Pandemonium Theory: Here's my old story that I acquired from Dag 417. For the most part, it's the same story except that Reno has been removed and replaced by my OC Arron.

Ch.1 A Meeting Ground

"Hey!" a teenage boy called out into the woods. He was bent over panting, and aired out his red t-shirt with an "Above the Influence" symbol on it. Then he stood up and ran a hand through his short, curly, blond hair. Thank God I wore shorts, he said himself. It's so hot. "Hurry up, guys! You won't believe this!"

"Wait for us, Aaron!" a voice yelled from the woods. A moment later, a boy came out. He had spiky hair, and wore a black t-shirt that had "Marathon" across it in turquoise. He also wore jeans, and when he finally reached Aaron, he wished he hadn't worn jeans. "You know, you could've told me we were going to be running through the woods. If you did, I wouldn't be burning up."

Aaron shrugged, "School just let out, and I thought it would be cool to go exploring. I found a cave and I thought it would be neat to check it out."

"Well, it better be worth it," a girl said stepping out from behind the other boy, "And Leo, stop complaining."

"You're one to talk, Olivia! You're wearing shorts!" Leo exclaimed.

"So? I'm also wearing a jacket." Olivia said with finality. It was true; she wore white shorts, and a white jacket that came to her midriff. Her green shirt made her green eyes stand out, especially when she was glaring at Leo. Her short black hair didn't help either as the wind tossed it to one side.

"C'mon, guys. We're supposed to have fun," Aaron said. He turned around and pointed where the ground dipped in. "It's just over there."

He started running again. Leo grumbled and jogged after him with Olivia.

As the three entered the cave, they felt disoriented at first, but it soon passed.

Olivia looked around uneasily. "This place gives me the creeps, guys."

"Don't worry, Olivia," Aaron said. "Nothing can hurt you."

Then, in a whisper, Olivia said, still looking around fretfully, "Yeah, but if I find any bugs, I'm gonna hurt you."

After a couple minutes, they stumbled over a golden tablet. Inscribed on it was a dragon, with a fox and rabbit underneath.

Leo was amazed, "Where did that come from?"

"I dunno," Aaron said fascinated, "but that's not all that's weird. When I came here, all that was on it was the dragon."

"What should we do?" Olivia asked uncertainly, "Take it with us?

"I dunno," Leo said, "This kinda stuff happens in movies and when you touch it, bad things start to happen."

Aaron grinned, "Yeah, well this isn't a movie. What's the harm anyway?"

He reached out to touch it. It glowed. Then the cave began to shake.

"Earthquake!" Leo yelled.

Three beams of light shot out from the tablet and into their hands. Then the intensity of the light overpowered their vision, and the three blacked out.


When they came to, they found themselves in a groggy and depressing cavern, which was bigger than the one they came from. Everything was black and white, except them themselves. As they looked around, they found five other teens in the cave.

Aaron looked at them questioningly, "Hello. How did you guys get here?"

They all looked at him blankly. Then one of the teens spoke, "Name's Matt. I was hiking in the Rockies, and then the snow got out of control so I found this cave. Inside I found this gold tombstone-like thing with a rabbit on it. I was going to take it back with me, but when I touched it, I found you guys here."

"What state do you live in?" Leo asked.

"I'm not an American. I'm from Vancouver, and my family decided to go hiking for vacation," Matt said a little annoyed.

"Children!" a voice shrilled.

In front of them, a fire burst into life and two yellow eyes appeared.

«Будут вами?» (What are you?) One of the girls asked.

Aaron looked at her not understanding and then asked, "What...are you?"

"What I am is of no great importance. First, before we begin discussing further, I think we should understand each other better."

Five small objects fired at each of them. It entered their necks. There was a brief pain, but it subsided. A scar was left in the shape of a "V".

The foreign girl shrieked, "What did you do?"

The others gasped, including her. They could understand her!

"Yes, yes," the voice said, "I think it would be better to talk to each other. After all, as of this moment, you are a team. Now, I'm going to give you all the chance to get to know each other. I will be back shortly."

With that, the fire disappeared.

The foreign girl stood up. She had dirty blond hair, and wore a pale green shirt. She also wore a pale yellow skirt, "I'm Bryana, and she's Tsukasa." She pointed to the other girl, who had spiky hair that covered half her face. She also wore baggy clothes, which almost made her look like a boy. "We were on a school field trip to some caves."

"Yeah," Tsukasa said, "and it was so boring."

"Like, totally," Bryana added.

"Anyway," Tsukasa continued, "we wandered off and found a smaller cave, and inside we found a stone with an axe and a vampire on it. We touched it, and now… we're with you."

"Well," Aaron said, "we're from America and we decided to check out this cave for our first day of summer vacation. We found a tablet that had a dragon, rabbit, and a fox on it."

Leo looked over to the two other boys. One was shorter than the other was and he wore a school uniform and glasses. "Hi," he said shyly, "I'm Keith. Me and my brother are from Japan."

Wow, Aaron thought, he sure is pale.

The other boy was taller. He had messy red hair under a ball cap, and wore a baggy yellow shirt, and red shorts. He and his brother didn't look alike at all. "I'm Dan, and our dog ran into a pit in the ground. We followed him and we found a stone that had a fish and a clock on it."

"So what is this is all about?" Olivia wondered aloud.

Before anyone could respond, the fire returned.


A/N: For past readers, this is the same as last time, but for old and new readers, Dag 147's OC universe is gone. So there is no required reading or anything to follow the story. Hope you enjoy, and please read and review.
