You find yourself sucked into the bottle and in the Desert.
It's blindingly bright. The air is scorching hot and dry. Far, far in the distance you think you can make out the outline of a small gathering of palm trees, and the objective becomes very clear to you.
The disembodied voice speaks to you:
"Is it a fear to find yourself in these circumstances? Survive the extreme conditions and make it to the oasis. There is a golden lock there. Touch it, and you pass this trial."

gaia_crown WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW: THE TRIAL
Mini Game Activated:
The Oasis itself can be very beautiful, but what lurks in the shifting sands, might prove troublesome for the adventurers. At least that's what they call you. In the middle of the Oasis (not in the water, my god people, the water is a pure resource here). There is a woman scantily dressed. By scantily I mean she's down to an itty bitty Yellow Polka Dot bikini with a pink floaty ring.
"Yoohoooooooo." She waves, because to be honest, that's the only way to get attention. She will KEEP waving until someone talks to her, so if you are busy amongst yourselves fighting, you'll hear the sound of her yoohoos through the whole fight.
ANYWAYS.
Once you come up to talk to her (keep your eyes focused up, babes) she smiles. "I lost something. Can you find it in the desert? It's like...REALLY important to me." She flips a hand through her hair. "So you know. You'll see it when you see it!"
Her stomach grumbles a little.
"Can you hurry though? I've been waiting forever!"Quote: gaia_star Beach Babe's Request Activated! emotion_kiss You can venture out into the desert to search for whatever the hell the pink ringed chick wants. There are no clues to what the hell she wants, but hey, it's not like you really have anything else to do in the desert right? emotion_kiss To search for an item in the desert, you must post a picture of something that you find, and it can be anything (but remember, acceptable for Gaia's PG-13). Link it in a spoiler image and quote Pixie Nyxie. She's not some buxom babe in a pink ring (Lucyal says she is) but she has a pretty good idea what the woman's after. However, if you find something and it angers the babe, CONSEQUENCES WILL HAPPEN. You can win IC prizes for some goods you find, seeing as this an Oasis, resources are hard to come by. emotion_kiss Just so you know, if you swim in the Oasis, you will die. This is a no swimming zone emotion_kiss Hints will be dropped randomly throughout the thread if someone doesn't post images similar to what the babe is asking for! The images required for each person are DIFFERENT. To keep the trial fair, you cannot use the same image as someone else to pass. emotion_kiss Please no photobucket links for images. If you feel pretty ballsy, you can also DRAW your guess!

[Sailor Botein is Entering][Inventory: 1 Health Potion]Botein honestly shouldn’t have been surprised when she found herself in a giant desert since the air from the bottle practically screamed it. But what was even more surprising was the woman who was calling out to the three of them, a woman in a tiny bathing suit and a floaty ring. Deep blue eyes took it all in and she couldn’t help but frown in confusion. The frown deepen at the order to find her something in the sand but didn’t specify what. Confused and uncertain that Botein would actually find something, anything, beyond sand the senshi plodded off a bit and started to poke around in the dunes. To her unending surprise she found something! Pulling out the plastic it took a moment for her to comprehend what she was holding. It was an ice cream bar. A cold ice cream bar. Specifically a Snickers ice cream bar. What the goodness? Hesitantly the young girl presented the sealed chilled treat to the lady hoping it was what she was looking for.

MOIRA is ARRIVINGHP: 20 / 20 Moira's eyes, now used to the darkness of the central hub, stung from the sudden burst of light. Throwing up a hand to shield her eyes from the sudden light, Moira focused in on the yoohooing. It was the only clue as to what was going on, but Moira would rather not go in literally blind. She stood still for a while as her eyes got adjusted and slowly she turned her gaze to the source of the calling. Oh brother.She sighed and trudged over, listening to the bikini girl's plight as she did so. Why couldn't she just leave the oasis and go to look for what she wanted herself? Moira huffed and turned around again, wondering how hard it could have been to find what the woman wanted in the vast, sandy, nothingness. Hard, it would seem, as Moira trudged through the sand seeming endlessly before she found a paper bag half-buried in the sand. She snatched it up and was met with the scent of bacon -- just like the scent the bottle had given off when she picked it up. Well it made sense, and the woman had said that she was hungry. "Is this was you lost," she asked, panting and thirsty.

The bacon sandwich, brought back to the buxom beach babe was met with sort of disdain and hesitancy, added with the ice cream from a cat. Then her face turned and she just looked at Moira.
"Oh my god, where did you find that? It could be infested with sand." She flipped a hand through her hair, "I'm trying to watch my calories here okay? Can you find something a little less....."
She looked down.
"Food like?" She dismissed the girl, pulling magically out of somewhere on her bathing suit, a lawn chair and took a seat. She shifted around on it, getting herself comfortable with the ring before sighing. "Jeez. Can't you guys search a little harder? I'm dying."
Hint: She never said she was hungry.

[[ Meissa is entering ]]She had seen the other two members of their trio find food but it didn't seem to appease the one that was currently lounging on a beach chair looking regal with a very fashionable bathing suit and just apparently baking in the sun. Meissa felt the heat of the sun's rays herself and decided that she'd give her idea a go.
Making sure to stay to sheltered areas as much as was possible in a desert the Senshi of Bobcats trekked for a while before finding what she thought would bea suitable offering.
Returning to the oasis the senshi dropped her prize at her feet before moving around to a sheltered tree. Once she'd caught her breath the senshi picked up her offering and opened it by turning the little crank on the side.
"Is this what you are seeking?"

HP: 20 / 20 Moira held the woman's gaze for several moments, her face unexpressive and passive. Seriously. Seriously? This woman was asking -- no -- begging for their help, and she wasn't even going to give them the exact description of what they were looking for? Moira's eyebrow twitched, reminded annoyingly of her older sister in just how ******** flaky this woman was. Finally, she closed her eyes, heaved a deep and burdened sigh, and crushed the bag in her hands, tossing it over her shoulder and heading back into the desert to look for something that was, in the woman's words, a little less food-like. Moira sifted through the sands with her fingers, cursing the woman and her stupid bikini as she did so. What the hell was she even looking for? The woman said that they would know when she found it, but as Meissa ran by her with an un=mbrella, Moira was more concerned with where the hell did you even find that?!Finally, her hands closed around something solid and Moira plucked it from the sand. Was this it? Moira was no more certain about this item than she had been with the sandwhich, but this, at least, made a little more sense. They were in a desert, after all, and though the woman seemed to live in the oasis, she didn't touch the water. "Is this was you're missing, miss? Are you thirsty," she asked as she held out the water bottle to the woman.

[Sailor Botein][Inventory: 1 Health Potion]Botein absently chewed on her bottom lip as she took in the reaction, or dismissal, of the ice cream bar that she had found. Moira's sandwich had also been turned down with a sniff and more of an attitude then the young senshi liked. Sapphire eyes narrowed at the woman and her actions before Botein huffed and started off once more. The sand was hot and was getting everywhere, the beading on her outfit was starting to feel like it was singeing her every time they touched her bare skin. Logically she knew that being covered was the best in the desert, there had been a really neat show that she had seen that talked about surviving in extreme weather, but it still stunk. After a little bit of digging the strawberry blonde came up with a fan, one of those palm fan things, and raced back towards the oasis and her companions. They must have been thinking along the same lines since they presented an umbrella and water. "How. About. This?" She asked, panting a bit and hiding under the meager shade of the palm trees. She would adore some of that water right now but Botein wondered just what would happen if a person consumed food or drink while in this bottle trap. Would it be like the legends of the fay? Would they be trapped, never to return?

Sweenys_Revenge Moira's water is added to her inventory, If she drinks it, it will cause a spell effect for 12 hours of being parched. She can take this item with her to other bottles and into the hub. (Just include the description above in your inventory!) Fiction1119 Botein now is under a spell effect. For the next 12 hours, All Boetin can do (while searching, you may still post images) is fan giant tornado gust of winds. They can do -5 hp to anyone that Boetin specifically targets! tefla While not the item that she is looking for, Buxom babe appreciates the gift. She gives you 1 +10 HP potion for your inventory. Lord, Buxom Babe pulled out some glasses, as she sunbathed by the Oasis. It wasn't too terrible hot for her, to be honest, but Meissa's offered umbrella was taken and set up. It was pretty cute so the babe smiled at her. "Not what I'm after but I won't turn down some temporary shade." She waved.
As Moira brought a bottle of water over, She rolled her eyes behind sunglasses and then smiled at her. "I think I have plenty of water, but you can keep it for yourself. Might quench your thirst if you drink it." She snickered though, as she said it.
Lastly, Botein's fan earned a clap and some magical words from the beach ring Babe. "Also not it but hey, I can help you!" But by helping, she meant enchanting Botein AND her fan together.....at least for a little while! "You can keep people cool!" The babe laughed and then settled in again.
Hint: Have you ever seen Land of the Lost? She would like special 'resources'.

HP: 20 / 20 Moira had half a mind to splash the bottle of water right in the beach thot's face. Or pushing her chair over into the pool. Or all manner of things that would take out her irritation on the woman. In the end, however, Moira centered herself on the Law of Three and forced her temper away. Her fingers white-knuckled around the bottle of water, she envisioned the white-hot rage beading on her flesh like water on a duck's feathers and sliding off, being absorbed back into the earth. After a long moment of that and some very controlled breathing, Moira dismissed the bottle of water into subspace and turned away. "Boetin," she hissed low enough for only the other senshi to hear, "how about the next time we bring things back and they're not good enough, beach thot goes into the water?" She shot the other girl an uncharacteristically wicked little smile and turned back to the sands to resume her search. The sun beat down on Moira as she sifted through the sand again for what felt like hours before her hands closed around something searing hot. She pulled her hand out of the already boiling sand and checked for burns before untying the bow around her neck to shield her skin from whatever it was that had burned her. When she pulled out the object, Moira was certain she had found what the woman was missing. Carefully, Moira piled the jagged, colorful gems into her ribbon and ran as fast as she could back to the oasis. "Here. This time, I've got it. You wanted these crystals, right?"

[ Giza -Entering ]The heat that folded around them was oppressive and after the dimness of the realm of many bottles Giza had to squint against the brightness of the sun, but had the page not known better he'd have thought they'd just stepped straight into his past. "It's like the desert surrounding the city I grew up in." Just as hot, just as dry, and just as deadly to anyone foolish enough to go wandering ill prepared. They had no water between them, nothing to provide shade, though after a moment of thought the page summoned the palm frond fan that was his weapon, waving it back and forth to hit the both of them with a gentle proximity of a breeze as he searched the horizon from any hint of direction to go in. The voice had told them they needed to find an oasis, so when Giza spotted the splash of color against dunes that was the direction he started them walking in. It was closer than he would have thought, and once they arrived he was quick to realize they weren't alone there. Not only could see and feel the presence of other powered individuals that'd been trapped their with them, but there was a woman, scantily dressed, standing beside the water with an inflatable tube slung around her trim waist. Dark brows arched as he regarded her, features awash with disbelief before he released a small sigh at the provided task. "I suppose we had best get to it, then." His initial search didn't take him far beyond the oasis' shelter. Well trained eyes scanned the sand for anything that might have stood out as potentially important, and after a few long, quiet moments he returned with small bottle in his hands. "Is this yours, ma'am?"

[[ Meissa ]]So she didn't want an umbrella but Meissa pocketed the health potion that the buxom babe had gifted to her. She gave a half-hearted chuckle at the other gifts before scrambling back out into the desert. She needed to find something really, really special to impress the one who was seeking.
It was on her trek out that she caught sight of a stranger amongst them and paid no attention to the newest arrival. She was on a quest to find something rather unique. Scrambling over a sand dune Meissa skidded through a pile of sand and stumbled over something that had snagged her foot. "Oof. Could do without random things tripping me up."
Meissa turned around to see what had caused her to pitch forward and sighed in irritation. Where were all these crazy items popping up from. Resigned she hobbled back to the oasis and presented her prize to the beach babe.

[Sailor Botein][Inventory: 1 Health Potion]HP: 15/20Botein took a deep calming breath as her fan was turned down, but was handed back. As much as she wanted to snap at the busty woman that a please and a thank you wouldn't hurt the young senshi had a feeling it wouldn't do any good. Rather she agreed with Moira's idea. They should chuck the woman into the oasis she appeared to be so fond of. "Thank you," the strawberry blonde gritted out, with a false smile, as she tucked the fan into her sash thing and turned to head back out into the burning sands. Just what was the lady looking for? As she tried to rack her brain for ideas the young senshi absently started to fan herself with the fan that she had previously found. She didn't even get to react before she was blown away by a giant tornado of wind and sand. Her scream echoed across the dunes until she landed with a hard thump on to the burning desert ground quite a distance away. "Owwwww," Botein just lay there for a bit, aching and sore. She hated this place. She wanted to go home!
