The Zombie Stabicorns and the Random Events [OPEN]

[Maeve]

Willie was already enjoying the thought of a good cold pint of beer, when he heard the werewolf spoke. Yeah, hookers and drugs didn't interest him much, but beer was something else. Something really really nice for a leprechaun... "Uhm," Willie said, trying to think of a good solution. "Maybe we should start by getting out of this clover field?"

[MelancholyMelody~]

Scharu sighed at the werewolf and strange little girl's disapproval of her suggestions. "Fine, what about just having a rave? Or a tea party? We could find a nice tree stump and some fancy hats? There could be some beer too, right? If we skip the hookers and drugs? I mean, as long as we drink responsibly and all that jazz we're fine, right? Right?"

She looked to Willie as he suggested they leave the clover field. "Yeah, this joint certainly sucks and blows if possible. Let's go back into the forest. Maybe we'll find some little woodland critters who can give us a blanket for a tablecloth or something."

[SasorizaKitty]

Argh seemed to think about the suggestion a while. "Well...maybe a tea party would be okay. But just tea for me! Alcohol makes me...act strangely." He shifted uncomfortably, but nodded in agreement at returning to the woods. He was getting a little hot out in the open clover fields anyways. Standing, he stretched in a very wolf-like fashion and turned, his bushy tail wagging high. "I know the perfect place! Follow me!" The werewolf grinned, glancing back to Lenny. Now that he knew she wasn't a spider, he was getting used to her riding on his back. "Hang on Lenny," he smiled as he headed into the woods at an easy lope, his fluffy black tail acting as a flag in the wind.

Willie was about to answer something when the werewolf talked again, and before he had a chance to say anything, the beast was jumping toward the forest. Willie quickly followed him, not wanting to lose is chance to make some money with the beast, or the little girly thing on its back. Unfortunately for Willie, he had short legs, so running after a werewolf was a long and painful process. Nevertheless, he followed the wolf, wondering where it was going to lead him.

[MelancholyMelody~]

Scharu raced along after Argh the wolf-man and little Lenny on his back, with Willie not too far behind. Eventually they reached a small clearing in the forest, a large tree stump sitting in the middle. It would make a perfect table. "Wow, this is awesome!" she exclaimed, walking over to it. "Now, where shall we get everything we need. Hmm, let me see."

Reaching into her little pocket she began searching for something they could use. "Aha!" she said, "Here we go!" and she pulled out a large tablecloth that she draped over the tree stump. She then fumbled around in her pocket once more before taking out a teapot, milk jug, sugar bowl, set of cups and saucers, several trays for food and a vase with flowers in it. "Now we just need the ingredients. I wonder." Scharu started to forage through her pocket again in case she had anything else stashed away.

[Weaseldale]

As Lenny watched Rainbow-lady take everything out of her pocket she heard her mumble about ingredients. She was sure she could remember something about ingredients... Oh yeah!!
"Hey! I have ingredients in my ship. It's parked in the next clearing over. Should we go get them?" Lenny questioned as she lifted her head off of Argh's.

[SasorizaKitty]

"Your ship?" Argh asked, craning his neck around to peer at the girl on his back. "Like...a boat?" He was confused. There weren't any oceans around...were there? Frowning, he looked at the set up that was being made, before sitting back on his haunches and scratching at an inch behind his ear, using a rear foot. Already he was getting tired again. A werewolf needed his beauty sleep! And he had awoken early. It wasn't even nightfall yet!

[MelancholyMelody~]

"Sounds like a good idea," Scharu said, answering Lenny. "How about you and um...this guy," she pointed to Argh, "go and get the ingredients? He looks like he could carry a lot of stuff. Meanwhile, Willie and I can make sure the area is safe from villainous creatures and clovers. Yeeees, yeees." She nodded and proceeded to walk around the edge of the clearing, occasionally shooting small bursts of flames from her fingertips at offending objects.

[SasorizaKitty]

Argh looked warily at Scharu. She seemed a little crazy, but maybe it was just him. Stretching out a bit, he was about to settle down for a nice nap when she mentioned him carrying stuff. "Well, uh...I'm actually not all that strong..." he tried to explain in vain. Sighing, his bushy tail lowered and he looked back at Lenny. "Which way?" Argh asked heavily, his ears drooping.

[Maeve]

Willie couldn't talk: he was too busy catching is breath. Leprechauns were not made to run! He placed his hand on the stump, resting against it while the others were discussing. When he heard Scharu talked about clearing the place from villainous creatures, Willie startled a little. Leprechauns were not made to run and fight! Though, as soon as he heard the word "clover", his fighting spirit came back, ready to kick anything. "Yes, yes..." he finally managed to say. "You two go find some ingredients, and we will clean the place from any danger." Seeing that the werewolf wasn't really agreeing, he added: "Unless you want to switch places? Be warned though, I've hear there's a rare breed of giant venomous viper that lives in this kind of place. They choose it because it looks nice and calm, and it is the perfect place for a tea party, and when little innocent creatures sit down... CLACK!" he made a little gesture with his arms, like if they were two giant jaws clapping together, "they eat you in one bite!" Though, what the others should have known is that a giant thing for a leprechaun was usually about two feet tall...

[MelancholyMelody~]

At the mention of the poisonous vipers Scharu exclaimed "I think I see one now!" She thrust her hands out and flames exploded from her palms. Of course this set the trees ahead of her on fire and it grew much faster and larger than she had anticipated.

She lowered her hands, then placed a hand to her chin, looking at the large ever growing fire pensively. "Hmm." She turned around slowly, placing her hands on her hips and looking at the others. "So...can anyone here put out fires?"

[SasorizaKitty]

Did they want to make him cry again? At the mention of the werewolf-eating snakes, Argh's red eyes filled with tears again and he began to shake and shiver violently, sniffling. "Don't let the snakes eat me!" He wailed and buried his muzzle under his front paws, sobbing.

The smell of smoke, however, made him glance up. He studied the fire through tearful eyes, and whimpered more. "I'm afraid of fire!" He cried as he backed up. Was there anything this werewolf wasn't afraid of? "Someone put it out!! It'll destroy everything! Including us!" In his dismay, he lifted his muzzle to the sky and howled long and clear, before going back to sobbing wildly.

[MelancholyMelody~]

"I'll take that...as a no." Scharu said, turning back to see the fire was significantly larger than it was when she last looked. She placed a hand to her chin again and thought hard. "Hmm..."

Eventually she shifted her gaze back to her new companions once more, simply stating. "Well, we're boned."

[Maeve]

Willie looked at the fire. It was growing rapidly, which wasn't really good for them. Too bad, Willie didn't have any water magic. Well, there was that old Leprechaun spell that was creating a fine rain to make rainbow, but that wouldn't do it. Willie sighed as the fire grew some more, soon reaching another tree. He started looking into one of his pocket, trying to find something useful.

[SasorizaKitty]

Argh finally had to spring into action as the fire got a little too close to his tail. He leapt to his paws, looking back to Lenny and then to the others. "Lets get out of here! There's a lake nearby with an island in the middle...we'll be safe there!" With a terrified whine, the werewolf took off away from the flames, his tail tucked low as he ran towards the lake.

He didn't bother to skid to a stop as they reached the lake, but instead just did a flying leap into the water. He hoped Lenny would hold on as he began to doggy paddle towards the island, holding his head above the water, the whites of his eyes showing in his fear. Struggling onto the shore, he shook his fur out, making it poof out as he turned to see if the others managed to follow.
