The boys gathered in a grotty grotto of a room, mostly sealed off from the elements save for a gaping hole of a window. They'd hung an assortment of stained sheets to cover it, and the cloth rippled in the cold night air. Cross took an acoustic guitar leaning against the wall, and flopped on a filthy mattress. The other two stood, watching the newcomers warily. Cross waved at them and introduced them as Triangle, and Gabriel.
Cross- "It's a beast alright, livin' in the deepest part of this place. We're too afraid to venture outside, 'cause the wizard says the beast will get us."
Gabriel- "Indeed, it's terrible."
Cross- "The wizard has all kinds of mystical powers, but he's dangerous. Puts a curse on anyone who enters this unholy place. That's why we're trapped here. It's like those old fairy tales."
Gabriel- " 'Cause we're too beautiful and he can't let us go." Triangle- "I heard something about cookies...?"

Ru- "A beast, hm? We could.. go and look around for it. Have you seen it? Have you um, seen any evidence that the Wizard's curse can come true? What sort of powers does he have?" It all sounded weird, but he would have dismissed the vampire stuff as balderdash before being turned too.

"Are ya sure he's not just tricking ya? Seems awful silly to me." "Yeah! it's a little squished but it tastes the same." He offered mascara boy AKA Triangle a cookie.

Triangle nommed that cookie like he hadn't eaten in ten years. Cross idly strummed the guitar. Cross- "I'm not sure I want to test the curse, I mean, we all live in abject terror."
Gabriel- "Big time." Cross- "We could lead you to the beast's lair, but I'm not sure it's a good idea..."
Gabriel- "True, it may be listening to us now, ready to break free and roam these halls."
Gabriel- "You guys are scaring me!"

Still behind August and company, Cameron- Tristan- "Yeah, these dudes are joking." "I dunno, it's pratty scary." "As long as we get to keep looking around, it's cool."

Ru- "Uh, well, can you tell us where it's supposed to be? I know you're scared but we wouldn't mind taking a look for ourselves. And can you fit out of that hole? There might be a curse but you look hungry and cold..." These guys all looked a little too big for his fitted jacket but he considered it for a moment.

"Yeah, I'm with Cam. Can we look around while ya show us the beast? Also we're kinda neighbours. Just thought I'd pop that in there..."

Triangle- "Yes! I'm very hungry and cold--"
Gabriel- "Remember. Beauty."
Triangle- "Ehhhhhhh..." Cross- "We can take you to the threshold, but you must make the final journey alone..." Gabriel- "Or you'll invoke the wizard's curse." Cross- "They're already cursed, duh." Gabriel- "Right."
Triangle- "Eeeehhhh..." Cross stood up, and shuffled into the hall, dragging the ratty guitar behind him. The other two followed at a distance, as he lead the group down a rickety spiral staircase.

Ru- "I know we have to make the last part alone. Still, are you sure you'll be hurt and this guy isn't lying to you? What sort of tricks did he do in front of you anyhow?" He really had to know if they were all very gullible or if this was a vampire den!
Or maybe they were lost LARPers.

August decided to get into the spirit. This was all very inspiring for his next film."Totally cool, Tris. I feel cursed right down to the darkest pit of my soul, like the last bit of kangamite. Oooh! This is so bombaroo!"

Babette walked after them, her shoes tap tap tappy tapping. If there was a beast, it would hear them coming. Maybe, in them, it would recognize kin."These loops are making me dizzy. Around, around, around: we go down, down, down. Welcome to the neighborhood, August. Heh."

Cross- "If-- when you meet the wizard, you'll just know he has powers. It's like, a magical aura. They say he's decades old."
Gabriel- "Centuries. Cross- "--Centuries old." The staircase led to the remains of a grand nave, the pews broken and askew, the stained glass long shattered to fine particles of colorful dust. Ornate columns and swirling filigree climbed the walls, beautiful for all their moldering decay. The lofty ceiling was cracked open in spaces, trickling rain from above fed the mildew and fuzzy grass that sprung up from the tatters of rugs. Soda cans littered the aisle, and Cross kicked one as he led the group toward the altar, now covered in decades of globby melted candlewax. Cross- "So are you an adventuring group or something? Normally we only get vagrants and graffiti artists."
Gabriel- "Fine by me, more food for the beast."
Cross- "Guys, Stoooooooppp..."
