Gargantuan watched his teammates uncertainly as they launched themselves down the slides without any traces of fear. He wasn't quite so trusting of the rickety looking structures, and that wind was making it hard to keep his balance! With a heavy sigh, the swamp monster lurched his way over to a slide, a whine in his throat.
"Bye bye, Rikki," Gargantuan said glumly before taking Slide B. His teammates could probably hear him yelping all the way down.

For some reason, Rikki expected to see the mirror room upon re-entering the haunted house. Slides? A hundred times better. A thousand times better, even.
He peered over the edge into the fog and hmmed and hawed a bit, trying to decide whice slide to take. Danny hardly to see the surroundings before she disappeared down the giant tube at the far end, however, and Rikki found himself chasing her down. He jumped down the slide next to her, hoping they'd lead to the same place.

Whee-ouch! 
Roch was fortunate, his slide down was a quick whirl of wild winds, but he slid through a pit and found himself safely back at the hub
Moure had a hard landing, but luckily hadn't gone through a pit...upon landing he found a shiny button on the ground..ohhh! (Moure may choose to follow Roch, or wait for his fellow team-mates.)
Poor G his yelps no doubt ended when he flew through a pit and landed back at the top of the slides...luckily Danny was there to cushion is fall...unfortunately Rikki landed on top of him. (-2hp)
Rikki's slide luckily DID lead to the same place Danny's did...the top of the slides, and even more luckily G and Danny were both there to cushion her fall after the long drop! (-1hp)
(Roch is gone, the slides remain the same, you choose how you get down to the hub...some ways may be easier then others.)

Danny screamed and shouted with glee as she went down the slide- this was fun! She saw the others a few times as she was sliding down, but everything was so blurry that she didn't really catch most of it.
Eventually she saw the end of the slide, and giddily let out a giggle. As she burst through the opening, she shouted and giggled even louder. Eventually she bounced back onto the platform with all of the slides again.
"ONE MORE TIME ONE MORE TI-" A noise from behind her caught her ever changing attention. A loud noise.
A big noise.
Ohhhh Jack oh Jack oh JACKKKKKKK.
Danny tried to scramble out of G's way, but it was too late. He landed on top of her with a dull thud, and was quickly followed by Rikki on top of that. Danny was absolutely pummeled.
All of Danny was pummeled. Including her tail. Good luck with that one boils.

"Ahahahaha!" Oh jack this was fun! Or it was, until suddenly there wasn't slide underneath him anymore. He glanced down only to see a pile of G and Danny... and to land on top of it.
Ow! Ow ow ouch! He hopped up quickly, holding his tail bone and dancing around. "Owwwwwwwww...." he whined. Why did G have to have such a hard shoulder? His butt hurt so bad!

After Moure had actually made it to the bottom, he took a moment to check his stitches and noticed a little button on the ground. Eyebrow raised, he picked the little thing up, then turned to look back at the slides. He could wait for the others...
After some time though, and still no others, Moure gave a slight shrug and moved to follow where he'd seen Roch dart off to eariler.

[ENTERING FROM THE HORSEMAN HUB]
It seemed Roch would be missing out on his visitor of choice as the door to the room opened and two figures stepped in, seeming livid. Well, one of them may have seemed more livid than the other, but none the less, Invictus stepped into the room with Eris, looking over it.
Nothing.
Once again they had gone through a door that yielded nothing to them. No hunters, just students. Students who were playing with slides and acting like fools. If one of them landed on the Horseman, he likely would have destroyed them immediately with the irate mood he was in. The room was a mess. How was this supposed to yield any sort of result with the students.
This taught them nothing. Perhaps, however, Invictus was simply...spiteful... after how their last room had gone. He looked down to the lower area from where he stood, crossing his arms.
"I don't see the point in any of it."

(Entering as well~)
She wasn't quite sure what was going on in this room, but the ceiling was quite high, so she was pleased about that. Unfortunately, there were no hunters, so her mood soured again just a little.
"The rooms, or our searching?" Eris replied, clearly annoyed, although at least not angry anymore. Stepping forward with a few clicks of her heels, she too peered over the edge, wrinkling her nose a little at the mist, her muscles becoming a tad taut under her skin. It felt far too close to the island, and while she knew they were most certainly nowhere near it, it ran a chill down her spine, something she did not appreciate in the least.
"Should we return to try again? I don't even see--"
It was at that moment that Danny fell through the air to land a few feet away, Eris' eyes following her descent right up to the point where she made contact, clearly not sure how she felt about students falling from the sky (or making her comments moot.) She did the same with both G and Rikki as well, following both as they crashed on top of the other girl, finally quirking an eyebrow at the trio with mild, (and it was VERY mild,) interest.

The horsemen would apparently not linger for long in this room as they had the previous, however. Invictus watching the scene with a sort of vague look on his face.
"Perhaps you should try that one" Invictus suggested in an almost cold manner, motioning to the slide that would be 'C' with one hand, before he looked to Eris, nodding lightly to answer her question. "Yes. We should remain moving." he agreed, turning to step back through the door that they had both entered through, though he did wait for a moment to allow Eris to pass through first. Sometimes he could pretend to be a gentleman, after all.

Eris stared for about five seconds longer after Invictus proposed they leave, tilting her head slightly at the pile of students as he turned away from her, one finger pressed to her cheek in a thoughtful motion. But the moment passed, and her interest passed with it, her attention drawn back to the task at hand. Turning her back on the group, she followed after the heir of Conquest with a little sway, anger having clearly dissipated just from the curious site of Danny being smashed by her two teammates, lips curling into a rather amused look.
With a flick of her wings, she stepped slowly through the door, back to the clocktower.
(EXIT!)

It was difficult to say exactly how long they had been there. "They" being two statues made out of copper, standing on raised pedestals set between two doors. The statues had the bodies of dogs and the heads of lions; they were Fu Dogs. Each one wore a different collar decorated with skulls; one had a collar that was red, the other a sky blue. Each Fu Dog had one paw raised, resting on a sphere. Or is it a skull? It is difficult to tell. They move, their paws tightening around their treasures as you approach. "Well met," they greet in unison. "Your trials are almost over, Students of Amityville. What you have gone through is a sample, a mere taste of what is expected of some on a daily basis. But you are not here for that." They fall silent, looking down and studying each student carefully. The one with the light blue collar speaks first. "Your last trial awaits you. It will not be easy." "You will get to choose," the red collared one says, "This is a choice for each of you to make." "Not as a group." "Not together." "But individually," the two say in unison gravely. "You may only go through one door. Once you have made your choice and gone through it, you cannot back out." "The doors are locked for now," the one with the red collar says. "They will unlock when the time is right." "For now, consider your options," the sky blue collared one says. "You may change your mind before entering, but once you go through a door you cannot return." The statues fall silent as they exchange a glance with each other. "To determine which door you pick, please tell us... Do you regret? Quote: THE OOC:Welcome to End Game! There are two final events that are going on: the one you pick will determine WHICH event you go to. You must pick an option before Sunday October 30th at 11:59 pm. Failure to pick an option will prevent you from taking part in the finale! Finale threads themselves will open on Saturday; you may post in a finale thread if you see your name listed there. If you do not see your name listed, please wait for Marushii, lizbot, or chibizoo to add it. When you pick an option, please state it in BOLD ORANGE so I can see it at a glance! You may change your mind as often as you like until you enter a room. One you enter a room you cannot go back. You may only post in a finale thread if your name is listed there. Hope you guys are excited as I am for the finale! Until then, please use this time to finish your room's puzzles and get in your last boo fights! Not in your group thread? Please make your choice in OOC so I know where to put you! If you have a question, please ask it here. In addition, the finale threads will be posted as separate threads. When they go up on Saturday, please view them to find your name in them -- there's too many of you to quote-notify. |D <3

Gargantuan wobbled unsteadily to his feet, wincing at how sore he felt from the fall. It was a little comfortable, landing on Danny, but everyone else had been heavy! "Sorry." The swamp beast mumbled, and he flicked his tail as though to straighten it out. That was when the voices spoke, and he jumped a little, peering at the Fu Dogs uncertainly.
First strange people, now talking statues? He had no idea what was going on. He toddled closer to Slide C, peering at it for a moment.
"NO." G finally said, shaking his head. "Don't regret... maybe."
He glanced at his teammates for a moment, then tiredly hauled himself down slide C.

Danny rubbed her stomach and back as she stood up. Being crushed was not fun. A pair of fu dogs (had they always been there?) began speaking. Something about a decision, and not being together. Danny looked at G and Riri. She didn't want to lose her friends? The mean dogs weren't going to kill her friends, were they? Immediately Danny took a defensive pose.
They kept speaking though. There were apparently two doors they were supposed to go through, but they were locked at the moment. Danny was a tad confused. Why couldn't she just kick the door down? Or better yet, burn it to the ground. Maybe they were special doors, not meant for that sort of thing. Jack knows she would try to break it down anyways.
Do you regret?
Danny watched as G muttered something and then thundered down the C slide. Now she was all alone with Rikki.
She thought about the question. Do you regret. Regret what? Regret coming to the house? Yes and no. It was scary and she had died, and there had been lots of pain that came from it. Somehow, she didn't imagine the feeling of dying would ever leave her, not this time. At least last time it had been from Arel, someone who had presumably good intentions. This time was an enemy. A scary thing.
It wasn't all bad though. She had had a lot of silly moments, like dancing through the mirror maze, and getting to play in the fire of the first room. Plus they had freed their friends and saved the soul harvester from the bad guys! It wasn't all bad.
When she really thought about it though (and truly thinking didn't occur very often for Danny) she realized she didn't like having come to the house. She had learned about the scary gold-and-white coat people, and whatever they were doing in the tent. Some things just couldn't be forgotten.
Finally she came up with an answer. "Statue thingy? If you mean coming to the house, then yeah, I think I do," was all she said. It was a brittle YES, but it was a yes nonetheless.
With that decided, she turned back to Rikki, and offered her left hand to him, while the right hand pointed to the slide. "Let's go?" Her smile was back, goofy as ever. The fu dogs were wrong. She wouldn't really be alone.

((OOC SINCE MOURE'S IN THE HUB:
Moure says NO. Because if he had never come on this field trip, he wouldn't have gotten to feel like he belonged somewhere. (Although he then got to get that feeling twice, so, uh, bonus points, or something. :'D;; )))
