Omio's eyes peered around. This was odd, indeed. He didn't remember being here... He was lying on the cold floor, his brain obviously not functioning properly from the cold. Luckily, he had a grey sweater with him to keep himself somewhat warm. He blinked as the mansion came into view. "What?" Getting up to his feet, he gathered his poise and walked in through the gate.
Omio tried the front door, knocking at the old wood to see if somebody was home. Silence. "Apparently not." Deciding to find an alternative, he wandered around the house.
"What the heck?" He came across a series of oddly-looking garden gnomes.

((For reference sake, the name is 'Josh'. I'll pretend my name's on there so the fix is smoothened out.))
The lawn gnomes that Josh came across indeed were weird. He went to kick one. 'THUNK'! the thing didn't budge. "Hmm... Whatever." Josh walked past at the side door, standing within view from the library. He was keeping 1 eye on the mansion, and 1 eye in front. He held his ears ready for anything behind him. His right hand was clenched, in case anything hostile came up, it'd get a good deck or 2. his left arm was cold to the bone, it wasn't able to do a thing. His steel toed, steel plated boots were on, so kicking wouldn't be the best option for a means of attack. Josh was almost waiting for something to happen. The skies were still ominous. I don't know where I am. In fact, I don't even know or trust this neighborhood. I've heard that people have died here before, but I have yet to confirm that.

((Keep in mind that you don't know where you are. This "neighborhood" isn't even a neighborhood. There are no other houses... just this mansion.))
The garden gnome stood there, as stiff as a rock. Right when Josh turned his head to look at the mansion, it sprung to life! The dull grey faded away, and vibrantly colored clothes replaced it. Its cheeks were rosy-red and a Sapphire-blue cap sat merrily on it head. The only creepy thing was... that it wouldn't stop smiling. O.o

((Conception is a key role. If you notice, I only ended up in the mansion area after passing out. Naturally, I'll think it's a neighborhood.))
Josh noticed the thing change colour and begin to smile. Automattically thinking by merely instinct, he leaped back about 3 feet. He was thinking that someone was going to attack him.
"Show yourself!" was the demand. Josh thought there was someone hiding themselves within the mansion. He didn't know of the Grim Reaper quite yet, but he had a dejavu of it before this.
Why do I get this feeling as if I'm being hunted by a lot more than just 1 thing...

((You're over-thinking the matter; when you arrived at the mansion, you could not see anything for miles around. You wouldn't have assumed that it was a neighborhood if nothing existed in its vicinity.))
The garden gnome simply smiled, its eerie blue eyes staring at the newcomer. With a quick leap into the air, two more gnomes were summoned, changing from their grey stone color to vibrant, realistic shades. They all grinned creepily. "Ooo..." came out of their mouths.

((Didn't see that anywhere... Location of that context? -_-'))
Josh saw 2 more come up from the ground. "...Fine, if it must be this way..." He went over to one, and tried to pick it up. If he did pick it up, he'd throw it against the other 2 gnomes.

((>.> It's logic. You appeared in front of a looming mansion... why would there be other houses around? If there were, why would everyone enter the creepiest one for a phonecall home?))
The first gnome wore a red vest with a yellow long-sleeved shirt beneath it. Its sapphire-blue cap glowed eerily in the moonlight as it bounced out of Josh's reach, an oddly-pitched giggle coming from its lips.

((Logic can sometimes be violated.))
"!" He noticed the thing bounce. "Grek, guess I'll have to use something to mutilate these gnomes." He also saw in a window that an Organ was leaping around the place, and he saw someone's hand.
"I'm not alone?" Josh tried as hard as he could to get to and bust through the window.

The garden gnomes hopped after him, merrily singing as they went. Their eyes were a shade of bright blue that glistened underneath the full moon. As Josh ran, the little grimlins leapt besides him, tugging at his shirt.

"Aye!" He got furious. "That's it, you little..." ((the ... was just a bunch of cursing I've cut out for your protection.)) He kicked the one on the left hard. It would be hard enough to send a regular person up about 4 feet.

Although the gnomes were fat, chubby critters, they were surprisingly graceful and lithe. The one on Josh's left shimmied out of the way easily, taking the chance to call its friends back. Once when they returned to the red-vested gnome, the three began to dance, humming an eerie tune as their small-toed shoes tapped against the grass.
Almost instantly, the skies darkened and it began to... rain?
No, not quite. The gnomes somehow triggered the sprinklers on. Peachy.

Josh didn't care about the 'rain' - It made the ground slippery enough to do some sliding attacks and better footsweeps. So really, he loved the rain. But, the temperature was something else. "OH, for the name of..." Josh cut himself off to dash around the mansion a few times. He only noticed a garage, and a shed. He knew that getting into windows aren't happening.

The garden gnomes seemed particularly cheerful now that the sprinklers were on. They hopped towards Josh, their creepy smiles still plastered on their faces. Of course, they were only smiling because their mouths had been painted on and had no ability to show any other emotion. As Josh continued to run, they slyly pulled at the hose, tightening the rubber length and creating a cord that he might happen to trip on...

Whisper came out of the garage and saw a guy running from garden gnomes. Okay, first a picture crawling out of it's list, then a motorcycle fighting us, then a flame talking through my mind and now garden gnomes attacking some dude in the garden. I should never have come to this place.

Josh got tripped up by the hose. "Aye!" ...The result was a graceless faceplant, with a chestslide. He ended up right in front of yet another gnome. It was then that he felt that accepting his fate was imminent. He couldn't break them, they knew how to dodge, and they were clever enough to do anything. He could do nothing more, having no tools, having no aid, having... nothing. Whisper was still unnoticed since no squeak or anything came from him. Josh talked out to the open. "Whoever you may be, attacker... You've won." He let his head down, and accepted his death.
...Why did I even live if I had no opportunities? Life was nothing but suffering and now I'm here, facing my fate.
...How truly pathetic of myself.

Whisper, still having the hammer from the battle in the garage in his hand, went to Josh and swinged the hammer to get the gnomes away from Josh, "are you ok?" Whisper asked with a serious face, "this place is very strange, pal, I've seen a guy crawl out of a picture, a motorcycle trying to crush some guy and a flame talking in other people's minds. This place doesn't seem safe either, we should hurry to somewhere safe..." Whisper tried to get the gnomes away by using sword-technics with the hammer, this doesn't work, he thought, I hammer is very different from my sword, I better had taken my sword with me.

Though a blow of the hammer would have normally shattered the garden gnomes into pieces, those pesky, little critters simple dodged out of Whisper's reach. They giggled, a shrill laughter escaping their stone lips. Dancing around in the water, the hopped back and forth continuing to grin creepily. Back and forth they went, their feet and arms flapping through the air.

Josh managed to hop back up to his feet. I'm... alive? But how? "Screw the facts, let's just get off of the yard!" He was hoping to avoid getting crowded, dogpiled on, and probably squashed to death.

"We go inside the house or try to run through the gnomes to the gates and get out of this place?" Whisper asked swining his hammer.

"Inside. They'll use anything in thier power to..." Trip you up with the hose... Wait... "...Nevermind, I've got an idea to round up these pieces of cement. Find one end of the garden hose, and run around them all, I'll do the same - Hopefully, we'll get them wrapped up."
