RPG Chasing the Ghost of Time (PG-13+)

[Flo]

Naomi walked over to the boy and sat next to him.
" I like your dolls they're cool." she said smiling.
" Thanks but, they're called marrionetts."
" OH I'm sorry." Looking down at her feet again Naomi shighed.
" My name's Yumil. What's yours?"
" It's Naomi. Nice to meet you Yumil." Naomi said smiling once again. She looked towards the girls that were comfortering the girl that was dead just moments ago. Shaking her head as she felt warmth spread through her body. Using her the water at such a distance had weakened her a bit.

[Okita]

ooc- this is happening at the same time as the conversation between Naomi and Yumil, so feel free to continue that conversation before converging.

Act 3.

Tottering along in the aftermath of things Lilith gave a brief huff of relief as the ranting ghost slowly died down to a sobering wreck.

?Well, all?s well that ends well!? She announced brightly, looking around at the increasingly larger troupe of companions.

?A lot you did to help.? Zeta muttered, looking at her in annoyance, the nonchalant attitude that Lilith exude was beginning to grate on her nerve.

?Well, it would hardly do for me sully my hand now would it?? Lilith responded indignantly. ?Unlike our troupe of excellent companion, I lacked the gift for physical violent, nor am I familiar with witchcraft.?

She raised an eyebrow at Wynne, who was still busy with Ebony confronting the ghost. ?You?re a Vlad Tepes!? Zeta retorted. ?Surely your house has taught you a medicorum of self defence??

?Yes.? Anwsered Lilith. ?They taught me to run very fast and never look back.?

?How very sensible.? Zeta exclaimed in amazement. ?And you actually follow this instruction??

Lilith fidgeted slightly and gave a cute blush. ?Well not always, er that is to say, some of the time... but everyone else was running so I thought I?d follow?? Lilith trailed of and laughed nervously, putting her left hand to the back of her head bashfully.

Zeta gave a long suffering groan and smacked her hand in her face. ?Listen girly, I?ve nothing against you personally so I?m going to give you a VERY good advise which, if you are wise (I have my doubt) you?ll take heed, and if not then you?ll not last the year.?

?Oh please do!? Lilith nodded eagerly. ?I wish to be enlightened.?

Coming closer to the petit blond, Zeta very slowly and very deliberately spoke in a slow and pointed tone, her words emphasized by her finger pointing sharply at Lilith?s nose. ?Grow. Some. Common. Sense.? She said, then left the seeming airhead to her own device.

?How do you grown that?? Whined the petulant girl, following Zeta as she made her way to Ebony and Wynne who by now had transformed back to her human self.

?Is everything okay?? Zeta asked, Ebony nodded slowly, still comforting the distraught and wayward soul, Wynne was about to reply also when she let out a gasp and jumped sharply.

?What?s the matter? Are you hurt?? Zeta asked in alert, seeing Wynne face suddenly contort with pain before paling noticeably.

Ebony turned her head sharply, seeing her friend swoon on the verge of fainting. ?Wynne!? She gasped, a flood of terror welling in her heart.

?Something bit me!? Rasped Wynne, her lips already turning white as she slowly crumpled to the floor.

Suddenly very business like, Lilith politely shoved Zeta aside and barged in next to the sitting girl. ?Where is the bite?? She asked sharply, her voice gaining a steel edge that momentarily stunned the three people that already know her.

?Down.? Replied Wynne weakly. ?Near the ankle.?

?Which leg?? Lilith continued. ?Hurry darling! I must examine the wound.?

?L- left.? Wynne spoke again, barely above a whisper.

?Don?t touch her!? Command Ebony angrily, her voice taking on a hint of panic. ?We need to find a doc-?

?Quite!? Snapped Lilith, her voice so authoritarian that Ebony paused and actually took heed.

?Lift up your skirt to the ankle lovely jewel, I must inspect your wound.? Lilith asked softly.

Wynne complied, her hand trembling slightly in weakness.

?That?s enough sweetness, I?ll take care of things from now.? Lilith soothed gently.

Bending down, the Tepes heir pulled down the stocking and inspected the now apparent puncture wound critically.

?Snake bite.? Muttered the girl in all seriousness, tearing a piece of her black laced gown to bind the leg from above the ankle ?Most likely from an Eyelash Cobra, quite fortunately as their bite will not kill.?

?It won?t?? Asked a concern Ebony, her voice desperately hopeful, she clutched the spectre more tightly.

?Not while I?m around!? Lilith proclaimed arrogantly, producing a small vial from the inner fold of her gown and putting it to Wynne?s lips ?Drink this angel, and in a few minute you will be as good as new.?

Wynne drank the concoction with a grimace, not liking the taste at all.

?Yes I know, tis torture to the tastebud and agony to the soul.? Lilith sighed in sympathy. ?I?m most offended by the fact that I concocted this useful abomination.?

?What is it?? Ebony demanded shakily.

?Antidote.? Replied Lilith. ?Once applied we may take the second step.?

?That is?? Asked Zeta, her interest piqued by this new facet of the supposed airhead.

?We apply this.? She produced another vial. ?To the wounded area, where the toxin in most concentrated.

Without further ado, she poured the content liberally to the bite mark, producing a sharp hissing sound as the acidic compound began their work.

Wynne gasped and clutch Lilith?s hand sharply. ?The pain?s only passing!? Lilith assured. ?It will be gone before you know.?

Biting her lower lips, Wynne nodded, her head suddenly dropping in exhaustion.

?She?ll be fine now!? Lilith announced brightly.

?Are you certain?? Demanded Ebony with an intensity that startled Lilith, raising an eyebrow in silent speculation, Lilith nodded her head. ?Yes, perfectly so, I?ve been a victim of poisons similar to this before, as I?m now well alive and speaking to you, I can assure you that you lovely companion is quite safe.?

?We still need to get her to the infirmary.? Zeta interjected.

?But of course!? Lilith exclaimed ?And she?ll be exhausted for a while yet.? She added innocently. ?Now we must find someone suitable to carry her.?

?I will!? Blurted Ebony without a second?s hesitation and Lilith blinked and look at her critically.

?Are you certain lady Ebony?? She asked teasingly.

Ebony flush from apparent indignation (note: *cough*) and gritted her teeth. ?Of course! You think I can?t do it??

?But of course not!? Lilith giggled while Zeta frowned in speculation. ?You are more than worthy to aid the lady Wynne in her time of distress.?

?What of her?? Zeta asked of Vanessa, still sitting their acting very un-ghostly.

Ebony glanced back at Vanessa worriedly. ?Go!? She whispered with a tender smile. ?She needs you more than I.? Nodding reluctantly, Ebony lifted the very light frame of Wynne to her back.

?Quite a surprise you?ve got up your sleeve, I?ve mistaken you girly.? Zeta complimented.

?Why thank you friend Zeta! You?re most amiable when feeling generous.? Lilith gushed in delight. ?But truly tis not a talent, I simply learn from trial and error!?

?Oh?? Asked Zeta her face showing mild interest.

?Yes quite so.? Continued Lilith ?For you see, mama dislike me quite vehemently, and poison me often in spite, pretending that they are punishment for my misdeeds imagined or not.?

?She poisons you for punishment?? Zeta asked, slightly sick at the idea.

Lilith nodded furiously. ?Yes! The silly cow believes that I?ll eventually recognize the difference between green punch and acetone toxin!? Her chin poked out in indignation ?Which I of course know from the start! The wretched old bat! I can?t help if the acetone tastes better.? There she gave a pointed sniff while Zeta looked on in disbelieve.

?Idiot savant.? Muttered Zeta. ?Yes that must be it, idiot savant.?

Before the conversation could continue however, Ebony drifted close to the pair, Wynne?s light burden on her back. ?I wanted to say thank you.? She announced silently, split between gratitude and slight reluctance. ?If not for you, Wynne might be hurt a lot more.?

?Think nothing of it!? Lilith proclaimed cheerfully. ?Only be my guide and companion in the coming week. This boon I request of you and your lovely damsel.?

Ebony flushed again but nodded silently, a touch of respect in her voice as she said ?You?re not a bad sort Lilith, a touch annoying but much more tolerable in hind sight.?

Lilith blushed, unused to compliment on her personality as such and gave a cute curtesy. ?Tis a pleasure to serve in such a capacity!? She murmured.

Nodding with a smile, Ebony walked on ahead. ?let?s gather with the others and get out of here.? She announced.

?There! There!? Cried Lilith and next to her Zeta gave a groan.

?It?s: Here! Here! You silly little sot!? She cried in exasperation.

?Pah! Same difference!? Shrugged Lilith.

On Ebony?s back, Wynne giggle slightly.

OOC: Whoa... This RPG is going faster than I thought! I'm completely lost...
IC:

[color=navy]After a few hours of silence and comtemplation passed, Selenine finally moved and walked away from the graveyard. However, she was still partiallly in a trance. As she walked, she noticed a shadow behind her. She spun around, looking back--the caped figure she saw before had followed her.
"Who are you?" Selenine asked, "and why are you following me?"
"The first question is not important at this moment, but the second question... I am here because I can help you. Strange things are happening here, and you have no special powers as I recall. You do need protection and I can assist you." At this Selenine stood there, embarrassed. "Huh, I [i]wish[/i] I had some powers... Perhaps I will when I learn my true name."
"Oh, I already know what your true name is," the figure said, "but I will not tell you until you are ready. You must remember that those who know your true name have power over you."

Selenine and the ghost walked on, and eventually they reached a dilapidated house. The lights flickered on and off in the house, and a few people talked and screamed inside. Eventually, a girl walked out; she was carrying someone on her back. A few other girls followed, and all of them started running suddenly. A boy soon followed; he was the only one to notice Selenine. Selenine looked from the boy to the girls and shrugged. To her right, the group of girls had stopped. She could hear them talking for a while. She caught a few phrases, like "where should we go?" and "to the school" and "take Vanessa" and "Yumil will..." as well as other things, but the girls were talking rather rapidly, as if they were in an emergency. Selenine crept closer, and the ghost followed, both as quiet as a still lake. One of the girls noticed Selenine and thought she was stalking them, trying to hurt them, so she frantically told the other girls to flee. This action took Selenine by surprise, and she followed them, staying in the trees to (hopefully) avoid being seen. As the girls started to run, so did Selenine. But apparently, the girls heard her panting and rustling through the trees, so the picked up speed. So did Selenine and the ghost following her. Eventually, a blond-haired girl turned to her and asked, "Why are you following us?" At this point, Yumil ran towards the scene to see what was happening. He was about to go back to the house when Selenine emerged from the trees. Yumil's marionettes jumped out from behind him, thinking Selenine was an intruder. They also noticed the ghost.

There was silence. Yumil's hand was close to the handle of his sword, and his marionettes had their knives out. The girls just stared, and Wynne managed to open her eyes, wondering what Selenine was doing there. Suddenly, someone broke the ice...
"I just came from the graveyard," Selenine said in an unnaturally worried tone. "I just... noticed you and was curious. I do not... wish to harm you..." She felt uncomfortable and stupid saying the last seven words. Behind her, the ghost faintly pointed a large, gray hand at the girls, aparently preparing to strike with something if they attacked Selenine.
"Just to be curious, where are you going...?" Selenine stammered, feeling as if someone else was speaking for her.
"To the hospital, I guess," one of the girls replied.
"Oh by the way I'm Lilith..." one of the girls finally interrupted. Some of the other girls started to introduce themselves as well.
"We don't have time," Zeta interjected. "We must get going."
"...Can I come?" Selenine asked in the same weird tone.
"As long as that ghost doesn't attack us, you can..." Naomi answered. Then the girls walked along, followed by Yumil. Lastly came the ghost, who flew above the group, keeping watch over Selenine. For some reason, she didn't trust any of the members of the group. She kept her hand out, ready if anything should go wrong.[/color]

OOC: Hope I didn't interfere with your original intentions...

[Engel]

[COLOR=Slategray][SIZE=1]
As the contiuned on, Yumil thought of something, something important. Hesitantly, he spoke up,

"Um, It might be better to take her to the boy's school. I-" But Yumil was cut short, as Ebony spoke up.

"Are you crazy?! You may be Ok, but the other boys? They will stomp us!" Cried Ebony in frustration

With a grin, Yumil smiled, " Not while I'm here. I usually am studdery around girls, but I feel comfortable around you guys. Besides, the boy's school has had its sudden murders too, and they think its me."

Wynne spoke up, the marrionetts helping Ebony out when she needed it. "Why do they think its you? You seem harmless enough, besides when you fight, then you just seem really mad."

Yumil's grin faded, his time where they might just kill him coming soon. He decided to speak the truth, as he is a Nobleman, or at least the most uncourrpt noble in the world. "Be- because the murders were with marrionetts. I swear I didn't do it! I just got there, not but yesterday!" They walked in silence, not knowing if he really didn't kill anyone.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[Imp]

[color=indigo]Yumil followed the group, deciding not to speak. Suddenly, Selenine walked up to him.
"You know something?" she asked him. "I was wondering, back at school, I overheard a few girls talking about seeing the same ghost over and over again in their dreams. They say it's a copy of their inner selves, I think... I have one, that caped figure that follows me around... Do you think that perhaps you have one too, and he is causing all those murders? If so, you're completely right about not doing it." At this Yumil thought for a moment. He looked up at the caped figure above the group, then back to Selenine, then in the direction of the boys' school.
"I still think it's a good idea to go to my school," he announced to the group. The girls looked at him, then began talking amongst themselves.
"I think Yumil's right," Selenine added. "He obviously thinks that something--or someone--is there that can help us. I think it's important for us to find out. Besides, we got him and the ghost (she pointed to the caped figure above her) to protect us." After Selenine said this, she muttered something to herself; it was the first time she shouted to a group, and the first time she agreed with anyone. The rest of the girls chatted again, then Ebony spoke to everyone.
"You better be right," she said in a hopeful tone.
"Well, Wynne's fine, so I think they're both right. Still, we must be careful..." Lilith added. A few girls heard this and nodded. Zeta, however, just shook her head, apparently thinking Yumil's idea was crazy. But then again, she felt a feeling of curiosity inside of her that wanted to find out what Yumil's plan was, so she finally agreed.

As the group reached the boys' school, they saw many goblins run out of the school, and they heard someone scream. Selenine and the ghost were having a conversation about something when the ghost heard the scream and darted into the school without warning. Selenine uttered an instinctive "No!" and then shook her head and looked toward the school again. Yumil walked ahead of the group, apparently not caring about what happened. "Don't worry, this happens all the time," he sighed. "Come on in."[/color]

OOC: I won't post much more since I sense much annoyance among you... sorry if I RP'd some characters incorrectly...

[Lilt]

[font=Franklin Gothic Medium][size=2][color=darkorchid][b]OOC: I don't know what everyone else thinks, Neffy, but you haven't been annoying and you've done a fine job with the characters so far,[/b][/color][/size][/font]
[font=Franklin Gothic Medium][size=1][color=darkorchid][/color][/size][/font]
[font=Franklin Gothic Medium][size=1][color=darkorchid][i]As they entered the boy's school and slowly walked down the main hallway, Wynne stared nervously at all of the goblins that had gathered around to watch the strange girls who had come to their school. It had been a long time since any of them had seen a girl, not counting the teachers. Some of the goblins had kind eyes, like Yumil. But the rest...the rest frightened Wynne. She clutched at the back of Ebony's dress. She would have jumped off of her friends back if she wasn't in so much pain. Most of the boys' eyes were filled with cruelty, hate, and a twisted form of joy. Now she knew why the girls called them, "goblins". She also knew how mistaken she was when she had thought Yumil was one of them. Then, several boys from the group pulled out weapons and charged at Yumil and the girls. Wynne closed her eyes. Hoping that Yumil and the others would be able to take care of the attackers.[/i][/color][/size][/font]

[Engel]

[COLOR=Slategray][SIZE=1]
Yumil saw the boys rush at the girls, weapons drawn. Alerted, he pulled out his short sword, and the Marrionetts their 2 guns and knives. Yumil stepped forward, holding the blade out, and a boy with a flintlock pistol tried to shoot at Wynne. Yumil lept forward, and sunk the blade into his stomach, stopping him. Pulling out the blade, the others looked at him with an awed face, but an awful kind of awe...

Yumil grabbed the pistol and gave it to Wynne, as she didn't have a weapon, then turned around to keep the boys away from her, along with the others.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

OOC: I don't know if you want it to be you girls with the bad awed look, your choice.

[Skye]

[color=orange][size=2][font=times new roman]Ebony set down Wynne, and shielded her mentally. ?Yumil! I have her mind protected, but that?s all I can do!? Then she lept at the nearest ?goblin?, and hand lashed out. Jumping back, the boy collapsed to the floor, a hand over his face. Her nails had drawn blood, and he could not see.

The blonde girl dropped to her hands, and lashed out with her feet. ?I thought you said they wouldn?t attack!? Yumil lashed out at another guy. ?I thought they wouldn?t! Somethings wrong!?

OOC: Yur not annoying! ^__^ I?m just as lost as you are, chicka.[/color][/font][/size]

[Lilt]

[i][font=Franklin Gothic Medium][size=1][color=darkorchid]"What should I do? Should I shoot at them? But I've never shot anyone before! but I have to save my friends!" Wynne thought desperately.[/color][/size][/font][/i]
[i][font=Franklin Gothic Medium][size=1][color=darkorchid]She pulled the trigger to the gun that Yumil had handed her and closed her eyes. A scream and a thud told her that she had hit one of the "goblins" that were attacking her. She thought about dropping the gun, but instead started to pull the trigger back again. She stopped when a voice boomed throughout the hallway.[/color][/size][/font][/i]
[font=Franklin Gothic Medium][size=1][color=#9932cc]"That's enough!"[/color][/size][/font]
[i][font=Franklin Gothic Medium][size=1][color=#9932cc]All of the boys that were attacking stopped fighting. Yumil looked down the hallway at the owner of the familiar voice.[/color][/size][/font][/i]
[font=Franklin Gothic Medium][size=1][color=#9932cc]"Headmaster Van!" [i]He said, under his breath.[/i][/color][/size][/font]

[Skye]

[color=orange][size=2][font=times new roman]Ebony froze. She stepped in front of Wynne, blocking the Headmaster?s view. The man was large, and round, but half of it was muscle. He walked forward, angry as a bee in an overturned hive.

The Headmaster looked furious. He roared, ?What in the name of the Seven Hells are these girls doing here?!? When none of them answered, his angry glare swivled to Yumil. ?Yumil! I saw you protecting them!?

Ebony stepped forward. ?Sir, things that are strange have been going on, and even though we are from different schools, we thought it would be safer to be in a group-? The Headmaster looked at her, seemingly surprised that a girl would even talk to him.

Yumil said under his breath to Ebony, ?Ebony! Back down! You guys!?[/color][/font][/size]

[Engel]

[COLOR=Slategray][SIZE=1]
As Yumil made no signs of putting up his weapon, as he was furious and scared at the Headmaster. H. Van stepped forward, and all of the other boys formed a circle around him. He spoke in an angry voice, trembling with every syllable.

"ARE YOU INSANE?! YOU BROUGT GIRLS TO THIS SCHOOL! YOU SHOULDN'T DO THAT, INCASE YOU DIDN"T KNOW!" Headmaster Van roared.

"SHUT UP, YOU GULTTONUS PIG! YOU CAN'T SEE THAT YOUR STUDENTS ARE DYING? Just listen to me, damn it!" Yumil roared back. With an awed face, the headmaster grabbed for his sword, then gave it to Yumil, and gave assorted weapons to the rest of the posse, I guess you could call it.

"I know, but a Three headed purple and green lightning shooting monster is terrorizing the Labyritnth, and half of the school is dead. You may be able to stop it, so take these weapons to aid you." Van said with a sigh.

"Thank you, Headmaster Van. Do you have any snake bite medicine? Wynne got bitten by a snake." Yumil then specifed the snake, still wary of the other guys. Van gulped and handed him a vial with a foul blue liquid, the top fissing in violent eruptions. Yumil thanked him yet again, put the fowl medicne on her leg, and proceeded through the damp opening shown by Van.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

OOC: Hmmm... I guess I tend to exaggerate smetimes...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
[color=navy]As the group walked outside towards the labyrinth, sure enough, there was lightning being shot all over the place, and the sky was filled with dark purple clouds. A silhouette of a monster was seen far away, and there were random flashes of light and explosions appearing around it. As the group walked closer, Selenine recognized something and headed straight for the monster. Sure enough, Selenine's "ghost" was already out there, fighting the monster. Several spells, runes, and energy blasts flew repeatedly from the ghost's hands, but one time, she stopped and summoned something in the air and threw it to Selenine. It was a weird item--it looked like a purple ax without a handle. But as she held it out horizontally, its blade glowed, and a black, foggy dart shot from it, then another one, one after another. Selenine immediately pointed the weapon at the monster, and the other group members appeared and used all their weapons and powers against it. Nobody was harmed at first...

Suddenly, a thunderbolt shot from the monster and struck the ghost, making her eyes (which was all she had for a "body") disappear. All that remained of her was a dark blue cape. Selenine was the first to notice this because the attack made her weapon vanish into thin air. She wandered over to where the ghost was and picked up the cape. Suddenly, dim, mustard-yellow eyes appeared from it. A voice spoke that was the ghost; she said dazedly, "Oh, Katea... You have proven yourself... you may now call me by my name, Mystrica..."

In all the confusion, a boy appeared with a cannonlike gun. He was about five, and he became wide-eyed when he saw Selenine. He stepped back, apparently afraid of her. Selenine managed to hear her footsteps before Mystrica's eyes disappeared again, and she stammered, "...Ty?" She then remembered that her little brother went to this school. She just shook her head and turned back to the fallen ghost. She kept wondering, "Why does she call me by the name 'Katea'? My name's Selenine! But strangely, I think she's referring to me... Eh, whatever." By this time, the others, and Ty as well, were fighting the monster, not noticing that Mystrica was hit.[/color]

[font=Franklin Gothic Medium][size=2][color=darkorchid][b]OOC: I am really, really brain dead right now so forgive this awful post. I just want to move the story on.[/b][/color][/size][/font]
[b][font=Franklin Gothic Medium][/font][/b]
[i][size=1][color=darkorchid]Not knowing what possessed her to do it, Wynne took out the marbles that she had found from the man's hand. They floated from her palm, and started spinning. Then they flew away and started spinning around the monster, shooting arcs of light at it. After the creature was dead, They all saw a strangely dressed woman that they had not noticed before, heading into the entrance of a mausoleum.[/color][/size][/i]
[color=darkorchid][size=1]"Let's follow her guys!"[i] Ebony yelled.[/i][/size][/color]
[color=darkorchid][size=1]"Hold on! Mystrika is hurt!" [i]Selinine said.[/i][/size][/color]
[color=darkorchid][size=1]"Who's Mystrika?" [i]the little boy asked.[/i][/size][/color]

[i][size=1][color=#9932cc][/color][/size][/i]
[size=2][color=#9932cc][b]OOC: Blah. See what I mean? If you guys want to keep fighting the monster for a little bit longer, go ahead.[/b][/color][/size]

[Imp]

OOC: Yeah, I see what you mean... you kill the monster in your post then tell us to continue fighting it... Oh, no offense...
IC:

[color=navy]"Oh, I'm Ty, Selenine's little brother..." the little boy answered. "I can't believe you hang around with her. She's a murderer! She almost killed me!"
Ty thought of something for a moment, then stammered, "I have to leave here now..." He shook with nervousness and ran to the school.
"Eh, don't worry, that boy's a scaredy-cat," Selenine said matter-of-factly. "I spared his life just so that he could live in fear... Hehheh, just look at him..." Her voice trailed off. Then she smiled, proud that she was acting like herself again. She then looked at the dead monster, then at Mystrica. Something came to her. She threw Mystrica's cape in the air, then she put her hands together as if she was praying. Looking up at Mystrica, who appeared as a silhouette behind the full moon, she said something softly, not heard by anyone... something with the name Mystrica called her... Quickly loking down and throwing her arms to her sides, she walked on as if nothing happened, then looked towards the group. She noticed someone missing from it...

"Where's Yumil?" Lilith wondered. There was no sign of him anywhere.
"Eh, he probably went back to the school and had some business to take care of..." Selenine muttered in a way that made it it seem as if she didn't care what happened to him.

Sure enough, Yumil was in the school, talking to one of the teachers there. It sounded as if they were having an argument, almost.

Later, Mystrica hovered in the moonlight, looking all around, surprised at how Selenine revived her. She said to herself, "It means 'black', not 'evil', so I'm not surprised..." Ebony heard what she was saying but didn't have a clue what she meant. She tapped Selenine's shoulder and pointed behind her. As Selenine looked, she saw the good-as-new Mystrica hovering behind the group. They started to walk towards the mausoleum...[/color]
