THE EVENT HORIZON

[inferis]

[Congratulations, you have awoken on the Event Horizon. The ship is large and empty of life, except for the residents themselves. Now is the time to explore your new surroundings. Gosh it sure is creepy and quiet.]

AROUND THE SHIP

[inferis]

[Everywhere is empty and silent. Some rooms in the ship are decorated with blood and gore. Wander around, find your friends, wonder where the hell you are]

[wagers]

[Peeking into a room........ It actually looks like something she'd see back home, not even going to lie.]

Well, this sure is pleasant!

[tapshoetomove]

Hello? Is anyone there?

[Luckily Luke hasn't stumbled on the bloody rooms yet. He's still pacing the halls and looking disoriented, at least until he finds a window to look out of.]

Whoa...where are we?!

[cloaklikeblood]

[This was different and it put Ruby on edge. It took her a few seconds to realize that her senses were dulled. She sniffed, but could only smell a general scent. Her strong senses were gone. Fear shot through her as she began to wander]

Hello? August? Henry?

[She peeks into a room and instantly jerks back, hand over her mouth]

[onlythefishiest]

[There's someone walking around in a shadowy corridor, carrying a large double-ended trident. It isn't talking much, whoever it is.]

[wolf_of_war]

[His AR Mode mask on, Bladewolf is silently stalking the halls, mapping every corner of the ship he can reach, and scanning for life-forms of any kind. He won't speak unless spoken to, as he's rather invested in reconnaissance at thee moment. Feel free to get curious about, or freak out about the large, rather intimidating-looking robo-wolf that's wandering around.]

[3nterprising]

[Faye is not happy right now. A month ago they were in some dumb ship with ugly silver jumpsuits, but this ship gives off a far more ominous feeling. It's eerily quiet, and so far she hasn't seen a single person so far. Not to mention stumbling into a room or two wit the bloody decor had her feeling extremely on edge.]

Hello? Anyone? Someone I know preferably...

[There was a reason she didn't like movies that started out this way...]

[thehangedrose]

[Garry does not like this. Not one bit. He goes around, trying his best to figure out what's going on, keeping his rose safe inside his coat in the meantime.]

[When he finds one of those nicely decorated rooms, though, he does what he does best:]

[Let out the girliest of shrieks, of course.]

HHHHHYYYYYYEEEEEK!

[And he quickly rushes the other way, face pale and full of fear. Things haven't even started yet and he's already scared out of his wits.]

[originalcopy]

What the...?

Euch... right, exactly what I needed right now.

[Church is going to wander around, see if he can find people and/or figure out what the hell is going on.]

[panicswitched]

[ she's starting to really dislike the idea of not having her cabal-given abilities and that idea is starting to really freak her out. so instead of dealing with it, she's ignoring it, a magnus specialty. for the moment, she's wandering and can be found near random rooms. she doesn't seem to be too upset by anything she sees, though her lips are turned upwards in distaste. ]

Well this looks great.

[wilder]

[Zelos is wandering around as he's adjusting being without powers again, which of course leads him to peek into one of the rooms and...]

Whoa.

[covering his mouth]

That is not good.

[honeytoes]

[Gary will just be wandering the corridors looking very cautious.

He's not scared but this place looks quite similar to the facility...during the monster purge.

Thanks castle...or whoever the fuck is doing this.]

[deltacain]

[Bursting out one of the rooms is the tall figure of one David Webb.

He's coated in blood and backs against the wall, panting, staring at the room as the doors close again.]

Wh... What the hell?!

[Looks like someone woke up in one of the gore rooms.]

[ensorceler]

[ Great, just great, another dream, and this one is worse. But she can feel her journal in the pocket of her skirts, so Anne is just trying to find a small out of the way area that doesn't look absolutely disgusting and horrifying before she'll feel comfortable writing in it.

So you may catch her wandering, looking as apprehensive as someone probably should walking by walls covered in blood. Maybe she'll run into someone she knows before she even has to make an entry. ]

[not_nikkiheat]

[Kate is not thrilled about waking up in an unfamiliar place, and once she walks around the place a bit, she realizes with dread that it's happened again.]

We're in space AGAIN?

Re: AROUND THE SHIP

[sinsoftheblaze]

[the blood on the walls doesn't particularly bother Dextera all that much - it reminds him of home if he had to be honest and that was strangely comforting to him.

the mute knew what to expect, even if he had no idea what they were on.

but for now he instead reaches up to the bloody walls and touches them all in turn as he explores. it's fairly messy and probably kind of weird for anyone who comes across him, but there's a reason for it. Dextera wanted his senses used to this place, after all.]

[nothingtobelieve]

[Vicious had been on a lot of ships. Not all of them had been this big, and none of them had displayed quite the same design sense. The Van liked their interiors high-end and traditional. This, however, suited his design sense, though he would have had the good taste to clean up after a bloodbath on the order of whatever had happened here. If it was meant to scare him, though, it wasn't doing a very good job.]

I'm not impressed.

[He had to assume this was another of the castle's tricks, though if it was, he doubted it really cared about his opinion]

[gentleidealist]

[Lloyd is on edge. He hasn't lost his powers outside of an expedition to the Dead Zone in a long time. Longer than he can remember. He explores with no small amount of caution, wanting to make sure there's nothing bad that's going to jump him. He's thankfully armed with his swords, though they're heavier than usual, and not enchanted like they should be.]

Even Welgaia had more life than this.

[unstitched]

[He doesn't like this. He absolutely does not like this one bit. This place, whatever it is, is definitely the antithesis of the castle: cold, dark, barren, foreboding... it almost reminds him of home, but somehow it's worse than that. At least home was familiar in its emptiness, which stretched on forever; here, he feels increasingly confined by the grisly, metallic walls. 5 walks tepidly down an empty hallway, his eye darting around frantically for any signs of life.]

Hello? What's going on? Somebody, please, speak up if you're there!

I'm not alone. I can't be alone...

[scinlae]

[ She was angry at first; her magic was taken from her again as it has been so many times before. But her anger does not sustain for long, the emptiness of the ship unnerves her, the silence makes her stomach churn, and the blood?

She has seen such things before, in her dreams as result of battle, but the blood and gore decorating some of the walls makes her pale and her hands tremble. Not because of the scenery itself...

But because of the promise they hold.

She wanders as if in a daze, feet moving while her mind spins. They have to get out, she knows she knows, they have to leave before it is too late. Goddess, she mutters, protect us. ]

[secondchances]

[Okay. This is new. New, and gross. Steph covers her mouth as she wanders from room to room. What kind of screwed up horror flick was this?]

Cass? Tim?

[Roommates first. Sounds like a plan.]

Anybody home? And please don't be those alien bug guys...

MEDICAL

[inferis]

[This room in the ship looks brand new, metal gleams and shines, the best medical technology money can buy standing around, unused. It looks like no one has ever even stepped foot in here since it was made]

[heal_theworld]

[Martel had woken up in Medical. She honestly wasn't even surprised anymore, since it was obvious the castle had put them...wherever this was. Of course, all those shiny metal instruments had set her on edge. especially the ones with sharp edges that should not come anywhere near a body, in her opinion. Add in the fact her powers were gone and there was a sort of eerie quiet around here... She was vaguely unsettled.

She was carefully poking around in there, trying to find some clue to anything. Or anybody else here.]

Hello...? Is anyone there? Say something if you can hear me.

THE TUNNEL

[inferis]

[Some of you might come across a tunnel, with turning, sharp sides. It looks a like meat grinder. At least there's a walkway, if you wish to see what's on the other side...]

Re: THE TUNNEL

[kryptonian]

[Kara stands in this tunnel, one hand on the railing and the other trailing at her side. Spaceships are not new to her, and she has spent the majority of her chronological life inside one. All others, however, stand in stark contrast to this nightmare vessel. This ship doesn't look like it takes any prisoners, especially with this meat grinder tunnel.

Deep inside her, she can feel the hum of her powers, deep inside her but outside of reach. Wherever they are, they are too far beyond any yellow sun's reach, where the sun cannot even thaw frozen planets, let alone grant her wondrous powers.

And here they are, with worse likely to come.]

THE GRAVITY CORE

[inferis]

[The tunnel opens up into a big, circular, spiked room. There's a pool of water on the bottom of the room, and in the center is a strange contraption, a ball with three spiked rings, about 10 meters in diameter. For now, they're just turning around one another, never stopping. This is the Gravity Core, the very heart of the ship. Not that you guys know that]

[onlyanapple]

[Crowley has got to this...thing. He's standing on the walkway, staring up at it, a frown forming on his face. He may not have his powers right now, but he knows something is up with that thing. And it's not a good something]

[rose_of_battle]

[The room Sheena wakes up in is free of the added bloody decorations on the walls, and she spends a few minutes in a deja vu stupor, reminded of her arrival on Paradisa all those months ago. Sighing, she shakes her head and looks up at the ceiling.]

Oh, for gods' sake! Will you learn a new trick? I am already so tired of this one.

[Thinking she's still in the castle, she begins searching the room, looking for some sort of clue as to what it had changed itself into. Finding nothing, she steps out of the room, glancing at the door in surprise at how it moves, before looking up and down the hall.

Catching a glimpse out a nearby window, her head slowly turns back, and she takes a few hesitant steps closer to peer out the glass, her jaw dropping when she sees the sight beyond. Space... And this ship. And another one?]

What is going on here?

[gottaknockhard]

[Spike just happens to be in the hall when he spots her, where he was also looking out into space. It's funny how strange it seems to be back to something familiar.]

Just another dream. [He smiles, glancing her way. That's all they ever are.]
