[Kaede's walking! He's a fair distance from the apartment building right now.] [The field doesn't seem to have ended yet.] * Kaede stops for a second and folds his arms, looking around. "Well, at least it seems to be going a pretty far ways. But I wonder.." He checks out the surroundings outside now that he's got a better look, checking all around. ( Sight roll, +1! ) [Seems to go on forever.] * Kaede blinks and looks back over towards the apartment. [The apartment is there!] * Kaede sighs and looks up at the sky for a moment, drawing up his courage and walking away from it. He's going in a fairly straight line until he can't though. ( Hearing roll, +1! ) [Kaede thinks he heard something! But he's not sure what.] [Sounded like a stone skipping along the ground.] * Kaede stops and looks around. He speaks out curiously. "Hello?" [No response!] * Kaede looks around again, trying to follow his ears towards the sound as best as he can. ( Gimme a body roll! +1! ) [There's suddenly a fierce wind from the direction of the apartment. Kaede is forced to step backwards or fall over.] ( Gimme an unarmed defense (grappling). ) * Kaede puts his hand up to his hair and grits his teeth against the wind, taking a step back. [Kaede feels as though something tried to grab him. But it could just be the wind.] * Kaede steps back even further and tries to get a grip on the situation, almost yelling now. "Hello? Anyone there? If you're there, answer me!" ( Hearing, +2! ) [It's hard to tell because of the wind, but Kaede feels like he heard a whisper.] * Kaede tries again. "Hello?" His voice is getting louder to go over the force of the wind. He tries to push himself through again. Silly masochist. ( Body +1! ) [Kaede is lifted off his feet this time, and is knocked over.] ( Unarmed defense (grappling) +2! ) * Kaede curses and his hand flies up to his glasses just to make sure he keeps them. Kaede is lifted into the air! * Kaede looks around frantically to see if he can spot the source of it or the source of the voice. His eyes seem pretty wide right now. [Kaede can hear the whispers now! "It's one of them.... One of them..."] ( Soul roll! ) * Kaede keeps looking around from side to side. "One of who? Arcana? Who's there?" [Kaede feels like something is being pushed into him, but he resists!] "Let us in! We want to live.... be free.... free...." * Kaede growls and struggles to get free. "Are you crazy? Let me go!" ( Soul roll! ) ( Oh, and unarmed (grappling) +3 ) [Kaede resists! But can't break free!] ( Soul roll! ) * Kaede 's eyes flash a bit as he looks around. "Fine..if you won't let me go peacefully..." He searches for something that he can charge up with Conductive Arc. Anything. Even if it's just his hand conducting electricity. [Kaede sees plenty of things. Unfortunately they're on the ground and he's not. :P] [Kaede's resistance is broken! He feels something happening!] ( Another soul roll! ) * Kaede sees if he can get a hand on his trusty wrench then or something... [Kaede blacks out!] [Kaede wakes up! He can't remember what he was doing.] * Kaede gets up and rubs his head, looking around from side to side, then back towards the apartment. "Hmm. So I'm this far out. That's good to know." * Kaede rubs his head even more and winces, making his way back towards the apartment.
