Shauna hadn't been back to her place in some time. The lawn was mowed her mail picked up and everything was set inside as she came in. She turned around looking at the place and sighed. It was like somthing just relaxed in her as she walked around the place and started making plans to remodle it in her head. She had all the plants and such that would go on a couple walls as she had planned in the Elysium and a few hangings that she had diverted here after she noticed the new Keeper...like the old one hadn't changed a thing.

There came a knock at her door.

Shauna went to the door and used the hole to peek out to see who was there.

Admin Posts : 3049 Join date : 2010-10-06

While she was looking out, the knock repeated. But there was no one there.

She slipped out her handgun from it's holster before she unlocked the door. "Just a second." She called out softly as if she was at some distance fro the door. And she planted her foot in such a manner to keep it from flying in her face or for someone taking a shot through the door at her before she carefully opened it.

The smell of rot hit her nose, but there was nothing there. There should be a very large dead body right there, by the smell of it, but there wasn't.

Her porch was empty.

"Zombie jokes are not funny. Come around back...." She muttered softly and slipped her hand held radio into her other hand just in case. She stepped around the door looking all around with HS sight to see if someone was hidden a la Nossie and maybe with one of their hang ups. "If you need help." She added just as softly.

There was nothing there to her sight. Nothing and no one. But the smell....Oh, the smell. It was a good thing she didn't have to breathe.

"What the fuck." She muttered and finally stepped out closing an locking the door behind her. She continued to look around up and down. People didn't usually look up but hey...she wasn't the average Joe on that either. Stepping out she began a meticulaous look and investigation of the area to find the source of the stench or the evidence of something having been there recently. (Requesting Investigation Roll.)

There was...something. Something off. She couldn't quite put her finger on it, but there was something there.

After checking the entire area she moved around the side and back of the house looking for the source. She also got on the radio and called for Kyle to make his way to the House and then took out the phone to call Jim. (PM sending to player.)

The smell faded as she walked away from the front, but grew again as she got to the back door.

Methuselah Posts : 2553 Join date : 2011-10-03

She finished the Call to Jim as a massage to get over there ASAP and stopped at the back door. "Rubbed scent?" She muttered as she examined the back door as she had the front this time looking to see if anything was smudged in place and staining the door or the jams or the side of the house. "Fuckin' annoying assholes." She cursed out loud as she was looking around the back. "Make the dog nutzo thanks..."

Admin Posts : 3049 Join date : 2010-10-06

As she looked, she discovered that the scent was coming from...no where. It was just there, hanging in the air.

Methuselah Posts : 2553 Join date : 2011-10-03

"Ya know this isn't funny." She muttered again as she waves her hand with the radio in it through the scented area to see if it dispersed.

Admin Posts : 3049 Join date : 2010-10-06

It didn't disperse. It just sat there. But as her hand wafted through it, she felt a chill.

Shauna blinked. "OK. EMF..." She knew the FLAR system did heat but the electrical detector might pick up if this was ghosties. She said. "Stay if you can." And she ran for the car holstering the pistol in the process. She grabbed the Electrical system detector and checked the battery before she headed back to the back door. "Now lets see if I get something mid air here." She muttered as she passed the dial wand over the area. "I'm no Ghosthunter's TV show but hey I can try."

Admin Posts : 3049 Join date : 2010-10-06

There was nothing to pick up. Nothing was there as far as the detector could tell. But the smell was almost overwhelming.

Methuselah Posts : 2553 Join date : 2011-10-03

"Wow." Shauna said the little breath needed nearly gagged her. She got a ping on her phone and looked quick, giving a nod to the phone slipping it back into her holster. She stepped back took a breath then stepped forward and said very low. "Be gentle but I need to know, can you do anything but stink the area?"

Admin Posts : 3049 Join date : 2010-10-06

I guess you could call it gentle, when she felt the right half of her hair get pulled.

Methuselah Posts : 2553 Join date : 2011-10-03

"Well I'll be..." She smiled. "Listen you relax if you can. I get the point. I called someone who is better than me for this stuff. I remember a ghost at the fire house in Philly, he used to help sort with the probies. When he gets here maybe we can find out who you are OK?"

She picked up her phone and texted back to Jim. ~I think Ghost and friendly if stinky.~

Admin Posts : 3049 Join date : 2010-10-06

Her hair pulled again. Sharply.

Methuselah Posts : 2553 Join date : 2011-10-03

"Ow hey easy there." She said. "I'm teasing. Though it's good to know you can see as well." She got thoughtful for a moment and pulled out a pencil and paper pad she used to take notes in a fire scene. Electronics still having a fit in ash situations the old way was still often the best. "Can you manipulate a pencil?" She said holding the pad solidly and offering the pencil to the air. "Name? Reason for being here? I mean, why me?"

The sound of Jim's bike could be heard coming closer to the house. Not a common sound, his bike... but not unusual for her neighbors to hear.

There was no movement of the pencil. No movement at all.
