Plot/Setting

Set in a past like time, where even the most petty crime could see you hung or burnt at the stake, a group of travellers decide to go against everything they're supposed to. The technology is super advanced, and things aren't always what they seem at face value. The travellers go off in search of the truth, what really lies beyond the city limits? The thing they are forbidden from their own government to leave. But, in a rebel, they leave the city's outer limits. Most of the cities are surrounded by barren wastelands that are full of unknown species, that will eat and devour anything that wanders into the land. Whilst they are travelling from city to city, they are trying to solve, unsolved crimes. But what they find is much worse than they expected. Most of the murderers are not humans at all, but shape-shifters, Super-evil creatures, whom by nightfall take their true forms. Be it Demonic, Witch, Wolf, Vampiric or other being of old folklore,turning each city into a "Murder City". 
The only thing that will expose a Shape-Shifter is "Holly Water" a special kind of water found in the Volcanic pools that can be found outside some of the city limits. And the government stopped people from leaving, in order to protect the Shape-Shifters. Few know of this though, and believe it only a substance of legend. The travellers, are somewhat like time-travellers, only they can not travel through time, but through space instead, meaning they can move from one city to another without having to face the wastelands. 

 

The group go through many disguises, and the first being of a company of performers, which have come to the City of Collingswood in the Region of Briaclya to perform as entertainment to the citizens of the city. No-one knows who the travellers really are, except for themselves. Each time they move onto a different city.They have a different disguise, another fake ID.

-------------------

Cherri looked over at Clyde, whom was still fast asleep, she scanned the room and saw that Constantine and Haile were also asleep. There was something on Cherri's mind that she just couldn't shake. The alarm clock rang out, which told them all to get their lazy butts out of bed. There were the others whom had been sleeping on the floor of the old inn room as well. They couldn't afford two rooms whilst they stayed in Collingswood, but it would tide them all over whilst they were performing. Clyde woke up with a startle, not expecting the wake up alarm to go off so soon and as he was closest to it, he glared at the clock until it silenced itself. 'better' he thought to himself. Then hauled himself up in his sleeping bag. Still feeling tired as he wiped the sleep from the corners of his eyes. Constantine was one of the last to wake up, she usually was. There was nothing she hated more than having to be woken up by a timing device, she looked at Clyde whom eventually shut the clock off. Sometimes Constantine wished she had powers like some of the others had. Halie sighed and got up. "Dibs on the bathroom first" She called out as she dashed off to the bathroom before any of them were awake enough to argue. 

[Chica]

Like a bolt of lightning, Rowan was out of his sleeping bag and at the bathroom door, grasping the handle so Halie was unable to close it. "Aww, come on," he pouted, leaning against the door frame and smiling sweetly. "Didn't you get the bathroom first last time?" He was unusually fast to wake up, and never seemed to suffer from sleep filled eyes or bed hair, although, he was probably extra obnoxious in the mornings.

Talia, on the other hand, was particularly grumpy in the morning, and her eyes flickered open from the noise the others were making. She sat up slowly, her silky hair, usually hanging in loose ringlets, was sticking up in all directions, and her left hand moved slowly to stifle a yawn, while her right rubbed furiously at her eyes. The first thing she saw as her eyes adjusted to the bright light of the morning sun, was Rowan leaning over Halie, that stupid smile plastered all over his face. "You leech!" She hissed, jumping to her feet and stomping over to the bathroom door. "You snake!"

"Wait, hold on a-" Rowan began to defend himself. But it was too late. Talia was already beating him with her fists, and kicking out at his legs like some kind of wild animal. "Ow! Stop! Talia! Damn it!"

"What's going on?" a sleepy voice murmured from beneath two sleeping bags, five pillows and a blanket. Damien fought his way tiredly out of the pile, yawning widely. "Are they killing each other again?" he asked, sensing Cherri nearby and giving her a small, exhausted good morning smile. "It isn't time to get up yet, is it?" Mornings were his absolute least favourite time of day, especially since he rarely got much sleep. He frowned as the vibrations from everyone else in the room reached him. "We're missing one."

 

Sketch was sat out on the balcony, her legs dangling through the rusty bars, and her hands gripping them tightly. She had been awake for about an hour already, and was rearing to go. The only reason she hadn't woken the others right away was because she knew they would just complain at her all day, so she'd been forced to wait for them to get their lazy carcasses out of bed. "Finally," she grumbled as the sound of fighting passed through the thin, sliding door. "It's about time. You damn sloths."

[PeppermintxKiss]

"Ugh, well I called dibs... you wanted it first, should have called it" Haile retorted, enjoying the show when Talia got the wrong idea and began having a temper tantrum. For a pretty girl,she could kick up a lot of fuss. "Well, it was entertaining, but I shall leave you to babysit Rowan, adios" Halie said, winking and going into the bathroom. Making sure it was locked so that one of the others wouldn't come barrelling in when she was half naked. 

Cherri looked over at Damien whom had fought his way out of the pile. She understood why he did that, but she doubt it made any difference against this noisy lot in a morning, it was never any different. She smiled back when he smiled at her, she felt bad, knowing he couldn't see it. She knew how it felt to loose something because of a birth defect. She hated what she had become. "Yeah, they're trying to anyway." Cherri replied rolling her eyes at Rowan, Talia and Haile, whom in the commotion had just sneaked into the bathroom. "Sadly, it's morning Damien" Cherri added, seeing as no one else seemed to answer his question.

Clyde looked over at all the commotion and was about to say something when Sketch walked in. He rolled his eyes, "Sketch, don't be so harsh all the time... you'll age quicker, and you don't want to look like an old hag do you?" Clyde questioned, with a smirk playing at his lips. There was nothing more entertaining than the mornings with this lot, you could always guarantee that one of them would be trying to argue with another. It just the way it was.

 

Constantine wanted to go back to sleep, but just as she was about to doze off again, someone stood on her ankle. "Ouch. Holy cheese and fries you're such a klutz" she called out, angry that she hadn't managed to sneakily go back to sleep, and been stood on at the same time. 

[Chica]

Talia gave Halie a sleep driven furious look, then sighed, releasing Rowan. But, just as he was beginning to feel safe, she thrust her fist into his ribs one last time.

"Ah-....The hell was that for?!" Rowan demanded, doubling over in pain. "Crazy woman."

"I'm not your baby sitter!"

"Then go tell her that!" Rowan grumbled back, now massaging his ribs. "The mood you're in, I bet you could punch that door down in one go. Jeez." He turned away before she could try to kill him again, and grabbed his shirt, pulling it on, still grumbling to himself in pain and irritation.

Now, remarkably calm, considering how angry she had been a moment before, Talia moved back across the room to her sleeping bag and sat down, waiting for the bathroom to be free. She picked up her comb and wordlessly began tackling her hair, humming cheerfully to herself.

Damien couldn't help but laugh at the racket they were making. "I guess it would be no fun if they weren't trying to kill each other," he commented. He got to his feet, just as Sketch re-entered the room.

"Like I'd ever let myself look like an old hag," Sketch muttered, skulking past Clyde. A second later, though, she was sprawled on the floor, rubbing her nose. "Ow," she grunted. "Who put Constantine there? This place is such a mess."

[PeppermintxKiss]

Haile could still hear them arguing as she got into the shower. Feeling awake and a lot better now she had warm water pouring down on her. She washed herself, then her hair. After 20 minutes or so she got out of the shower and came back into the room, wearing just a towel and a bathrobe.

Cherri looked and Damien and giggled slightly "I suppose you do have a point there" she said as he stood up and Sketch came in. She couldn't help but laugh at Sketch as she fell to the floor.

Clyde was about to reply with another remark about what Sketch would or would not do, but instead she fell to the floor, and he begun to laugh. The way she blamed poor Constantine for her misfortune as well.

Constantine glared at Sketch "I do not make this place a mess!" She shouted at her furiously. Still rubbing her sore ankle.

[Chica]

Sketch got to her feet, brushing herself off angrily. "Laying there pretending to be a rug while you know it's time to get up...I'm pretty sure you're making this place a mess." She made her way to the door, where their shoes were scattered, jabbing Clyde in the ribs as she went, and grabbed her boots. "You two giggle boxes can help me bring up the breakfast," she instructed, glancing back at Cherri and Damien. "I could handle it on my own, but I'm not so sure I should be using my powers openly here just yet."

"She's talking to us, isn't she?" Damien asked Cherri, wiping a stray tear of laughter from his eye. It would be a while before everyone finished off in the bathroom, so they might as well go get the breakfast while waiting their turn. This room felt extremely cramped, anyway. So, without a word of protest, he followed Sketch to the door, carefully stepping over the sleeping bags and screwed up clothes on the floor.

Rowan was sat on the end of a bed, wordlessly knitting a shiny, multicoloured something that seemed to have no defined shape just yet. Once the bathroom door finally opened again, however, he dropped the knitting at his side, and quickly stood up.

But again, he was too slow. Talia was in the bathroom, slamming the door shut before Rowan could take even one step.

"Damn it, I think she wants me to pee myself," he grumbled. "Hey Hal. Twenty minutes? What were you doing in there?"

[PeppermintxKiss]

Constantine opened her mouth to protest against what Sketch had said, but decided to ignore it. Lying back down, knowing she'd probably be the last in the bathroom, she wanted more sleep. She guessed she had probably been a sloth or koala in a previous life. She couldn't deny that at times she was the laziest person alive. Constantine just didn't see the point of rushing around when there were 7 other people fighting to use the one bathroom. It seemed futile. 

Clyde glared at Sketch as she jabbed him in the ribs. He waited until she was close enough to the electrical wiring in the wall, and without another word, jolted her with a mini electric shock. Nothing that would hurt her beyond repair, just a friendly reminder that she ought to be careful whom she picks her fights with and then went back to staring into space. In which he was planning to get to the bathroom before Rowan. 

Cherri looked at Damien and then back at Sketch whom had told them they needed to help and burst out laughing again. "Yeah, she means us" She said as she stood up herself, and followed Sketch and Damien out of the room, not bothering with shoes, she preferred to walk around barefooted anyway. Cherri had helped Sketch the past few days with breakfast, she wasn't one to fight to be first in the bathroom. 

Haile glared at Rowan. "Pervert" She said to Rowan, not telling him what she had been doing in the bathroom, even though it was pretty obvious she had been in the shower. She moved her way to where her sleeping bag was, and to the bottom of it where her bag with her clothes was stored. She didn't care if they were watching her or not. In fact, sometimes she enjoyed the attention. 

[Chica]

"Ow!" Sketch hissed. "You'll pay for that electro freak." She looked back as she opened the door and considered launching one of the bedside lamps at him, before deciding against it. He had just made a huge mistake, messing with someone who was about to have access to his breakfast.

"I'll bring your breakfast up for you," Damien called back to Clyde as the door closed behind them. He knew Sketch, and he knew she wasn't about to let Clyde get away with whatever he had just done.

Sketch scowled. "How will you even know which one I give you?" she pointed out with a satisfied smile.

"Cherri, can you spit at her if she gives me the wrong one?" Damien asked sweetly.

 

Rowan shrugged and picked up his knitting again. "Call me what you want, at least I don't take so long in there."

He gave Clyde a look of mock concern. "You know Sketch is going to put snails in your food, or something like that, right?" he said casually. "And I know what you're thinking. As soon as that bathroom door opens, I'm going in there. If you even try to go first I'll pee on your bed."

[PeppermintxKiss]

Clyde looked at Sketch, "At least I have a talent, unlike you Sketch... you can't even draw...your name makes no sense!" He called back as the three of them left the room. As Rowan looked at Clyde, he looked at him. "Sketch wouldn't dare, she knows I'd get her back worse... and you don't even know. Besides, I don't care.. not really my bed" Clyde said with a smug look. If Rowan wanted to wet the bed, and look like a baby, that was his problem. 

Cherri glared at Damien. "I'm not going to do that. It's not funny." Cherri informed Damien. She hated her ability as it would, she wouldn't ever use it on one of their friends,  she'd hurt enough people. 

Haile look back at Rowan and stuck her tongue out. "You aren't denying it" She replied as she pulled on her clothes. Rolling her eyes when she turned away from Rowan again. "Besides, your girlfriend has been in there just as long." Haile teased. 

 

Constantine finally sat up, "Why am I so tired" She complained. Then lay back down, not sleeping, just staring into space. Sometimes, she could just not get the motivation to get out of bed.
