Amaryllis had just begun contemplating the likelihood that she could jump from one of the cages and land on the table without knocking everything off or getting cut, pricked or otherwise mutilated when an eevee appeared in the doorway. That managed to bring her out of her shocked state and she nodded "Yes, I'm alright. I was just trying to get onto that table to investigate but the stool fell over when I got on top of it." Ammy walked forward, headed towards the eevee who, didn't smell like an eevee at all. "I'm Amaryllis, who are you?"
((Yay! Someone for Ammy to hang out with lolz))

Lucine glanced up at the table, trying to figure out why anyone would want to get up there. Of course, she couldn’t see the needles and other torturous tools, but she could smell them; it wasn’t a place she wanted to explore, that was for sure. Still, she supposed that they might find something up there… what if they missed the tool they needed to escape just because she was a scardy-skitty?
“I’m Lucine. It’s nice to meet you, Amaryllis. Hmm… we could get a bigger pokémon in here. Maybe they could lift one of us up there. It’s not that high. I know a marowak who might be willing to help.” You know, provided that they promised not to touch her bone. Ever. “Did you see anything interesting up there?” She paused and then explained herself. “I mean that would help us find our humans and get out of this place?”

Ammy dipped her head in a courteous greeting "Nice to meet you as well Lucine." At the inquiry posed by her new aquaintance Ammy began to recall everything she had seen on top of the table. "Well... there were needles, and syringes full of some sort of liquid, scalpels, what looked to be a journal, and... Ammy paused as she recalled what she had nearly overlooked on the table. ... and a set of keys!
Suddenly Amaryllis was very excited, the energy sparking slightly from her cheeks. "We have to get up there that might be our way out of here!" she exclaimed as she thought about all the possible uses of those keys. Maybe one of them would even open the area that their human companions were held captive in. This thought sent Ammy down a somewhat painful recollection of her last moments with Raina before they were captured and she sighed, hanging her head and muttered, so quietly it was almost inaudible "I hope we find them soon..."

Daybreak listened to Merlin's speel about ghost Pokemon for about a minute before she got bored. There wasn't anything in the kitchen either. Just some pots, pans, other cooking utensils, and a refrigerator with frozen foods. She might've liked to try some, but she didn't know any fire attacks to cook it, and she didn't want to burn herself with the stove.
A loud crash nearby made her flinch. She muttered something about everyone tearing the place down once every second as she made her way out of the kitchen to see what was going on.
The Espeon had avoided the lab room because of its smell. But her curiousity got the better of her and she peeked inside the room to find a tipped over stool and two Pokemon.

 Dido padded into the kitchen, and immediately wrinkled her nose at the lingering scent of singed fur. That nutcase of an Eevee had been up to something again. The Skitty followed the distinct scent of poffins into the cafeteria and up onto a table. She selected a few dry poffins from the basket – she might as well enhance her beauty while she could – before hopping a few tables over to nibble on them in solitude.

Lucine’s ears went back a little and her tail swished more emphatically. “I don’t like the sound of that,” she murmured. “Syringes full of things? Wouldn’t that imply that someone had been here just a moment ago? They don’t normally leave those full of stuff.” And, while she loved the idea of getting out of here, she did not like the idea of being caught. Especially not by the sort of people who surely operated the Death Room. But the keys… she rather liked that idea. Her ears pricked right back up as she glanced around the room, trying to find anything of use.
“We can try to push the chair back up,” she offered. “But it’ll still be wobbly. Maybe we could get some others to help stabilize it. I wonder how heavily guarded our humans are…” now that was a concern. In the back of her mind, Lucine couldn’t help but worry that something worse was going on here. The pokémon had been left in their pokeballs, virtually unthought of. But the humans… what if the Rockets had more interest in the trainers this time around…? It would be out of character for Team Rocket, buuut…
She shook her head and padded over to the stool, sniffing it daintily. “We’ll need help. There’s no way we could push it back up by ourselves.” Someone else entered, probably attracted by all the crashing. Oh! It was that espeon! Lucine wasn’t especially fond of her, but if she could help, the mewvee was not about to hold the past against her. “Oh, hello! Can you help us? Amaryllis says that there’s a set of keys up there.”

Amaryllis hadn't really thought about the fact that the syringes were full as an omen until Lucine mentioned that they weren't usually left laying around filled for no reason. "Maybe... the rockets were planning to bring us up here..." she said, her voice quiet and thoughtful. "Yes, we'll definately need help to get it back up. Where is everyone else anyway? There aren't that many rooms here."
Just as she finished voicing her question an espeon appeared in the doorway. She looked somewhat familiar. Maybe she had seen her in town while she was out with Raina or something... that didn't really matter, what mattered was if she could help them.

"Keys? Really?" Daybreak gave them both a surprised look. That was awfully careless of the Rockets, to leave them out in the open. Well, everything was pretty much careless of the Rockets so far, with none of them even on this floor.
It made sense now. The chair was knocked over because the Raichu or the pink Eevee tried to climb up onto the table. Its fall was the crash she heard. At least it wasn't an attempt to break out and alert the Rockets.
"Sure. I could try and move them with telekinesis, but things might be messy... unless you still want to use the stool."

With obtaining a new level, all Gwend had managed to do was fall asleep in one of the beds, his ears twitching restlessly. The longer this took, the longer he felt something even worse was going to happen. The rockets had to find them soon.
He didn't care much for what all the other pokemon did at this point, as long as the got out. His gentle snores were replaced my fitted whines as nightmares raged on in his head. He twitched this way and that, kicking his legs. One would come to believe that he was dreaming of running from the rockets.

A shudder ran through Lucine’s body at Amaryllis’ thoughts. Yes. That made sense… perhaps they had been preparing for the arrival of the pokémon and had gotten things all nice and ready. And then left them. That didn’t quite make sense. The way that the raichu had described the situation, it looked as if the scientists had just up and left. Something was wrong. She could feel it. “Amaryllis says she saw keys,” Lucine said.
In the back of her mind, she knew it was fully possible that the raichu hadn’t seen keys at all. Perhaps she had merely seen some shiny reflective object and she thought it was a key. How long did she have to look before everything came crashing down?
“No… I wouldn’t use telekinesis if I were you. We can’t see up there, so we’d have no way of knowing if the thing you are moving is the key or something else entirely.” At least, Lucine’s telekinesis worked like that. Seeing an object made things so much easier. “It was a good idea, but… I don’t want to risk having syringes being rained down on us.”

Amaryllis nodded in confirmation that there were indeed keys up on top of that blasted table. I don't really mind how we get them as long as we can get them, and maybe that journal too, it might help to know just what the rockets were doing so we know what to expect." She turned again to look at the table and rose up on her hind legs as tall as she could manage but she still wasn't tall enough to see on top of the table, much less reach anything on top of it.

"That's why I was a little against it." Daybreak was a little unsettled by the conversation she just walked into but shook it off for now. "Alright. We use the chair. Two of us can keep it steady while someone can climb up and on the table."
She went over to the fallen stool and tried to pick it up. First with her paws and teeth, then with her psychic when that didn't work.
"There." She said when she finally got it up and steady. Though she wondered who was the one light enough to get up there?

“Yes, the journal would be a good idea. I can read most human words.” Well, some, anyway. Most of the really big scientific words would be lost on her, of course. She watched, with no small amount of envy, as Daybreak seemingly effortlessly brought the stool back up. In her true form, Lucine could do such things without blinking, but being an eevee was different… and she had promised to stay good. Alastair had even promised her a poffin! And she dearly wanted that poffin.
“Ok… when Amaryllis jumped up before, it toppled over. Like you said, we need to work together to make sure it’s stable while she jumps up there again.” Or she supposed that she could get up there… but, she figured she was needed on the ground to keep things stable, no matter how curious she was about the things on the table. Putting her paws on the stool, she focused her mind, using her telekinesis to keep the stool in place.

 In the middle of her workout and play, there was a really loud crash in one of the other rooms. Initially, Dakota just let out a small yip and dropped her pillow she had been running around with. However, as she picked up the toy once again, she couldn't help but wonder about the noise.
Her ears stood up tall and she trotted right over to the sound. However, the room that is came from was stinky. The black growlithe's ears sunk slightly as the smelly smell got to her nose. Now Dakota was in a bit of a pickle. She wanted to see what had caused the sound, but she also did not want to get closer to the stinky.
Any others that wanted to enter the "Death room" would have to pass the indecisive puppy Pokemon that was now sitting in front of it with a pillow still in her mouth.

Zyk the zubat had heard the crash from the Death Room, but he did not dare to investigate. There was something about that room that made him want to avoid it at all costs. So instead of hanging around, he went back to the room with the beds.
Looking around at the deserted room, Zyk selected the bed with the fluffiest pillow. He landed on it with a muffled thwump, bounced back up, then settled down into it. It was a very comfortable pillow that he sank right into. Very satisfied and tired out from the stress of constant worry, Zyk fell into a light doze.
