M&P: Carthage Troubles

I'm lazy so I will quote. XD Again.

Here are some instructions, ask if you have any questions. If not, our previous game, M&P: Evolution was a fantastic example of a good game, hosted by our lovely Koneko on Lyoko with the help of Cats and Snickie as our murderer and our Psychic.

Instructions/How to for M&P:

Kelly's Impossibly long Q&A: Click at your own caution:

Snickie (that's me!) is hosting this round. Yay!

No one else. You're all laaaaaameeee.

Atlas must end this cycle once and for all. Count me in.

I've been excited to get back into this again (btw, Cya, great job on hosting).

(Thanks. Hope the end wasn't too crazy)
I'm SO in

Once I've cleaned out my message box and we get >8 people for sure, I will open up murderer and psychic applications.

Well I'd be more then happy to play again

Ooh OOh me! Mee! *raises hand* I want innnnn!

Inbox is somewhat clean XD
Murderer and Psychic applications are officially open!

Bump.

Inbox looks awful empty right now. You know what it needs? Some murderer applications! Since, you know, it's kind of hard to play Murderer & Psychic when there's no murderer.

edit:
Psychic applications are officially closed.

I'm psyched to play this, COME ON!

Yepyep.
Murderer applications are closed.
I'll see about writing the first scene as soon as I know who the murderer wants to kill.

YUSH!
(Oi murderer [whoever you are] come and tell Snickie who you want to kill so we can get on with this already!)

I would love to be in.

Scene 1 is forthcoming!

Forthcoming... Soon to be Fifth-coming. ( get it because it was posted on 12 Mar and now it's 16 Mar and they're 4 days apart ahahahahah im horrible for explaining the joke )

Ahahaha I get the joke Cats!

But seriously, eager to see who dies so that everyone can start blaming me over it.

Unless you're the one that dies, Atlas, though I'm sure we'll still find a way to blame you for the murders

I will abuse my admin powers and find out who killed me if I go first

gee sure is taking a long time

That just means it's going to be really epic.

Heh, not really.
This is my "I'm tired and my parents are harrassing me to do something useful with my life" version of an opening scene. xD

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Nine people suddenly found themselves suspended in midair in complete and total darkness. After a few seconds, nine plops on some kind of hard surface. Even if they hadn’t hit their heads when they landed, none of them could remember what they had been doing before they found themselves here, though many were sure that it was something important that didn’t involve dark scary places.

“Okay.... where are we?” a voice said.

“Neron? Is that you?”

“Cya?”

“Ugh, my head.”

“Is that you, Cats?”

“I’m over here... I think that was Atlas.”

“Ouch!”

“Whose foot am I stepping on?”

“That’s not my foot...”

“What’s going on in here?”

As if somebody had flipped a switch at that very second, the very room suddenly seemed to burst with blindingly bright blue light, and the nine inhabitants had to cover their eyes.

“Who turned on the lights?” Snickie complained.

“And how on earth did we get into these?” came Cat’s voice.

Snickie uncovered her eyes, along with everyone else, to stare at what her surroundings and attires. She wore a black-and-green cat suit not dissimilar to Odd’s season 4 outfit. Others did not fare well either: Cya looked like a Merlin rip-off, while Kay was decked out in blue and pink latex, Atlas was some kind of heathen god, and Neron a faun wearing a pink wizard’s coat. Also among them were a Roman gladiator, a Japanese schoolgirl, a pink sprite, and a sparklepire.

“Why... we’re on Lyoko!” said the gladiator with Cats’s voice.

“This is not fair!” Neron shouted. “Why do I get the pink jacket and everybody else gets to look cool?!”

“You think being forced to wear a Japanese schoolgirl outfit when I’m not even Japanese is cool?” Kelly glared.

“Well what about her?” Cya pointed at Stella. “Why does she look like a sparkly vampire from Twilight?”

“Who cares?” JueJue the pink sprite yelled. “We’ve got a big problem!”

“What problem?” Kay asked.

“This isn’t just any sector on Lyoko. It’s Carthage.”

“Yeah...” trailed Atlas. “And?”

“Isn’t there usually some kind of timer?”

As if on cue, the wall around them stopped spinning and opened up the pathway into the Carthaginian maze. A noise like an alarm sounded for a few seconds before silence took over. Everyone glared at JueJue.

“What?” she cried. “I was just stating the truth!”

Snickie let out a sigh and then led the others into the maze. They crossed the footbridge and stopped to let the wall open in front of them, jumping as each layer twisted in a different direction which created what was essentially a wonky tunnel. At the end they found themselves in a room with blue blocks (is there really any other way to describe Carthage?), a switch on the ceiling near the furthest corner, and, of course, tons of creepers.

Each person discovered their powers as they fought against the creepers, rather easily, while JueJue, the only one with wings (she is a sprite, after all), flew up to the ceiling to press the switch, which did nothing to bring aid against the creepers but did open a tiny door while the entrance they’d come from closed up.

Stella the sparklepire found the door and yelled, “Everyone, I found the exit! Follow me!”

People were quick to respond to get away from the last few creepers, the last being Cats who was able to deflect the lasers with his extensive armor. They found themselves in another room similar to where they’d been before, with more blue blocks and a few other doorways outlined by blue blocks.

“What’s with all the blue blocks?!” Cya cried.

“This is Carthage, Cya…” Snickie pointed out.

“Let’s do a headcount,” said Kelly, dissolving the daggers in her hand and counting the people. “You never know... creepers tend to make big messes.”

“Hey Kelly, you know you’re like a bada** Japanese schoolgirl with those daggers?” Neron pointed.

“Be quiet,” Kelly groaned as everyone else got into a line. She counted them, and then recounted. “Seven? Plus me, that makes eight.”

“But… weren’t there nine of us?” Atlas asked.

“Who’s missing?” asked JueJue.

“Snickie, me, Neron, Cya, Atlas, Cats, JueJue, Stella...”

“Oh my God! Kay!” Stella blurted out before dashing away back to where they came from.

Cya and Atlas caught up to her and restrained her. “Don’t go back there!” Cya cried. “She... she probably just got devirtualized, and is back at the factory with Jeremie and everyone.”

“If that were true, then why haven’t we heard Jeremie’s voice the entire time we’ve been here? Or even any of the voices of XANA’s polymorphs? Don’t you think Jeremie would have been guiding us?” JueJue groaned.

“But... that would mean...”

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Wooooo! Cliffie! But I think it's pretty clear what happened.

Hmmm.... let's have voting end on Saturday 23 March 2013 at 20:00 EDT.

So I look like a heathen god and Kelly looks like a Japanese schoolgirl eh?
