And here is where they found all the hot info, neatly stored on a thumb drive by Steve Pool! The top floor was well-investigated, but the rest might still be dangerous. Still, doesn't seem very challenging, nor interesting.

The 403 posse rolled their bikes up to the stairs and dropped them, jogging up and getting inside as quickly as possible. The building had three stories above the street level, and seemed like at least one or more below. The lobby had an old corpse in it, face down, and a few scattered papers. Certainly, no one using this place for an enclave would have left that here. Seth seemed to be getting his spirit back. Seth- "I have a good feeling!" He smiled, but his eyes were hard to look at. In the relatively brighter light of this building, the whites of his eyes were still glossy red.
Ben's torch had been diminished in strength by use on the ghost of Dan Lewis, but still has a bit of life left in it. Ashley's torch was still strong, Anna's seemed close to burning out. She did have a spare, Seth did not. They walked a little deeper into the lobby to discuss strategy. Anna- "I prefer working buildings top down. What do you think?"
Seth- ""Alright, makes sense, won't get stuff falling from the ceiling this time! Right? Haha......"

Ash would give him a flashlight, and has an extra flare. "I agree with her sentiment. We should go." He says, offering to walk in front again as their meat shield.

Seth accepted the fresh flare and everyone fell in behind Ashley, looking for the easiest stairs up. Anna- "Here we go!"

Ben- "Yeah, here we go. Might as well leave the beta player down here though."

Ash heads up, gaze downverted a little in case of ghost contact along the way.

They dropped a backpack of goodies immediately inside the stairwell and began their ascent - a short three floors in a sunny, wide stairwell. They reached the top floor. The area they were in contained offices close by, and a glance down the hall suggested the news studio and associated rooms took up the rest of the floor. Anna- "Maybe we go through quick for monsters, then come back and take our time going through things. Feels a little tense the other way, I think."
Seth- "Alright. I think my perception ain't the hottest at the moment, so commander Anna, shall you lead?"
Anna- "OK, gents. Try to keep up." Anna walked briskly into the hall, throwing open the first door she came to. She stalked through the room, opening all the hiding places she could think of, with Ashley and Seth helping. Ben kept watch in the hall. One room after another, they walked quickly through the floor...

Ashley kept close to Anna, and did his best not to look at what might be considered eye level for them.

Ben sniffed the air, and tried to glance around carefully, hoping that any ghosts wouldn't be evil enough to stick their head down first and just look at him.
"Look at me! I'm Ceiling Ghost, watching you die."
Yep. That he could do without.

They reached the news studio, left set up, one could imagine, in the middle of a broadcast. Inside, there was no one to be found. But a scent of death and several flies suggested something unpleasant was about. Again, the 403 people opened all the hiding holes. Seth- "Dammit, why can't we ever come into a building to find freshly baked cookies? Guess we're doing the city a favor, but it's about time it gave back. Sheesh." There were two sorry looking old corpses behind the desk where the news had once been filmed.

Ash skulks about and looks for anything unusual. "It is a thankless job by nature, Sir...We can only hope to find something with continuous searching."

Anna- "They weren't dressed like anchors, so good for celebrities, I guess?"
Seth- "That still sucks about Dan Lewis. Oh well."
Anna- "Well, fuck it! Looks like there's no monsters on this floor! Of course, ghosts are better at hiding, so pairs of two and watch out! I'm gonna go back to the offices. You guys can check out the studio and tech rooms. Hey Seth, you with me?"
Seth- "Let's do this! I wish I could see you ollie off another zombie's face."
Anna- "I don't think it's called an ollie on a bike." Seth and Anna's conversation drifted away, leaving Ben and Ashley to look through the studio of the damned. Well, it was a goddamn sight better than the last studio of the damned they were in, at least.

Ben and Ashley were free to look about the studio, the dressing rooms, the control rooms, all that good stuff. They had just done the lightning round tour, making sure there were no zombies around. Now they could go through more slowly, converse, and see about clues. Maybe Gutless Boy's secret diary.

Ben wondered about the dead bodies. Had they worked there, and been killed by someone who might have thought that they were crazy humans? Or had they just wandered in from the streets to get gunned down by people who already knew that a zompocalypse was happening? Ben- "Might as well check out the control room then." Because that would be the place where they'd keep tapes and such that they might want to use during a broadcast. Or so Ben thought anyway. Maybe they just copied tapes to a hard drive so they would be easier to integrate into the newscast?

"Right. I will follow you." He says simply,and moves alongside Ben quietly. He seems to take this whole business very seriously.
