If the elevator isn't your scene, take the stairs. Watch out for things lurking in the shadows of the floor below... like me.

::Lirie walks in and takes a look around::

(Better... much better... at least, not claustrophobic)

::She skips down the stairs, now and then hopping onto the banister and slides a couple floors down. Finally on the ground she pauses, glancing out onto the front door and the landord's office::

(Are you okay with the thought that taht pervert has a spare key to your apartment? No, and you? Me too. Well lets get it then..)

::She shrugs and takes a deep breath. Spotting a smugde on the wall, she consentrates on it and searching for an outlet to her powers. Suddenly her vision blurs away and she feels herself being lowered. As she finally reaches the floor, she takes few laps around herself, testing her ability to move::

(Not bad... not bad at all. A little bit inclines to the right, but not bad. Just... I feel really woozy... guess it comes with the job)

::She slides under the door and heads over to the offices, hoping the landlord will be in the back room again::

::Lirie slides in, creeping quickly and soundlessly up the stairs::

(Up, up, up and away! Weepy!)

::Reaching her floor, she leaves the stairway and passes into the hallway::

::Luke shuts the door behind him, revealing his nude body as he disrobes the towel.::

(Ok, this better work. If I summon Lenin back inside me, perhaps I will have the wardrobe on as well. Time to come home, Lenin.)

::He rubs his hands together vigorously...and not against that, you sick perverts, concentrating on re-absorbing the mystical energy that makes up Lenin. Luke waits, hoping that once the process is complete, he will be fully clothed.::

::A slamming force hurls into Luke, throwing him against the wall, as the clone returns to his host body - and altogether not exactly very happy about it. Luke's strength is boosted. Unfortunately, the clothes plan didn't work. Still nekkid, honey.::

::Luke grunts a bit as his naked body is hurtled into the wall. He stands up after performing his signature temple rub, remaining erect from the energy boost. He bends over, picking up the towel and wrapping it around his waist.::

(Perhaps I should try that place again.)

::Luke exits the Stairway, heading back to the front door at Chloe's Apartment::

:: Petunius races down the stairs, missing 2 to 3 steps at a time, towards the front entrance::

::Vince decides to be a rebel and walks down the stairs instead of taking the elevator::

::Luke takes the stairs up to the appropriate floor and walks into the Hallway.::

::From the Hallway, Luke runs down the stairs in a hurry, ignoring his mother's warning about sprinting with sharp objects. By dumb luck, Luke manages not to cut himself at all. He opens the door to the first floor to arrive at the Front Entrance.::

::Luke runs up the stairs, skipping every other one. When he is nearly at the top, his athame falls out of his pocket. He bends over to pick it up and steps into the Hallway.::

::Petunius races up the stairway, one hand securely holding his jacket pocket in order to ensure that his arsenal of potions don't fall out and runs into the hallway::

::Andrea takes the stairs two at a time, until a few seconds later she's dragging herself up with the banister, gasping for breath.::

(I really need to get me a copy of Jade Goody's workout video...)

::Finally reaching the correct floor, Andrea bursts into the hallway.::

::Luke walks down the stairs, eventually reaching the base of the steps. He walks out into the The Front Entrance and holds the door open for Andrea yet again.::

::Andrea hurries down the steps after Luke and once again thanks him for his gentleman... ship. She heads out to the Front Entrance with Luke.::

::Petunius runs down two stairs at a time before reaching the bottom. He opens the door and is about to go on to the front entrance when he sees that Vince is waiting for Luke and Andrea to leave. He holds the door ajar and stands patiently::

::Luke carries Chloe up the stairs and walks into the Hallway.::

::Vince walks in. Vince walks up. Vince walks out::

(I can't believe they're still following me...)

::He walks down the stairs and leaves the area, approaching the Front Entrance.::

::Petunius walks down the stairs for what appears to be the very first time, at a leisurely pace. He takes a closer look at the dingy colours of the wall and the dim lights, thus reinforcing in his mind that this really is a shithole that he's living in. Snapping out of the pointless thoughts, he walks out into the front entrace::

::Being the daring rebel he is, Luke walks up the stairs, skipping every other skip as he carries his witch supplies towards the Hallway.::

"God dammit leaving this place takes ages!"

::Taking the stairs three at a time, and stumbling a few times, Andrea reaches ground floor and heads to the front entrance.::

"And we didn't take the elevator why?"

::The mermaid grumbles as she hobbles down the stairs.::

"Did I not just tell you I find walking difficult?"

::Luke holds Ariel, helping her down the stairs a little bit.::

"Think of this as practice. Besides, AP knows what the Landlord's done in that nasty thing."

::He walks down with her, step by step, trying to get to the base of the stairway.::

"Gosh, I'd forgotten about that filthy old swine. Let's get out of here, I'm starving."

::She exits the stairway, and arrives at the front entrance.::

(For what may I ask are you hungry for? Steak? Fish? Fish? Ha! Just shut up, Luke.)

::He follows the mermaid out of the stairway, also walking into the front entrance.::

::Knowing that she made a mistake by leaving so abruptly, Andrea hurries up the stairs and into the hallway.::

::Chloe quickly descends the stairs, trying to follow Andrea's most recent retreat.::

::Justin walks slowly up the stairs, his head still pounding from his in depth interview with the wall. He emerges in the Hallway and waits for Patience.::

::Petunius runs down, taking two stairs at a time and heads towards the front entrance.::

::Patience heads towards the hallway grasping Piper tightly.::

::Justin runs down the stairs headlong, heading for the front entrance.::

::Justin bops down the stairs to the front entrance.::

::Luke frolics down the stairs with Lenin, heading to the front entrance.::

::Paz walks down the staircase, sick of using the elevator. He heads for the front entrance::

::Chloe carefully walks up the stairs, praying the flimsy plastic bags don't tear, knowing they weigh quite a bit. She heads to her apartment to unload the groceries.::

::Patience bounds down the stairs and into the front entrance.::

::Carys reaches the bottom of the stairs and quickly transforms into a bat, flying out to the front entrance::

::Whoosh::

::Dragging her feet, Faith climbs slowly up the stairs, up onto the landing, and goes into her apartment.::
