The adventurers, each in their home world, their home are getting ready for bed, wearing their favorite pajamas, or naked... As their sleep folds, each of them had a very special dream.
a ball of light (no, not an egg!) floats in front of them in a darkness void where nobody or nothing is around. The light slowly transform into their God or Patron, and a voice ring in their head, a female voice, unknown to them.
"You have being summon, dear adventurer. You are needed in another world. I cannot promise anything great, as greatness is created by yourself. The world you are going to is in danger!".
As much as they wish to speak, a lot of questions filled their mind, they open their mouth but no sound can come out. And slowly the vision fades....
Shinee woke up, and found himself in a dark strange cave. There is a silhouette of a big rock in front of him stuck into the wall but not very firmly, and light is coming from the other side. He look around, strangers whom he had never seen before are lying on the ground around him, also slowly waking up. Eeks! Some are naked.... He reaches for his weapon, then to find he have nothing on him, around him. He is only in his pajamas!
Danger! The first thing that comes into his mind! I must be prepared! he found a many others who also looked like him, horned humans with wings and tail. There is two other human, an one is naked "oh my god... what the hell... did he went to sleep naked?" A somehow half-elven looking female, except she is a bit darker tone, quickly rushes up and hide in the far corner of the cave, away from the stone silhouette.
The naked man woke up, "What the...." he exclaimed. With a chant, a glowing light appears at what is he usual position of.... "No, not the groin..." Shinee groan... The dark-colored half-elven woman look at the glowing "worm" in amuse, murtring to herself, a magic dust raise from her hand thatforms into a shap of another hand, that reaches out a grab hold of the glowing worm.
"Ouch! Hey! Grab your own..... erm... I mean, yeah you don't have, sorry. But thats painful you know". Naked man groan in pain as half-elven giggles. "Where the hell are we?" the human lady spokes, "Is that a door?". No one seems to answer, everybody is stuffing themselves in a corner away from the lighted silhouette big rock.
Shinee hears a familiar language coming from outside. "Goblins" he sighed... "And I have nothing on me. Hmm... what do I have in my mind today.... Oh hey! Where is hell is my spellbook! Shit, thats a gift from Master! He's gonna kill me...". "They are awake, they are awake!" Shinee hears a goblin shouting and it's voice going further and further. "Calling for help?" Shinee worries.
"People, I hear goblins outside" The human lady shouted, as she cast something up in the mid air. Everybody hang on even tighter. Naked man cover his family jewels and stood as far away from the rock as he could. For hours, nothing seems to happen.
"Are we going to stay here forever? Lets push this rock away and get out of here!" Someone shouted in the near dim darkness. Together, they push the rock out and as soon as t bulges, light shone into the cave.
Outside, there seems to be a tunnel leads further to the left. No one was there. The human lady looks out and saw goblins, seems to be running away crying for help. the group cautiously walks out to the tunnel and follow on. The tunnel seems to be well lighted with torches on the wall.
A tiefing girl starts to chant and suddenly a globe of darkness appears all around her, and the globe of darkness starts to float and lift off down towards the end of the tunnel. Naked man open his hand and lowered, what looks like fluffy fur ball, on the ground. The fluffy little rodent like creature scurries forward until it reaches the end of the tunnel, which opens to a big wide chamber of natural cavern. "I see a lof of goblins, people. We are surrounded!". As the group cautiously make way towards the opening, they heard very loud cheers and battle cries all around.
"Welcome to the games of Running Men!" A louder voice is heard from the big commotion of goblins, standing like spectators on the 2 cavern wall-cliff. On the left wall cliff, on the top tier, a man dress in funny purple robes seems to be addressing them. "Feel naked? Ha ha ha ha ha. You would find them at the very end of this path. Run, while you can!". He start chanting and swinging his hands around in a funny odd manners (just like Aaron Kwok in Para Para Sakura).
Before th group realized they are actually walking/running/flying along the path towards, what seems to be a very long path which ends at the cliff of the opposite end and a cave extends. on both side of the path, it seems to be a drop so deep that one is unable to make out how deep it is.
As the group run, a loud roar startle them coming from above, right in front of them. And what seems to be a group of goblin war cry sounded behind them. The group turn and saw a group of goblins, not less than 50, was charging towards them, from the tunnel they have emerge from. Suddenly, naked man chanted and swing his hand, pointing at a spot and a magical void appears. He then jump into the void and disappear. Before Half-elven can giggled "coward", she saw naked man appears again behind he purple-robe man on top of the cliff. "How the hell...." she exclaimed. Human lady shouted, "Let us run towards that cave!" The group started to chased towards the hole-in-the-wall. But as soon as they start moving, they realized a ball of fire appears from up above, coming towards them.
As they all prepared to take the force of the burn, the ball of fire crashes on them but seems to dissipate without any harm. Just as them echoes sigh of relief, they notice the goblins all around began to load the arrows and start shooting at them, as they approve the cave entrance.
On the other hand, naked man steps out of the void and appears behind the purple robe man. He turn around and in surprise. "Arh, welcome! You are unexpected!". Naked man points his finger at purple-robe and exclaimed, "Shutup, close your eyes and hands on the back!". Purple-robe seems to followed willingly and close his eyes in a sweet smiling manners.
As naked man, sees the purple-robe followed his spell command, he being chanting another spell that comes into his mind. Naked-man started to change his form into a T-Rex! Suddenly, purple robe seems to break out of a trance and looked at the terror before his eyes. The T-Rex opens t big jaws and attempt to gurp purple-robe! Without even a sound, purple-robe was half swallowed, legs kicking in the mouth of the T-Rex!
The group safely reaches the cave entrance while half-elven girl and dark globe flows in first. Human lady and a tiefling girl-warrior as stuck with a few arrows, which wounds seems to be not of a concern at the moment. Th group found their personal belongings in the caves and in relief, they quickly starts to don their armour and equipment in a haste, in case anything bad is gonna happen outside, and also the charging goblins!
As they moved out, ready to face what-ever-is-coming, the quietness of the cavern surprise them. All the goblins are gone, the lights are gone. What's left are just a dimly lighted cavern with a what-looks-like-a-T-Rex standing on the cliff top where purple-robes was once standing. What appears to be a camp firelight is emitting from the cave where they originally woke up at. Suspicious, they slowly cowers towards the light source.
A Tiefling girl appears out of the dark global as it dissipates. She flew up towards the T-Rex, thinking that it is with the purple-robe, and tries to attack it. The T-Rex trip and fell down the cliff, but landed on a lower tier platform, and transform back to naked man. "Oh its you!" Tiefling girl blushes, as the naked man stands up from the fall. "Come let me fly you back". Naked man hold on to Tiefling girl and she flew him back to the light-source cave, meeting the others.
The group approach the cave where they woke up, and saw an old man sitting at a camp fire, barbecuing what looks like a piece of red meat. "Oh hi, where did you guys come from?".
Naked man shouted "Hey aren't you the purple robed freak out there just now?" Puzzle that this old man seems to be spotting gray hair instead of black, and he is wearing white robes.
"I don't know what are you talking about. I am Wyatt." giggled the old man.
"Where are we?" Shinee asked.
"Where? We are in a cave i called home. This cave is near to Mylychee Lake if you are asking that."
"Mylychee Lake, what the hell is that..." Shinee is puzzled.
Half-elven put her legs over a broom she is holding and it started to float and hover up to the ceiling where a hole is visible, which wasn't originally there.
"You guys have a great time!" The old man exclaimed.
One by one, the group flew up the hole, the 2 human wth the help of Half-elven and the Tiefling manages to get up and out of the hole. And the group find themselves in a think jungle with heavy canopy on the top layer, which did not block their vision enough to know it is the night time.
"Oh well, I guess we all need to rest", Shinee says, as he swayed his hands, a translucent small hut appears out of no where. "Welcome to Shinee Hut of Heart!" as Shinee walks into what seems to be a door. The group follows and is delighted with food and water found inside the hut.
As they sit down for a sumptuous meal, they start to introduce themselves.
A tiefling girl giggles as she spoke, "I'm Seimei! I love tiny, cute and shiny things! (does a heart gesture too) Ooooh this is so cute! Teehee!" Seimei's familiar, Kuki, seems to give a sigh as it curls around her neck.
Shinee smile, "I’m Shinee. I lost most of my recent memories when I was transported to the volcano. But you remind me of an annoying party member who liked to charge around naked", looking at naked man.
Naked man looked at Shinee, "Fine you stupid Tiefling, you like this guy I know, always standing at the back! It's strange, a moment ago I was fighting this group of cultist with my fellow companions, and suddenly a portal was conjured by the leader. I think it was Calamari, was his name? Anyway, I jump into it, next thing I know, I'm here naked, I lost my cape, my rod, everything. Oh yea, My name is Reckon Justice." Shinee groans.
Human lady nods at Seimei. "I see... A pipe fox? Or is it an imp? I wonder..." She takes out a notepad and starts taking notes. "Hi all, I am Chaos Theory, you can call me CT."
Half-elven giggles and introduce herself, "I am May Eve. I am the sole survivor of an order once known as the Watchers. To avenge my fallen sisters, I am on a neverending quest to hunt and destroy all single eggs! Singletons only!"
Seimei looks at the broom "Oooh your stick flies by itself?? Let me try!!" and she jumps on broom. But with no skills, she ends up hanging upside down like a sloth...
A tiefling wearing a suit of armour, introduced "Hey all, I am Nishe. and hey! all the arrow wounds are gone! When I was talking to that crazy old man Wyatt, it was still there.", and she unwillingly show a sign of a heart, requested by Shinee as a payment for staying in the hut. A sign using the thumb and index fingers of both hand forming a shape of a heart.
"This all looks like a very elaborate dream!" Seimei laughed.
As everybody chatted away at the encounter they had prior to this little hut of rest, CT , holding a gem cries out "Hey I found this is my backpack. It does not belongs to me!" Justice eyes brighten up, as he was just about to say "It's mine", a light suddenky appears to glow out of the gem and a small vision of a beautiful young human lady appears on the gem.
"This is Princess Eeyer. We need help! Hey R2, stop it, I am trying to record a message! Ahem... As I had said just now, WE NEED YOU. Please come to us. We're...at...or...ro..drag.." and the visions shimmer and goes dead. As you are watching the vanishing light, the gem crumple to dust...
Musics play, credit roll...
"In the middle of the night-ai-ai,
I go walking in my sleep.
From the mountains of faith,
To a river so deep-ep-ep.
I must be looking for something,
Something sacred I lost.
But the river is wide
And it's too hard to cross-os-os-o
In the middle of the night."
