First off, time to get all intros done! SQUEEE!!!!
Grey:
Grey
glanced up at the clock nervously, causing the pencil to graze across
the page.
"Shoot." He muttered, and erased the light
line.
The Everhart Museum was a well known museum on Eveirgren, though not many had ever seen it. Grey was lucky to have gotten this job; and he did NOT want to screw it up.
"Grey." He looked up; Terra was standing in the door, hand over one hip. "What are you doing?"
"I'm sketching the new sheets." Grey explained.
Terra sighed exasperatedly. "I know that. I meant why aren't you covering the new archaic site we've found?"
Grey blinked. "What archaic site?"
She sighed again. "Come along, I'll show you."
Terra led him out into the park, where the trees were beginning to shed their leaves.
"There's some strange phenomenon with the rock at the site," Terra explained. "It glows."
Grey looked at her. "You mean, it has anabaric currents?"
She shook her head. "Its naturally luminescent. Ah, here we are."
They had stopped outside a cave, leading deep into the hills. Terra winked at Grey, and strode into the cave.
"What is this place?" Grey asked, looking around wildly. She had been right about the luminescent rock, but there also seemed to be glowing squiggles scrawled about the chamber.
"We think it was a burial ground." said Terra.
"But still..."
To be concluded.
Tylum:
Tylum walked down the crowded streets of Inolyp. No one seemed to pay him any mind.This is unusual he thought. He continued walking when all of a sudden he heard a noise. This is strang. Out of curiosity, Tylum followed the noise.
As he got closer, the noise got louder. It was very rhythmic and was unlike any thing he had ever heard before. It was music. Tylum walked very hesitantly. He inched slowly toward the music. He soon noticed he had ventured out of the metropolis. He decided since he came this far already, it would be foolish to stop. He continued, pushing through shrubs and bushes. He had come to the end of the mini forest, only to see a portal-like thing. In front of it was a person.
Bret stood there, staring at a guy around 6 feet tall, and frowning. He looked him in the eyes, finding only gray. The traditional eye color on Inolyp. He had heard that any time a child was born with a different colored set of eyes, they would be deemed royal. They stood that way for a few minutes, until, finally, "So you're Tylum, the traveler from Inolyp?"
Tylum stared at the man. "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Before the man could answer, dark black eyes were glaring at them through the dense foliage.
"A Pollyap," whispered Tylum.
"Well it looks like I've run into some fresh meat," hissed the Pollyap.
Tylum didn't hesitate. He took out his flop, an item much like a small keycard. He held it up and said "Goodbye, Pollyap."
Right after Tylum said that, a sharp, sleek projectile flew out of the flop, nailing the Pollyap square in the throat.
"I've seen you before, Tylum. You are the next traveler. Come," He said, leading him into the flume. "Now, call out, Cloral."
Tylum was nervous at first, but called the name, and was swept into the flume. When he got there, Bret stood in front of it. "How- What- Huh?"
"I'll explain everything." As he did, Tylum watched intently, and, as soon as he finished and left, Tylum left. To Grallion.
Harrison:
Harrison
walked through the desert that covers the
Twilight area. The flume was not well hidden, but it was not
necessary, as he was the only one able to walk in that area. As he
walked, he thought of his first encounter with Saint Dane, the evil
traveler.
"I won't lose again," Harrison said aloud as
he reached the flume. He entered, and thought about which territory
to visit.
I
don't know where he is, but I think I'd like to see the future of
Earth...
"Ninth Earth!"
Then the flume enveloped him with light.
"THIEF!"
screamed a resident of Trasmal city alerting the guards.
Orrahn
sprinted through the crowded streets of the city in search of a way
to escape.
He felt an arrow brush past his armor and looked back
to see that guards on horses were chasing after him. The green haired
thief took a sharp left into the honeycombs of alleyways and side
streets that he knew so well in hopes of reaching the sewers of
Dosmolik.
He took a right turn into a dead end with the entrance
to the sewers only to see more guards.
"Damn," he said
to himself as he turned back into another alley way "I will
never be able to enter Dosmolik with all of the Trasmal guards
running after me."
Orrahn took another turn onto a main road
to see a barricade of guards. Then he turned around to see he was
surrounded.
"Surrender now, or face the consequences!"
shouted the head guard.
"You think you have me, do you?"
replied Orrahn, keeping his cool.
"I will ask you one more
t-" He never had the chance to finish because orrahn was
charging right at him. Orrahn leapt into the air and landed on the
horses head. He then dove forward to doge an arrow and used the hilt
of his dagger to spin 360 degrees around the head guards head while
he kicked the surrounding guards off of their horses. Orrahn then
leapt off of the horse and ran out of the city's gates towards the
nearby mountains.
Orrahn turned back to see the guards were still
chasing him.
"Persistent, aren't we?" Orrahn mumbled as
he began to hit the slopes of a mountain. He then saw something that
made him sigh in relief. A cave. The green haired thief knew that he
would be able to lose them in there. He charged into the cave,
noticing that there was horse parked here that did not belong to a
guard.
By the time orrahn reached a three way turn he heard the
guards talk to each other and head back to the city. Orrahn took a
left turn and found a little pocket for him to hide and rest
in.
"Damn it, wrong turn!" somebody said to them self.
"It is too hard to see the star in this dark of a flume!"
The stranger said again.
"Oh yea, now I remember the left
one. The star is right here on the wall."
Orrahn crouched
down to avoid being noticed by the approaching stranger. The man
looked wealthy with Ich clothes, an elaborately decorated bow, and a
beautiful silver ring. Orrahn decided to trail the man into the cave
so that he could liberate him of his belongings.
They eventually
reached a dead end and the man shouted "2nd earth." a
melody played and the man disappeared into the light.
"Teleportation…" orrahn mumbled. "Did he see
me?" No, that couldn't be it, Orrahn was too careful not to make
a noise, and his armor disguised his smell. Orrahn had an
idea.
"Seconds hirth" orrahn said, attempting to mimic
the mans incantation.
"2nd Earth!" he finally said, and
music began to play. Orrahn felt something like an invisible hand
grab him as he was drug into the unknown.
Orrahn
was flying. He did not know what was going on. All around him there
were stars. The thief then looked ahead to see the rich man he was
trying to rob. He had to get that man's stuff. It was probably worth
a lot, especially that ring. Orrahn leaned foward to improve his
velocity. Orrahn was gaining on the man. Music started playing
again.
Orrahn was only inches away.
The music got louder.
The
ring dangling from the man's belt was nearly in orrahns grasp.
It
got louder.
Orrahn now had his hand around the ring.
All of the
sudden gravity kicked in and orrahn fell face first onto to the man.
Orrahn
quickly rolled on to the floor and drew his daggers.
"What
territory are you from?" The man asked
"What are you
talking about, I just followed you from the cave and said the same
incantation, but that does not matter! Hand over your money, for the
good of Dosmolik!"
"By the gods, you are the next
traveler from Rend. I have found you!" The man said.
"Are
you saying we are not on Rend?" Orahn got into a combat
stance
"We just took the flume to 2nd Earth my friend"
"You
are just trying to confuse me! I'll ask once more, for Dosmolik hand
over your belongings!"
Orrahn prepared to fight.
Orrahn
heard a sound from behind him and ducked. He felt fur brush by his
head as a large dog with Yellow eyes bit into the throat of the man.
Orrahn quickly stabbed the dog and knelt beside him. "What was
that?" orrahn asked
"A quig" said the man calmly
"Now, do as I say. You are a traveler, turn around and say Cloral.
There are people there who can explain. Oh, and wear the strange
clear thing on your head and don't forget to..." And, with that
the man passed.
Orrahn was not sure why but he trusted the man. He
stole the ring from the man's body and followed his directions.
"CLORAL!" orrahn shouted and an invisible hand once
again swept him away.
Faronia:
Faronia was eating a light meal when a bird landed on the edge of her table. It carried a note that was sealed in magic that only she could undo. She sighed softly and took the note, giving the creature a little piece of her meal, and read it. It was from the Aesir she served, Thor. It detailed her new tasks, and when she reached the bottom of the small list, she dropped it and stood up.
"So... it's almost that time..." she said gently.
She left the bird the rest of her meal and took up her spear, shield, and helm then walked out as she placed on her helm. Mounting her silvery white horse, she took the reigns and lightly kicked the creature a few times into a run. She was going to a shrine of Thor that was a few miles off, one that was for her use on the mortal plane.
After a few hours, she arrived at the shrine and dismounted, leaving her weapon and shield with the horse. She knelt down to one knee and offered her usual short prayer to Thor. After a few minutes she stood back up, turning to her horse, and walked over to the animal.
She placed her hand lightly on the animal's nose and began to sooth it as it became a bit unsettled. Soothing the horse only took a moment, at which point she climbed back onto it's back and steered it towards the nearest village. Though, something did not seem right. . .
To be continued…
Kell:
Kell
walked past the children's school and hopped into the transporter to
get to his school. Another
day of learning…
He walked out of the transporter and into the class. Those
old fashioned transporters are really cool…
He sat down and tapped the small table and a screen came up, but
instead of saying the normal ENTER,
it said KELL, YOU ARE A
TRAVELER.
Kell
gave the screen a blank look and shut it down, he pushed a button on
the back of the small table and the chip came out of it. He inserted
the chip into his wrist projector and went into the menu. But instead
of OPTIONS, EDIT, CODING, FREESEARCH, it said FLUMES, HALLA,
TERRITORIES,
SAINT DANE and TRAVELERS. He stood up and went over
to the teacher. "Uh, could I leave early today?" Kell
asked. "Sure, just remember to do the assignment." Kell
walked away with the feeling that he wouldn't get to do his
assignment...
A few hours later kell found himself waling through the old ruins of some water refiner. Well, the chip said to come here. He walked carefully through and turned his heat sensing on. There was something warm in the ground just ahead of him. Probably just a sun spot or something… He was about to walk over it when a giant bear/wolf thing burst out of the ground in front of him. Without much convincement Kell turned the other way and booked it.
The bad thing was that War's have wolf genetics in them so he caught up quite quickly and just as he was about to get his head crushed by the claws, a bolt of hot metal smashed through the War's head.
The bear was dead but it was still moving and hit Kell at the same speed it was running, breaking all his ribs and both legs. He lay under the bear bleeding as a person clothed in black with a black helmit on came up and injected a bone healing serum into him. Kell got up. "Thanks a lot, I would have been dead." A harsh mettalic voice came out of the Mack. "No problem". All of a sudden another War twice the size of the other one burst out of the ground behind the "RUN!" yelled the man. Kell ran untill he saw a door with a ster on it this must be it he opened the door, ran up to the tunnel and shouted the first thing that came to mind "TUBULAR!!!"
Ren:
Ren
glanced at his watch.
He was waiting for the exact time to use his
flume.
He was on Saint Dane's side and was counting down before
taking a flume to Tubular to help it fall.
5...4...3...2...1
He leapt in.
I believe that's all. Yeah, I'm afraid you'll have to wait a bit longer to learn about Our main characters. But, ya know, We got a lot of time. 99 more Territories. D
