@freedomwriter76 Yes! Honestly, I’m going to do it now. Jareth’s probably going to wander alone for a little while before he finds the group. Also he has his pet with him–a little creature of my brother’s creation called Crowshadow, or Crow for short cause he’s black.
@elishavet-pidyon @koshka @godlyfantasy12 Adding a new character who will eventually encounter this group, so just a heads up. He’s probably….. five or six? Seven, maybe?Jareth
Jareth woke up on a cold stone floor. Crow squeaked in his ear and darted off to find a crevice to spy from.
Where was he?
He wanted to call for his parents.
But who knew what lived here?
Icebreakers?
Deathhunters?
Other scary things that’d be alerted if he yelled?
He stood up. The room reminded him of the Sanctuary, the place his mother had told him about.
Well, if it was the Sanctuary, it would be safe….right?
He stepped out carefully, Crow tangling around his legs, looking around for anyone else.
(I kinda want someone else’s charrie to discover him by accident…..)
Where'd I get ya this time? The liver? The kidney? I'm runnin' outta places to put holes in ya.
August 23, 2022 at 1:57 pm #115681@freedomwriter76 *bows low* Thank you! XD XD XD
We do that because who cares what anyone else thinks? THEY ARE TOO REAL!!!
Oooh…I read that! Man…Verity needs to come over there and pull Riker into a hug and glare at Franz before taking some more…ummm….drastic measures….
Verity’s begging me to go over to help Riker but I told here Jayden will need her b/c of Sorren….
Yes it is! It describes me RIGHT NOW!!!
*breaks down seeing you break down*
“YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND!! RIKER’S MOM IS DEAD AND JAYDEN’S STORY IS TOO SAD FOR WORDS!!!”
Oh wait….I think someone just called a store manager…we should probably move onto another store….

@queen_of_alvastia. Oh noooooooo…. 😫😬 (sounds like a great villain tho. 😂) Alrighty, here we go!
Jayden
It wasn’t Bataan.
Wasn’t back home in the small, white, picture-perfect farmhouse in Alabama.
Wasn’t even the army base Jayden had trained at, being berated for choosing to heal rather than fight. Those same men thanked him on the field of battle.
He leaned against Asher, his older brother, trying to calm his mind.
He had always hated the dark.
It reminded him of too many things.
Asher wrapped an arm around him. Held him close.
Michael slowly stood from where he had been laying on the cold, damp floor.
Jayden and Asher had already stood.
“What is this place?” Asher asked quietly.
“I don’t know…it looks like a castle.”
“You’re right, Jayden. It does…” Asher murmured, glancing around the room. “But how did we get here? Where are we exactly?”
Jayden shrugged. Pulled his helmet down lower, still decorated with the internationally known red cross, labeling him as a Medic. He wished it actually saved more Medics from rifle and machine-gun fire.
He glanced around the room.
Medieval type lighting, weaponry, and armory. Someone had paid attention in History class.
“Well, we can’t stand here a’waitin’. Time is a tickin’, y’all.”
Jayden couldn’t help but laugh at Michael’s attempt at an Alabama accent.
He knew his brother just rolled his eyes, but a smile still flickered across Asher’s face. “Alright, Southern boy, what do you suggest?”
Michael chuckled.
Jayden stopped. He heard voices. Masculine.
One softer than the other, but unmistakably masculine.
Asher stopped as well, and Michael grabbed the gun off his back.
“Hear that?” Michael asked.
Jayden nodded.
Asher put his arm in front of him. “It’s right outside. Me and Michael will take the front. Jayden, stay behind.”
Jayden would have protested, would have said Asher shouldn’t, couldn’t, boss him around. But Jayden didn’t have any weapons.
He was a medic, after all.
So he consented and got behind them both.
Asher pulled out his Navy-issued pistol. “Stay quiet, stay alert, and stay together.” Asher slowly, quietly, nudged the door open. “Follow me.”

@queen_of_alvastia. You’re welcome! 😀
EXACTLY!!! SO REAL TO US!
Oof, Verity should. But…I think Jayden will need her more. Riker’s got the others, he’s got his daughter, he’ll be good, you’ll see. 😉
Oh, oops. We better light out of here. XD XD XD

Michael’s horrid attempt to be Southern. XD XD XD
August 23, 2022 at 2:13 pm #115685@freedomwriter76 JAYDEN!! I’M CRYING ALREADY!!
Payton
Payton watched as a door on the side of the corridor opened and three men stepped forward, they were dressed very strangely. And Payton reacted the same way he had with Leon. His dagger flashed forward. One of the men pointed a metal barrel-shaped thing at him.
Did he actually think that thing was dangerous? Well, Payton had a dagger so he wasn’t scared.
Or so he told himself.
“Explain yourself at once or this dagger lands at your heart! I do know how to throw it in case you’re wondering.”
(ASIDE: I can see Payton causing total havoc if he ever got a gun in his hands….)
He narrowed his eyes.
“And you can start talking. NOW.”

@queen_of_alvastia. IKR!? *sobs*
Asher
“And you can start talking. NOW.”
One of the two men had a dagger pointed at the three of them.
Asher kept his pistol level.
He wasn’t going to let anyone stop him.
The other man’s brown eyes stared at them for a few moments, before he blinked.
Asher noticed the dagger in his hands as well.
He heard footsteps and noticed Jayden had come closer.
He put his arm in the way.
He wouldn’t let his brother get hurt.
Not if he could help it.
“I’m Captain Asher Graham Carter of the US Navy. This is First Class Private Michael Adam O’Regan of the US Marines, and behind me, here,” Asher motioned to his brother. Sent up a silent prayer when he saw how white Jayden’s face was, “is my brother, Lieutenant Jayden Caleb Carter, my younger brother and a medic for the US Marines.”
He reached over and squeezed Jayden’s arm.
His brother blinked, and some color returned to his face.
But in Jayden’s blue eyes, Asher still saw fear.
Oh Lord, help him. Help us.
“We’re not going to hurt you. Who are y’all?” Asher asked, slightly lowering his pistol.
He needed to make sure the two men would trust them.
Because Asher needed to get Jayden out of this place.

@queen_of_alvastia. I know. It’s great. XD XD XD Ooh, can’t wait for Verity!!! 😀 😀 😀
August 23, 2022 at 2:27 pm #115690@koshka @elishavet-pidyon @keilah-h @freedomwriter76
Still not sure what to RP at this point isn’t time…
someone wanna get us moving to the sleeping quarters? Maybe one of the guys can carry Franz?
OH maybe Keilah’s new character is at the sleeping area??? In that tower or whatever and that’s where we find him? Just spitting out ideas lol…
Also this is really making me wish I could add in Grimm and Paxton. (One day…one day…)
which…there are a lot of RP charries rn….
ibe got a list in notes but I can’t even keep up
#IfMarcelDiesIRiot
#ProtectMarcel
#ProtectSebAugust 23, 2022 at 2:35 pm #115691OOH I HAVE AN IDEA!!
I know it’s a bit…rough to do this probably…but @freedomwriter76 and @queen-of-alvastia is there anyway y’all could make a list of ALL your RP charries, including their personalities and looks, etc, and put them in one post/list so I can copy and paste them and remake my notes into something more cohesive (so I can make better sense for myself?)
then maybe I can post a master list for everyone!

#ProtectSebAugust 23, 2022 at 2:36 pm #115692@freedomwriter76 Jayden!! I’m so sorry for what Payton says!! NOT MY FAULT!!!
Payton
Payton’s face started going blank as the man said his name. Wow. That was quite a mouthful.
He cleared his throat.
“Captain Asher Graham Carter of the US Navy,”
Hey I got it right!
“My name is Payton. I didn’t mean to threaten you like that. But alone in the middle of a dark, creepy old ruin like this,” he shrugged, “Well, you never know. Oh and that’s Leon.” He gestured to the man beside him just as running footsteps pounded down the hall.
Verity & Trevyn
Verity slid to a halt in the hallway, staring at all the men. Her red hair swished behind her, still in motion from her breathless race. Behind her a boy walked up slower. He froze at the sight of so many people.
He counted them mentally.
Five complete and total strangers.
He tugged at Verity’s sleeve.
“Verity, let’s go another way,” he muttered hoping to be inconspicuous. Unfortunately Verity and inconspicuous were two words that never shared a sentence – or a room. She wasn’t going to have any of it.
“But, Trevyn, WHY ON EARTH!?! We just got here! You don’t have to be shy. They’re not going to hurt us. And if they do, they’ll have me to reckon with.”
She flashed a smile at the room, and pulled Trevyn up next to her.
“I’m Verity. This is Trevyn. He’s shy, but harmless.”
Red began creeping up Trevyn’s face. He stared at the floor wishing it would swallow him up.
And leave Verity in a roomful of strangers by herself?
Never.
Although he had a pretty good idea she could take care of herself if nessecary.
