Wonderland Chapter 1: [The Crux]

First topic message reminder :

♦-------♦

While there is only one known universe there are so many more out there, each one having their own story each one with their own set of "Gods" or people with a higher power. There is though an outside, a place where things die, go to rot, go to never be seen again. This place is called Unbound.

Intro:
You wake up to the burning sun, sand everywhere, you feel horrible. Starting to get your senses back together you start to look around, noticing other's laying on the ground, waking up. There's a palm tree covering up some of the sun but it's not the best. As you stand up you notice clear water everywhere, and towards the north side, land. The land consists of deep rain forest, and almost no shore, as if it just cuts off into ocean. If you look closely you could see some figures moving but it was too dark to tell anything. Towards the south side you see nothing but ocean, the same goes for the east and west.

Extra Information/Goals:
- TAKE YOUR TIME
- One Liners will not be tolerated and you will be given a strike, 3 strikes is a ban.
- Develop your character. Seriously, don't bullshit
- Make friends
- You don't have to side with one group just because the "plot" is sending you there, there are other characters you are able to interact with, NPC's, Villains, etc.


*Your first post CANT be half assed, meaning if you write some random shit of how you woke up and just go into the Rp it wont be allowed. The intro is supposed to give you a feeling of what the surrounding is like, but you guys haven't woken up yet, you have to wake up your own character.*

Credo put his hand up and went on his knees.I don't know about them, but I'm not going out without a fight. Elder......please. Credo saw the men charging at him. He sighed as he was ready to pull out his pocket knife from his submissive position .

Ravin also nodded. He did not wish to be captured by pirates, but if he can find a way to get off this damn island then so be it. He sighed at the girl falling asleep again. Something felt off about her. Ravin showed no emotion though and prepped his weapon for the moment it may become hostile.

Echo slowly stood to her feet, snarling under her breath as the men approached. But slowly, the disadvantage became apparent; on top of the fact that these were not normal men in the slightest, they obviously weren't going to play nicely if the group didn't. Echo would have a chance to get away, but... she couldn't leave the kids behind. So instead, she looked to the rest of the group, yelling at the rest of them.

"Lower your weapons and guards! We're at a disadvantage! Better capture than death!"

Slowly, Echo lowered her hood to reveal her face before putting her hands up behind her head, staring at the men as they finally reached her. She muttered under her breath to Katz, biting her lip between words in worry.

"You learn something after a while, Katz... Victory over capture. Capture over death," Echo said, an ominous pause breaking her sentence as the men seized her, "and death over anything else."

Jade watched the whole argument and sighed. Why can't life be easy. There were way too many people to fight, so the real question was how could she get out on the ship. She thought to herself: If we can sabotage them, we may possibly be able to kill them and take the ship with it. She definitely had the supplies to do it. Making sure nobody was looking at her, she dug into her pack and pressed a button on one of the devices in her backpack. She then zipped it up and put her hands in the air. "Fuck my life."

Cass was shocked, men were approaching and Cass didnt want to be apart of this, He didnt ask to be here. He knew they were outnumbered and they were getting captured no matter what, Cass has never even been in a fight. one day Cass was just a school kid the next day hes stranded on a island getting attacked by smurf looking barbarians. Cass sat down ready to get captured by the smurf people and enter the boat.

As the two blue men got close to Credo, with the intensions of capture, he put both of his hand to the ground, and gathered as much sand he could with his fists. He threw his hands up as sand flew directly in front the two men. As he did this, Credo swiped his legs on the sandy ground resulting in more sand particles in their direction. Credo flipped backwards creating some distance between himself and the men. He reached into his belt and flicked open his 5 inch pocket knife.Why are you always doing stupid shit Credo.He thought to himself.

''You guys are a bunch of noobs,''said Tatsuya as he stares at the rope they had,''Your going to capture use with rope...but do any of you even know how to tie a knot.'' Tatsuya sticks his tongue out as he hopes these guys are dumb enough to fall for this trick and if not..at least he could maybe give the others time to think of something.

"Shit", Credo reeled back his arm and threw this knife Quickly and precisely at the eye of the man charging towards him. Credo noticing how unfazed they were decided to use his agility to get away from them. Credo bent down and jumped towards his left, reaching about 5 feet off the ground. He curled his legs together jumping over the mam that was coming from his left side. He hoped that at least they would run into eacother knocking themselves down.

Those two guys maybe, but this guy,..."Fine, I'll get on the boat." Credo said. He went on his knees for the second time and put ouit his hands together Signifying his surrender."Be gentle with the rope boys, I chafe easily", He said while smiling.

Declan remained silent and kept his head low as the men carted him off and onto the boat, but the entire time he had been shifting his eyes all around, analyzing the boat and the way the men kept it. From there, he began to run ideas through his head, but said not a word; he was so silent, in fact, that the men near him could feel it. It was unsettling to say the least, but nothing major.

Cylon woke up, chained to the ground. Not that smart huh? They chained our arms but not our wrists, our legs are semi-free, and they didn't take our belongings. I can break out, but seems like that isn't the best of ideas. His stomach growled -- he was still hungry. He looked around to see if any of the men were around.

Katz looked around, noticing Echo was to his left and Ravin was too his right, lowering his head and muttering to Echo so she could hear "Perhaps once night falls we try to break free and seize control of the ship" he said to her, looking at the ground.

Aegan was looking at his captures, while their build was much more bulky than his. The major traits seemed to be the same, blue-ish skin, pointy ears and some of them had white hair. He thought about it and decided to try something. "Hey, is this a way to treat a distant relative to you?" Aegan told the man who seemed to be in charge with a disgusted tone in his voice, while it wasn't entirely true the similarities were clearly there and hoped it would be enough to convince them somewhat.

Dreava's face hit the ground, the back of her head being held in place by Dormire's foot.
"To be fair, your situation in reality isn't that good at the moment." Dormire chuckled.
"Anything is preferable to this..." Dreava said, though her speech came out muffled.
"Silence, swine." Dormire pulled out her knife again and jabbed it into the back of the girl's neck. It was infused with dark energy to make the pain that much harder to bear. Dreava screamed in agony.
"LET ME OUT OF HERE I BEG OF YOU!" She cried. Dormire forced her down and kicked her in the face. Her nose stung and tears steamed from her eyes all the way down to her cheeks.
"Since when has begging ever worked on me?" Dormire stabbed the poor girl in the wrist and drove the blade down her forearm, inducing more pain.
Dreava wanted to faint from shock, but found that she couldn't. It wasn't possible to fall asleep when she was inside her mindscape; it had been one of the first things she had learned. Instead all she could do was cry and scream and hope that things would get better.
"Stop...stop it..." Dreava said, shaking violently, her breathing erratic.
Dormire smirked. "No." She kicked Dreava in the face again.
After more torture, Dreava awoke again, her actual eyes panning out into their glassy reality.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dreava awoke, groggy as usual. The pain was gone, but with it came the unrelenting desire to fall asleep again, held back only by fear of the pain that would come with it. She had been bound by the hands, but not the feet. An adept person would easily be able to break free. Dreava was not one of those people. She decided to play the part of "damsel in distress".

Yax, who was in a fighting position, decided to give up... "Victory over capture, capture over death" he thought of those words and gave up, letting himself be captured, yet he said "smurfs, you better not touch me" and put his hands firmly together for himself to get tied.

Meanwhile Alisae looked around her. She knew her big brother was on the ship, but she was nowhere close to him. This is when she began to cry. When she was close to her big brother, she would be extremely shy. When she was away from her big brother, she would cry like a cry baby. There was no middle ground.

"I want my big brother!" She began to whine and cry over and over again. Sure she would probably annoy the other prisoners, but she could not help herself.

Ravin looked around. He had no emotion, but internally he smirked. He could easily break out of here with his armor. However, he chose not to, as he needed to get the element of surprise. He heard the little girl crying and looked to Katz. He whispered, "Hey. Katz right? Better reassure your sister that you are around otherwise I think those pirate will get so annoyed with her that they would rather kill her than deal with it."

Humming softly to himself as he slowly tries to undo the ropes that bind his hands together. His eyes shift about trying to make sure that none of the guards notice his hands messing with the rope. Sweat falls from his head as he tries to figure out some way off this ship..or at least some way to take control of it.

Echo looked around at her surroundings, the darkness not affecting her thanks to the Sight. Despite that, the chains and shackles on her arms and guard blocking any escape certainly complicated things. She turned to Katz when he spoke, but just shook her head in response.

"It's highly unlikely we could. It would be worth a shot, but if we're just going somewhere, we'd be better off trying to escape when we get to where we're going." Echo whispered, giving Katz a reassuring nod to try and settle his worried conscience.

"Do not fret. We shall be fine." Of course, it was difficult to say that when Alisae began crying, and loudly nonetheless. Echo just sighed gently and tried to ignore it for now. Nothing she could do about it. Instead, she took quick glances to each of the prisoners, trying to figure out if she had talked to them all. She had, all except for two. One with strange variations within his aura concentrated in certain parts of his body, and strangely, aura that seemed dead despite it having an aura. He was... interesting, and frankly, occupied. So instead, she turned to the next one.

He was certainly quiet. That was the first thing she noticed. His aura barely wavered and was practically solid, the only fluctuations occurring in his movement. On top of that, his resolve was actually unnerving, and she felt a shiver run down her spine. Despite that, conversation would probably help relations in the end.

"You... the quiet one. I know you know who I mean. You haven't said anything up until now to any of us, not even given us a name. Who are you? I am Echo Caecus." Echo attempted to reach out for a handshake for a moment before her arms came short due to her restraints, and settled instead for a nod.

Declan continued analyzing the area in which they were locked up, then chuckled and shook his head, staring down. They didn't take his sword, and they expected them to stay put. Upon hearing Echo speak, he smiled and stared down at the ground.

"My name is Declan..." He whispered, before looking up and over at her. She would be able to read his aura a bit more clearly now, and it would seem familiar to her.

"...But you know me as Drake. Or as my cousin calls me, Karasu. Asuya told me all about you, Echo."
