Gahhhh...the site's been so annoying lately. I'll have a post up sometime today :D How are you guys doing?

And, aye aye captain! ^^

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

Agreed, a little back and forth definitely helps establish relationships. I'm loving how the Jasper and Lesley relationship has grown ^^ and I look forward to seeing everyone else strengthen their bonds. Those posts have been a joy to read.

Chapter four, has began! Compared to chapter three, it'll be shorter and focus more on character development and relationship building, so guys make sure to grab this opportunity. The three of us have something planned for later on, but for the next 2-4 cycles I want you guys to focus on interacting with each other.

Oblivion should be back in a few days, after she reads the discussion, the revamped rules will also apply to her. I want to see Leon grow and build relationships with the others in this chapter because right now he's a ghost and the only character she interacted with (Hakuren) while still with us is pretty much a NPC now. Guys, if you ever need his powers or want to do a bit of interaction, feel free to move Haku around and use him.

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

This was their first time in Nowhere's dark side, in fact, the queen had told them nothing about it.

Nowhere was a world made of dreams and wishes, but that was only one side. The other side was made of nightmares and despair, and both were separated by a boundary. Some creatures from the dark side could not cross over because they were hated and some would die if they were to so much as see sunlight. Nobodies from the light side could cross over but they tended to stay away because the dark side had horrible, horrible things.

The lost soul's destination was the Forest of the Ancients, a horrific and dark place just past the dark side's borders. Most travelers who entered ended up lost forever, some say the trees ended up eating them and others say their disappearances were the witches' doing.

Five human days had passed since they had spoken to the dragons. They did not return to the castle, but instead rested in Sol. However, it wasn't a peaceful rest. After they returned, a messenger rushed them back to the castle. One of the witches had invaded in search for gems but while everyone else had decided to run away, Vince stood his ground and began yelling at them.

He was turned to stone and the messengers said that it took him only one Solarian minute to die.

It wasn't the worst way to die, well, not in Nowhere. Most of them didn't know him very well, but it was another death and like all those who died before him, it hurt. Hakuren had frowned and muttered something about Vince being just like Axel. Harper didn't really know what to say and Riley, the girl went quiet for a few days. She didn't know him that well, but she had been with him and Lesley since the beginning.

They gave him a small funeral and after that things were quite somber. They rested and Tobias gave them all the information he could.

Not much was known about the witches but they were extremely powerful. They had never left the dark side in the past but for some reason, they had kidnapped a few dragon riders, turned Aven's dragons against Sol and sparked up a war.

The lost souls trudged through the forests of the ancients, flashlights in hand and steps wary. The night sky above them was pitch black and the air freezing cold. They had been walking for what felt like hours, but the giant trees and skeleton-like branches all looked the same and for some reason their compass had stopped working and an ill-timed breeze had blown their map away.

"Hey guys, does that tree look familiar to you?" Harper glanced around, shoulders drooped and eyebrows creased. "I think we've been walking in circles, but I'm not too sure. Avian? Is there any way to tell without a compass?" The prince had warned them about the forest and had even volunteered to follow after them but the royal Dragoons didn't allow that and in the end volunteered for the job themselves.

"Spooky how the compass suddenly stopped working." Riley gave him a devilish grin before popping up beside Songbird. Ever since the compass broke Riley decided to pass the time by asking the item hunter all sorts of questions, and while some were smart things like "have you been to this part of Nowhere." the other questions were just outright silly.

Hakuren looked as smug as always and he trailed behind them, smiling. "It can't be a coincidence. The witches are probably behind it, but if they come to get us we can always sacrifice the bear." He jabbed his staff in Jasper's direction and let out a low chuckle.

"Very funny, these things could kill us, Haku." Harper kicked at the ground then sighed, but before he could look too upset Riley gave him a pat on the back and took the lead.

"If we keep walking in a straight line, we're bound to reach somewhere, so let's not get too down, kay?"

If this were the human world then Harper would have agreed, walking in a straight line would get them somewhere at the least, but this was Nowhere. In this world, one plus one was a yellow humming bird, and walking in a straight line, especially in a cursed forest was probably the equivalent of running in zigzags.

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

Anonymous said He felt as if this Nowhere place where humans randomly stumbled into was just a more whimsical version of "Saw" with the Queen playing Jigsaw.

AHAHAHAH! Anon, that post was perfect. It had me laughing so much. Lesleyyyyy <3 hehehe, poor, poor Jasper :D

Tch, the site was being all wonky again but it's up now, so I'll get to work on a beginning for chapter 4. Also, remember I'm only asking for a post per cycle. This isn't daily posting or anything, and while I do love activity just keep in mind that multiple posts per cycle might leave a few people behind and we don't want that. Though if there is a burst in activity (like for this cycle) then you guys are free to do what you all did <3

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

D'awww, nice post Four. Leila was absolutely adorable.

Alright, I'm going to work on an end for this chapter now ^^

However, I might begin chapter four tomorrow since it's getting late and KIMCHI, those pics *breaks an egg and watches it sizzle* HARUKA <3 I might do a pic dump thing too, kukuku >w< *leaves to write post*

Edit: That was long, but phew, we're done! Chapter three has ended and chapter four will begin tomorrow. (^w^)/

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

8D I have no idea, but it's super creative and I wouldn't mind more <3

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

Pffft, this chapter is coming to an end xD what terrible thing could I do?

How dare you, I'll have you know, some of my surprises did not contain character torment :P and some were pleasant.

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

Oh celery, ahahaha, I'm sensing a pattern here.

She kisses Harper then throws up. She eyes Inadi then throws up xD. Is that her reaction to love related things? The only time she didn't throw up was when she kissed Haku ;) does that mean the Ice king is the one she really, really wants. //shot

Also, food and ships are important 8D and torment too, muahahaha.

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

Pffft, I'm taking all of you down with me! SUFFER



After that video, I pity Inadi even more. Also, do I sense a new ship >w<? Gah, you guys are making me even more pumped! I can't wait to get a post up. 8D I've got a little surprise planned for the ending, kukuku.
