Joseph:
Joseph looked between the people within the Room, he watched as the girl called Sakura thought there may be escape using the chimney, she watched as Rachel proffered a hair pin to use as a lock pick, she saw the new comer enter the same way he assumed he and some of the others had, through the trap door.
Looking up at the trapdoor, he noticed it was still open, taking a quick moment to eye over the ground below, he made a dash for it, running, jumping, he jumped upon a somewhat stable table before vaulting at the trapdoor, digging his fingers into the edge as he hung there, calling back down at the others as loudly as he could.
"Quick! Help me here! give me a boost or someth-!", he was cut off as a large, steel toe capped boot came crashing into his face, punting him back to the floor below, looking up in a half dazed state he watched as a possible escape route was cut off, the trapdoor was closed with a thud, and the metallic click of the padlock being put in place was heard.
Reaching to his forehead, a cut was now found there, groaning, Joseph fell unconscious.

He watched as the one called Joseph attempted to make his way to the trapdoor, he watched as he jumped to the edge of the hole, he watched as he brought his boot down upon his face, escape this way isn't possible, he mused. Looking behind him, to his hastily assembled room up in the building's attic, the masked man let out a low, rolling cackle at the thoughts of what was happening below, he reached for the heavy duty padlock, the kind you'd need a power cutter to break without the key, turning back to the trapdoor, he booted it, making it fall over and close, before reaching down and placing the padlock between two iron rings he'd attached to it.
Walking backwards, he turned mid stride, facing a map he had drawn of the Room, running his fingers across it, he drew a X over where the alcove was with the note they had found, one clue out the way, he mumbled, tapping another place, opposite to the alcove with his pencil, his listening devices within the room served him well, that’s where they'd try next, he had something... interesting there.
Something, interesting, indeed.
