Murder XIX: Trouble in Paradise

[Khan of the Mardu]

Kirari spoke up now. "It seems a few of you are confused. Very well. The outer doors mean nothing. You can only move through the central door amd trapdoor. Alesha is currently in the lead, as she is now on the fourth floor. That is all."

The speakers would go off then.

(OOC Note: You do not have to wait a full turn now! Just keep going!)

---------

Alesha was now on the fourth floor. There was a tube that kept going down where the fifth floor's 2 trapdoor was. She would find two trapdoors, both labeled one and two, but no central door.

@Crow @Mari @Verite @Jeremi @Kaykay @dark @Midnight Maiden @Otto @Gummi Bunnies @Khan of the Mardu @LuckycoolHawk9​

She had only gone down one floor... she needed to hurry up. With a quick breath to ensure she was ready for another quick descent, she rushed to the number 2 trapdoor, wanting to keep her lead.​

 

[Jeremi]

Trapdoor 2 would open, and would close once The Doctor went through.

Turn 1: 2/4

@Jeremi

Maria would receive this on the 78 door:

A man found an old coin and declared that the date on it was 150 B.C. This could not be true. Why?

@Gummi Bunnies​

The Doctor would not waste any time and entered the trapdoor holding on to his hat as he took the leap.

@Yun Lee

 

[dark]

Maria found this riddle:

When you look for something, why is it always in the last place you look?

@Gummi Bunnies

12c had this riddle for Radec:

Lives in winter, dies in summer, and grows with its roots upward. What is it?

@dark

Ernesti would find this riddle:

What goes up and never comes down?

@Crow @Mari​

Radec closed his eyes for a second and then opening them again. He said "An Icicle"

@Yun Lee

 

[Yun Lee]

As only Alesha had gone down, Ernesti and Yamasgiro found their fifth floor riddle for door 1.

What word becomes shorter when you add two letters to it?

@Crow @Mari

Alesha received this riddle:

What has 4 eyes but can't see?

@Khan of the Mardu

The Doctor would find himself on the third floor. There was a one and two trapdoor, but no center door.

@Jeremi

Radec would find the door opened out to the outside, but no stairs or ledges.

Turn 2: 3/4

@dark​

 

[Crow]

As only Alesha had gone down, Ernesti and Yamasgiro found their fifth floor riddle for door 1.

What word becomes shorter when you add two letters to it?

@Crow @Mari

"Assuming that the letters are E and R, short," Ernesti says. "Is it just me or do I have a better grasp on the English language than I usually do?"

@Yun Lee @Mari​

 

[Yun Lee]

Trapdoor 1 would open. However, only one person could go through.

Turn 2: 4/4

Once again, all numbers shifted to the right as Turn 3 began.

@Crow @Mari​

 

[dark]

Radec instead went for Trapdoor 1 this time.

@Yun Lee

 

[Crow]

Trapdoor 1 would open. However, only one person could go through.

Turn 2: 4/4

Once again, all numbers shifted to the right as Turn 3 began.

@Crow @Mari​

Not realising that only one person could enter, Ernesti jumped in. He expected Yamashiro to follow close.

"Hmmm, that's odd. Yamashiro should be close behind me. Oh, hey Alesha."

Ernesti approaches Trapdoor 1.

Rita Hanson

Rita sighed as Maria didn't answer her. She guessed she would keep her envelope as she never did get a definitve answer. She had wasted two turns and approached the central door as she opened her envelope.

@dark​

Well... that certainly didn't make much sense to Alesha. If one had the eyes to see, how could they not perceive the world? Only the spirit of her grandmother guiding her once again, her aged wisdom pressing the khan's fingers to the keyboard, would hopefully give the correct answer that would let her past; Mississippi.​

 

[Yun Lee]

Radec received this riddle:

A house has 4 walls. All of the walls are facing south, and a bear is circling the house. What color is the bear?

@dark

Ernesti would need to wait a moment, as his screen was on standby.

(Moving into a room and receiving a riddle in two seperate posts, please.)

@Crow

Rita received this riddle:

What is so delicate that saying its name breaks it?

@LuckycoolHawk9

The door would open, allowing Alesha through.

Turn 3: 2/4

​

She released a sigh of relief, her grandmother's spirit leaving her once again with a comforting victory. Climbing down into the tube, she quickly began to descend to the next level.​

Rita Hanson

"Silence is the answer. Lord knows working with Phil Connors have taught me that." Rita was almost positive her answer was right.

The Helghast sighed again and said "The answer is white."


@Yun Lee

 

[Yun Lee]

Alesha was now on the second floor. Once again, no central door, but trapdoors with one and two on them.

@Khan of the Mardu

Rita would be right, but the central door would open to a wall.

Turn 3: 3/4

@LuckycoolHawk9

Radec would be right, and the trapdoor would open, revealing a ladder.

Turn 3: 4/4

Once again, the outer doors changed symbols to the right as turn 4 began.

@dark​

Radec took the ladder when the trapdoor opened and began to climb to wherever it lead him.

@Yun Lee

 

[Yun Lee]

Radec would find himself on the fourth floor, with no central door, but two trapdoors, labelled one and two.

"...let me see..." Yumeko walked to the trapdoor labelled 2 and received her puzzle. Now to just solve it...

@dark​

Second floor... which meant that she was just one away from the lily. With a smirk, the khan headed for the trapdoor labelled 1, ready to climb down and begin her ascent to the sky once again.​

 

[LuckycoolHawk9]

Rita Hanson

Rita paused, going to the trapdoor labelled 2. Maybe it would be more helpful to going down.

Radec turned his eyes to Trapdoor number 2
