Night Scene, Night 6 -- Once again, Twizzler was unable to get a good nights' rest. Luckily, however, she wasn't awaken by a scream. No – Syrill had left his TV on before falling asleep, and Twizzler just didn't want to get up to turn it off. So when the scream came, Twizzler was ready. She was out the door in a moments time (thoughtfully remembering to zip the tent shut), and went to go check where it was coming from. A few feet away, she saw malibu with teeth marks all around her arms. malibu was trying to stop the bleeding with some towels she had brought along. At the sound of Twizzler's steps, she flinched and looked up. When she saw it was just Twizzler, she smiled in relief. “I'm sorry. Did I wake you? I didn't mean to scream so loudly, but when you find yourself as an attempted midnight snack, it's not very fun at all...” “Oh no, it's fine, malibu. I was going for a walk anyways,” Twizzler told her. Seeing that malibu seemed to be taking care of herself very well, Twizzler went ahead and went on that “walk she was supposed to be on.” As she was walking around, she noticed something she didn't recognize the shape of in front of her. Curious, she walked until she came to where it was. The light seemed to be coming from a very well made stone statue of Ammer. “Hmm, that's very nice,” Twizzler pondered. “I didn't know Erwit had one of those...” Tapping it lightly, she noticed that the clothes the statue was wearing were real. She hadn't noticed Pixa and pheonix discussing softly behind the statue. When she started talking, they came from behind and stared at her. “Um. Twizzler. That -is- Ammer,” Pixa told her. “I found some tracks, and I think the attacker was searching for someone else, but couldn't find them.” Sure enough, as soon as Pixa finished talking, a ghost-like warrior woman rose up from the statue. “I am a Valkyrie, chooser of the slain!” she called, and then flew, screeching, over to the book of myths. Twizzler blinked, and watched the Valkyrie fly away. After tapping the stone Ammer to see what would happen, she decided that nothing was going to chip off and she'd deal with it later. So she continued walking. After awhile, she realized she had not yet been in the Castle. Although she had merely rented the land, he owners of the Castle had given her free reign... well, she'd go check it out now. Inside the castle, she spotted Mongrel again. Mongrel was looking up from a piece of paper in her hand. She gave a shout of excitement and screamed, “This is it!” Mongrel leaped forward and opened the door in front of her. As she stepped forward, Twizzler watched in surprise as Mongrel tumbled and fell. Whatever Twizzler expected, it didn't happen. Moments later, there was a loud -thump- and a loud crack. Twizzler raced around trying to find some stairs. At long last, she finally did – and at the bottom of them there was a room. In the center of the room, she saw Mongrel. The light was just starting to flash, and up rose a womanly ghost-figure. The woman looked at Twizzler solemnly. “I am Cassandra. I warned those of Troy that what they were letting in the gates was not a gift, yet they would not listen... would not listen...” And then the ghost faded away towards where the Book of Myths was being kept. Not sure what else to do, Twizzler wandered back outside the castle to find some brownies that could deal with Mongrel's body. As she stepped outside, she heard the tune again – however, this time it was being played in a more mournful tune than any she had ever heard before. She barely noticed that May had returned and that DM was on fire! was being led away. Once she had calmed down a bit more, she took out her dice to roll it. Noticing that it still said “Invalid dice code”, she sighed and put it back in her pocket.
malibu was munched on, but survived. Ammer was turned to stone. He was a Valkyrie. Mongrel fell out of a door into a pit, and was killed. She was Cassandra. May has returned. DM was on fire! has been led away. She may not vote or use role powers, however, she may not be targeted either.
Apologies everyone! Labyrinth and Night Results will be late, once again. I have a party to go to and thought I'd have everything finished... but that was before I realized I had made a mistake in my notes and had to go back and fix everything.
