So what's everyone up to?

Château de Lalune

Helena Mercury

Helena wouldn't call this particular Friday an average Friday. She had wrapped a shooting for her latest job on Thrusday, and had spent Friday sleeping in, just up till the clubs opened up for the night. It was around 4 PM that she started getting ready, making sure to shower, shave, and get dressed for a fun night out. Not a girl's night out, just a fun night out alone. Most of her girlfriends were too busy this particular night to join her, so she went to one of her favorite clubs.

Once there, she took a seat in a booth, and was enjoying some alone time till a man came in, slide her a drink and an envelope. "Open this when you're alone, preferably at home," he whispered, and then vanished. Helena barely had time to register what had happened as she looked at the thick envelope in her hands. She shoved it very quickly into her purse and got up and left the club. She no longer felt safe being out by herself.

Once she got home, she opened the envelop. A black card, like one of those super fancy credit cards the directors on her movie used, fell out, as well as a plane ticket, and a letter. She picked everything up and went to read the letter first.

Congratulations Helena Mercury,

You have been selected for the Vorace Lalune Award for Excellence. You will find your plane ticket inside this envelope, as well as a credit card for you to pay for any expenses you may need to cover. The pin number for the card is 0903. Use it as needed.

Your agent has already been informed of your sudden departure and has been informed you will be busy for the next week or so.

Au revoir,

Agatha Lalune

"That's odd. Not an Award I've ever heard of before, or even in my industry. But sure! Why not! I haven't been on an actual vacation in a while." Helena flipped over the plane ticket and realized she was going to France. Good thing she had a passport!

The weekend flew by after that. Helena spent her weekend doing laundry, packing, and informing her friends she'd be out of town for a bit, and this time not for work. Soon it was Monday. She got the airport, got on the flight, and soon clonked out. When she awoke, she was in France, and at the airport. Once she deplaned, and headed to the luggage pick up area, she saw someone there holding a sign saying her name. She greeted the man, who helped her with her luggage, and lead her to the limo. She slipped in and went to close the door. The man informed her that they would be there for a bit, waiting for the other guests. When Helena asked him what he meant, he informed her they were waiting for three others. She shrugged and relaxed in the limo and closed her eyes. "Cool. I'll just wait here then. I guess I was the first to arrive. Yay me." She chuckled a bit as she mostly spoke to herself. She did have to wonder who the other guests were, and what they'd be like.

I'll work on my post in a bit, I know, no rush, just I got a few other things on my plate. Like making another CS for a different rp that another friend is running elsewhere. Wooo. *wiggles arms*

Sorry y'all... I kidnapped her for a bit to have my way with her. Mwahaha.

As Shira stepped into the tavern, she realized it was dark all around her. She felt like she had stepped into a room full of water, rather than just a dark room. The first step felt like mud, and the second felt like she wasn't getting any further into the room. It took her a moment to realize, but she wasn't able to breath. She gasped and clutched at her throat and then flailed around the room a bit. Her vision blurred as she realized she was passing out. "Oh... so this...is how..." She then blacked out.

She awoke with a gasp, as she realized she could breath again. She looked around the room frantically, and realized she was sitting in one the most comfiest chairs she had ever sat in. In front of her were three doors. A door of copper with iron fixings, a wooden door with copper fixings, and an iron door. However, all three doors lacked a way to open them, and as she looked around and realized there were no windows, and no way she could have fallen into this room. She willed her notebook into her hand, and a pen appeared with it. She smiled and started writing.

Woooo!

Shira looked at girl in front of the door and offered her a small smile. "Nothing wrong with being cautious, but next time, maybe not block the doorway." As she looked around at the three other strangers there, she couldn't help but have a feeling of protection wash over her. She knew she barely knew these people, or even their names, but she had to protect them.

She couldn't do that in the field. She instinctively took a step towards the inside of the tavern and turned towards the others. "C'mon, something tells me we should all head inside instead of waiting out here for whatever is gonna happen. I think our best bet is to head inside." Shira turned towards the group, looking them over again. There was a boy that barely looked like he was legal in any sense of the word, and a woman that looked around her age. She knew in her gut that she had to lead the way for this group of ragtag people, even if she had never met them before. She took the step into the darkness of the tavern and let everything fade away.

I should have a post up tomorrow. Just got home an hour ago and need sleep.

A World Aside, Next World

Shira could feel her eyes fluttering open as she groaned. Last thing she... huh, that was odd. She couldn't remember that much it seemed, except her name. She sat up and looked around, noticing that she was in a place she did not recognize, but to be fair, she barely knew Adam from Steve at the moment. Her eyes seemed to adjust to the bright blue sky above and the sun. As she sat up, she realized that she was holding something in each of her hands. Her right had an odd green composition notebook, and in her left, there was an odd green coin. As she looked at the large coin, roughly the size of her palm, she could feel something buzzing in not only her hand, but her head. This coin... She stood up and tucked the coin into her jeans pocket and frowned a bit as she looked around.

She opened her notebook, read briefly and then closed it and sighed a bit. Seems she had gotten herself into something interesting. She smiled a bit at that thought and tucked the notebook under her arm, and remembered the letter again. She shrugged and walked over to the tavern, and noticed a woman who looked maybe slightly younger than her opening the door and peering in to the very tavern she was planning on walking into. "Excuse me, can I pass by to get in? I kinda need to get in sooner rather than later." She offered a smile to this stranger at the door.
