Kimmy had heard rumors of this mansion in town. Normally she would consider taking Digger with her but tonight she figured it would have been better luck to take her new Umbreon with her. Bright-Eyes was not afraid of anything, holding her head high as she walked alongside Kimmy. The girl swallowed a bit as she looked at the door of the spooky old place in the midddle of the night. After walking inside, she seemed to find a mysterious door after the ballroom. Bright-eyes sniffed at the entrance, looking at Kimmy who placed her hand on the doorknob there was only one way to find out what was on the other side and that was to check for herself.
Kimmy listened to the door creek open, as she entered inside it seemed very dark. She looked to her Umbreon, the yellow rings around her glowing slightly. "I have a bad feeling about this Bright-Eyes, keep a lookout." Kimmy listened as the door behind her shut. She could see almost nothing in front of her, forced to be frozen with fear. She had heard there was some good stuff in here, but she couldn't help but to feel like she was equally as much falling into a trap. At least she had a pokemon with her and she was sure the Umbreon was capable.

You enter a room filled with cobwebs and spider Pokemon. You must navigate the webs to get through the room. There is a long table in the middle of the room. On top of the table, there are three candy bowls, and a sign reading "Choose 1". The bowl on the left has a live Joltik atop it. The bowl in the middle has a creepy hand sticking out of it. The bowl on the right has a cobweb atop. Pick a bowl. Players may pick different bowls or the same one. Roll one die at the end of your post.
The room was flickering now, because of a joltik on top of a candy bowl. Kimmy shivered, she could see two other bowls there with a hand and a cobweb. A sign saying choose one made her swallowed. As Bright-Eyes just moved forward with no fear what so ever. Kimmy could not believe how brave her umbreon was, she was glad she had brought the dark type with her. There was no way Kimmy wanted to touch the bowl with the Joltik, then again the bowl to the right with a cobweb almost seemed too safe for it to be true. However whatever could go wrong? Perhaps there was a switch inside for the next room that she needed to get through.
"Alright Bright-Eyes let's go for that bowl." Kimmy took a few steps forward. Keeping an eye on the little spider pokemon. As her hand went to clear the cobweb Bright-eyes stood defensively and Kimmy didn't know why. Her eyes were trained on the joltik. With the cobwebs cleared away it gave Kimmy a sure chance to reach inside of the bowl. She stuck her hand far into the bowl feeling around for anything just to make sure nothing was inside of the bowl.

The cobweb doesn't seem to provide any resistance; this was probably the easiest bowl. You manage to take one Persim Berry! Onto the next room!

You enter a room which at first appears eerily empty save for an ornate coffin lying in its center. You hear a faint sound from above, and realize the ceiling is littered with sleeping, hanging Golbat. There are three small puzzles attached to the coffin. Make a Dexterity roll so see if you can successfully align all the proper pieces. You only need to solve as many puzzles as there are players.
Kimmy was glad when she pulled out the berry. With a click the next door opened. That was an even more exciting noise, though she had no idea what she had gotten herself into. Bright-eyes looked up at her trainer, looking around before walking forward to lead the way through the door. Kimmy followed, realizing that this room was a lot different from the last one. Looking up she saw the Golbat and covered her mouth to prevent herself from screaming. Upon closer inspection in the middle of the nearly bare room was a Coffin. With what seemed to be a puzzle on it, Kimmy groaned without a noise.
She made an attempt to crawl forward. With Bright-eyes silently jumping onto the Coffin to inspect it a bit more closely herself. The Umbreon sniffed the working, looking over at Kimmy with a bit of concern. Kimmy shook her head, she would have to find a way to do this puzzle without waking up these Golbat's. Though she wasn't sure that this was really one of her strong suits. Carefully she began placing her hands onto the puzzle and moved the pieces around. In the hopes that maybe she would just get lucky and the pieces would just fit together on their own.

The puzzle clicks into a decent-looking place and opens up, revealing an Oran Berry and a Cheri Berry inside. Onto the next room!

What will you do?
You enter a room littered with pumpkins! Small, medium, and large pumpkins cover the floor, without leaving a clear walkway. Several Pumpkaboo watch from the sidelines. Make 3 Dexterity rolls to see if you can navigate through the pumpkins without tripping on the vines and squishing any. The Pumpkaboo will probably forgive you if you can't make it completely, but still be careful.
She managed to connect the puzzle pieces, as she did a sense of relief fell over her. Bright-Eyes let out a happy chirp, jumping down to lead Kimmy through the next door to the right. As Kimmy stepped inside she saw nothing but pumpkins, but among them were the pumpkin pokemon. She thought she would have been afraid but she always thought pumpkaboo's were a really cool pokemon for being a non fighting type. After all Kimmy had Bright-eyes didn't she? As the flexible pokemon already was making her way through the vines Kimmy bit into her lip now again she had to be very quiet.
Two things could happen, disturbing the pokemon and then destroying the pumpkins that were growing on the floor. There was a door on the far end of the hall and all Kimmy wanted to do was get to it. As she lifted her hands she began to make her first steps. Slowly making sure to avoid vines, hoping that she wouldn't end up tripping and falling. As Kimmy took in a deep breath she felt herself shivering. She may have not been afraid but this was a stressful situation. She didn't know if she was going to get through this one, but she most certainly hoped that she would.
You squish two pumpkins. The Pumpkaboo are pretty annoyed, but they forgive you... barely. You're not getting any reward though. Oh well! Onto the next room!
You have entered the room.
What will you do?
You enter a room lit by a single torch in its center. Six candles line the walls. On the left wall is a green, a red, and a purple candle. On the right wall is a yellow, an orange, and a blue. Each candle is also labeled for the colorblind. A backlit plaque reads: "Do not fear the storm. It comes after."
"I'm so sorry" Kimmy whispered to the pumpkaboo's as she went through the next door. She honestly did feel really bad but at least they hadn't attacked her. This room was a lot different from the rest. There were no presents to press and simply colored candles lining the walls. They were labelled underneath with letters and then to the middle was a plaque reading a message. "Do not fear the storm. It comes after." she read out loud as Bright-Eyes came rubbing against her leg. Kimmy took a chance to give the Umbreon a stroke on the head, her fur was a bit calming in this situation.
"I guess we should try solving this right?" Kimmy stepped forward trying to think about what the words meant. Well... a storm displayed certain colors right? Maybe... Purple, she grabbed the candle off the wall. Then looked at the rest, blue. She reached for the blue candle and stopped when she pulled it off of the wall. She didn't want her taking them off to trigger something. Then... red, she grabbed the red candle as Bright-eyes stared at her cautiously. Kimmy took the three candles and placed them right underneath the plaque.
"Colors of a storm, Purple, Blue and Red?" she said, hoping that perhaps it would do something to the plaque. She did not fear the storm, but then again what came after? Desctruction, or perhaps what she did would literally have no effect. She turned to look at the other colors flickering against the walls.
Tl:dr: Kimmy has attempted to grab the purple, blue and the red candles, placing them underneath the plaque Room 4, Trick-or-treat Maze Roll: ZApTF8uyp_

The door lights up red for a moment and buzzes. From out of the shadows, a horde of Lampent and Chandelure come flying in, swirling about and screaming. Everything goes dark, and flames surround you on all sides, closing in. Finally, they stop, and the next moment you are back outside the entrance. You have been ejected.
When the event happened, Kimmy felt like her heart was going to burst out of her chest. She heard the screaming and covered her ears as Bright-Eyes fell into a defensive stance. The Umbreon squishing herself up against her trainer to give a bit of comfort. Kimmy was sure that the world was spinning around her, but once the pokemon seemed to stop a flash of light made her open her eyes. She blinked, rubbing them when she realized that she had been thrown out of the building! It stood towering over her, making its creepy creaking noises as Bright-eyes looked up at Kimmy with a bit of concern.
"Well that didn't last long." Kimmy breathed as she pet Bright-Eyes on the head letting her eyes adjust to the sudden change in light. Part of her wanted to be sad, the other part of her was glad actually. She was easily spooked by such things! She didn't know why she'd even been in there to begin with. She shook her head and turned around. "Let's go, best not bother the pokemon anymore if they don't want to be messed with." after all it could have gone a lot worse and she was glad that it didn't.
