[Hopefully everybody likes waking up outside.

Because as it were, in the middle of the night when everybody had been asleep or lulled into a sudden one by the sheer weight of the air around them...the Campus disappeared in its entirety. Left behind was only the cool surface of the concrete foundation.

For now it seems the residents were left to fend for themselves in the wilderness of the island. Not even the voice from over the intercom would comfort them.]

((ooc: the school has disappeared, along with all the NPCs and everything that was inside! no opt-out areas this time around. The temperature is cool during the day, and colder at night.

The event will last until October 20th, and I'll post a closer to signify it. Everything will be returned to its rightful place then.))

[This room is definitely one that you wouldn't expect to find in a school, considering that it appears to be a gigantic cafe. Plush carpets, cushioned chairs, a whole bunch of fancy drinks and snacks...

Someone put a dating cafe in the school!]

drunken_noodle

[He should maybe...be picking a different spot to be napping, but hey, it's dark and he has no idea where he is so that's completely normal to do at night right?

Wouldn't be the first time you've seen some random guy laying with his arm as his pillow on the ground. If you're lucky maybe not but a guy has to sleep sometime. Maybe now wasn't one of his better choices given anyone could just stumble over him like that as he was sort of...in the way, but hey now you wouldn't do it on purpose right?

In any case there you have it; Human barrier # 1 in your path snoring away.]

lethalheels

[ The sound of heels clack through the hallway. Purple clings to her body. Don't get all feisty, boys. She's packing heat at her hips and by the way there's not a single hair out of line, one could assume she's a sharp one.

It's not difficult to tell what her day job is if you know the signs, but luckily Nina isn't in the mood to get trigger happy just yet. She has a few questions first if someone has a willing ear.

She'll crawl up to any person, woman or man, and speak every so sweetly. Bitter-sweet, maybe. ]

Help a lady out, will you? I seem to have lost my way.

(ooc: UHM YEAH SO HI )

Today, everybody received a neatly written note under their doorstep:

TUESDAY, AUGUST 20TH ONLY
COME DOWN TO THE BEACH FOR A SPECIAL FEAST!
We will be having BBQ, ice-cold sodas and alcohol (please only drink if you are 21 or older, thank you), and a cooler filled with icecream. There will also be beach toys and towels for the kids. Enjoy the fun and the sun!

So, if you were so curious as to let that note tantalize you and headed to the beach just outside the Campus, you would find the sweet nurse Lisa to greet and welcome you in...and then lunch lady Edna scowling at you as she cooked.

At least with Lisa's supervision, the food might just be bad, instead of likely to give you food poisoning, right?!

"Enjoy the fun and the sun!"

intercom_voice

[Surely it was too early for another announcement, right...? But then there it is, that tell-tale electronic feedback screeching through the halls before a mature female voice resonates through it.]

The doors are unlocked.

[That's all she says. Those who are curious might test the front doors...and they'll find that they open not to the seemingly civilized outskirts of town as the now vanished view from the roof may have made you think, but to the horizon. Likewise that barrier and its lies blocking anybody's escape via the roof or sky has collapsed, leaving the air a tad bit...more temperamental. You see, there was weather now.

Out from the front doors of the Campus can be see an expanse of land and then the sea. Anybody who ventures out further will find that they're still trapped, only in a bigger cage. This new cage is now five miles across the diameter at its longest point. The island itself is about as varied as it comes: covered jungles, a cave system, a single stream leading up to a freshwater lake, and a lone mountain near the center. One part near the front of the school is home to a sometimes-pleasant sandy shore ripe for the hunting sea life. Everywhere else is a perilous cliff fall into the sea.

Anybody who tries to escape via the sea will find the riptide tearing them back to a cave near the shore.]

((This event is a permanent setting expansion, you can read more about it here as well as in the island setting page near the bottom here. Have fun, if you have any questions simply address them to the OOC post, plurk, or AIM if applicable, and please don't forget to tag your series!))

thumbsdown

[Having met the Courier a short while ago, Boone has felt more encouraged to look for a way out of this place again. Today he'd spent some time just strolling along the corridors, opening doors and shaking his head when they led to nothing more than common rooms or vacant dorms. In fact, he's almost losing hope again when the next door he opens gives him a shock. It... seems to lead straight into the Mojave wasteland.

Boone is, by nature, a suspicious kind of guy. And yet he can smell the scorched earth and feel the heat from the sun, even here- real as the clothes on his back. This has to be it... right? Gripping his rifle, he slowly edges into the room. If this really is the Mojave... well, for all he knows there could be a cazador nest just out of his line of sight. He'd rather made sure the coast is clear before trying to find Elle.

He stops dead when he feels something cold and heavy clamp around his neck. His first instinct is to grab at it, and his hand finds metal. Though the door hasn't shut behind him, he suddenly realises that if he tries to get back through there now, the collar around his neck will detonate. He can't say how the realisation comes to him- he didn't even know it was rigged to explode- but he suspects it's something to do with this room. So... this isn't really the Mojave, huh. More like a trap- and he fell for the bait. Swearing under his breath, Boone backs away from the door and checks out his surroundings. No doubt there are some requirements he has to fulfill in order to get out of here.]

((this room happens to be a ~*~*team building exercise*~*~! as soon as another person enters the room with you, one of two things will happen- you will be attacked by multiple enemies (their type depending on which world you've stepped into, obviously), or a natural disaster of some kind will occur (think earthquake, hurricane, that kind of thing). in both cases, you and your partner will have been fitted with an explosive collar, set to detonate if you try to cross the door back into the school too early, if you and your partner wander too far from each other, or if your partner dies. your character will be aware of these rules the moment the collar is fitted- don't ask how, you probably don't want to know. the world you step into can be any kind you like, so go nuts! the collars will automatically deactivate and drop off once you and your partner have survived a full night or day.))

perpetuallyexposedchest

[It was one of those nights. The kind of night where Miguel's most painful memory lays alongside him in bed, quietly strangling tears from his eyes. Sometimes it seemed like no matter what bed he tried to escape to, the memory always knew where to find him; seeping into his mind just to constrict and choke the happiness out of his brain. ...He's been far too sober for far too long.]

[Hefting himself up from bed, Miguel decides to go on yet another search for anything capable of numbing his senses. Booze is preferred- but anything capable of dulling him down and blurring his thoughts would have to do tonight. He just needs something to fix this damned forced sobriety that has plagued him for nearly a month now.]

[...And luckily, it isn't long before he finds it! Completely by chance, the Spaniard happened to wander into an open door which mysteriously didn't lead to yet another classroom- but instead a large open bar and lounge. To Miguel it might as well have been heaven. He has already enjoyed quite the plethora of drinks available by the time others began showing up, and so he's pleasantly drunk himself at the moment, and in a much better mood than he had been in previously.]

[Where did he get that guitar from? Well, don't worry about that. But as of right now he's sitting upon the bar table itself; playing the guitar impressively well- especially when considering the fact that he is drunk and his wrist is still healing from a fight he got into about a week ago.]

((OOC: Perhaps it's the sweet sound of a Spanish guitar that draws you in? Or just the inviting sight of actual booze? Either way- DRINK UP! Miguel is distractedly absorbed in playing his guitar at the moment but feel free to poke him regardless or chat amongst yourselves.))

Current Mood: drunk
Current Location: AN OPEN BAR/LOUNGE

intercom_voice

[Much like last time, the intercom buzzes to life in the middle of the night for only a moment. An annoyed sigh can be heard.]

Oh dear. That's not supposed to happen...

[That's the last thing everyone will hear during the night. But in the morning, they will find themselves surrounded by vegetation so thick it'd be almost impossible to tell that they're in a school if they didn't already know. Vines coming out of the floorboards and covering the walls/ceilings, exotic plants growing out of the walls. Not to mention the wildlife! Just about any animal you would imagine to be in a jungle, dangerous or not, can be found lurking in the school. But don't worry! Not every corner of the campus is infested with poisonous plants and carnivorous beasts. The cafeteria is one hundred percent clear. It seems that the lunch lady's awful cooking is doing some good at keeping the wildlife at bay. In fact, anything that starts to grow anywhere near to doors of the lunchroom dies off pretty quickly!

May want to steer clear of the auditorium, though. The vegetation there is the thickest...and most dangerous.]

((TIME FOR ANOTHER EVENT. Seeing as how this one went up a day late it'll go on until the 19th. Every area is covered in vines, flowers, and animals. Some are dangerous (plants included) and some are harmless -- I'll leave that up to player discretion on what's hanging around. As long as they're plants/animals that would normally be found in any kind of jungle. Remember: nothing too big, it has to fit in the campus! The air is also really humid and muggy. The auditorium will have the bulk of the dangerous animals/plants, and also the biggest!

Lisa the nurse will be around to heal wounds or any poison (the symptoms of the poisonous plants are up to you. It's not a mind altering poison or anything, though), but her office will still be filled with vines and small animals, nothing dangerous. And as mentioned above the cafeteria is all clear and Edna will be around cooking all her awful food. Have fun!))

perpetuallyexposedchest

[Very much annoyed that he mysteriously can't seem to exit the room he entered for some reason, Miguel lets out an annoyed grunt.]

Que suplicio- What now??

[This room is very odd indeed; mounds of random junk littering the floor against the walls and in all four corners of the large space. In the middle of the junk-filled room, there is a table. On that table is a hat. Within the hat are small slips of paper with something written on them.]

[Entrants into this certain room will find themselves unable to leave until they draw a slip of paper and then locate whatever (or whoever) is written on it. The door opens only when the item is brought out with them. Items can be nearly anything; ranging from a puppy to a shoe to a signed copy of the Necronomicon to whatever else.]

((OOC: Players have the option of searching through the mounds of junk for their item (which may take a long while), or participating in a little forced interaction with those other unfortunate trapped souls to obtain what they need to leave. They can help each other out, work only towards their own item, or just mingle with others for the sake of it. It doesn't matter what method they use to get the item or where they find it... Just get what you need! Extra points for creativity in terms of whatever your character must find. It can be just one item or several. For convenience, I'd recommend naming the item that your character must find in the subject-line of your comment. Have fun!))

Current Mood: annoyed

intercom_voice

[Wherever you are, whatever you're doing, you will hear the loud screeching of a microphone through the speakers before it dies down. Not long after, a familiar husky voice blares through said speakers.

Although her tone is somewhat pleasant, she manages to keep her authoritative tone as well.]

Good afternoon. [There's a brief pause.] You've all been quite busy, haven't you? It's, hm...interesting to watch, to say the least. But do keep the property damage to a minimum, will you? It's awfully rude to smash people's property on arrival, don't you think?

[Despite that warning, she manages a soft (if a bit ominous) chuckle.]

That being said, I hope you're all well rested. A good rest means a good grade, after all~.

[There's another burst of feedback before the announcement comes to an end.]

ensconces

[The lady wasn't deemed pretty enough for him to look back more than three times at her and fitting in one question. Besides, there are important things he has to attend to. Questions include who is paying for his tuition and when the hell did he become such a fine genius! Well, he has been pretty sure that he's been smart all along. But if that really had been the case, then maybe he would have at least asked that lady.

No turning back, now! He's going to be a man and handle this on his own. By hanging off the clinic door and glancing down the hall. Huh, nothing too suspicious. He would slide down on the edge of the door before he is soon standing up. Time to get some real stuff done! Of course, all geniuses do have some flaws one way or another and this just happens to include easily getting one's sleeve caught on the door knob. Oliver's easily yanked back, causing his hat to fall off. And a spill. Now he's standing in a shallow puddle of candy.]

Hey!

[How dare someone-- the door --try to challenge him like that! After he gets his sleeve unhooked from the doorknob, the boy is quick to get on his knees to gather up the little salt water taffies he had been keeping in his hat.]

truetocaesar

[In the post-apocalyptic United States, schools that still stand are are bombed out shells of buildings, just like most everything else. This school, however, appears to be perfectly intact. As an important officer of Caesar's Legion, Vulpes Inculta is often tasked with conducting raids on enemy villages to gather much needed supplies and, hopefully as a consequence, thin the profligate herds. This place looks like it will have a great deal of supplies, ripe for the taking.

Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a way out once one makes it into the courtyard. Disturbed by this development (how will he report back to Caesar? Will he be considered disloyal?), Vulpes decides to set up camp somewhere safe until he can figure out what to do next.

After some searching, he finds a large gymnasium fully equipped with a pool, exercise machines, gymnastics equipment and miscellaneous items such as weights, jump ropes and boxing gloves. Impressed by all of this intact pre-war supplies, Vulpes gets right to moving all of the heavy equipment toward the bleachers, where he plans to construct a makeshift "fort". Whatever doesn't fit well, he works on destroying to make it fit.]

((Welcome to the campus gym! Feel free to ask Vulpes what he's doing, or mingle and try out some equipment that isn't being destroyed!))

iron_fist_king

[It was a fairly quiet day in the halls. Nothing was stirring really. The water had drained and everything was back to normal. We couldn't have that last, could we? As if in response to the quiet that had set in over the area, one of the cots in the Nurse's office could be seen flying through a wall. Through the wreckage stomped what seemed to be the angriest old man to ever be angry. Heihachi was not pleased with being here.]

Is this another one of your tricks!? Kazuya! Jin! Whichever one of you is behind this, I will find you and I will kill you with my bare hands!

mister_foppish

[Well, it's been almost a month and still he hasn't found a way out of here. While the facilities never seemed to run out of the essentials this was hardly a way to live at all. Not to mention the 3-4 feet of water still on the floors below. Pegasus currently was on the roof watching the clouds travel across blue skies, looking a little miserable. He's definitely not happy about being trapped here, and less so about the current state of the building. When was this inanity going to end?

He has his slacks rolled up to the knee and his feet bare, his back against one of the air conditioner units. More than anything right now he just wanted to be back on his island enjoying the sun in the comfort of luxury. His eye closes as he envisions that, the breeze tugging his hair almost managing to make him feel like he was back home. Except...a sudden silhouette was cast over him and he peeked his eye open.]

Pardon me, but could you...not stand in front of me? You're blocking my sun.

vaudevil

[The new rooming situation was a rather unique one. Apparently co-ed was out of the question for this CEO and he was roomed in with another almost identical to him in every way. It simply makes sense.

Lee's nap is interrupted with the sloshing sound. He's used to hearing the same sounds on his yacht, but wait...it's inside? His eyes snap open with an octopus staring right back at him. With a start, Lee sits up, yells, uses his pillow to slap at the thing several times before he manages to pluck it off his bed to toss it across the room with a wet slap.]

Good god! What is happening here?

[It's pretty clear to Lee that there's no way to clear the room without getting wet so off comes his pajama pants. Thankfully his boxers are easy to navigate the water with.]

Pegasus, has this happened before? Please tell me it has.

by_the_horns

[Well now this wasn't her motel room was it? A clean bed in a clinic wasn't as nice as a cushy motel double bed, especially since her most favourite person in the world was apparently absent... Awww why couldn't they kidnap him as well?]

Dammit all, ugh.

[Reluctantly she rolls out of bed and shuffles through the cupboard, pulling out her deck coat and her boots. Once she was ready she steps out of the clinic with a bounce in her step, this place was was surprisingly vacant for a NESTS building- Or maybe this wasn't NESTS at all and someone else decided to track her and K9999 down.

Angel sharply turns the corner only to crash into someone, putting her hands up in mock surrender and a laugh.]

Whoa there, don't ya know this place is big enough for the two of us?

vaudevil

[Last place Lee remembers is his lab at Violet Systems. Then he was whisked away to some god awful ship in the middle of the ocean where the rust was the only thing holding it together and now this place? The wall in front of him only makes him rolls his eyes. Forget using the door. He's had enough of imprisonment.

He leans back, and with a quick lunge, he's through the wall. He steps through and brushes the dust off from his shoulders wearing his trademark black tuxedo rather nonchalantly. Man, that felt great. Nothing gets rid of a little pressure than property damage.]

I appear to be fashionably late.

[He grimaces at the sight before him. White. Utilitarian. Boring. With a disinterested sigh, he goes about his business without really giving a damn about the wall anymore.]

squeal_like_a_piggy

[Hey- waitaminute... THAT doesn't look like one of the nurses you may remember from your arrival in the nurse's office. Hm.]

[Nonetheless, she soon approaches you as you catch her eye.....]

Oh my; you look awful.

[Anna approaches you in the hallway; wearing a hyper-sexual nurse outfit. One must wonder whether this is the result of Campus-magic shenanigans, or just another highly impractical costume of her own collection.]

[Canting her head to the side; a look of faux-concern on her features.] Have you had a check-up lately?

I absolutely insist that you see me for... a thorough inspection. It's for your own good, really~

((OOC: ANNA HAS OFFICIALLY GOTTEN BORED ENOUGH TO RESORT TO HER USUAL TROLLING WAYS. Note: In case you don't know, this lady is a sadist who gets off on other people's pain/embarrassment- So if you respond here she WILL do her best to make you as uncomfortable as possible- be it through a brief casual prank or something much more sinister. She may get flirty, or put you through some pain, or humiliate you, or all of the above. Therefore, if there's something I just mentioned that you DON'T want your character to go through (i.e- nothing too sexual or no bruising or no humiliation)- please specify. Don't worry about outright gore or anything overly hardcore since she's mainly just in a playfully dominating mood. ~~Unless you desire otherwise~~.))

((Also yes I know I owe some tags which I will get to; I was just really in the mood to make this post. ...Even if I'm double-posting shut up))

Current Mood: devious
Current Location: Some random hallway

devil_beard

[When Jinpachi found himself alive and in one piece, his first instinct was to just lay in the bed he found himself in. It was comfortable enough. A huge improvement from being chained up under a shrine for a couple decades. His eyes opened just enough to glimpse the hell he was surely sent to only to find... a nurse's office? One not unlike a high school's? Jinpachi sat bolt upright, quickly scanning the surroundings for any sign of attackers and only when he was satisfied he was safe did he venture out into the hall.]

[Once in the hall, something strange occurred to him. The constant drive to kill, to see the world of man reduced to ashes was... gone. Well, not technically gone, but rather... silent. He hummed to himself for a moment - even that was distorted by a sound of multiple voices speaking in unison - before raising his fist and sending it crashing down to the ground. The impact was earth-shattering and along with the impact, a shockwave of demonic energy was sent out that would knock a normal person on their butt if they could sense it.]

So... I am finally in control of it. I can see why Kazuya would lust after such power. Now... to find just where I am and why I am alive.
