| Dreamland It’s a dream. Everything you’ll see, from now on, will be just a mere illusion. A frivolous mirage, a wild chimera or a tender will-o’-the-wisp - but, whose dream is this? The shards of the broken mirror had been scattered around, yet, whose figure is the one which they reflect? Is this a dream, a nightmare, or something so much more...? Maboroshi. “Welcome to Dreamland~” Maboroshi mumbled those words to himself, as if he was humming some weird poem over and over again. He was just wandering around, but he thought of that as rehearsal. He was supposed to utter those words again in front of a group of people later. Dreamland was such a weird place, after all. And he, as a guide, would need to greet them properly… There was nothing before his eyes, but the never ending path he had been walking down for the past few days. Step by step, he got himself engulfed by an abyss – in his surroundings, there was nothing but blackness. There was nothing. Was it real or not, was something he wouldn’t need to decide. He lived in Dreamland after all, where everything he saw was nothing but a dream. And Dreamland wasn’t supposed to take any sort of shape, if no one was dreaming of it. He knew, better than anyone else, what Dreamland was like. He had spent his own eternity on that place. Ever since he was aware of his existence, he had lived on that wicked Wonderland made up with illusions. He had heard more a time about the human world – in fact, if it wasn’t because his was unable to, he would have dreamed of the other land he had been told about. There were only a few inhabitants on Dreamland, and most of them were quite unfriendly. Interacting with others – that thought alone looked like fun to him. Nonetheless, he was trapped. Never, ever in his life he would be able to run away from that prison. He didn’t even have a face of his own, to begin with. He was just a shard of a broken mirror. On his face, people saw whoever it was they wanted to see the most. He didn’t have his own identity. His name, what’s more, Maboroshi, was just a plain definition of what he actually was… … a mere illusion. However, all he was up to back then was ponder around. He roamed about the darkness, while he whispered those words. “Welcome to Dreamland~! Welcome to Dreamland~!” he sang. He was all alone, bored and isolated. Yet, hope glimmered in his eyes. Because he knew, the players had already arrived. Lucile le Blanc Lucile opened her eyes when she felt the chilling floor against her cheek. Drowsily, she blinked, but before her eyes, she found unfamiliar scenery. “Where am I?” she asked herself, while she managed to sit down. Black - at first sight, that was everything she could discern from her surroundings. However, as the fog of her slumber began to clear up, she distinguished some figures. Her vision was kind of blurred from her sleep, yet, she found herself in a large hallway. A chessboard – the floor resembled one, because of its black and white tiles. This mysterious corridor was lined up with windows, which from the edges of their frames clung long, old-fashioned curtains. However, the ceiling was high. “How did… I end up here?” As she stood up, she tried to piece up the last memories she had – she tried remembering what it was the last thing she had done. “Oh, right… I had been writing”. The last memory she had was her College. During the break, she had been writing, under the shadow of a great tree. Yes, she had been writing one of her countless stories. But, this was clearly not her College. Doubts started to pop up in her mind. Where was she? Still confused, she looked around and began to walk aimlessly. “Is there someone there--?” she cried “Hey there! Someone---!” The game had begun. But, what would she encounter…? |
| ~MITSURU~ As he opened his eyes lying on an unknown floor Mitsuru slowly started to regain his consciousness while staring at all those unfamiliar things he couldn't explain. "How in hell am i here and whats here?" he asked himself. Then a flashback came on his mind. "Oh right" he remembered. The last thing he remembered was being chased by an unknown figure. He quickly looked around, but no one was chasing him. After regaining some of his strength, he slowly started walking in an unknown direction. "At least lets research this thing" he thought. As usual his sharp eyes analyze everything they encounter but as smart as he is, he couldn't understand a thing about this place and that's what frightens him the most. After walking for about 2 or 3 minutes he heard footsteps and moaning. "Ah what might this be?" He thought and quickly hid in to the shadows. As the footsteps got closer his hearth beat get faster and faster. He couldn't see the figure but that figure couldn't see him eather. "I have the element of surprise" He thought. Blinded by fear he charged the unknown foe and before he knew it, he crash in to a beautiful girl. "Oh god is she a human?" run throw his mind. But then he started looking at her, analyzing everything he sees: Her clothing, her expression, everything comes clear to him. "Yes she is, no doubt!" A quick thought run throw his mind He swiftly switches to his charming self. "Are you alright? Sorry if i frightened you, i thought you were something else" He looked her with a warming smile on his face. |

| Loki He yawns and looked around, wearing a bored expression on his face. This really was bored. The whole Dreamland became a completely bored place for him without humans from the real world. There wasn't anyone to trade information with. The only fun for him was "Guess-Starry's-panties-color" game... But, well... Even with it... He tilted his head, thinking about what to do, when he felt it. The coming of new players. He screams happily and took out of the thin air a pair of stupid-looking pink glasses in a form of stars and runs towards the direction where new players should appear. "Fuuuuun~ Fuuuuuuuun~ Let's play a gaaaaaaaaaaaaam~" he sang to himself, grinning. "I wonder, will there be some cuties? <3" He frowned suddenly. "Anyway, I shall appear there before that stupid Nick, or he'll take over all the girls! I shall huuuuuuuuuuurry!" And so he did. Errende There was a comforting silence around him. Comforting and... cold? Was he lying on sommething cold? How strange... Errende blinked and opened his eyes. The whole surrounding was so unfami;iar, that he immedeatly woke up completely and sat on the floor, looking around. "H-huh? W-where I am?" He rubbed his eyes and than looked around again. Nothing changed. So he just rased from the floor, still completely confused. Last thing which he remembered was him stumble on the stairs... He swallowed. Did he fell from the stairs and died? He quickly shook his head. No, no, no... that definetely couldn't be the point. Or could it? He sighed. What was happening here anyway? He heard some voices coming from somewhere nearby, so he decided that it would be better to follow them than staying there all alone. Still unsure of did he decide it right, Errende went in the direction from where the sound was coming and vey soon bumped at someone and fell to the ground with a soft yelp. "I-I'm sorry..!" he looked up and noticed a guy and a girl in front of him. |
 |
| Lucile le Blanc Lucile continued walking and shouting for a while. With every step she took, she conviced herself, that she wouldn't find anybody. Until, from the darkness, a asian looking young man appeared. She was a bit surprised at first, but the warm smile on the boy's face made her feel more relaxed. "I'm alright... I'm just lost.." she replied while she tried her best to make out of her confused expression, a smile. "Do you know where are we?" When she ended asking these questions. Other person bumped into her and fell to the ground. Lucile looked at the albino little boy and gave him her hand while he was apologizing. "Are you alright?" |
| ~MITSURU~ "Good to hear your alright and i don't know where we are... you see i am als.... ahhh" Before he could even finish his sentence something hit them both. He heard a soft yelp and immediate apology emerging after that. Mitsuru looked around to identify the culprit. "Another one" Mitsuru thought after seeing the new unfamiliar character. Somehow he was little nervous and uneasy. "Hey don't worry" Mitsuru said to him with a calm tone. |

| Errende He smiled sheepishly and nods. "I'm sorry. I'm really clumsy sometimes..." he bowed politely to her and the guy near her. Those people didn't look dangerous. Even more, they looked as lost as he was. So he decided that introduction won't hurt him. So he bowed again. "Well... my name is Errende Abyss... N-nice to meet you both." he smiles cheerfully at them. |
|
| Lucile le Blanc While the young albino little guy stood up, Lucile didn't even bat an eyelash. From the frightened expression the albino guy had on his face, she could tell that he was also unfamiliar with that weird place they found themselves in. Upon these thoughts, she grimaced. However, this new Errende guy suddenly introduced himself. He really looked harmless, candid, innoncent, naive. Therefore, she decided that it would be okay if she tried to be friendly with him. "So... none of us know where we are, huh?" she said, giggling, as she tried to erase the troubled expression on her face. "Nice to meet you Errende. My name is Lucile le Blanc." |
| ~MITSURU~ After hearing their introduction. "Ah where are my manners... My name is Mitsuru but my friends call me Esculius, sorry for the late introduction. Nice to meet you both." |
SacuroseApr 8, 2011 10:09 AM

| Errende He smiled happily as everyone introduced themselves. "So... Ms. Lucile and Mr. Mitsuru, right? It's really nice to see somebody else here... This place doesn't looks friendly at all..." He tilted his head, looking around again. This really was weird... ... but still very interesting. |
|
| ~MITSURU~ After looking around. "Yeah Errende-kun this place is really strange and i have the feeling we are not alone here... I don't know how to explain it but i think we are being watched. Do you feel it too?" Mitsuru says with worried voice. |

| Errende & Loki Errende nods at Mitsuru's words and was going to say something when something loud and red appeared from nowhere. A man. A tall man with long red hair. Weird. But Loki didn't lost any time and just hugged Errende tightly, grinning. "Hello~" the crazy red-haired guy said, than suddenly let go of the boy. "What? You're not a cutie? Don't trick me like that! Oh..." He noticed Lucile and rushed to her, almost dropping poor albino to the ground again. "Hello, beautiful lady! Nice to meet you~ Do you have a boyfriend? If not - you may think that you have one from now on!" He grinned and kissed her hand, playing a proper gentleman. |
|
| ~MITSURU~ After seeing this farce Mitsuru covered the terrified Lucile with half of his body and shout. "What are you, do you know where we are and do you know how to leave this wretched place. Answer me !!!!" Mitsuru starts to loose his cool and his true colors appears. "Answer me or else you WILL be sorry!!!" The fury in his eyes the anger written on his face he is like a demonic version of Mitsuru. |
SacuroseApr 8, 2011 10:12 AM

| Errende & Loki The poor albino just stayed there, completely lost and unsure of what to do. Loki grins. "My, so she HAD a boyfriend after all? How sad..." he tilted his head. "There's no point in telling you everytning right now. There'll be more people who'll come here, just wait~" He took a step back and looked around. "Well... My buddies isn't even here yet... I think he'll kill me if he'll find me here..." So he turned to Lucile again. "Ne, cutie~ I met you first, remember it?" He winked at her and vanishes suddenly. Errende blinked and looked around nervously. "W-what was... that?" |
|
| ~MITSURU~ After calming a little "Damn what was that son of a ***** talking about... More people? My buddies will kill me ? Does that mean there are more things like him and maybe even more powerful then him here? And why was he obsessed with that chick?" Like a blizzard all those thoughts smashed to his head. |

| Minori's eyes stir as her body reboots itself. As her mind regains consciousness, it flickers through events, in a attempt to clear the confusion that filled her thoughts. A little boy had kicked his ball onto the road, and went to get it. A chair was driving down said road, and she pushed the child out of the way. She could remember what happened next...she assumed the car hit her. But that was impossible, mainly because of the distinct lack of pain one would a expect from getting hit by a car. She did have a headache though. Probably a side effect of the reboot. Opening her eyes, Minori lets out a low groan as she lifts herself up. She wobbles slightly, but soon manages to regains her balance. Rubbing her head, she takes in her surroundings, and her brain does a double-take. Trees?...Why were there trees? "Wait...Did someone thing I was dead and dumped me in the woods? she says, disbelieving her own words. "Hello, anyone there?" She shouts, not really expecting an answer. Much to her surprise, she does notice a vague figure walking towards her. Hope fills her eyes, and quickly leaves when she recognizes who it is . "Well...Hello, my Queen" Ho Shit she swears to herself. It just had to be him, didn't it. "Aleskei? What the hell are you doing here?" she pause for a few seconds, before glaring hatefully at him, pointing an accusing finger. "You kidnapped me, didn't you, you sadistic bastard!" "Now why would I need to do that, My Queen" he replies, moving closer, his whole body exuding confidence. "For the last time, I'm not your Queen!" "Of course you are" His says, lifting her chin with one perfectly manicured hand. "I decreed it, so it shall be" he continues, moving in for a kiss. A feeling that can only be described as 'a sudden urge to pummel' courses through Minori, her hands clenching together into fists. "You cocky little....DIE TWICE ALREADY" she roars, clothes-lining Aleskei into the ground, before proceeding to kick seven shades into him A few minutes later... "You didn't have to be so violent, Minori" "I'm sorry" |

 Stop. Calm yourself. You're an idiot. |
| -Xenos- Xenos was laying alone, in a void of emptiness. The last thing he could remember was the slightly sincere sound of rain. There was no sound now, however. It was better that way, complete silence. "..." he blinked, after a few minutes. For all he knew, he could very well be dead. Being trapped in nothingness, only with your mind to keep you company, was an interesting sort of death. He had slightly hoped death would completely erase one's being, but this was a close second. To be trapped in silence, tormented by one's bored mind. The silence was broken, by the sound of music. It made his ears bleed, he wasn't dead yet. Xenos let out a sigh, as he stood up in the darkness. He walked in a random direction, away from the noise. His imagination was practically dead, no images formed for him, through the empty void of dreams. *Star* "Waaah..." the girl let out a tired sigh, rubbing her eyes. A smile formed on her face, as she paced back and forth in her own little castle. Star was one of the few creatures who could change the surroundings of dreams besides humans. A succubus, who drains the life away from those she encounters, Star was by no means liked by anyone. Except of course those that thought she could fulfill their wishes. "MMMmmh...Marshmellows..." she let out a small giggle to herself, as she ate a small sugary puffball from a bag. Star was a bad person, a villain, a nightmare, something like that. Or at least, she had been told so once before. She could change her image however she liked, but she couldn't change that fact about herself. "Just the food chain...or something like that!" she smiled, brushing her hair in the mirror. She was tempted to put more thought into how she led her life, but got bored of it. One didn't survive long in this world if they didn't have a strong will; at least, those that didn't follow the rules didn't. "Dreaming...dreaming...are you dreaming of me?" Star smirked, as she circled her finger across a mirror. She'd drain more power from those foolish enough to run into, until she was strong enough. Strong enough to finally escape the endless cycle. "Hmmm, what's this, what's this?" Star smiled, as images appeared and faded across the mirror. "I wonder...All of you dreams gathering to dreamers like honey...Is something new happening?" She started giggling to herself again. "A new game...I wasn't invited to?!" Star's giggle turned into a cackle. "Heh...we'll see about that." she threw the mirror across the room, shattering it into hundreds of little pieces. "Seven Years Bad Luck...heh." the castle she had formed for herself faded away, as she wandered around the Dreamworld. She changed her image into a hopeless looking young girl, she doubted it would fool anyone who knew her for long, but there were quite a few unfamiliar new players for her to encounter now. "A game...that's what we're playing right?" she whispered to herself, eating a marshmellow. |
| Lucile le Blanc Everything happened too quickly for her to react properly. A weird man popped out from nowhere and kissed her hand, and then Mitsuru protected her and got angry. Finally the man who apparently knew more about the extravagant place left. She was still confused, when the man's words echoed in her head. He knew. He knew a lot. "More people will come...” she thought to herself "Will they be more allies?… or will they be more weirdos?" "What should we do now...?" she said It was obvious that to just stand there was not a good option. But which was the best choice? Was it to chase after the weird man? Or maybe was it to continue wandering with the hope of meeting more people? "What should we do?" she repeated while thinking all of this. |
| Nicholas M. Damoore. When Nicholas awoke, he found himself sprawled on the floor. His body, in fact, could have been mistaken by that of a dead person in the position he was in, if it wasn’t because when his eyes opened, these shimmered with some sort of wicked intensity and vividness that could have hardly been mistaken by anything lifeless. Immersed in the void of darkness, Nicholas’ eyes glinted with a twisted passion, as if he hadn’t noticed where he was. As if it was just a dream. As if it was something absolutely ordinary for him. While he got up, he scanned his surroundings with no apparent interest in them. On the edges of his lips, nevertheless, clung a smirk. Yes, he was grinning. Leering, scoffing – the twisted trace on his face was yet to vanish. And, as he giggled, he mumbled the following words: “The game has finally begun, huh?” Casually, he began strolling aimlessly, while he whistled a melody, that time had thrown at the oblivion – with every step he took, his figure got engulfed by the darkness. Nonetheless, Nick didn’t panic. On his face, there was not a single trace of horror, or fright. Yet, he seemed to know, he was nothing but another pawn on the chessboard… Surprise was reflected on his eyes, however, when he spotted a young man prowling after nothingness. There was not a single thing remarkable about him, but this melancholic aura he gave off. Regret and torment flickered on his eyes. The grief that flashed on his face was one of someone who had abandoned all hopes in life. It was one of someone pitiful, despicable – or at least, that was what Nick first thought when he saw him. “Hey!” Nick walked towards him, as he let out a chuckle. Despite the bad impression this man had left on him, one thing about him was certain – whoever he was, had caught Nicholas M. Damoore’s eye. |
| ~MITSURU~ Lost in his thoughts of the resent events Mitsuru forgot all about his two companions. Sitting like this, wondering he heard 2 questions. He was to focused and missed the first one but the second he heard clearly. It was coming from the girl named Lucile, she was asking about their next move. Thinking about it Mitsuru realize that their best bet is to find that Red headed thing. "Ok as you all saw that thing isn't a human and he does know more then we do, so i am going after it, i suggest you do th..." Before he could finish what he started a footstep echoed in his head, he turned around to find a guy coming their way. He was the same as them, lost and confused. "Yet another one, that thing was right. So he does know our location i assume this is one of his power" thought Mitsuru. Mitsuru slowly started walking to the new guy with his friendly expression on. "Hey i assume you don't know anything either. My name is Mitsuru, these are Lucile and Errende, and you are?" Thinking "The more the better" Mitsuru welcomed their new comrade. |

| Minori and Aleskei start to explore the strange surroundings they found themselves in, with Aleskei rubbing a bruised arm. Once again, Minori had beaten him up. Not that he'd ever admit that he the various sores covering his body where the result of his Queen's fiery temperament. He had his reputation as a 'soon to be King' to think about. Minori, meanwhile, had been keeping a sharp lookout. Mainly for other people. The idea that herself and Aleskei were the only two people in this bizarre world made her shudder. Luckily, it wasn't long before she heard voices. Steering Aleskei through the trees, he finds the source. A group of people had gathered in a clearing People! her mind rejoiced I'm not stuck with that egotistical Russian Ducking behind a tree, the begins to straighten out her appearance. First impression were important. Aleskei knew this too. But his idea of a first impression was...different. "Hello, Peasants" he announced. "What the hell do you think your doing?" whispered Minori, still behind the tree. "Why, I am simply greeting the populace, my Queen" he replies, dragging her into the open. "Get the hell off me!" she protested, knocking his hand away "No need to be embarrassed, my Queen" "I'm not your Queen!" |
ChotgoriinApr 4, 2011 5:48 AM
| Stop. Calm yourself. You're an idiot. |
| Errende He looked around, confused. More and more people were coming. First the red-haired man whom Mitsuru called "a thing", than some guy called Matt... and after that two more people came to their group. He sighed. He never was good at making friends, really. So he smiled at Matt, and than blinked in surprise at the way of addressing them used by the other newcomer. "Peasants?" Loki "Noooooot fun at all!" he threw his star-like glasses on the floor and stepped on them, crushing them completely. "When the hell he's going to start it properly? Haaa... I want to know..." He kicked angrily what was left from the glasses and started walking away, humming a song, when a simple-looking girl caught his eyes. "Ooooooooi! 'ello my dear Starry!" he grins at her, coming closer. "You also decided to meet the newbies? Good, good! You may like them~" He tilted his head curiously, waiting for her answer. |
|
| Lucile le Blanc More and more people showed up. At first Lucile felt a bit happy, but again she felt confused. Matt looked like a normal guy and Lucile was a bit relieved by the fact that she wasn't the only girl. But the other guy… "Peasants?" Lucile repeated as if she doubted what she had listened. "What did you mean?" The situation was too unreal. Maboroshi Maboroshi watched the group of people from afar and counted them, in a low voice: "1, 2, 3....6" Being he had yet to realize how to interact with people, all he did was look at them. "There are still people missing... should I start?" He he was still thinking on irrelevant stuff, such as the number of girls and boys there were, he decided just to wait a bit more. He was nervous because he wasn't used to talking in front of such numerous group. |
| -Xenos- Xenos paused for a second, to see some happy go lucky idiot rushing towards him, screaming greetings at the top of his lungs. Not even bothering with giving the man a second glance, Xenos started walking in the opposite direction. Xenos let out a sigh, as he closed his eyes, listening to his own footsteps, hoping that person would lose interest. It was so much easier in life to go by unnoticed, attention seekers just ended up getting themselves humiliated or killed. *Star* "Oh my my Loki, I can't fool you, can I?" the girl smirked, brushing the ruffled hair from her face. "I even gave myself freckles, and everything!" she sighed, patting her face. "Oooh...meet them? No, no, I plan to join them of course!" the girl giggled, spinning in a circle. "I knew there wasn't a chance at fooling Mr.Knowledge, but like this...I can pass for a human, don't you think?" Star brought her face mere inches from his. "Which is why...I was wondering if you could do me a small little favor Loki~ <3" she whispered into his ear. "If anyone asks you about me...My name...is Rose~" she slowly retreated back from him, still with a smile on her face. "Fun right?" she gave a small giggle, clapping her hands. "I'll go randomly run into my fellow lost humans then, unless you need something from me..." she left out another small giggle. |
| ~MITSURU After hearing Matt's introduction and after seeing him better. Mitsuru thought "There is something strange about him... telling us he is single, why do we need to know that. But that's not the main problem... His face, his expression they look kinda made up, i will have him in mind. After shaking hands with Matt out of the blue a strange announcement reached their group. The red headed being was right yet again and that gave Mitsuru more reasons to chase him. Turning to face the insolence, he saw a guy around his age pointing and shouting at them and a semi hidden girl shouting at him with an embarrassed voice. "Peasants, my queen, greeting the populace... is he living in the mid ages? Ah i wont blame him, he probably lost it. And the girl seems related to him. I will resolve this reasonably" he thought. Turning to the guy with a firm voice. "Do you know its rude to talk like that to others, especially when you don't know them." Turning to The hidden girl, taking the role of her subject "O Hime-sama you can come out of your hiding, we are all human beings here so there is no need to be frightened" |

| Loki He laughed. "Wow, you're really awesome, Starry... Oh, sorry, I meant - Rose~" he grinned. "Such a nice plan. Are you going to have some fun, playing with their minds? That's what I like in you!" He pulled her cheeks slightly and smirked. "You're lucky. At least you can pretend being just a player. I have no chance for it, I have my own role." he sighed. "Do you think -that- man already joined the game? I think Mabo will appear soon..." He looks around. "Guess, I must find Mabo. After all, I also shall introduce myself properly to newbies, right?" With those words he waved his hand at Star and dissappeared just to appear on the next moment near Maboroshi. "Soooo..." he grinned. "How's everything going, Mabo? Shall we go and make all girls scream in delight?" |
|
| "Ha Ha" whimpered Minori, smiling weakly at the man bowing before her. Granted, she didn't like him suggesting she was scared, or addressing her like some sheltered princess, but she could let it slide. Right now, she needed to stop that Idiot Aleskei before he did anymore damage. Or deny any involvement and let them deal with him. Reluctantly, she steps out from her hiding spot behind the tree. "Yes Peasants, as in common folk" Aleskei replied, Tutting. "You don't even know what the word means?" Flicking his hair back in an extravagant fashion, he turns towards the male who had questioned his actions, a look of annoyance on face. "Rude? Thats laughable. How exactly is it rude for a King to address his Peasants as such?" Grinning like a madman, he spreads his arms out, making a grand spectacle of himself. He quickly checks to make sure everyones attention is directed towards him, before breaking in to a speech. "For I am Aleskei Magourov, soon to be King of all!" Grabbing Minori's arm, He forcibly yanks her towards him, wrapping his arm around her waist .A careful observer will notice a slight twitch appearing in Minori's eye. "And this fair maiden is my Quee...Urg" His sentence gets cut sort, his face contorting in pain. Minori had elbowed him in the stomach...Hard. Aleskei keels over, clutching his midriff. The blow had knocked all the air out of him. Ignoring his groans of pain, broken occassionally by gasping whispers of "You...Bitch", Minori turns towards the strangers, determined to make a proper introduction, and clear up any misunderstandings that might has occured. "Sorry about him" she apologizes "He's a bit...special. I'm Minori Yamada. Nice to meet you" |
| Stop. Calm yourself. You're an idiot. |
| *Star* "Minds...? No, no.." she shook her head, a demonic grin on her innocent looking face. "I'll be playing with their hearts..." she gently rested a finger on her lip. "Heh..." Star let out a small laugh as Loki mentioned roles, and that -man- "Really quite sad someone with so much potential follows rules, and fills roles..." she mumbled under her breath, with a sigh, as Loki left. "Now then..." Star cleared her throat as she closed her eyes. "Rose...Rose...Rose..." she muttered to herself, slowly walking forward. "Can't show a single trace of my true self, least the others suspect...Rose...it's just a name, no personality, no anything..." she sighed again, biting her lip. "I'll have to be completely clueless...I can't use any of my powers...eating marshmellows is a big no." she counted off the things she could, and couldn't do. "I would have come from the Human World..." she paused, frowning slightly. "Greece would be nice..." she bit her fingernail thinking about it for a minute. "Rose, a confused and scared girl from Greece...She's poor, looks malnourished, and more then anything...she's completely harmless..." the girl let out a small sniff, as tears began to form in her eyes. ^Rose* "Wh--where am I?" the shaky young girl muttered to herself, as she walked through the darkness. The place seemed completely unknown to her, even if in truth she could navigate the world with her eyes closed. "So alone...this world is...so lonely" she whispered to herself, feeling a cold breeze. She had to submit herself to the affects of the dream as well, for the disguise to be perfect, one had to wonder if the effort was really worth it. After so many years trapped in an endless cycle, she had finally made up her mind. Star would, without a doubt--- "Oh..." Rose let out a small whisper, as she noticed the group of humans chatting among themselves. "H--Hi..." she gripped the sides of her tattered clothing, as she slowly walked towards the group. "I---" she paused, looking down towards the ground. "My name is Rose...Do any of you know where I am?" she tried to hold her own, standing up straight as she asked the group what appeared to be a difficult question for her. Really it wasn't, the only thing that was difficult, was not bursting into laughter. All of them had their own little foolish desires. She had to be careful though, one thing was for sure, they were all being paranoid and suspicious. The obvious thing for her to do, was to act the same. "Wait.." she started backing up slightly. "You all...you aren't strange...like that red haired guy, are you!?" her voice was a mixture of enough strength where it appeared as though she was trying to act brave, while at the same time containing enough weakness that she sounded frightened. It was subconscious, she was living her role as a human; Star was far superior then any 'actor' or 'actress'. |
| Errende He tilted his head, glancing at Aleksei. The girl - Minori - called him "special". Well, as Errende thought, the man was "crazy". But the boy was to polite to say it out loud. He almost started introducing himself, when someone else caught his attention. A girl, who looked too shy and scared, and who was completely ignored by all the people here. She looks even more lost than we all are... he thought and stepped closer to the girl. He blinked in surprise when the newcomer mentioned a "red-haired guy". Did it mean that she also met that weird guy? Well, that was possible. He smiled unsure at the girl. "Umm... hello..." he said slightly nervously, he didn't want to scare her away. "I'm Errende. I'm sorry, but it looks like no one of us knows where we are and how did we get here... Ummm..." he looked down, a bit confused. "M-may I ask your name?" |
|
| Lucile le Blanc Lucile was really puzzled when she heard Aleskei's words. "He really is an idiot" she thought while she hesitated whether to slap him or not, Minori punched him and Lucile felt overjoyed and a smirk appeared on her confused face. However, suddenly a confused little girl popped up. "How many people will show up?" she asked herself. It seemed as if every time they were done introducing themselves, more people showed up, seemingly out of nowhere. "Don't be afraid" Lucile told the little girl after Errende finished talking “I’m Lucile” |
| Rachael She slowly opened her eyes.. Where was she? She looked around, Seeing a only a long dark corridor. Rubbing her eyes in disbelief, How did she get here? I was at home wasn't I? Why am I here now? Getting up slowly while brushing her long hair out of her eyes, She tried to hear for any sounds that could mean people. She strained her hearing to find any trace of sound, Then She heard what seemed to be a voice. She slowly walked towards it, not sure if the owner of the voice meant an harm. When She saw the group of people, she tried to hide behind the corner to observe them... But that horribly failed, she trip and landed face-first infront of the group of people. "Owww~ That hurt." She said, rubbing her face. "Umm, Hi I guess? I'm Rachael, What about you guys? Do you happen to know where we are?" She directed her questions to no-one in particular in the group. |

| *Rose* "H--Hi Errende..." she returned a faint smile after being greeted by him. "I'm Rose...Rose Astria. Nice to meet you." she gave a small nod. She gave Lucile a small smile after being reassured by her. Kindness, it truly was a horrible weakness. If Star had tried to have such an emotion, she would have been consumed by this world long ago. Would any of them learn that lesson, or would they be consumed by their 'kindness'? "Th-thank you." Star took the Overcoat from Matt, putting it over her ragged clothing. "You're...really nice Mister." she gave him a small giggle, with her childish smile. She had successfully blended in with the humans, as a pathetically frail young girl; more then that, she also had a rather nifty overcoat now too. All in all, things were going great. Star gave a small wave to those who had yet to introduce themselves to her, the game or whatever they wanted to call it, would be starting soon. |
| Nicholas M. Damoore. Bewilderment, astonishment, shock – there are so many words to describe the emotions that spun around Nick’s head, when he saw this mysterious melancholic young man walk away from him. Indeed, he had been ignored. He had been turned down flat. That sad look in the distant man’s eyes had completely rejected him. Most people would probably give up in trying talking with that lonely man. They’d probably think it’s pointless to initiate a talk with someone, who isn’t interested in talking to begin with. What’s more, being it is Dreamland what we’re talking about, there was a high percent of probabilities the figure Nicholas had discerned through the dark fog, was nothing but another illusion – and there was not point in talking to the faint figure of a will-o’-the-wisp, which would vanish into thin air, if it hadn’t taken a solid shape yet. Nonetheless, Nicholas did not falter. Not a single trace of doubt flickered across his face. He always had this resolute attitude, when he made up his mind about something. And, in spite of the failed attempt of interacting with this evasive and enigmatic individual, a scornful leer glinted across his face. “Ooh~! What’s up, man? You’re so quiet…” he chuckled, while he swung towards him and all of a sudden, clutch his the young man’s arm “You’re lost in here, right? That must be why you have such a long face, haha! Let me show you the way…” While he talked, Nicholas looked absolutely affable and friendly. He wanted this pitiful being to warm up to him, somehow, so he showed to him the most dazzling grin he could pull out. He knew the young man would erase that streak of agony he had on his face, eventually – he just needed to find out how to do so, though. Keeping this objective in his mind, he decided he just needed to find out where the rest of the players were and join them. Nicholas assumed joining a bigger group would make the whole process of interacting with him easier. Therefore, he continued walking, seemingly aimlessly, in search of the others, whom he looked forward to meet. Nevertheless, everyone would have noticed there was something weird about Nicholas, as he casually strolled around this weird dimension. He seemed really used to it. As if it was just a dream. As if it was something absolutely ordinary for him. And finally, they found their way towards the rest of the group. A never ending corridor, lined up with glossy windows on the walls, and the high, distant ceiling – as they walked, they found themselves in this place. But that was not all there was to it. Nicholas had spotted a group of people – a beautiful young woman, a small candid-looking child, a couple (which seemed to be in a love quarrel or something), an extroverted Asian guy, a young man with a smirk on his face, a clumsy but somehow cute girl and a whiny, innocent-looking boy. “Oh, but if it’s a rabble already!” he laughed, as he approached the crowd. He was laughing, indeed. He was scoffing. The pawns had already been placed, after all. Now the game would finally be about to kick off. |
| ~MITSURU~ Seeing all of them staying, chit chatting and doing nothing, as if they were in an amusement park, Mitsuru felt little annoyed. "Don't they get their situation" he thought. He completely ignored the crazy "I am a future king" guy and his so called queen, the new girl seemed really harmless so he went to greet her with a warm smile on his face. "Hello Rose, my name is Mitsuru and don't worry i will find a way out of here" He said confidently to calm her as much as possible... He really couldn't watch a sad girl, that was probably one of his last dying emotions. A lazy thought ran through his head. "Ah i will just let them enjoy themselves, it doesn't hurt to rest once in a while" |

| Maboroshii “You know better than me… how everything’s going… don’t you? Loki?” He replied in an idle tone. “Looks like we’d better start …. Huh? He's already here....” Maboroshii was nervous but none of his nervousness was display on his expressionless face; he couldn’t stop wondering what each person would see in him. Not having a face of his own, he just reflected people’s hearts. On him, people saw whoever it was they wanted to see the most. He continued to wonder while he gave a step forward showing up in front of the big group of people and cleared his throat. He needed to get everyone’s attention even though he didn’t like being watched by so many people all at the same time. “Welcome to Dreamland” He said in a clear voice without looking to the players faces. He didn’t want to see their expressions of surprise. But he felt a bit relieved; He had already said what he has been rehearsing all this time. Just to be sure Players have heard him properly he repeated once more: “Welcome to Dreamland” He did a small pause to take a deep breath and then continued. “First of all, nice to meet you …I suppose…emm… my name is Maboroshii…I’m sort of a guide… you can call me Mabo” his gaze was stuck on the ground as he talked. “Well... this is Dreamland… this is a dream… an illusion…just a dream…That’s why… even if you all came from different parts of the world and speak different languages you can understand each other…” He sat on the floor and he peeked at the players’ faces. Maboroshii needed to explain things a little better. “I mean…” he opened his mouth again “You’re all trapped in dreamland… emm… what I’m trying to say… is that… emm… you’re all in coma in the ‘real’ world … and… well... please don't think of me as an enemy... It wasn't me who invented the rules...” Maboroshii was now looking at the high ceiling. He let out a small sigh before adding more word to his speech. “The only way to wake up... is to find the ‘the heart of the dream’ which is capable of controlling dreamland…but… only one of you would be able to leave…" he understood that what he was saying was not nice but it was his role "well…I suppose that’s what you’ll call the main rules…” He knew all players would be confused or rather angry at what he just said that’s why Maboroshii’s gaze fell to the ground once more. “Ok…one last thing… for more information… There’s Loki who is an informant… you can ask him…Loki the red haired one” Having said this, he raised his head and finally looked at the players eyes. “Good luck” |

| ~MITSURU~ Thinking about this world and his next move Mitsuru suddenly spotted a new figure. He raised his head to see him better but at the same moment he froze by seeing his dead father coming his way. "What sort of sick joke is this?" He thought. He was way past his parent's death so something like this wouldn't effect him THAT much. Just about when he tried to talk to him, the creature started explaining, the rules of this world. Mitsuru thought the best thing to do is to listen although his father's appearance made him feel little uneasy and less concentrated. After Moboroshi's explanation and matt's silly question, Mitsuru went in to deep thinking. "We are in a coma? One hearth? Only one can have it? Is he serious? Should i trust him, if yes then that means an all out war if not well... what option do i have and who's this Loki?" After some thinking he asked the creature. "So i don't suppose you show us where the hearth is even if your a guide" Firmly asked Mitsuru. "IS that hearth the only way out of this place?" He asked again. Wanting to ask a lot more but restraining himself Mitsuru awaited his answers |

| Errende He sighed. He didn't like such big crowds... with so many loud people. He really was too shy for them. So when new people came, he just took a step to the side, not wanting to bother anyone with his presense. But when another person appeared, Errende froze on his place. Because that person looked almost exactly like him, but with a shorter hair. But that wasn't him... The most possible variant... was completely impossible! The only other person who could look like himself was his un-born twin brother. But he couldn't be here... When that person said that they were in a dream and that everything around them were an illusion, Errende sighed in relief. It was really easier to believe in a creepy Dreamland, than in his suddenly alive brother. But than that red-haired guy appeared again, grinning widely. So that was Loki, huh? Loki He appeared from the thin air near Mabo and waved his hand, grinning. "Hi there, cuties~ How're all of you doing? I'm here, so let's have some fun!" he winked at them, than puts his hands on his hips and tilted his head. "Well~ As that guy said..." he pointed at Mabo. "... I'm Loki, The Informator. If you'll want to know something - just ask me. But," he made a pause "you'll need to pay for information. The price is a tiny piece of your soul, you won't die because of it. But if you'll make too many deals with me - your soul will fade and you'll become a part of the dream..." He laughed. "Well, not that it's so bad. Dreamland is a nice place... for those who was born here." He suddenly walked closer to Minori. "Hello, Minori-chan~" he said happily. "Why won't you kick away Aleks and come with me?" He grins at everyone. "Yup. I'm The Informator. And I knows everything about everyone~" he turned to Aleksei. "I know every one of all your dirty secrets. Every one of your dreams and fears." he walked back to Mabo. "So don't make me angry. Or I'll reveal your secrets to everyone here~" He laughs again. "So, let's see..." he bite his lower lip for a second. "There's a nice good tradition. I can answer one question for free while you're still newbies in that game. But only ONE question for all of you. So choose it carefully. Besides, it shan't be too important question. Of course I won't answer to -Where is the Heart?- or -How the hell can we get out of here?- questions for free." He yawned and sat on the floor. "I'm giving you some time to think, but I won't wait forever~" |

| -Xenos- This happy go lucky guy simply took it upon himself to drag Xenos around like some sort of lost puppy. Xenos gritted his teeth, trying to contain his emotions, as the man skipped happily through the abyss, leading them to some group of people. Idiot conversations about dreams, truths, hearts, and deals, that's what the stupid man had lead Xenos into. “Oh, but if it’s a rabble already..." Xenos mocked the Man's happy go lucky comment, as he approached from behind. Xenos pushed the man over, hoping to see him fall ungracefully to the ground. Maybe even breaking his jaw, that would serve him right. "Oh...Hi." Xenos took the time to finally realize the other people around him. All of the people were unknown to him, except for one. Lucile...He remembered meeting her before, though that was a long time ago. Xenos changed his attention to Loki, who was rambling on about questions. "Does it take effort to sound so annoying, or is it some kind of natural talent?" Xenos asked the only question on his mind. |
| Loki His eyes widened in slight shock at the question, which that moody guy asked him... but than Loki jumped on his feet and laughed happily. "I CAN'T BELIEVE IT, IT REALLY HAPPENED!!!" He was laughing so hard, that soon felt slight pain in his stomack and stopped, breathing heavily and still chuckling slightly. "Are you stupid or something, man?" he grinned. "It's a talent, of course~ Aaaaaaaand... congratulations!" He claps his hands several times than turned to everyone. "For those who didn't understand what happened: that guy..." he points his finger at Xenos. "That guy just used your one and only free hint for a stupid question~ <3 You may thank him now! I'm sure, he'll be happy!" He turned his back to the crowd and winked to Nick. "Soooo... from now on all replies I'll give only for pieces of your souls," he yawned. "But I'm leaving now... Feel free to call me when you'll have some questions. I will gladly answer on them!" So he grabbed Mabo by the collar on his shirt - and they both dissappeared, leaving everyone puzzled. |
|
| ~MITSURU~ Amazed by this newcomer's stupidity Mitsuru started laughing at himself for being so hesitant and letting this moron take the free question. After finally realizing these creatures were telling the truth he got serious! It was time for him to start playing by his own rules. Taking advantage of the situation he started speaking laud and clear so everyone could hear him. "Ok you all saw what just happened. Tho it is not his fault for the lack of information but his foolishness robbed us from our right to know something about this place. I mean he could have just listened or asked, he didn't had to rush and anger the creature. Why should we be the screwed ones?" After turning his attention to the newcomer with a firm look in his eyes he said "Hey you, the guy with the umbrella. Tho i am not the one to talk but learn to control this temper of yours, because of it, we lost a something free and i doubt we will be getting anything free around here. I think you should take some responsibility about it or at least apologize." He could care less if the guy apologizes but if he uses some of his soul a good amount of information can be leaked. "Let them feast on that for a while" he thought and a dark plot started to construct in his mind. |

| Errende He looked worriedly at Mitsuru, than at the guy who used their one and only free hint. He didn't like the atmosphere. Everyone were glaring at that guy. But he didn't do it on purpose, did he? So Errende took a deep breathe and stepped closer to Mitsuru. "P-please, don't fight... It's not the place and time to make a quarrel!" he looked down for a second, than turned to everyone. "W-wouldn't it be better if we'll try to cooperate and find 'the heart' together? I mean... all of us are lost... and..." he paused, trying to gather his thoughts, than shook his head and looked at everyone almost hopelessly. "I-I'm sorry... I just think that we can try to find it together... and than try to find a way to use it to get out of here all, but not only one... It won't be nice... to leave anyone here... will it?" last words he mumbled almost inaudiable, looking down and blushing slightly. |
|
| Errende He almost jumped when the guy - Matt? - yelled at arguing guys. That was really unexpected. "Y-ye..." he blinked when Matt touched his hair and whispered to him those weird words. Why must he do it? And besides... "It's 'Errende'..." he said softly, trying to hide his flushed face behind his bangs. "...not a 'shy boy'..." |
