Open - Oh Wow, This Game is Neat! [P]

The feeling in her head, torso, legs and arms as they materialized into the game world of Terrasphere for the first time was so incredible! Her character's outfit and her chosen abilities were hopefully good. She tried her hardest to make her character as much like her favorite thing in the whole world, magical girls! To actually be able to play a game that lets you become a hero and have magic powers? This... was... so... neat! Wendy Ann Quinn stood in the fields of Brisshal now. Looking around still wide eyed and having fun. Her little bow and cutesy white outfit made her look like a little cupid girl, the dressed kind of course. Wendy decided her characters name before even booting the game. Magi Heart!

So far Magi Heart had been to a campy outposty place and a big city full of people all dressed like they were in a fairy tale book! The game even allowed her to communicate with these game people called, NPC. This was very different from her games. Her biggest disappointment was it was a bit too dirty here. She would have rather had a land kinda like Ultimate Candy Storm Revolution! The world would be full of color and she could snack on candy whenever she wanted! The ability to taste was really great too! It felt just like she was eating dinner when she ate in this game, but she could eat as much as she wanted without getting fat! Why wasn't everyone playing these?

Wendy had decided to try out a aspect of the game she had avoided so far. The combat. She did not like to kill things in games, but this game required it. She would just have to think of it as a 'curing' the enemy! She heard that actual blood came out though... ew. This would be nasty. Magi Heart looked around for something to practice shooting at with her arrow. Trying to remember that it was just a game and she was supposed to have fun with it...

 

Of all the things Terrasphere had to offer the main thing Mugetsu was excited to try out was the combat system. He took some martial arts classes in his youth but had unfortunately fallen out of it due to real life. "Still, the manual did say it basically guided you through your movements..." Making his way out onto the field the swordsman was greeted by beautiful scenery that looked like it went for miles. It probably did.

His blood boiled in anticipation as he gripped the handle of his katana - a disturbingly feral grin on his face. It didn't help that his tall hulking figure and demonic looking eye that shone dimly from beneath his hair fringe made him look like some sort of demon.

"Come out, come out wherever you are~!" He spoke loudly pacing through the brush with a predatory gait. He was sure he'd seen something come this way if only a flash of something in the corner of his eye...

"Got you!" He hollered as he brought down his sword only to pause when he realized the monster he was pursuing was a little girl... "...Shit!" Sheathing the blade he hoped he didn't frighten the little girl who looked no older than twelve. He wouldn't be able to forgive himself if he did!

"H-Hey! Sorry about that! I thought you were a monster..." An anxious and worried expression formed on his face hoping beyond hope that he didn't scare the poor child.

Tyris was sitting on a sturdy tree branch, taking a rest from his many adventures. He was about to fall asleep, when he caught a glimpse of something pink moving along the forest floor. He jumped along through the treetops, trailing the figure, hoping to get some idea of who or what it was before approaching. He soon realized that it was a girl- she looked about his age, but might have been older. She might even have been an adult Faerin. Just as he was about to leap down from a branch to greet her, however, a man emerged from the brush and nearly chopped her down!

"Whoa!" Tyris cried, running forward towards the two before realizing that he'd stopped. "Are you okay?" he asked the girl in pink. Now that Tyris got a closer look, she was definitely human, not a Faerin. She looked about the same size as his twin sister- a bit shorter than he was. She was traveling on her own, but she carried a bow and a quiver of arrows. She was one of those travelers who'd arrived recently, he thought- as was the man, for that matter. He didn't quite know how, but he knew them when he saw them.

"You gotta be careful with stuff like this," he said to the man, putting his hands on his hips and giving an admonishing look- really, he was imitating his sister, who'd often give him similar advice. "Don't go starting fights unless you know what you're fighting!"

Wendy tried to figure out how to hold and aim Magi Heart's bow. It was so light! She always thought these things were heavier. Pulling on the string with her finger a few times, she imagined how the arrow was placed. Okay, she wasn't stupid, this would be easy! Yeah! Her hand went behind her head to find her arrow. Magi Heart's hand kept grabbing air as she awkwardly felt around. Maybe it was hard.... Moving her hand around with a blur super quickly, in a comical fashion much like the very anime she watched. Her hand finally grabbed a arrow. Phew. Pulling out a arrow from her quiver, she put it against the bow string and tried to pull. Okay... the hardest part was definitely over! Pulling the string all the way back, she let go of the arrow. It fell into the grass... huh? Picking it up she tried again. She had to pull the string and let both the string and arrow go at once.. okay.

This time it worked. The arrow fired! Magi Hearts eyes grew wide and a happy smile appeared. Yeah! This was going to be neat! Happy with her little victory. Magi Heart began to walk with swag. her head up high and her hands in fists striding dramatically by her sides, bow still in hand.Now she was going to find herself some meanies and shoot her magic curing arrows at them until they understand what love is and accept it into their hearts! Yeah! So neat! She would need to go find a good place to shoot from now. Heading through the plains she came across a thicket of tall grass. Oh yeah, if she snuck around in there and aimed her bow, She could shoot many evil thingies in the butts and cure them! Chuckling she ran into the weeds.

"Come out, come out wherever you are~!"

Magi Heart froze in the grass. Her heart skipping a beat. Someone else was here... and they sounded like they were.... hunting her! Wendy never thought about actual people who would be enemies,. Although she guessed it made sense. Gosh she was in trouble! Turning to flee the hiding place, her nose would meet a very sharp blade!

The man cursed, not very nice, and apologized. He thought she was a monster. Kinda ironic cause he looked pretty scary himself! Hmmm... maybe hiding in bushes was not a good idea after all. Then another person came over yelling. He... was... so... cute! A cat boy! What were they called in this game again? Wendy would have to check but didn't care right now. She backed away from the tall man with a sweat drop coming down her forehead and nodded with her hands out, still one holding her bow.

"I-it's okay, really! I guess I shouldn't have hid like that ha.. ha... "

Looking to the much more friendly and cute looking cat person. Magi Heart ran over and looked him up and down. Her eyes had small hearts forming in them. He was adorable! Wendy wanted one so bad!

"You are so cute! Nyanko!"

Magi Heart beamed as she named him. She did not want to upset the cute cat person but she wanted to touch his ears so bad.. her free hand began to creep ever closer almost unconsciously. The whole idea that she was supposed to be a magical girl was unimportant right now. Cat ears, cat ears, cat ears....

'Geez... What a way to make a first impression....' Thought the swordsman with an internal sigh. Though it seemed his interactions with the little magical girl was cute short when a cat human - 'Felis was what they were called, right?' appeared admonishing him for his reckless behavior. "Eh?" He scratched the back of his head looking away with a flustered blush staining his face. "G-Gomen..." He easily slipped into Japanese without much thought only to hide his embarrassment by crossing his arms and reigning in his thoughts.

With an external sigh this time he put on a much happier and amused expression as he watched the archer girl approach the cat boy - fascinated by his kitty ears - not that he blamed her. 'Ah... The simplicity of youth...' I mentally mused with a more relaxed expression.

"Anyways.... I wanna say sorry, I didn't mean to scare you, little miss. I was out looking for something to fight - cause I'm..." He dramatically posed looking like something out of that old (and still running) Jojo's Bizarre Adventure manga. (Who he was quite sure the mangaka was STILL kicking, damn man's immortal!)

"A SWORDSMAN OF JUSTICE!" He yelled hammily taking on a very Dio Brando-esque pose. He did this out of the desire to get some reaction outta the young girl that didn't equate to just "fear". And Mugetsu hoped his lucky stars that Magi Heart saw him as something other than intimidating. The one thing he couldn't stand was when children were afraid of him, it made him feel like a monster...

[Sorry for the wait!]

Surprise Visit!

There was a crowd of darkly-garbed figures that stepped out from the rip of space that had appeared before the three adventurers. The stench of rot and decay fills the air as they march onward to a place where no one knows. Their chants echo in the thick, tense air and whoever gazed upon their visages (twin red, flickering lights shining from their hoods) would feel splitting headache which threatened to tear their minds apart with the distorted and mind-consuming imagery.

And then it stopped. As if they were never there, the only traces of their surprise appearance had been the wrinkled and ashen blades of grass from which they walked around. Dust, from what had once been living mere moments ago, blew away. The spectators could still hear a resounding whisper in their ears, muttering incomprehensible words:




"̨̜̰̩͗́ͬ͛͋͋͟P̛̙̣̻̞̞̂̂͐ͦ͐̏͘͠h̖͍͖͕͇̠̣̥̝̿͂ͧ̿̐'ͤͨ̓ͯ͗ͥ̂͟҉̛̫̻̟̪̫̹̣̩͔n̸̸͈̤͓̹͙ͨͭ̔̈͠g̳̩̰̖͚͓ͥ͌̕ͅḽ̵̸͇̗̮͗̋͠û̪̘̯̥͉͌̿ͯ͞i̯̲͇͈͇̤ͯ̆̑̚͢ ̧̛̲̮ͦ̍̀m̞̻̳̓ͫ̎̌g̮̝̜̻ͪ͐ͧͣ̄́̚͡ḷ̡͍̻̓ͫ͒̇ͨͬ͝w̴͔͎͓͓̝̿ͥ͆͆'̶̯̩̱̭̮͚̥̺̦ͪ̉̄̆̌̇̀n̢̂ͮ͗̓ͤ̎ͦ̚҉͖̗̗̠̪̠͙á̢͖̝̝̲͛ͨͬ̉ͥ͜f̩͚͎̰͈͇̆̑͋ͬ͒̉̽͂̚h̨̡̹̬̱͎̖̦̠̹̆͐̿͆ͧ̂̀ ̘͔͖̬͍͙̐̊͌͌̌̿͜͟͡C̛͉̙̄ͦt̨̲̪̰̐̑̏ͮ̔̓̅͢h̵͔ͦͦ̀́̋̈ͨ̀ų̹͕͙̖̏̃͝ļ͚͐͒ͫ̅̈̽́͝h̎̌̔̍̈́̌̓̽͟͏̵̙͉͓͉̰̣̠u̧̫̻̳̺͔̳͔̾̅̏̉ͭͤ̊̿́̚ͅ ̱̱̭͍̠͓̰ͪͮͬ͂̒ͥ͘R̛͔̟ͨͧͧͪ͜͝'̸̯͓̖̲ͪ̔̀l̷̘̳̮͐̇̉ͤ̀͗̃̎ͥ͘͟y̠̭̬̙̩̌̾͒͊́̀̋e̺̲͖̯̮̼̅ͦ̐ͩͯ͞h͎̻̩͍̞̭͌́͌ͩ̚͝ ̧̫̗̗̉͋̓ͤͭ̈ͮ̚w̩̻̘̳͉͖ͩͦ̅ͥ̉ͣ̓͊g̲̾a̸͔̐̅̑̆ͫ̀h̡̒ͤ̏ͦ͏͓̻̠̹͖͕'̮̰̦̊̽́͢ņ̟͉̹̙͙̖̮͉͂̚̚ͅa̫͙̩ͯͮ̐̚͠g̴̵̺͌ͬ̽̄̑̚ḻ͕̳̲͍͑ͤ̏͊ͣ̑͒ͅ ̵̨̹̫̞̠̩̹̀ͭ͆́f̸̸͕͑ͯͪͩͭ͟ȟ̤̩͕̜͖͚̠̪̍ͅţ̖̻͋̅͟a̧͕͈͕̙͚̰ͣ̿͋̎̓̊͂̈́͘͡gͪ҉̜̹̹̰̜̣̫͙̼͡n̸͍̝͍̳̬̬̝̤ͤͣͫ̋ͥͨ͘.̖̳̣̳̻͉͚ͣ̇̌̌̊́̀"̡̨͖̜̤̩̠͓͔̈́̍̇̑͘


And then it was over.​

 

The girl was giving Tyris a strange look. She said he was cute, and now she was reaching out towards him as if... to pet him? He wasn't some housecat! Still, he couldn't quite decide how to react; he didn't exactly want to upset her. "Uh... hi," was all he could manage, followed briefly by "My name's Tyris, actually..." He didn't know who "Nyanko" was, or what it meant, so he thought he might as well give her an actual name.

Meanwhile, the man apologized for his actions. He sounded like he was actually an all-right guy who simply made an honest mistake. Still, Tyris was puzzled by his posing. Some of these travelers acted like they were performing in a play or something, he thought.

He was about to inquire further about the man's role as a "swordsman of justice" when the hooded figures appeared, through what looked like a hole in the world. Their rotten stench drew his attention first, but he soon found himself staring, open-mouthed, as they passed. He couldn't get a look at what was beneath their hoods, but he had the feeling he didn't want to.

At last, they were gone, apart from their strange and sinister words echoing in Tyris' head. "We... should get back to the city, or something," he said with a trembling voice. "My sister's probably getting worried about me."

@Magi Heart @Mugetsu

 

The young girl happily patted the cat boys head. Touching his super soft ears and her face became pink with love. He was adorable! Wendy wanted one for real! Seriously kitty people were so awesome! Nyanko was even letting her touch him, yay! He said his name was Tyris or something like that. Ooh, that's not as cute as Nyanko but she understood that he wanted respect! She would keep calling him Nyanko sometimes though cause he was just too cute! Maybe Wendy should have made herself a kitty person too! A kitty magical girl! Darn she would have to be recreated for that. Maybe later. She still had to learn how to play this game first.

The cat boy, Tyris, looked pretty nervous. Maybe he had never seen a human before? Yeah, she had to show him she was his friend! Okay, what do cats like? Cat nip? Flowers? Yarn balls? Magi Heart snapped her fingers and nodded with a smile to Nyanko. Running off she would look around the area for something to give him so that he would like her more. She began to part bushes and call out for any bunnies. Cats liked to chase bunny rabbits!

It was during this time that the creepy hooded figures would cross paths with the others. The entire event would be missed by Magi Heart. However a strange feeling swept over her while she was searching. It was so strange that she became a bit frightened to be alone. What was that? Was it normal? Was a really powerful monster nearby or something? It sent shivers down her spine. Not wanting to be alone she rushed back over to the others and saw their shocked looks. The she saw the ruined path the cloaked men had crept over. Huh???

When Tyris mentioned leaving she would take the lead for sure. Whatever was going on she did not want to stay here anymore.
