I double take at the window, then look opposite the reflection in an attempt to locate the source of the mysterious man. "Hey.. I think I just saw someone. Be on your guard everyone..." Warily walking further into the office, I scan the desk and note the floor under. "Does anybody notice something odd about the area around the desk? I can't quite put my finger on it.."

Anthony looks around to see if there are stairs in the saloon "Alyss, Catarina, why don't you two check the kegs to see if they have water in them. Sylvia, Tyson, you two and I will look for clothes and beds if that is alright with both of you."

"I don't mind." Alyss goes to inspect one of the kegs and thinks its odd that they don't have the same amount of dust as everything else in the room.

"Hey.. I think I just saw someone. Be on your guard everyone..."

Al's alarm bells immediately go up at Luke's words, though he didn't see the person Luke was mentioning. Still, in his experience if you saw a person there was probably a person there, and if you only saw them for a moment then something bad was probably about to happen. He'd had tours in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan, and never taking a moment's sighting for granted had been lesson number one. "Where did you see them? For how long? Could you make out any features or details?" His words are barked in the crisp, authoritative tone of a soldier on alert, making it clear that he's serious. "Stay away from the desk!" he shouts suddenly, noticing Luke moving towards it. "You just spotted a man, for all we know he was triggering a time bomb under the desk!"

Catarina along with Alyss goes and inspects the kegs there, she wipes the sweat from her forehead, "Hey Alyss, these seem to look less old then everything else dont you think?"

Taking a quick look around, a few kegs immediately catch Sylvia's attention. Her head tilts sideways just a little, eyebrows furrowing as she begins to walk closer to them, concentrating on the difference in the dust. She swipes her finger across a small section of one, now completely oblivious to the people she had walked in with. She inspects the difference thoroughly and tries her best to use her intelligence to figure out just why it would be different. It didn't make sense... And Sylvia was finding that she really enjoyed trying to solve the mystery of it.

Quickly stepping away from the desk I reply, "I saw him for a split second, I'm not even sure I did see him. It was in the reflection in the window.. As crazy as that sounds, because nobody is in here. He was a man wearing an old fashioned ten-gallon hat. That's all I could make out."

"Never assume anything. If you saw a man in the window, or the reflection of a man in the window, then all you know for sure is that there is a man and you saw him." Al glances furtively back at the window and then passes his gaze over the two doors on either side of the room. "Let me check under the desk. You two both stay back, and check those doors, see if they're locked. DO NOT go into either room yet! It could be a trap." He steps slowly and cautiously towards the desk, kneeling near the shifted dust and beginning to examine it, softly rapping his knuckles against the area and pressing lightly as well as examining it with a careful eye, attempting to discern if it's hollow, how to open it, and anything else he might glean while remaining cautious of it's contents.

Words steadily flowing into her consciousness from what she guessed about a minute or two ago, she blinks out of her deep concentration and turns her head back to Anthony.

"Oh uhm..." she starts, glancing back at the kegs and then to the two girls now standing next to her. 'Well, I guess we only need so many people in one area.'
"Sure," she replies, reluctantly moving away from the mystery and going to wandering the rest of the place. "Though I'm not sure why there would be anything useful in this place," she mumbles. "You'd probably find more in a church."

She took in the old western surroundings once more. "Then again, maybe not. Where would you really find anything?" she thought, and then started taking a closer look around.

Tyson agrees with Sylvia. "Yeah man, I think she's right. Why don't we go look there?"
