Wow.
Um, hi.
So... Silas is busy right now. He's just, like, got stuff to do. He told me to give you guys the next few questions. So, like, here I am, to...
Sorry. I'm sorry. I guess I'm kinda nervous. All you folks paying attention to what I've got to say. Heh. I've never been famous before. I've only killed, like, four people. My ultimate aim is to kill 85 people, because then my bodycount will be in the 80s, which is, like, my favourite year for movies.
Silas wanted me to give you these clues all relating to serial killer movies, but I don't like them. I know, technically, I am one, and obviously I'm one of Silas's followers, but... but those movies scare me. So I've changed it, a little, and now all these clues are from 80's movies. Yay! So, uh, I'll begin before Silas comes back and figures out what I'm doing.
First of all, I want you to figure out how many letters in the thing that Goonies never say. Then I want you to multiply that by the year Marty McFly travels back to.
Got that? Good.
Now divide that by the number of letters in the place E.T. assured Elliott he will be.
"Elliottttt..." man, that movie made me cry.
Anyway, once you've done that, subtract the number of candles that Molly Ringwald had to deal with. With me so far? Keep that total.
Now get the difference between the year that we watched Darth Vader tell Luke the truth about his lineage, and the year the Lost Boys slept all day and partied all night. Divide that difference into your total, which brings you to a new total.
Clear? Good.
Now you're gonna have to multiply something. First number is the amount of Ghostbusters there were before they started hiring. The second number... heh. The new Star Trek film has an actor playing Khan with a ridiculously long name. But how many letters in the name of the actor who ORIGINALLY played him? When you have it, multiply those two numbers, and subtract from your total.
Now I want you to find out how many Krptonian criminals turned up to face Christopher Reeve's Superman, how many rules you have to obey if you want to own a Mogwai, and how many times you must say Beetlejuice's name if you want him to appear. Then multiply all those together, and subtract from your total once more.
Oh this is FUN.
How many letters in the missing word: "Bueller? Bueller? ____?"
Subtract it from your total.
How much time has passed for Indiana Jones between Temple of Doom and the Last Crusade? Add this number to what Daryl Hannah was in Splash, and subtract from your total.
And what you get, is the next number.

((Star: Amazingly enough, staring at computers doesn't help headaches get better . . . -_-
Might go, sorry. :/ My head hurts.))
That is what he said. And then he went skydiving without a parachute.
Chi's coming as well, Viv.
As I said. Try it with me and i will slit your throat. Ask anyone.
*chuckles at Dragona's story*
I too have had my bad experiences with vampires in the past.
*right eye twitches*
*turns away and heads deep into the woods*
Follow me.
Hunter: I could actually survive skydiving without a parachute.
I'm rather glad I'm NOT a vampire.
*takes a deep breath*
*brushes off coat*
*sets hat at a jaunty angle*
*and follows Vivanus*
*smirks at Claras words*
Hunter: *follows Viv*
*Pulls up his hood and sheaths his weapons, taking off after Viv with a bit of a spring to his step*
*follows Vivanus, with his katanas in his hands*
Ok, now before you ask... No I'm not a guide, yes I've been in these woods before, no that mushroom isn't edible, yes there are snakes, and my favorite color is chrome.
*takes a knife out of his belt, sticks it in the ground and listens*
*heads a bit west*
*focuses back on her sigils*
*they'll be done soooooooon*
*and then it can begin*
*well after shes had a rest*
*swallows grimly*
*follows Vivanus*
*stepping over the branches*
*twirling the penknife in my hand*
*trying to appear more confident than I am*
Chrome isn't a colour. Chrome is a material or an internet browser. Chrome is the colour of the light reflecting from the chrome material, which is a mixture of blue and silver. Sorry. *shrugs*
I like snakes. *nods*
*gets up, leaving her wooden creations at the base of the tree and puts her knife back in her bag*
*follows everyone else, arms crossed*
Dragona.
Dragona.
Dragona.
Shh.
Hunter: *the woods is rather beautiful, when you think about it* *his eyes widen as he looks around, imagining all the things that might happen here on a daily basis without anyone ever realising*
((If my battery dies, carry on without me, pretend I disappeared))
*eyes widen in wonder as I imagine all the diseases that I might catch in this wilderness*
*snatches a stick from the ground and whittles the tip into a 'Y'*
*hands the stick to Dragona*
You'll be our snake catcher then.
*smiles and lays a hand against the now completed sigils*
*they light up, as do the ones on the next tree, and the next one, and the next one, and every other tree in the forest*
*energy starts being drained from anything within the trees, flowing to her*
Who here can sing?
Sure. *sheaths one of his katanas and takes the stick*
*meekly hopes not to be noticed by Vivanus*
*focuses on not tripping over a tree root*
So I'm sure more people than just me are wondering this, but what exactly are we doing out here on this grand adventure of ours?
I can sing, but if I do it'll just be Frozen songs.
I can't sing for shit, I'll be honest.
*this includes the trees that Viv, Hunter, Dragona, Clara, Blake and Chi are near*
*meaning their energy starts being drained as well*
I dunno. Let's build a town here. Out in the woods. Stick forts and all that.
*grimaces*
What's that?
A town made out of stick forts?
*inexplicably*
*limbs begin to grow a little heavier*
*continues to forge on through the trees*
*smiles as the energy flows into her*
*it works*
*that's good*
*ignored the draining*
Yes, let's make our own civilization.
We have a snake hunter...who wants to be our food gatherer?
And who will help me build a house?
*stops*
*leans heavily on a tree*
I . . .
*feels a little dizzy*
*shakes head violently*
*doesn't want to lose face in front of the company*
*continues to follow, much more slowly, after Vivanus*
*smiles* I'll gather food.
Hunter: *doesn't mention about singing*
*scowls at Silente* May you please stop that? Do you WANT to kill the trees?
*concentrates for the moment, then ppulls teh energy the other way, into him* *then has no idea how to get it back into the trees so lets it go again*
I . . . I'm not much good with construction and building things.
Hunter: I'll do whatever you want me to do.
Within reason.
((Star: Bbs, dinner.))
Ok, Chi.
Clara? You ok?
Blake, look for some good timber.
((Hunter you're not meant to know what sil's doing...))
(Hunter Sil isn't with you. She didn't follow. Shes far away. And the energy is being drained from you not the trees)
Hunter could you look for a good clearing?
*waves a dismissive hand*
Yes yes, of course.
*cough*
I'm quite alright, Vivanus. Let it never be said that a brisk evening's walk was too much for my constitution.
*takes a deep breath*
So, what may I do to help?
*taps a different sigil on the tree and the draining amplifies, doubling almost*
*grins*
Clara you could help me find food, if you want?
Could you help hunter look for a clearing?
I would rather stick to the house I built with my wife months ago, there's no point in building a civilization when we already have one.
... You've taken us into the woods to build a fort? How old are you, four?
I don't know.
*blinks as black spots dance in front of him*
What the!
*strained grin*
Yes, of course I'll help Hunter find a clearing . . .
*tilts head at Hunter*
*gesturing to the South*
You really don't have a sense of adventure, honey.
I'm going back. *walks away from the group in the direction that they came from*
*starts panting*
*begins to walk deeper into the forest*
*looking for a clearing*
*barely gets five feet away before stars begin to swirl in my vision*
*sways on my feet*
Ah . . . ah . . .
*leans heavily on tree*
*wipes sweat off forehead*
An adventure has a point... this is a kids' game
*Stumbles a bit as he walks from the clearing*
Huh, I must need some more rest or something...
No Dragona I am not. I'm not talking about a fort, I mean a town. Of course if it's too hard for you...
Blake, could you make more weapons then?
*closes her eyes, enjoying the extra energy*
*not just from her friends but from the animals too*
*sees a snake die in front of him* *begins to get tired, but still walks back to Blogland*
Dang it....they didn't even wait until I told them there were zombies here.
*struggles back to the group*
Good news, there's a clearing just a a handful of yards to the-
*trips on a tree root*
*lands on face*
*groans*
*pushes self up on elbows*
. . . South.
Ooooo I love killing zombies!
Ok guys, I lied. The fort was just a distraction. I wanted you all unaware when the zombies came.
Zombies?
*grimaces*
*looks down at penknife*
I . . . I've never fought zombies before.
*grows very, very homesick for the Hotel*
*Leans on a tree, doubling over. As he looks up he notices a glowing mark on the tree, upon searching a few more he begins to worry about all the glowing marks*
Guys... you may want to take a look at this.
*runs over and helps clara up*
*frowns hearing dragona grow closer*
*activates a sigil on her arm, one she usually doesn't use cause if energy drain*
*one that makes her blend into the tree*
*leans over to help Clara up and feels his knees go weak*
What is happening?
*leans over to help Clara up and feels his knees go weak*
What is happening?
*goes over to Blake*
Sigils?
*leans heavily on Chione's shoulder*
*weakly* Thank you, Chione.
I don't know what's wrong with me. I'm so sorry. Perhaps I'm not . . . cut out for . . . adventuring . . .
*legs getting wobbly*
*has blended into a tree and cant be seen*
*takes his knife and slashes through all the sigils ge can see*
*he
It would appear so... they're everywhere. All the trees that have them are growing old and dry...
I think I can get that lumber you asked for now...
*He draws his blade, filling it with divine power, and hacks away at nearby trees until there's a nice clearing around the company*
*sits down to try and regain his strength*
I . . . no. No!
*lets go of Chione and Vivanus*
*wobbles*
I'm fine! I am quite . . . quite . . .
*doubles over and vomits*
*winces as some of the sigils get slashed at resulting in a lurch in the energy drainage*
*taps a sigil on the trunk, dimming the glow to almost nothing on all the trees*
*leans against a tree, panting heavier*
*realises that if her magic power weakens, the clone of her and the twins' cribs will melt*
*eyes grow wide*
...B-blake...
*cuts through more sigils, giving them a sigil-free zone of about 100 meters*
*feels disturbances in the air as Silente taps at the sigil*
*moves to where the disturbance came from*
I'm sorry, I want to get rid of my headache now, bye. :/
(Bye Star. Hope your headache gets better soon. :/)
((Also, for the record, Hunter can SENSE ENERGY. If someone's doing something to energy, y'know . . .
Also - sorry about the trees. Misread that part. :/))
*reaches down and takes some flint*
*starts a fire at the bottom of some of the sigil trees*
I imagine that whoever put these here will feel THAT.
This is curious...
)3"0
'3
*slumps in the middle of the clearing*
*arms wrapped around knees*
*whispers shakily* I want to go home.
I want to go home.
I want to go home.
*Falls to his knees and looks Chi in the eyes, after a moment he understands. Stumbing over to Chi he wraps his arm around her middle*
Sorry every... but we... have to go now.
*After a blinding flash, Chi and Blake are gone. They appear a moment later in the twins' room, Blake falls to the floor, unconscious*
*deactivates the sigils on the trees, cutting off any drainage*
*she'll have to find a new place to hide them*
*climbs the tree quickly before jumping from tree top to tree top and deactivating the blending sigil on her arm*
*his head swims*
*starts seeing double*
*sees Silente move* *pushes the air downwards to make him jump upwards into the trees*
Silente, what are you doing?
(Everyone*)
((And, sorry. :/ hunter would haev liked to be a part of this, and I would too, but y'know . . . I think if I just carry on acting like I haven't got a headache, then it'll just get worse. :())
*blinks slowly*
*the heavy feeling is beginning to fade*
*leaving me tired*
*so tired*
*and weak*
*flops onto back*
*stares at the leaves above*
*groans*
*stops and looks at Dragona*
Getting some exercise.
*picks up Clara and starts to drag her out of the forest*
*his body screams at the effort*
*collapses next to him, eyes on the cribs*
((And for the record, Hunter says that the only reason kids' games are for kids is because adults are too narrow-minded to understand them.))
((And I should go now. :P))
In the trees? There's something wrong with the forest. It's draining people's energy.
I . . .
*through gritted teeth*
I think I can walk . . . help me up.
*grips Vivanus's shoulder*
*shakily walks with him*
*frowns*
Doing what now?
People are getting their energy drained. And the animals. A snake died because it had its energy taken away. Have you seen anything going on?
*After a moment his eyes flutter open and he pulls himself to his feet. Dismissing the clone he sits between the cribs and rocks them gently, listening and looking closely for any signs of discomfort in the children*
*supports Clara*
*grits his teeth and pushes through it*
That's okay Straw.
*)7(/*
There . . .
*squints*
*points to the East*
*there's a little sunlight, trickling through the branches*
The edge of the forest. A little further . . .
*shakes her head*
No. I went to get some exercise, nothing seemed amis to me.
*maybe bury the sigils?*
*no they have to be alive*
*grass?*
*way to small*
*underground tree roots?*
*a lot of hassle but a possibility*
((Ok guys I might have to go. I'm going to need to provide emergency care since the wind knocked over one of my bonsai))
There's something going on. We should go and try and get everyone out of there.
*gets her to the edge then collapses*
*gets her to the edge then collapses*

(NOT A BONSAI EMERGENCY
OH NO
OH NO
THIS IS SERIOUS
YOU RUN LIKE THE WIND BOY
RUN AND SAVE THAT BONSAI
I BELIEVE IN YOU)
((Got to go))
((Got to go))
You want to get everyone out of the forest?
*higher the radius*
*it needs to effect the clearing*
*not the trees though*
*fix that*
(BYE VIV!!!)
*drags self forward, out of the forest*
*lies panting in the sun*
*magic slowly seeping back into my blood*
*warming my limbs and setting sparks crackling in my hair*
*deep, deep breath*
*exhales*
*crawls to Vivanus to make sure he's okay*
Yes. We need to help them.
*points at Clara*
She's out.
*closes her eyes and follows her blood ties*
Chi is out. So is Viv.
*opens her eyes*
Seems people are safe.
*lies next to Vivanus*
*rubbing my limbs to get the magic back in them*
*snaps fingers*
*there's a spark*
. . . all right.
*sits up*
*brushes self off*
*looks down at Vivanus and wonders what to do*
:/ Okay..
(*slides in quietly*
Might be watching/reading the RP.
Because it's cold and having to make decisions about my future upsets me-
But I can't keep procrastinating it-
And I have ten days left to make a decision-
But I just-
UGH. )
(Greetings, Taia!)
*shrugs and jumps down to Clara*
Hey. Have fun?
*she'll do it tomorrow*
*yey, a day of digging and drawing*
I'm sorry to hear that, Taia
(Hey Tai-Tai)
*yelps in shock*
*scrambles backwards*
Silente! Where on earth-
*looks up*
Goodness! Don't surprise me like that.
*brushes self off*
*wonders how much dry-cleaning this coat is going to need*
Where were you? Why did you stay behind?
Not that I'll blame you. Our adventure was a bit of a disaster.
Sorry! Didn't mean to scare you! Need a hand up?
*offers a hand*
I stayed back to her some exercise and have some thinking time. What happened?
(**get)
Its cold and I'm sitting down somewhere in Georgia, okay I'm down in the bloody south.
Oh so we were in South Carolina and I look: There's a Confederate flag flying. I guess they never really did get over the Civil War....
-Zaf
*slowly gets up and joins Blake in the middle of the cribs*
I know what happened.
(hey Zaf)
*waves the hand away*
*stands up by myself*
*a little wobbly, though*
I'm not entirely sure. Dragona and Viv here determined that they were sigils, placed on the trees throughout. They drained us of our magical potential.
It was awful. And my peacoat is ruined.
*Once he's sure the twins are safe and sound, he allows the clone to look over them again*
Those were sigils for sure... only person who uses them is...
*A flash of golden light and he's gone, appearing beside Clara a moment later*
Clara have you se-
Silente. Explain yourself.
Magical potential?
*defo hide the sigils on roots*
Sigils?
*watches her incase she needs support*
What?
EEP!
*grits teeth*
*punches Blake lightly on the arm*
DON'T DO THAT.
(Hello, Annika!
Hey, Quiete!
*hugs Adra* I figure I'll probably survive. :) How are you getting on with your school workload? )
*face slackens*
Blake? What do you mean?
*looks from Blake to Silente*
*frowns in confusion*
Not so well, Taia... Today's been a rather... Anticlimactic day, actually. It keeps disappointing me, you know? :( And Aretha's really busy, bless her, but... Yeah :/
(@Tai-Tai hmm. i like the niclname. Quiete.)
looks at Blake*
Explain what?
I'm dedicating this page to my chinese elm bonsai that fell off the wall in the wind. Hopefully I saved her. I tried my best.
(hear hear)
(HEAVENS TO BETSY I HOPE THAT BONSAI IS OKAY.
PLEASE TELL ME THE BONSAI IS OKAY.
I TOO HAVE A BONSAI ON MY SHELF.
SOME OF MY BEST FRIENDS ARE BONSAIS.
PLEASE SAVE THAT BONSAI.)
Those were sigils on the trees that sapped our power, you're the only person in Bogland who uses sigils
*He draws his blade and points it at her throat*
So I'll say it again, explain yourself.
(We can't hear hear. It's Quiete.
*ba-dum TISH*)
*curses Blake for not taking her*
*stands on the window ledge and jumps out, wings flaring out behind her*
*flies to where Blake, Silente and clara are*
*lands heavily ontop of Silente*
*looks wide-eyed at Silente*
Is this true? Is what Blake's saying true?
I can't . . .
*stops speaking*
*as I realize I'm not at all surprised*
Wow wow wow!
*glares at Blake*
Sigils are NOT uncommon! You cant blame me anytime some show up!
EEP!
Chione! Goodness!
So many jumpscares!
*looks at Blake*
*looks at Silente*
*looks at Chione*
*backs away slowly*
(I tried but I had to put her in a smaller pot and trim down her root ball which you should never do in the summer))
Oof!
*winces as Chi squashes her*
*pushes her off*
You're getting worse at landing.
*grabs Silente's throat and pushes her against one of the trees*
How DARE YOU!!!!!
YOU COULD HAVE GOT THE TWINS HURT!
(You are lying right next to us, Vivanus, if you would like to rejoin.)
Then do tell who would have the energy or speed to write complex sigils on every tree in the forest before we all set out. Who else knows the forest that well, and who else here uses sigils?
*His eyes narrow and his sword begins to glow*
*grits teeth*
*the penknife weighs heavy in my pocket*
*fresh magic is skittering between my fingers*
*I'm itching to throw some energy*
*gags and winces at Chi*
*grabs her wrist and moves to her tiptoes so she can breathe*
*coughs*
(@Adra: Aw. I know what you mean - I think it's been a similar kind of day for me, too. :/
I hope it eases up for both of you soon. :/
@Silente: I'm glad. :) It's also easier for me without having to fuss with the L. :P
Nice dedication, Vivanus. I wanted to grow bonsai, but was rejected. :P I still like the idea, though. :)
@Annika: I think that joke just cheered me up significantly. Thanks. xD )
*pries Chi's hand away so she can answer*
Not me! That's who!
My tree that I was sitting in Silente. I saw you. I saw you drawing the sigils on the trees. You really should have been more careful. I really want to kill you... The twins could have fell and started crying or got cuts and bruises. Maybe you aren't the best carer for them.
*throws her across the clearing*
Blake, you can take it from here.
*quietly observes*
Though I will say, Taia, I did finish the rest of my APUSH homework. All I have left are a few readings for AP Psych, and since I have Honors Brit Lit second semester, I don't have to have Pride and Prejudice and the Tempest finished until the end of winter break, in January.
So all in all, that whole ordeal is clean.
I really hope my Shakespeare class reads the Tempest... Then I'll be square on that book by the time I get to lit
*hugs Taia* I'm sorry, then :(
*winces as she crashes to the ground*
Calm down! I didn't DO anything!
You are no longer my sister, or their aunt.
Blake, do what you want with her. I'm going home to my children.
*flies back up into the sky and home*
It's just that everything hurts..
(I got to see The Tempest performed last year. It was a real treat.)
Gladly.
*He walks slowly towards Silente, sword swishing through the air at seemingly random points leaving a trail of light as they go. He moves both hands to his swords' hilt and thrusts it into the ground, the trail of light suddenly becomes clear as a magic circle which fires golden chains at Silente*
*winces and opens his eyes*
*stands up*
*watches Chi wide eyed*
Chi!
*taps the sigils at her collar and launches into the air after her*
Come back!
Wait, Sil.
*turns to Clara*
What just happened?
*growls as the chains catch her midflight*
CHI!
*struggles against them*
*He takes the end of the chains in his left hand and yanks downwards on them*
Get back here, fiend. I am far from finished with you.
*shoves Blake*
You should talk. A fiend. Really?
*sits down next to Vivanus*
*wishes I had some popcorn to devour while I watch the proceedings*
. . . It was Silente. Silente was responsible for the sigils.
Chione gave her a verbal bitch-slap and ran off, and now Blake is out for her blood.
*is yanked back in the air*
Chi please wait!
*is still struggling against the chains, wings flapping desperately*
*nods at Clara*
I see. Blake, don't hurt her. Let her explain first. You touch her before then snd you have me to deal with.
Vivanus, if you had been paying attention you would know that it was Silente who wrote those sigils that drained our power. She could very well have killed us and harmed my children. If you take her side I will see you as an enemy as well.
*He whips the chains to the ground, trying to bring Silente crashing down with them*
*growls at Blake*
Let her explain first.
*melts her wings as she gets to the house*
*walks upstairs and stands next to the twins' cribs*
He means it, Vivanus. Blake is, as a dear friend of mine would put it, a force of nature.
Just consider me an irrelevant observer.
*plays with a tendril of energy in my hands*
*screams as she falls, hitting the ground heavily*
No! CHI!
*struggles to her feet, trying to run against the chains after Chi*
@Clara: yes, Blake could easily demolish me. But not what comes after me.
(Back.
There's only one cure to going out in the wind and the rain.
Alcoholic ginger beer.)
I tried that, she denied any involvement.
*He dashes at Silente, keeping a firm hold on the chains as he slashes wildly at her limbs*
(And Back To The Future. That's also part of it.)
*shivers*
Blogland. So full of dark sorcerers with darker secrets.
*plays with the tendril of energy*
I wonder . . . I wonder . . .
CHI!
*turns and narrowly avoids Blakes swings*
LET ME GO!
(Amen to that, Dragona Pine.)
*takes the blows meant for Sil*
Let. Her. Explain.
