Story Update
Big Sister entered the Unknown tunnel, finding strange writing on the wall.
The eternal winter will never cease to be. It shall not end unless you defeat the icy three. The first comes from the past and to insanity is she lost. She resides in a castle, and will find her dear sisters no matter what the cost. The second is from the present, a tortured soul of many woes. She waits where heat comes from the ground to obliterate her foes. The last spirit of winter, from the future, is a hero tried and true. Inside a jolly workshop of toys and giving, this hero waits for you. Find these three in the order I have stated. If you defeat them all, this winter will be decimated.
Deeper inside the tunnel, their group could hear
a young man crying for help. He was being attacked by noise and could probably use some rescuing!
After Ingrid had been defeated, the castle shook violently. An unknown magically sent all the characters out of the castle and on the ground. This
unknown force ended up revealing themselves as the reapers.
"I went ahead and took the players out of the ice castle so we can use it. Do you think that place will suffice?" Kariya asked.
Uzuki nodded.
"Yes, now that the freak show ice queen who was inside is gone, we can use it as an arena."
"Great, I'll text the players and let them know what we're up to."
Everyone receives a text message:
We've tallied up the votes and are ready to tell you our plans.
Traitor Votes So Far:
West - 3 (Joker, Pyrrha, Bakura)
Minato - 2 (Asha, Marcus)
Rocket - 4 (Hrist, Ash, Susan, Emma)
Ryu - 5 (Ciel, Minato, P.E.T.E, Rocket, Garrus)
Ciel - 1 (Ryu)
Big Sister - 1 (Guy)
Rocket and Ryu have received the most votes. Either one of them could be the traitor for all we know, so this is what is going to happen... The two players with the highest number of votes will duel until one winner stands. If they refuse to fight, both shall die.
(Rules: Each player will roll the dice on their posts. The one with the higher number will win. You can choose to roleplay out the battle or I will write an update with the loser dying.)
Anyone who guesses the loser of the battle and gets it right will also be awarded the losing players pins when they die. However, each player only has a few pins so it will be first come first serve. Place your votes via text!
After the text message was sent out,
Rocket and
Ryu were teleported inside the ice castle and the doors were locked shut. If anyone wanted to view the battle, they could peer inside from the castle windows, but it was impossible for anyone to get inside now. A reaper also appeared inside the castle to moderate the fight. "You two know what to do. I suggest you get started," he said.
Meanwhile, at the
Hot Springs, the reaper who had been talking the players around that area introduced himself. Taking his hood off, he nodded.
"I'm called Triple 7. It's my stage name. I actually am the lead singer in a band here in Shibuya, but with the snow and ice everywhere, all my gigs have been canceled," he explained to them with a sigh. "So that's why I've been wandering around partaking in silly nonsense, I swear. Anyhow, I'd be happy to show any of you around—"
Suddenly, the ground shook. The hot springs began to implode, the ground around them crumbling in on themselves.
Jenny,
Kamina, and—even the people just arriving to the hot springs—
Ciel and
Minato, began falling endlessly through a dark tunnel. Eventually, they hit the ground. It was a soft hit, because the group fell into a pile of black ash. It was so heavy—even in the air—that it gagged anyone who tried to breathe.
As you look around, you can see that you are all on one small piece of land, surrounded by lava. Off in the distance, a woman is chained up…
"Someone help me!" she cries, struggling weakly against the chains binding her.
