Despair is Fun. A Madoka RP(IC). Paradaisu.

It is a sunny day today none of that annoying rain or rain snow mix that was prevalent during early spring.  It has been awhile since any of you had met the creature that called itself Kyubey and made your wish. That was until today throughout the day to maybe to your surprise Kyubey appeared to each of you. It claimed to be just checking up on you and seeing how well you have been enjoying your wish. 

 

Throughout your talk with it, it seemed to hint at something big would be happening at some point and that you should go and fulfill your side of the contract. It even gave each of you some information. That there were three witches that it knows of within the city though it didn't actually know where they were at but it had faith that you would be able to find them if not someone else will.

 

After it was done talking to you it disappeared leaving each of you alone to search the whole city to find a witch or three. Kyubey didn't give you much information on how to find witches only to look for things that seemed out of place. A few things might pop into your minds. If you're in the habit of staying up late a special news bulletin popped into your mind. A body of a missing man was found at the old amusement park hanging from the ferries wheel. The other thing if you liked to walk through the park. There was a group of strange acting people in the park who gathered in the park. Free from any engagement or activity for the day you all are free to search the city for witches or who knows what.

 

((Feel free to have your character start anywhere in the city it's not late so it's not weird for children to be wandering around places since school had just got over not too long ago.))

After running into the little creature once more, Rosemary had thanked the little guy for the wish. She had been going to carry on her way to eat, and worry about hide and seek later. But as they passed the park a certain someone noticed some odd behavior in the park.

Rosemary felt her doll shift a little from where it dangled by its arm in her grip, A faint night imperceptible sign of movement as it focused in. A whisper spoken in odd tounges slipping into her mind. 

 

The girl gave a smile, and giggled. Adjusting course to enter the park, and pass by the pepole, After all.
If the prey her and dolly were to hunt were so kind as to be on the way to her lunch, they may as well play some. It was good to work up an appetite.

[Anime]

Rika was reading a book when Kyubey appeared. She listened to him talking about some kind of disaster that was going to happen soon, and as he reminded her of her end of the contract, she nodded and reassured him that she'll do her best. After hearing the news about the body of a missing man appearing in the old amusement park, and hanging from the ferris wheel, she went up and decided to grab a bite from a nearby donut shop. After she filled her belly, she entered the park only to see some people acting strange: some were paracticing what looked like a demonic ritual, others were just walking around aimlessly..

She sensed the presence of evil magic and so she had to be ready. As she transformed into her magical girl form, her crescent staff appeared and she held on to it, after all that is one of her best weapons.

Elizabeth

 

When Kyubey appeared before her, Elizabeth was simply sitting on one of the city’s rooftops, headphones placed atop her head as she listened to music. It was one of her personal favorite pastimes, just looking out over the city as a whole, made a lot easier now considering she could just transform and fly up to her spot, as long as no one saw her.

 

But, when Kyubey appeared out of the corner of her eye, Elizabeth pulled a hand out of her pocket, pulling her headphones off of her head as she listened to what he had to say. It had been rather silent since he gave her that wish, and it was time to settle her part of the “contract”. One he was finished giving her the information, Elizabeth nodded, standing up and leaving the headphones dangling on her neck, “Well, how hard can it be? Just find a Witch, make it dead. I can handle that” she stated, right before he disappeared, leaving her to search the city for these Witches.

 

It didn’t take too long for Elizabeth to leave her rooftop and make her way to the old amusement park, however. Standing at the entrance, she couldn’t help but feel a shiver pass through her. She had always not liked going to this place, on account of it being abandoned and rundown. The fact that someone had died her not to long ago only proved her right.

 

With a sigh, Elizabeth put a hand in her heavy coat’s pocket, walking into the amusement park. She had a feeling this wasn’t a coincidence. Dead person in this place, Kyubey appearing to tell her that there were Witches around… It was likely connected.

 

She just had to find the culprit.
 

[Yours Truly]

Meanwhile as Rosalyn was neither the type to stay up late to watch special news bulletins or hang out in abandoned amusement parks to chase after ghosts and murderrs who are hopefully no longer there (as she would find it to be a little too morbid for her tastes). She instead decided to hang out in the regular non abandoned or amusing park to search for the hopefully less dangerous group of suspicious people with the perfectly reasonable assumption (if flawed) that a witch that causes suspicious people to crowd around a park is much less likely to kill her than one that has already upped the stakes by straight up killing someone. Although the possibility that the reason why she has yet to hear about the suspicious people in the park killing anyone is that they never linked the crimes to the park or found the bodies briefly occured to her in the deepest, darkest recesses of her mind.

Valerie had been heading back home to do her homework when Kyubey had appeared in an alley to deliver his news. His? Maybe it was an it. Could even be a her... Valerie would need to ask it later. With a shrug she considered her options. There were two obvious locations for witches to be set up, but if there were other magic girls they'd be swarming them when they got the news. With a nod she decided to look over the tabloids for any local news. It worked in Men in Black after all. Valerie jogged off to the convenience store to look.

[Chevaleresse]

Elizabeth didn't have to walk long before encountering someone else. A boy, looking to be about her age, wearing dark sunglasses, jeans, and a shirt that was just a tad too yellow, currently seated atop the roof of what used to be some kind of concessions stand. "So, what do you think you're doing here?" he called out. His voice was high, a bit higher than you'd expect. "Don't you know it's dangerous around here? All sorts of weirdos running around." He wasn't sure what he'd expected to find here, really; he hadn't seen any witches at all, and this girl didn't look overly suspicious. . . though her height was almost unnatural. 

[GodofGamingRWBY]

Elizabeth

 

For the most part, Elizabeth didn’t really seem that surprised at the boy’s sudden appearance. She wasn’t really looking around much, more so just seeing if the Witch would show itself to her, if it was around. But, upon hearing his voice, Elizabeth merely turned to face him, “I could ask you the same thing. I’m just here to see if there’s anything interesting” she said with a shrug, “It’s not like I can’t handle myself around weirdos anyway” she added, putting her other hand in her coat pocket as she decided to actually look around the place. So far, there wasn’t much signs that there WAS a Witch around, but she couldn’t know until she looked closer. Maybe nearer to where that guy had been found…

 

Either way, she didn’t feel threatened at all by this boy.  He wasn’t really intimidating, and while he could be one of these “Weirdos”, she doubted he was really bad at all.

 

She doubted a Witch could look like a person anyways. 
 

[Chevaleresse]

Kage

 

"It's an abandoned amusement park. It's just a bunch of broken down rides and moldy buildings." He pushed himself off the ledge he was sitting on, sliding to the ground with an audible thump; the drop was a bit further than one might expect someone to attempt casually. "A guy got killed around here recently, do you really think that it's safe for you to wander around here alone?" His tone carried an implied threat as he took one step toward the stranger. Internally, though, he wanted to sigh. If only he were taller. He was trying to scare her off for her own good; it really was not safe for her to be around here while there was a monster supposedly lurking. 

[GM_3826]

After Rika transformed into a magical girl, Junko quickly pounced on her. She fell behind a bench, where she'd hopefully not be seen in that dress.

 

"What the hell are you doing? What if someone sees us? You shouldn't transform into a magical girl until you see a witch, what if someone else finds out..."

 

Junko seemed to be freaking out. She usually walked around the park to try and relax, although it hardly ever worked. She did not need this right now. She wanted it over with as soon as possible, or else.

[GodofGamingRWBY]

Elizabeth

 

Judging by the fact that Elizabeth's normally relaxed face hardened at the boy's threat, she managed to at least get to that point, "Yes, I do" she said simply, narrowing her eyes as she stared down at him. Normally, no, she wouldn't be around here, and wouldn't thing it was safe for her here. But that changed about a week ago, and she doubted some normal guy would be able to take her on now, especially if she transformed.

 

But, after a brief staredown, Elizabeth seemed to jump back to her casual mood, giving the boy a smile as she pulled her hand out of her pocket, "Look, if you want to keep me company and be my knight in shining armor, that's fine by me. Who knows, maybe there's something neat here that no one's found yet. It'll be a change from the normal scenery anyways" she said, before turning away from the boy and beginning to walk off, specifically towards the Ferris Wheel.

[Shamitako]

Yoshirou

 

Yoshirou had been waiting for this. He was nervous, anyone fighting strange monsters would be. That's why he'd practiced so much to learn his powers, though he still had no idea if that would pay off at all when facing a real threat. He supposed he'd find out soon enough, since as soon as Kyubey had told him that it was time, he'd known exactly where to go. 

 

Yoshirou approached the gates of the amusement park cautiously. He'd been keeping an eye out for suspicious activity ever since Kyubey first appeared to him, and the recent death here seemed particularly suspicious. It seemed he wasn't alone in thinking that, either, as there were two other people already here.

 

He wasn't sure if they were magical girls like him, the witch's prey, or some couple going thrill seeking. The fact that one was a boy pointed to one of the latter options, though considering his own case, Yoshirou couldn't rule the first one out just yet. They seemed to be arguing about something when the girl stormed off towards the ferris wheel. Yoshirou couldn't help but notice how tall she was, and her hair was nearly half as long. He felt a twinge of jealousy, since his own height was only a little more than that of an average girl. 

 

He shook his head to clear it, now wasn't the time to be insecure about his appearance, he'd have plenty of chance at that later. For now, he decided to go with the assumption that the two were a couple, and that the girl was a lot braver than the guy, she probably got a lot of confidence from being so tall. If that was the case, he needed to try to stop them before they became the second option. 

 

But he couldn't just yell out and ask the girl to stop, could he? If her boyfriend couldn't stop her, how was some steanger supposed to do anything? He didn't see any other option, so he jumped out of the shadows and shouted after her, "Hey, wait!" In what was altogether not a very commanding tone. 

[Chevaleresse]

The appearance of another person - who had apparently been sneaking about or something, as Kage had been watching for people approaching up until the appearance of this girl - prompted an actual facepalm from the boy. "Give me a break. . ." Nevermind that the girl seemed to be utterly focused on running headfirst into danger. "I'm not joking, it's seriously dangerous for you to be wandering around here! Get out before you get hurt." He turned to the newcomer as he walked after the girl. "That goes for you too! Seriously, what is with you people, there are. . . murderers running around and shit."

[GodofGamingRWBY]

Elizabeth

 

For the most part, the sudden shout of “Hey, wait” caused Elizabeth to sigh, stopping in her tracks and then turning around, giving the first boy a chance to finish what he was saying before speaking, “I’ve already got the fact that you’re not joking. Like I said before, I can take care of myself. And besides, have you even seen anyone else around here, besides us three?” she asked. She could see why he was trying to get her out at least, it WAS dangerous. but life was boring if you didn't get some excitement, and besides. There might be a Witch here. She had a job to do.

[StormLord]

Iva wasn't remotely happy to see Kyubey, first of all he appeared during her plan ride, where she was already nervous enough, and on top of that he had the audacity to wake her up after only just having fallen asleep.

Needless to say the conversation was fairly one sided as Iva was very angry and trying very hard not to think about the fact that she was several thousand feet above an unmeasurable abyss of water and darkness, or that the slightest engine malfunction might sends them spiraling to their deaths, or that someone on this very plan might try to high-jack it and blow them all up! (Iva had a bit of an overactive imagination, and not the good kind.)

 

A day or two later Iva made the excuse of staying at the apartment for a while while her parents went out and about.  Of course she used this time to sneak out and go witch-hunting(despite how terrified she was about being caught).  She remembered hearing something on the news about a body being found in the nearby old amusement park, and honestly she couldn't think of a scarier or more appropriate place for a witch to be hiding.

She eventually found it(a bit late having gotten lost due to nerves twice on the way) and squeezed her way through a small hole in the fence on the back side.  She slowly wandered around past all of the frightening dilapidated buildings and was just making it around the "House of Mirrors" when she heard shouting coming from the main strip, so despite every fiber of her being telling her to run and never look back she quietly stuck her head out and watched the group of people from a generous distance.

Rika,Rosemary,Rosalyn,Junko

 

For those of you at the park, you eventually find your way your way to were the rumors said. Once there you really don't find much of interest other than about 6 or so people tending a patch of asphodels. IF you get closer none of them to seem to pay any attention to you as they continue their work on the flower patch.

 

Valerie

 

The first thing you see when entering the store was a poster for a concert of the Idol Ai_Ai tonight in the actual entertainment district. Ai_Ai was a relatively new idol who popped up out of seemingly nowhere a few months back. AS you flipped through the tabloids aside from the usual stories of who is having an affair with who stories and what not two stories stand out. One is a report of a strange fog at night on the docks that after it had left tons of stuff is found vandalized. So of the dockworkers have even reported hearing laughter in the fog.  And the other story being reports of people disappearing in the business district only to have them reappear a few moments later acting like a different person the claim by some is that of the people being turned into lizard-people.

 

Elizabeth,Yoshirou,Kage

 

As the three of you are talking a voice Calls out to you "W-Who goes there?!" turning to where the voice was coming from you see a rather young looking cop who had his hand resting on their gun. "T-this is a crime scene you shouldn't be here. Leave the area now or we will escort you out." The cop said while acting a bit jumpy.

 

Iva

 

You see what looked like two guys and one really tall girl getting yelled at by a twitchy-looking police officer. you figured it might be a good idea to find a place and hide so you don't get caught if another one comes from somewhere.

[kj1225]

Valerie looks over the latter two stories a few times. They both seem like good choices to investigate. She buys the tabloid to keep as a reference and heads for the Buisness District to investigate since the dock's problem only seems to happen at night.

[Shamitako]

Yoshirou

 

Okay, so they weren't a couple. Yoshirou concluded that they weren't familiar enough for that to be a case. So it was magical girls, victims, or something he hadn't thought of. Since he hadn't thought of it, he decided it was useless to speculate on the third option. They could still be victims, but their attitudes just didn't feel right. Maybe it was just his inexperience, but Yoshirou was expecting a witch's victim to act enthralled or depressed. 

 

He didn't have a chance to try to figure it out further, as the cop showed up to interrupt them. That was a problem, searching for the witch wouldn't be easy if the cops were in the area. Yoshirou carefully put up his hands to show he wasn't a threat to the oddly jumpy cop and said, "Alright, I'm leaving." He backed away slowly until he was at the gate and then turned briskly to walk away. He would have to come back some other time.

 

He wasn't worried about the other two, regardless of their identities, the cop would force them to leave as well, so they were safe as long as they didn't do a yrhing stupid to get shot. If they were magical girls, he was sure he'd run into them again and could figure it out then. There was the possibility that the cop was the witch's victim, he certainly had the attitude for it, but Yoshirou saw a big difference in trying to convince some teenagers to leave a spooky amusement park and convincing an unusually jumpy cop to leave a murder scene. Only one of them increased Yoshirou's chance of an early grave.

[GodofGamingRWBY]

Elizabeth

 

The sudden appearance of the cop was met by Elizabeth heavily sighing, leaning back for a bit before straightening herself, turning around, throwing her free hand into the air, and giving the cop a brisk wave as she walked back towards the entrance, “Alright then. Good day, officer” she called out as she did so.

 

One Elizabeth had reached the entrance of the park, she had already pulled out her headphones again, starting up her playlist as she did so. Crime scene or not, that place reeked of Witch. She’d have to come by later, maybe at night so she could at least blend in with the dark. Not like getting around the entrance would be hard anyway, considering she could easily fly over any of the walls.

[Chevaleresse]

Kage rolled his eyes behind his sunglasses. At least the other two were leaving. He turned on his heel and walked toward the park entrance, irritation clearly displayed on his face. He'd have to search out a side entrance, maybe a gap in the fence or the like. The only way this could be going worse is if the cop had tried to escort him out immediately; that would have resulted in a call to his parents and a host of consequences he just didn't need right now.

[Shamitako]

Yoshirou

 

A little ways away from the amusement park, Yoshirou stopped and tried to wave down the tall girl. It wasn't the best outcome, but at least he could talk to her without the boy, since she was significantly more likely to be a magical girl. "So I didn't get a chance to ask," He would tell her once she removed her headphones, "but I went in there looking for a white, uh, cat, I don't suppose you've seen it?" If she was a magical girl as well, she'd know immediately what she meant, and if she wasn't they could part ways without another word.

[GodofGamingRWBY]

Elizabeth

 

Not that long after she had begun listening to music, Elizabeth saw one of the two boys waving to her, beckoning her to come over to him. This was met by Elizabeth simply pulling her headphones off of her ears, letting it dangle on her neck as she put her phone back into her pocket, turning to head over to him, “Yeah?” she asked as she approached, listening to his own question before pausing. White cat, slight pause before said cat… Probably a person who had been contracted by Kyubey.

 

“I haven’t seen any normal cats for a while now. I saw one twice this week, but it wasn’t all that normal, and wasn’t anywhere near here” she replied with a shrug, “What, you’ve been contracted to find it?” she asked, trying to give the boy a quick “If you know of Kyubey you’d know the answer to this” question.

[StormLord]

Iva slunk back behind the buildings, perhaps she'd be able to sneak around towards the Ferris Wheel past the cop while he was busy dealing with the others  She was still a bit worried about getting caught, but she was always worried now wasn't she?

She didn't have any clue who those thee older kids were, but she figured it wouldn't be too far fetched to use them as an excuse if she did get caught.  She could probably fake being lost given she'd already been actually lost twice today.

While she walked she kept an eye out for any more cops and any signs of the witch's labyrinth.

[Yours Truly]

Meanwhile, Rosalyn continued to play the good old 'friendly neighborhood teenager' act by walking up to the asphodil tenders and taking a picture of them and the results of their hard work and attention. She then let out a sligh humming sound before she curiously asked, "What are those called?," with as innocently ignorant of a tone that she could muster.

[Anime]

Rika was about to start running when a girl suddenly pushed her and she fell behind a bench. "Wh-what was that for?" said Rika in a surprised tone, and as she liseten to the girl talk, she understood why she was pushed. Rika transformed back into her normal form and said "you're probably right, its better if we dont take risks.. who are you anyway this isno place to hang around you know, unless you're certain that you want to fight off the witch"

As she walked she noticed a few people tending to a flower patch. She turned to the girl and said "Are you coming..or?"
