Anya scanned the other faces, her smile widening a bit when she saw Jethrow. The vampire raised an eyebrow and glanced at Icarus, then Benjamin and Sophia, trying to figure out what that was about. 'Well, as you can probably see, I'm trapped in here. Not much fun, I'll tell you that. What year is it?" [OOC:] I dunno... Jethrow has too much Searan in him to react that way. Benjamin might... And then feel incredibly guilty about it...

[OOC:] Hm... I guess we can have Benjamin do it.
Icarus glanced to the vampire as he glanced to everyone else. Weird... Anyways. "Its the 21st century. But we have a problem on our end. Ghosts have been appearing in the mirrors, do you got any ideas?"

[OOC:] Icarus I think has the strongest stomach. Anya frowned. "The 21st century? I didn't realize we counted by centuries now..." She rubbed her head, disconcerted. "As for the ghosts appearing in mirrors, I think I'm aware of this. Ideas... Did anything odd happen today?"

Icarus thought some. "Well actually it's 2011." she added before going back to thinking. Then it hit her. "Jacob... Jacob Trise killed himself last night."

Anya visibly paled and sighed. "Oh... That's sad. Well, someone's death can easily summon something vengeful. Perhaps he accidentally summoned all the spirits resting in the castle in hopes of finding a vengeful one?"

Icarus shrugged some. "No one seems to know him. None of us do and no one else seems to be speaking up about the kid." she said, getting back to her feet. What were they going to do? And what was to come?

Benjamin frowned. "There was a girl who just freaked out when she thought she saw him in a mirror. Maybe we should go find her. Cheerleader... Um... Blond. That's about it. I'd know her if I saw her."

Icarus looked to Benjamin and nodded. "We should go look for her." she said, looking back to the mirror. "We're gonna go look for her. We won't be long."

Anya nodded. Benjamin held out his hand to Sophia, helping her up, While Jethrow was already pulling Icarus up with him. Anya waved a little before saying, 'If you see someone who looks an awful lot like you, Jethrow, say hello from me." The vampire was clearly puzzled, but he promised.

Icarus got up, glancing between Anya and Jethrow before following Sophia and the Spaniard out. Once outside, the bird looked around. "Alright. Me and Jethrow will head to the lower floors. Benjamin, Sophia, you head up. We'll meet back here if one of us find her."

They agreed and split. Benjamin took Sophia's hand reassuringly as he led her upstairs, checking every mirror or window they passed. Finally, he stopped when he caught sight of a shadowy figure in the back of the mirror.
Jethrow, meanwhile, wasn't sure exactly how to go about heading down with Icarus. After all... He was new to this whole shebang. So, he tentatively took her hand and led her down the steps, glancing in mirrors absently. It was a little shocking how many mirrors there were in the older parts of the halls...

Of course the shadow had been chasing them through many mirrors. Finally the spirit came up to the glass, looking at the two. It was a very buxom woman who had fiery red hair. She looked to the Spaniard and French girl. "Hey. Who are you kids?"
Icarus followed behind the vampire, looking into the mirrors. But soon she yanked him to a stop, pointing into a very ornate mirror. "I thought I saw something."

Benjamin was caught off guard by the woman. Very off guard. He swallowed, glanced at Sophia, back at the woman, and back at Sophia. Needless to say, he wasn't quite prepared for the situation at hand. "Um," was his very eloquent response.
Jethrow turned into the mirror and tilted his head. Sure enough, there was a shadowy figure all the way at the back of it. He took a step closer, while keeping Icarus further back as he squinted into the mirror, trying to make out who it was.

The woman waited, but when she didn't get much of an answer, she leaned over, her face becoming so much clearer, as did the fox ears on her head. And her cleavage.The redhead tapped on the glass, staring at the two. "Hey! You two listening? What year is it?" Sophia just didn't have an answer.
Icarus, despite the vampire trying to keep her back, walked up to the mirror. She could hear something and pressed her ear against the glass. The spirit was tied in the back so it was hard to hear. But by the voice he was male, begging deliriously for someone named Kaya. The poor spirit was bound to a wooden cross and blindfolded. And he seemed to be a wolf judging by the ears one could barely make out due to the distance.

Finally, Benjamin glanced away and mumbled, "2011." He swallowed hard, before turning and only meeting the woman's eyes. "Who are you? We've only met one other person in a mirror... Girl named Anya." He squeezed Sophia's hand once, just to make sure the French girl was all right.
Jethrow frowned and leaned in, too, listening as the man in the mirror cried out. He glanced around, wondering if there were any other mirrors--maybe to find this Kaya. There was one right across from them, with the vague image of a woman in it. He walked over to it, and the woman moved closer so he could see her. She had long curly hair, dark brown eyes with concern written all over them, and she was trying to see over Jethrow. "Who is he asking for?" she demanded, causing the vampire to raise his eyebrows in surprise.
