so.

There are these people.

Very..... elite people.....

They live in this secluded place.

Some of them..... Completely oblivious to the "outside world".

Now, these people are what one could call.... Wealthy.

What one could even call extremely wealthy

Of course, they would have to be to keep their children in the state of ignorance that they do.

Now do not mistake my words. These children are far from stupid.

however these are the people that i spoke of, not knowing that anything outside their little paradise exists.



Then, of course, you have everyone else. Outside this little mass of houses on the hill are the "normal" people.

Although modern society would call them bums.

Because, you see, quiet little suburbs is not what await outside the gates of paradise. But a slum of sorts.

The current culture no longer "trusts" these people.

free thinkers

They refuse to fit into the mold that society has placed in front of them, so they have been banished.

Quiet the contrast between the two walls. On one side the gilded bird of luxury sits, on the other? Normalcy.
These people are part of neither world. Neither wall, they are as they wish to be,
unrestrained.

now, there are two people of significance in this story.

A rich young man named tod.

taken

and.

A free thinker named crysella.

taken


tod, like all his peers, has lived a life of seclusion and luxury. He knows not of what goes on behind the walls, he honestly thinks that this is the world. The walls? Simply the edge of it.
But you can't really blame him, it was how he was raised.
He goes to his all boy school, so he is obviously frustrated (as any teenage boy would be) with his parents. He thinks that there is an option, of which there is not. Girls and boys do not learn together because they are taught two very different things.
The boys?
They are taught how to rule their father's empires.
The girls?
How to dutifully follow in their mothers role of "loyal" housewife. Or perhaps they are simply taught not to get caught.
But the girl's delema, well it is another story.....

Tod is in his "rebellion" stage and is currently, shall we say pissed off, at his parents.
How it happened even i am not certain of. But tod got a glimpse. Literally, a glimpse of the "real world"
He wants to see more. He is intrigued by such a place and determined to find out what is going on with his world.
Is it a parallel universe?

No, simply a crack in the wall. The only thing he has to go off of, his brief glimpse...
Was a girl, our girl crysella.
Tod is certain if he finds this girl, that his restlessness will cease. He longs for excitement, and wants to piss off his parents as well.
So he follows the wall, and to his astonishment, he finds the gates out....






ahhh, this brings us to our darling crysella. Even her name is a tribute to why she was kicked out. According to society, she should have been something more common, like an ashley or brittany. How dare her parents have named her something meaning dark beauty? How dare they give her a name with a meaning at all?
"regulations keep people safe and happy." the trademark of the empire as it has come to be. Crysella's parents revoked it and subsequently were exiled. Not that they minded.
Our little crysella however had no choice. She does not resent her free thinking parents and are like them in many ways, she did wish she had gotten the choice though (even though she would have chose the exact same thing).
It was always the decision being her own that had mattered.

Crysella found something to occupy her time however, a crack in the enormous wall. She knew what lay behind it, but had never seen it for herself. So she would sit and watch for hours at the life on the other side.

Curious as ever and as if fate were playing a hand in it all, crysella went back. Peering through the crack she saw a face peering back at her and she immediately fled.

-rules-

=•=something you should know=•=
this roleplay is pg-17. Keep it that way.
Read all of these rules. If anything i have requested to be in the pm is missing, i will not accept your profile.


§♥§follow gaia tos§♥§
do not do anything that you even think could possibly go against the tos.

=•=be mature=•=
should be obvious. Don't have petty arguments. Please?

§♥§cybering?§♥§
no, just gross. Yeah we can tend to get carried away. But please try to keep it down to a minimum. Kissing, making out is fine. But bring it to the pms or time skip if it's getting too hot and heavy.

=•=no god-moding=•=
that means no using the other person's character. You can use any random character that doesn't really have an owner, of course. If you're curious as to what's allowed to be done by a certain character, then go ahead and ask: in a pm or in occ posts, i don't care. Also, if you are like "--- jumps forward and removes all ---- weapons so s/he can't attack" that is considered god-modding unless you give them a chance to escape/keep a hidden weapon or something....


=•=timing=•=
i want us all to be on the same page, all right? And by that i mean, i want the group to stay in the same day.

§♥§i am ruler§♥§
if you do something that i don't think you should be doing, i will let you know. If i ask you to change something and tell you why you need to change it, i would appreciate you actually doing such. Please and thank you.

=•=be active=•=
it'd be nice to have posts two or three times a week. If you can't do that, i can understand. I have school, so i might not always be online as often as i usually am. I know that people have lives, so i'm lenient. If you're going to be gone for a while, though, please let me know ahead of time.

§♥§be semi-literate§♥§
this is a must. i want a roleplaying sample in the pm of how you would play your character. if you don't meet my qualifications, i won't accept you. It's also slightly first-come first-serve, so long as your roleplaying is literate.

=•=occ posts=•=
this should be known, but occ posts need to be made in brackets, parentheses, braces, or anything else that cuts it off from the actual post.

§♥§i'm human§♥§
that means i can forget things. Example: i haven't told you the title of your pm yet! Xd let's make it.... caged bird

=•=suggestions are loved=•=
i'll take any suggestions for changes, though i may or may not do anything with them. If you have any rules you'd like me to add, tell me, and it'll be up here asap (maybe)

§♥§absolutely no one-liners§♥§
i understand writer's block, i have that occasionally as well. Yet even with writer's block, i'm sure you can squeeze out more than just one line of writing. Please and thank you =]]

this is the space between the walls. Or at least this is what everyone calls it. A hazy place where people who have "fallen out of favor" with the empire are sent. It is a rough life, creatures creep in the darkness and fires start all the time. It's not the most pleasant of lives, but at least it is a free one.

i am what the empire likes to call, a free thinker. And i like it!! My parents were kicked out for a multitude of “crimes” which pretty much meant they just would not conform to the standards set by them. They were some of the lucky ones and instead of being killed they were simply exiled. This all happened when i was about 10, i have lived for seven years in the place between the walls. Which we refer to as simply the murk. There are many …. Interesting creatures here….

As far as my past goes, it is really nothing special (other than the fact that i live in the murk that is). We actually have a house, alibit a small one that is falling down, but it is better than some of the things people can come up with… i do have to say, i am a marvelous huntress.

I never questioned life, not really. I mean come on, we live as human beings in the world, surrounded by gates. The gates are the end of the world duh….uh ******** no! It’s really great to know my parents and everybody lied to me, because this gives me even more of a reason to rebel and get all pissy. I’ll let you in on something; you know the term the prince and the pauper, or the story rather? Mmhmm, well uh, I’m the prince, literally. I’m about as close to royalty as you get. We don’t have kings or queens, but we have people that call all the shots, AKA momma and dadoo. And because I’m their only son (first born at that) in a group of five kids, I get the short end of the stick. Tod go to school with all penises! Tod grow up to be your daddy and banish people randomly for having red hair! TOD! No, shut up. I’m so sick of being told what to do when to do it and how to do it. I’m my own person and um I’m done with listening to people’s s**t. If I’m going to take s**t from anyone, it’s definitely going to be from myself. I can get away with murder too, just because of who I am, my genetics. Not to mention those same genetics let me know almost everything about everyone. The sad reality is, even though I had access to so much, everything was basically a lie. I never knew there was life beyond those walls, until I took a chance did something crazy and saw someone staring back at me.

קє๏קlє tђเภк เ'๓...totally someone I’m not. I’m a free sprit! Not some drone who’s perfect in every single way. People that “know” me think I’m some sort of brat. I’ll admit I have my douche moments, but I’m not a brat, just slightly flawed. But there’s no room for flaws, nope. Really though, I think I’m rather smart, maybe even daring. Tod (as simple as the name is) means fox. I happen to like foxes because, well, you never know what their up to behind those slanted eyes.

Crysella looked over her shoulder as she ran. She just couldn't believe someone had saw her. What if the empire found out?! Her parents had been lucky the first time... but there was no way there would ever be a second chance.
She slowed and stopped about a football field length from the gates of the wall, peering back.
It was interesting what she had seen however. A boy. Handsome and well groomed, something you didn't really get here. He also seemed to have an intense curiousity in his eye that almost rivaled her own.
She turned and looked at the bleak skyline. A darkness held over this place that no amount of sunshine could ever free them of.

It had been an epidemic, only the outcast lived outside the walls now...
She paused and looked back at the gate, wondering.

It's funny how one, tiny insignificant event, can cause a mind ******** that forever changes---life.
Yeah that's right, a complete and utter mind ********. It's a scary thing, to have everything you've ever been told be rendered useless. All that schooling, all those nine page essasys, were worthless.
Why? Because he had been living a lie.

A ******** lie.

Oh yeah, nothing's beyond those walls.
Bullshit he had been looking at the nature for a ******** week.

Oh yeah no one lives there.

BULLSHIT.

Someone was staring at him. Some chick, was staring at him.

And that was what landed Tod behind a trash can questioning the meaning of life.
What the ******** had just happened? He knew the obvious facts, but it was the analytical part that was starting to ******** him up. What did it mean? Not just the surface, but really what did it mean?

And more importantly, how did he see that girl again?

Crysella sighed, no one was following her. Thank god. She turned around and began to jog towards a familiar grove of trees to hide. She would wait there and watch the gate to see if anyone was pursuing her. At least this way she would be hidden but could still observe.

Tod huffed. Sure his life had been a lie, but that wasn't even what really got to him.
His parents had been the people to withold the information from him! Who the ******** did they think they were? Sure they called all the shots and basically controlled the entire empire, but he was their ******** sole heir! THR HEIR for christ's sake.
He shoudl know like everything, and more...before he's ******** out of all boy's school.
Speaking of which....he needed to get info out of that outside girl.
Oooooh and that would piss off his parents so much! YES!
Ah a win win situaton.

But how? How could he carry this out?
Tod's lips twitched as he thought, a pensive expression written all over his face.
He fished into his picked for paper, and shocker he had none! Who the ******** carried paper around anyway?
So being the resourcful kid that he was, Tod walked out into the streets, where the majority of the population was located and bough a pad of paper and a pen from a small convinence store.

Now with the tools necessary to complete his master (if not geniu) plan, Tod made his way back to the crack in the wall.
He immediatly looked through the crack, just in case, but to no avail.
He "hmmed" quickly before scratching the pen on the paper.

My name's Tod.

It was simple, yet deffinitaly a conversation started. He ripped the piece of paper so it was just the size of hiis writing. Tod folded it once, then stuck it through the crack.

OK, obviously no one was following her. And it didn't look as though anyone would be.
Which meant she could go back and get her weapon. She still had her knife, but the bow she had made was invaluable to her. Since obviously any of the modern weapons had been stripped of them and if any of the guards saw a Free Thinker with one... Well there would be hell to pay....
So she went back, back to the crack in the wall. And as she was reaching down to grab her bow she saw something that hadn't been there before.
What was it??
A piece of paper?? She slung her bow over her shoulder and pulled it out of the crack.

My name's Tod
And what the hell did he expect her to write with?? She sighed, it was interesting anyways. Obviously the boy she had seen was curious, and of course she was curious too. But she wasn't going to go about giving out names. Not even, her name could put a lot of people in danger...
So instead she looked around the ground for aaaa..... Ahh!! There it was. She grabbed a piece of flat, thin bark. Surprisingly strong for as frail as it looked, and taking her knife out she scratched the words into the bark.

User Image

She then cut the bark to size and shoved that in the crack as well. Then she ran off. Last thing she needed was to be caught by the wall...

God he loved coincidences.
And wasn't this the perfect coincidence? As soon as he slipped the paper in the crack, he got a lovely piece of bark back.
Um, that was sort of weird though. Why not just write on the back of the paper?
And because Tod (believe it or not) was highly educated, he used his powers of deduction to infur that perhaps life on the other side of the wall, wasn't at all like it was in the inner circle. Hell he couldn't even begin to imagine what lurked in that abyis beyond his knowlage, but hell, he wanted to find out.

He ripped off another piece of paper.

Who are you?

Suddenly, he practicaly shoved his eye into the whole.
No eye staring back at him, but what he did see was the blurry vision of a woman running.
Well.

He tore up his previous writings and wrote a knew message.

I'll be here once night falls.

And he had to wonder, would she show up?

Crysella kept running until she remembered one very important thing. Her arrows. "Mother ********> she growled angrily. ******** it, she wasn't going back right now, she would wait until later.
Liiikkkeee.... when the guards couldn't see her cause their night vision sucked.
Yep that would work. Well the only thing to do then was to head home and check on her parents. She started up her brisk jog again and headed in the direction of her home.

A light layer of darkness fell upon the inner circle of the empire. The sky wasn't pitch black, but it was purple enough to leave the streets empty.

Tod walked quickly to the alley way were he knew he could teke refuge from wandering eyes. There really wasn't that much crime in the empire...mostly because all criminals were "disposed" of, and with this mindset, Tod wasn't worried at all.

He hid behind the trash can, the blackness of night embracing his being.
No one seemed to be around.

Tod got up and scurried to the crack in the wall.

Hopefully, she would show.
