The two transformed girls blinked with surprise. Not only was Madame
Candida nowhere to be seen, the lobby was totally deserted. No girls, no
customers, no one.
"Freda, are we sure this is the right place?" Astra asked. "I mean, Vincent's messed up his teleporting a couple of times right?"
"Right, so maybe Pronky - seven hells! Maybe Pronklezilch did the same thing."
The two bawdy girls looked around for a bit. They had no actual recollection of Candida's - after all, the whole time they'd actually been here, they'd been a pair of statues - so they had to examine the place. But after spotting several clues, including a stack of invoices (all marked "For Services Rendered"), it became apparent they were indeed in Candida's Bawdy House.
"H-Hello?" Freda called out cautiously. There was no answer. More loudly, she and Astra called out to try and attract anyone's attention, but still to no avail.
"Well, what do we do now?" Astra asked, laying back on one of the plush couches in the lobby. "Do we go looking for whatever happened to all the people here?"
"We could just leave," Fred pointed out, also reclining on one of the lounges. "There's nothing keeping us here."
"I don't know about that," Astra said dubiously. "Pronklezilch made it quite clear this is where he wanted us, and if we leave, he may do something bad to us."
"True, but this is out best shot - there's no one here to stop us from leaving. We have to get out and get back to Vincent's. He needs our help - and so does your mother!"
"I suppose," Astra sighed, stretching luxuriantly. "Or," she added with a smile, "We could just wait here and see if any customers show up."
"Ooh," Freda giggled, "I bet we could pick the best ones! Oh. Uh, but we, uh, don't really want to do that, though - do we?"
"N-No, I guess not," Astra said, sounding worried but not 100% convinced.
