Magical Sailor Fuku

At the appointed time, 10 AM, the participants begin to arrive, each at a different address; the facilities use enchanted geometry to lead the hallways into the same living space. The researchers have reviewed what information they could ethically obtain on each participant, and determined what changes to test on each of them. All of that is already planned. Now is the easy part, for them: The observation. For the participants, the ease of this step is much harder to determine--it is the only one they are actively involved in, after all.

Melissa parked her large, expensive black car outside the address and climbed out, looking weary despite it being so early in the day. She wore a grey jacket and short skirt, with a pink cotton blouse, and dark but sheer tights on her long legs, and a black leather purse hang at her side. The lights of the car flashed as she looked it remotely and tossed the keys into the purse, and made her way inside the building. Her shoulder-length brown curls were loose, and she wore a stylish pair of glasses with thick black frames, and a little make-up, such as red lip gloss and pink eyeshadow.

Nate had arrived at the pre determined time. He had just gotten out of work so he was still wearing his uniform. Walking into the facility was very odd, with the lack of people. Nate continued forward with the papers in a folder. He took them out and checked the address. "Well... this seems to be the place" he said his curiousity getting the better of him as he ventures forward.

Vincent had, fortunatly, gotten an adress not too far from were he lived. He decided to walk, and he arrived maybe fifteen minutes early. He was wearing a black T-shirt with the monty python bunny on it. He was also wearing a pair of loose tan slacks. He walks in with one of his trademark sighs. "Hopefully this won't backfire on me..."

Chris arrives at the place, wearing a plain shirt and jeans. He sighs as he looked at the facility. "Alright... Guess this is the place." He said, looking at the address. He looks around for the entrance and other people. "I guess I shouldn't be surprised that there's nobody else here, privacy and stuff for this test."

The door to enter each address, not hard to find, leads to a small room. The rooms are not completely identical, but pretty close; they're rather nondescript anyway. Each has a door which says "Enter when ready" on some paper that's been taped to the window, and a chute on a wall to one side of the door with a note, similarly taped-on, under it. The note says:
"Changes may remove some items; valuable items will be returned to normal as best possible at the end, but there is a slight risk. If you have something you would rather not take any risk with, please put it in here and it will be returned in the exact same condition you left it at the end."

Vincent looks at the sign. The only thing that he really liked was his shirt... it took a while to find one. He shrugs and takes off his shirt, tossing it down the chute. He then walks in, an emotionless expression on his face.

Nate nods and throws down the chute his wallet and cellphone. The only valuables he took with him. Nate stood before the door and braced himself. With a deep breath he opened the door and entered the room, his heart beating of anticipation.

Melissa stepped into the small room, and squinted at the note on the chute. She bit her bottom lip for a moment and glanced down at her purse. Reaching inside it, she brushed her fingers over her cell phone, her car keys, her diary... but with the state of mind she'd been in recently, nothing seemed important anymore, nothing seemed valuable. She turned away from the chute without putting anything down on it, and walked across to the door, her heels clicking across the floor, her bottom swaying in the tight business skirt. Reaching the handle of the door, she paused, and drew a deep breath before stepping through.

Chris enters the room. He reads the note and proceeds to drop his cellphone into the chute. After checking his pockets for anything else he might have he enters the next room, looking around for any other notes and instructions.

Upon entering the door, each will find themselves in a long hallway, a doorway just visible at the other end. The hallway gives a feeling of being charged with something...something very potent. The hallway's appearance, though, is fairly unremarkable, it's well-lit and there are walls, neatly painted...

The walls of Vincent's hallway are a pure, deep blue.

The walls of Nate's hallway are a dark red, but not the color of blood.

The walls to either side of Melissa are painted in alternating vertical stripes, one a slightly light blue and the other a brighter blue, more like sky-blue. The stripes themselves vary in width, seemingly at random. Despite this, there is symmetry between the left and right.

The walls near Chris are a plain, yet not ugly, brown.

"Huh. Blue. Interesting." Vincent proceeds down the hallway. "Feels weird... but I did sign up for this."

Chris looked around, confused. "Huh... Kinda plain. I Expected something more... weird. Probably shouldn't say that though..." He walks down the hallway slowly.

Nate is somewhat confused. Kind off a waste of space to just have a long strechy corridor. He shrugged and continued forward wondering what he will find through th door at the end. Nate however can't shake off the odd feeling the hallway brings. Its odd, but nothing to demand such attention.

*Zander strolls in, two minutes late on purpose, figuring there would be a large groop in the entry hall waiting to get in. Imagine his surprise when no one was there or in the entry room as well. Seing the notes on the door, he assumes everyone else must have already entered and moves to the first door and forgetting his Kendall reader is in his pocket, he passes bypasses the valubles slot to enter...((sorry, work stuff))
