I thought it would be cool, to have like, a section, where we could be our characters, and hang out, and create drama.... I'll start:

"She walked down the street, confident, but aloof, mightily, though as if on a cloud. She sat on a solitary park bench, in her red silk dress, and stiletto heels, when....

Mar-15-2006 15:00

Makensie and Charlie walk behind watching everyone, and Makensie's instincts kick in.

"I just got the weirdest feeling",Makensie says quietly. Charlie looks at her, and says, "Whats that?"

"It feels like we are being watched. I feel it so strongly",and she shivers.

Charlie smiles, and says, "Dont worry Mak, there is enough of us here. We will take care of whatever is going on. Frankly, Im confused"

Makensie says, "You're not lyin. I am too." and she laughs. Charlie says, "It will all become clear in time"

They walk along, and Lucian is looking to his right, as if he notices something. Or someone. Makensie sees him shrug, and keeps walking.

Then they hear a loud boom. So loud, we all duck.

Bad says, "Holy crap! What was THAT???"

Makensie says, "Look!!! Over there!!! It is......"

Mar-15-2006 16:14

...Manfred Gesling, the Priest!!" Makensie frowns as the garbed father walks towards the grumbling gang.

"What are you doing here, Father Manfred?" asks Crunchpatty.

The priest looks right and left nervously. "Should I say?"

Sunny, for the first time since fainting at the sight of Shadisius, steps forward. "Yeah, we know that your nephew is an infamous drunk who likes wasting his life in a lowdown bar."

Manfred bites his lip. "I think that his third sibling is...following me. Shadisius."

Lucian sniffles. "You don't say!"

Manfred nods stiffly. "Yes. I'm talking a stroll to clear my mind when I feel someone is watching me. Everywhere I go I get this feeling. When I heard you lot coming I hid behind some shrubbery. I thought you were...that Shadisius."

Charlie takes a drag off of his cigarette. "What was that boom?"

Manfred looks puzzled. "Boom?"

Isabel nods. "Didn't you hear a loud boom? Weren't you suspicious when we all ducked?"

Manfred sighs. "That would be a La Cosa Nostra hitman firing away with his Tommy Gun. They do it a lot around here. So much, in fact, I've gotten used to it."

Makensie nervously braves a laugh. "Can you tell us about your nephew and his siblings?"

Manfred shakes his head. "I've only met them once, and that was a long time ago. Shady, Shadette, and Shadisius all visited the church to ask me a favor. They wanted some money. I was curious and asked why. They refused to tell me. So I just handed them the cash.

Lucian crops his head up. "How much?"

Manfred thinks. "$15102"

Charlie puffs on his cigarette. "Interesting."

Manfred nods. "I must be on my way. If you need anymore help, please give me a call." Then he walked off.

Makensie grumbles. "We still have nothing about that dastardly Shadisius. What are we going---" she stopped.

Isabel looks aghast. "Someone is screaming!! It is......."

Mar-15-2006 16:33

coming from the direction that the Priest was walking.

Makensie grumbles, "What now? We are walking around like a chicken with their heads cut off"

They all rush to where they heard the scream but see nothing. Atleast not anything that is visible.

Bad starts looking behind bushes. Lucian says, "Dammit, what are you doing?" Bad says, "Well, you know, I'm just looking around. Alot more than u guys are doing. You all are just standing there dumbfounded" , and he sighs in frustration.

Crunchpatty says, "How about we split up in pairs?" Isabel says, "No way! Don't you know what usually happens? When people split up, bad things happen!" Bad smirks real cool, and says, "Don't worry peach, I will protect you"

Charlie smiles quietly and shakes his head.

Makensie says, for the first time in irritation, "Oh for goodness sakes, lets start walking, something!! I say all stick together tho. Oneof us may see something that the other doesn't"

Lucian says,"That is a real possibility" and looks at Bad, who was way too into Isabel.

Crunchpatty says, "If I walk like THIS, people will know Imean business and will start talking...or else" Makensie laughs quietly.

Lucian says, "Ok guys!! Where do we go first? We heard a scream in this vicinity. Now what?"

Ben shakes his head in thought, then notices an alley. "Over there, lets check that alley" Lucian says, "Good start! Lets go"

It was beginning to get dark so the alley looked even more dark, between the tall buildings.

Lucian's puppy started barking, making all of us jump. Bad about hollered, and as Isabel looked at him, he coolly blew it off and says, Well, you know, have to shake the nerves off every once in awhile, and holler out loud" She smiles in fascination.

Makensie says, "Ok Casanova, keep your ears and eyes peeled for the moment..." and playfully taps his arm.

Lucian slows down, and puts his finger to his mouth and says, "Shhhh, listen. You hear that?"

*more*

Mar-15-2006 16:36

The sound was coming from beside a big dumpster sitting along the alley. Bad looks at Isabel, and says, "Quick, give me your shoes." Sge says, "Huh?" Bad says, "The heel on that thing could knock any eye out. Take them off" Lucian slaps his hand to his forehead and says, "Oh brother"

As they walk up slowly,Bad has one stilleto shoe in his hand, holding it up in the air, as they creep up to this sound they are hearing.

They begin looking beside the dumpster, and there they find......

...Makensie's twin sister from southern Africa. Her name is Makunzu. She was sitting with one knee to the ground. It seemed she was struggling with someone or something. Oh, my gosh it's ....

Mar-16-2006 09:21

a shadow of a man!!

Makensie looked at her twin. "I never knew I had a twin sister!" she gasped.

Makunzu looked at her sister. "I neva knew I hadda sista eitha!" she whispered. "Neva, neva!"

Makensie giggled hysterically. "You talk funny. Weren't you brought up here?"

Makunzu looked puzzled. "I've been livin in Africa allma life!" she said. "We musta been seperated durin birth."

Makensie smiled. "Why did you come to New York?"

Makunzu shook her head. "I were lookin fer---"

Makensie's African sibling abruptly stopped as she toppled to the ground. A knife was bulging out of her back. The mystery man was already escaping.

Makensie gasped and looked at her sister. Bad, who was checking her pulse, shook his head.

"Sorry, Mak. She's...dead."

Makensie sniffed and brought down a few tears. Even though she was as confused as everyone else, she really wanted to get to know her African sister more. Her murder sparked a new life in her.

"Goddamn it!! Where is here? Where did he go?" she cried.

Isabel pointed to her right. "Oh, and Baddy, could I have my shoes back please? The ground is freezing."

BadAss obliged. In seconds they were already after the murderer. They had a sneaking suspicion that the killer was in fact Shadisius. But how could they prove it?

But, in real life, one can never jump to conclusions. The killer was not Shadisius. But Makensie refused to believe otherwise.

"I swear to God that bastard will suffer! That evil friggin piece of ungrateful shit!!" she cursed.

Just then, out of nowhere, someone grabbed Makensie by the shoulder. She let out a frightning scream. As she turned around she screamed again. Her attacker was..........

Mar-16-2006 11:58

Oliver Crumbwell the local police man who walks a beat here. As Makensie finally calms down she tells the cop what is going on.

"You alright Mak?" Charlie asks as he walks over to the body and begins to examine the scene. While searching he finds a note with the words

Mar-16-2006 12:10

(wow Bad, giving me quite a foul mouth there, calm down LOL ;))


"I'm coming for you" Makensie looks at Charlie, and says, "Wonder who "you" is? He stares in thought, and says, "I dontknow but we will find out sooner or later" Makensie says, "Sooner , rather than later, I hope"

As they walked toward the rest of the group, Makensie says, "I also dont believe that was my twin. I mean, look at ME, and look at her.....I'm not African, and I just dont buy that for one second" Charlie says, "I dont either, she looked more like Bad".....and they chuckled.

They all stand in a group, as Makensie hands them the note Charlie and her found, and Lucian says, "Ok.....we have to find out what that note means, and who "you" is, before we find out thehard way"

Bad says, "Right, now....lets go with Plan A" Lucian looks at him, and says, "What exactly is that,Bad?" Bad says, "Well, I dont know....that is what we have to come up with" The group chuckles quietly, and as they begin to make a plan, they see Shadisius, standing at the end of the alley.

Charlie says, "Look, over there..." and as well did, Shadisius says, with an evil laugh, "You won't figure this out, you all arent smart enough"

Crunchpatty says, "I ought to throw Isabel's shoe at him"

Everyone walked hastily down the alley, and Bad says, "Now what?"

Makensie ,who usually remains quiet , says, "I say we go talk to Shady at the bar"

So off they went, trying to figure things out.

A police car highballs it down the street, and there they see......

Mar-16-2006 15:14

A burning car. "Mob hit?" asks Charlie.

"No" says Lucian. "Another mysterious gift from Shadisius no doubt."

"But what can it mean?" asks Makensie.

"What ever it means that note has something to do with it lets get to bar and talk to Shady." says Charlie

As they start to walk off Charlie lights another cigarette. Bad heads towards the remains of the car with Crunchpatty to see if they can get any clues.

Once there they get the only clue they can. As the rest of the group walks up. Mak asks " What did you boys find?"

Bad answers.......

Mar-16-2006 16:20

...."it appears to be a note with some strange symbol on it".

Makensie can't control her nerves anymore and is ready to grab it from my hand. "Hush, dear"...I tried to calm her down. "Now is the time to remain cold-blooded, otherwise we'll never be able to find the murderer of your sister Makunzu".

Makensie sighs..."I know, it's just so horrible...., re-united after all these years and only had a chance to see here for...like a couple of minutes or so?"

Lucian gets a flashlight from under his raincoat and lights the mysterious note... Everybody gasps as it clearly shows a hand coming out of the earth as it was rooted into the sole. We all know what that means, it's....
