"Oh I see... but couldn't you of just told her to leave?" Daniel was a little confused to be honest, but he Wouldn't question Jasper's methods, after all the other male had worked her longer, had more experience With these things and could probably even teach him a thing or two, so he would listen as he always did to The higher ups.
Stopping halfway, Daniel froze as he was climbing the chair. acting as if he stopped moving he wouldn't of Been seen, yet he dropped the act soon enough, apologizing for his actions as he sat down on the chair.
"S-sorry...I guess I got a little carried away, it must just be all this stress." He answered quietly, "There isn't Anything in particular.... except perhaps our plan? where should we go from here?" he finished.
Jasper cracked his knuckles. "I'd like to start off by meeting all the guests that way we can plan out their punishments accordingly. Have you had a chance to meet any yet besides the two just now?"
I quietly walked down the hallway. Seeing one of the rabid dogs, I cautiously pulled out my claw hand, never taking my eyes off the foam dripping from the canine's mouth.
"No...I haven't met any-..." Stopping short, the masked man corrected his sentence.
"No, I have met one....She was pretty, she had these eyes that looked like oceans, they were really Captivating and reminded me a lot of a book I once read, I think it was about a goddess?.."
Itching his cheek In thought as he said this, he looked to Jasper to see if his information helped the other, Daniel wasn't really good with words, and honestly he was a little nervous that he probably described the Girl in some weird way.
After all, talking wasn't his forte' and he was aware he had very little knowledge of people in general.
Jasper burst out in laughter. He continued to laugh for several long moments before he calmed himself down to talk but even then, he was breathing heavily. "Oh, my... are you falling in love with one of the cattle? Charles will have a field day once he hears of this." Jasper smiled. "Since I'm your friend, I'll help you. We have to go kill her now so she doesn't cause any more trouble for you. Understood?"
Seeing more dogs behind the mutt, I quickly took a blunderbuss out of a holster on my thigh, which was covered up my my uniform. Grinning, I dropped my claw hand, and aimed the gun at the dogs. "Not as good as the cattle, but good enough..." I grumbled, then shot three bullets at the rabid dog, forgetting about the rest of it's pack.
"Love? I've never been in love before... I've read about it in books, it's usually when someone feels very Strongly for another.." He murmured, thinking about it before he added. "I think I love you, and Charles, You both mean a lot to me because you've given me shelter and taught me everything I know since I've Come here..." As if to confirm this, Daniel nodded to himself. however he didn't understand why Jasper Wanted to kill Alice, the girl hadn't done anything wrong to him yet.. then again, if she joined the game. That meant she wanted to be killed, right? at this, he frowned once more.
"How come? I mean if you say so...then we have to but, I just don't understand, why do these people even Come here to be killed, do you know?" Daniel contemplated this, all the while not even questioning Jasper's Laughter fit, the guy was always a little weird so Daniel got used to it.
Jasper sighed, growing impatient with the boy's innocence. "Daniel, these people are hand-picked. They're usually the outcasts in their communities. They already want to die. Most, if not all, have possibly even attempted suicide at one point in another in their crummy lives. We're just giving them one last fun game to remember before they inevitably die. And Alice needs to die because your performance in this game will falter if you keep thinking about her like that. I'm a social person and I know love when I see it. Don't question me."
Hearing a growling behind me, I shot another dog, quickly running back to the kitchen as I was chased. Nearing the door, I shot behind me at the rabid beasts. Jumping into the room, I sat against the door. "D-do not... go near... the dogs..." I gasped, trying to catch my breath. "Quite sorry to intrude so suddenly..."
Why exactly was Koizumi here again? She remembered sneaking into this old mansion hoping to take good pictures, but all that was here so far was this constant creaking throughout the estate. It was actually a little disappointing so far, but if she did take good pictures it would make for a good memory. Besides, she missed that feeling of constantly having to look over her shoulder. She doubted that anything supernatural was here though - and this house was abandoned, so why would there be people here?
Koizumi climbed up the staircase leading up to the second floor, her camera hitting her side with every step. Maybe if she checked each room she'd find something interesting. She opened a closet door nearby the stairs - and found two girls in there.
Mahiru looked like she'd seen a dead body - she was horrified to find real people in there. "Are you two okay? It was really cramped in there and dusty.." she coughed, not trying to frighten them.
Nagito Komaeda
It was really dark. And big. It was worth it though, to get away from that man - Charles, was that his name? When he was called to kill a bunch of teenagers, he was disgusted. He didn't kill teenagers just to kill. He killed so that he could restore hope in the world for people like the ones here. That man had made a mockery of hope - and would rather spread despair to those who prospered. Somehow, hope will prevail in this foul mansion. Somehow.
"I won't question you, Jasper.." Daniel sounded a little defeated, but everything Jasper said was true, so How could he fight that kind of logic? "Still....does that mean we have to kill her now, find her and kill her Now?" that was one question Daniel would at least offer, he felt he needed to know.
Although his stomach still didn't sit right with him, feeling like he was opposed to the idea as he was with Many before. he would still carry out the duty given to him, but having such a mission given to him was a Hard burden to carry, and sometimes, he would always wonder if he could continue living like this.

Elsewhere, humming as he trotted down the dark hallways was none other than Suzuya juuzou, Koko in toll With the boy as he merrily went on his way down the rather unsettling hall, he was trying his best to find Where the others had went, or even some kind of clues laying around like Charles had suggested.
So far his luck was slim, but he at least had found Koko, and that was good enough for him for now, oh! plus He had a life or death gamble, The scene still replaying in his head as he had almost got impaled by so Many iron spikes... ahh, it was simply exciting to think about.
"Yes, the sooner you kill her, the faster you'll feel better about all this. If that doesn't work, then we'll have to throw you in the game too." Jasper laughed at the thought. "I'm sure you don't want that to happen."
Jasper looked over at Teela and grimaced. "Why are you back already? Didn't I tell you to go?"
Mary buried her head in Alice's shoulder and quietly cried. She was a mess, and really didn't do well with being scared. The girl barely noticed the prescence of the new person. She just clung to the other girl and let out her terror in the form of tears.
"What is going on here? Why are we hiding in a closet?" Koizumi frowned, trying to be as gentle and quiet as possible. What was so urgent that she needed to be forced into a closet? Were these girls playing a really serious game of kick the can?
Alice patted the crying girl's shoulder, unsure of how to react. She looked at the newcomer and said, "We're trapped in a game of life or death. Just close the door before they come!"
"Throw me in...?" at this, Daniel's eyes widened, the masked man quickly shaking his in to show that he Didn't want that. though upon noticing Teela, he gave the girl a shy wave.
"T-then...I suppose we will be going?" He looked towards Jasper as one would to their god, he didn't mind Being told what to do, or even ordered around, and he would follow through with anything the superior told Him to, simply because that was how Daniel lived, that was Daniel's entire existence summed up in few Words. loyal to the very end.
.: Suzuya :.
The Albino started back to where he came from, starting down the hall until he reached the familiar Entrance to the cellar, humming even more as he practically bounced down the steps towards the prison Room he knew he would find inside, he was told to meet up here with the others after two hours had passed, At least, that's what Teela said. and it had long been passed two hours. so perhaps even if he was Late, they would still accept that he showed up?
"Ahh...I hate being scolded, Koko~" he whined to the girl following him.
"Please, please, close the doooooor!" Mary sobbed and looked up at the stranger. The girl was certain she probably didn't look her age. She could probably pass as Alice's younger sister or cousin, but that didn't matter right now. She took a deep breath, let go of Alice, and slumped against the wall.
Jasper stood up. "We'll go later. I'll go take care of the canine issue." He walked over to the door that Teela was slumped against. "Move. I have my axe on me. I'll chop 'em to bits."
