in February 13th, 2008 @ 05:51“I don’t think we should go off on an adventure because
1. none of us has a really amazing power
2. If we run into trouble, we’re pretty much toast without all the backup here at MA
3. I think this ship is just plain bad news. Maybe this is what Boo wanted us to do. Like if we go anywhere the ship would sink and no one would know what happened to us
4. We have classes, you know. However, if we do go on an adventure, my stealth training would be invaluable. ((Stealth training isn’t pushing it is it?))”

in February 13th, 2008 @ 06:54“Well, I think we should tell the GAPAs what happened. I mean, the worst that can happen is that they won’t believe us. There could be boody traps on the ship that Boo set, so we shouldn’t go anywhere.” Kai said. “But I do think we should try to crack those codes Boo’s plans are written in when we get back on shore.”

Icelanders have had thousands of years of experience with supernatural beings and curses, as described in numerous Viking sagas. Just continue the story, please. We’re reading with great interest.))

in February 13th, 2008 @ 13:18Wrong species, eh? I think everyone here knows how that feels, though perhaps not in so literal a sense. Welcome to Muse Academy! Next stop is the registrar’s office to pick your course schedule, and then members of your house will show you around and help you settle in.

in February 13th, 2008 @ 18:03“Sounds like a good idea. There’s probably some telescopes in the Coontz basement or something. Man, I’d better hurry to Geek 105!” Kai replied to Vaxid.
The lesson that day in Geek 105 was about when it is okay to quote Star Wars in regular conversation. The teacher covered how quotes from the Expanded Universe should not be used around non-fans, and how you should always ask an adult if they have watched the prequels before quoting one. The homework was to find your favorite quote from each trillogy and be prepared to tell the class why you liked it the next day.

“Also Vixen, you should always be careful in this place. Always be prepared for a pie attack. And now I have to go. Oh, and here’s a map of the school.” I run up to a tree, touche part of it, and a door appears on the trunk. “Oh, and learn about the secret passages! They help when you need to get around quickly!” I call out to Vixen as I walk through the door. It dissapears after I walk through it.
((is this okay? I think it would be cool to have secret passeges. And I’m not getting this from harry potter. I’m getting it from Clue. Also is the almost-mages club still here? can I join?))

¡Ã߀ƒ! [158 piepoints ©]
in February 13th, 2008 @ 21:28MA is a school somewhere near Iceland where gifted children (like musers) go. We spend our time interacting with other students, doing various classes, and pranking each other’s houses. There are four houses–Spector house, Coontz house, Lasely house, and Baker house. Take the test on post #24 to see which house you belong in.

in February 14th, 2008 @ 04:39Well, the quiz puts me in Spector House. And if Spector House has a purple dog, can’t I bring my dog, too? She’s only three punds and doesn’t ever bark! Of course, she has that odd trait of sprouting wings and vanishing and reapearing somewhere else, but I think that’s because they gave her some sort of experimentary drug…. And she’s potty trained! (almost…)

Kai hit the “Next Sighting” button again on the NASA SkyWatch applet. After about thirty seconds of number crunching, the table came up blank once again.
“Observer Location: Southern Iceland
Latitude: 64 North
Longitude: -21 West”
“Satellite: International Space Station”
“Sighting search stopped at Mar 03 15:51:47 Click next sighting to continue.”
Okay, so I’m not going to get to see the station for a while.

ln the pie wars, there were some problems with agagabagabag. l tried to wipe the slate clean and make a clearer character, but you’re still complaining.
Geez, l thought that MA would be a place where intelligent, creative, and weird kids went to live in peace, but apparently others dissagreed. Apparently Agag is too intelligent, creative, and weird.
On a different note…
l used to follow the typical school of thought in which the GAPAs are practically worshipped. But l realized that they’re only human like me, and that l don’t believe in worship. They are human beings, worthy of deep respect, but no more so than me or any other MBer. They are no less capable of making mistakes than me. l’m sorry, admins. l really am, but just because you decide whether or not my post shows up doesn’t make you gods.))

Everybody, please don’t argue…this thread has been more OOC than in character. I think that people should be allowed to have some talents, but not superpowers like invisibility…gadgets are okay, as long as they’re not way out of the ordinary. For example…
Watch that tells time in 14 different time zones: Okay
Watch that shoots lightning and fire: Not okay
Shoes that make you jump a foot higher: Okay

agagabagabag (1 piepoint)
in February 15th, 2008 @ 16:41“Welcome, friends. Today we’ll start Dark magic, beggining with the most common and most fun, black magic.”
“Black magic is ‘harming magic’ (finger quotes)’, but to harm would defeat the purpose of the almost-mages.”
“First, fire. For all fire purposes, we wear fire-resistant clothes and use special matches.”
l held up a box.
“These matches burn through quickly, and go out soon. To make a fireball, you take these clear balls, light some matches, put them in… seal it up… and voila!”
l hurled the fireball at a wall near a student, who jumped. The fire quickly went out.
“Next, we’ll work on setting fire to our robes. Mine are fire-resistant, and actually keep fire from burning too long. Some of you Neophytes may have seen me do this already. You start talking, and light one of my special matches with your hands inside these long sleeves, then- WAAAAH!!!! Your sleeve catches on fire!”
“Thirdly, lightning. lf any of you saw me zap Boo on the boat, you might be a bit worried about the strength of the zapping. Well, ghosts attract electricity far better than humans. A zap just feels like a normal static shock.”
“Then why the large lightning bolts?, you might ask. Well the hand that seems to shoot bolts isn’t actually the hand that makes the zap. In the shoulder of these robes, there’s a small generator that makes just enough electricity to make a static shock just big enough to travel to another person without touching them. You stand near a person, create the fake bolts with one hand, and zap them with the other. Or, if you’re too far away, just make the fake bolts miss them by a few inches.”
“In addition to fire and lightning, ice is also a part of black almost-magic. We don’t freeze people in blocks of ice, but we do something more fun: out of season snowballs.”
Some MAers cheered.
“Unfortunately, my technique is far from perfect, and not very magical. You have to make the snow in advance by crushing up ice, and you need to keep the snow in a thermos. But, with a little theatrics, you can make it seem like you can make snow out of thin air.”
“Practice session. Use the techniques l showed you.”

in February 16th, 2008 @ 02:54Vixen picked up some of the ice ijn the cooler and crushed it with a brick, she took one of thefireballs and padded snow around it so that it looked like a normal snowball. When, slowly but surely, a snowball fight started, she tossed the “snowball” at Agagabagabag, whose robes promptly caught fire. They very quickly went out again.
“You should have seen the look on your face!” she laughed.

in February 17th, 2008 @ 13:5861- “a neophyte? In my house? Why didn’t anyone tell me? My name’s Vaxid. Welcome to Coontz house, Kokonilly. Here’s some advice: You probably know this already but some students have been hit with pies or have tricks played on them. This is not uncommon here and I suggest you tread carefully and get good at doging projectiles. In addition, there are a few secret passageways in the grounds and the building. Very few people have found even one and no one knows all of them. If you have some time on your hands, you could search for one. If you need to move around quickly, they are very useful. Respect your fellow students and don’t hold a grudge. We try to stay away from rivalries between houses too. And Lastly, always be careful. Some pretty creepy things have happend already. You might have heard we recently were attacked by a ship full of evil ghosts. That’s all I have to say. It was nice to meet you.” I touch the corner of a mural taking up almost the entire wall of the room. It is a mural of a long staircase leading up to a door. I dissapear and reapear on the stairs in the mural. “This leads to the library. A secret passageway to start you off. Don’t tell anyone about it.” I say, as I dissapear behind the door in the mural.

“Well, I’m supposed to talk about my two favorite Star Wars quotes tomorrow in class, but I’m not sure which two are my favorites. There’s so many!”
“From just the films or the Expanded Universe?”
“Either one, but one has to be from Before the Battle of Yavin, the other after.”
“So, let’s start with the movies. What’s the most memorable line for you from The Phantom Menace?”
Kai bit her lip, thinking.
“Shimi’s last words to Anakin- ‘Be brave and don’t look back.’, I guess.”

in February 18th, 2008 @ 08:0566 – ((Thanks a bunch for the tips. Oh, and I’m not really a neophyte, I’m only one to Muse Academy.))
67 – ((Forgiven.))
“Well, technically speaking, those weren’t Shmi’s last words to Anakin, because, as you may remember, Anakin went back to Shmi in the Tusken Raider camp, where she died in his arms, but who’s keeping track?” Kokonilly said, then remembered that her mom was trying to make her less disagreeable, even at MA. “Oops, sorry. Maybe I shouldn’t have contradicted you.
“That’s fine,” said Kai. “The facts are always best.”
“Another good quote, you know, is from the sixth movie, when Anakin is dying.”
“Oh! You mean the one when he says, ‘Tell your sister… you were right.'”
“YES!!! Do you have your two quotes now?”

in February 18th, 2008 @ 09:51“Well, I doon’t mean to interrupt, but it turns out we have a free today in my class. Here’s a quote that appears in every movie: ‘I have a bad feeling about this.’ It’s in every single one. Also, a quote from episode 1 that is sort of important is ‘I’ll be watching your career with great interest.’ palpatine says that to anikan. possibly the most famous quote of them all is: ‘luke, I am your father.’ And here’s an interesting fact: until the very end only george lucas knew it was going to say that. In the scripts it said obi-wan killed your father. At the very end when they filmed it he told james earl jones to say ‘I am your father’ instead. Maybe you’ll get extra credit for presenting that fact along with the quote. Let me know how it goes.”

in February 18th, 2008 @ 15:54“Will do, Vaxid and Kokonilly.”
Taking a deep breath, Kai stood before the class. She had never been very good at public speaking.
“Um, my favorite quote from the Prequels is what Shimi says to Anakin when he leaves with the Jedi- ‘Be brave and don’t look back’. The theme of leaving home to go on an adventure appears in many of Mr. Lucas’ flims, such as THX and American Graffiti, and this quote very much fits with that theme.” She said.
“And your other quote?”
“Anakin’s words to Luke in Jedi ‘Tell your sister… you were right.’ The previous movies all told Anakin’s story, and his redemption brings closure. When we hear him say these words near Endor, we know that the story which began so long ago on Tatooine is over. The circle is now complete.”
“Very good, Kai.”

in February 18th, 2008 @ 20:03While waiting for another kid to finish their presentation, Kai practiced writting the date on the back of a bookmark at her desk. First the American way, then the European way, and then, because she wanted a challenge, in the Ancient Mayan way.
“Circle, circle. That’s two. Slash mark, then three bars- fifteen- and three circles- eighteen. Another slash mark. Then a bar-five- and two circles- seven.” She thought. “Hm, it’s been a while since I’ve written anything in Mayan glyphs… oh gosh! One of Boo’s papers looked like it was written in the phonetic glyphs!”

Beavo, Master of 1 spdzk point that is soon to drop from his name if he dosn't get a whole bunch more *wink wink*
in February 21st, 2008 @ 16:17((Ima post a bit of Faye’s previous post. We’re on a little sub-plot here.
“…I was called for by a boy – Beavo, of the Baker House. He apparently needed my advice. …Beavo… purposefully strode towards my house. My grin slipped a notch. This must be important if he, a student, would not stay for a pie fight. “Hey! Wait! Hold on!” I called as I ran after him.
He met me at the door, bouncing impatiently on his toes. “Hold your horses,” I muttered. I first placed him underneath my plastic wrap, as the pies were beginning to stray closer and closer to us. I next pulled out an old fashined key and opened the door. “In you go,” I said to him. Beavo gratefully stepped inside…”Clean yourself up, and I’ll make some hot coco.” I pointed him to my bathroom and set some water on to boil. ”
Okay. Here goes.
*********************Beavo held his hands out from his sides, trying not to spread the banana cream all over his clothes. He watched, pitying Faye as a large glob landed on her beige wall-to-wall carpet.
Once cleaned up in her bathroom (most buildings on the Muse Academy campus had the latest technology in clenliness due to the frequent pie fights), Beavo headed into the small, but cozy living room of Faye’s home. He admired her choice of furniture. Half of it wouldn’t have been out of place in his grandmother’s house. But the other half was distinctly modern, resembling something out of a Picasso cubist painting. Strangly, she had picked each peice carfully as nothing clashed or looked out of place.
The smell of hot chocolate got stronger as he entered Faye’s kitchen. She was sitting patiantly at a glass table, cocoa in hand. An empty cup sat above another chair, tea kettle next to it. A small basket of candy canes resided in the middle of the table.
Beavo smiled reminecently as he sat down; Faye remembered all the times he had frequented her kitchen for a chat last year as a newb– Neophyte.
Faye voiced his memories. “I remember you like to pour it yourself. And I never gave up on the candy cane idea either, it’s wonderful.”
Pouring his own cup of cocoa from the kettle, Beavo’s grin widened. “And you remembered the cinamon too!” The small container holding cinamon sat just behind the kettle.
Faye grabbed a candy cane and waited, the cane held above her cocoa. “Ready?”
Beavo took his own. “Ready.”
Plop! The cane fell into the cocoa.
“Okay, you ignored a pie fight to come see me. What’s going on?” Faye stirred her cup with the cane.
“It was hard, I have to admit,” admited Beavo. “But there’s this kid in Baker house. He wears a lot of black, and I’ve seen his wrists.” Beavo winced. “He reminds me of…” his voice trailed off.
Faye finished for him. “He reminds you of yourself.” Faye had not only been the sort of caretaker for Muse Academy, but she had been a kind of guidence counsoler as well. She knew very well what Beavo had felt like last year, from what she’d heard, this kid was like Beavo’s shadow a year ago.
“It worries me because I think he’s a bit shyer than I was. I want to help him like you helped me. Advice?”
Faye stopped stiring and took a sip.((Back to you!))

in February 21st, 2008 @ 20:52I didn’t want to look too confused or out of place when I made my first appearance, but I couldn’t help slowly peeking in the door and glancing around before i entered. uh-oh. as i walked in, a pie slammed into the wall next to me, causing me to jump, then another one went SPLAT! right in my face. great. they new i was new, and just as in any other school, i was being attacked. too bad for them, the last time someone did something like this to me, they ended up with a few bluish welts. I turned towards the direction the pies had come from, and began charging the culprit. i may be small, but i sure pack a big punch. boy was i surprised. i wasn’t the only “talented” one.

in February 21st, 2008 @ 21:56At the moment I finished letting the pie fly, the new student ran up flew up the stairs, an angered snarl on his face. I pulled out my suction cup bow and shot it at the ceiling, tying it to my belt loop at the back of my jeans. Before I could finish the neophyte had begun pounding it out, though it wasn’t like I couldn’t hold my own. In fact, it looked like I was getting the advantage, while we grappled, I moved in a circle, until I got back to our original spot, then I gave the string a tug. I had circled the string around, and tugging it pulled it tight around his legs, toppling him. I had snipped the string and pulled out a pie-bloon by the time he had gotten to his feet. Then, before he reacted, I slopped the pie in his face.
“Listen, neophyte. I think I understand where you’re coming from, but don’t worry. Pieing at MA is friendly.”
I had grabbed my things and run out of sight before he wiped the pie off his face.

“Did you get my note?” Kokonilly asked
“I was writting the date in Mayan. I learned it from a book. Some of the writting on Boo’s plans looked like the glyph writing, or at least I think it did. I think TMFA still has the plans.”

in February 22nd, 2008 @ 19:29Oh. More embarrassment. How was I supposed to know that MA students went around pieing each other? Now I really looked like a neophyte… But maybe it would be better here… I would just have to get used to any weird customs… And learn to control my anger. But I was going to get better, I knew it. Here I might even learn to control my energy, and put it to use. I hoped… Of course, everything could get worse, and I might hurt someone… But now, unlike at the other places, I at least wanted to try and be a good student.
HA! See, I can capitalize things when I (Ha I see that isn’t capitalized, but I have all the time in the world ..dum de dumm ba dum *wastes time* I have time to capitalize it, and that is why you don’t see it as uncapitalized. Ha!) want to!!!

Faye surveyed Beavo over the rim of her mug.
“Hmm. A bit shyer than you? Well, you were indeed pretty shy way back when – a most serious intravert, I’d say.
“You want to help a boy in your house, who is having some serious issues. Well, first thing to do is to convince him that he’s not alone in the world. Try to be his friend, which is trickier than it sounds. You always need to be there for him. Next, why don’t you bring him along with you on your next visit?”((and my comment box just went bye-bye))

in March 31st, 2008 @ 18:01Raven La Mort walked down the halls of MA, thinking that today would finally be the day that she would start talking to people again, that she would actually become involved in anything at MA again. It was good to be back though. And then she heard a voice: “Can anybody help me?”
“I probably can. I’m Raven La Mort. Do you know what house you’re in? What’s your name, by the way?”

Yes, it is time we open this school.
What is Muse Academy South?
Muse Academy South (MAS) is a unique school built in 2008 to tailor to the extraordinary child. These children are all unique – they alone will one day take over the world and save it from destruction from HBPs. At MAS we nurture them, give them the attention they need, and guide them through life. We are a dedicated school and we offer a wide variety of classes to choose from, all of which take place in our ultra-modern school.Houses

Calliope Tenric has a rough rocky shore, is always a temperature of 73 degrees Fahrenheit (even when it snows, but the snow doesn’t melt), is usually rainy, has 8 known caves, and has a water temperature of 62 degrees Fahrenheit year round.What does Muse Academy South look like?
MAS is a large, stone castle that was built in the late 1700s. Because of Calliope Tenric’s unique climate, the castle has fared very well and has been renovated to have all modern and futuristic appliances. All technology is updated every month.What (if any) is the uniform?
MAS requires all students to wear sensible, smart-looking clothing. We encourage students to wear Muse clothing as it is durable, good looking, and has built in bunny protection. We require all students to wear shoes.Classes offered at MAS:

“Hm… where is Kai on here?” After searching for approximately 5 1/2 minutes, Kokonilly found Kai’s tiny speck. It was lost in a sea of specks… in the cafeteria. Oops, Kokonilly thought, I feel stupid. I forgot to eat. Stowing away the map in one of her many pockets, she headed off to the cafeteria.

Trebel_Cone_Freeskier! (100 piepoints)
in April 4th, 2008 @ 20:46220 Attention to all Muse Academy students who are interested in Muse Academy South!
You do NOT have to transfer. We have worked out an agreement with your school for students who are interested in attending both of our schools. If you would like to attend both schools, you have these options.
1. You can attend MSA when MA is on holiday or vice versa. This works because we are a different schedule.
2. You can come to 1 school for 1 term and the other for the next. You will be able to alternate or choose if you would like to come for 1, 2, or 3 terms.
3. You can do one of our exchange programs. Once MSA is fully set up, we will try to coordinate an inter-school exchange. This will mean that interested parties will be able to switch schools with 1 student for a week or 2.Remember, we are a VERY accommodating school – please don’t hesitate to ask with any questions.
— Thank You —Zoe’s knees were trembling as she walked into MA to put the notice up. She walked through the door and was instantly overwhelmed by a sense of nervousness. “I don’t know anyone here†she thought to herself as she stood in the doorway. “I am an outsiderâ€.
She turned around to go back to the submarine that brought her from Calliope Tenric when she felt a tap on her back an a voice asking if they could help her.

Adeia [5 piepoints]
in April 4th, 2008 @ 20:55219-Thank you! I’m sorry I over-reacted, it’s just that I was in the middle of fiding a cool map……….
Ditto to Kokonilly’s question.Adeia saw many (valuable things things on the map that no one has seen since whenever MA started.
“I have to tell Koko!” (That is what Adeia calls Kokonilly in her mind) Adeia thought. Adeia ran to the cafeteria; it was lunch after all.
When she found Kokonilly she whispered rapidly to her, ” Can we go somewher private to to talk? Like the Library?”

Ven looked at the tall building in front of him and sighed. He had gone to a million schools, and each time he felt like it was home. Home. What a strange word. Everybody says it’s the place where your friends are, your family, or where you feel comfortable, and don’t want to leave it. Not for him. It could be anywhere. At least that what it felt like. But here, here it felt strange. Very strange. Like something big was going to happen. He looked up and started through the door. He pushed them open and he saw a giant statue of Kokopelli. “Hello?” His voice echoed through the hallway. “I’d better find which house I’m in……”

Baylee looked around the mess hall. She had just finished her ice cream sundae and was looking for Kokonilly and Adeia. “I wonder where they went…… Oh well. I have to study up for World Domination,” she said to herself. She walked to the library and checked if there were any books left on Hitler and World War II. Her teacher said there were 2 types of World Domination. The Muserly way and the EVIL way. Hitler tried he EVIL way. The Muserly way is when we have every kid in the whole world ordering Muse, and a army of HPBs, NGBs, SBBs, OOBs, RPBs, and HovPBs!!! Then, then, well, we haven’t really gotten to that part yet. She saw a book on the history of MA. “Well, that would be pretty interesting!” It was a old book, way in the back of the bookshelf. She blew off the dust. She opened the book and out fell a map. “I wonder what this is, a map to secret stuff?”

in April 6th, 2008 @ 19:28Baylee looked at the map carefully. “It’s just a map of the school,” she said sadly. “Nothing secret or important,” The map was in color code. Hot Pink for the hallways, Neon Green for the 2nd flloor, and it get darker the higher you get until you reach the top of the building which is a dark grey. The first floor is white. Robes represent teachers and Prefects, stick figures for students, and blue stick figures for neophytes, that were walking around the building, with their names under them. “Ah well, just a regular map!” she said. Wait, were the stick figures MOVING??? There’s Kokonilly, Adeia, and Kai! Oh, and there’s Althea!

in April 16th, 2008 @ 18:47The day was warm, the sun was shining, and I was walking along the road to my new school. Muse Academy, I thought, interesting name. I’d been told I’d fit right in in Lasley House, with my love of art and––”Oi!” I shouted. “Stupid nasty truck!” and began wiping the mud off my face. Shoot, I thought, way to get splashed with mud on your first day of school.
*later*
“Hello? Helloooo??” The halls seemed pretty deserted. I heard some voices to my left and started off. Left turn, right turn, second right… The hallway opened up into a spectacular room, books piled high on shelves. There were a few people peering at a fireplace on the far wall.

in April 16th, 2008 @ 22:25I was getting a bit lost, having just arrived at Muse Academy a few days ago, and was looking for a landmark or a person which/who would tell me where to go. I turned a random corner and saw a small crowd staring at something on the wall. I entered the room and saw that it was a fireplace, got thoroughly confused, and then asked someone what was going on. ((I read the posts, so I know what’s going on, but it’s just for the story.))

Anyone defending these stairs with swords (or pies, for that matter) would be at a severe disadvantage… unless they were all left-handed. A house in the clouds for a bunch of lefties? Strange.
I kept climbing. It seemed like where we’d climbed to now should be above MA. But the stairs didn’t end, and neither did the elevator-shaftlike thing in which they were enclosed.

Baylee looked inside the tunnel. She slowly hacked away at the spider webs, and gasped. “Guys come here! I think I found something!” She saw a pink light. She squinted and saw it was a RED light, no a pink one, no a red one. Than she realized it was a torch with a pink flame, and a giant ruby right in the middle. “Wow,” she said under her breath. She heard a rustling behind the flame and her heart skipped a beat. “Hello?”

The Eastern Island statue started snoring. “I know that I just need you, like I’ve never done before!” The Big head was sound asleep. Baylee followed the snoring and saw it. She pushed its nose to make sure it was asleep. A loud grounding noise could be heard, and a long tunnel appeared. “I guess we have to go in,”

in April 27th, 2008 @ 16:44“Technically, she is a giant spider that bit Frodo in the loard of the rings,” “WOAH! There is another pink light. This time, it’s a very bright one.” she looked around and saw small skeletons, all with long ears. “Uh, guys, I think this wasn’t such a good idea,” she looked around and bent over one of the skeletons. “This ones fresh. The age of it, maybe 5 years. Probably killed 2 days ago,” Suddenly she could feel something breathing and her neck. Baylee turned her eyes open wide with terror. “GUYS GET OUT OF HERE!!!!” It was a cannibal HPB, but it probably ate other kinds of meat too. She was trapped in the room with Kokonilly, but everyone else were behind it. Then she calmed down there was a narrow opening……..

in April 28th, 2008 @ 17:16I pulled out my Swiss Army Knife, holding up the saw part.
“Stay back, you creepy thing! Stay back!” I shouted, although my voice stuttered. I didn’t have the nerve to attack the HPB. I just hoped it didn’t know that.

“Well that’s that beast conquered!” I say in an attempt to cheer up all.

in April 29th, 2008 @ 17:03Baylee grinned. She knew that singing could make things better, but she didn’t know that it could make THIS better. But she finally realized why the HPB had run away. “Guys, get through that opening QUICK!” Her singing had awoken more stone heads. And one had somehow awoken a Thing, and that Thing probably hit a booby trap, and now she could here a faint rumble then a crack, and a giant stone ball was heading there way. “HURRY!”

in April 30th, 2008 @ 06:38I didn’t have time to tell Kokonilly “No”. I just took off as fast as I could. The ground was fairly bumpy, but three years in cross country had gotten me used to running on much rougher terrain than this.

in April 30th, 2008 @ 09:34I started to run, but froze. There was another slider puzzle on a stone head. There was also a small door next to it. I opened it and dashed inside. Cautiously.

As I ran blindly from the huge stone ball rolling towards me, I felt something under my feet. I knelt down to touch it, hoping it would get me out of here. And it did! I felt myself tossed up in the air.. ((To be continued…))

in April 30th, 2008 @ 22:56The tunnel suddenly split, one part going downwards, deeper into the castle. The other branch sloped up suddenly, and we dashed up that. The stone ball came a short way up, then rolled backwards down the downwards tunnel.

I crossed my arms and looked at everyone. “See? I TOLD you this wasn’t a good idea. Mutant bunnies trying to eat us, giant stone balls…”
Okay, so I was acting like a brat, but it was my first day at a new school and I’d almost gotten killed too many times for my liking.
((Heh. My character is the brat! Awesome!))
