Real Terror! ((Still acccepting RPers. Scary RP Rated T)) ANOUNCEMENT!

"Don't worry, charlie, I'll be your best friend for a little while." Lily joked with her friend.

"I understand, Hanyer, but you are definitely not useless. But if you feel your defenseless, then here." She pulled out what looked like a handgun from her bag.
"It's a bibi gun, won't kill, but it definitely helps." She loaded some of the plastic green pellets into the chamber and put it on the table.
"It's best if you go to your house rather than stay here." She said, her eyes straying to the ceiling where the footsteps had been coming from.

Hanyer took the bibi gun and thanked Lily. He really liked her. She seemed like a good female role model for Charlie too.

"Thanks. So you ready to go Mike?"

Charlie smiled at Lily and nodded. She hugged her feeling better. This was turning out to be strange, but she wasn't alone.

"Thanks Lily."

"No problem. Well, let's get going, lead the way, Nicholas." She said, standing next to Charlie.
"We'd better hurry, the book said there's only a few hours left."

(What do we do about the ghost?)

((We leave it an unsolved mystery that can either be returned to later or be left alone.))

Michael watched his friends create a plan before him, rather shocked to see this happening. A light smile came to his face after he had processed what Nick had said. He looked down at his shoes feeling a bit like a wanted toy when he heard Hanyer and Lily discussing who should stay with Michael. But as the conversation ended and it was decided that Hanyer would be Michael's partner the boy looked up at his friends and gave them a weak smile.

"Thank you....for- well yeah." He stated awkwardly while trying to stand still. "He looked up at the ceiling and still heard a few footsteps, but now it sounded like someone was pacing around a room. Thomas, Ceshie, Taryn! Time to go for now!" He shouted before looking down at Lily.

"If you can't get the stone or it seems impossible then please just come back....before..well you know."


(I know Alan was there, but even when Michael's close to death and there's an insane ghost in the house he still enjoys tring to mess with Alan.)

Lily kissed him on the cheek.
"We're going to get the stone, I promise!" She told him. "Friends don't let friends die."

Hanyer felt a little jealous when Lily kissed Michael on the cheek. He thought they would be a good couple and felt even worse. Charlie hugged her friend.

"See you later, ok?"

"Ok," he replied, ruffling her hair.

Thomas nodded and turned to Taryn and Ceshie, having listened to the entire conversation, "Ready to go?"

Lily hugged hanyer as well. A friendly hug.
"Good luck, take care." She said, waving to tem as she turned to Charlie.
"Let's go!"

Charlie nodded and followed Lily. Cooya flew around her owner's head and looked back at the two boys, like it was saying "See you later."

Hanyer sighed as he watched them go and looked at Michael, sort of embarrassed to be with him alone. 'We should head to my house."

Michael watched as everyone left before looking back at Hanyer. "Yeah you're right, it probably isn't safe here." He replied before glancing around to see that the closet door was still....moving. "Let us leave right now then." Michael said as though he were just anzious and nothing more.

Hanyer nodded and they began to head towards Hanyer's house. It was silent for some time and then Hanyer blurted out, "So do you like Lily?"

((ah sorry! i've been away for awhile.))

Alan shut his book and started to walk out. "Well this will be fun!" He said. "And I mean that with the most respect of your life which hangs in the balance of this mission." he said to Michael and ran out. "Hey! wait up.!" he yelled and ran up next to Nick. "So, where are we off to capitan?" he said.

Michael had been thinking about all the weird stuff that had happened so far when Hanyer asked a rather personal question. "What? O-of course I do, you've been in my mind haven't you?" He asked as though Hanyer had accused him of doing something wrong.

The truth is Michael had taken a glance at Hanyer's feelings while they had been mentally connected. Of course he hadn't read any of his thought, but he had still sensed a few of the emotions his friend had felt. And the truth was that if Hanyer had informed him of his feelings forty-eight hours ago Michael wouldn't have rejected him.

"I like all of you just fine. Thomas keeps me entertained with his foolish and upfront nature. Ceshie keeps me entertained and keep things lively with her actions and banter, plus she's always reliable. Charlie brings a youthful optimism to the group that makes me happy. Taryn makes everyone stay wise and honest." Michael explained as he tried to make things stay impersonal while still discussing this emotional subject.

"And You and Lily make me feel....safe. Like I have someone to trust, someone to talk to who will be there and just accept me for being me even though I'm a selfish twit." He answered as a small came to his face, the impersonal attitude disappearing.

Hanyer hadn't read any of Michael's feeling. He was going off how he and Lily acted with eachother. But what Michael told him caught the boy off gaurd. He wasn't talking about friend kind of liking, but hearing Michael tell him all that, it made Hanyer rethink. Maybe Lily just liked Michael and Michael was just acting like a friend.

"I make you feel safe," Hanyer said unsure. He felt himself blush a little. It was kind of awkward and kind of nice. "I didn't know you felt that way about me."

Hanyer frowned. He had phrased that last sentence wrong. But he waited to Michael to answer. Maybe he just thought it sounded wrong.

Michael paused for a second before continuing to walk as he tried to act carefully. "Well I do ok? I'm usually just.....quiet about things like that." He informed Hanyer before nervously rubbing his own shoulder. "Just...don't forget that I cared about you after I'm gone, k?" Michael asked as he carefully walked the fine line of being honest with Hanyer and keeping him happy while not betraying Lily's trust.

"Nick, hurry up, we've gotta find this thing.fast." She said urgently, she wouldn't be able to handle losing a friend who she also really liked. "How far away is this thing anyway?"

"Not too far if you would call Europe far." said Nick absentmindedly. Then he took a small token out of his backpack. "But we can get to him with this. Actually I got this from him. He due to the knowledge of the book he has a lot of power amassed over time. We can get to him though, don't worry." Nick then flipped the coin towards Lily, one side had the picture of a grizzled old man, on it, and on the other the same design as on the front of the books. "Hold that till we get to the school." he told her. He then drew out of his own book, what seemed to be what he was using as a book mark. There was a piece of paper, that looked like an amusement park map, but instead written at the top was "Walter's Wonderland: Map of entrances, New York State." It was a map of the state of New York. "Amity." he said, and the map zoomed in to Amity New York, and pointed out a list of locations. The closest one being their school. "I'll meet you there. Break in through the back door. It doesn't say where in the building it is. His secretary had to push him to even print out building locations, his original idea was to point out the entrances on earth." he explained. "Once you've found it, call me if I'm not there, and don't go inside without me." he told them. "I'll try not to be too long." he promised. "Tell Ceshie to follow me, just in case you do go in, which I don't doubt you will. They don't take kindly to those without magical ties there." he said, and started to head out of the Amity house.

((Sorry I haven't been on. I had a trip to go on last weekend and I'm going to prison camp for three weeks starting Sunday with very limited internet access, so I won't be posting much. ))

Taryn looked at Thomas, then Ceshie and nodded, "Yup. Meet you guys down there." She wasn't sure what was happening downstairs, but she assumed it was urgent. She hopped onto the banister, sitting side-saddle and slid down to the first floor, landing silently with her feet on the floor. She looked at Lily, "What's going on?"

(Poor you.)
Thomas nodded and followed Taryn down the stairs. He spoke, "I agree. What's more important than facing a murderous ghost?"

"Umm, who is the 'he' Nick was reffering to and what exactly are we looking for in the back of the school, I though the stone was in Europe." Lily said confusedly

Taryn arched an eyebrow, as she tried to decipher what Lily has just told them. After a moment, she thought she understood what was going on, though it might have been a stretch. "That's, er... confusing."

"Tell me about it," Thomas said with a frown, "What stone are we looking for and why do we need it?"

Charlie spoke this time, "We're looking for the Philosopher stone. It's the only way for Michael to remain alive. He has become...this book. And it's killing him. But if Michael gets the Philosopher stone, he'll be able to keep on living."

Charlie looked at Lily, hoping she explained it well.
