(One of the rp prizes)
Well, hello. Perhaps you can help me. I was looking for a group of people willing to deal with a .... problem. It's not a verrry big one just something that might require some speed and cunning and ....oh damn, there goes those darn blasted dolls again. If you want to help please go into the haunted house at 9:00pm sharp. However you can, even sneaking under the tent.. I know not very sporting but I will find you then. I really have to go, do hope to see you there.
Do you want to help? or do you think it is better to inform Nova and Headmaster Rhun about the suspicious meta ?
To sign up please post in the main event page.
Rules:
MidnightSpirit or Broken_illumination will post one to three time a day pushing the rp forward until its conclusion
No turn order
Those that reach the end will be able to enter a raffle for a meta, including the one above.
Those that do not win a meta can win a Glimmer(Pet) of their choice. Some glimmers can mutate if they are rped but not all.(lion/ess is one)
Those that join from the start or midway through the plot can enter the raffle for their choice of meta, anyone joining near the end can win a glimmer.
If you do not own a meta you can create a quick one using the form below. Try to keep power "believable". A toddler with super strength is not going to lift a boulder.
The person who wins a meta has one month to create a profile or the meta is given to he next person on the list. Once the profile is approved the person can keep that meta forever.
Trading is allowed between metas won in this event. The one month limit still applies.
Try to at least post once per day
People similiar to the prize metas may be seen in the rp but they are not them. Though it is fine to use that personality or pick a new one completely if you win.
You may play more than one character but it does not raise your chance of winning. (can only enter once in total for each meta prize)
Have fun

A carnival dressed meta beckons you closer, his elongated front teeth obvious with his beaming, if somewhat intimidating, smile. Behind him a hairless tail twitched and brushed against the back of the tent opening the flap just a bit to release a waft of fog.
" ๐ฒ๐๐๐ธ๐๐๐! ๐ฒ๐๐๐ธ๐๐๐!
๐๐๐๐ ๐ถ๐๐น ๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐พ๐! ๐๐ ๐ฎ๐ถ๐๐ธ๐๐๐ถ๐๐'๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐ข๐๐ถ๐๐๐๐ถ๐๐น ๐ฎ๐ธ๐ถ๐!" he laughed and gave a flourish to the tent behind him as his tail opened the flap releasing fog that moved slowly outward and curled around the feet of metas, a few looking more like fingers than not. Behind him the faint hint of blue light and....a swamp?
"๐ฏ๐ฝ๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐ถ๐ธ๐ ๐๐ฝ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐พ๐๐ฝ๐ ๐ถ๐ธ๐๐๐ถ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ถ ๐๐ ๐พ๐๐พ๐.. ๐๐ ๐๐๐. ๐๐ถ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐ฝ๐๐ถ๐น๐?" He grinned and motioned for anyone brave enough to enter to go. "๐ฉ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐น๐๐น, ๐๐๐๐ ๐น๐๐ถ๐ ๐ฝ๐๐ถ๐น๐๐ถ๐๐๐๐ ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ ๐๐ถ๐๐๐ ๐ธ๐ถ๐๐ ๐๐ป ๐๐ฝ๐ ๐ธ๐๐๐. " The smile never left the feral meta's face.
This seemed to be the only haunted "house" in the event, it was also the right time and it was what that hurried looking vampire had said to meet if they wanted to help. The question was...who would enter?
Zi watched with keen interest, attention locked on the strange, carnival meta when he spoke, and then, after he finished, drifted to the swamp space lingering beyond. That smile managed a balance between eerie and deeply curiosity-inducing. The swamp loomed in foreboding silence, its depths beyond determination.
But Zi was no coward. Plus, they wanted to see for themself what was going on.
Still, the young pixie kept themself out of sight of any others in the area. Zi knew they were too small to be out getting into anywhere too dangerousโbut there had been an invitation. And Zi never had been able to resist a tempting question or adventure. With caution, combined with the small array of powers Zi had at their disposal, they could at least get a good scout out of what was going on and not miss out.
Yelena had lost a bet with Melek. That was the only reason she was here at the Haunted house. She would never want to go in alone otherwise. Oh, why wouldn't Melek come too? She was already a little spooked. This was such a bad idea.
A feral meta with a carnival costume held the tent flap closed while he psyched Yelena and the other metas out. She did not know anyone at Sanctuary or she probably would have been hanging on their arm. But she was determined. She would make it through the whole haunted house without screaming. That was in the terms of the agreement, after all. Then, she would make Melek pay.
The showman opened the tent flap and let everyone in. Trailers of fog curled around their ankles as if to hold them in thrall. She moved forward and the illusion was gone. It was all an illusion. It was fake. There was no spirit or two or three. Just her and the tent. She could do this. She stepped inside and awaited the shock of her young life.
Dagiel swayed slightly as he stood with the group. He couldn't exactly remember why he was here. Kappa had been ignoring him for a while now and was just floating around above the other meta's heads as if enjoying a show. He looked down at his hands, so he /had/ picked up that tray of brownies. He had another thought but it slipped away, he shrugged, some fellow was talking, he couldn't exactly focus on what was being said, so he picked up a brownie from the tray, there was only a few left. He had forgotten how many he'd even eaten now. His head felt so weird and so did his body but he also felt really happy and these brownies tasted soooo goood, he bit into it as the fog curled around his feet, *cooool, a circus* He thought to Kappa, who finally responded, *It's a Halloween carnivale, are you sure you want to go in?* She sounded like she was a little worried.
But in response Dagiel suddenly burst out laughing, he was kicking his feet around in the fog as it swirled around, he probably didn't even understand what she said anyways. Dagiel followed two metas ahead of him, they looked like kids, so this place had to be fun, he went to enter the tent when he realised he was still holding the tray, he grabbed a couple brownies off the top and put it down, on the ground, beside the tent; with around 6 brownies still on it.
Ivan stared suspiciously at the tent and the carnival meta that was ushering people inside. He bit his lip. There was no way he was going in there. Nooo way in heck. He just knew something creepy was in there. And he had no desire to freak out and scream like a little girl in front of anybody.
But as fate would have it, he was going to do just that. While he was deep in thought, Pyper snuck up behind him, and grabbed his shoulders, yelling โBoo!โ in a loud voice.
Ivan shrieked and then quickly covered his mouth. โOh my god!โ he hissed, turning to glare at her. โWhyyyy did you have to do that?โ
โTo see that great reaction, thatโs why!โ she held her stomach as she laughed. โSo now, what are you waiting for? Letโs go in!โ She grasped his hand and pulled him along towards the entrance.
Ivan protested but he couldnโt escape her grip. He began to panic as he was dragged past the smiling carnival meta who made no move to help him. His fox ears drooped. There was no doubt about it. He was doomed.
Pyper on the other hand was ecstatic. She loved haunted houses. Hopefully theyโd get a good scare! As she stepped inside her eyes went wide. It was a swamp. How cool! โCome on! Letโs gooo~ Maybe that weird guy from before will be here.โ
The feral mole rat kept smiling "Yes... in in" he laughed but there was a malicious look in his eyes as he watched all the metas enter the tent but seem to pause suddenly and stare after the spider....horse? he shivered slightly.
---------------------------------------------
A winged kid with a helmet paused at the entrance and stared inside.
The showman was now staring after the kid who was quietly laughing to himself and his....fish? as he walked inside. That was...... different.
The helmet teen grinned and walked toward after the others, humming softly. Scary? Maybe or maybe not.
------------------------------------------------
The inside was dark with pale blue light coming from the ground. As they walked the fog seem to thicken around everyone's legs and the fake trees in the wall seem to become more and more life as a prickle of energy passed there skin until...
*Splash*
The solid ground turned muddy and sticky as water swirl slowly around everyone feet and the faint smell of plant decomposition was in the air. Abreeze quickly started up and blew past the trees making them bend and moan. To all senses it felt like they were outside, there were even stars now in the sky instead of the tent canopy.
Flickers of fox fire were the only lights showing a path leading forward toward a raised coffin that seemed to have been set above the swamp floor with care. It was an exact copy of the coffin they might have found on the Sanctuary ground, the name on the coffin was the same.
-ALICE May She Rest in Peace -
Above the coffin was the statue of an angel weeping, both hands held out to either said as if it should be carrying something.
The only thing out of place was a tall man in tones of green, gold and brown, flicking open and close his pocket watch. "Really well done... who knew Zen could do it" he was muttering to himself as he looked up. "You're he-..." he paused as he saw only children and teens "-re?" he looked confused. "Did your parents send you? Tell them we don't have much time. We need to go before we miss the window." Hopping off the coffin he looked between them all in consternation.
Dagiel was still chuckling to himself when suddenly, *Squelch* beneath him the ground went muddy, then wet. He sighed, he liked his pants but to late- *Riiiip* his legs replaced with his Xana tail.
He tried to swiggle forward with the muck around his tail, and heard a giggling in his head, *hehehehehe, ohhh my.... Hehehehe.... You look like a snail* Kappa was laughing, the fish in the bubble was pointing a fin at Dagiel, standing on it's fin making the laughing gesture.
Dagiel burst out laughing even more at Kappa's comment's, no one else could hear her so he probably looked very odd, he held the brownies higher to protect them, must protect them they were so good. And before his eyes the world changed with a gust of... smelly wind "Urrgh who farted?" He giggled again. Then he heard a voice, it caught his attention. It was different, it seemed to get through his hazy headedness, he turned his head and saw the speaker, and then the grave-- Where was he even? He had already forgotten he'd walked into a tent. He snail-ed up to the speaker, "Hey-- I'm almost and adult." He said then looked at his hand, he still held 2 brownies, "Look- I dun' no where the others're... but... Would you like a brownies? They taste pretty good..." He said offering up his hand, they weren't squished, he'd been taking care of them, plus he may have eaten like 4 of them already and his head was feeling really odd. He smiled at the tall person as Kappa asked Dagiel, *What's he mean 'miss the window'?* "My friend here, want's to know-- What you mean?" He said nodding his head at Kappa who hovered above his head.
Yelena's perception of the swamp was that of the gradual change from fake trees to something more real. She could smell the decay, the ground had become mucky, the fog's arm-like trailers wrapped coldly around the ankles. If she had ankles. The mud was actually rather difficult for her to navigate and she found herself taking extra high steps just to get out of it. "Ugh," she said wearily.
She followed the trail of light thinking it was more up-lighting and not realizing it was actually foxfire. They stopped and milled about a coffin with a plaque dedicated to someone named Alice. She began to wonder if this would be some creepy version of a certain book that was already creepy.
"I don't need parents to tell me to come here. I came on my own," she replied to the man in green and brown. She wondered what "the window," meant just like the rest. But she was also distracted by the Xana boy who had lost control of his form in the muck. "Oh dear. Are you all right?" she asked Dagiel. He was laughing but it seemed right for someone to ask.
If Zi hadnโt watched it first hand, they never would have touched a random tray of brownies sitting outside on the ground by a tent. Obviously. Their tongue pressed to the back of their teeth in contemplation, toes wiggling in their boots.
But, Zi had seen itโand, the fishy fellow had taken one too, so it couldnโt be poisoned or anything.
As if on cue, Ziโs stomach rumbled, adding its perspective to the pot, and the pixie huffed quietly. Perhaps just one, for the journey. So, on the way in to trail after the others, keeping out of sight and sound much as possible, Zi managed to slip by the tray and pluck up a treat.
Then, in they went.
The fog nearly swallowed Ziโs small frame, but they arrived just in time to note that apparently, the gathered crowd wasnโt what this vamp had been hoping for. And more than one of the gathered company lookedโunsteady. A playful grin played at Ziโs lips, narrow fingertips hovering near to their phone in their pocket.
At least it didnโt promise to be a boring night.
As the twins walked along through the swamp, the ground beneath them began to grow damp and muddy.
โThis is so real. Itโs like weโre actually outside!โ Pyper whispered in awe.
Ivan grimaced. โYeah, I noticed.โ His boots were now caked in mud. โGrossโฆ.โ
Glowing foxfire lit the way as they arrived near a coffin. The words on it read โAlice... May She Rest In Peaceโ.
Pyper and Ivan wondered who that could be. Above the coffin was a weeping statue. The hands were together as if they should be holding something. Pyper was about to mention it; finding it peculiar. But before she could say anything, a xana boy nearby was struggling through the muck. The dampness has caused the boy to transform into his mer form. He was flailing a little and babbling on as if talking to someone the others couldnโt see.
Ivan and Pyper both raised a brow at the odd scene.
The spider meta from the dance was offering a helping hand. And the twins figured they might as well help too. They both walked over through the mud. Each of them offered their assistance.
While they were slightly distracted by Dagiel, the vampire appeared. He sounded rushed as he said something about missing a window. What was he even talking about?
Ivan opened his mouth to question him. โWhat do you mean?โ he asked curiously; hoping the stranger would explain what exactly he wanted them to do.
Dagiel blinked at the face in front of him, then smiled, "Well, talkin' horsie, I am actually great." He looked down, "Well, I thought I was- I don't know any horsies who have spider bodies." He tilted his head at her, but before he could say anything else some other meta's that looked to be around his age came over to him offering him some help, he looked down, "Ohhh right.." What was going on with his head, he felt so odd and he kept loosing track of his thoughts... He tried to lift his tail a little from the muck and it made a awful squelching sound... "Err... Anyone able to umm... Give me a bit of a pull? I appear to have lost my legs." He giggled... *Lost my legs* he thought at Kappa,*get it?*.
Kappa sighed, *What is wrong with you tonight?* She couldn't help him, but she drifted closer to the speaker, maybe if she at least listened to what he had to say she could, re-explain it to him.
Dagiel looked at Ivan he seemed unhappy, "Hey, wanna brownie?" He ventured offering him his hand as well, holding the two brownies.
The man stared in fascinated horror as teen slowly changed back into his xana form all while trying to do everything he could to keep the brownies above his head. That was ...it was... "Gaia..."he whispered quietly and took the brownies in one hand and used the other to try and move him closer to the grave. "Zen created this maybe a little to well. As for your question, I had asked some adult metas to help me with a small problem. I guess they didn't want to help or didn't believe me.EEee!!! " he shouted, letting go of the Xana and quickly jumped on the coffin, nearly falling off the other side but he was staring at Yalena with a look of mounting horror as he held the brownies in one hand as a shield. "Gaia!" he whispered, trying to calm down. "Sorry, I am sorry ... truly" he tried to apologize, knowing not all metas held on to a humanoid like look. I was with mounting realization that this was very likely all he was getting, take it or leave it.
Children..using children for their battles, he could only hope he would be forgiven in some point.
Swallowing he looked down at the coffin then back up. "I need some help in my world. First ...what do you know of Alice?" he motioned to the coffin he was on.
--------------------
Rise followed a bit after the two kitsune and the pixie, his steps quiet as a cat as he looked around. A shiver running down his spine the moment things just ...changed. Struggling against...something he looked a little see through as he arrived near the commotion.
Dagiel was still looking at Ivan when he was yoinked enough from the muck to wriggle onto slightly firmer but still wet land, "Ahh chee-" He started to say before the guy jumped away yelling, "Hey, it's just a fish." He said, completely missing what made him jump was the spider meta, not Kappa floating closer to him. *Oh shhhhh you* Kappa said to him, *Relax for me ok!* Dagiel looked at Kappa, and as he did so his eye's sort of glazed over and his voice took on a slightly more feminine touch, "What do you mean *your* world? Wait- Are you referring to Alice, one of Kae's children?"
Dagiel blinked a few times and opened and closed his mouth, it was always such an odd feeling when Kappa did that. He shook his head, he didn't know this Alice. "Who's Alice?" He said in his normal voice, as the fish in the bubble floated near the mans face, the fish appeared to be making urgent motion's swishing from side to side. like it was getting agitated.
