    Demon Queen isn't exactly out in the open, but she's positioned so she can watch what's going on. Not easy to see, but somebody who's looking could find her. However, there's a good chance they wouldn't find Shrike, who seems to be letting Demon Queen do all the watching.

    We got a few people gathered in front of the place. Nothing happening yet. She moves out of sight and turns to look at Shrike. What do you wanna do from here? Try and sneak in the back?

    Well!

    Wasn't that quite the adventure!

    Freddy waves goodbye as the silly dragon departs before padding toward the demon to see what she's fiddling with!

    When the case is opened it reveals a four checkered paths leading from each corner of the board to a large green piece of glass in the middle. At the sides are two dice and four game pieces shaped like animals. There's also writing on either side of the board.

    'Jumanji! For those who wish to find a way to leave the world behind. Danger and peril lie within and grand adventure to those that win!'

    And on the other side...

    'Adventurers Beware! Do not begin unless you intend to finish. The exciting consequences of the game will only vanish when you reach Jumanji and speak its name.'

    "What's that thing?" the demon-fox inquires. He's never seen a board game before!

    Connie looks over the fox thing. For her part, she looks like a mostly human individual with demon wings and stiletto heels. "Some game in a box." She shrugs. "I've heard of these things. Hey, do you know what a Jumanji is?"

    Freddy still isn't totally clear on what a demon is.

    Or what a demon should look like. The word 'demon' in their language refers to creatures of Discord. Things like himself. Monsters, more or less. As opposed to spiritual beings.

    So to him Connie is just another weird looking humanoid in a city full of weird looking humanoids.

    "I don't know what a Jumanji is,"
    the demon-fox replies with a shrug. "Maybe that's just what the box is called?"

    Seems like as good a guess as any!

    And actually a somewhat accurate one.

    "Huh. Well, you want to try it? Might as well, right? Not sure how you would play it... you do something with the dice, I guess?"

    Nope, Connie has no idea how board games work. It's all just shapes, colors, and words to her.

    "Well, You probably have to put the pieces on the board first. Then roll the dice to decide how far they're going to move," Fredrick reasons. He's played with dice before. Or at least he's seen other people play with them.

    Seems within reason that you would move the little animals a number of squares equal to the number shown on the dice.

    "And it says here that if you roll two of the same number you get to go again."

    Wow! Getting two of the same number sounds like a really good plan!

    "So... maybe you should put the pieces on the board? I don't have any hands at the moment."

    It's true!

    Connie sets out the board, and places the four pieces on the four squares closest to the center. She then holds the dice in her hand. "so... we just choose which beast is ours... and then ignore the other two? I guess that would work."

    He runs for the window as he saw the other heroes entering. Bad for them he made preperations. he draws on on string and with a *pling* noise half of the strings holding the dragon burst and the dragon swing through the entrace. Since we know physics the other strings won't be able to hold the weight and the dragon will fall over, if not stoped.

    Hopefully this will buy him enougth time to escape.

    Well that's a drag. On. Which, funnily enough, is exactly what Mister Marble receives to the face!

    "All good here."
    He says, giving the thumbs up from under his pile of dragon skeleton (at least, I think it's a skeleton? )

    Uuhh...

    Glamdring just tackled him?

    the Drageon snarls in the boy's face, his teeth being shown off pretty prominently.

    "Aaaaah! Get it off me!" the kid wails.

    The vacant lady suddenly snaps to 'attention', or at least, whatever passes for attention in her world. She at least seems to acknowledge the person in front of her, at least, but seems blissfully unaware of the commotion going on behind her.
    "Oh, I'm sorry, I guess I got a little lost in my thoughts for a while. My friends and I have been travelling a long, long way, so I thought I would bring our Pokemon for healing." She says.
    Snapping open her purse, she retrieves two belts, each with six Pokeballs attached to them.
    "These two first, and then mine."

    Two pieces go tumbling back into the tray at the corner of the game whilst the other two slide to opposite edges of the board far away from the middle.

    Fredrick quirks his head at the board curiously.

    "I guess the game knows how to set itself up," the demon fox muses.

    Wow!

    That sure is handy for people who have no idea what they're doing!

    "I guess you just roll the dice now? Maybe someone else can join in later."


    He wrinkles his nose at the board a bit. "Though I can't imagine this will take very long. Only a few turns each and we should be at the middle of the board."

    Spacey woman is being spacey. She's missing out on stroking Becca's ego. The horror! How will Becca know she's awesome?

    Anyway, she has a Drageon to set straight. "Hey! Get off him!" Becca tries to tug at Glamdring. That's not okay!

    Nurse Joey takes the belts and hands them off the the Blissy!

    No doubt the Pogehmanz will be healed up and all better in the near future!

    Meanwhile!

    Glamdring is pulled off the random kid! The random kid who is now crying and not nearly as cocky as he was a few moments prior. Wonder what could have happened to change his mind?

    The rest of the people back off a bit as the Drageon flails his little limbs in Becca's arms! "ghaH quvHa'taH SoH pIn Becca!" the rather angry Pokemon practically hisses. "chaw' jIH nob vam ghobe' quv Say Hegh!"

    "You're crazy!" one person pipes up. "And your weird Eevee is crazy too!"

    Indeed. ph33r her spaceyness!
    Eventually though, something does drift through and attach itself to her brain, and she whirls around, dress twirling.
    "Hey! Just what's going on here!?" She says snappishly.

    Becca holds him fast. "Geez, stop being so crazy." Durned pokemon. Doesn't know how to behave. She turns her head toward Spacey. Probably because of the snappishness. "Nothing. It's fine." She assures her, unconvincingly.

    The spacey woman (who will now be called Caela, in the proud tradition of other Kid Kris characters who never bother to introduce themselves IC but get saddled with OoC names anyway because Kris can no longer be bothered to describe them with adjectives)... does not look very convinced.
    ...
    But is quickly distracted by the pokemon itself.
    "Hey, that's a strange Pokemon. I've never seen one like that before."
    And she's seen many of them. Oooh, so many.

    "This... was a pretty demoralizing outing I'm goin to admit, but I don't want to give up." Giving up is not an option. His parents, his teachers, the star on his chest, he'd be a shame to them all if he gave up so easily. "I'm going to keep being a Superhero, and I think we all should." He seems to direct this at those doubting whether or not to stay. "All super teams have a pretty nasty first outing. We aren't used to each other, so it's natural we could have coordinated a little better." Young Star is just a little ashamed himself. He was the first to try something on his own, and got blasted away because of it.

The narrow space between the two little homes hides her from Dragan's view at this angle, but a moment later she bursts out into someone's backyard, setting their two big dogs to barking at her heels. Though Dragan cannot see her for the moment, the canine's frantic baying makes it easy to figure out which way she went. ((The dogs are mod-able, feel free to write their response to your character's pursuit.))

    The two dogs are jerked short by their chains as she reaches the far side of their yard. She laughs, as though this is fun for her, and heads out into the street.

    Speaking of street... Nothing is preventing Anatolij from getting his bike from where he left it parked in the street.

    As for what Filimon finds... in this, the normal plane, the house is just as Remnant left it, a once peaceful and tidy little home marred in only one room by a grisly crime. If he is capable of seeing the shadow world, who he finds or does not find there is up to C'nor and The Bushranger.
    Dragan follows the barking, which only intensifies when he runs past. Once she's back on the street, he raises his gun again and shoots two more goober rounds, one for each of her feet.
    Anatolij hops onto his bike and drives in the direction of the pursuit, ready to catch up with the fugitive or cut off her escape route.
    Filimon remains in the house, guarding it, although he can't see the shadow world of course.
