Delving the dark Class {Closed} 6/6 slots open

[Muramasa Maya]

Not good! With straight-forwards, naive Azusa being completely incompetent at something requiring mental athletics like a riddle, she wanted to believe Shana would be able to come up with an answer without trouble...but it seemed the riddle was beyond her as well. Or you know, being thrown over a wall in a nightmare world made it hard to focus on something.

I mean, the more 'physical' the riddled voice became, the less the orange haired priestess was able to focus. It was better when it was a voice before it revealed its...grotesque, rotten body. "...What....is...that??" The orange-haired child spoke out, quickly becoming more pale. It was so...deformed; she couldn't tell whether it was originally supposed to be a human or not. Not that it mattered; at this point its horrific body was so twisted, just looking at it made her stomach churn and threaten to throw up. (Was that pieces of its skin falling off?!?)

It presented another verse of riddle, but it made no difference to Azusa. The moment it showed itself and she began to panic, no amount of content or hints would help her solve the question. "M-more time...I can't think..." She whimpered, retreating steadily until she was against the wall. Which was good, since her knee's suddenly began to feel extremely weak...too weak for her to stand on her own. "...Sh-shanna....answer the riddle....please!..."

...Fortunately, their savior came from the sky in time, landing next to Azusa and Shana. Not only that but...being able to think through the riddle despite seeing the putrid deformity? Thank the gods for Kagari! "Nothing?...Nothing? That is...cheating. Thats so unfair..." Azusa spoke aloud, running it through what she managed to remember of the riddle. It...fit...which must have been why she couldn't come up with an answer in the first place. "...I'm sorry I was useless, Shana...Without Kagari..." Well...She didn't want to imagine. Regardless, between Shana and Kagari's presence and his answer, Azusa managed to calm herself. This thing caught her off guard...But she wouldn't let it happen again, even if it was unimpressed with the answer Kagari came up with. Not it, or whatever lurking horrors awaited behind it.

Hide and seek? Noroi looked at Akuma to see what he thought. He looked as confused and on guard as he was, but did he see what he saw? The change in the scenery? He definitely heard Kenji's voice ringing onwards. 'What's going on? What's happening..?!' Noroi thought frantically. This couldn't be real... Could it? The cold, dark presence inside of Noroi seemed to be moving, somehow living. The voices continued to murmer in Noroi's head, telling him to hunt, to kill something, someone, anything, anyone. Noroi nodded his head slightly. Kenji's voice still ringed in his head, and the scenery changed each time, from the warm beautiful park to the cold bloody field.

On the topic of hide and seek, Noroi nodded his head slightly again. He didn't trust these girls one bit, and he reached into his pocket for a kunai or anything to use as a weapon against them. He pulled out a kunai and ran off as the girls started to count.

"O-One two...b-buckle my shoe..... Th-three four... Sh-shut the d-door" he said in a sing song voice as he ran through the park and the field to find a hiding place. His scleras turned inky black and his irises turned a glowing Crimson as he climbed up a tree, waiting for them to find him, waiting patiently

The three girls grinned at each other. They really could play with these boys. “Let's play hide and seek.” Rena suggested with a small giggle. The three girls grinned at each other. They really could play with these boys. “Let's play hide and seek.” Rena suggested with a small giggle. “You boys hide, and we will find you.”
“We will give you a good length of time, how does a minute sound?” The other girls said in unison. “You'll have fun we know that we will.”

Akuma smirked this is just the opportunity he needed to escape these crazy girl and meet back up with the rest of the group. But first things first he had to get Noroi and himself out of there before they kill us. Akuma watched Noroi run across the park searching for a hiding spot. Akuma also noticed the kunai in his teammate’s hand. “Good he notices that something’s not right either” Akuma thought to himself as he watched Noroi hide in a tree.
“Alright time to find a hiding spot,” Akuma said as he ran around the park looking for a suitable hiding spot. After a few seconds of looking Akuma decided to hide in a giant bush. “When the the opportunity presents itself I’m going to grab Noroi and escape these evil girls” He said as watched the three girls from his bush

[This slow pace is le killing me.]

Hato was brought from his stupor when Seiako sensei had come to his aid. With the help of her jutsu they began to get control of the maze. As they reunited with the teacher whom at one point had reprimanded him for being late, he quickly saw aught was amiss. They had reunited now only for some strange being to appear and threaten to whisk Seika away. Hato felt that determination to leap forward and overcome his past mistake. "W-WAIT!" He shouted as his fat body lept as mightily as it could. His finger but barely glanced the woman's spiritual flesh - when the power of whatever being whisked him away as well, by virtue of being in contact with the woman. Hato awoke in the place with the mirrors. This time everyone else seemed to be unconcious, feebly staring into the mirror like zombies... Is this what being a shinobi is like? Even if you needed to go through all of this to kick other people's asses like his grandfather said... He just wasn't cut out for this kind of stuff. Hato head in his hands for a moment before determing that he needed to go to the office and find someone to get help... as much help as any one in the mortal world could be to those trapped in a spirit world that is.

OOC: If we're ending then that's fine. I'm kind of disapointed

I agree. I am going to give out rewards for this class to those who have posted in the last round (since my last IC post) since it has been close to a month. The answer to the riddle was nothing - great job. That gave you free passage anyways. Danforth was the bad guy, using you all as bait to get to the prize but the answer was all the monsters there required. As a demonic entity, his hubris was to great to not see an answer besides himself. Acknowledgement that there were limits even you cannot transcend shows humility, the greatest defense against evil. Danforth unable to pass, unable to answer a similar riddle posed against him he was pulled into the twisting nether. You were spat back out of this pocket dimension, ALIVE but perhaps scared for life.

Monies and stats given. Also, Matsu has started a new class, he is a good instructor and I encourage you to join his class. He was my teacher a thousand years ago or so.
