The Chosen{Open RP}

[Knell]

Zenjuro stood with his hands in his pockets, the wind blowing through his hair as he overlooked the human village. He wore his basic labcoat with a black undershirt, black pants and brown combat boots. His black hair was wild and unruly as he sighed. "I sense a change coming." Between fighting the devil, a mad Satori, one would think his life couldn't get any weirder, but it was about to. A portal opened in front of him at that moment, in front of the portal floated the words. "If you have courage, step forward."

Little did Zenjuro know, that same portal would appear in front of only two others in all of Gensokyo. Not being one to turn down adventure, he leaped into the portal only to bed let to a strange courtyard.


A sign floated above him. "You have passed step 1, now see if you can pass the trial. In order to come here, you must let go of all you hold dear in the other realm."


An image of Kokoro appeared, and she was being held against her will.

"You have two choices, kill the demon and she dies, or surrender to save her and you will fail. The price of failure is death."

"How about..." Zenjuro walked forward and cut down the demon before it could touch the hologram of Kokoro. "I choose my own destiny?" He said with a smirk as he threw his knife at the monitor and ended up getting transported to what seemed like a waiting room.

"You have made it this far, here you will wait for the others. Then I shall proceed to tell you what to do."

[kokoroandherkokoro]

Flop.

That's all Kokoro could do: Flop and wiggle and squirm. Seeing how she was tied up completely, she was as useful as a broken tool or something along the lines of that. At first she was in a dark place tied against her will, a demon about to kill her if it wasn't for Zenjuro saving her and now she's in a waiting room.

She continued to flop and wiggle across the floor as light dinner music filled the room. She hoped to find someone that could eventually free her from these ropes!

[Metroid Life]

"Let me help you with those." 

Shoki pulled out a sword she had been carrying in case of youkai attacks and cut the girl free. She didn't know her or the demon-killing boy, nor exactly what was going on, except that it seemed important, that she didn't have much to go back to, and that she really wanted to find out what this was leading up to.

"My name is Shoki. Who are you? Do you know why we're here?"

[kokoroandherkokoro]

Kokoro got up and stretched, her Anger, Pathos, and Joy masks now floating around her. "I do not have any idea why we are here but it is for a reason and my name is Kokoro, Hata no Kokoro." She replied calmly. She decided to walk around the waiting room,no wait, skate across the floor. It was rather easy to do as it is but the floor made it easier. "Maybe I'll find Zenjuro around here. I mean I did see him when the demon was after me" She thought out loud as she shuffled for her fans in her shirt.

[Metroid Life]

Shoki floated after Kokoro.

"Well it makes sense that he's around here somewhere, I guess..."

She briefly wondered what would happen if she put on one of Kokoro's masks, but quickly decided that would be stupid. From what she'd heard the masks were how she expressed herself; for all she knew taking one would remove the emotion, or the mask would possess her, or something like that. She turned her attention to their surroundings, a hall made of blank metal, but there was something ominous about it, as though something... other was watching them. She floated a little closer to Kokoro, hoping that if something attacked them they would be able to fight it off.

[Knell]

"Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. SHIT! SHIT! SHIT! SHIT!" Suddenly the wall exploded as Zenjuro leaped inwards, sliding across the floor like a boss. "Run! Run!!!!" He shouted to the others as he sprinted down a hallway that suddenly opened up. "I made it angry!" He yelled as an angry looking demon burst out of the hole in the wall. He kicked it into high gear as it was clear the monster was after HIM and not anyone else. "All I did was say you'd be good for a dog show, lay off it!"

[kokoroandherkokoro]

Kokoro abruptly stopped skating and turned to the commotion to see Zenjuro crashing through the wall, a demon after him.

"....Eh?"

Her Raiden came onto her face. "EHHHHH?!"

She sprinted down the hallway, catching up to Zenjuro and the demon. "Zenjuro! WHAT THE LIVING SHIT?!" She didn't cared if her emotions were going back to their wild-switching at the moment since demons and all. "First I get tied up and then you save me and then we're here! What is even going on?!" She then stopped, her Hannya mask on. "And you demon! JUST SIT THE FUCK DOWN ALREADY LIKE A GOOD DOG!" She then slammed her fist into it's face, causing it to fly into the nearest wall.

[Metroid Life]

Shoki burst out laughing as the demon slammed into the wall. She just couldn't help it, it all seemed so ridiculous. "But still," she thought, calming down, "something strange is going on here... I wonder if this demon can tell us anything? It's obviously not a threat now." She walked over to the demon and poked it. 

"Hey, demon! Can you talk? What's going on? Why are we here?"

[Knell]

The demon didn't make any noise, but Zenjuro decided to speak up. "Portal opened, I entered it, then poof, here I was. Now, what we have to do is figure out exactly how to progress from here." He dusted off his white lab coat. "I suggest by retracing the steps of the demon, figuring out it's place of origin, investigating that area will reveal the clue to escape this place." He walked back and out through the wall from where he came. "Naturally, this is a rather peculiar place, it is obvious that someone is watching us." He went through touching all the walls, looking for secret buttons. "There doesn't seem to be any sort of camera, so it's most likely that they're spying on us with magic." He stopped for a moment and crossed his arms. "They most likely depend on us going insane in here and attacking eachother, or getting killed by that demon from earlier. This is a very sloppily executed plan, it has many flaws, and through those flaws, I shall grasp the note of truth!" He walked forward to the open room where he had first arrived, looking for clues that the demon might have left behind. "I won't rest until I've investigated every suspicious nook and cranny." He knelt down on his right knee and began examining everything.

"Interesting..." He picked up a letter. "It seems whoever invited us here, planted a note for us."


It read:


Dear players, I'm so very glad you could make it. You've been chosen for a very special game. If you manage to find your way out without going insane and killing each other or getting killed by other things, you win! Be careful though, you'll have to fend for yourselves and find your own food. It's going to be so joyous!

-

Signed, The Game Master.

Zenjuro finished reading it and placed the note in a safe place, while mentally storing all that important information. He stood up and crossed his arms again. "So, my hunch was right. Now the question is, how exactly do we progress from here?" He walked back down to the new hallway that appeared and began observing it. "It seems to be a dead end and I can't find any special buttons...hmm?" His attention was drawn to the demon. He walked over to it and reached inside it's hand, in it was a key.

Key was added to Organizer.

"It seems to be a silver key...but to what?" He looked at it for a long while. "Not sure, but it'll probably come in handy later."

Organizer Contents:

Note{A note written by a so-called Game Master}
Silver Key{A peculiar key found on the demon that attacked me}


Profiles:


Hata No Kokoro{A close friend that's helped me on many cases, she appears to have something to do with this as well. What does this Game Master want with us?}
Shoki{A mysterious stranger who also happened to end up here, what's her story?}
Demon{Some kind of monster that attacked me on sight. Is there more to this?}

[Metroid Life]

"You certainly talk to yourself a lot, don't you?" Shoki chuckled, trying to lighten the mood. It didn't work, least of all for himself. The idea that someone could lead her and these two into this place, that all this was just some twisted game for them, made her blood boil. She gripped her sword tightly, envisioning what she would do when she found the person responsible... but thinking about it wouldn't make it happen. She hurried to keep up with the other two. "Do you two know anything about all this? Any idea who might be behind it?

[kokoroandherkokoro]

(I thought this would fit because of reasons, obvious reasons */shot omfg what if it turned into Dangan Ronpa. What if )


"So someone is watching us and the goal of taking all of us here is either have us kill each other through insanity or be killed by the obstacles here? Like a game?!" She bit her thumbnail, Hannya mask still on. "Whoever is causing this is truly despicable! No wait....THEY'RE A PIECE OF SHIT!" She then crossed her arms together and stuck her tongue, laughing. "DID YOU EVER JUST WANT TO STICK A WEAPON INSIDE OF A PERSON FOR BEING A DUMBASS BECAUSE I DO!"

She then calmed down, her usual Joy mask on her face. "But the most logical thing to do now would be to first find any other people in this place, make sure none of us go insane and kill each other, and to find the person who sent us here and beat them up. Is that a clear plan?"

[Knell]

-A mysterious office-

A man sat at a desk, a steaming cup of coffee in his hand. "So the games have begun..." He stood up before throwing a tan jacket on. "Now let us see if they have what it takes...to make it through the obstacles. They are the only three here...well..except for one other..."

-Another corridor-

"Tch...where exactly did that Keisuke send me?" Blade said as he leaned against a wall. "My powers don't work here, I'm brought down to a normal level...not that it's much of a handicap for me, but seriously, what the hell?" He held up the machete that he'd been given. "I guess I'll just go explorin' cuttin' down who ever gets in my way." He silently ran through the halls, not making a noise at all.

-Main Hallway-

Zenjuro sighed. "That would be the plan, we're gonna have to be careful. We don't know when another demon is gonna jump out at us, or worse." He sat down against a wall. "We have to gather our thoughts before proceeding though."

[Metroid Life]

"Yes, we need to think this through... first of all, is there anyway to get help? No reason to go through this alone if we don't have to. I have this communicator my friend Rika gave me..." She turned it on, and thankfully the transmission worked. "Rika, can you here me?"

    "Loud and clear, Shoks."

"I'm trapped in some kind of corridor, possibly not in Gensokyo."

    "I see... I'll see if I can track you down, but you'll have to survive till then."

"Got it." The communicator turned off. "Well, there's help on the way, maybe... now, what else is there? Whoever's doing this clearly wanted us to get that key, so it must lead into a trap, right?"

[kokoroandherkokoro]

Kokoro cocked her head to the side. "A trap? It could be a trap or maybe a way to the next hallway." She then turned her fans into her Naginata and placed it into the ground and sat on the pole. "But Zenjuro's right, we have to collect all of our thoughts first before continuing and we must calm each other down when needed." She then eyed her masks that were still floating around. She didn't want to go berserk from a lack of emotion and was keeping a close eye on them.
