They circled the building finding nothing but Connor th Earl. He hurt his back badly. HE carried a sheet in his hands wich was full of blood. He was still energetic and excited to talk about what he had found. But they rather went back inside.
After taking the drunk Dr. Peanut up into his room Dr Marija went into hers but not before asking Cleve if he always cooks. Appearently he even lives in the kitchen, wich would surprise nobody by the way he smells.
Back on the inside Earl Connor told the others what he had found on the outside. The bloodied sheet and the steps on the wall. About that they lead to a room with apparent entrance other than a window wich was closed, that's where he fell before McARthur, Valentin and Mathew came outside. The Earl went to his room after before going to sleep.
McArthur did so as well. He waved out his room to wish Mathew and Valentin a good night.
>>We should also head to bed. It's already pretty late. Good night Valentin. Sure hope the night won't be as strange as this day.<<
>>Quite the same feeling from me. Also a good night is what I wish to you. Hope the others sleep well too.<<
Both of them also headed toward their rooms and laid rest upon their bodies.
The creaking of a door was heard throughout the manor and steps followed through the halls. A shadowly figure slendered down the right hall and up the left and back.
A strange feeling woke McArthur. There was something strange in the air, as if he was floating, although he clearly felt his feet on the ground. He marched over to the door open it slightly then stoping. He looked back to the matresse on the ground wich was empty. In his mind "Where is Maximilian?" A noise in the halls made him pull out his revolver. As he stepped into the halls they shone in a blue light. You didn't even need any light anymore to see.
A dark figure swung around the corner into his sight staring at him in dark robes. Out of an reaction McArthur rose his weapon and sent a bullet flying the figures way.
