Akiko remembered...that's right, they actually had a purpose for being here. Then what were they doing just waiting? She wanted to go do whatever they had to do now!
She shifted in her chair impatiently, getting somewhat used to the uncomfortable clothing, now that she remembered they weren't merely on a vacation. She hummed a song, trying to quell her growing hunger and listening to Mika and Kiante.

As the witch sliced the bread, she threw a few wary glances back and forth between the windows and Zolx. Somehow, what he'd said to her earlier made her feel incredibly...undefinable.
Could he have been serious? Or right?
"During the hours of light, shall we observe what remains?" She asked eventually. She had made sveral sandwhiches as she thought and was currently placing them in front of everyone. Kiante first -and placing his hand on the meal-, followed by Olz -who she'd never actually seen eat-, and finally Akiko.
Then she came to Zolx, with-holding his sandwhich as she whispered something at him with a curious look on his face.

Zolx responded before snatching the sandwich as politely as possible from her.
Olz took the sandwich and much rather happily.

Mika listened quietly as she made tea and poured herself some before sitting at the fire to eat and drink. Assuming what was assumed was in fact true, she'd need to know as much as she could.
Editz!
Very softly, from the castles ballroom, a song began to play on an old piano. It was very...sad. Not just sad though, but painful as well.

Kiante began to eat his sandwich, and then with his mouthful muttered something about wishing they wouldn't have to wait till morning, though he knew they hadn't much other choice.
Then the music began playing. It made him want to clutch his heart in sorrow. He swallowed but didn't take another bite yet, the music was too entrancing.

Akiko smiled when she was given her sandwich and immediately took a bite. When she heard the music though, her smile faded.
It was beautiful, she thought...the music made her feel empty, like she could never make anything that beautiful.
She continued eating her sandwich, but very solemnly.

"Kiante," Mika said quietly. "We'll go inspect it after you eat. You especially will need the strength."
Something about this music player made her uneasy, so much so that she double checked the possesion of her cards. The ink face was behaving strangely, drawing down to the part where her skin touched them, but she kept calm and put the cards back into her pocket.
It was kinda nice not needing to double check her actions all the itme.

As the music came in Olz glanced at Zolx then dropped his sandwich on the table, "Um guys?" He said as he stood up still looking at Zolx.
Zolx was covered in a black smoke, or fire. it was hard to tell. what ever it was it lazily plumed off of him as he vacantly stared out the doorway in the direction the music was coming from.

"What's happening to him?" Mika asked worriedly, setting her cup down haphazardly and splashing some liquid about the tablecloth. She knelt down in front of the smoking teen and tried to look into his eyes.
"Olz! What's going on?"

Kiante snapped out of his trance as he felt something new in the room. He looked, and there was something dark rolling off of Zolx (he could tell it was Zolx only from the talking). "Zolx! What's happening?!"

Olz walked over to his counterpart and looked him over. He reach out and let what ever it was coming off of Zolx past throgh his fingers. "It's hurts." He said as he pulled his hand away slowly. Tears welled up in his eyes. At that point Zolx started for the doorway walking directly into Olz and Mikka. The darkness curled past both of them as he pushed passed.
Zolx fell to the ground and burst into tears. Zolx didn't react, he just left the kitchen and headed for the the ballroom. Between sobs Olz managed, "It- it's just sorrow. Th-that's all it i-i-" He couldn't say anything else. Tears streamed and he just cried.

Akiko stopped eating, thorougly startled, staring wide-eyed at Zolx. She'd never seen him like this before, and she had no idea what to do.
She looked around at the others, trying to think of how to help, but nothing came to her and she ended up just waiting to see how it turned out.

"Perhaps we should find the pianist." Kiante said, walking the same way Zolx had gone, though carefully stepping around him. He stood for a moment in the middle of that room, feeling what was around. Then headed through another doorway, towards the music.
((Whoever posted about the music can say something when Kiante gets there.))

The party went down the corridor to what ended up beinballroom. Large and elaborate and colorful, at least, it would have been colorful if the only source of light hadn't been the blaze in the fire place and the scanty candles located here and there.
And the piano still played, it's once haunting tune now furious and fast.
"Something is not right," Mika said, pulling out the five of penticles and casting a protection spell across the party.
This seemed to trigger the attack of -of all things- the piano. The once tame musical instrument walked on it's back legs while the keyboard turned into a gaping maw guarded by ebony and ivory teeth.

Kiante looked on, noticing a new thing in his 'vision'. A walking piano of darkness. "You have GOT to be kidding me." He said, summoning his Keyblade. He ran towards it, as if to strike, but instead jumped over it and did a flip, striking and leaving him on the other side. "It'll be better to keep it surrounded guys!"
