sure Karen comes to no harm."

[To those more interested in the scenery, a number of interface panels lining the way have been opened, some more forcefully than others, and wires rearranged. Some wires have even been stripped and spliced together. Someone, or something, has obviously been here first.]
[It is to be noted, however, that while the ghosts are passive, their numbers begin to rapidly increase. By the time the team is ready to move on to the upper-class district, the flock of shadows sitting just outsite your vision is almost suffocating ( ... )

.........stay a-ay....
If one excluded the strange voices and shadows whispering about. The vampire classified the abnomalies as harmless; they didn't seem to be hostile-hell, they didn't even step fully into her vision-and hadn't tried to interfere yet. The shadows didn't spook her, either, so Remilia simply shoved them to the back of her attention.
"Keep searching. We still have a lot of ground to cover." Her eyes glanced over the walls and the exposed panels and wires. It meant nothing to the vampire; technology was far from her strong point. With that, she floated off to the closest room cluster.

"They are increasing, and this is concerning."

Quietly, she moved into another separate room cluster, looking about and keeping her ears open in case something should take a turn for the worse.

[Which becomes ever so evident when the team crosses the threshold of a paticular dwelling. The voices are growing angry, and the shadowy creatures begin stepping into sight...]
[[OOC: Here, the ghosts are nearly impossible to block out. They start to step into sight, surrounding and flocking to the team in incredible numbers. Once the plot item is discovered, the ghosts will grow angry (this will be cued), becoming these. The hushed tones and wails shift into ( ... )

It was bigger than the rest. The other dwellings were of considerable size, surpassing Thor's Suites, but that one... the vampire was absolutely drawn to it. She had to see inside it. It still wasn't close to the size of her Scarlet Devil Mansion, but still...
Without a word, and temporarily distracted from the ghosts, the vampire began floating towards that massive housing unit.

"Did you find something?"

"I think we are growing closer to whatever it is we're looking for."

[By the way... you'll have an ominous feeling that the data stick is going to be highly important, later... Don't loose it.]
[[OOC: Use this time to rest, discuss the aftermath, examine the data gained, and of course, have Thor-nanigans, or whatever you want to do. And salvage some more, in cause the ghosts were too distracting. For more fun-time encounters, there are space pests lurking ("tentacle rats, blob spiders, deep space shriekbats, or whatever else your mind can come up with," quoth Sigrun data)) in the vents. Do what you will with this~]]
