Hooooookaayyyyyyyyy... It got confusing there, 'tis all.

Post by Leoshi on Mar 15, 2006 17:58:37 GMT -5
Yoshiken is right Lava, that's what I meant. Sorry for the confusion... yeah, so I got a new one ready.
-----------------------------------
Teo transformed back into his Yoshi form, before giving a sigh.
"Teo... man, are you alright?" Lava asked.
"..." Teo was almost silent, spinning his head around and giving a light moan.
"...Teo?" Lava asked again.
"...I liek cheese." he was wearily, before leaning back and plopping back on the floor.
"...what?" Lava asked.
"The way I see it, he's either in shock or took a nasty bump to the head." Jay said. "It's safe to say he'll be out of it for a while now."
"Cheese... I..." Teo mumbled, saying something else incoherently.
Yoshiken shook his head. "Er- right. So Yoshiko, you have some explaining to do."
Yoshiko walked to the group. "Alright, here's what I got." He held a worn book that read "diary" on it.
"Is this Merier's?" LD asked.
"Yeah, and you won't believe what I learned." Yoshiko said.
-------------------------------
A few minutes passed as he explained what he read.
"Of course." Yapi said. "I get it, it's making more sense."
"Right. First of all, Merier moves here with two other people, and they are both absent now." Jay said. "There's a graveyard near the docks, and he freaks out when Moshi mentioned murder. Anyone seeing something weird with this guy?"
"It seems to be a theme here." Yoshee said. "All of the attacks that we have seen have come from the ground. Moshi went down a corridor that leads downstairs, John disappeared near the stairs, the shadow took Enrique down a corridor near the laundry chutes, hands took Yoshifrog, Champ, and Charon down, and a huge hand rose from below."
"It all adds up." Yoshiken said. 'We've been looking for them in the wrong spot. The answers to all of this are downstairs, in the basement."
"You want us to go down into there?" Lava asked, pointing at the gaping hole in the ground.
"We can either do that or go and look for Merier." Yoshiken said.
"I say we leave Merier alone." LD said. "I don't think he's got to do with it. I think it's zombies."
"Yeah, that's logical." Yoshiko said sarcastically.
There was a bit of silence, broken only by the sound of Teo saying something about cheese.
"Then we should do it." Eloeem said. "We better go down."
"He's right." Yoshiken said. "Besides, we have no idea who's next."
With that, Yoshiken ran toward the hole, and gave a flap of his wings before diving into the hole. Yoshiko followed behind shortly. Yoshee and LD carried the dazed Teo through, followed by Lava and Jay. Eloeem ran next with both of his weapons drawn, and in the rear was Yapi, who flew in last.
-------------------------------------
The group found themselves in a hallways near a set of spiral stairs. Unlike the rest of the building, it's entrance had a cold, rock-looking door. Pushing it aside, they saw the cylindrical shaft that lead strait down into darkness, and then with a strange red glow at the bottom.
"I wonder why this place looks so different from the rest of the resort." Eloeem asked.
"There's no time to wonder." Yoshiko said.
"He's right. Come on." Yapi said.
They began the decent down the cold, stone staircase. It looked more like the inside of a well then a place one would find inside a resort.
Yoshiken held out a hand, and letting his fire-powers create a small torch. This was the only light they possessed in this cold chamber... and further and further down they went.
At last, as they reached the bottom of the chamber, they could see a single barred-door, with a strange red glow coming from the next chamber.
"This can't be good." Yoshiko said, peering into the next chamber over. His hand reached for the door, which slowly creaked open as it pushed it. The group gave a few concerned expressions before walking through the room.
The red glow was coming from the torches on some nearby walls. The walls, like the stairwell, where made of stone. The red carpeted floor was like the same as the torches, and the ceiling was made of old wood. It where as if they had walked far away from the resort and into a castle.
"...this room is creepy." LD said. "I don't like this."
"Then let's hurry up." Yapi said.
The group rushed through the room, toward another door at the opposite end of the room.
Before anyone could open it up, there was a sudden loud explosion behind them.
The group turned around in fear, and gasped. More, smaller skeletal hands where rising from the floor. From somewhere up above, the clock chiming could be heard, distorted by the acoustics of the staircase.
"I say we fight back this time!" Lava shouted.
"I'm with ya on that." LD said.
"Wait, we can't all fight. Teo's weakened, and some of us are in no condition-" Yoshiken started, but was cut off.
"Oh, let me show you how it's done." Lava shouted.
He rushed ahead screaming, with LD following behind.
"Wait, are you sure you can do this?" Yapi asked.
"Trust us!" Lava shouted. "You guys go on, we need to save time."
"Are you nuts?!" Jay asked.
"He's right." LD said. "They don't stand a chance. Hurry up, time's running out."
Eloeem opened the door. he held Teo's legs, while Yoshiken held onto the yoshi's arms.
"You'll be alright, buddy." Yoshiken said.
"Liek..." he replied weakly.
The three of them walked out, followed by Yoshiko. "You guys hurry up, we don't want to lose anyone else." With that note, he followed the others.
Jay ran ahead next, taking the confused Yoshee with him.
"We need to stay and help!" Yoshee asked.
"I trust in their ability." Jay said. "Come on, before everyone else gets too far ahead."
Yapi was reluctant. "...are you sure I can't help?"
"You must follow the others!" LD repeated, before taking out his skateboard and getting ready to cast a wind spell.
"Yeah, we got this." Lava said, revealing his key-blade. "Go ahead, the others need you."
Yapi nodded, then rushed ahead, slamming the door behind her as she ran though.
The group who made it through stopped and gasped. Ahead of them was a hallway, that seemed to lead for a very long way, with the same red floors, stone walls, and wooden ceilings as before.
Before any of them could react, there was the sudden sound of an explosion. The red glow of the torches within the previous chamber had faded away.
"LD, Lava!" Yoshiko shouted. He took out his blade and slashed at the door. It fell open on impact... and revealed nothing. The room that once held Lava and LD was void. Both of them where gone, as well as the hands. The torch was put out... nothing left but the smoke...
----------------------------------------
Two more down, and the group is down to 6 people left. Things are going to get extreme...

Thanks, and I am back again, with the newest in fanfic updates... and stuff.
---------------------------------------------------
With every vanishing, the group had become more and more silent. Though with the disappearances of Lava and LD, the group was almost completely silent, aside Teo who was still mumbling something about cheese.
This time, it was Yapi who took the lead, followed by Yoshiko and Yoshee. Yoshiken and Eloeem, both holding Teo, where he next in line, with Jay in the lead, arms out and ready to attack at the next sign of danger.
"From now on, either we all fight as a team, or we all run." Yoshiken said. "We can't really afford to do any more separation."
"Agreed." Jay said, walking back-wards, keeping an eye out behind them.
The group remained silent as they continued their path down the strange corridor. As far as they could see, it appeared endless. It stretched out, far into the darkness.
"This has to lead under the woods." Yapi said.
"...wait!" Eloeem shouted.
"Yeah?" Jay asked as the group came to a stop.
"If this leads under the woods, there there's a chance the end of this hall will bring us under the cemetery." Eloeem added.
"Yeah, It could." Yapi said.
"So what if we have to go into the Mausoleums?" Eloeem asked. "We'll be right in the middle of-"
"Eloeem, everyone else's lives are at stake." Yapi said, without looking back. "We need to find them, and fast. Or we're next."
"Relax, I doubt we'll be captured." Yoshee said. "I mean, at this rate, it's only going to take a bit longer until we reach the end of this tunnel... I hope."
"Don't get your hopes up just yet." Yoshiko said. "I mean, we know for sure that Merier is a murderer. He killed two people by the names of "Virtuous" and "Master Ceive" according to his diary. Not to mention Spider went missing nearly a week before I joined as his worker." Yoshiko adjusted his glasses. "But he didn't realize that I was an undercover, undercover private investigator, posing to be a worker here."
"Alright, you've gotten me confused." Yoshee said.
"Anyway, we are almost out." Yoshiken said.
"Yeah, and I'd like to get out of this in one piece." Eloeem said.
There was the sudden sound of the bells tolling again.
"Oh great, what time is it now?" Yoshiko asked.
"I lost track a while back." Yoshee said.
"We better run, one of us could go missing any second now!" Yapi said.
The group instantly took off at the sound of that command. Jay remained facing the other way, flying back-wards in the rear of the group. Though with every new step, it was becoming increasingly hard to run. It was like trying to run up a hill, or a series of stairs.
"...What the heck's going on now?" Yoshiken asked.
"Guys, stop." Yoshee said. The group slowly tumbled to a halt. "What's the deal, Yoshee?" Yoshiko asked.
"The hall is tilting." Yoshee said.
Yapi gave a gasp and looked down at the floor. For some strange reason, the hallway ahead of them was lilting upward.
"What the heck is this?" Eloeem asked.
"Who cares, let's keep running!" Yoshiken shouted.
The slanting was becoming more and more unbearable to endure. 30 degrees and increasing. Their fast running was changing to a panting hike. The group looked behind themselves and saw the torches on the walls falling from their places, into the void of the other end of the hallway.
"Oh, heck no!" Eloeem shouted. "Is this even possible?"
"In this crazy place, anything is." Yapi said.
45 degrees, and increasing. The angle wouldn't stop, as the group was now halted. The in climbing hall was still relentless, as the floor had become a wall, and the new floor was far below them.
It was about then that Yapi, Yoshiko, and Yoshiken all took flight. Yoshiken and Yoshiko carried up Teo, as Jay, who had been flying the entire time, watched.
It was Yoshee and Eloeem that seemed to have a hard time keeping themselves up. Both of them where left clinging to the carpet.
"Yoshee!" Yapi exclaimed. She flew on over to her side. "Hold on for a second, I'll try to save you."
"Me too!" Eloeem shouted.
"Don't worry, I got ya." Jay said.
But before either of them could get close enough, there was the quiet, yet sure sound of cloth ripping. The carpet that Eloeem was clinging to was breaking apart at his own hands.
"NO!" Eloeem shouted. He suddenly, found himself falling. In a last-ditch effort to save himself, he reached for the closest thing he could keep himself anchored to. That was unfortunately Yoshee's foot. She gasped, and with the added weight, could no longer support herself. Both of them fell from there, and began their decent into the now vertical shaft of the hallway.
"NO!" Yapi shouted.
Before anyone could react, both had vanished from view. Their screaming echoes until they had both fallen from sight.
"We got to go save them, right now!" Yapi shouted. She got ready to fly, but Yoshiko used his free hand to block her.
"Yapi, it's five left. I guarantee you that if you go and follow them, you will disappear too." Yoshiken said.
Yapi sighed. "...I know... but you couldn't just expect me to do nothing this whole time."
Yoshiken sighed, and looked up. "The best thing we can do for them is save them. Let's go."
With that, both of them accended up the shaft. At the roof, which was once the walls, there was a doorway.
Yapi, fed up with the house, quickly shot a ray of light. The door burst open, allowing them to fly up into the next room...
--------------------------------------
This arc is getting closer and closer to the climax. And trust me, you won't believe what I have in this "next room."

LEOOOOOO! I'M STILL THERE! I'LL COME AND SAVE YOU! Well, I can't really; not unless I don't disappear, and we find you, and all that. I still say Merrier's up to something bigger. He should go crawl into a grave AND GO EMO AND KILL HIMSELF. XD Keep it up, Leo. I'm on the edge of my seeeaaat. *falls*
