Darian and Alice quickly moved off of the helipad as Helena pulled away and slowly began to move around the building. Darian walked up to the metal supports holding up the helipad and inspected them carefully. "The metal is in good shape here," he said running his hand over the beams. "Helena, the metal for this looks pretty damn good. There's some surface rust here but no rot. Alice, mind giving this a stress test?" he asked, subtly shifting the weight of his sword.

Alice nodded and walked over to the helipad, holstering her weapon and placing her hand on one of the metal beams. She rapped her knuckles on it twice before pulling her hand back and delivering a quick jab to the steel. A vibration traveled through the steel skeleton of the helipad and a small dent was placed in the steel from her fist. "It's in good shape as far as I can see. You should be able to land on it mom," she stated with a smile.

"Don't land on it just yet though," Darian said as he looked at the stone roof beneath their feet. "Let's make sure the ceiling won't collapse under the weight of an aircraft. Helena, we're gonna be heading down into the building now."

Alice nodded in response as the two made their way to the large steel door set into the block frame. Alice drew her weapon from the holster and checked the chamber before extending the stock and planting it against her shoulder. She pressed her back against the block frame, with her gun at low ready while Darian reached forward and grabbed the handle. He gave the door a hard tug, yanking it open and breaking loose years of rust and corrosion.

Alice swung her rifle in the door, sweeping the interior of the stairwell. "Clear," she declared, stepping into the stariway and proceeding down into the building with Darian going in after her. "There's nothing in here," she said, sensing nothing sizeable within the building.

"I hear skittering," Darian said as they walked down the stairs.

"Small animals," Alice clarified as they stopped at the landing to the top floor. "Lots of them, but nothing large enough to be a Grimm I know of. Mom do you have any objections to us going in and investigating the interior?"
