"Nice!" muttered Wraith staring at the screen. "I don't recognise them though. How are we gonna find them?"

"At any rate, we give the likenesses to the police." started Justin.

"Do we try anything ourselves?" muttered Wraith, almost a little hopefully...

============================================================

Vixie heard all the commotion behind her, and saw Roux's eyes open wide. The cat was about to say something, but the vixen raised a hand.

"I don't think I want to know." she muttered, making a face. She had had quite enough of the sights at the pie eating contest...how anyone could do something like that was just horrible.

"Come on, let's get out of here." she muttered, brginning to walk away from the chaos behind her without looking round...

Matilda's face was horribly pale, there was a cold sweat covering her body, and she was breathing heavily. She was shaking, her mouth moving rapidly, but no words coming out.

Then Ash's voice reached her ears. "Matilda...how?!"

Her eyes snapped back into focus, and she became aware of her surroundings. Looking at her arms, she saw that they had completely vanished into the magic, except the bones. She looked up into the worried faces of her comrades. "I..." She found it was hard to speak; there was a lot of pain in her body! "...ow...I didn't have enough magic. As a Necromancer, I was able to use my own life force as a substitute..."

Ash and Darmunio exchanged glances. Matilda's strength gave out, and she fell. Her comrades caught her, then eased her to the ground. "How do you feel?"

Matilda was staring at her skeletal right hand. "...awful. I can barely move. I just need...a little time to rest." She laughed, then coughed. "It's funny...they warned me about doing that, telling me that the price was tremendous..."

Matilda's eyes wavered shut.

This situation was troubling Michael a lot. The feelings of pain that coursed through the body of Matilda felt much more real than normal. Those feelings of fear he had been having...his body was warning him of danger that he was convinced wasn't there. How could an RP be dangerous? Maybe his body knew better...

IC: As their investigations continued, DB decided to pick up on the happenings of the rest of the fair. Flicking on her watch, DB was greeted by something....surpising. "Look at this!" she exclaimed and getting everyone elses attention. "The Food Court area just had a panic attack. Somebody got ...EATEN during the pie eating contest?!" She could hardly believe what she was reading herself. "It says that the security there has already begun to bring down the panic. But one other contestant in the contest has gone missing..." The others gave DB a knowing glance. This just may be there big break.

Wraith raised an eyebrow. "That's gotta be some kind of publicity stunt by a news team right? It couldn't really happen!"

"Happened on live TV!" replied DB, staring at the small screen wide-eyed. "Not censored too!" she continued, averting her eyes and making a face as the movement occured. Wraith, stood too far away to see the screen, blinked.

"Wonderful...!" he muttered sarcasticly.

"This is all very interesting, but I have to admit I don't get what it has to do with our current investigation." muttered Lokki a little bored.

Justin held up a hand. "Maybe it has more than we think." he said. His eyes were fixed on the screen on DB's watch, and he pointed a finger at it suddenly. "I recognise this face...!"

(OOC: Sorry, Pachamac, for making you do all the hard work. It turns out I'm not as familiar with the Legend of Zelda as I thought I was...I get everything you say, so don't worry about that, I just don't remember it until it's brought up. And, for some reason, I'm more nervous than normal about controlling other chars in this RP)

IC:

"Hey, she's coming around!"

That was Ash's voice. Matilda's eyes opened, and she glanced up at him. She had been moved to a bed in the Goron City; as luck would have it, that only bed that still existed. She slowly sat up. "I...feel a lot better. How long was I out?"

Ash shook his head, smiling when he saw she was feeling better. "Not long, maybe...fifteen minutes or so?" His face became shadowed with worry.

Flexing her arms, she was testing them to get used to the different feel. It was odd that she could still feel them, yet hot or cold or pain wouldn't bother her! Glancing around, she asked, "where's Darmunio?" Seeing his worries face, she added, "what's wrong?"

"Darmunio went to have a look around, make sure there are no more surprises waiting for us around here. And..."

(OOCC: I'll leave it there for you, as I can't think of anything else right now...

Also, sorry for bumping this if we wanted to let it die. Just thought we might all need a reminder, because this can still work!)

IC: Hermon and Ambika rushed from the scene at the Main Street Fair until they were right at the edge of the RP Guild. There, Hermon had to stop and take a breather. With the huge catch, the glutton, still inside his body, it took a grand effort to get far. Strangely enough he looked no bigger, like he hadn't swallowed a being nearly 5 times his size. Ambkia crossed her arms and huffed. "Why don't you just spit him out?!" "I figured you would have eaten him by now."

Hermon looked up at her "But you told me NOT to eat him! Make up your mind!" Ambika blanched. "Spit him out, he'll be unconsious for a while ....and make sure you do it where no one can see you! " Hermon thought about it. Where was a good place to hide this guy....there didn't seem to be any good place to hide a man so large. Hermon looked up and spotted something. A gigantic dark building evil and foreboding, it seemed to have an atmosphere of its own. A building dedicated to horror and all things creepy, kooky, mysterious and spooky....

"They're all together ooky, The Adams Family.......do do do..."

"Stop day dreaming about the Adams Family and HIDE HIM!!"

"YIKES!" Snapped from his trance, Hermon hopped inside the building which they both noticed was a new attraction, and wouldn't be open to the public until later. Hermon was an expert at finding ways into places meant to keep people out. After depositing the "body" he hopped back out. "Okay okay all done now lets go!" He felt 200 pounds lighter. Ambika nodded and they both traveled deeper into RP Guild..
