Ivar's eyes were closed for a good part of the ride, a clear indication that he was rather annoyed by the situation around him. Edel eyed him nervously from the seat beside his. It had been her suggestion to take the trip by public transport, which by now, she figured, was probably a bad idea. The ghoul cringed as the song playing segued into a jarring sequence of screaming and extended electric guitar solos. It didn't bother her as much, having had Roch as a friend, and that she had probably heard a number of terrible attempts at covers from the various bands in school. Her glance shifted to her company once again, who just let out a low sigh. It was probably out of pure politeness that he had refrained from saying that they should have hired a private carriage.
The bus began to shake terribly, jolting his eyes open. In a swift motion, he had managed to strap on the seatbelts for both of them, all while managing not to make any bodily contact. Something stirred within the ghoul's stomach, probably a mixture of guilt and something else, and the two fell back into the same pattern of silence.
Meanwhile, the view over the chasm was not as scenic as she had hoped for it to be, certainly not something she could distract the dark elf from the ride with. The fog was starting to block out parts of the view, though glimpses of old huts and houses could be spotted through the brief moments of clear air. Edel wondered how Ivar was taking the ride up the mountain, but any sign of motion sickness was absent in his stoic resting face.
That was, until the bus came to a stop and completely tipped off the edge of the cliff.
Edel opened her eyes to find a protective hand stretched over her when the bus finally came to a stop. The man on the other hand, was sporting a bruise on his forehead, and an even more damaged mood when he came to.
Nobody said anything as they crawled their way out of the bus.
They took a while to observe the setting around them, the ghoul at more unease with the fog than the man. It reminded her of the Insanity that plagued their fieldtrips while she was still in school. Apparently that part has not changed...
“Hmm..” he broke the silence, whipping out his eyephone to call for help. There was no signal.
He sighed.
“It might be a bit of a walk to the village,” he voiced, looking at the frost demon was concern, “I hope you don't mind?”
“Not at all,” she replied quickly. She didn't have any right to complain for getting them into this.
Some familiar figures loomed ahead as they began making their way to the village. Edel could definitely recognise the one belonging to a certain married man.
“Shun.” she greeted, with a repressed grin on her face, “How nice to see you.” Probably not, given the setting. “Congratulations once again.”

Nkosazana had always liked taking trips in Halloween. Despite her people's detachment from it, Nkosazana had quickly grown fond of the world and those who were within it. In fact, she often wondered if she should just go live there herself...
Though there were other reasons behind that besides for the interesting youthful diversity of the place.
The former priestess gazed out the window, watching as the world shook and waved beyond the path of the giant snake. This was an awful ride. She was hoping that the trip would be worth it, in the end. Nkosazana was not exactly the most fond of road motion. In fact, she was pretty sure she felt the queasiness setting in--
And then the train flipped. And swerved. And ducked and dodged. Her hand snapped to her lips, and she looked around for a window. Oh Death, what had she gotten herself into?! Maybe Halloweentown trips were not the best idea for her--
With the sudden stop, she lurched forward, attempting to grasp the nearest thing to her to keep her balance. She took a few quick, stabilizing breaths, before her mind shifted away from the nausea to everyone else in the bus. "Is everyone alright?!"
She didn't see signs of anyone dissipating, at least.

In response, Piper said something quite muffled into the ground. One could assume it was a sassy one liner since, well, it normally was. And lucky for both Lock and Brenley, it could have been aimed to either one of them! Everyone's a winner! Especially her, since she had apparently knocked someone over in her little tizzy. Great.
She would have preferred a little more time on the ground to get her bearings, but then she felt something leaking into her hair. With a small screech, Piper leapt to her feet and entangled her fingers in her hair, wide eyed with panic as she tried to deduce what exactly was messing with her gorgeous locks now.
And then she noticed said group from the previous vision was all right there. Including Brenley, whose voice she only now recognized. More great. All she needed now was Amrita or Tajana to show up and complete the party.
She just sort of stared at everyone like a deerling in the headlights, slowly smoothing her hair back down.

Of course Hel had to be there--it was exploring somewhere new with a legend attached. Also though because her boss demanded it. Intel and snooping and what not.
But then the crash happened...and really, it wouldn't have been an event of any kind without something happening.
The reaper popped up near Shun, grinning from ear to ear as after she blew some of her bangs out of her face. "Shun!" She exclaimed. "So good to see you again--and you have your scareling with you!" This was directed at Locke, but then her short attention span quickly moved on. "PIPER!" She cried, and then looked even beyond her to see--
"BRENLEEEEEEEY!"

Dekana stopped mid step as someone flapped out in front of him and addressed him directly. Blinking he arched a brow, a mischievous grin playing across his lips, "Truly magical adventure? Sounds like you intended to be here then. Where are you headed?"
Perhaps he'd tag along if this oddball had a sense of where they were...

Sayael hadn't been happy with the bus ride, but she'd managed and kept her branches out of the way of other creeple so they wouldn't touch her, and when they'd arrived she had rushed off the bus to make sure her branches were in pristine condition.
"There, there. Calm yourself, Sayael. It's only a few moments among the dregs." Keen black eyes with green orbs scanned over the students, curious to see which would benefit her the most.

Torgus turned to the boil who clasped him on the shoulder and issued a solemn, "Thanks, bro."
Hunt and eat?
"Yes. Like, you know. Grilled snake." That was a fantastic idea. "Th' name's Torgus, by the way," he added proudly, to anyone who would listen. "Torgus of the WAR CLAN!"
"WAR CLAN REPRESENT!"
He unsheathed his knife again and stabbed it into the air a few times enthusiastically.

Shun twitched slightly at Hel's choice of words.
"He is not my scareling. I am his mentor," he corrected flatly. Did she seriously think he would have a kid? Shaking his head slowly, he glanced to Lock briefly, silently, then turned to regard Edel.
"...Thank you, I suppose. Though I do not know why repeated congratulations are needed."

"Eh?" Viktor's attention turned to a very enthusiastic individual who was introducing themself. He seemed happy to be in this strange place. The kitsune couldn't help, but chuckle in amusement at Vaudrey's enthusiasm. "Magical adventure eh?" Maybe this would be a fun trip after all? He turned his music back down so he could introduce himself as well. He walked over, with a small wave, and held out a hand in friendly gesture. "I'm Viktor! Nice to meet ya. Talk about a wild ride huh? Can't say I've ever been transported by Snake before..." he trailed off, gazing around the Town, at least what he could see of it with all the fog.
"So any ideas where we are exactly? I might have hit my head a few times on the bus. Heck, I can't even remember why I was riding to begin with, but....Maybe we should have a look around?" He laughed it off though. He didn't seem too concerned at the moment. Just curious. He wanted to explore.

The world made TG a honest demon.
Face down, he was first crushed by a bag and then covered in black ink. Jerking up, he fought and struggled to shove the massive bag off of him befeore he crawled out, spitting and wiping his face as he stood up, rubbing his eyes and shouting.
"IT BURNS!!!!"
He rubbed his palms over and over against his eyes as he tried to rid himself of the ink.
She took a small step back from the Horseman. Merely to avoid getting randomly stabbed by the enthusiastic swinging of his knife. Getting stabbed was not on Falair's list of things to do today.
Or ever.
Though she was quite unsure if he was the one to really be at the forefront of War clan representation. She could give him credit for high spirits at least. "Falair." Her name was offered to no one in particular, but if she were to be here with all these other folks she could at least get some sort of introduction out of the way.
The mare knelt down to run bright red nails through the dirt. Curious as to what kind of creatures lived in such a fog. Not only the village citizens but critters as well. Reaching into her leather apron, she pulled out a small, leather bound book and began to idly flip through pages. Eyes rapidly skimming the text and notes that littered it.

Lock felt uncomfortable seeing a few horsemen there, one even so loud as to claim which clan he was from. Horsemen set Lock on edge now, and he made a quick gesture to Shun to point them out. Nothing but alert paranoia at all times forever.
Then Hel assumed that Shun was his dad and-
Luckily Shun cleared that up. "No, I am not," he further concluded, turning to Brenley and Piper instead. Piper was doing .... a dance? And Brenley was being Bren. "Are you quite alright?"

Amrita was not having a good time. The awkward, lurching motions of the giant snake-bus did nothing but set her nerves on end. She had resorted to gripping the sides of her seat, but to her credit managed to avoid flinching every time they made a sudden turn or hit an awkward bump.
"There must be better ways of travel--" She started to say to the Drider that sat beside her, but was promptly cut off as the off-roading snakebus took a dive. Then some flips, and finally, when they stopped, she was eerily still. Not even a finger twitched, though her knuckles were paling from the sheer pressure of her grip on her own seat.

Was this what all bus rides were like? Ellinore had gotten on the bus out of curiosity, and part of her wished she hadn't. It was a bumpy ride and not even as close to as fun as she assumed it would be. When the bus stopped and everyone seemed to be getting off she did the same, following the crowd. She had no clue where they were, but from the looks of it she wasn't alone there.
The mist was all around her as soon as she stepped out. "This is strange..." she said as she she looked around. It didn't look like the bus was going anywhere any time soon so she might as well look around. That's what she set out to do anyways, explore new places.
