Meanwhile, Laura had, in her terror, skidded through the hallways to the disused west wing of the house, plunging through a door into a dust filled room none in her family had ever entered before.

The dust swirled about causing Laura to sneeze; at the same time Robert was pulling a large carving knife from the drawer in the kitchen.

While Laura ended willy nilly like a gray goose flashing intermittent visions of pink in an unused room, the Evan Castle possessed Robert was distracted on his way after her by the linen closet, which is where he found a twisted length of hemp rope  to go with his well-honed carving knife and taking it out, he began to examine it with an eye toward watching his fleeing sister/object of hatred swing from a chandelier, her neck broken and face delightfully pale while her organs lay bloody below her swinging body, but cautious in death as the ghost had been in life, he vowed --so very much like the last time--to test his plan out to ensure the rope would hold the gray-robed-and-pink-pajama-clad lass's weight before actually implementing his nefarious vengeance-inspired scheme of death.

Evan Castle scowled, the smell of cookies in his nose, as he kept struggling forward, knife in his hand, using his borrowed flesh to search for the girl who'd run from him.

Just then, the woman slammed the tray of cookies down onto the counter top, screaming, "BE GONE EVAN CASTLE - this child has been spoken for, and on this day, she shall not be touched."

Her brother started to laugh a disturbing, grating laugh and the face that she loved so very much twisted into the face of a stranger as he taunted with the following words:  "And by what authority do you command this, you old harpy, who is not part of Heaven or Hell, but has been spit out of the mouth of both?"


OOC:  Crap folks.... Sorry.  I was posting for this on my phone, in the break room at work.  Somehow I missed an entire page of posts!  Suddenly she just WAS in the kitchen.  My mistake. Still, let us assume that she was transported.  I will try to avoid such mistakes in the future.
