[GC] A Game of Children IC (introduction)

[Timothy]

OOC: You're right lichtenhart!

IC: after being through so much today, you all begin to get tired a bit, only aska is still alive, because she had some sleep this afternoon. For the others, it's 5 AM and almost becoming light again.

 

[EvilMountainDew]

OOC: BLAH

IC:

"I'm soo tired," Damien says as he grabs some sort of blanket and covers the dead man on the ground. Damien then gets hit with a wave of nausea and he lays on the couch. "Wake me when everyone is alive again," Damien says with a smirk.

 

[Wippit Guud]

When you notice Mychal, sitting the corner still after seeing yet another dead body, you can see hes fallen asleep sitting up. And for an 8 year old, he snores pretty loud.

 

[Lichtenhart]

Tommy takes a blanket and puts it over Mychal, without disturbing him. Then he let himself fall on a couch, and tries to remain awake a little to watch upon the others while caressing Chester, but will probably fall asleep soon anyway. Today has been a difficult day for everyone.

 

[Sixchan]

Aska looks around at everyone falling asleep. "Hmph. Lazy bisoms. Sleep is for the weak, you know." Aska finds a blanket, lies down and stares at the ceiling for a long time, falling asleep with a monologue in her head. Why did we survive? Well, we hid in the catacombs. Not how...WHY? Why are you still alive? What is your purpose? I...I don't know. You have no purpose. No! I have a purpose! I must have! Liar. You are nothing. Your survival was blind luck. Just lay down and DIE. NO! I won't just die! I will survive! I'll kill whatever killed my family! You'll kill whatever it was that killed YOU. Yes! And I'll make it suffer! I'll cause it pain! And I'll be happy! You see? You are dead already.
"NO!" Aska sits up in a cold sweat.

 

[EvilMountainDew]

Damien wakes up to the loud 'no'. "Are you alright Aska?"

 

[Sixchan]

Aska starts shivering. "There...there are...voices...speaking...shouting...I'm...I'm scared...help me..." She brings her legs up to her chest and keeps shaking.

 

[Lichtenhart]

Tommy was awaken as well by Aska's shout, and as he listens to her explanation he gets up ad goes right near her, fondling her strangely colored hair and speaking with a soft voice.
"Don't listen to them, Aska, don't listen to them. We're here, your friends are here, and we won't let them hurt you. You are strong and wise, you'll be fine."
He calls Chester, and the doggie jumps on her couch and begins to lick her hands, softly whimpering.

 

[EvilMountainDew]

Damien gets up and walks over to Aska. "There are some things we need to figure out. We need to know what we are going to do from here. We need to know who did this, why they did this, and we need to stop them."

 

[Lichtenhart]

"Tomorrow we'll try to bury that poor priest, and we'll go to the village of the halflings to see what happened there. I hope they are well, Mychal was in the forest and nothing happened to him. Maybe they'll know. Now, anyway, we need to rest." he says, still fondling Aska's hair.
