The Midnight Train to Nowhere

The move-along post is up ^^

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

"Oh my, oh my, I didn't thing she would come again...not after we pushed a barrel of chemicals into the lake." The fish-headed mayor of Siren lake tapped on his table repeatedly with fish-like hands. "Its been getting worse, hah, this is just horrible. Because of that," he took in a breath of air, cursing the siren to cheesecake hell. "Because of that siren the town's empty, we rarely get visitors because, well, she always tries to drown them in the lake."

Serenade's eyebrows twitched in irritation. "And you didn't tell us?" She practically exploded. "We're supposed to keep those humans alive not lead them to some death."

"I'm sorry, I honestly thought you knew." He frowned though his glare wasn't apologetic, it was accusatory. "All competent guides know."

"You see, my sister and I are more of musicians then guides...we're new to this." The black rabbit spat before slamming both hands onto mayor Spicy Tuna's desk. "Now, you will help me find them or I'll tell the queen it's your fault all her precious humans are gone." The tone of her voice was threatening and the mayor gulped, immediately getting to his feet so he could assist with the search.

Meanwhile...

Dissonance was still calling for the humans, hands cupped around her mouth. The sisters had decided to split up so they could cover more ground. Eventually, she heard the sound of water and walked blindly through the fog and into the nearby lake. She squinted eventually seeing a boat and the humans! Gosh, her sister would be glad to know they were okay. Dissonance yanked down on both her ears a wide smile lighting up her entire face. At this point in time the song had subsided and the lake looked plain, dull in comparison to most of Nowhere magical streams and oceans. The white hare snapped out of her thoughts, so someone had saved the humans. She would definitely need to thank them...

Was that Songbird and Brandy in the boat and...she could have sword she saw a colorful tail surface from beneath the blackened lake.

Holy Cellery! It really was them. "Song! Grump! Martini!" Dissonance yelled, waving energetically from where she stood.

Harper coughed up some water, his sister and all the happy images that had rushed back were beginning to fade. He let out a groan, turning over only to have his hand slap Hakuren across the face. At the contact he jolted into a sitting position and the world spun, his head felt a lot heavier than usual and a decaying sort of taste lingered in his mouth. Just what was in that lake? He shuddered at the thought of corpses lying deep under...it was Nowhere and everything was possible. Slowly, he propped himself onto his elbows, Iro and Leila were safe on shore and Jasper and Hakuren were beside him. His eyes locked onto songbird before he was hit by another coughing fit. "W-What happened?"

"You guys came just in time!" The voice was clearly Dissonance and the white rabbit huffed and puffed as she ran towards the boat. "Martini!" Came another energetic squeal. "I knew I could count on you to convince them! I knew you'd get them to come along."

Harper decided to lie down again, all the screaming was making his head pound.

"There you are...Songbird, Brandy, and Martini. I'm glad to see you guys." This time it was Serenade's voice, she was out of breath from dragging the mayor with her as quickly as possible.

Mayor Spicy Tuna stared at the drenched humans worriedly before his eyes landed onto the earplugs on the Song and Brandy. He gulped nervously and fixed his tie. "Um, hello, I see you two know about this place. I'm the mayor and Serenade informed me about the second item on the list. I would like to talk to all of you about that, especially you." His eyes landed on Songbird. "I'm sure you know a Siren's Song can't be physically collected." He pointed to the item on the list. "Anyways, welcome to the town of Yonder...uh this is odd, but do you have any questions, perhaps?"

At this point most the humans were beginning to recover and the song was no more.

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

Pfft, awesome post, Kathi-chan xD I feel bad for Haku or maybe I don't. Hehe ^^ how is everyone doing on this fine mornight?

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

Easily, Tiberius lifted them by the collars of their hospital gowns. It was over and Lucien knew it, so he surrendered and allowed the guild leader to drag him along. It wasn't so bad and at least they weren't being lectured or anything like that. It was peaceful, well, until the yelling. Lucien perked up looking right and left, had the mummy revealed itself? Perhaps it was as horrific as he had hoped and the thought alone brought a wicked grin to his face. However, it wasn't a mummy and instead a wheelchair zipped towards them at breakneck speed...

Lucien let out a groan, his cheek pressed onto the cool tiled floor. Slowly, he propped himself onto his elbows and noticed both Moira and Syed on the floor as well. "Oh, hey guys, funny running into you like this, yeah?" Grinning, he pushed himself to his feet and attempted to walk off, but he couldn't. Tiberius' grip was just as strong as ever. A familiar voice reached him and he turned to see Dylan being dragged off by a nurse. He gave his friend two thumbs up, and let out a low wolf whistle, snickering when he had finished. This day was definitely an interesting one. Well, almost every day with the pride was an interesting one.

"Sorry, Lucy..."

"Mhm? This is actually pretty funny." He grinned brightly at Trixie, this time giving her two thumbs up. Having her for a partner in crime was pretty fun. Tiberius lifted Moira off the floor and Lucien nearly fell over, he flailed but managed to keep his balance since he was still in the guild leader's grip.

“Honestly… to think that you people managed to prevent Abraxis from being summoned… unbelievable…”

Lucien chuckled, grinning at both Trixie and Moira. "What can we say? We're awesome, aren't wah!" Before he could finish his question he was dropped onto the floor with Moira and Trixie. He remained curled up on the ground for a bit before getting to his feet, and giving the others a wave...was that a mummy? Wait, wasn't that Estelle. He let out a defeated sigh upon realizing she was the mummy all along and puffed out his cheeks, so much for a great discovery. He folded his arms across his chest and mumbled. "Nice to see everyone."

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

Awesome post, Kimchi! I feel bad for poor Jasper xD and yep, yep, new humans defo keep things fresh, so far I've gotten 2/4 sheets, when everyone sends theirs in I'll pick two or three at most and they'll join us for some fun 8D. Also, I look forward to your post Green.

Good idea, Songbird knows his way around so maybe he told Brandu and Marti and they got ready for everything. Okay, okay, I'll give you guys time to make your heroic entrances. Do you think you can pull it off by tomorrow night? (GMT+ 8) Next week is midterms for me, so I'd like to post before then and I don't want the pace to slow down by a lot, so humans 8D I'll be expecting posts every three days as usual.

Jasper, Harper, Leila and Iro are in need of saving I believe.

Also, you guys can start posting as them around the end of this chapter ;)! I have a surprise planned for the end. I'll PM you and Kei-chan tomorrow. I just got back from school and just want to watch a movie and be all lazy xD so I guess I don't mind missing my three day mark today, you guys can blame Kathi-chan and Kei-chan :P. I'll defo be posting tomorrow though, so Kathi-chan and Kei-chan if you can save them before tomorrow night it'll be appreciated.

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World
