An wide expanse of clouds is all anyone could see for miles, fluffy and white and going on for what seemed like forever. It undulated and shifted with the wind, rising and falling and swirling like smoke.
Then nine beds came into view, following the movements of the clouds and rocking the inhabitants gently. On these beds rested Billy Butcherson, Winnie, Sarah, and Mary Sanderson, Max and Dani Dennison, Allison, and May Tanaka.
The contestants and co-host awakened groggily, strangely all at the same time, and spent a few minutes sitting up and shaking the cobwebs from their heads. Taking a look around with slow sweeps of their heads, they finally noticed that their gracious host was missing.
"Maybe he fell through the clouds to his doom." Winnie suggested hopefully, but alas, it was not to be.
Dani suddenly cried out in shock and pointed up into the sky, drawing the attention of the other seven contestants. They all looked up, scanning the sky wildly, and took notice of the green star still glowing in the sunrise.
Further investigation revealed that it was heading straight for them.
A section of Cloud raised itself up, billowy and wispy but better than nothing, and the cast raced behind it to await the impending doom that was speeding towards them. At the same time, a translucent barrier shimmered into visibility in front of the panicking audience.
There was a deafening BOOM! to signal the emerald comet crashing into the surface of Cloud, sending up chunks of condensed water and carving an impressive impact crater for itself. As fluff rained down around them, the cast came out from behind their protective barrier and cautiously approached the slightly-green-glowing hole.
From the impact crater strolled Phoenix, no visible scratches or bruises whatsoever.
He greeted the dumbfounded cast cheerily, pushing Max's jaw up and shooing away some flies that had wandered too close to Allison before holding up a glowing green orb with strange golden symbols on it. He smiled evilly at the contestants and the audience before announcing, "Behold! Our first review!", before whirling around and hurling the glowing orb as hard as he could at the ground of Cloud. It burst on contact, spilling out a mysterious golden liquid that organized itself into the review.
Aww, no reviews? That's horible! This is really neat and it's never been done so yea for originality! :)
Ok..hmm, *thinks*
Off the top of my head..
1. Truth, why did Sarah sleep with Billy? How'd you seduce him to betray Winnie like that?
2. Why did Winnie punish Billy for that sin, but not Sarah?
3. Allison, why did you refuse to light the candle? Is it cause you really believed they'd come back or you, "Couldn't," light it?
Hmm..Dares? Trying to think of something fun or funny...
I dare Winnie to say something nice about each member of the cast! Ha, can she do it?
Okay, I know you and your friend are writing this but here are my ideas..I hope this helps and I hope you update ASAP! :)
Once everybody had scanned their eyes over the words, the liquid imploded in on itself and dropped through Cloud in a ball of condensed sunlight. That done with, Phoenix turned to regard Sarah and Winnie fighting (or should I say that Winnie was strangling Sarah, and Sarah was clawing at Winnie's hands?) because they were reminded of that... particular situation, and Allison was desperately trying to avoid Max, who was chasing her and demanding an answer.
Phoenix rolled his eyes and clapped his hands twice.
Max, Sarah, Winnie, and Allison all froze, the poor blonde witch immediately magicked out of Winnie's grasp. Everyone else except May was also frozen and placed in a line, four feet away from the two hosts and ready for their tasks.
"In order, I think." Phoenix stated, and Sarah was drawn forward.
Her head was freed and May repeated helpfully, "Remember,your truth is,'Why did you sleep with Billy, and how did you seduce him to betray Winnie like that?'"
Sarah shook her head resolutely and declared stubbornly, "I'm not telling you anything!"
Phoenix glanced at May before walking forward easily and whispering something in Sarah's ear. He nodded at Sarah and went back to his position, gesturing at the witch, and she immediately complied. "I slept with Billy because he was a handsome guy, and I like handsome guys. As to the betrayal..." at this point she put on a sly grin, "...I just played a little 'game' with him."
Everyone shuddered except Sarah.
"Alright you little urchin," Winnie suddenly spat at Phoenix, drawing his surprised gaze", how'd you get her to talk? Poison? Freedom? A chance in bed?"
He gave her a deadpan stare, denying, "No, no, and ew. I simply told her, dear WInnifred, that she didn't have to tell me anything. She just had to tell me the answer."
Winnie narrowed her eyes furiously at an oblivious Sarah, but then Phoenix snapped his fingers in front of her face to get her attention and held up a queue card with Winnie's truth on it. The redhead raised an eyebrow before answering, "Because I need her for our magic to work, obviously. Have you ever seen one of us cast a spell by ourselves?"
Phoenix blinked before prompting, "In your cottage, when you magicked Max to the wall?", but Winnie merely glared at him derisively and drawled, "They were near enough to draw from their power. Honestly, do you know nothing of shared magic?"
Phoenix ignored her jab and simply turned to Allison, who blinked for a moment at the tall neon sign with her truth on it before throwing a furtive glance in Max's direction. "I just didn't want the Sisters to come back! You know how much I believe the legends about Halloween." she finished quietly, eyes shifting back and forth, and Phoenix raised an eyebrow skeptically but let it go.
Turning back to Winnie, he tapped her dare out in Morse code on her head. A helpful scribe demon translated it and handed the paper to the captive witch, who read it quickly before putting on an obviously strained smile and yelling, "Your life forces would all taste delicious!"
She nodded to Phoenix and broke out of the constricting magic, walking over to her bed and lying back down on it again. Folding her hands on her stomach, she closed her eyes, completely ignoring the incredulous stares of everybody else.
