OoC: I said I would have a post up today, and I delivered. Sorry if the quality is bad, I kinda rushed it.

BiC:
Suspicion arose in her mind as the woman looked at the man grinning back at her. What suddenly inspired him to look at her as an equal and go out ahead of him? Thinking quickly she retorted, “You want me to lead? Whatever happened to the man who said that this place was no place for a woman. Instead, how about you show some backbone and lead, Mr. I-think-I’m-so-superior.”

Only silence met her words, the man probably thinking of a counter-argument. With this time she took the chance to look around the foyer. Cobwebs now covered nearly every square foot of the walls and furniture, behind which the wallpaper and pain faded to the point of melding into the dark wooded walls. The floors creaked and groaned as she shifted her weight, anticipating the strange man’s reply.

“I get it,” voiced the man, finally. “You’re too scared to lead, that’s why you want me to do it.” An even bigger grin spread across his face, one that seemed to mock the half-demon.

“I’m not scared. It's just chivalry isn’t dead yet, so you should get off your high horse, and lead!” Aleena replied.

“Right,” said the man, his words saturated with sarcasm. “Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone you were scared of a little old haunted house.”

Letting her anger get the better of her, the young woman used her powers over gravity to throw the man through the door, causing the ancient wood to splinter on impact. She walked up to the broken door, expecting to find the man on the floor, reeling from the attack. However, as she peered through the open hole, she saw naught but a moth-eaten carpet. Looking around the room, he was nowhere to be found. She was kind of glad the man wasn’t there when a slight shiver went down her spine.
