*Djanni trembles with the effort to control the Fire as it rages through her. Rigid on the outside, her inner self seethes and roils in agony. For staring down into Daustua's grey-blue eyes she sees...herself. Twisted and transformed by the rage of the Fire, pulled this way and that by its pernicious whims. She and Daustua, one and the same. Daustua's weeping and grief penetrate her mind at last, and the Fire burns bright, turning her own gray eyes to embers*
"ENOUGH!" Djanni howls. She grips Daustua by the shoulders and whirls her around to look Djanni in the eyes. "You and I - we're the same! I too have a power that burns inside me, twisting and shaping me to its will. It changed my face and my body, but my heart is my own! What we are may be different, but it does not affect who we are. Never forget that. Even now, I force it to obey my will - as long as I hold on to my heart, I will prevail. You can do the same."

Daustua let out a startled yelp as she was whipped around by Djanni. Her wide grey-blue eyes stared deeply into fiery pits that now composed Djanni’s. It scared her, oh did it scare her. But the message was not lost. “Y-yes, I …I will try.”
Daustua’s hand slowly reaches for her chest. Was it true? Did she even still have a heart? Daustua didn’t know the answers to these questions and decided it was best left to faith.

*Djanni's expression softens and she releases Dautsua gently, the embers of her eyes slowly fading.*
"Remember Dautsua - even if there may not actually be a heart beating in your chest, as long as the soul of that heart remains, you will be all right."

Daustua wipes her eyes and nod at Djanni. She spoke no further words. It was enough comfort to know that there was one other person in the surreal world that cared about her feelings. And more importantly, she was not alone in her burden.

Perrian ran through the notes again. "Seems like #125 and #150 are two people we don't want to mess around with." Perrian whispered to himself as he continued to read the papers.
((Is there another door in this room? Just curious?))

Delgara looks at Perrian for a moment before commenting “I think that I am #125. Remember I said earlier that I was a security guard for Mecha.” He looks down at his hands and forms a fist. He does not look pleased. The girl with the monsters moves around the room and just seems to be sniffing around and exploring the place.
(yes there is another door on the other side of this room, I mentioned it in my last post.)

*Djanni turns and goes to the child and monsters to make sure they are all right, approaching them cautiously as is appropriate. She pauses by Perrian on her way to the child and says:*
"Perrian...I have no wish to upset you, but my analysis of this place is that it is unsuitable as a home for your goddess. I suggest we conclude our business here as quickly as possible; number 150 sounds quite dangerous."

Perrian sighed and nodded. "I agree, too. Lets get out of this place and try to find a different place for Shiva's home." He said and turned to Delgara. "Sorry for them doing that to you and sorry if I insulted you." He said then looked at Shiva who was on his shoulder. "Guess we'll need to find you a different place. Sorry Shiva." He said and sighed. "Lets find the quickest way out! We're going to not stop too long at any point unless it is necessary!" Perrian called out to the group. "We only have two ways to go, forward or backwards! We know going backwards is a long walk so we could either gamble that forwards is a short walk or we could go backwards to where we know it is safe. I vote that we continue walking forwards, but what are your opinions?"

Just to be sure are you going to continue forward threw the only door you have not explored or are you going to leave threw an exit that you already know is there?

((I think we might go forward, but I want the opinion of the other people, too. True, there is not monsters backwards, but we know nothing else is back there. I'll edit my post now. I forgot that we could also go backwards to the exit we know is there. sweatdrop ))

((Ok. My character wants to go forward, too. But remember, after we get out of here, unless this becomes a suitable place, we'll be still looking for a place for the house or giving up the main mission for Shiva.))

As you approached the door you see a piece paper was stuck to it most of the paper looks like it was torn but a little still remains. The little bit that is still there says little of importance other then; experiment #150 ZA2200. You can push the door open easily and find that it appears to be damaged. It looks like something was thrown into it and caused a large dent on the inside of the door that prevents it from closeting. Past is a long narrow staircase.

Perrian sighed. "Seems like our experiment #150 has escaped and was kept in here. There is a narrow staircase, so we'll need to go in single file. Tobar, you will go first. Following you will be Djanni. Then will be I. Then will be Delgara and the girl with the creatures. Then behind them will be Daustua protecting us from the behind. Is everyone ok with this idea on how we go up the steps?" Perrian said. "And beware. If we do run into this experiment #150 we are facing something harder then we faced before. By the condition of this door, I can tell that whatever we'll face is very powerful and might still be on a rage. Be careful group. We might be getting closer to danger."
