View Full Version : Survival by Suicide II (the Companion)
Carraka

Welcome to Survival by Suicide II, the second thread devoted to the most popular game on YWO. Due to numerous requests, Overlady Carraka has decided to create a simultaneous-running game thread. Twice the gore, twice the death, twice the fun!
The first thread can be found here (http://www.youngwritersonline.net/showthread.php?t=125).
Rules 1) Each round, every player picks one action and sends the narrator a private message with his/her action.
2) There are three possible actions: shoot in the air, shoot yourself, or shoot someone else.
3) Shoot in the air: This has no effect on you, anyone else, or anything, really.
4) Shoot yourself: If you shoot yourself and no one else tries to shoot you, you die.
4b) If you shoot yourself AND at least one other player tries to shoot you too, you remain alive and all assailants die instead.
5) Shoot someone: You must specify which player you wish to shoot. When you shoot that player, they die.
5b) Exception: If your victim has tried to shoot him/herself, you die instead. (See 4b.)
6) After each round, the survivors are put together in a new standoff and the next round ensues. This continues until there is only one player left.
6b) If all players die simultaneously in one round, that round is repeated.
6c) If no players die in one round, that round is repeated.
7) If you wish to, you can publicly declare/bluff/lie about your actions on this thread. You can also make and break deals with other people.
8) One round will last for about 48 hours. With each update, there will be a new deadline for your submission.
8b) Players who don't submit an action within the deadline are treated as if they shot the air.
9) At the end of each round, the narrator writes a few paragraphs detailing the gruesome deaths (or survivals) of each player.
9b) The narrator decides the theme of his/her game.
10) The winner gets to be the narrator of the next game.
10b) If the winner does not want to be the narrator, then s/he can give the job to someone else.
10c) If the winner does not want to choose someone else (o.O), then all power returns to the Overlady Carraka. She can choose whether to narrate, or give someone else the narration.
11) Don't take things too seriously. It's just a game.
12) The first post will be frequently updated for information on the current game. If you have a question, it can probably be answered here.
13) The Overlady (that's me, Carraka,) reserves the right to alter/add to the rules and resolve any disputes that arise when queer stuff occurs.
Convoluted Rules
These are added when queer stuff occurs, and hopefully will never need to be put in use a second time.
1) If the narrator receives an action via PM but forgets to write a player into the round, then that player survives the round.
1b) If this rule is abused, we shall all be very angry. And sad. We shall also nullify this rule. It only exists currently to keep games consistent, but the Olympics rules are inconsistent, so this rule ought to be nullified.
1c) Hmm ...
2) When considering SBS actions, PM messages are always valid over communication anywhere else, be it in a thread, in the YWO chatroom, or off-site. For this reason, if you are sending an action, SEND IT IN A PM.
2b) If you want to give your action somewhere else, it's best to take a screenshot, so you can prove it happened. This way, if the narrator does not notice your action or forgets, you can prove it happened.
3) If the narrator is unable to narrate after having already written narration for the game, the narrator can pass the narration responsibilities to someone else.
3b) If the narrator does not want to choose, then the Overlady gets to choose.
3c) Although the new narrator is strongly encouraged to continue the previous theme, the new narrator may change the theme if s/he wishes.

Wootage. ULTRA-KILL is all that can come to mind.. but then again all the people who will die in separate threads will probably be a M-M-M-MONSTER KILL (Yes, I know. I'm a nerd.)
Just let Chie & I know when to send our actions. I know we will have to wait for players on this thread though.

Don't be sorry, I couldn't have beaten Bubbleland on a whim anyway :P
but yes, automatic sign up RULES! :)
Carraka
06-17-2008, 02:03 AM
I could go ahead with six, you know. I think we had six for the very first game ever. So it's nice to see that the game isn't actually getting more popular.
EDIT:
Never mind, Majyk makes seven.

Yes, yes, the game in the first thread is still on (HI RAFF!). Pardon my lack of enthusiasm, my singing llama.

Since I'm not playing Game I... : P
Carraka
06-17-2008, 04:18 PM
Gotcha.
And you might even be narrating Game I.
Either way, 'twill be interesting. As long as I don't have to steal the narration from you.
EDIT: Dammit, peoples. Why didn't you tell me I had an extraneous "the" in my signature? Now I look stupid. xD

Can I start bluffing and say I already won?
Carraka
06-17-2008, 05:30 PM
Yes, the rules clearly state that bluffing is allowed.
Actually, they don't, but I'll go add that now.
lango
06-17-2008, 05:36 PM
Maybe its not a bluff though, I might be pretending its a bluff to make things easier
Carraka
06-17-2008, 05:38 PM
We already decided this game defies logic. xD
I've added a poll to this thread. SBS is so awesome that it needs a poll.
Imelda
06-17-2008, 06:34 PM
There's no answer for me in that poll. I have random logic that kills people I don't like. Or Shadow. :p
Carraka
06-17-2008, 06:40 PM
Eh, I really want to edit that poll, but I need to figure out exactly what I want to change before going to a mod.
Shadow
06-18-2008, 07:58 PM
There's no answer for me in that poll. I have random logic that kills people I don't like. Or Shadow. :p
Just 'cos I owned you on the round you were so excited about (twice!). :D
Chie'N'Kadath
06-18-2008, 08:07 PM
On the poll I almost voted 'I kill people because I don't like them' but that's the opposite in my case. I'm more likely to shoot someone I like. SO DON'T GET TOO FRIENDLY. J/K. I voted 'random' instead.
Imelda
06-18-2008, 08:56 PM
Just 'cos I owned you on the round you were so excited about (twice!). :D
Yeah, exactly. :glare:
I'll never forgive you. Hat thief.
Shadow

I never enjoyed your hat. It had a lot of dandruff in it. Three words: soap and water. Another example of why pirates suck. *nods*

Is it too late to join this magical experience and make some memories with you wonderful potential victims? By god, I'm not just going to sit around all summer helping the community and doing assignments - I want blood on my hands!
And Shadow, playing Monkey Island will prove to you why pirates do not, in fact, suck - in great detail, in fact. They also have great peg legs. I mean, that rhymes, even, almost. They are indeed most excellent!
Carraka
06-19-2008, 02:34 AM
Unlucky number thirteen!
Hopefully people stop joining now.

Played it. It sucked. All you could do was walk around and solve stuff. NO action or any good stuff. I'll admit the plot was quite good, but that isn't required essentially for a game. I'd rather play a senseless game teaming in violence and blood rather than a well-thought out game that has nothing good to do in it.
Rafael Domination
06-20-2008, 03:44 AM
Whatever. Ninjas rule because I've ascended to Ninjagod status and cast my chi to ensure that any attempts for pirates to follow otherwise will only result in them THINKING that they're Pirategods! :P
*confusing, no?*
Edit: I bestow this status on Shadow, Zaphkiel and on the most powerful Ninjas of all: Shaun and Andy. Together, our Pantheon shall make sure all pirates are exterminated!
Ha.
Carraka
06-20-2008, 03:54 AM
Hey now, let's keep this debate out of this thread.
Because I'm Overlady here, and if you debate in favor of anything, it should be llamas.
I guess pirates are okay too.
Because if you displease me, I shall, BAN YOU FROM JOINING ANY FUTURE GAMES!!!

06-20-2008, 02:30 PM
... you have a universe?
Since I don't know about it, I undoubtedly have never trespassed in it.

Figuratively speaking :rolleyes:
You rule over your threads. I rule over mine. Shaun and Andy rule over all.

I have not yet received all thirteen actions, so I will now compose PM/s.

The narration should be up some time tomorrow morning.
Thanks for all your patience.
-cough-
Yay! More blood to look forward to ^^
Carraka
06-22-2008, 11:20 PM
I’m late, but you should blame Imelda. I was going to write this in a word war with Shaun, but then he got worried about Imelda, so instead I began writing this several hours late.
–
Nine.
Up on the platform, Carraka paced back and forth on the stage, waiting for the thirteen players to take their seats. The room was small and the only source of light was a single light bulb that made a circle of warm light around the podium.
When everyone had taken a seat, Carraka tapped his pencil twice on the podium for silence. "Before we begin this evening's Event, I'd like to acknowledge Majyk. Majyk, please stand.”
An ugly, scar-faced chubby meanyhead girl stood up in the front row, beaming. There was polite applause, and Majyk waddled up the stairs at the side of the stage to the podium.
"Welcome to Survival by Suicide, Game I," Carraka said to Majyk, shaking her hand.
"Thank you!" Majyk was so happy that a tear slid down her cheek.
"Majyk is my very special guest, because we've made a secret agreement."
Majyk stopped crying and looked up in confusion.
"We're going to shoot each other in the next available game. Isn't that nice? Oops – I just told you about our secret agreement. It appears this agreement isn't very secret anymore."
The crowd (of twelve) murmured. Majyk stared at Carraka in incredulosity. "You – you just – you just told them – "
"Fortunately, it's not next game yet." Carraka twirled the pencil in his hand and then stabbed Majyk in the guts. The girl's eyes widened and she stumbled back, blood leaking from her lips.
"I was going to stab Pibs," Carraka continued calmly as the twelve players offstage began to bellow in outrage, "but it's really more satisfying like this." He pulled the pencil out of Majyk's belly, and watched the girl die.
Eight.
“Don’t worry,” he said to the corpse. “The deal’s still on.”
As Carraka cleaned his pencil on Majyk's shirt, the dozen players tried to get on to the stage.
"All of you really liked her?" Carraka said in surprise. "All of you want to avenge her?"
"No," shouted Jinxeh. "We want the game to start. You promised us BubbleLand!"
The crowd began to chant.
"BubbleLand, BubbleLand, BubbleLand! We want bubbles! We want bubbles!"
Carraka raised his hands for silence, stepping over Majyk's body. "Okay, okay, everyone. When you're quiet, we'll begin." The dozen players instantly fell silent.
"Excellent!" Carraka turned them all into bubbles. "Now leave me alone." He tucked the pencil on his ear, walked briskly to a side door, and left the room, letting in the sunshine.
The dozen bubbles milled around in the darkness.
"I can't believe he killed Majyk!" Lily exclaimed. "Wait, I can talk?"
"Bubbles can't talk," lango said. "Um, never mind."
"Wheeeee! We can fly!" Nyx was rising up towards the ceiling. "I've always wanted to fly."
"At least something good has come out of this," Chie muttered.
Nyx floated up and up and up, until she was next to the lightbulb. "It's very ... bright up here," she said. "Very pretty.” She floated closer to the brightness, closer and closer, until – pop. Nyx became a film of wetness on the surface of the lightbulb.
Seven.
"We must learn from Nyx's mistake," GeorgeMichael said wisely as the bubbles looked on at their dead friend. "Don't float towards the lightbulb."
"Hey, look," Imelda said. "We don't want to bump into each other either, right? Why don't we go back outside? There'll be lots of room to float around out there, and then we can figure out what to do."
"Figure out what to do?" Kadath said acidly. "We're bubbles."
Imelda seemed hurt by this statement, but since she was a bubble, no one could see her expression of hurtness. "I was just thinking – if we looked for a way to become humans again – "
"Yes!" Rafael said excitedly. "Once we're humans again, we can hunt down Carraka together and kill her! Revenge!"
All the other bubbles (except Imelda, who is nice, and Guessed, who is my friend,) agreed with Rafael's statement. They all went outside.
"Gasp," Lily said. "This place is ... different."
The building they had entered had been in the middle of city, but the world they emerged into now looked more like a set for a kiddie's television show. Everywhere there were cardboard trees and bushes, and blue rivers painted on to the floor.
"This is BubbleLand?" Jinxeh said with disgust. "Ugh."
"Hey," Pibs said. "We all have different colors! I'm rainbow-colored!" She expanded a little as she said this, obviously proud.
"I'm blue-orange," Lily said.
Imelda screamed. "I'M PINK!!"
In that moment, Rafael knew that Guessed was now alone in not-murdering-Carraka.
After comparing colors for a little while longer (and calming Imelda down), they split into several groups to explore BubbleLand and look for a way to turn back into humans.
Pibs, GeorgeMichael, and Lily made up one group. They chose to go "east", towards the cardboard sun that seemed more like it was rising than setting. After they had traveled for a while, they saw new cardboard shapes in the distance.
"Those aren't trees," said Lily.
"They're dinosaurs!" squealed Pibs.
"They're moving!" whimpered GeorgeMichael.
The rainbow bubble laughed, flashing through the spectrum. "You're afraid of a few cardboard dinosaurs? They must be miles away."
"But we move really slowly!" GeorgeMichael cried. "If they hunt us – "
"Dinosaurs don't eat bubbles," Pibs said contemptuously. "Come on."
"Now just a minute." Liily floated in front of Pibs. "I think you should apologize to Oscar. In fact, I agree with him. We should try to keep away from other things that move."
Pibs had turned a sullen crimson.
"That's right," GeorgeMichael said. "Apologize."
"No," Pibs said. "I like dinosaurs."
"Well," GeorgeMichael said, thinking of the most brilliant comeback in the history of BubbleLand. "I hate you!"
He flew at Pibs, determined to kill the rainbow bubble even if he popped himself.
Pibs just stood there in shock. She had never been hated before. GeorgeMichael collided with her at .02 mph. Lily screamed.
Instead of popping, Pibs had absorbed GeorgeMichael. The rainbow bubble was now twice her original size.
Six.
"That felt good ... " Pibs said, looking at Lily with new interest. "Hey, you're orange. You're ... an orange."
"Don't eat me!" Lily shouted, fleeing at 0.3 mph.
Pibs, traveling at a rate of 0.4 mph, took 10.62 minutes to catch and absorb Lily. Then Pibs's ears turned blue.
Five.
Shadow died.
Four.
Chie n' Kadath, lango, and Guessed formed the second group, and they headed due west. They crossed the painted river and soared over the two-dimensional canyons.
"If we're going to die by popping," Kadath said icily, "I disapprove of this game. I signed up expecting blood and carnage. The only person that died interestingly was Majyk."
"What's that?" lango tried to point at something on the far horizon, but he was a bubble and had no extra appendages. But everyone could see he was referring to a new shape that had risen out of the ground.
When they moved closer, they could see a sign hammered into the ground. "Transformation," Chie read aloud. "Move your soul into a human body today! CAUTION: Sacrifice is required. PROMISE: Machine will not kill you."
They all stared at the machine. It looked like a dinosaur. An allosaurus, to be precise.
"What do we do?" lango said.
"Clearly we've found the answer to our problems," Guessed said. "The sign says this apparatus can change us back to human form. We only need a sacrifice."
"What kind of sacrifice?" asked Kadath. Chie had moved around behind the dinosaur.
"The notice continues on the back," she said. "To perform sacrifice, move into dinosaur's mouth, spin around three times, and clap your hands."
"We don't have hands," Kadath said.
"Shh – that's not all. If no hands are available, sing a happy song. And that's it." Chie looked up at the other three. "Who wants to sacrifice themselves to the dinosaur?"
No one spoke.
"I think we should vote on it," Guessed said suddenly. "So it'll be fair. Like on Survivor."
"I vote for Guessed," Chie said.
"Me too," said lango.
"Me three," said Kadath.
"No, wait!" Guessed said. "In Survivor, I think sometimes you make little speeches about why you should be voted for. Or the other way around, or something like that. Can I make a speech first?" She paused, and when no one objected, he continued, "I think I should not be sacrificed because I'm a nice, humorous person with a kind heart and a kind soul. I am not in a romantic relationship with Carraka, and I might be a guy or a girl but you don't really know. So don't vote for me. What about you, Chie?"
Chie thought for a moment. "Here's my speech: Vote for Guessed."
No one else made speeches. "Okay, it's time to vote," Chie said brightly. "I vote for Guessed."
"I vote for Chie," Guessed said.
Everyone else voted for Guessed.
"I don't suppose we could also do something to get immunity?" Guessed said hopefully, but the other bubbles flared at her. He sighed dramatically and entered the dinosaur's mouth and spun around three times.
"Sing a happy song!" lango called.
"Um ...
This was a triumph
I'm making a note here
Huge success
It's hard to overstate"
The dinosaur's jaws clamped shut. "That's not a happy song," it said.
Three.
Chie n' Kadath and lango stood silently around the dinosaur. Its jaws had slowly opened again, and inside its mouth, nothing remained. "What do we do now?" Kadath asked.
Chie looked over the sign. "It doesn't say ... "
"You mean ... we sacrificed Guessed for nothing?" Kadath's voice was rising.
"She didn't know a happy song!" lango cried. "It's not our fault."
Kadath had turned a furious black. He entered the dinosaur's waiting mouth. "I know happy songs," he said with a glower.
"No!" cried Chie. "Kadath! Don't risk yourself! I love you!"
Kadath spun around thrice and spat out the lyrics.
"I feel pretty
Oh so pretty
I feel pretty and witty and g –"
The dinosaur's mouth clamped shut again. "I don't like that song."
Chie screamed.
Two.
Jinxeh, Rafael, and Imelda traveled north. Imelda was still crying. "Carraka makes me do something pink every game. I swear."
"I think this is the first time, actually," Rafael said.
"EVERY GAME!!" Imelda screamed, swerving to glare at him.
"Okay, okay ... calm down," Jinxeh said. "We're all adults here."
"I'M THE ONLY ADULT HERE!"
"Doesn't seem like it," Rafael muttered.
"Hey, look, there's something on the ground," Jinxeh said.
They moved closer. It was a sign.
If you pop yourself on this sign, you will turn back into a human. Signed, Carraka.
"I DON'T BELIEVE THAT!" Imelda shrieked.
"Can you stop speaking in all caps?" Rafael said. "It's really annoying, and it's also out-of-character."
"I'LL TALK IN ALL CAPS ALL I WANT!"
"SO WILL I!" Jinxeh said.
"NOOOOOO!!!" Rafael cried. "STOP TALKING IN ALL CAPS, ALL OF YOU!"
Imelda: XDDDDD
Jinxeh: 2 BAD
Imelda: XDDDDDDDDDD
Imelda was laughing so hard that her rosy pink surface was turning magenta. And then her magenta became so deep that it might as well have become scarlet.
Imelda: YESSSSS!!! I AM NO LONGER PINK!!!
She was so happy she burst.
One.
"That's what you get for hating pink," Jinxeh said.
"Life isn't fair," Rafael muttered.
"Now what about this sign?" Jinxeh said.
"You know, I'm going to try it. This is Carraka. It's so perverse that it might be true."
Jinxeh shrugged (even though she was a bubble). "Good luck."
Rafael drifted down and threw himself at the word "Carraka". There was a loud pop, and then a disheveled-looking boy stood next to the sign, looking around at the cardboard world.
"Hey, it worked!" he said.
Jinxeh cheered.
"Look, a bubble!" Rafael reached out and popped Jinxeh with a finger.
Zero.
Back in the building, Majyk found that she was breathing again.
One.
She sat up, wheezing, trying to ignore the pain in her abdomen. Her hands were sticky with blood.
"I'm going to kill you, Carraka!" she screamed, pumping a fist at the ceiling.
"It's not next game yet," Carraka said. And he stabbed Majyk again.
Zero.
No one attempted/killed alone, which was interesting. The below actions aren’t really reflected in the story (aside from the results) but I wanted to make things interesting.

It's not if you win or lose; it's whether you die with style.
Survival by Suicide, corrupting the next generation one story at a time.
I can't wait to see Shadow's reaction.
If I had attempted to describe Majyk correctly, it would've been humiliating to get it wrong. Don't worry. Next time you can be tall and slim and blonde with low-cut jeans and a lower-cut blouse.
The thing I like about this game is that I have a plot: Will the bubbles be able to turn back into humans and kill Carraka?
-gasp-
Woah, Shad's not gonna be happy.
Great narration, Carr.

Shadow... had... the greatest death I have ever read...
QFT. Oh, so very QFT.
When I began reading, I was fuming at Shadow's opinion of Monkey Island, but by the end I was giggling and falling backwards in my chair, giddy as though rainbow bubbles had been painfully injected into my veins! Thanks for the wonderful death, Carr... but why would anyone be confused about my gender? Carr's the one who tries to baffle you all. I'm honest. Not usually, but in this case, yes.
I guess I don't have anything more to say on the subject. Sorry for falling off the face of YWO recently. I'm doing my best to yak it up here, but life keeps on gettin' me down. Like a whiny country song.
Anyway, you all are doomed by me! My soapy film against the cardboard of the dragon shall again be inflated by his fiery, er, cardboard breath - and my reign of terror shall TRULY commence.
Yeah, this time I'm gonna force you all to listen to me singing the Portal song... twice.
HUZZAH!
I'm alive!
After all you people tried to kill me!
HA!!!
Brilliant, Carr... I was giggling out loud the whole way through!
Shad... wow. Just wow.

i lived! Wootage! me first round and i lived. i was expecting some sort of horrible mutatilation. At least Kadath has been entertaining fantasies of how i would die.. likewise <_<
-Chie
No comment, yet. Must hide from psychotic girlfriend.
Edit: Comment added. Wow. Hahaha! I love it. It reminds me of me old days when I would just write absurd bullshit for fun. I hope Chie doesn't die, but I guess only time will tell >_> <_<
DID YOU HEAR THAT CHIE! I SAID I HOPE YOU DON'T DIE! NOW STOP THREATENING MEH! It's just a post on the internet!

I love you so much right now, Car! :D
And whatever happened to Shadow! I laughed out so loud when you just wrote 'Shadow died'
Carraka
06-24-2008, 05:44 PM
Assuming you were asking a question:
Shadow died.
That's all there is to it. Who cares what happened to him anyway?
Shadow
06-24-2008, 05:53 PM
...
I will say no more.
(hugs Shadow)
Aw Shad, don't let it get you down! Like Carraka says, what matters is that you died with style. And yes, I consider that style! YWO shall never forget the epic Death of Shadow.
(gives Shadow a cookie)
Carraka
06-24-2008, 07:55 PM
No, Pibs!
That death lacked style, and it was meant to disappoint.
I will shred your form now, because you are undermining my efforts to cause teenage boys on the other side of the ocean to throw fits of rage.
Revoking the cookie will not help you.
Dang, so much for that multi-colored CIA form... :rolleyes:
I stand by what I said before... it was stylish, as the world of YWO shall never forget it.
...But what if I gave yyooouuu FIVE cookies? And gave two more CIA reasons?
Carraka
06-24-2008, 08:02 PM
... cooooookies ...
No! I resist your temptations! I do not need total strangers to confirm my awesomosity! Cookies will make me fat! Like Majyk!
I stand by what I said before. Shadow's death sucked (in a memorable manner), and your form is still shredded.
Shadow
06-24-2008, 08:10 PM
I'm not in a rage.
Majyk
06-24-2008, 08:12 PM
... cooooookies ...
No! I resist your temptations! I do not need total strangers to confirm my awesomosity! Cookies will make me fat! Like Majyk!
I stand by what I said before. Shadow's death sucked (in a memorable manner), and your form is still shredded.
Oh thanks, Carr! For that, I need to post a picture of myself :mad:.
Pibs, give Carr a poisoned cookie for me next time, please ^^
But Carraaaakaaaaa....
They're chocolate-chip cookies.....
cookies......
COOOKIIIIEEEESSSS....
Majyk
06-24-2008, 08:15 PM
Yes, listen to Pibs :D
Carraka
06-24-2008, 11:13 PM
No, they've been poisoned.
And I'm already fat anyway.
*sigh* Fine. Kill me in the next round. See if I care. In fact, all you need to write is "Pibs died". That will be sufficient. *sniffle* (eats un-poisoned cookies)
:P :P :P
lango
06-24-2008, 11:33 PM
so, when does it show that I survived second round by shooting myself?
Was that a bluff?
Carraka
06-25-2008, 02:13 AM
I don't know. I find it interesting that few people are publicly declaring/lying about their actions in the threads.
Of course, I just did it with Majyk, so maybe we've started a movement.
Lykaios
06-25-2008, 08:33 AM
I was an orange? Hehe.
Shadow
06-25-2008, 05:26 PM
No, they've been poisoned.
And I'm already fat anyway.
You told the chatroom you were slim and beautiful. Well, something along those lines. :P

06-25-2008, 07:11 PM
I am silm and beautiful, XD
On the inside, XD
LONG LIVE THE PRINCESS OF THE PLUS SIZED PANTY!!

You told the chatroom you were slim and beautiful. Well, something along those lines. :P
And you believe everything I say?
-lumps you into the ScotsmanGroup-
Lily, you were a blue-orange-colored bubble. Don't ask me how something can be blue and orange at the same time.
Carraka
06-26-2008, 02:39 AM
Early tomorrow morning, I am going on vacation. If I have any luck, I'll have internet access, and I'll be able to post the next round.
But this doesn't seem to be like a lucky week, so you may have to wait until next Monday.
Tough. Everyone is waiting until next Monday.
Go bother Pibs.
Carraka
06-26-2008, 11:21 AM
A quick note before I head out:
Everyone shot themselves, so we're going to redo the round.
Pigs Pibs wanted to change her action to shooting the air (smart girl, she would've won,) but I'm hesitant to allow people to switch, and then she went and comforted Shadow against my wishes. Don't anger the Overlady.
So, send me your actions by next Monday, and I'll write-up the round when I get back.
Also -- some of the people who committed suicide in the first round (Pibs & Raf) were wildly successful, which is partially why I think everyone decided to shoot themselves this time.
What the...
CAAAARRRRAAAAAKKKKAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
...
...
You're not nice. :( I think I'll just shut up now, before I anger you any further.
Imelda
06-26-2008, 09:30 PM
Pink bubble. I LOVE IT. Even though I died, I'm happy. :)
GeorgeMichael
06-26-2008, 10:16 PM
lol, Pibs could have been the winner!
Now watch everyone shoot themselves again :P
Carraka
06-30-2008, 12:06 PM
I haven't received all the actions yet, even though I gave you all waaaay more than two days.
-sigh-
Okay, I'll PM the 24-hour reminder, because you guys are my fwends.
Carraka
06-30-2008, 05:28 PM
I've received all four actions, so the round will be up at tomorrow evening, at the latest.
And yes, there is a clear winner.
Carraka
07-02-2008, 01:41 AM
Sorry guys. It's really short, but I wanted to meet my deadline. I hope you enjoy it anyway.
Three.
Rafael was exulting in his new old human abilities. He had forgotten how wonderful it was to be able to breathe. To walk. To run. To blink, to bleed, to fart, to urinate, to fu and to smile.
Ahem.
But Rafael had not forgotten his earlier promise to find Carraka and exact his revenge. Now that he was no longer a bubble, it was easy to cover the distance that had before taken him an hour to traverse in only two minutes. He decided to return to the first building, where they had all first been turned into bubbles, and where Nyx had responded to the calling of the lightbulb. There, he would rest and decide how to begin his search for Carraka.
But when he returned to the theater, there was someone waiting on the stage for him.
Rafael advanced cautiously, keeping his eyes trained on the girl sitting by Majyk's corpse. She was a petite blonde, with beautiful blue eyes, mahogany brown hair and too much lipstick. Then he wondered how she could be blonde with brown hair.
"Who are you?" he said to the girl.
"Who are you?" she asked.
"I AM GOD." Rafael stamped out of the building. lango and Chie had gathered outside. Before he could pop them, they both slammed into each other. He noticed Pibs, plucked her from the air, and ate her.
Two.
One.
Zero.
Rafael - suicide
lango - Chie
Chie - lango
Pibs - Rafael
Congratulations, Rafael, you won! You have the option to narrate. Registration for Game II is open.
Carraka
07-02-2008, 01:46 AM
Just kidding.
"Who are you?" he said to the girl for a second time. She giggled, smoothing wrinkles out of her scarlet dress and holding up a bloody pencil.
"I'm Carraka's girlfriend. Who are you?"
"I'm Rafael," said Rafael.
"Oh!" Her hazel eyes lit up in recognition. "You're the one with multiple personalities! Carr talks about you a lot."
Rafael was pleased, but he tried to hide it. "Well, between you and me, I really only have one personality. All the other ones are fake. Don't tell anyone."
"I won't," Carraka's girlfriend said.
*Note: In order to save precious typing time, Carraka's girlfriend will now be abbreviated as: Carg. If Carraka had a boyfriend, that boyfriend would be named Carb. If Carraka had a dog – Card – and so on and so forth.
"Do you know where Carraka is?"
Carg shook her head, luscious scarlet locks of hair flying back and forth. "He just told me to stab Majyk if the girl came to life again. I've had to do it twice so far. It's gross." She held up two bloody hands.
Rafael suddenly realized that there was a better way to avenge himself. "Here," he said to Carg. "I'll handle Majyk for you. Give me the pencil."
"Okay." Carg handed him the pencil. He smiled maliciously, then stabbed her in the eye.
"Arrggh!" said Carg.
"Ha!" cried Rafael. "I killed your girlfriend, Carraka! Come out so I can kill you too!"
There was a loud noise behind him, and he whirled around. The shadows shifted.
Card slammed into Rafael and tore out the boy's throat. Carb picked up the bloody pencil and ate it.
Two.
Chie mourned Kadath's popment for hours, unable to decide whether life was worth living. What was life without true love? And even if she went on, she would only be a bubble. What was life as a bubble? Better to join Kadath in the afterlife, and if they were both bubbles in the afterlife – at least they would be together. She floated towards the dinosaur, trying to think of a sad song.
lango looked on silently, secretly glad that she had decided to commit suicide. He was tired of her tears, and her refusal to move on to better men.
Men like lango.
Except lango was a bubble, so ... never mind.
-
Although Pibs was blue, this did not mean that she was still not hungry. She theorized that if she absorbed enough of the other bubbles, she would grow bigger until she became human. As far as she knew, there were still lots of bubbles left. She would find them all.
But she did not find her first bubbles until after several hours of searching. She came upon Chie and lango, and was about to glide forward and consume them when she realized that Chie was entering the dinosaur's mouth. This was a strange ritual, so she moved closer for a better look. lango noticed her then, but he said nothing.
Chie entered the Allosaurus's mouth and spun around three times. She had decided to sing a love song, in honor of her late fiancé. At least, she hoped it was a love song.
I've been dreaming of a true love's kiss
and the Prince I'm hoping comes with this ...
That's what makes everaftering so happy!
The dinosaur's jaws clamped shut.
One.
lango backed away hastily from the dinosaur, while Pibs, intrigued, floated closer. The dinosaur began to thrash. It stomped around in a circle, roared mightily, and then sat down.
"I ... I guess I sang a happy song," the dinosaur said.
Two.
"It was a happy song," Pibs said. "I recognized it! That's what you sing when you're looking forward to finding true love. New love." Pibs frowned. "Hey, where did Kadath go? Does that mean you dumped him?"
Chie dashed madly forward and swallowed the blue-bubble-that-had-once-been-rainbow-colored whole.
One.
"LADDIES AND GENTLES, WELCOME TO BUBBLELAND'S GLADIATORIAL ARENA!!! IT'S FINE WEATHER TODAY FOR A FIGHT-TO-THE-DEATH. TODAY WE SHALL WATCH THE REMAINING TWO CONTESTANTS OF SBSIIGI BATTLE IT OUT, BUBBLE-STYLE. ON THE EASTSIDE, WE HAVE CHIE, WHO ... IS APPARENTLY STILL MOURNING, BUT NO WORRIES – SHE'LL FIGHT WHEN WE START. AND ON THE WESTSIDE, WE HAVE LANGO, WHOSE NAME RHYMES WITH MANGO. HE IS OTHERWISE INCREDIBLY UNSPECTACULAR. NOW, LET'S LOOK AT THE ODDS. HERE IS CHIE, A FULL-GROWN ALLOSAURUS. AND HERE IS LANGO, A FULL-GROWN ... BUBBLE. HMMM. THERE'S NO SPORT IN THIS, SO WE'LL TURN CHIE BACK INTO A BUBBLE. THERE WE GO! WHAT'S THAT YOU SAY? BUBBLES DON'T HAVE BLOOD? I PROMISE YOU, YWO, THE GROUND WILL BE DRENCHED CRIMSON BEFORE THE SUN HAS SET. THAT'S RIGHT! THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH SHALL BE TURNED INTO A HUMAN, AND THEN SLAUGHTERED BY A POKÉMON OF YOUR CHOICE! ALTHOUGH WE HAVEN'T CAUGHT THEM ALL, SO YOU CAN ONLY CHOOSE FROM THESE TWENTY-SEVEN– "
BubbleLand has no Gladiatorial Arena. Such arenas are deemed inappropriate for children of young ages. Also, generous use of the caps lock button is frowned upon.
–
Now that Chie had eaten Pibs, who had been hungry, Chie was hungry herself. She looked around to eat lango, but the crafty ol' bubble had hidden inside a tuna can. And bubbles weren't very filling anyway. Chie stalked off towards the last place where she remembered seeing blood. lango followed a distance. He was painfully aware of the odds he had against a full-grown Allosaurus. So much for his lango victory.
Upon arrival at the lightbulb building, Chie was enraged to find she could not fit through the door. She could smell the blood just on the other side, so she rammed herself again and again into the doorframe. lango watched in horror from a distance. Even if he turned himself into a human again, he was certain that Chie would eat him anyway.
Then there was a loud crash, and the entire wall of the building crumbled. Chie dashed into the room and was delighted to find not one corpse, but three: Majyk's, Rafael's, and Carg's. She began to feast. Loudly, messily, and sexily happily.
When she was finished, she was still hungry, and her eyes fixed on lango. The bubble fled.
–
They raced through BubbleLand, splashing through the painted rivers, crashing through the cardboard underbrush. They raced past the sign Rafael had popped himself on, and past all the other moving dinosaurs (which turned out to be mechanical). They raced past the place where the cardboard sun hung in the sky.
Finally, lango came to a stop outside a tremendous barn. This one had an entrance big enough for Chie to enter, but he ran in anyway. The dinosaur thundered into the building after him. lango made for the window on the other side, and squeezed through the crack, panting. Then he realized that he had been utterly stupid. All he had to do to escape from Chie was float up!
D'oh.
lango was about to do this when he noticed a button outside the window that was flashing gold and silver. It was labelled: PRESS TO ACTIVATE POPCORN PLAN. lango had no extra appendages, but he pressed the button with the power of the plot his desperate mind.
–
Inside the barn, Chie was considering breaking the window, when the door behind her slammed shut, and the window dropped, almost slicing her tongue. She roared angrily, and something small and tiny fell on her nose. She sniffed. It was ... corn? Chie snapped up the corn kernel. Another one landed several feet away. She licked that one up too. It was raining corn kernels! And then, it was pouring! Monsooning! Chie was besides herself with joy. She gorged herself on popcorn kernels.
After she was done, the kernels were still falling. She curled up in the center of the floor. It was very hot in this room, and she was suddenly very sleepy.
–
When Chie woke up again, it was unbearably hot. Maybe that’s how the dinosaurs died. It was more than unbearable now. It was scorching. She groaned and lifted her tail, which had been buried by kernels.
Pop.
She tasted something fluffy in her mouth and spat it out. Popcorn. She would have eaten it again, if she hadn’t been so full. If it weren’t so hot.
Pop. Pop.
Pop. Pop. Pop. Pop.
Pop. Pop. Pop. Pop. Pop. Pop. Pop. Pop. Pop. Pop. Pop. Pop. Pop. Pop.
All around her, the kernels jumped and became white. Chie struggled weakly against the tide of fallen white, trying to reach the door.
Poph. Poph.
There were noises coming from her belly. Chie roared in pain, and bits of white spilled out of her mouth. She crawled again towards the door.
PophPopPophPopPophPopPopPopPophPopPophPophPopPophPophophPopPophPopPophPopPopPopPophPopPophPophPopPop hPop

POP-splatshch
Beeep. Beeep. Beeeeeep.
The window opened, and hot air spilled out. “Thank you for using the MicrowaveBarnTM. We hope you enjoy your movie.”
Zero.
lango looked down at where the huge dinosaur had popped. Popcorn and intestines tangled together on the floor.
“Wait … don’t I get to be a human now?”
A huge white sign fell from the sky and stabbed the ground beside him. He read:
Congratulations, lango!
Registration is now open for SBS II: Game II. lango the mango bubble has the option to narrate.
Rafael – suicide
lango – Chie
Chie – Pibs
Pibs – air

If you had read the spoiler section carefully, you would've noticed I copied a few actions incorrectly. I intentionally posted it late. Hopefully most people won't scroll down, but even if they do, at least I tricked you.
Chie'N'Kadath
07-02-2008, 02:22 AM
When I first looked in here there was the 'incorrect' version. Then I noticed it after posting that the real version was in there. But I guess it's my fault for taking 15 minutes to type a response because I was busy doing some other crap. Multitasking ftl.
Carraka
07-02-2008, 02:24 AM
No, really.
I seriously posted the first version, then went off and replied to another thread. Then I checked Who's Online, and once I saw that you were reading the incorrect version, I posted the correct one.
And also -- you guys are getting married on July 5th? This Saturday?
lango
07-02-2008, 03:42 AM
Dang, I actually DID win! I call that I'll win the lottery tomorrow.
Lets see how that goes, Ill keep you guys updated :P
Btw I think Ill pass my narrating super-powers to... Carraka!! If she doesnt accept it, power goes back to... Carraka!! Mwahahahah
Who knows, maybe when I win the second round I might narrate :P
Chie'N'Kadath
07-02-2008, 07:16 AM
And also -- you guys are getting married on July 5th? This Saturday?
We actually meant to have it a couple weeks ago but couldn't get it arranged in a manner that would fit our schedule. I proposed awhile ago, our plans are just really out of order.

I wonder what Raf will say, his poor hopes are going to get shot down :P
Lango doesn't want to narrate?
... well, Car... if you don't want to narrate again... ... ... *subtle hint...*
:D

07-02-2008, 12:50 PM

At once I thought of you.

Yay, I get to narrate.
*Cheers for Carraka*!!!
ok... now to sit and think over my narration while you all sign up for the games...
Yes... my time has come, all of you that laughed at my future predictions will laugh no more, you reign of superiority has ended... I will rule all!!!
MUAHAHAHAHA
@MM - Whatever! The deadline is today. Deal.

Got all three of you.
You can rule everyone except the Overlady, GM. I've thought of worse deaths than the one I gave Shadow.

Registration closes Friday, July 4th.
GeorgeMichael
07-03-2008, 02:11 AM
hmm... and if you all send your actions in by then or on that day I'll have the story posted most likely on the same day so it can be an Independence Day style narration :)
(I'm not saying that's the theme :P )
lango
07-04-2008, 03:29 AM
um.. no point in sending actions before registration is closed really, because if everyone sent an action just as they registered, the last guy just has to shoot the air to have a guaranteed spot on second round :P
Carraka
07-04-2008, 03:38 AM
That is why you guys get two days after registration closes to send in your actions.
But I've already sent my action anyway. What do I care what you people do?
Just pretend it's the 4th of July anyway, George. Unless it takes you three weeks to write one round, they'll be in close enough proximity.
GeorgeMichael
07-04-2008, 04:30 AM
True true...
:)
and Lango makes a good point... maybe I was making a deal with someone... inside job... eh? eh?
I'm not though... ... ...
:unsure:
Carraka
07-04-2008, 04:36 AM
Being a narrator requires unexpected integrity.
Actually when I post announcements, I try not to list the number of people that still owe me actions, and even less who those people are. Everything has to be bloody equal, so if any cheating happens, at least I can't be blamed. If the narrator isn't neutral, what's left?
o.O If narrators did cheat -- that would undermine the entire game. That thought is so awful that I want to instantly forget it.
Carraka
07-05-2008, 01:51 PM
Yah, so registration is closed. Send your actions to George. If you don't know what to do, you can shoot me, because I'm shooting Majyk.
GeorgeMichael
07-05-2008, 04:13 PM
ok, I'll try to say this without giving away too much... I recently got two actions (really recently) so the two who sent those are fine.
If you sent in an action before... yesterday then please send again because my PM's are gone from yesterday and anytime before that... (I always wondered what happened if your PM box reached 100% full...)
Anyways yeah, and that means that I have two actions... ... out of thirteen :P
Tsuki
07-05-2008, 05:23 PM
THIRTEEN'S UNLUCKY!!!!

Your annihilation is imminent.
lango
07-05-2008, 07:39 PM
So... now, since I won the last game, I shall shoot myself since, obviously, one of you will try to shoot me to stop me from getting my second victory

I can sign you up automatically for the next round, though.

only two actions left... ...
GeorgeMichael
07-07-2008, 02:25 PM
hmm... I don't really like where this went, but here's this first round.
Pibs went rushing through the lands on the back of her trusty llama Merryweather as she headed for the town. She knew it was up to her to save a young girl’s life.
Shadow jumped through a large yellow circle in the ground to the center of the town square, all pedestrians taking no notice that he materialized out of nothing in front of them, and headed towards the bar. He knew that it was up to him to save a young girl’s life.
Imelda jumped from the tallest building in town down towards the stable, as she fell she knew that it was up to her to end a young girl’s life. She landed with a resounding crash as she hit several crates down below, sending dust and chipped wood flying everywhere. She got up and limped over to the pub.
Inside the pub Carraka and Majyk waited by the doors, suspecting an assassin as each person came in through them. They held out their guns parallel towards each other and watched as nearly each enterer nearly pissed in their pants on their way in. Majyk quickly peeked over to the bar where Lango and Ichigo sat, guns hidden in their jackets, taking shots that were filled with pure water to keep up their focus. In the corner three people sat who were not involved with this task. They were a part of the team but they had decided that their own lives were far more important than joining the team as a whole, and as a result Chie, Kadath, and Rafael sat in the corner, as drunk as an Irish stereotype, laughing wildly and telling each other that they loved them. Up the stairs of the bar Jinxeh sat nervously, peering out through the window occasionally, waiting to see if the aforementioned assassination attempt would indeed occur. She had hired the best protection she could find and she hoped that it would be enough. She had heard that the assassin was a woman; a woman of great intelligence, incredible stealth, and unbelievable efficiency. She knew that if the entire room could not stop the assassin that she would die that very same day. She had a nice chuckle as a stupid woman crashed into some stacked crates on the other side of the square and felt a nice sort of relief inside. She looked back towards the door to her room where Lykaios stood, arms glowing. Lykaios was a spell caster, and one of the best in the world. Even the great kings and rulers of the land feared the power that Lykaios had, and for that Jinxeh had paid a great deal for protection from her. As Jinxeh stared back out the window she noticed nothing that caught her eye, no people walking around and no movements in the streets, and it was this complete emptiness, this nothing, that scared her more than anything else.
Outside Imelda moved swiftly through the shadows, heading for the bar after her leg had healed, and approached a building nearby. Shadow reached the bar door and was about to enter as Pibs came rushing into the square and jumped off of Merryweather upon seeing Shadow.
“Shadow, awfully quiet today isn’t it?” Pibs asked as she joined him at the entrance to the bar.
“It is strange. When I arrived the streets were as busy as the could be, then everyone started leaving the square, dropping everything they were doing, and I haven’t seen anyone since then.”
“Well, there’s someone over there.” Pibs pointed to the entrance of the square where a young girl merrily skipped around kicking rocks on the street and laughing. Shadow smiled as he watched Tsuki dance around in all of her innocence and turned to head back into the bar. As he reached for the door knob Imelda’s scream filled the air and Shadow quickly created a yellow portal on the ground and made a blue one far away at another building and jumped in. Pibs looked in horror at the approaching assassin and seemed to be in too much shock to follow Shadow down the portal. Pibs quickly turned to run away but tripped over her own foot and went flying down, causing the side of her head to crash against a sharp rock that was nearby. Imelda looked down upon Pibs dead body and laughed. Imelda picked Pibs lifeless body up and held it straight. She easily threw it through the door and as it went flying by she saw two bullets fly from both sides of the door and fly past the body. Whoever had shot those two bullets were now dead. Imelda heard the screams and cries from inside the bar and she stepped forward only to be met by Shadow popping out again, this time with his sword unsheathed. He slashed for Imelda who was quick to bring out her own sword. The two clashed metals as Shadow attempted to teleport all around Imelda only to be met with a fierce resistance. Shadow knew that Imelda was the greatest swordfighter in the land and that he himself was only number two. As the great swordfight continued Lango and Ichigo were inside the bar attempting in vain to help out Carraka and Majyk who had idiotically stood where they knew they could shoot themselves.
“They’re dead.” Lango declared.
Kadath, Chie, and Rafael were no on full alert and Rafael looked in anger as his friend lay bleeding on the floor after being thrown through the door. He took out his gun and angrily shot the air only to be met from screams above. Kadath looked around, “I’ll go tell her what happened.”
Kadath ran towards the stairs leaving the chaos behind. Each step she took echoed loudly on the nearly broken stairs and as she opened the door she looked in horror as a shiny new axe came hurdling towards her. She barely had time to react and in an instant the blade of the axe was dripping rubies and Kadath’s head went bouncing back down the stairs as Jinxeh screamed at her mistake. Chie watched in horror as Kadath’s head rolled past her and felt the blood rush to his head. Unfortunately there was too much rushing of the blood and Chie passed out instantly, falling onto the table unconscious.
“I’ll go check on her, we have to defend Jinxeh more now.” Lango said as he ran towards the stairs. “Jinxeh, Lykaios, I’m coming up!” Lango declared.
Outside the swordfight continued as Imelda was quickly leading Shadow towards an enclosed alleyway. Shadow finally reached the end of the path and as he was about to make a portal to get away Imelda swung her sword fro the ground towards the sky and sent Shadow’s sword flying away into the distance. She held the sword to his neck and he knew he was trapped.
“So this is what it’s come to? This is how it’s going to end? I’ve got to say I’m a little disappointed Shadow, I mean after our last Fiasco in a GeorgeMichael narrated theme you put up more of a fight, now that you have a new power you can’t beat me?” Imelda laughed as she began to draw blood from Shadow’s neck.
“I killed you then Imelda, you know that I could do it again if I even tried at all, right now I just want to die, I know I can’t help that poor girl.”
“Of course you do, that’s why you lost, because you WANTED to.”
“Yes, just like I wanted to take your pirate hat, and I succeeded at that, it’s something you’ve never forgiven me for and I think you still cower at night in fear that I’ll take another one of your precious hats.”
Imelda screamed in memory of this as she pulled back her sword and sent it thrusting forward. Shadow immediately made two portals, one right behind his own head and one covering his body. He tilted his head to the side and as Imelda’s blade entered the portal through Shadow’s body, it came out beside his head and struck Imelda right between the eyes. Shadow walked away slowly and left Imelda’s corpse to rot at the end of that dark alleyway.
In the bar Lango reached Jinxeh’s room and looked inside. Lykaios was on high alert and Jinxeh was crying in the corner.
“I didn’t know. I thought it was the assassin with all the commotion, and then shots came up from the floor.” Jinxeh cried and Lango nodded as he looked around. He nearly jumped when he saw a girl’s face at the window. He immediately shot towards her and hit nothing but glass when she disappeared completely. Lykaios looked around and felt a cold chill go down his back.
“Hello Lango.” Lykaios said with a dark blank stare emitting from her eyes.
“Lykaious?” Lango asked as he walked towards her.
Lykaious raised his arm and shot a quick death spell towards Lango. A large purple figure came up from the ground and flew towards Lango. It withdrew a long bony hand from it’s shadow’s and reached for Lango’s heart. As it made contact however a blinding flash of light emitted and before anyone could blink the figure stood in the room holding Lykaios’ heart in it’s hand. It quickly disappeared back into the ground as the blood rushed out of the newly formed hole in Lykaios chest. Lykaios fell to the ground and the young girl that Lango had seen outside of the window emerged from the body.
“He cast an anti spell shield on you? What an asshole, well it was his own undoing really. Let’s take care of you two now.” Tsuki said as she smiled and caused both Lango and Jinxeh to hover above the ground. She grunted as she sent both of them flying through the back wall, crashing through, and hurdling to the streets below. Jinxeh flew by the fountain and landed close to Shadow’s feet and Lango crashed into the head of the fountain sending debris flying everywhere as he fell down to the water below. Tsuki looked as Lango and Jinxes both slowly bur surely began getting up with Shadow’s help. She growled in anger and heard the voices coming up from down stairs. She headed for the door and was met eye to eye with the entire bar, wanting her death.

All right, here's round two
Tsuki gave a deafening yell as she rushed towards the entrance. Ichigo was taken off guard and Chie shot a bullet towards Tsuki’s head but missed. Recovering from the shock Ichigo watched as Tsuki ran out and grabbed her gun. She flipped her arm as she raised her gun and fired. The bullet slowly curved as it rushed out the door following Tsuki. Tsuki looked in amazement as she caught the bullet in her fingers. “She can curve bullets.” Tsuki thought. She dodged to the side as Shadow’s sword came hurtling down into the ground beside her. She sent lightning bolts towards Shadow who raised his sword in front of him to deflect the electricity attack. Tsuki closed her fist and caused the bolts to intensify which made Shadow’s sword shatter.
“Poor Shadow,” Tsuki muttered as she made him rise in the air and his body tighten, “ let’s see how tough you are when we get your own friends to kill you. Let’s get Lango after you, I hear he’s quite gifted like you, and ah yes, The Bullet Curver. You’re quite taken with her aren’t you?”
“No.” Shadow spit out as Tsuki began crushing him even harder. Tsuki sent Shadow flying towards a wall but he portaled away before impact. In anger Tsuki clapped her hands causing Lango to come flying towards her, and Ichigo to come shooting out the window to her position. Tsuki snapped her fingers and Lango’s and Ichigo’s eyes turned into a purple shade, lifeless. “Kill him.” She said as they landed on the ground and looked up. As Lango used his incredible strength to pick up the remains of the fountain to hurl at Shadow, Jinxeh ran back towards the bar to seek refuge. Ichigo flipped her arm and sent a bullet flying towards an empty space that she was staring at. “Let’s see Angelina Jolie predict this good.” Ichigo said as Shadow appeared in that exact spot and had the bullet fly right through his left kneecap. Shadow screamed as he looked to the side and felt the full blast of the entire fountain smashing straight into his face. The fountain took him flying all the way into a nearby building which immediately crumbled upon impact onto Shadow’s body. Through the debris Shadow knew that he was done for, he didn’t have the energy to make any more portals. As Tsuki, Ichigo, and Lango walked towards Shadow’s location, Chie was watching Jinxeh run into the bar.
“Jinxeh!” Chie yelled, “Stay in here, I’m going to go and kill Tsuki before she can do more damage!”
Jinxeh nodded as Chie ran away but soon she saw Tsuki in her sight. As Chie ran out of the building Jinxeh took out a magic gun that Lykaios had given her. It had one bullet that wouldn’t stop until it hit a beating heart. She began to pull it out and head for the door. She raised the gun and aimed it at Tsuki but as she walked she slipped on some nearby spilt beer… and fell hard on her back, her head crashing into the wooden floor. This impact caused the gun to fire and the bullet traveled into the air. It smashed through the roof and Jinxeh heard a strange cry coming from above. She looked in confusion as a large object fell from the roof right in front of the front door, blocking all entrance and exit. Soon her head injury took hold and she felt the blood seeping out of her head. Alive, but injured, Jinxeh passed out. High above in heaven Pibs cried as Merryweather, the last Flying Llama in existence, was shot on the roof of the bar and fell to her death.
Outside Tsuki had recovered Shadow’s bloody body and made it hover in between the three of them. Lango, Tsuki, and Ichigo each took out a gun and pointed it at Shadow’s head. Shadow used all power left in him to turn to Ichigo and looked into her eyes.
“Ichi, don’t you remember me? All those nights we spent on the beach, just laughing until sun set? Watching as the Moon slowly drifted off to a sleep that we would never reach? You held my hand and looked into my eyes just like you are now and you told me that you loved me. I know you weren’t lying Ichi, I could feel it, and I know that you there is still a part of you inside there right now. She couldn’t have taken over you completely, I know you can still hear me Ichi. Please, don’t do this, help Ichigo, I love you. Don’t you remember? Don’t you remember when I said that I loved you too, when you agreed to marry me Ichi? Don’t you remember any of it?” Shadow felt a tear come out of his eyes as Ichigo began to smile. Shadow felt a little relief inside.
“No.” Ichigo muttered and all three shot their bullets directly into Shadow’s shocked face, completely blowing it out of existence. Tsuki dropped his headless body and turned around only to be met with the barrel of Chie’s gun pointed directly between her eyes.
“Now Chie, I know you want to kill me more than anything, but if you kill me now, then these two next to me will go crazy under the spell. They’ll kill everything that’s around them until there’s only one. They’ll commit suicide to make that happen. I can take it all away and I can make live a prosperous life, long and rich. Wouldn’t you like that? You can live luxuriously or die here today, and I promise you will if you kill me.”
“You killed Kadath.” Chie cried.
“Technically Jinxeh threw the blade that chopped Kadath’s head off. Don’t you hate her for that? Let me go and I can make sure that she will suffer for it, and I can also bring back Kadath for you.” Tsuki smiled.
“You’re lying.” Chie cried once more, grasping her gun even tighter.
Tsuki raised one arm and Shadow’s body lifted. His head began to materialize back onto his neck and Chie watched in amazement as Shadow was alive once more moving around and everything. Chie began to release her grip on her gun when suddenly she just felt Kadath’s presence. “Chie! She’s lying, do it now Chie! End this!” Chie had her eyes closed and heard Kadath’s words inside her head well. She re opened her eyes and Tsuki looked a bit nervously as Chie tightened her grip.
“Now Chie, I can bring Kadath back, I promise you, in fact…” Tsuki started.
“Shut up, bitch.” Chie said as she pulled the trigger and sent a bullet flying directly through Tsuki’s head leaving a perfectly shaped hole between her eyes. Chie stared directly through Tsuki’s third eye before it began to leak blood down her nose and drip from her lips to the ground. As Tsuki’s dead body, and Shadow’s once again exploded head body, fell to the floor Chie looked at Ichigo and Lango whose purple shaded eyes had now turned red. Chie began running as Lango and Ichigo raised their guns towards Chie and each other. Now the madness would indeed begin. And Merryweather wasn’t here to help.

I forgot Raffy in SBS...
RAFFY! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN! WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME??? :P
I feel so horrible now... ... ...
Well, at least Rafael's still alive... so guys, five people still alive... Rafael stayed hidden even from the narrator, I guess he deserves congratulations for that... somehow...

Last Round :) What a nice set of actions you all sent...hope you like how it ended.
“No one noticed I was gone. Nobody in this world cares for me.” Rafael sat in the corner of the bar after watching Jinxeh run in. He grasped his gun in his hand and placed it in his mouth.
“Rafael, you’re here? Help me!” Jinxeh screamed. Rafael looked at her and then closed her eyes. “Goodbye.” Rafael pulled the trigger and sent a bullet flying into his skull causing his jaw to break and dangle from his head, yet he was alive. He coughed up blood and dropped the gun and began screaming, but he was alive. He had found new purpose. Someone must have wanted him alive, he was more important than he thought. And then Jinxeh shot him in the head as well.
“Worthless piece of shit tried to kill himself instead of help me,” She said as she put her gun away and walked towards the back of the bar.
Outside the rage was worsening. Ichigo and Lango had completely lost their minds and had sent bullets flying everywhere. Chie ducked as a bullet flew right over her head and she watched the chaos that the two were creating. Ichigo had grabbed Lango’s gun and begun smashing his head in but Lango’s strength caused him to take no notice of the pain. He shouted as he raised Ichigo into the air and sent her flying through a nearby window. Lango looked among the dust and was met with a bullet curving straight into his kneecap. He growled in anger as he rushed forward. He ran towards the building when Ichigo came jumping out of the window. Lango’s crash with the walls sent the building tumbling down upon him and Ichigo watched as the debris piled on top of her enemy.
Ichigo smiled as the dust cleared and showed nothing but a mountain of rubble, but her smile soon faded when one of the rocks began to crack. She reached for her gun when she saw Lango leap out of the rocks and land five feet in front of her, his gun also at the ready. There was no where to run.
Chie made a break for it and ran from her hiding spot behind a door and made a sprint for the bar, but Lango and Ichigo were too quick for her. They quickly jumped right beside her and had her enclosed between them. They both held their guns to her head. Chie closed her eyes, and once more she heard Kadath’s voice inside her. “CHIE!” It shouted. Chie’s eyes shot open and she grabbed Ichigo’s and Lango’s arm. With a resounding crack she broke both their elbows and pointed them towards their owner’s faces. Without flinching she gripped both pressure points on the arms causing the triggers to pull and both bodies fell with a resounding thump.
She sighed and walked away towards the bar leaving the corpses behind her. As she entered the bar she looked around and saw Jinxeh in the middle of the room tied up to a chair. She was about to move forward when she felt a force push her forward. She went tumbling towards Jinxeh and was about to fall when she caught herself on some round object that was placed on the table. She gripped it tight and pulled herself up. She looked down at her hand, she was now gripping onto a live grenade, only feet away from Jinxeh. She looked over and saw that Jinxeh also had duct tape around her mouth, it had been a trap. She looked around and noticed a figure in the corner. Rafael emerged from the corner.
“Welcome Chie, to the final test that I have prepared. I will keep it simple for you, Jinxeh’s life is in your hands. I shot myself and she shot me, I should be dead but someone really wants me alive so here I am. I have the power to heal just like Tsuki did, but I never thought it was this strong, why would I test it so harshly? It turns out this power's better than I thought. So now I want this betraying piece of crap dealt with, and I'm sorry I had to drag you into it but you're part of the game too... so here's the plan; you can let go of the grenade and run, it will give you plenty of time to do so, but it will leave poor Jinxeh here to die. Or you can do what you swore to do and throw yourself over the grenade to protect her, I promise you she won’t die,” Rafael turned into mist and remade himself next to Chie, “So you better hurry, I’m not sure how long that grenade will wait before it randomly blows.” Rafael said smiling. He stepped backwards as Chie looked at him.
“Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiit.” Chie moaned as she let go of the grenade and hauled ass towards the door. Rafael looked in shock as she left so abruptly. “Well, it sucks to be you Jinxeh.” He aid as he disappeared. Jinxeh looked ahead and in a second the grenade blew up.
Chie lives

I made it this far, eh? So its a one on one, eh? Interesting. I'll have to give this some thought. Hmm, if I commit suicide and he shoots me, I live. If it happens in reverse, he lives. But what if we both commit suicide or both shoot each other? Hmm... *thinks for a few minutes* Okay, I'm stumped. Entering paradox mode. *Chies head a'splode*
GeorgeMichael
07-27-2008, 06:42 AM
ok. Final Round :) For real this time.
“That was cold Chie”
Rafael’s voice echoed throughout the dark room. Chie attempted to look around but couldn’t tell anything about her surroundings. She didn’t see a glimpse of light beyond the small lamp that hovered above her head and it only gave off a dim shine.
“Where am I?” Chie called out, she had no recollection of anything that had happened. She remembered running out on Jinxeh but after that her mind drew a blank. She tried to move herself but found that she was tightly tied up to a chair and could hardly move an inch. Now that she actually knew it was there she was finding it increasingly difficult to breathe.
“Memory. It’s such a flimsy little function isn’t it? One minute you can see your entire life flash before your eyes and in the next moment you can’t remember driving home at night.”
“What did you do to me?” Chie yelled. She struggled to get free but to no avail, the ropes actually seemed to tighten but she was sure it was just her mind doing that to her.
“Did you feel any remorse for what you did Chie? I mean, you let that poor girl die; that poor defenseless child that you swore an oath to protect. She had faith in you to do your job and you just abandoned her.” As Rafael ended his sentence a loud crashing noise came from above and Chie looked up to see the lamp swinging back and forth. She looked around as the light traveled across the room but saw nothing but walls in front of her. Suddenly she heard footsteps.
“What did you want me to do? It was either her or me. I did what I had to do.” Chie said as she attempted to turn her head to try and see Rafael.
“What you had to do? What you had to do was protect Jinxeh. That’s what she hired you to do, she hired you to keep her alive no matter what it meant.” More footsteps echoed across the room as the lamp’s swinging started to slow.
“She hired you too Rafael! You were hired to protect her as well and you put her in that position to die!” Chie yelled as she tried desperately one more time to break free but only managed to slightly move the chair to the left. Chie felt an ice cold hand on her shoulder as Rafael sent the barrel of his gun straight into Chie’s mouth, chipping off two of her teeth.
“She shot me through the head Chie. Did that happen to you?” Rafael growled as Chie’s tears rolled down the gun onto Rafael’s gripped hand. Chie managed to yell out a pained ‘No’ before she began to pass out from the pain of even inhaling air. Rafael took the gun out of Chie’s mouth and sent his hand flying across her face waking her up. He placed the gun back between her teeth.
“Would you like to know what it feels like?” Rafael asked, his smile burning an image into Chie’s eyes.
“What do you want from me?” Chie cried out in anger and pain.
“It’s not about what I want Chie, it’s about finding things out. It’s about finding out what’s more important to you. Now, I’m going to ask you some questions, and every time you lie to me I’m going to hurt you, and I promise you that you will be feeling this for the rest of your life. Do you understand me?” Rafael lowered his head right next to Chie’s and she felt the cold breath of death that he was emitting. Chie simply nodded.
“Good, now let’s start you off clean shall we?” Rafael pulled the gun out of Chie’s mouth and heard Rafael mutter something. Almost instantly Chie’s teeth grew back to their original form.
“First question. Why did you take this job?”
“I needed the money.”
“How much did Jinxeh give you?”
“68 million.” Chie cried.
“That’s the amount she gave everyone Chie. And what did you promise to do for all of that money.”
“I promised to protect her. I said that if it came to it, I would give my life to protect hers.”
“Were you lying?”
“No.” Chie looked away after answering.
“You just dramatically changed your mind then? At the last second, when she was truly counting on you to make good on your promise.”
“Things changed!” Chie yelled and was met with the end of the gun bashing the side of her cheek in. She could feel the blood rapidly escaping from her face.
“Things changed? Things changed! Of course. Jinxeh was attacked and you realized that she wasn’t being paranoid after all. You realized that you might actually have to give your life for her and so you panicked and decided to call it quits and keep the money anyway. You live, she dies, and you have 68 million, it was a complete win for you wasn’t it?”
“No! Kadath was killed there. It was because of her that Kadath was killed.”
“Kadath took the same oath that you did Chie! He knew the risks in taking the job. A person does not pay 68 million dollars for chump protection. Everyone who took the job knew that there was a high percentage of death but she trusted you because you were all professionals, you were all the best at what you do and you abandoned her at the time of need.”
“It was supposed to be planned out.” This caused Rafael to look up.
“What?”
“Kadath and I had it all planned out. We were going to run away as soon as we heard trouble coming, but it broke out so fast and he was just killed instantly, I didn’t know what to do.” Tears were once again flowing down Chie’s face, mixing in with the blood that was still copiously dropping from her cheek.
“Planned out. It was all just a part of the plan? Was this some sort of sick game to you. Do you live your life ripping people off Chie?” Rafael’s voice was rising and Chie turned her head, unable to face him.
“ANSWER ME!” Rafael yelled as he grabbed her chin and forced her to stare into his dark cold eyes.
“YES!” Chie yelled out, “It’s how Kadath and I made our money, we posed as mercenaries and bodyguards for hire. Then we would wait to run away as soon as trouble came and in the end we would pick off the survivors so no one would know.”
Rafael just stared back into Chie’s eyes. “You deceiving little bitch. You like games do you? Well, I have a game for you to play, the rules are simple, Either you die instantly, or you wait it out, holding on to life for as long as you can. Enjoy your death you lying piece of shit.” With those final words Rafael pulled out two guns and quickly emptied the magazines into the floor. As soon as the last bullets flew out Rafael quickly placed the barrels on both of Chie’s eyes and her screams almost made her lungs collapse. Rafael cut the ropes binding Chie together and she fell to the ground, her screams still filling the room and her eyeballs now just two cigarette burns in a hole. Rafael dialed a number on his phone, blew out the lamp, and in an instant was gone. Chie heard a piece of metal hit the ground. She cried and cried out for help but no one was there. She slowly dragged herself across the floor and reached for the object that Rafael had left. She picked up the gun and felt its cool metal. She knew that this was a different gun than what Rafael had used on her. This one had bullets in it. She decided that it would be easier to do it without thinking. She raised the gun to her mouth and pulled the trigger.
Chie’s eyes opened slowly and she felt herself slowly getting up. She looked around and could now see the entire room perfectly. It was just a small enclosed space, with the chair in the middle and a single door at the wall behind her. She then looked down and saw her dead body lying in a lake of blood. Before she could react to the sight of her own death a small amount of mist emerged from the corner. She stared into it and slowly the figure of a person began to materialize. Her eyes widened as Kadath approached her. He slowly held his hand out and she reached out to grab his. A mere inches away from the man she loved, Chie was interrupted by the door being slammed open. She quickly felt a powerful force in the pit of her stomach and saw Kadath now moving farther and farther away from her. She tried to yell out but as silenced and was once again in complete silence, never to be release again. Rafael emerged from the door and looked at the man who had slammed the door open.
“Thanks for coming so quickly Dr. Venkman.” Rafael said as he smiled and shook the mans hand.
“Of course kid, and remember, next time you have any ghost problems you can always call Ghost Busters.”
Rafael nodded and Venkman left leaving Rafael standing in the room alone with Chie’s body.

So Raffy has the option to narrate.
I woke up so full of energy in the morning, and then I had to change the sig, first post in the thread, and all ... and I still have to write the TW round.
Good read, George! It was suspenseful. In the beginning I guessed Raff would win because Chie was .. well, in a chair, and then I guessed that Chie would win because it was her POV, and then this happened instead. xP

I just talked to Raffy, and he doesn't want to narrate this round.
x.x
So all power comes back to me, and I don't want to narrate, for two reasons:
1) I'm going on vacation tomorrow.
2) I'm 'ing tired of writing SBS rounds. I know I've only done five, but I'm starting feel like I'm repeating jokes. It's harder for me to write rounds on time, and I seriously need to take a three-week break before my humor becomes too forced.
Therefore, narration is open. Does anyone want to narrate?
Could I narrate? If not, then please sign me up for this round!
[Have fun at vaca, Carr ^^]

Thanks!
I'd like to see first if anyone new wants to narrate, but if not, then it'll be you.
Also as a note: Oscar has promised to update my sig and stuff while I'm away, so yay for him!
Yea it'd be better to give it to someone new.
And yay for Georgie. D:
Sign me up, by the way!
Feeeeeaaaar the evil ducky...

Lykaios is on vacation until the 17th, and I'm not leaving until this afternoon, so she has requested that I remove her name from the registration list blah blah blah.

Ooh! Ooh! Can I narrate? I was kind of hoping for that chance before the last round in which I died.
Carraka

Yeah, okay.
Chie is our new narrator!
Now that we have a narrator, I feel pretty safe closing registration at the end of the month (tomorrow).

CAR!
thakn god this thread open... only a few have been opening on this computer.
Hey, I quickly came to one of my aunt's house to use the computer and I won't be coming back (not able to) and I won't be able to do your sig :( I thought I would because last year my grandma had internet access but they ran out of money and couldn't pay for it so we don't have it anymore and I won't have it until I get a new house which should be sometime this month but I really have no known date :(
Sorry about that, I really thought that they would still have internet.... I didn't know it was something you could cut off or that you paiud for :(
so you're going to have to ask zombie I think :(
I'm sorry, and I won't be able to participate in this next round. unlesss we get a house soon which I am desperately hoping for... ok that's 2/3, now to ifnally post on the goodbye thread...

... the edit button is gone... ... ...
well sorry fgor the doube post but I just saw that Carraka is probably already gone... I have to leave almost instantly and I don't think I could find Zombie's name to PM him so if anyone sends him a message or viewer's conversation thing could you ask himn to look here.
"Zombie... I need your help, I was going to help Carraka but I thought I was going to have internet access and I don't. So can you do me a big favor and jupdate Car's sig over SBS rounds? you just have to mention when the rounds start and close and stuff like that and anyone who plays can tell you I'm sure. Thanks a lot man... ...I'm mad at this lack of internet, I feel rushed..."
