The Midnight Train to Nowhere

Songbird, do you dare taunt the midnight man? YOU SHALL PAY FOR YOUR SINS IN BLOOD //shot

Also guys >w< we might be getting two new people since Leon and Haku will pretty much be exiting at the end of this chapter. New people should do the trick and help liven things up a tad :D hope you guys don't mind~

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

Welcome back, Rex! Congratulations >w<)/ it sounds like you had a blast!

I commissioned someone on a virtual pet site called Marapets for the pic. I went on to check and found out I had some old retired stuff from 2007 or so, sold them all, became a millionaire, spent all my points on commissions then wound up broke xD it was worth it though, haha. I'll post sometime in the evening, have fun at work Rex and I hope you all have a swell mornight.

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

Pffft, Leila is officially a hero now. Well, at least to Riley xD

Thanks for the grand setup Four. After you mentioned the drop in temperature and Leila's jar going dark, I just couldn't resist. Because we all know what that means 8D ahahaha. Good job you guys, keep up the good work and don't be afraid to add in your own scares.

Group one, I hope you don't mind, my post was a tad conversation heavy. I just want them to get to know each other some more since Harper hasn't really interacted with Lesley and neither Lesley nor Leon have interacted much with him either :D you guys are free to do whatever you want with the room and if you have anything planned that involves moving them out then you guys are free to do that too.

Group two, the hallway is now completely dark :D wherever they end up next will up to you guys. Have fun with the setup and don't worry, kay? If you want them to run into a bathroom or the attic then go for it, we defo appreciate all the help we can get.

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

Group One

Harper had a blank expression on his face. Ever since they boarded the Midnight Train, they had been thrown into predicament after predicament. First the star fisher, and now some demon. They never got a break, and the weight of every new quest felt heavy on his shoulders. "We'll be alright." He told Lesley, Martini, and Jasper.

Avian was calm and that was relief. As long as they listened to him, they'd be okay.

Leon inched closer towards both Martini and Lesley, aside from Haku he had always thought they were cool and he wanted to befriend them one day. "I never got to say this before, so I might as well say it before we head into the unknown." Leon's cheeks turned a slight shade of pink and he fumbled with the crown on his head. "Martini, I think your work is just fabulous and Lesley, your hair is so bouncy and beautiful, what kind of shampoo do you use?" He chuckled rather awkwardly before giving the pink haired man a good-natured tap on the back.

Seeing them, it made Harper smile. He didn't know how long it had been since they had entered Nowhere, but all the crazy adventures had definitely brought them closer together. At first all of them had been nothing but strangers, but now they were friends, and they'd go home, together. "I haven't seen an armory, but Ace and I did find a creepy basement. Whoever lived here didn't like the bunny guards at all."

Avian told them to keep an eye on their jars then began moving forward.

"Alright," Harper turned to look at the others. "Jasper, are you okay? And he's right, let's get this over with quickly." The boy moved forward then called out to Avian softly. "Hey Avian, I know that you didn't have to come here with us, so thank you very much." He gave the soldier a small bow then followed him, the jar tucked beneath one arm and the candle held tightly in his other hand.

They headed down the left corridor but were quickly ushered in the opposite direction.

"The bugs are going crazy." Leon hissed as the insects in his glass jar began scrambling around.

There was no time to waste and Avian kicked open a door. Instantly, they began scrambling inside. It appeared to be a child's room.



The place smelled of decay and it screamed eerie. Harper forced a chuckle before moving deeper into the room. Toy boxes were scattered across the floor and a small horse toy made a creepy creaking sound as it swayed back and forth in place. In an attempt to ease the tension he turned to his fellow Lost Souls. "So, if you don't mind me asking, why did you guys get on the train?" Back in Yonder Jasper, Ace, and him had talked about their wishes but he didn't know why the others had gotten on the train and he was curious.

"Geez, this place is horrible." Leon made a face then turned to look at Harper. "Oh, I guess I wanted to find myself." His eyebrows furrowed. Funny, he didn't enjoy telling people about himself because he didn't know who he was. But here he was, talking to people who were practically strangers. "Living in my father's shadow for so long, sometimes I think I'll lose myself, I don't want to be a part of the corporation and I don't want much to do with my dad or my brother...I just want to be Leon." He was frowning now but he shrugged if off then looked at the others. "Why did you guys get into the train?"

Harper frowned. "I wanted to save my sister. She's sick and Jasper, she wants to save someone important too." His expression turned steely. "And that's exactly what we're going to do, right Jasper?" The boy mustered up a smile even though dredging up memories made him feel empty.

They had already collected three items so far, and they weren't stopping anytime soon. Everyone had entered the train for completely different reasons, but now, they were in this together. "Do you think he'd hide a sword down here?" The boy began looking around before he paused in front of a large mirror. For a moment, he could have sworn he had seen a flash of red eyes, but when he spun around nothing was there. However, the bugs in his lamp began to flicker and a cool breeze passed through the room.

Group Two

"Psh, you nearly gave me a heart attack when you screamed." Riley shuddered, perhaps walking into the room without checking hadn't been the smartest idea. "That just makes us fair now." Songbird began yelling for someone to open the door and suddenly the windows flew open.

Riley stared into the darkness and could have sworn she saw shadowy outlines in the distance.

Songbird slammed into the door and Riley shot him a glare. "You're making too much noise." The girl whined before practically launching herself at the item hunter. The light their jars created wasn't exactly bright so she wanted to be as close to the guide as possible. "I think I saw something," she whispered desperately before pulling Songbird away from the door. "He'll hear you!" Whatever courage she had at the beginning of the game was ebbing away and like the item hunter, she wanted out of the spooky room as soon as possible. The girl twisted the doorknob right and left before pressing her ear against the wall.

"Guys? Would you mind hurrying it up a little bit? I think there's something in here with us."

The freaking bookshelf fell over and suddenly the bugs in their lamp began to flicker. OH GOD, they were going to die. She stared at Songbird with a horrified expression before the door flung open, causing the two of them to tumble out into the hallway.

Riley remained flat on the ground before her eyes flitted to the person by the door.

Hakuren tapped both Inadi and Ace on the shoulder. Brandy had told them to look for a switch but apparently Leila had somehow managed to open the door. "Looks like the pup's got some tricks up her sleeve." Hakuren gave her a smile then stared at the jar in his hands. The bugs had began to act strange.

"Leila!" Riley hissed before leaping to her feet. "You saved us!" She tackled the poor girl into a hug, practically shaking her silly in the process. Riley would have continued doing so for quite sometime when the lamp by her feet suddenly died. "OH CRAP." She grabbed the fallen item hunter by his scarf then yanked him up. "Something is in there, we have to go ASAP."

Hakuren chuckled, looks like the fiery flame mage had bitten off more than she could chew. "Relax, it looks like you two have seen a ghost." The ice mage placed a hand on Leila's shoulder. "Good job, puppy, now we should inspect the room further for clues."

"No," Riley pretty much began shaking Ace and Inadi by this point. "Something is in there--!"

And just as she had finished her sentence, a cold feeling settled across the hall and every lamp was snuffed out. An eerie whisper rendered them speechless, as a voice that sounded like hissing snakes resonated across the dark halls.

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

On second thought, I'll get a Harper post up tonight. No worries Four, it won't interfere with your Leila post ^^

I'll move group two along tomorrow. Let's put an end to those witches! Also, it's been a tad quiet on the OOC. How are you guys doing?

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

Lute fell to the floor, but before he could go and help, the photographer guy stepped in.

He began dusting Lute off before he was pulled off into the dance floor. Lucien grinned a little, everyone was so lively and some of them were starting to look a tad silly. Was this what they had done when they had gotten drunk in Los Paraisos. Oh joy, it must have been a riot. Too bad they were to hammered to witness it though. Lute stomped forward only for him to crash into Rose?

The summoner winced out of sympathy, but instead of knocking the virtuoso all the way to Jupiter, she asked him to dance?

Uh, well, that was good. He turned to give Syed a stare filled with disbelief, but his friend was no longer beside him. He looked around and saw the mage being yanked off into the dance floor. Well, at least they'd have someone watching them up close, yeah?

“I’m glad to see your friends enjoying themselves. Quite a party, hmm?

He turned his head to see Tobias with his hand extended. The summoner narrowed his eyes a little, but hey, at least the guy wasn't going after his drunken friends. He seemed pretty polite too. He wondered why Dylan and his friend were no longer in good terms, but decided to entertain that thought some other time. "Yeah, you sure know how to throw a party, everyone looks like they're having a grand time." They shook hands and Lucien leaned back into his seat, eyes flitting from Syed, to Amy, to Lute and Rose. "Lucien Maddox, it's nice to meet you."

He stopped one of the waiters and asked for a soda before returning his attention to Tobias. Soooo, what did he want? Did he want advice on how to apologize to Dylan or something? "You must like parties, sooo you and Dylan? You guys used to be friends, yeah? What's up now, why the fallout, did you steal one of his paintings and sell it behind his back or something? They're really good."

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World
