Kesshin was not going to respond too the comments of the two, the ones calling for help had the absolute nerve to try and look down on him, so if they are the stooges what exactly would you call the ones who can't solve their own problems? Kesshin was more referring to the man, as he looked like he had no friends but these books, Kesshin would do well to burn them all, after he got his reward of course. As for the lovely woman, it was just a shame that she almost fell under the same category as her little lab rat associate, it was sad to see that he was the kind of type she seemed to like, but they were meant for each other, which is why they could seemed to stand each other. Kesshin stood silent as the only real ordinary looking wizard kept his calm and asked about the mission, Kesshin enjoyed his eagerness to get on with this, though he seemed a bit to nice, at any rate he'd say he could probably get along with this guy better than the mexican jumping bean over there and metalhead. Kesshin and Geno just seemed to have started on the wrong foot if he could remember correctly.

The man's eyes did not avert from his book as he stood in front of the wizards.
"Well it's good to see you've all got something worth remembering. I'm afraid this might be difficult looking at the lot of you, though" he said, ironically not glancing at any of them as his book stood between them. The man turned and walked toward a bookshelf among the others.
"I need you all to fix up this box. It appears to have gotten dinged up a bit" he said as he grabbed a box with one hand underneath and turned back to the group near the entrance.
"I've quelled it for now but I'm afraid it will only rest for a while. If anything it will stay at peace for 3 days total." The box itself was covered in a cloth so no one could see what was underneath. Still, you could easily see the dents in the box underneath the thin layer.
"Don't drop this" he said as he handed it to Lee Jo.
✧ Lee held the box in his two hands and was surprised by its considerable weight. It looked extremely suspicious but he felt it would be fine if he followed the instructions given by the client.
"How long has it be since you made it rest?" he asked with determined eyes.
The man shook his sleeve back so he could check his watch and spoke the time without looking.
"I believe the spell I put on the lock was placed 2 days, 23, hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds ago."
Right as he finished those words, the room darkened and the lighting seemed to focus around the box. Suddenly, the cloth covering the box was pushed off as the box opened. Nothing could be seen from inside the box except blackness. A rapid suction occurred and began pulling the air. Books began falling off the shelves as the room shook. With a sudden burst of suction, Kesshin Gaia, Lee Jo, Toshi Kida, and Geno Waru are sucked into the box. Just as the last person enters the box, it closes shut and lands onto the floor, denting the ground.
----
As the room's lighting returns, the man finally looked away from the book he was reading. The room began to blink in and out rapidly as though it were all digital or virtual. The books and shelves and walls and doors were going in and out rapidly. The man only looked at the box with a stern look on his face.
✧ Lee was dropping rapidly downward before he knew it, his body dropping fast and wildly as he reached out for something to grab. All that he could see were the other wizards falling and he himself going ever downward into the darkness as he felt as though he were falling from some kind of tall building. Of course, Lee Jo having as short of an attention span as he did, stopped everything he was thinking about to look back at a past event.
➟Toshi wasn't really seeing the general goal of the mission, but he didn't feel like speaking up just then. Instead he would let Lee talk a little more on behalf of the group. It wasn't until Lee dropped the mysterious box that Toshi had genuinely responded to anything using facial expressions. His eyes widened as he was falling deeper and deeper into a seemingly bottomless pit. Lee was just a little bit below him as the group continued free falling. "Oh... Look guys, we're falling." his voice was void of sarcasm as he was generally surprised, yet supposedly lacking in emotion as his voice didn't project this. His body was turned completely to Lee, he was still looking up from where the group entered. This would actually be kind of relaxing if I knew we would be landing safely into a tower of soft pillows. There were so many questions, but Toshi couldn't think them up as he was too worried they'd all meet their demise should they hit the surface of this great and long fall. Making his body spin while in midair, he reached for Lee, aiming to grab his arm or hand. He was just in time to hear him talk to himself about how worried he was with the old guy at the library because he dropped the box. With a blank expression, Toshi just stared back regardless of whether or not Lee could make eye contact, and also regardless of the situation. "Are you really worrying about that now? Do you realize we are in some serious danger here?"
➟Toshi was sure to feel the blow of falling for god knows how long down this magical box before slamming into the ground. "Is everyone alright?" He could've sworn he heard something crack as he got up. After a bit of stretching his main focus changed, he was fixated on the door ahead of the group. "Looks like that may be our only exit. We better get a move on then.."
geno felt the falling as he flipped and landed on his feet just as he impacted he stood his form hidden under all the bandages and clothes as his one visible eye looked over at toshi he spoke. " maybe we should think about who is better suited for first entering the door magic wise after all we don't know what is awaiting us or just what type of action may occur" Geno spoke calmly his sheathed katana still rested in his hand as he looked at everyone waiting to hear their thoughts on the subject at hand.
Kesshin listened to them speak, so far he was seeing the clear objective here, either that, or these bookworms weren't giving them the full details on purpose. Before Kesshin could try and piece things together everything started to get crazy, Lee Jo dropped the box apparently after being told not to and Kesshin was being pulled into the box, he tried to resist but the pull was just too strong and he was sucked into darkness. Falling Kesshin regained balance in midair allowing to safely land on the ground by rolling as soon as he saw it and he had hit it. It seemed everyone who was supposed to be on this job had been sucked in as well. Kesshin shook his head at the idiotic comment that came out of Lee Jo's mouth as he looked around, obviously they weren't in Earthland anymore or rather they were but they were just inside a box in Earthland. The others spoke but Kesshin had no response to what they had to say, in all honesty he just wasn't listening, there was a door, they had no place to go, so it was obvious they had to go through that door. Kesshin just walked toward the door as they idly chatted or formed a strategy or whatever they were doing.
✧ Lee turned on his heel once landing and quickly dashed at the door. "Heroes don't need strategies!!!!!!" he cried as he jumped and aimed a kick at the beautifully carved golden door.
"Open Sesame!" he cried as his kick impacted the door. When the dust cleared, Lee landed in front of the door on his rear in pain.
