EEEEeeee we're getting closer to the good parts!
For any 'major' changes in the updates, see chapters two, - otherwise it's just mainly been formatting and small grammer stuff ;)
AquaEclipse - ... I forgot to credit didn't I? *facepalm* that's fixed now xP
Glad to hear^^
Shall do :D No plans on stopping anytime soon (:
Firefoxx01 - :D
Same here! I'd love to live in Twin Moon, the mer one from a few chapters back, and be a bird in a tree watching chapter 50 lol
*Isa blinks innocently at you* Isa:: I've no idea what you're talking about *she flips her hair and struts away*
Sometime, yup xD Never mind the last one was probably well over fifteen chapters ago x)
Thanks, Cassie's going to be doing quite a bit of singing, so if you know any sad/depressing songs, let me know. I've got a few (and I'll message you them on CS if you'd like) but I don't think it's enough
You tOTally should :D
TheAmberShadow - The biggest changes so far are in the chapters mentioned (I'm working towards that screw up you mentioned with Magnus and Jesse in AU Month btw, just haven't quite gotten to it yet)
It's gonna be awesome
AAaaahh! I was hoping someone would catch that ;) See, all mobs spawn from parrot eggs right? (well, here they do anyways) so when the portal picks its dominant scents to transfer (each depending on the worlds) it picks up on a ton of parrot, and so parrot has assaulted Magnus's nose. He's gonna be in for a hecka shock though
Thanks, that was the point, to start to get a feel for the AU Old Builders, before meeting them. Well, the ones who still have their memories anyways.
Whoever said Cassie was a Siren? *smirks* I only said she had sirenic inheritance, a musical blood if you will. }:D
She really does...that...actually clicks now that you point it out xD
...maybe... XD To be fair, the wiki says that Hadrian (and the Games) were based a lot on Snow (and the Hunger Games)
Thanks, I'll be needing it xP
Charlotte - Yeah it sucks xP But here's hoping it gets revoked soon (it has happened and been undone before so hey, hopefully)
Eventually anyways~
Aw thanks! Honestly, this is how I usually depict Cassie, just...older and slightly more traumatized
On to the fic!
(PS - Wrote this one freehand, no reference ;) I might do that more often, it's a lot more fun that way)
"Syndicate is dead."
HBomb's words may as well have dropped an actual bomb into the manor.
Shubble and Isa's eyes widened, Shubble's white crown slipping over her eyebrows in the process, Stacy and Graser's mouth dropped open, and Kiingtong seemed to have gone into shut-down mode, staring blankly at HBomb.
Finally Shubble managed to stammer out "But he was so tough! All those Hardcore servers...How...What...There shouldn't have been anything here that could take him down!" Kiingtong nodded quickly and put in "Seriously though, this is a prank right? You hacked the server somehow?"
HBomb shook his head and opened his mouth to explain, but Ivor beat him to it. "Tipped arrows." he said simply, glancing at Jesse who got the hint and reached into his inventory. As the scarred man removed the green-tipped arrow, grimacing as he did so, Ivor found himself looking at the other people, studying their reactions. As he was shifting onto Isa, he caught himself, and quickly turned back to the arrow. What was he thinking? There was no way anyone who'd been invited could have done this, it had to be the host.
But did it?
He flicked his gaze up to Isa anyways, and found only horror in her pale green eyes. Alright. that was what he'd expected anyways.
"Tipped Arrows?" Stacy asked, breaking the silence finally, wrapping her arms around herself with a small shudder "That's horrible!"
"Sooooo..." Graser said, red eyes flicking towards the doorway Ivor and the others had gone through a few moments ago. "What happened to his stuff?"
"GRASER!" Shubble shrieked, literally, as her voice went up several octaves higher.
"Yea, that's...that's really not the best thing to wonder about." Kiingtong said, though Ivor suspected he was hiding a smile from the way the hoodie-wearing teen quickly pulled his hood further over his face.
"How could you even wonder about that at all?" Isa demanded, her green eyes appearing to turn a few shades lighter, though when Ivor squinted they were back to normal. "It literally just happened! In a few hours maybe, alright I get it, but right after?" She shook her head, black hair fanning around her in an almost halo.
"Guys, guys,"HBomb said, waving his arms slightly.
"I just want to know what happened!" Graser yelped back, red eyes wide with fear.
"Besides, it doesn't matter." Harper interrupted, causing whatever HBomb had been about to say to die in his throat. The others turned towards the ravenette, confusion clear in most of their eyes. Harper blushed slightly at the sudden attention but quickly said "The inventory, it, it got sucked into some hoppers, it's gone."
Isa turned a green eyed glare towards Harper, which made Ivor's hands clench into fists. "And we're just supposed to take your word for it?" Isa snapped. She took a stalking step forwards, but HBomb stepped in between the two girls. "Isa stop, I saw it too. His things..." he glanced towards Stacy "Everything he had on him is gone."
Stacy's eye twitched slightly and she started to ask "Did he have-" HBomb shook his head. "No, it was clean. Well, I mean the Enchanted Bow was a little suspicious since the instructions were to leave all weapons behind, but I didn't see any arrows so it was pretty pointless."
Ivor glanced at Jesse, arching a brow. He hadn't remembered anything about weapons. Jesse shook his head. Weird. Maybe their copy had been different? And then there was the question of, how the absolute heck did the Host know they would be arriving?
"So I'm looking at this entire situation and I've come up with a question." Gabriel spoke.
They'd been in the room for quite some time now, talking a little about Syndicate's death, and Gabriel had been silent almost the entire time.
Ivor turned towards him, and from the rustle of clothing he wasn't the only one.
Gabriel was currently looking at the portraits, but as he continued to speak he slowly turned his gaze down to look at everyone "Is this just about Syndicate, or...is there something bigger going on? Because if this is just about him, why bring all of us here, why the portraits?"
Ivor's eyes widened. He hadn't even thought about that.
Apparently, he wasn't the only one, because Kiingtong spoke up. "Now, Syndicate, he wasn't...he wasn't exactly the nicest guy. But, doing something like this..." he shook his head "How could anyone bring people someplace with the intent to kill them? That's just flat out barbaric. Without an instant or two minute Respawn anyways."
Ivor still had no clue what the heck they were talking about.
"Guys..." Graser spoke up, looking significantly paler than a few minutes ago. "What if we're all in some real danger here?"
"Graser's right..." Harper said. Someone, sounding suspiciously like HBomb, muttered "had to happen sometime"
Ivor decided to ignore him, and focused on Harper, who turned a fearful gaze to Ivor. "We're trapped."
Jesse nodded grimly "Between a zombie horde, and a murderer."
And that's a wrap!
Remember to review!
