Alan put his hands in his pockets as he saw Arien walk towards the gates. "need he-" he started to say as he saw Arien stand up holding the rotten looking chain. "Impressive! Don't think I could have done that." he remarked with a chuckle as he saw him kick open the gate behind him.

He walked over to him as he looked past the gate, "Yep. S'go." he remarked as he patted Arien on his back before he sheaded in. "This is gonna sound really childish, but I feel like we are almost like adventurers exploring some long forgotten ruins in search of a treasure." he remarked with a soft chuckle.

Arien's eyes flashed mischeviously, "I told you that my way of life was fun," he purred, drifting to follow at Alan's side. "Boundaries are for other people. Just letting loose and going is where it's at."

Arien walked slightly ahead, nose wrinkling slightly at the rotten smell of the gardens mixed in with the charred wood and dust of the gutted manor. He was slightly uneasy, treading here, and no doubt Varia would disapprove... But really, rules were made to be broken. "And who knows what treasures we may find, hm?" he mused, glancing back over his shoulder as he reached the front door of the manor, broken and hanging on its hinges.

Alan grinned, "You were right it is fun!" he told him as he lightly punched Arien on the shoulder, "thanks Arien...for well bringing me here and all." he remarked with a chuckle. The smell of the garden assulated his nose as he waved a hand in front of his face to disperse it. He felt like he might sneeze but managed to avoid that. "Whatever we find that interests us, let's take. As a memento." he told him with a grin as he looked back at the gate. "Well it will be easier getting out, then getting in."

Arien's eyebrow raised, noting a definite change in Alan from the retiring young man he'd first spied in Gambit's. That was good, he decided. After all, half the fun of this was seeing what the poor, sweet individuals he picked out turned into after long enough in his ... influential presence.

The vampire smirked, "Of course," he said, "Nobody's going to need anything lying around here anyway. It's a dead place..." And how true that was. It had been a place for the dead long before it burned down, that much was certain.

Stepping into the entry hall, not much seemed to change. This portion of the house had suffered the worst in the fire - perhaps where it originated. There was very little left of it, only the charred stone floor that had lain beneath the floorboards and the odd husk of furniture here or there. Rubble was piled at the edge of the room where walls had collapsed inwards, and a rickety-looking staircase led upwards and deeper into the manor.

Arien eyed the staircase, before looking to Alan, "Onwards and upwards," he said, offering the other a steadying hand as he started to make his way up the creaking flight of steps.

Alan nodded, "Yep, exactly!" he agreed with a grin, "If anyone needed anything they would have taken it with them." he said as he looked around. He saw the damage of place they were in the charred floors and burned furniture. It made him wonder what had happened here. Why it had come to this state?

He looked at the once grand staircase, now a shell of it's former self as he looked at Arien. He took a deep breath as he took Ariens' hands and followed him up the staircase, "So...do you have any clue of what happened here?" he asked him curiously. "Besides there being a fire?"

Arien gave Alan a sidelong glance for a brief moment before looking away again. They reached the top of the stairs before he spoke, "A powerful family lived here, once," he said, "But I understand that they had powerful enemies, too, who cleared them out and burned it to the ground."

Close enough to the truth, but vague enough to not be giving anything important away. "But that's Wing City for you," he said with a dry grin, "You're never at the top of the heap for long."

Alan listened to him, "a powerful family...guess people didn't like that..." he muttered, "Or a few...then again some people just don't like people having power." he muttered softly with a shake of his head, "It is the one thing in the world you can count on to get someone angry." he stated with a chuckle. "Shame that they burned the place though..." he whispered as he glanced around the second floor. "Yeah it is Wing City in a nutshell...still I like it here...after all if I never came here I wouldn't have met some of my friends and all." he chuckled as he patted Arien lightly on the shoulder.

Arien nodded his head, taking a step forwards off of the stairs. His eyes cast around the skeleton of the building, frowning faintly. "Looks as though things are worse than I originally thought," he remarked. Almost the entire of the upper floors were totally gone, with only the skeleton of a few stairwells or sections of hallway here and there on the level they were at. An ominous creaking sound caught the vampire's attention.

Quick as a flash, he had stepped backwards and unceremoniously grabbed hold of Alan, jumping from the staircase just as the entire landing and top of the stairs collapsed in a shower of ashen wood.

Arien landed hard on the floor below, but managed to gently set Alan down, flashing an amused glance at him. "I suppose we aren't going upstairs, then," he muttered. "And yes... Wing City is definitely an interesting place. I too like it -- what's life without a bit of danger, hm?"

He turned to look back at the ruins of the manor, "Perhaps we'll find something on the ground floor at least. I can't imagine this family didn't have something curious we might dig out..."

Alan nodded, "Yeah...the fire did a number up here...maybe this is a point of origin?" he asked him as he heard a creaking noise. He frowned at that, "What in the-" he started to say as he was suddenly grabbed by Arien as his eyes widened. Alan felt him and Arien plummet to the ground as he squeezed his eyes shut from the ash in the air. "this is gonna hurt..." he thought to himself, but...surprisingly there was no pain. He looked at Arien as he flashed him a smile. "Y-yeah guess not!" he commented with a laugh. "Without danger? Boring...and a bit plain." he admitted as he rubbed the back of his head. He nodded, "Ground floor is good...but hey would a place this big have a basement storage?" he asked him. "I mean if so some stuff may still be there."

Arien nodded, "Now you're talkin'... Let's find us a basement." The vampire chuckled, leaning into Alan for a moment, holding his face just a few inches away from the other's with a mischievous smirk. "Who knows what we might discover, down there in the dark, hm?"

With a wink, he spun away, eyes scanning through broken walls and over piles of blackened wood and rubble for anything that looked like a stairway down.

Alan grinned, glad that his idea was accepted. He could feel his cheeks heat up as Arien leaned in close to him, just a few inches away from him. He couldn't help but smirk back at him, "Hopefully something good." he remarked with a chuckle, blushing at the wink as he joined the search. "Ya know if I had a secret basement I'd do the old hidden passage thing, ya know phony wall or turning bookcase." he stated with a chuckle. "That would make this place complete!"

It didn't take too long for Arien's keen eyesight to pick out an anomaly in the collapsed manor ruins. Surrounded by remains of what might once have been a bookcase, or might just have been a regular door was a stairwell. Arien looked over to Alan, beckoning him. "Looks like you were right," he called, "A stairway down into the deep dark... Good thing I have a lighter."

The vampire waited for Alan to join him, extending a hand to the other man in order to lead him down onto the steps, flicking the lighter on to give them some small amount of light as they descended into the murky blackness.

"I should really have brought a torch..." he murmured.

Alan grinned, "Wait I was? Ha don't here that often!" he proclaimed as he walked over to him and looked down the stairwell, let's hope these don't break." he chuckled as he took Ariens' hand lightly. "Yeah...and I don't have a flashlight..." he muttered as he squinted in the murky darkness. "I'd suggest burning a stick, but doubt there is any ones that aren't chars." he explained as he carefully followed him.

Arien himself was able to see perfectly fine in the almost non-existent light - another perk of vampirism - but he was sure to guide Alan carefully down the stairs, knowing that he'd be having a hard time seeing.

What was down in the basement took even Arien slightly by surprise. The room had a grim stench to it, of rotten flesh that had had many months to penetrate the entire area with its smell. Tables with odd assortments of alchemical tools - vials and syringes, boiling tubes and burners alongside suspiciously stained scalpels and saws - were positioned to the back of the basement, whilst on the opposite wall chains dangled from hooks embedded in them, clearly intended as restraints. Cages too lined that wall, containing unpleasant looking shapes - the corpses of several small animals, starved to death by the looks of it.

Alan likely wouldn't be able to make out much of the basement, but the light from Arien's lighter would enable him to get the gist of it. Arien whistled, shaking his head. "Well. I wasn't expecting this."

Sanina you naughty girl... he thought with dry amusement.

A scratching sound drew his gaze then towards one of the cages, and he raised an eyebrow to see that one of the creatures was still standing, sensing the pair's presence and biting at its cage. Standing, maybe, but definitely not alive. The zombie capybara that stared soullessly out at them through the darkness was very much dead, missing patches of flesh and both of its eyes.

Arien slipped a comforting arm around his companion, aware of the fact that this scene would be a lot more ... distressing for someone unused to such sights.

Alan looked at what the fire light illuminated as he felt...sick. "...Shit..." he muttered it was all he could muster as he tried not to gag from the smell. He tried to look away, but...he couldn't everywhere he looked was something else...something that was straight out of nightmares. He saw the dead animals as he closed his eyes and drew a shaky breath. He heard the Scratching noise as he turned his head to it squinting his eyes to make out a dim outline. Something about it wasn't...right. He could get that much. He didn't want to stay here for long...not in whatever this place was. He felt an arm wrap around him as he nodded in thanks. "Did...not expect this...don't think I ever would expect whatever this is." he admitted as he waved a hand in front of his face. "Erm...don't think I want anything from this room...think this is all the basement or is there a door somewhere else...hopefully one that doesn't lead to a room like this...." he muttered trying to remain in high spirits.

Arien lifted his free hand to brush through Alan's hair reassuringly, "There's nothing here that can harm us now," he whispered gently, "Whoever this room belonged to is long gone, probably burned to a crisp, if that makes you feel better."

Arien glanced at the room, "We could turn back if you want," he suggested, though with a hint of reluctance in his voice. This room was something Arien might have seen himself owning once upon a time. It was probably a good thing he'd found himself a slightly more healthy hobby.

Alan was glad of the darkness as his hair was ruffled, "In a weird way yeah it kinda does make me feel better...which probably would make me sound like a terrible guy." he admitted with a chuckle. He heard the relutance in Ariens' voice. "...nah, I suggested this place...." he told him with a faint smile, "And well...it'd be wrong for me to just walk out on it, specially after you opened the gate for us...so let's continue on." he stated as he steeled himself, "Though after this I may wanna get plastered."

Arien's eyes flashed with mischief as he moved back to take Alan's hand once more, "That can be arranged," he murmured, starting back down.

Once they were at the bottom of the steps, Arien drifted through the room, peering at this and that - seemingly not bothered by the grimness of the scene. The zombie capybara continued to gnaw at its cage persistently, but he ignored it for the moment.

"Experimental necromancy, if I'm any judge," he suggested, "Though I've no idea what all the chemistry kits are for." Arien wasn't particularly learned as far as the specifics of this thing went. He had his area of expertise, but precious little magical knowledge outside of it.

Alan grinned, "Good..." he commented with a chuckle, as he followed Arien, he tried not to look to closely at anything...not wanting to find out what some lumps were. "So they were trying to be a Doctor Frankenstien?" he asked. He heard the gnawing from the cage as he glanced at it only briefly. "Maybe they are trying to mix Science and Magic together?" he asked him with a tilt of his head.

"Maybe," Arien mused, sauntering over to the far wall to where the chains were suspended. A wicked grin crossed his face, lifting a hand to them.

As Alan approached, he turned, lifting the other hand to grab the other manacle and dangled himself from the wall with a broad grin, "How do I look?" he purred, winking suggestively.

Perhaps somewhat tasteless to make a bondage joke in what was clearly a torture chamber, but Arien obviously wasn't the most sensitive person when it came to that sort of thing.

Alan followed him as he he saw Arien dangle from the wall. He looked well a bit confused before laughing. "Don't think it is your look. Sorry but I'd think you would just break out of the chains." he explained, odd as it was...Arien cracking jokes like that seemed to help at the moment. He walke over to a chain as he touched it briefly, "I know I wouldn't be able to get of this." he said as he slid a hand through before trying to get it out, he had to brace his foot on the wall before he tugged it free a bit. "See I get stuck in it already!" he proclaimed before finally getting his hand free. "Man I'd be the worst escapee..."

Arien grinned, "Only if I wanted to..." he teased, hopping down and laughing at Alan's own efforts. "Here's hoping you never need to then, hm?"

The vampire hooked his arm over Alan's shoulders, "Well, I think that we've seen all there is to see here," he said, "I doubt there's anything in this place that it would be healthy to take away..."

Arien turned to start making his way for the staircase, but as he went, a little idea formed in the back of his head and he grinned. In his next step, his foot caught on a table, and in his stumble, the lighter in his hand went flying, leaving the room totally dark.

"Balls." he said in fake irritation.

Alan chuckled, "You'd probably be the guy in the movie everyone thinks has finally lost just to kick ass again." he remarked, "Yep, I don't know how to pick lock and I don't think they'd be very comfortable. Getting an itch must be really bad in those." he chuckled as he felt him drape his arms over his shoulders. "yeah...'sgo." he remarked as he started to follow him, keeping an eye on the little flame that was there light. He heard Arien stumble as the light went out, "Arien? You okay?" he asked as he took a cautious step forward trying not to bump into anything.

Laughing, Arien turned back to face Alan, "I'm fine," he said, taking a few silent steps to sneak over to him. In the dark, the vampire leaned in and planted a kiss on the other's lips.

Arien took Alan's hands with a grin, green eyes somehow slightly visible still in the dark, "C'mon, let's get you out of here without falling in a cage or anything like that. I can get a new lighter."

Alan heard Ariens' voice as he sighed in relief, "That is good..." he said as he suddenly felt cool lips on his, a slight noise of surprise escaped his lips as he half closed his eyes.When Arien broke it it off he cleared his throat, "W-well that was...well...a surprise, not unliked at all though..." he admitted.

Alan looked at his eyes a smile on his face, "please don' lead me to a cage..." he told him with a chcukle. "I will buy you one, if you buy the booze." he remarked as he held lightly onto Ariens' hand.
