"I watch the morning dawn upon your skin
A splinter in the light
It caught and frayed the very heart of us
It's been hiding there inside for all this time
How a sure thing winds up just like this
Clockwork silence only knows

Sweeping eggshells still at 3 A.M.
We're trying far too hard
The tattered thought balloons above our heads
Sinking in the weight of all we need to say
Why's and what if's have since long played out
Left us short on happy endings

You know that there's so much more

And it's no one's fault
There's no black and white
Only you and me
On our final night
And as the hours run away
With another life
Oh, darling can't you see
It's now or never
It's now or never"
-Now or Never Josh Groban

The newly formed group have their first dilemma. Dianne Ward appears to have gone missing. Their mission is a simple one: Go to Castle Ward and find Dianne. However, things are rarely as easy as they sound.

((This one opens up in Dianne's Castle. It appears to be in a bit of a crumbling mess. All of Fallen Angel's characters are in this one. If you want to join in, send me a bio.))

Zane looked around the crumbling castle, "Looks like Dianne hasn't cleaned in a while."

Guest

((Does that mean I'm already in or do I need to send a bio.))

Subject: Re: Vampire Diary Ch 2: Now or Never Wed May 20, 2009 8:06 pm

((You are already in.))

Guest

Adrian followed Zane in. "Yeah... really... gothic." He stated.
Nathan walked inside, keeping low to the ground. "I know that crazy lady is going to jump out from somewhere and pounce on me...." He said.

Subject: Re: Vampire Diary Ch 2: Now or Never Wed May 20, 2009 8:14 pm

"She's only mostly crazy." Bella said simply, "And she doesn't jump anywhere. Besides," She continued, "Dianne usually keeps a clean household. Something is really wrong here."

Guest

"Wouldn't know," Adrian began. "Never met her."
Nathan, on the other hand, looked somewhat scared. "She'd do it to get me. She hates me. I think she's racist."

"Against what?" Riot snorted, Kalvin trying to concentrate on her thoughts to find her.

Guest

"Werewolves. Duh. What'd you think I was? A zombie?" Nathan said.

Subject: Re: Vampire Diary Ch 2: Now or Never Wed May 20, 2009 8:29 pm

"Um, yea." Riot laughed.
"Shh!" Kalvin snapped, "I'm trying to concentrate."

Guest

Nathan opened his mouth to reply before Kalvin quieted him.
Adrian laughed. "Don't let him shush you, Fido."

Subject: Re: Vampire Diary Ch 2: Now or Never Wed May 20, 2009 8:34 pm

Kalvin looked up, "There aren't any thoughts here but ours. This place is empty."

Guest

"She's not here?" Nathan asked.
"It smells empty." Adrian said, taking in the air.

Subject: Re: Vampire Diary Ch 2: Now or Never Wed May 20, 2009 8:39 pm

Kalvin shushed them again, "I'm trying to see how long it's been since she was here."

Guest

"Don't shush me." Adrian stated.

Subject: Re: Vampire Diary Ch 2: Now or Never Wed May 20, 2009 8:40 pm

Riot laughed, "He's a bit forceful, isn't he?"

Guest

"You'd be amazed." Nathan said.
"Both of you. Shush." Adrian spat.

Guest

Jason sniffed the air in wolf form. if you're looking for a time frame it's been between two to five days since she's been here" he said after turning back to human form. "is this castle always so destroyed?" he asked.

Subject: Re: Vampire Diary Ch 2: Now or Never Wed May 20, 2009 10:38 pm

"No, it was fine when I left." Bella said curiously.
Kalvin shook his head, walking forward, "No... not five days..." He paused, continuing walking, "She never left."

Guest

"You mean she's...." Nathan began.
"Dead?" Adrian said, finishing the sentence.

Guest

Jason sniffed the air again in a new spot. "you're right. i think she's been trying to hide her scent. did a good job of it" he said.

Before Kalvin had a chance to say anything, a swarm of bat-like demons came out of nowhere, all but blinding the members of the group. When the swarm cleared, they were in different places around or in the castle, separated into groups of two.
((I have these groups planned out. Adrian is with Kalvin. Zane is with Kyira. Nathan is with Bella. And Jason is with Riot.))

Guest

((Poor Jason. And Bella. And Kalvin.))
"What the f***?!" Adrian shouted as he swatted at the flying demons after they began to dispurse. "Hello...?" He said, looking around.

Guest

Jason rubbed his eyes. "of course i get stuck with the walking mouth" he muttered. "bug me too much and i will find a way to shut you up i garuntee you won't like" he said annoyed.

"I'm right here. You don't have to shout." Kalvin sighed. He and Adrian appeared to be in the forest outside Dianne's mansion.

Riot waved his hands, "Ooh! I'm so scared!" He said sarcastically. They seemed to be in a tower of some kind.

Bella looked around, after uncovering her eyes. She saw Nathan and sighed. Well, might as well make the most of it. On the plus side, she knew where they were. They were in Dianne's room on the end of the mansion facing the cliff.

Zane looked over to Kyira, "Looks like it's just you and me." They were also out in the forest.
