Malodore gave the secretary a steely glance at the crack about arms rotting - it was undead, it was hardly going to get worse than it already was, and bloodmetal didn't rot anyway. Hmph. Anyway, they were all touching the ground and the snow in any case, so why weren't all their legs falling off? Jack, it hated rubbish 'science'...
It shook its head, sharply, refocusing on the task at hand. Time to find this thing... wherever it was. At least it knew what the pendants looked like. Still, despite scrabbling through the snow, it found no sign of the benighted thing. Cracks about rotting aside, it felt a twist of unease in its stomach. Last time, there had been fading... and while it was stronger now, it felt quite certain that wasn't preventative. Just delayed...

She couldn't quiet tell how, maybe the way its tail moved, or its slight slouch but it seemed like the plauge doctor was irritated about something she couldn't quiet guess. Shifting her search through the snow slightly she gave Mal a light elbow to the side. "Hey Doc what's up you seem a bit gloomy?" She said as she kicked another pile of snow over.

"Bad science," Malodore muttered, "and ill tidings. If we are in the Human World, I suspect that odd fading effect will take its toll on us before too long... we have to find this thing. Whatever the cost." It dropped to its hands and knees and kept scraping through the snow methodically. Surely the pendant hadn't gone too far... it had to be here somewhere...

"Bad science?" She paused for a moment, "Guessing you don't buy the whole rotting limbs if you touch anything deal. Then again that fading thing you mentioned isn't happening. If you recall that was location based. When we moved towards the pendant and away from that cematary we faded. Stay there, we were fine." She wasn't a scientist but she wasn't stupid; this trip seemed different to say the least. "Still getting home would be nice. I just got out of class too..."

Edel may have been a little too distracted with the conversation that mostly included “fire” and “melting” and other.....heat-related things to combat the chill. It was rather disconcerting. She was just about to inch away from the group and go play in the snow by herself when the monster attacked.
An ice monster. But not really. It was the school secretary, Arel. And they had just attacked him
On the ghoul's face was mostly just this :
D: See what we've done now
Luckily for them, the frost demon had stirred from being knocked unconscious and was now giving them instructions to look for a pendant. Right.
Edel brushed aside some of the snow around her but found nothing. Her mind was still lingering over what Arel had said – they were in the Human World....and that they would die miserably here. For some reason, other than the fact that there were dismembered hands lying about the field of white, Edel was not too convinced.

OhhhhhhhhHhHHhhhh...
Tomoko made a really pathetic noise. She wanted to go home. She wanted out of the snow, back into her warm room, and she wanted somebody to hug her forever after this was all over with. Following the lead of the other students, she too crouched down to start sifting through the snow to look for the item that Arel had described.
After all, she'd never actually seen it herself.

"I'm not sure... it might also have had something to do with our weakness as first-years." Malodore heaved a sigh. It hated feeling so uncertain, at least when it was a situation where it dared not remove said uncertainty through rigorous testing and trials. If it was here on a formal research mission, that was one thing, but... they were going to get detention for this, weren't they?
Still no pendant. Malodore shoved away a snowdrift crossly, and cast sidelong glances at the younger students. So far, they showed no signs, but..

Once he had determined that there was, in fact, no pendant under that particular pile of snow, Sparrow moved onto the rest, shivering.
"I sincerely hope we do not have to stay here forever..."

"Hey c'mon Doc, don't get so damn gloomy on me. You're the brillant one who has a plan right who can figure out anything." She leaned down patting the plauge doctors back. "Get up like that you're searching too small of an area we won't find nothing poking one tiny spot."

He glanced over his shoulder at Wren, a few feet away, and wondered how she was doing. It seemed as if none of them were doing particularly well when it came to actually finding the pendant.
Sparrow eyed the next snowdrift, then glanced up at the plague doctor he'd spoken with before
"Have you been here?" he asked him curiously. "You speak as if you're familiar with it...?"

"Methodical care is required for adequate search," Malodore said, stubbornly, scooting forward, its wingfeathers chiming against each other. Ugh, it was getting snow up its skirt!
It glanced up at the reaper boil, then nodded seriously. "Indeed. There was a similar incident some time ago, involving a pendant and students being transported to the Human World. It was a very different environment, though..."

"Oh," said Sparrow. "Yes. That sounds rather, er...unusual."
He paused for a moment, then frowned, absently tugging at one of his gloves. "I suppose it wasn't that pleasant; at least, that's what I gather from how you speak."
As he spoke, he pushed aside another pile of snow; a flash of bright blue caught his eye, and Sparrow's gaze widened, his fingers frozen in midair above the little object half-buried in white.
"I found it! Secre - er, Professor, over here!"

Sammy shrugged slightly, moving forward kicking snow aside aimlessly frowning. "We need to cover a lot of space fast or some people will freeze up. Not all of us are already dead and able to handle this crappy weather."
She turned as well to look at the Reaper talking to Mal, "Yep we where fading in and out and reappearing in the same spot if we wandered too far. Though I suggest we don't try that here. We don't know how far you might go and if the pendant will bring you back if you go too far away."
With that she shifted a bit to kick snow in another direction.

"Ah!" Malodore got to its feet and brushed the snow off of itself as best it could, though of course a great deal of the stupid stuff stayed stuck to it. Ugh, it was Christmas Town all over again, only without the JOY. "Well done, ah, I don't believe I caught your name? I am Malodore," it said, again to the reaper boil.

So Jericho's gut feeling was right. They were somewhere in the human world. Nodding to Arel, he glanced to the others as they started searching, then went to do the same. Though, not long after he began, he heard one of the Reapers call out that he had found it.
The guy looked familiar. Oh right, he recalled Riley speaking with him once at their booth during open house. Spearow? Fearow? .. Swallot?
Hm. He couldn't remember. But at least Mal was on the case there.
