[CENTER][SIZE=1][COLOR=DarkSlateGray][SIZE=1][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue][LEFT][I]Along the coast of Australia, looking out onto the crashing waves of the Pacific Ocean against its rocky shores; is a Mansion named ??Heavenly Home.?? A single man lives within the mansion; in his solitude he's choosen individuals from all over the world to participate in a game which he has prepared for them. He is very wealthy...and wished to fulfill the desires of these poor souls. [/I][/LEFT][/COLOR][/SIZE]

[B]"My master..." [/B]a tall, but timid young man bowed before his master as Dante continued to sit in his chair and look into the flames of the fireplace. "we've received word from all the participants...everything is prepared for them as you requested."

[B]"Thank you."[/B] as Dante quickly motioned with his hand for the slave to leave him as he arose from his chair. Besides the light from the fireplace, the entire master bedroom was in darkness. Keeping his gaze on the flames, the Master of Games grinned as his mind became overwelmed with excitement and anticipation.

Muttering underneath his breath, [B]"let the games begin."[/B]
[/COLOR][/SIZE]
[/CENTER]

[B][SIZE=1]OOC: You all have ur instructions in the adventure inn...have fun :) Let the fun begin. As a reminder, you must have two posts written before you are introduced into the mansion together (use whatever discriptions of the mansion as you'd like). Your first post should be about your daily life leading up to the Master's servants picking you up from your home. Your second should include your introduction to everyone who will arrive and wait outside the mansions main doors before entry. [/SIZE][/B]

[COLOR=Navy]Clyne woke up, this was it. It was only a couple of hours to go until the Master's people came to pick her up to take her to wherever it is they were going. She rolled out of bed and headed straight to the large computer system against one of the bedroom walls. Checking her bank account she was satisfied that the thirty thousand dollars still sat there.

Clyne leaned back in the chair, for the thousandth time she wondered [I]why[/I] she was doing this. After all, she didn't need the money that would come in the end if she won, because she had plenty already. Then she remembered, it said he would grant their greatest desires, and hers was someone to love her, and if he said he could do it, then it's worth a shot.

She got up and walked into the ensuite, taking a nice warm shower to energise her. She took her time getting ready because there wasn't a hurry, she had everything prepared. Clyne slipped into some cream cargo pants and a light blue tank top, her dressing styles were usually simple but still looked great. Though she did know how to dress flashy when the occasion called for it.

She placed a fine silver chain with a [URL=http://img61.imageshack.us/img61/2889/heartpendantuo6.jpg]heart pendant[/URL] around her neck and gently clasped it, sliding it into place. Then she quickly combed her hair, brushed her teeth, and put on some lipgloss. She then packed her toiletries and put them into one of her bags.

She tapped her chin as she looked around the room. Her bags were all at the foot of her bed, packed full of everything she thought she'd need. Clyne walked to her computer, shutting it down for the first time in a few years. Her mini computer sat beside her large one, she picked it up and checked that everything was ok before slipping it into a pocket. It looked like she was ready.

The doorbell rang, she slipped on some stylish joggers and went to answer the door, seeing two men in formalwear standing there.

[B]"We are from the Master, we were told to receive a Clyne Geiger at this address."[/B] the first man said stiffly.

[B]"Yes, I'm Clyne Geiger."[/B] she answered.

[B]"Please follow me to the limousine."[/B] that was the second man this time.

[B]"May you tell me where your bags are?"[/B] the first asked.

[B]"Ah yes, they're in my bedroom. Straight up the hall, make a right, then into the next hall and take a left."[/B] she guided, walking with the second man into the limo.

She slid in as he held the door, closing it when she was comfortable. Clyne touched the leather upholstery, it was nice, and the surface of the limousine was spotless, without smudges or marks anywhere.

She soon saw the men coming out with her large bundle of bags, storing them in the boot. They got into the front and turned back.

[B]"Are you all prepared to leave?"[/B] the driver (which was the second man) asked.

[B]"Yes, ready and waiting."[/B] she smiled.

The man nodded and started the engine, pulling away from her house. Clyne watched it until it was out of sight, then sat back and relaxed as her favourite music played out of the speakers.[/COLOR]

[B]OOC:[/B] A pretty crap post, but that's how we usually start, no?

[kalon]

[COLOR=Indigo][FONT=Book Antiqua][i]Dear Lord, what have I gotten myself into,[/i] thought Alex as he lay back on the couch. Across his chest lay a worn copy of [i]Fahrenheit 451[/i], his favorite book. Reading it had been his best outlet for stress since the ninth grade.

He wondered what mad sickness had caused him to say yes to going to the mansion of an obviously eccentric--and who knew what else?--billionaire. Wait. Billionaire. [i]That's right[/i], Alex remebered, [i]I'm doing it for a few billion dollars. And all the books I could want, maybe a nice quiet house somewhere in the country, maybe never have to see anyone ever again, never...[/i]

It would only be six months, and his credits would still be there when he got back. His professors were such nice, understanding people, and they assured him people could be successful in college even with a few months' interruption.

His roommate, Ryan, had taken Alex's excuse for having to visit a sick relative, and they had already made arrangements for someone else to stay there to help with the rent until Alex returned. Ryan and a few other friends had even taken him out for a farewell dinner the night before. It had actually made Alex extremely uncomortable, but he realized it was a sweet gesture.

It would be okay, Alex assured himself, just breath in, breath out, read a sentence, turn the page.

With a sigh he checked and rechecked his duffel bag and backpack. The e-mail had said all his needs would be provided, but Alex wanted to take a few things, some practical, some for comfort. Mainly books. He was leaving his laptop and cell phone behind, because this Dante Lui'ci did not want anyone to be told, no interruptions from the outside world. Maybe he wasn't such a bad guy after all. He certainly seemed to go with Alex's style.

It was the second day, and Alex continually looked out the window. He assumed a billionaire would send something fancy, like a limo, maybe even have intimidating men in black suits just to be dramatic, maybe even...

Alex checked the window. Dear Lord, he was right, a limo was pulling up, and there were men in black suits and everything.He pulled up the overly large sleeves of his hoody, grabbed his bags, and said a quick good-bye to his roommate.

He met the men halfway down the hall, and nervously introduced himself.

"Excuse me, sirs, but my name is Alex Abendroth, and I think that you might be looking for me," Alex said.

[i]I only hope I don't regret this[/i], thought Alex as he followed the two men to the street.[/COLOR][/FONT]

[CENTER]Angie was in her room Cosplaying as usual. She was alpha testing a new virtual reality web cam not to be put on the market for another 2 and a half years.
"what a drag.. the graphics on this VRW suck majorly its all 2-D filthy hacks...I could design a better model in my sleep" she said to her online companion Motko she was a co-worker who lived in Tokyo. Suddenly on her screen a little birdie appeared
[FONT=Fixedsys]brb MoMo[/FONT] she typed. as she lifted the helmet off to check her email

[B][FONT=Fixedsys][PHP]Dear, Angelica

Hello,
I?m writing to you, my friend, to congratulate you on winning an all expense paid trip to visit me on a secluded island off the coast of Australia to live in my mansion for as long as you wish. Beware, this is no ordinary mansion mind you. Within the walls of my home, everything you ever wished for will be granted to you. And I mean....everything. All the deepest, darkest desires of your heart will be yours. Whatever pleasure you seek for yourself...will be granted to you. If you desire love, sex, money, drugs, food...all of life?s commodities will be yours.

If you wish to accept this honor, please...simply reply back with a smile yes or no; and immediate transportation plans will be set in place for you to arrive. If you choose to decline this offer there will be nothing held against you.

Upon arriving, there is but one rule which you must obey while in my home.

You must obey your card... (the lettering looks to be written in blood)
You must obey whatever I say...
You must sacrifice something of equal value in order for you to refuse the laws above...

That is all..,everything will be explained when you arrive...any questions that you have will not be with held from you prior to entering the mansion.

You may be asking yourself...??why would I bother coming to a place such as this??? I?ll tell you why...if you play my little game...if you last living in the house, you will earn half of my family fortune, which comes to around thirteen billion dollars. I?m not joking, I?ve come to realize the worthlessness of money...so I?ve decided to give most of it away to the ones who I find to be worthy. And I will wait as long as it takes to find the right ones. So; whomever can stay within the house for six months, will be declared the winner...and the thirteen billion will be split between those who are left. But hear me...once you enter the mansion, you may not leave the grounds of the estate. Doing so, unless being told to do so by myself or the decisions of your fellow housemates will result in severe punishment.

So there you have it; come to my mansion...where all your dreams come true...and have the opportunity to win thirteen billion dollars. No strings attached...and believe me...it will be worth your while.

Oh, one more thing...do not tell anyone of this, for we want to make this as smooth and without interruptions from the outside world. Don?t worry...we?ll know if you tell...which will automatically revoke your chances of coming to my mansion. As clarity for your honesty and silence...I have taken the liberty of electronically sending thirty thousand dollars to your personal back account, as a token of my friendship too you.

That is all I will tell you...once you reply back to this email...you will have an escort waiting outside your house within two days to bring you to the mansion.

I have chosen you because I feel you to be worthy of such a reward; for your dedication to society, your love and compassion, your leadership, your strength through turmoil, and last but not least...for just who you are. [/PHP][/FONT][/B]

She read the mail and perked up.
"Wow! SO COOL!" she said smiling she did her happy dance chanting
"I'm gonna be a I'm Gonna be a Billonare!" she said laughing as she opened up her Compse page and wrote back to him

[FONT=Fixedsys][I]Dear, Mr. Lui'ci
I would be uber delighted to come it sounds like a real blast! I cant wait I'll pack and be waiting outside my apartment in Sicily, I'll be wearing a Black and Pink Kimono so ya know

2 Days Later...
Angie was outside in her kimono all her bags lined up neatly she packed, 7 sets of clothes, her Cellphone, and her prized possession a mint condition Yuki-Chan Snow man collectible. Soon the black limo pulled up to her a man in a black suit came out
"Are you miss Vayanya?" he asked.
"Yes I am" she said nicely the door opened and she got in some men loading her bags into the trunk she got comfy seeing a virtual reality helmet on the wall hanger. She decided to try it on and was stunned in amazement
"Wow I mean Wow its totally 3-D its like I'm not wearing the helmet this guy must be Uber rich to build this kinda stuff!" she said with a 3rd grade enthusiasm as she began a Virtual Cosplay with a Virtual person.[/CENTER]

OOC: sorry its kinda long and crappily done I tried my best]

[Akieen Cloud]

[COLOR=Purple][B]Aniue sat in her small apartment looking out the window thinking abouthte e-mail, thinking if she had done the right thing. She was thrown out of her trance when the neighbors dogs began to bark, the next thing she knew there was a knock at her door. Standing she walked over and looked through the peek hole to see two men dressed in suits wounderful. She felt her face flush as she looked at her own apperance and opened the door slightly.
"Can I help you gentlemen?"
"We are here to pick up an Aniue Wolf."
"Right, give me a moment please, you may come in and take a seat if you like."
"Do you have any bags that need to be carried down?"
She flushed even more, the most clothes she really had were just her home outfit and her work outfit, and both were pretty bad off, covered in grease and oil, she was a hard worker and did her best. She opened the door more and let them in.
"Um, I have only one thing I would like to take and I can carry that, can you please wait a moment while I change?"
"The attire you have now is fine with the Master."
"I can understnd that, but it is not with me."
She turned and walked back to her room and pulled a plastic bag out of her closet and pulled out a skirt and a smooth silk dress shirt out as well, she changed quickly and slipped on a dressy pair of heels and stepped out of her room and faced the two men smileing gently.
"I am ready now."
THey nodded and led her out and to the limo where she slipped in and looked around
and found her curiousity riseng, she began to play wiht all the buttons and make the sun roof move till one of the men looked backa nd asked her to stop.
"Sorry, I have never been in one before."
She relaxed against the seat and just enjoyed the ride. [/B] [/COLOR]

[M.Ali]

[FONT=Trebuchet MS][size=1]"God....why did you stop me from pulling the trigger?" J.B. said as he laid on his bed looking at the ceilling. There's no reason for me to be alive any longer....I would be dead now if that e-mail didn't come...

[i]"Is that e-mail even real? Even though I said yes, people don't just give away money these days....either way it doesn't matter right now, I've gotta play some music to calm myself down."[/i] He thought as he got up and went across the room to get his saxaphone.

"Hmmm, my reed (the wooden mouthpiece) is broken.....and I don't have anymore.....may as well go to the music store and get some more."

And with that being said he grabed his I-Pod and headed for the door, but as he walked down the stairs of his apartment building, the only thing he could think about was that strange e-mail[i] "It would be great if it was real though, just the possibilty of anything I could want sounds amazing..."[/i] and as he approached the building doors, he saw a black limo pull up with dark tinted windows[i] "I wonder what rich bastard is in there"[/i] he thought as started down the street toward the music store.

"Excuse me sir, but do you know a Joshua Billings that lives here?" said a voice behind him.

When J.B. turned around he saw a man in black suit looking quite confused, "Yea, you're lookin at him...who wants to know?"

"You're limo awaits sir, courtesy of Master Dante Lui'ci."

"Huh, so I guess the e-mail was real."

"Do you have any luggage that you would like for me to get sir?"

"I lost track of time and didn't realize that two days had passed already so I don't really have time to pack....hmmm...... if this guy can give me anything, then I'm sure clothes wouldn't be a problem right?"

"Yes sir, shall we leave then?"

"As J.B. climbed into the car and shut the door, he thought to himself [i]" Why not, I've got nothing else to lose."[/i]

[b]OOC:[/b] I hope that was good enough![/FONT][/SIZE]

[COLOR=DarkSlateGray][SIZE=1][CENTER]The weather outside was beautiful as the suns rays beamed down upon Dante as he lay naked beside the crystal foundations of the pool. His short blonde hair looked like gold in the sunlight. His bangs fell over his eyes; shading them.

In front of him on the ground lay a half dozen or so folders packed with papers and pictures of the individuals now making their way to his mansion. The rush of excitement was overwelming...almost exhausting him whe he took his break beside the pool. In his mind he was already planning, creating and destroying all the elements that were now about to take place...as like a serial killers sexual arousal and anticipation before an obduction.

It would be soon...so very very soon. In just a few hours he will create the cards of fate before everyones arrival. He could almost see the decisions that were going to be made...and the sin that will eventually overtake them all.

[COLOR=Purple][B]Aniue hadn't even realized she had fallen asleep till the door opened and she fell sideways and almost out of the limo.
"Oh, are we here already?"
The man holding her door nodded.
"Yes ma'am."
She slid on the leather interior and out into the bright sunshine carefully, she smiled as she looked around, the surroundings were lovely and peaceful.
"I think I am going to enjoy this very much."
She felt a slight cold chill run up her spine even though it was warm and beautiful outside. She frowned slightly and then shook it off. She looked up at the outer wall of the large masion and took a deep admireing breath at the detailing in the red and beige sand stone. She lay a henad on the cool stone carefully, as if; if she touched it would fall over and turn into dust. She walked over to the black steel gate that towered above the oter entrance and put a hand on one of the large round bars and took a step back as it swung open easily, almost like it had done it on it's own. She held the little book to her chest and procceded into the inner walls of the home that she would be staying at for the next while of her life time. She felt excitement run through her now, as well as more nervousness. She was so used to small things, small living areas, small everything. Staying here would be unlike anything she had ever experiance in her life. She looked to the skys and ran a finger over the cross around her neck thanking god that she was a simple person and not one who was greedy and selfish. She was 20 and had never known love, that was he only desire. To fall in love would be the best thing that ever happened to her. she stopped at the overly large wooden doors, she put her hand on them and sighed in appreciation at the wood work done, the steel braces running down the sides and middle of the polished light cheery wood, furnished and sanded down to smoothness that could possibly match that of a baby's skin. She smiled and put her forhead aganist it and took a deep breath, even under the polish and furnishing chemicals she could still smellt he faint, sweet smell of the cheery wood. She smiled more and gae them a push. Nothing happened. She tried again, this time harder and still nothing. She huffed and knocked, waited for 5 minutes and decided that she would just wait here till something happened. She looked up as more limos were pulling in down the long driveway that she had missed being asleep. Now that she looked around the gardens were full of the bright season flowers, reds, yellows, oranges, pinks, she smiled as she thought of her grandmother's garden. She looked all over admireing the decorative bushes and gardens, the foutains that were placed around the grounds to make it seem more peaceful. She caught sight of a swing near one of the foutains, and in the middle of a large flower garden. Almost directly under a large weeping willow tree; she took a mental note where it was so she could find it again. She looked back up and striaghtened her oddly colored hair, borwn and red, mahogany and blonde all natural, it set off the light blue dress shirt she wore with the black, short pencil skirt and black heels. She felt as if she would almost fit in when she saw the others that had been invited. She didn't know that others had been invited, but she guessed that was who were in the limos that were making their way down the drive and towards the next big thing in their lives, just as she had done. She took a deep breath to steady her self and straightened her back leaning on the overly large doors for support crossing her ankles and arms acorss her chest, her semi long bangs falling into her eyes as she held the book tight and waited pateintly for the next step to take.[/B][/COLOR]

[Veritas]

Here I am fashionably late as always, o_O again I apologize for the delay Kairi.

[size=1][color=mediumturquoise][i]Dear Dante,[/i][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=mediumturquoise][i]It seems that you know me, or at least of me quite well. This alone would compel me to find out more and the only way seeming to do so is to join your little game, chirade or whatever it be. Forgive me if I offended, no harm was meant, it just isn't everyday you get an e-mail such as yours. [/i][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=mediumturquoise][i]Your gift of $30,000 is appreciated, I also wanted to send you confirmation of my silence, I am a man of my word, even without the money, I would happily obliged. [/i][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=mediumturquoise][i]As you may or may not know, I do suffer from a slight case of Schizophrenia, I am taking a months supply of medication although through the duration of my say, if you could make arrangements for this it will probably make my stay with you more pleasant.[/i][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=mediumturquoise][i]I will most likely be seeing you within a few days from the sounds of your e-mail, until then,[/i][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=mediumturquoise][i]Sincerly,[/i][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=mediumturquoise][i]Andreas W.[/i][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]- Message Sent -[/b][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray]Andreas slowly shut his iBook, leaning back to stare at the ceiling. "[i]Is this real'[/i] [color=darkred][i]'No who would ever give you thirty-thousand dollars, let alone live with your sorry ass'[/i][/color] [i]'But I have it, and now I can help mom'[/i] [color=darkred][i]'Take the money, your mom is going to die one day, whether it's cancer or old age doesn't matter'[/i][/color] [i]'SHUT UP!'[/i] [color=darkred][i]'..............[color=darkred]'[/color][/i][/color][color=darkred]"[/color][/color][/size]


[size=1][color=gray][i][b]The next day.......[/b][/i][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"But son, how did you get that much money? How are you going to live if you give me all your money" [/b]A soft, caring voice resounded through the phone, though there was something in her tone, something that told you she was sick.[/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"Don't worry about it mom, I'll be fine. I got offered a job, I can't go into details but it's with the government, so I'll be well taken care of, I won't be able to contact you for about 6 months though."[/b] Andreas spoke, the half lie, half truth burning his tounge like acid, as a voice in his head released a sickly laugh.[/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"Thats a long time, though I know better than to ask questions you won't get answers for, so you'll be ok?"[/b] The concern flooded through her mouth, but she didn't act on the mothers instict pulsing through her veins.[/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"Ya mom I'll be fine, everything has already been arranged, just get better and we can go over everthing when I return ok?"[/b] [/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"Ok this is just so sudden but I love you Andreas, Take care of yourself, ok"[/b][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"Love you too mom, Get well."[/b][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][i]Click[/i]. Andreas set the phone down, turning back to his iBook, a search page opened. [i]"No results for Dante Lui'ci"[/i]He mouthed looking at the bold red print. [i][b]"[/b]I can't find any information about this guy, not a scrap, he must really have connections, and money if there isn't information on him. I guess this could be a scam, but the money, the routing and transit #'s were both legit, it's definately real money...."[/i][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][i]Knock Knock.[/i][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray]Andreas swifly closed the window, twisting out of his chair and walking towards the door. He lived by himself in a small appartment, just a room, small kitchen, and a small bathroom. Placing on hand on the dead bolt the other on the knob he twisted, the door gliding open, his best friend John standing in the door.[/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"Dre what's up? I heard you were leaving, whats the deal man?"[/b] The brown haired man asked letting himself in.[/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"Yeah I am, I'm going to live with my mom for a bit, she is going to be getting treatment so I am gonna take care of her for awhile."[/b] Andreas explained leading John back to his room.[/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"Awwww you're such a cutie"[/b] John said wrapping Andreas's head in his arm, ruffling his hair, before letting go "[b]But thats good she's getting treatment, I'm happy for you. So when you leaving?"[/b][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"Today"[/b] The reply was short, but the effect was long as John's eyes widened before he regained control.[/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"Damn so soon, How come you didn't say anything, we could have at least grabbed so brew at a pub for a farewell."[/b][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray]Andreas hesitated before answering, packing the last of the clothes he was taking in his second suitcase. [b]"Sorry, my heart just wouldn't have been in it you know, I just need some time away I think."[/b][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"It's ok man, sorry to put you on the spot like that, I understand, be sure to keep in touch though ok?"[/b][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"I'll try, she doesn't have the web, so I'm SOL there, but maybe I can call, or go old fashioned and write, I'll be back before you know it though."[/b] Andreas reasured with a warm smile, though the smile only touched the surface, he was lying to the 2 most important people in his life.[/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray]Another Knock interupted the two, as Andreas walked to grab the door. A man stood in a black suit, hair neatly brushed, eyes hidden by pitch black sunglasses.[b] "Pardon, would you happen to be Andreas Willmonte?"[/b] he asked sternly.[/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"Yes"[/b][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"Your limo awaits, is there any luggage you'd like me to carry?"[/b][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"Yes please, follow me"[/b] Andreas motioned the man inside, showing him the bags. The large man nodded, grabbing both at once leaving the 2 friends alone.[/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"Who's he, and whats with the limo?"[/b] John asked scratching his head curiously.[/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"A guy from the hospital, the treatment they are going to perform is somewhat experitmental since my moms case is rare, so they asked me to meet with them prior so they could go over the details."[/b][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"Ah I see, well that's my cue I suppose, stay safe Dre." [/b][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][b]"You too John"[/b][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray]Andreas watched as his friend walked out the still open door. Sighing he looked at himself in the mirror, [color=darkred][i]"Lies, lies and more lies, some son and friend you are".[/i][/color] Smoothing out his jeans, Andreas grabbed a black blazer from his closet putting it on over his black dress shirt. Grabbing his iPod as he left, he locked his door for the last time in what would probably be awhile. Walking briskly he approached the black limo, it's body smooth, and sheen, shining in the dull sun. A different man in the same attire opened the door for him as he approached.[/color][/size]

[size=1][color=gray][i]"Not a pratical vehicle for London, but I guess when your rich appearance is everything"[/i] He thought to himself, stepping into the car as a small drizzle began to leak from the sky.[/color][/size]

OOC: Thats all for now, I'll post getting to the mansion after a few others have posted theirs. Let me know if anything needs changing Kairi.

Just to let you know the red sentences is the voice that Dre's Schizophrenia manifests itself as.

[color=green][font=Comic Sans MS]OOC~ Sorry Kairi and everyone. I've been having a crap week, and this weather isn't helping much either :animestun

[size=1]"There that's everything," Kiki said to herself as she finished packing. She hummed merrily as she carried two light blue duffle bags down the stairs to the foier of her late grandmother's rather large house. She hadn't packed much, just a few of her favorite outfits as well as her most prized posession, a small, worn, lether-bond book with an intricate gold lock. The word "Diary" was emblasen on the front cover in fine gold script.

She pulled the book out of her bag and read over the past few entries:

[i]Grand Mere passed away last night. Today fell so surreal. I think a part of me still hasn't accepted the fact that she is really gone. Being isolated to the estate for most of my life, I sometimes wished to know what it would be like to live on my own. But now that I am truly alone in this world, I find myself overcome with fear. For the first time in my life, I don't know what to do next.

[center]---[/center]

Grand Mere's lawer came to help settle her estate today. She told me that she left the majority of her posessions to me, but I have no use for such a large amount of property, so I've made the decision to sell it and donate half of the profit to charity. I think it is what Grand Mere would have wanted me to do. As we were finishing the appasales a recieved an e-mail alert on my cell. I recieved the most bizarre message from a man by the name of Dante Lui'ci. He has offered a large sum of money and will grant our greatest desires if we agree to live at his mansion for six months. Now money is not something I am in great need of, of course, but the desires thing seems quite intruiging. Also, seeing as I still have no idea as to where I should go from here, I figure this may be just the thing to help me deside what I should do with the rest of my life.[/i]

Kiki was pulled out of her reverie by the sound of the door bell. "Coming!" she shouted as she got up from the stairs and made her way towards the door. Kiki pulled open the door to see a man in a suit.

"Good morning miss, would you happen to be Kirstin Gregorson?" Kiki nodded. "If you would please come this way, your limo awaits. Do you have any luggage?"

"Just those two bags." Kiki pointed to her duffles sitting at the foot of the stairs. A second man in a suit hurried in an retrieved her things as the first politely led her by the hand into the limo.

As he shut the door and drove away from the only home she had ever known, Kiki couldn't help but feel a sense of antisipation and fear. [i]I hope I'm doing the right thing,[/i] she thought.[/size][/font][/color]

[color=green][font=Comic Sans MS][size=1]Kiki was just finishing her lastest diary entry when the limo pull up to the enormise mansion and estate. As she stepped out into the bright sunlight and gazed upon her surroundings, all of her uncertincies seemed to melt away. The landscaping was simply spectacular. And the mansion, [i]Wow![/i] That was the only word to describe it she thought.

A few more limosines pulled up besides hers and she could see a few others pretty close to her age getting out and beginning to explore. Kiki didn't want to waste any time and began to make her way towards the mansion entrance. With the view of the magnificant architecture outside, she knew it had to be just as wonderous on the inside. But just as she was about to grip the large metal handle a voice spoke up behide her.

"Don't bother. It's locked; I already tried it."[/size]

[COLOR=Indigo][FONT=Book Antiqua]Alex arrived a bit ahead of the other people, it seemed. When he exited the limo, he saw no one else around, but did see similar cars coming up the long driveway in the distance.

Dante Lui'ci's... men, servants, whatever they were, had left him alone without any specific instructions. [i]I guess it would be okay to look around a little[/i] Alex thought. He strolled around casually, not wanting to stray too far on the grounds. It reminded him of a palace from a fairy tale, some place of reward the hero receives for his troubles. [i]Unless it's the kind of place that deceives the protagonist, and they get caught by a witch or dragon or evil king or--shut up, Alex.[/i] He laughed anxiously to himself. This Lui'ci was just eccentric; rich people celebrities did crazy things all the time, right?

Alex walked up to the front door of the mansion. Curtains blocked any view of the inside. He reached tentatively for the ornate, twisting metal door knob and twisted it. Unsurprisingly, he found it locked. It seemed rude to him to lock out people that traveled even all the way across the world to see you, but then again, any billionaire who did not keep their doors secured had to be pretty stupid.

A few more people had arrived. Alex moved towards a line of trees, unsure whether he should join in or not. He counted three other males and three females. Not that gender mattered, really. All people made him equally nervous.

A girl maybe a year or two older than him with blue-black walked towards the house's entrance. Alex swallowed thickly and decided now was as good a time as any to get to know his new housemates.

"Don't bother. It's locked; I already tried it," Alex said as she reached for the door knob. He smiled faintly, berating himself in his head, thinking he sounded a little rude. He offered her his hand. "My name is Alex Abendroth. Did you get an e-mail, too?"

"Yes. You can call me Kiki. Kiki Gregorson," she replied, shaking his hand. She seemed almost as nervous as Alex, which, oddly enough, made him relax. "This whole thing is pretty wild, isn't it?"

"Y-yeah, it is. Umm, if you don't mind my asking too much, why did you decide to come here? I mean, the money is my only real reason, well, a free trip to Australia isn't bad either, but..." He blushed as he realized he was rambling, and tugged up the too-large sleeves of his hoody to free his hands. "It's nice to meet you, anyway, Kiki."[/COLOR][/FONT]

[COLOR=Purple][B]Aniue sighed and looked up at the sky, it was clear and beautiful. She looked at the others that had arrived and corssed her arms, hugging her self unconsiously. Meeting people always made her nevervous, she always felt as if she would be judged with out even being known. It was something that happened to her all the time and she was sure it would happen this time as well. She hung back towards the doors alittle more then the others and just watched, smileing as they all seemed to be just as or more nervous then her self. She took the offered hand of Angie and smiled.
"If what this man says is true, that he can grant our truest desires, I will have to assume that could mean trouble, people have black hearts sometimes."
She blushed and looked down retaking her hand.
"I apologize, I sometimes say things with out realizeing I have said them."
Angie chuckled and waved it off.
"Don't worry, I'm pretty sure we all do that."
Aniue felt her proper mask slipping and began to get back into her normal groove of things and was soon smileing and adding her two cents into a conversation here or there.[/B][/COLOR]

[size=1][color=dimgray]The black limo gliding past the intricate iron gates, normally Andreas would have admired the design, letting his eyes have free range with every inch. It was art to him, unlike most, but this gate, this gate seemed ominous, as if Andreas was staring at bars of a prison cell, a cell about to be shut.[/color][/size]
[size=1][color=dimgray][/color][/size]
[size=1][color=dimgray]As the brakes came to a silent stop, the door opened flooding the dim interior with light. Stepping out Dre shaded his eyes, looking around the lavish grounds. [i]"Wow it's quite stunning her, father's eyes would burst if he saw this building"[/i] Dre muttered to himself examining the mansion. After the shock of the place he would be living settled, Andreas. Noticed a small group of people infront of the large carved doors leading into the house. [/color][/size]
[size=1][color=dimgray][/color][/size]
[size=1][i][color=dimgray]"Looks like I'm not alone, I guess I'll go join the party'[/color] [color=darkred]'They'll[/color][color=darkred] see right through you to the freak you are[/color]"[/i][color=dimgray] Dre thought, the voice in his head faintly whispering curses and blastphemy, but it wasn't a bad episode at all. Even with the medication they happened, what the meds really helped was the frequency, duration and the severity.[/color][/size]
[size=1][color=dimgray][/color][/size]
[size=1][color=dimgray]Walking up to the group, Andreas introduced himself.[/color][/size]
[size=1][color=dimgray][/color][/size]
[i][b][size=1][color=dimgray]"Hello everyone, my name is Andreas, though you can call me Dre or whatever nickname you can think of, I just thought I'd introduce myself since I will probably be spending the next few months with all of you."[/color][/size][/b][/i]

[FONT=Trebuchet MS][size=1]The plane ride from Georgia to Australia was very long and tiring, so within the passing hours, J.B. dozed off to sleep while passing over Scotland and thinking about the last conversation he had with his brother...
[U]*Flashback*[/U]
[i]"Now where was it you said that you're going?"

"To scotland for vacation....thought that I might have some Irish in me heh."

"Ha ha, very funny Chaz, you're 100% African-American....now cut to the chase and tell me what's got you goin to Scotland?"

"For vacation like I said!!" Chaz said jokingly. "So just stop worrying okay?"

"Alright, alright, just be safe and have some fun for me too okay?"

"Heh, you know I will!"[/i]

"Sir could please buckle your safety belt?" a woman said as she reached down and touched J.B.'s shoulder, "excuse me, sir?"

"Yes?" J.B. said as he opened his eyes.

"The plane is about to land, so could you please buckle your safety belt?"

"Oh, of course." He said with an aplogetic smile on his face. As he filed into the airport along with all the other passengers, he looked up to see a guy wearing a black suit that was holding a sign that had his name printed on it, "Wow, these guys sure don't waste any time..." and with that he approached the black suited man, made introductions, and was escorted to the limo once again.

The plane ride took more out of him than he knew; it figured since he hadn't had any real sleep in three days, so he stretched out his jet-laged body in the back of the limo, and began to sleep hoping that he would meet his brother once more in his dreams.

"Heads up Mr. Billings, this road ahead leads to the Mansion, but since it's a dirt road, it'll be quite rocky, so just hold on tight until we reach the pavement." The driver said cautiously, but unbeknowest to him, J.B. was already snoozing peacefully, so the driver kept driving as if J.B. were awake, and began down the dirt road along the bumps.

"Ouch!!" J.B. said as he awoke to find himself on the floor of the limo, " What the hell is going on!?", and as he peered out the window, he saw the towering hill on which the mansion stood. "Damn......I'll be living there? *sniff* I smell sea water...so the beach is nearby too? Maybe I did make the right choice by coming here." With the excitement pouring over him like water, he took his I-pod out of his pocket, pulled his hood over his head and began to listen to some tunes. Then it hit him, [i]"I wish my family was here to see this.......looks like I have to have fun for them too."[/i]

As they pulled up to the estate, J.B. could see about 7 limo's already parked and 7 matching bodies waiting around the door. "Driver, I didn't know that there where more people invited..."

"Second thoughts Mr. Billings?"

"No....the more the merrier right?" J.B. said jokingly, "Besides, 7 is a lucky number, so this should be interesting...."

When the driver opened the door, J.B. climbed out and was a little breathless when he saw the true beauty of the estate up close. It was very beautiful. Not to mention how much bigger the mansion was up close, [i]"....It almost looks like a castle...."[/i] he thought to himself.[i]"Hmm...might as well introduce myself."[/i]And with that he headed toward everyone else trying to look as friendly as possible.
