Eunice stiffed a chuckle after several minutes of silence. "Maybe if we sacrifice a goat, it'll show up," she teased.

"Shush." She opened one eye to glare over at Eunice before resuming the chant. The instructions she read simply said to continue "until contact is made". Fran just assumed it would be plainly obvious if and when that happened. She did feel a slight chill, but at this point she really couldn't be sure if it was just in her head or not. Maybe her wording was too vague? Se decided to try a different approach. "We wish to speak with the spirit of the pyro who died here years ago. If you're here, we'd very much appreciate it if you'd come and answer some of our questions."
Something stirred in the air as she opened her eyes. Once again, Fran wasn't completely sure if she really felt it, but she could definitely sense a strange shift in the atmosphere. Looks like they're finally getting somewhere. The candlelight began flicker rapidly but the flames remained strong. "I think we can ask it questions now." She said, barely above a whisper. She was deciding on the best thing to ask in her mind, but she had a feeling the others might just have something to say first.

"Well." Zacharie's voice was lowered, but to more of a growl than a hush. "Aren't we all supposed to put our hands on the pointer next?" The spy gestured to the Ouija board between them all.

"Well, don't look at us, Doc," The Cajun replied, "Yer th' one that wanted t' talk t' it."

Gordon didn't speak at first, waiting for anyone else who had wished to go first. It didn't seem to be the case however so Gordon decided to perhaps ask something. "Where are you?" He asked in a firm voice. He paused and waited for several seconds for a potential response. "Are you angry at us for being here like this?" He was referencing their set-up. He paused for a longer amount of time for any answers. He kept his eyes closed.

"Oh, r-right..." She gently placed her hands on the pointer and motioned for the others to do the same. Everyone sat in a heavy silence as Gordon asked his question. Fran let out a tiny gasp as she suddenly realized she'd been holding her breath the entire time. The pointer shivered beneath their fingers. Slowly, deliberately, it began to slide across the board. Fran's heart was pounding wildly but she couldn't help but crack a small smile. Something was actually happening. Whether it was truly a ghost or just Zach messing with them remained to be seen, but she felt a jolt of terrified excitement nonetheless.

He wasn’t actually moving the pointer, which made him kind of curious to see where it would go. It was odd, especially since he had his gloves on as usual. Zach had been his usual cool-headed self for the evening, but as soon as the pointer slowly stopped at the ‘YES’ down in the corner, a slight feeling of unease crept into the back of his mind.

Eunice sighed and grabbed hold of the pointer, then bit her lower lip when it made it's way to the "yes."
"Right well... we're th' one's holdin' it so..."

Exhaling a bit sharply as he watched the pointer make it's way to 'Yes', he kept silent and waited for anything else.

"O-oh. Well then..." Something wasn't right. He was always hard to read so there was no way of knowing for sure, but Zacharie certainly didn't look like he had moved it. In fact, he seemed to be just as puzzled as the rest of them. Now she was definitely beginning to feel cold. Voice shaking nearly as much as her hands were, Fran asked another question. "A-are you the one who killed all those people?"

The pointer didn't move, but Zacharie felt a strange chill overcome him. He didn't like it, matter of fact it was very similar to what he felt that one night when the power had went out. "Alright, very funny." He said, acting like he was not affected by the chill at all.

Eunice stood up and stretched her legs with a yawn. "Well, obviously yer spirit here don't know how t' answer that question," she said, "Try not t' sound so convicting; after all, how'd you feel if some people were interrigatin' you?"

"Y-yeah, you're right." Fran's legs were beginning to fall asleep, but she was too tense to move. "Perhaps, you could give us your nam--" Her question was interrupted by a loud crash from the other side of the basement. A terrified squeak escaped Fran's mouth as she instinctively ripped her hands away from the pointer to shield herself. It was nearly impossible to see anything beyond their little circle of candles. "It must be....one of the boxes must have fallen..." She whispered after taking a deep breath to calm herself down.

The crash caused Gordon to shift his attention in its direction. "....." That crash seemed to be far too out of place and suspicious. "Should I go check?" Gordon asked. "It's probably nothing but it can't hurt to check. If something fell over then might as well look into it." He had an uncomfortable feeling about this but ever since they went into the basement, things seemed out of place.

"Let's, I'll go with you." Zacharie let go of the pointer at the same time as the crash, but he got up quickly upon Gordon's suggestion to assess the situation. He nodded to Gordon and picked up a flashlight from the pile of gadgets near by.
