THE LABRYNTH

[foundationmods]

Where....were they now?
Everything had changed, as they were flung in through the doorway of the fragment, falling down, down down -

Until every one of them hit a large, soft pile of hay.🗈

Yet, they were mostly alone.

Only two people landed in each hay bale, and as they crawled out, they could see that they were in a closed off area, with only one exit leading to a massive maze...

...So it seemed they would have to travel the maze, and find the exit.
But where was the exit?
And in the air was the harsh smell of smoke...

RIKU AND TAKUMI

[foundationmods]

[goldenmaniac]

[He grunts when he lands, flopping out of the hay like a rag doll]

Ow...

[rikuchi]

Takumi, are you alright?

[ He'll ask, checking in with him before they start their way towards the exit...

It's probably a good thing he asked. Because while the other flops out like a fish, Riku's landing is more graceful. ]

SYAORAN AND JOEY

[foundationmods]

[The investigation will be at Friday 1pm-3pm EST!

Players may have their characters chatter to each other before then.]

[incrediblystressedout]

[Joey pushes herself up, spitting straw out of her mouth as she does.]

Hay?

[Looking around, she sees Syaoran as well as...no one else.]

Oh, hey.

[excavated]

[ There's definitely a relief that they fell in hay when he grumbles a bit and tries to fix his hair a bit, taking off the straw there before hopping up onto his feet.

Tsubasa's pretty used to falling onto a lot of worlds before, so he isn't surprised. He sees Joey and notices that the others are around, but... ]

Yeah. This might be some sort of world that the Witch created... we must have all gotten separated when Kimihiro pushed us all in. We're probably still in the same world, though.

[ Stretching himself out a bit, he takes a gaze around his surroundings. ]

We'll all meet up with each other again, I'm sure of it. Anyway... are you doing okay?

SAKURA AND RULER

[foundationmods]

[The investigation will be at Friday 5pm-7pm EST!

Players may have their characters chatter to each other before then.]

[improbablenotimpossible]

[Sherlock gave a small groan, rolling on his left side, his hand clutching his right shoulder for a moment before he forces himself to sit up. The man's gaze lingered upwards for several seconds, his expression blank before he catches himself, quickly searching the hay for anyone else]

...Miss Matou? Are you all right?

[respring]

[ a hand raises up from the hay a few feet away ]

Ah, Holmes-san...?

[ give. give her a second.

.... ]

I'm fine. What...just happened?

SORA AND ANN

[foundationmods]

[The investigation will be at Friday 8pm-10pm EST!

Players may have their characters chatter to each other before then.]

[keydomhearts]

[ Okay waking up in a hay pile. First thing first! Is Riku alive? ]

[foundationmods]

[I SWEAR TO FUCKING GOD PAN]

KAREN AND GEBURA

[foundationmods]

[The investigation will be at Saturday 8am-10am EST!

Players may have their characters chatter to each other before then.]

[aleph_armed]

--Yoooooooou!

[Aaaand she lands in the hay bale. She takes a moment to pull herself out.]

All right, anyone else here? You alive?

[oceanicbutterfly]

I'm here.

[With some effort, Karen rolls herself out of the hay and starts brushing hay off of herself. It's everywhere.]

Is it just us, then?

BEFORE THE TRIAL

[lutea]

[As everyone gather around...Nirrti stands, the gaps in her skin showing the corpse underneath before she closes her eyes and makes them go back to only cracks.]

....We cannot fight to the end just yet.

...Not everyone is here yet.

[goldenmaniac]

We're waiting for Watanuki-san, right?

[lutea]

....Yes. We are.

[keydomhearts]

[ There she is!

He'll walk up to her, but he doesn't reach out for her this time. ]

Hey Nirrti. Are we waiting for Watanuki?

[excavated]

[ quietly: ]

Kimihiro will come. I'm sure of it.

[aleph_armed]

Ah, we're still missing Watanuki and his people, aren't we?

[...You know what, let's give Nirrti an apple. Yes, they're totally her apples, but still.]

It still might be a while, right? Might as well take the opportunity to take a break too.

[oceanicbutterfly]

[Karen takes a few cautious steps in her direction.]

Nirrti-sa...n?

1/3

[hatesdeerstalkers]

[As you all wait, there's suddenly loud explosions and crashing noises coming from...somewhere in the labyrinth?

....Actually, it sounds like Machine gun fire, missles, and british yelling/swearing.]

2/3

[hatesdeerstalkers]

[And one of the nearby walls suddenly erupts in an explosion, as Moriarty - a very bloody and wounded one, with actual blood and wounds - runs in, redonk coffin-gun-missile platform in one hand, and his cape in the other, which seems strangely bundled up...

...Kind of like there's a body in there.]

3/3

[hatesdeerstalkers]

[As he runs, he trips - and falls, his coffin disappearing in an instant.

Still, before he hits the ground, he grabs the bundle and thrusts is skyward, basically...absolutely catching himself with his fucking face.'

Yet, he still holds his precious cargo aloft, even though he's bleeding and wounded and just made a fucking idiot of himself in front of everyone, including his rival.

...From the bundle is a very familiar head, still asleep.

It's Watanuki, swaddled up like a goddamn baby.]
