[So far: Lizzy, Mac, Petro, Sepheran, Mandy, Arachne, Alwine
Others feel free to join, even randomly. |D Be warned that I post like a monster because I have nothing better to do, and I tend to pester people after tagging. Yes, ILU2.]

While it was difficult to leave an unconscious Tess and a frightened Amrita behind, she had to; no use staying back with everyone when there might be clues along the coast... What that odd hooded reaper said back then; it didn't make sense. Where were all the staff? The ToTers? She shivered; even with the jacket, it was still cold from behind out at sea; at least there was the area below deck to hide from the wind and fog on the boat...

"I think there was someone back there," She couldn't help pointing out as they left the tent, raising an eye brow at Mac's sudden change in tone, before looking at Petro to make sure he was with them, "Were you actually... Nervous?" Still, he was a source of heat - for now - and she found herself clinging onto his arm despite it being wet... And cold.

"You really should take that off."

Sepheran had followed Lizzy's small group as they left to explore. He had regretted having to leave Tess behind but the area where they were seemed safe. He didn't think they would run into any problems...if anything was out there he bet the students leaving to explore would be the ones to run into things.

The baslisk quickly fell into pace beside Petro, glad to have at least a few familiar faces around him right now. He had worried earlier when he couldn't find where Myr had gone, perhaps he would come upon the other boil as they explored.

As they left Sepheran turned his head in the general direction of the group not having to look forward since he was guided by Liannan, the white snake, on his shoulder. "Shouldn't we take inventory of everything we have first?" Sepheran questioned. After all it would be best if they all knew what they had right? That's what Sepheran thought anyway.

Out of the swirling mist appeared a small slowly moving figure. It might have looked frightening if it wasn't for the fact it was clearly quietly sneezing every few seconds, the voice declaring it a girl.

Wearing slightly too large pajamas and sodden to the bone Mandy probably posed a pathetically sad figure, particularly with the wide eyed and hopeful look on her face.

Which was quickly crushed when she looked around the group to find no Alwine. The boil didn't have her....?

Turning sad eyes on him, she let out a small sad question, "Wheres my Alwine?"

Anyone who had heard of the frightening ghoul who had threaten Mac would not associate her with this figure. Mandy was too wet, cold and lost to be scary. For now.

'Elizabeth?'

The name came out of the fog, as the ghoul trudged about. She was feeling brittle, tired from all that had happened, and alone, upset that no one seemed to be looking for her. Her eyes had slipped over the re-uniting couples and friends, and it was hard to remind herself that her being alone had been of her own choosing to protect herself..

Petro kept in step with Sepheran, following after Lizzy and Mac, keeping an eye out for anything suspicious. There was just so. Much. Fog. The lack of visibility had him on edge. Without turning to the basilisk, Petro responded, "'S fine with me if we keep moving. Don't want to stay put too long." Lingering memories of Christmas Town had his guard up.

He was about to tell the group what he had with him when figures appeared from the mist. Instincts had Tro moving to shield the blind boil and brandishing his mace. "Who's there?" he demanded, brown eyes narrowed dangerously. These same brown eyes blinked to find it was two ghouls. Students judging by the look of things. "Y' two okay?" he asked, lowering his mace but still wary.

What if they were followed by something hostile? Like drunk trees or crazy reindeers.

"That's true..." Lizzy nodded at Sepheran, still clinging onto Mac's arm; having been in a hurry to leave and scout around, she had forgotten to check the contents of the bag... Being cold didn't help her think straight either. After all, the bags were left there for them to take, so it might contain clues too. Letting go of the (wet) Reaper, she moved the bag around so that it was being carried on her front instead of her back, rummaging through it as she walked.

"Lets see... I have... A torchlight and a... Note?" She pulled the note out, frowning as she read it, "It says something about a mysterious location or something..."

Before she could say anymore, the sound of sneezing caused her to tense up, the old wooden bat in her hand flying up in a defensive pose; like Petro, her Christmas experiences had sort of caused her to be on edge, instincts sharp despite feeling cold. When it was only another student - one that seem to know Mac - she heaved a sigh of relief, lowering her bat. Stuffing the note and bat into the bag, she plopped it on the ground before wriggling out of her jacket, walking over to the miserable looking ghoul and placing it over her shoulders - hey, she was sneezing! That means she needed it more, right?

"Please, keep yourself warm..." She frowned; as with Mac and the towel, her tone suggested she wouldn't take no as an answer anyway.

Leaving Mac to deal with the ghoul, her attention soon turned to another figure - Arachne. Eyes widening, she hurried over to the Spiderkin, giving her a hug; it wasn't comfortable, seeing how she was cold and her friend was wet, but it was a reassuring gesture anyway. Pulling away, her frown deepened, "Its good to see you in one piece, but... Remind me to check if I have anymore towels in my luggage when we return."

Arachne returned the hug, stifling a noise that could be a distressed one, but she didn't get distressed right? Only she'd not been through anything anywhere near this before, the attack near Breck's shed had been nothing compared to what had gone on so far during this trip.

'I'm glad to see you too. It's fine, this is only the third time I've been soaked like this, I should be used to it.' Arachne visibly pulled herself together and she looked around the ghoul at the other students with her, only knowing Mac and Sepheran. She looked at Mac.

'I lost your coat. I'll buy you a new one if we ever get back..'

Sepheran listened as Lizzy listed off her items. He nodded softly before digging his out as well letting Liannan get a good look at them. "Seems like I got a flashlight and a note as well...I brought along the wooden toy sword as well," Sepheran added lifting his hand slightly to show the weapon he had picked.

Sepheran tensed slightly at the sound of something approaching and his grip tightened a bit on his sword. It wasn't until a voice called out Lizzy's name that he seemed to relax slightly. Someone Lizzy knew then?

Judging from her reaction it seemed that was the case. With Petro standing in front of him for the moment it was hard to get a clear grasp on who they were. That is until he heard one of their voices. He remembered that voice from an encounter during school. It had to be Arachne...and she was Lizzy's friend?! Ah now it made sense, he thought he had heard her name before he had actually met her.

"The third time? What did they do to you on your boat?!" Her frown seemed to deepen even more as she tried her best to ignore the cold - and the fact that her clothes were now slightly damp from hugging and clinging onto all her wet friends. When the Spiderkin addressed Mac, Lizzy blinked, looking from Arachne to Mac, and then back to Arachne again; it didn't take long for her to realize that they had been on the same boat... What a coincidence! Not sure if Arachne knew the rest of their "crew", she decided to go ahead and introduce everyone.

"I'm glad you two know each other! As for the rest... That is Petro, the one behind him is Sepheran - his lovely snake is Liannan - and... Uh..." She paused, her face turning a shade of pink as she moved over to the sneezing ghoul, a sheepish smile on her face as she dipped her head at her, "I'm sorry... I forgot to ask for your name...? I'm Lizzy!"

Lots and lots of introduction today!

She then nodded at Sepheran; it would seem like all the bags are identical... There's not much to work from. Addressing the two ghouls who had decided to join them, her tone then grew serious as she picked up her bag again, taking out the old wooden bat before slinging the bag over her shoulder, "We're checking out the coast if you'll like to come along? If not, there are still some students at the tent, and there's a bonfire to warm up by... We'll be returning there once we're done scouting the coast. I personally find the ships suspicious..."

She gestured towards the two ships in the distance, "Everyone good with us heading there first?"

Sepheran relaxed too soon. Silent as the fog, a cloaked figure had stepped out behind him, weapons raised. A thunderous shot echoes over the waves.

Sepheran smiled softly and began to nod at Lizzy's statement about heading to the coast, he hadn't at all realized the threat behind him until it was too late. The sound of a loud thunder like sound managed to warn him enough that he was able to escape most of the damage, but not completely. "Ugg!" Sepheran groaned his shoulder slightly wounded, it seemed to still be in working order though.

Spinning quickly Sepheran lifted his Wooden toy sword and swung with all his might hoping the figure was standing behind him. Unfortunately he was not so his attack missed, but at least he was facing the attacker...right?

Mandy attention was snatched from Mac when she felt the jacket settle over her shoulders. Giving the ghoul who had obviously given it up to her a surprised look she fleetingly thought of protesting b- but it was warm and the other ghoul wasn't wet and it was warm. So instead she gave the ghoul a smile, pulled the coat tighter and stuttered out a thank you. Jack, her teeth where starting to chatter.

Her attention then drifted back to the boil who had still not answered her, she was in a rather one track mood at the moment so she simply let the conversation drift around her.

That was until she was asked for her name. Shaking her head a bit to clear it of the fog that had obviously settled there she replyed, "Im Mandy, I was on the same boat as Sepheran". The last bit was tacked on as she only just starting to pay attention to who was in the group beside the boil- Mac was it?

Really she was alarmingly out of it now that she thought of it anyone could sneak up on the- OH JACK, AN ATTACK.

This was Christmas Town V2.

There is no explanation for their actions, they move quickly and efficiently, swinging their arm forward and taking aim. Something stings upon contact, leaving Sepheran feeling oddly tired.

It seemed even though Sepheran had turned to try and get a good grip on where the enemy was, it was fairly useless. Sepheran groaned once more as he felt a sting from the attack making him take a step back. What they heck were these things...?! Sepheran could feel himself growing heavy and slower then normal, as if losing his energy. He would have to be more careful from now on.

Still...he wasn't going down without a fight, lifting his weapon he tried to once more go in for a hit. His slowed reflexes however made it easy to dodge it seemed as he missed yet again.
