PROLOGUE
"The Storm"
(Feel free to write up a prologue for your character, which is the events they are in before being sent into this Murder game. Otherwise, just have them wake up in the mansion like so.)

Rain droplets pounding, clock hands ticking, these sounds eerily went together well, like a symphony to all. It was the very melody to awaken all of you from the unaware slumber you all took. Regardless of what you did before, you find yourself asleep on the icy cold concrete tiled floor. There are many that were dragged to this mansion, as you could tell from the diverse bunch around you. While it was a huge mansion, it apppeared at the moment that you were to stay in the entrance hall, all other doorways that lead to different areas in this mansion were blocked off. Other than the fact that this was a spacious entrance hall, there was a portrait of a woman in an elegant ball gown, and a plaque with some message etched onto it.

If you check yourself for your belongings (items of importance) they were all gone, as if the person or persons responsible had stolen your items while you were unconscious.

There was nothing else to ponder about. Maybe a good first move is to acquaint those that are here, or maybe explore this entrance hall. From first looks, you had a feeling that this entrance hall was clearly a place of interest for this mansion. So an important event might occur?

Oh, don't even think of leaving the actual mansion building, you can hear the typhoon storming and raging outside the mansion.

"Yukiteru and Yuno Prologue"

It was a tiring day. Physically and mentally. To most, it was a freak accident. For these young teenagers, it was progress. Not long ago, they had finished off someone that wished to kill them. Why? It was all because they participate in a "Survival Game." The design of it was simple: 12 people participate, battle to the death, last one alive becomes god. These two teenagers that killed off a participant were a part of this game: Yukiteru Amano, the 'First,' and Yuno Gasai, the 'Second.' While authorities try to make sense of the situation, the two of them enter a police car, alone. Yukiteru saw that Yuno was about to fall asleep, her head leaning against his shoulder as they sat in the backseat of this police car. The pink-haired teen snuggled in his jacket that he had lended to her. Despite how she acted in the shrine, all of this made her seem harmless. Seeing as they were alone here, Yukiteru saw no problem to...

"Good night, Yuno," he whispered to her ear, unsure if she were still asleep or just acting asleep. The very next moment, he raised her head up as he leaned in for as kiss right on her lips. Then... he possibly fell asleep as well.

---

Arriving at the mansion...
Awakening from their slumber, Yukiteru was the first to awaken and stand up from the cold floor of...a mansion's entrance hall? He didn't remember ever coming here. He and Yuno were in a police car to be escorted home...and they were here instead. That didn't sound right. And it unnerved him that there were others here, others that looked out of place. He turned his attention to Yuno, she was still fast asleep.

"Yuno...Yuno wake up," Yukiteru muttered to his partner, gently shaking her asleep self. Then he remembered, he had his Future Diary to help out! Wanting an explanation for this, he reached into his pocket to retrieve his Future Diary...but it wasn't there? No, no that was bad. If he didn't have it, then whoever brought him and Yuno here has it. Without it, he felt vulnerable, that someone could lure him into a trap without him knowing it. He began to think that Yuno's Future Diary was missing too.

"Yuno, please wake up. We're in a bad situation right now," Yukiteru began to shake her even more, he needed her awake. He ignored the possible others that were in this entrance hall with them to begin with.

"Welcome to the world of tomorrow!" - some sort of amateur prologue -

Ah, New New York. A city of towering skyscrapers, floating cars, space-ships, transport tubes, MOM's Friendly Robot corporation. Sitting somewhere in this shining metropolis, located in a strange red building that looks part tower, part hangar is Phillip, J, Fry. What is our main protagonist doing? Why sitting on the couch, watching TV and drinking Slurm of course!

"And now we return to our story of the alligator swarm. What do you have to say, foolish human scientist?!" The green alien newscaster known as Morbo said, the screen switching to an elderly looking smart science person. It seemed to be fairly boring ... so with a click Fry changed the channel.

"Oh Monique, will you return to me" The sound of a certain 'Calculon' robot sounded as the TV now started showing a television opera.

"Sweet, All My Circuits is on!" Fry shouted, sinking back into the couch as he began to watch his show. He loved this show! He and Bender would watch it all the time, drinking Slurm or beer while sitting around as the other staff members of Planet Express did work. Just him and his best friend, living the live in the year 3000. Speaking of Bender ... the grey Bending unit had just walked in.

"What's up chumps! Fry!" Bender shouted obnoxiously as he entered the room, nearly stepping on the small black ,,, monkey, thing that was Nibbler. The three eyed pet of his love interest, Leela quickly jumped out of the way. It made a growling noise as it looked back at Bender, before turning back and going to sleep in the office kitchen.

"Hey Bender! All My Circuits is on!" Fry shouted back to his friend, who immediately joined him on the couch. "I think it's a rerun from last week" he said, throwing his now empty can of Slurm in the direction of the trash. It missed and came to rest in a small pile of tin cans just outside the trash. Fry merely shrugged and turned his attention back to the television.

"So this is the episode where Monique decides to return to Calculon after they break up, right?" Bender asked as he opened up a can of beer. Since his system required him to drink alcohol in order to run, he was rarely seen without a beer in hand. He also smoked cigars, but only because they looked cool.

"Yeah, I think they're at the part-" Fry started.

"Good news everyone!" The voice of the professor interrupted him. All the staff started to come to the conference table, where the professor had called from. There was the Jamaican bureaucrat, Hermes. There was the one eyed cyclops with purple hair tied into a ponytail that was Turanga Leela. The Martian intern, Amy. Also coming into the room was Zoidberg, the alien crab monster that was the crews doctor. Lastly, there was Scruffy, the Janitor.

Sighing, Fry aimed the remote at the Professor, and started repeatedly pressing the pause button. "Jeeze, why does this stupid thing never work when it needs to" He said, reluctantly pausing the television and getting up.

"As i was saying, I just completed my newest invention!" The ancient scientist said, his eyes likely showing enthusiasm behind several inches of thick glasses. "It's a view-a-scope that allows us to peer through the multiverse!"

"Sounds like fun on a bun!" Bender repeated one of his catchphrases as he leaned on a nearby wall. Although his comment was uncharacteristically nice, his attitude seemed to be rather apathetic.

"What's a multiverse?" Fry asked. He rarely understood what the Professor rambled about, usually opting to just sit back and nod as if he understood.

"I'm glad you asked, Fry" The old man replied, putting on his 'fing-longer' and pulling up a holographic display. "You see, scientists discovered evidence of the first parallel universe back in 2781, but we've never wanted to explore it any further. Apparently it wasn't as interesting as other subjects, and has sort of stagnated. Anyways, the multiverse is a collection of universes that either are parallel to each other, and sometimes are vastly different, but often are nearly identical."

"Like that one time that we found a new universe we found where Bender was gold and Fry and Leela were together?" Hermes inquired, with the professor giving a reaffirming nod.

"Indeed. Most universes are different by only one or two things, but sometimes they're different by a lot of things." The professor then pulled up a schematic on the projector. "Anyways, my device allows us to peer into other universes and see what they're up to. I decided to avoid any complications that i'd make it only looking."

"You mean it was easier, right?" Fry remarked, stretching his arms back and turning his head back towards the TV. "Well this sounds boring, I'll let you all do the universe, peeping ... thing" He said, then turned to leave. As he did, Bender joined him, once again nearly stepping on Nibbler. The small black alien jumped up onto the table in fear, tipping over the invention and causing it to crash onto the floor. As it did, it sent a beam out that hit both Fry and Bender as they sat on the couch. They vanished from the room, dissappearing to who knows where.

"I'm assuming they'll be fine"

"Most likely"

"Mhmm"

The Planet Express Crew went back to their respective jobs around the building, safe in the assumption that Fry and Bender were both replaceable, and both would return sooner or later. After all, that event was rather mundane compared to some of the other strange things that happened around New New York.

---

Meanwhile ... somewhere else

"ow ... what the heck was that for!?" Fry complained as he rubbed his rear end. He remembered walking towards the TV when something kicked him in the ass. He assumed it was Leela, once again accusing him of laziness. "Ehwha" He mumbled as he turned around to find that he was no longer at Planet Express. There were a bunch of strange people there as well, although it didn't affect him too much seeing as he came from a place where strange was normal. He even saw Bender, so whatever got him likely got his friend as well.

[ System loading ... ]

[ initializing system check ... ]

[ system check complete ... ]

[ scanning nearby stealing targets ... ]

[ scan complete ]

Bender got up slowly, looking around and detecting multiple sources of people to steal from. He he he he ... chumps. He noticed Fry was still there, which was good. He was always an easy target. There also seemed to be some Asian kid, as well as a good amount of different people. The kid seemed like an easy target, although he didn't know if they had any good items to steal. He then noticed that all of his items were gone. In fact ... it looked like someone stole from him ... the very thought! Someone was looking to get their ass kicked.

[Gummi Bunnies]

While Yuno was still asleep, Yukiteru immediately turned around to see a man who wore a formal suit and was probably in a business or the justice system. He didn't know why this man was aking them these things...who wouldn't in a place like this? Well....

"I...I'm not sure. We just happen to be here...I can't find my phone either, so someone who was responsible...took our stuff when we weren't looking," Yukiteru explained all that he knew, careful not to say Future diary...

"Um, who are you exactly?" He asked the man, but yet not realizing that Yuno was awakening from her sleep at this moment. A soft groan came with her awakening, her opening eyes spotting two others.

[Rin Okumura]

Ticci Toby and Masky prologue

Toby and Masky were carrying out their respective duties as proxies. Toby was out killing a target and Masky was searching through the Slender Man forums for a prospective target. Suddenly the two blacked out. Nothing unusual for proxies, though it was extremely abnormal this time.

At the mansion

Masky woke up first, assuming he had another blackout from the Slender sickness. When he brought his hand up to his face to rub his eyes he realized something was wrong. "Where is my mask?!" He accidentally yelled out of surprise. This is when he realizes that there are other people in the room with him.

Toby aroused soon after Masky and was a little shocked by the yelling. It took him a second to realize who it was and groaned. If he was stuck in a place he didn't know, this was the last person he wanted to be with. "Hello Timothy," he said smugly. Might as well mess with him while he could. Masky only rolled his eyes in response.

"Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter"

Six and Boone's Prologue

Walking down this long road were these two people. They seemed inseparable as whoever had attempted to separate them was usually killed very quickly. This road that they traveled was a dangerous one but it seemed like the female kept encouraging the male to press on headed for someplace called 'Quarry Junction'.

".....Are you sure this is the best plan Six?" the male asked seeming to refer to the female by the name 'Six'.

"I dunno Boone but we have to get in there. We need to collect deathclaw eggs and get to the Kahn's on the ridge that we saw when scouting earlier" Six said in response.

As they both get close to the entrance one of the 'deathclaw's' noticed them. The fight was long and hard as they fought to the Kahn's on the ride. It was a wonder of how they both made it in the end but then for them everything seemed to go black.

---

[Present time, Strange entrance hall]

Six suddenly awoke in confusion her helmet of course hiding this. "Wha.....what happened?" she asked herself seeming unaware of those around her. She heard the grunting of someone next to her as she looked and saw Boone. You're here to Boone?" Six asked as Boone rose up into a sitting position seeming to be the first of the two to notice everyone else.

"..." no response came from Boone as Six tilted her head noticing the others. They both noticed Yukiteru and Yuno first seeming confused as to why kids were here. Then looking to notice Teru. Finally they oticed Toby and Masky which only seemed to confuse them more This all seemed to bother Six as these three looked a hell of a lot cleaner than what she was used to . In fact this whole place looked cleaner than even New Vegas.

"Um....can someone explain to us what's going on here?" Six asked also in a sitting position seeming to realize her katana was gone.

Boone realized this as well and checked only to see that his scoped hunting rife was gone as well.

".....Someone took our weapons..." Boone said to Six speaking quieter so the others couldn't hear him.

Of course once hearing Teru and seeming his movements Boone got up follow by Six. Boone wasn't sure who these gestures were made towards but if it came down to it he was ready to protect Six even he knew full well Six could handle herself.

(Well here it is. I'll edit if there's something that wasn't supposed to be in this in it by mistake.)

[nerminator]

Teru Noticed that more People had walked into the room they looked like they were From a Wasteland This place. Never fails to Surprise me. He couldn't Quite make out the Girls name. it was Incomprehensible and Teru Just couldn't read it What if she was never named? and her Lifespan was Changing too, Everyones Lifespan was, Obviously Something was wrong here. Like someone was Going to die, the other person Teru Noticed, Immediately Recognizing there names, these People Look like they've been through a Lot, I'm Guessing that there Good, for the Time being., Well more People Have Arrived it seems. Teru Said to the new People, Obviously Nobody Knew anything so Teru Quit Trying to Find out any Answers, Teru Kindly Greeting the Newcomers Saying Why hello, My name Is teru Mikami, It seems that There is more People here Than I expect Teru Bowed with his Hand at his Side, Showing that he was a GentleMan to everyone around him. After all, People who didn't Know manners where More likely to Be evil

"You looking to start something, meat bag?" Bender asked the mysterious glasses wearing person who approached him. "Yeah, that's what I thought" He finished as the man suddenly walked away. He didn't mind, as the man had admitted he didn't have anything. Which meant he couldn't steal anything from him. Although ... that business suit looked pretty expensive.

"I bet he's a nerd. Like one of those stuck up, rule-following type nerds" Fry said, turning around again to look at the strange people. He then shrugged it off, not seeming to care anymore. However, it was clear he was really thinking of something "Hey, you think this place has TV?" He turned towards Bender.

"That's a good point Fry ... although ... he he he he" Bender started laughing darkly. Based on the classic nature of the building, mixed with the big fancy painting, this place was probably some rich person's home. And if it was owned by a rich person ... then there was things worth stealing. Like that painting he saw. He walked up to it and began looking at it, attempting to assess its value.

"Bender ... hello? Earth to Bender" Fry said, suddenly waving his hand in front of the robots face. Bender had been staring at the painting as if in a trance, ignoring the world around him.

"Eh what?" The now flustered bending unit replied, backing away a bit. "I don't have to answer to you!" he suddenly shouted, then calmed down. "Anyways, if they're as rich as this hallway implies, I bet they have a lot of booze stored somewhere"

[Gummi Bunnies]

"Yukki..." Yuno yawned as she got up, finally awake. Her awakening had brought relief for Yukiteru, immediately looking to see her sitting up on the floor. Though, the look in her eyes went from her curious innocent self that she would always show Yukiteru... into a more serious and cautious stance. Standing up, she pulled her partner close to her... and whispered,"I don't trust any of them. I knew that we shouldn't had trusted 4th... " Great, so she was going into her over-protective stance for him, not that it was needed at the moment.

"Stop that. We don't actually need that kind of behavior right now," Yukiteru tried to convince her that she didn't need to be like that, because that would only stir up more trouble than they needed to have.

"...fine Yukki, if you think that way," Yuno sighed, calming down. At least there wouldn't be any violence at her hands.

"I-I don't know what happened, but if we're all here without knowing why... I have a feeling that someone... kidnapped us here," Yukiteru decided to answer the question that someone with a helmet and a feminine voice spoke out,"O-Oh... and I'm Yukiteru Amano... and my friend's...-Yuno!"

Apparently Yuno had decided to go off to take a look at the plaque right next to the portrait of the elegantly-dressed woman. Not that there was anything wrong with it, but it was almost instant that Yuno had decided to walk away and check around on her own. She didn't say anything as she read the plaque's message.

Count Helcrest prologue
Cold winds swiped pass the large shaped window of keep of castle Helcrest. Looking out the window over the snow cover streets and buildings of the city outside stood Count Helcrest. He held a large goblet of dust wine as he watched the actives going on below him. 'Ahh, tribute day i enjoy this time of year,' he thought to himself as he watch the representatives of the minor faction in there region pay there dues to the Broken Lords. "My lord, we have found an endless artifact," a Stalwart captain reported to to him.

"Bring it in," the count said turning around to the Stalwart. The doors to the chamber was open and a squad of five Stalwards walked in carrying a large metal chest. Count Helcrest set down his dust wine an approach the chest. Opening it he pulled out a 2x2x2 metal cub, each of the sides had an interesting carving on the sides. "This is a marvelous find Endless relics are hard to come by," he said to the captain. As he was fiddling with the it started to glow before he could even say a word there was a bright blue flash and the count has disappeared.
======
[Present time, Strange entrance hall]

Count Helcrest awoke in the entrance hall propped up against the wall near the portrait making himself look like a suit of armor. Awaken he stumbled forward and fell onto the floor "that was unbecoming of me," he said to himself standing back up. The count looked around at the people in the room with him. Count Helcrest went to the hilt of his sword to find it missing 'my sword its gone,' he thought bitterly. He decided to observer the situation for now.

[nerminator]

Teru had let them Off with a Invisible warning, Whenever Teru Walks Away without Finishing his question means Not to test him, Teru's Face tensed up as he Immediately Turned to Fry and Swung his fist right at His face, Teru had Beaten Up bullies since he was in 4th grade, Fry was just another Bully, Another Evil Punching Bag for Teru, His face with Anger but also With Complete Knowledge of what hes Doing. Teru Attempted to hit Fry Square in the Face. It would hurt A lot if it hit him, And it would teach that Teenage Asshole His place

[Gummi Bunnies]

Well isn't this the greatest bunch? Yukiteru was unsure if this was even remotely a prank of some kind. Though he did have to take in on how this place was quite something that would be owned of someone with a lot of wealth. "...what if the person who lives here is still around?... I'm not even sure if we're all supposed to be here," Yukiteru wasn't sure if it would be easy to steal anything from this mansion, and he could tell that would be hell when there was a powerful storm occurring outside. So it was probably for the best to stay in the mansion until the storm dies off. While he was considering looking around himself (with Yuno of course), he was shocked to see that the man that he first talked to upon coming here had gone off and attempted to punch Fry right in the face.

"Whoa whoa! I don't think that's necessary! We don't even know why exactly we're here, and if that's the case... we need to try and work together," Yukiteru nervously tried to divert the tension. He didn't know these people ,and he didn't want to see so much unneeded fighting in the first place.

During all of that non-sense, Yuno found the plaque's message... intriguing. It sounded like it was some sort of poem, story, or even a riddle. Not caring for the others at the moment, the pink-haired girl read out loud the message for all to hear:

Behold the sweetfish river running through my beloved hometown.
You who seek the Golden Land, follow its path downstream in search of the key

As you travel down it, you will see a village.
In that village, look for the shore the two will tell you of.
There sleeps the key to the Golden Land.

The one who obtains the key must then travel to the Golden Land in accordance with these rules
On the first twilight, offer the six chosen by the key as sacrifices.
On the second twilight, those who remain shall tear apart the two who are close.
On the third twilight, those who remain shall praise my noble name.
On the fourth twilight, gouge the head and kill.
On the fifth twilight, gouge the chest and kill.
On the sixth twilight, gouge the stomach and kill.
On the seventh twilight, gouge the knee and kill.
On the eighth twilight, gouge the leg and kill.
On the ninth twilight, the witch shall revive, and none shall be left alive.
On the tenth twilight, the journey shall end, and you shall reach the capital where the gold dwells

The witch will praise the wise, and should bestow four treasures.
One shall be, all the gold from the Golden Land.
One shall be, the resurrection of the souls of all the dead.
One shall be, even the resurrection of the lost love.
One shall be, to put the witch to sleep for all time.

Sleep peacefully, my most beloved witch, Beatrice.

Despite how morbid it all sounded, Yuno had a rather innocent look on her face again as she had no problem in reading this Epitaph that clearly suggested outright murder...

[Rin Okumura]

Masky turned to the group to introduce himself. "Hello, I'm called Masky. However due to the fact that my mask is missing you may refer to me by my actual name, Tim." He then turned a glare toward Toby before addressing the group again, "and don't listen to my associate Toby. He's what you call a bitch."

Toby stomped up in front of Masky while reaching for his hatchets. Except that they weren't there. "Alright, who t-took my damn hatchets. Whoever d-did it is going to be d-d-destroyed!" He was completely oblivious to the punch that was thrown.

[JustTheRider]

Light quietly sat at his desk, writing down criminal's names in the Death Note as usual. His shades weren't open and his window wasn't either, so it was almost completely dark besides his television, which he had on as background noise. Light, exhausted, felt like he was going to fall asleep. Seems like I overdid it.. Light closed the Death Note, and sat his pen down.

He opened the door, and what he saw was not what he expected at all. A whole new space. Not his hallway at all. Wondering exactly what the hell was going on, Light grabbed his watch, his Death Note and his pen and stepped into the room.

All of his belongings disappeared right in front of his eyes. T-the..Death Note is..!! Light looked at his empty hands in shock, without the Death Note he couldn't continue to be Kira. Looking around, he found himself in some fancy place. The door that had once led from his room was a simple guest room of some description.

He saw a bunch of people arguing, people he probably couldn't trust. Whatever had happened wasn't the cause of Ryuk or the Shinigami Realm, it was something supernatural. Knowing better than to ask those people who were probably in the same situation as him, Light decided to focus on where he was and how to get out of here and back to his room as possible.

Hoping he wasn't seen, he quietly went down a hallway in front of him. If I don't get back to my room, L will grow confused..everyone will.. Light thought to himself.

[Mtntopview]

"Gold!? Treasure!? Neat!" Bender shouted before letting out a rather menacing chuckle and rubbing his hands together darkly. Oh yes. This place definitely had things worth stealing. He also didn't seem to make much of a reaction to Fry being punched in the face. That human was hardy. He'd live. Now, back to the gold and treasure ...

---

"Ow, that actually hurt!" Fry shouted as he landed on the floor from the strength of the punch. It wasn't like he was a bully or anything, in fact, when he was younger he was kind of a loser. The only thing that made him look mean was that he was an idiot. Even he knew that he wasn't that smart ... unless it was about Star Trek. That stuff was cool.

"... it's just a riddle of some sort. I'm not sure if whoever left this out here would like us to go and try to achieve whatever gold is mentioned..." Yuno said with a passive tone, as if to discourage the rather greedy machine about the loot that this place has. For all they know... it could be bait to their demise. Just why were they here? It confused the Second Diary Owner... and that was when she checked for her phone... her only way to keep an eye on Yukki. It was GONE. She had gone completely silent, a look of shock and anger appeared on her face for a split second before she reverted back to her childish self.

As for Yukiteru, he was quite scared of some that were realizing that their belongings were gone, and if this kind of attitude stayed in their possible group... it spelled absolute trouble. "H-Hey... I'm sure we'll get our things back... in some way. I mean, Yuno and I lost our things as well..." Yukiteru tried to reason with the outraged Toby, and maybe get Tim to help out. This was much more work than keeping Yuno in check...

---

"Um... excuse me, sir?" a shy feminine voice hesitated to speak at first, but she had to speak up now since Light happened to be headed in an area that was supposed to be closed off at this time. Closing the door behind her, a maid that seemed almost around his own age group had revealed herself, and she held an envelope in her hands.

"I...I believe that you're one of the guests... that were invited here... um, if you could make your way back to the entrance hall and show the other guests this envelope... that would be a great help," the maid sounded uneasy at first, but she was wishing that Light would take this envelope and read out the message to the others that were apparently 'guests' here.

[GreatSalmon]

(I want to save my prologue for later use.)

Next to Yuno appeared another figure, one smaller than the rest of the crowd. The creature had waited for the girl to finish speaking, almost a challenge to his patience. Trig watched her read from the plaque, looking interested at what she took from it. I say the word "interested" very loosely, as he really didn't give a hot shit about what was being said. His interest was attracted to Yuno herself, her mouth more specifically, as he awaited for when it would stop moving. When it had Trig's smile became real. He clapped aloud at her performance, an act to make himself look attentive. She was probably reading a memorial for some dead broad or whatever who cares she stopped talking; and now he could ask his question. The question he prayed she could answer:

"Great performance indeed." His generous clap began to fade. Trig's next question itched at his brain when he asked it; it practically overlapped his last statement.

"Where are my guns?"

[Spartan2961]

"Oh hello Yu-u-kiteru and Yuno. This is Boone and i'm Six" Six had responded seeming to struggle pronouncing Yukiteru's name. With all the events passed by Six had walked over to where Yuno was reading the plaque as well but kept some distance between her and Yuno. "Oh dear that's a little creepy" Six comments not seeming all that affected by it though she has heard and seen worse.

Boone walked over to where Six was. He usually let Six do most of the talking. "Looks like something the Legion would have.....to some extent" Boone comments about the message on the plaque.

Both didn't notice the look Yuno had for that split second.
