Black Forest - ...

[Sperrit]

FOR REAL! That would be so cool animated or in manga style, I'm getting shivers just THINKING about it! I'd say that one of the artists could do it, but they already have enough on their plate. Oh, but that would be so cool....

BLACK FOREST
Chapter 2

The next morning, Shino lifted his head from the table, yawned, and reached across to shake Sakura. "Wake up. It's time to get moving," he said, placing a box of strawberry pocky near her nose. He then tried to move his chair away from the table, but there seemed to be a weighty obstruction. Shino turned around to see Damion lying on the floor behind him, being smacked in the head by Shino's repeated attempts to move the chair. "Oh, sorry about that. Didn't realize you were there. Ummm…sleep well?" Shino said as his eyes searched the room, "Where is Rayne?" Giving up his search, Shino shrugged and walked over to the barkeep. "Do you guys sell breakfast foods?" Shino asked, thinking that there was no way this bar could possibly have food, aside from peanuts that are more salt than nut.
"Of course we do," replied the barkeep with a wink, "What would you like?"
"What do you have?"
"Well, we have 'Eggs, Bacon, and Spam', 'Eggs, Sausage, and Spam', 'Hotcakes and Spam', …"
…
..

..
…
"…'Spam, Spam, Spam, Sausage, and Spam', 'Spa-"
"Do you have anything without Spa-" Shino stopped and thought to himself, Why do I feel like I have heard this conversation before? "Nevermind, I'll have the 'Eggs, Sausage, and Spam." He turned to look at Sakura and Damion, both still groggily blinking at thin air, "Hey guys, I suggest getting something to eat before we go. We will leave shortly. Hopefully Rayne will show up."
Suddenly a portal opened up and out stepped Rayne, quickly turning to the barkeep to order "Spam, Spam, Spam, Sausage, and Spam." He then proceeded to scarf said meal in the space of about three minutes. Yelling to Shino, "I'm ready. Let's go," He left the pub to go lean against the outside wall and play with fire.
"…wzt?" says a groggy Damion, "…uhhhhhnnn…" He snorted, then mumbled to himself in muzzy half sleep, "spamspamspam…AHHHH!! SPAM!!! GET IT AWAY!!!" Now unfortunately awake, Damion felt the call of nature and dashed outside to relieve himself on the closest stationary object. Rayne, in great surprise, singed his fingers on the fire with which he was playing as wetness trickled down his pantleg. Damion then sighed happily and slouched back inside to talk to Shino, "OK! Now, where are we gonna go first?" Rayne, not wanting to start a fight with Damion and ruin his chances of finding more power, created another flame on his finger and let it float to the ground. As soon as the flame landed, A circle of flame erupted around Rayne, shooting up as high as Rayne's head and drying off Damion's waste fluids. Rayne walked further away from the entrance to the bar so it wouldn't happen again.
Finishing their breakfast, the team started on their journey, Rayne catching up on their way out. After crossing the Pocketo plains, Darkness again began to descend on the party.
"Does anyone know anything about this forest?" asked Shino.
A loud scream was heard and chills went down Shino's spine as it pierced his eardrums. The team carefully moved into the forest. Silence still reigned here. The trees were all dead. And again, less then one hundred yards into the forest, a noise could be heard, a crackling of branches and leaves. Suddenly, something jumped out from the brown, dead trees. It wasn't a CROUS.

TO BE CONTINUED…AGAIN…

Sorry if bit of this are not quite right, I was in a hurry. Mom was yelling at me "GET OFF THE COMPUTER NOW!!!" so I did my best to finish it now and not keep everyone in suspense any longer.

[Reverend]

It's a great refresher as to what it is that happened in the black forest, keep it up!

[Sperrit]

For real! I forgot about most of this stuff happening. So much has happened since. It's been developing quite nicely I'd say. Can't wait for the next chapter!

Reminds me of days I was trying to do that with a group fic ... I somewhat failed miserably and lost 3 hours of my life. Stupid Word98 crashed at work and I didn't feel like restarting it all over again.

I like the way it's presented, the second part doesn't look bad at all. Much better then what I did, as far as I can remember

BLACK FOREST
Chapter 3

It was a hideous thing, crazed with rage and fear and the pain of many wounds. It looked like a snake, only with wider proportions. When it saw the group, it stopped, wound its body into three concentric circles, raise its head, stared at Shino for a minute, then, with incredible speed, opened its mouth and spat a stream of acidic poison at him. Not realizing his peril and thinking that the stuff was just normal saliva, Shino held his ground. Then, at the last minute, he casually tried to swat the stuff away with his arm. He then smirked at the thing. Suddenly he smelled something, looked down, and noticed that, far from being free of the stuff, his gauntlet was being eaten by it! Quickly he ripped off his gauntlet and threw it hard at the snake thing, but, with snakish speed, it ducked and, uncoiling like a spring, launched itself at Shino with incredible speed. Shino smoothly stepped aside and left the thing flying directly at Rayne, who was behind him.
Unexpectedly, Sakura freaked out and threw at it the only thing that came to hand. An empty pocky box. She then started to complain, "I'm powerless with my bear's HEAD CUT OFF AT THE MOMENT!!"…It is here that I must interject that, due to outside interference, Sakura had gotten in a fight outside the bar the day before. The result of that fight had been Sakura running into the bar in tears, cradling her source of power, a small teddy bear which she called Pickle. Pickle had lost his head in that fight, leaving Sakura powerless.
Amazingly, the pocky box knocked the thing out of the air. It landed right side up, but that gave Rayne all the time he needed. With deadly precision, he swung his hand across his body, launching a crescent of energy five feet across at the thing. The snake jumped, but too late, and lost the bottom third of its body. The thing fell to the ground and started twitching.
"Ha! Take that, snake!!! Bwahahaha! I knew that box would help some. But of course, I'd be dead if Rayne wasn't here!" said Sakura with a proud smile for same.
Rayne, in his perpetual bad mood, just muttered, "Whatever…" and walked further into the forest. There, he leaned on a tree in the shadows, barely visible, and formed a dark ball of fire in his right hand.
Lews Therin, still testing the full range of his powers while inhabiting his son's body, concentrated. The thing was rent limb from limb with the speed of thought, spattering the rest of the party with gobs of snake. Curious, he walked over to Rayne, leaned against the tree, and tried to find out what fascinated Rayne so about dark balls of fire by producing one of his own and staring at it.
Shino, spattered with snake, wished for a handkerchief. When one was not forthcoming, he did the best he could with his hands. He then turned to Sakura and laid the two pieces of her bear on the ground, head touching body in the place where it should be. He then takes out his twin swords and pointed them at the small bear.
"SUPER SEWING STITCH…uhhh…POWER!!!" With astonishing speed and precision, Shino plunged his swords in sewing motions over, around, and through the bear's neck. When he finished, he put one of his swords on the bear's stomach and, without the proper medical "CLEAR!" shot a bolt of electricity into the bear. Mildly singed, the bear jumped up and hopped onto Sakura's shoulder.
Shino took some of Sakura's pocky and ate it, saying, "That move always drains me a little." Then something came over him that he could not define. "OOOOH SWEET HEAVENLY CHOCOLATE COVERED NECTOR OF THE GODS!!!" Astonished at himself, he looked at the other party members, receiving some very odd looks in return, and smiled weakly, "umm, sorry. Shall we continue?"
Giving each other confused looks, Rayne and Damion started to follow Shino further into the forest, when all three are held back by Sakura's shrill voice, "Yay!" She gave Shino a face-splitting smile, "Thanks!" She hugged him, then stopped, realizing that one should not jug other party members. She backed off, watching the others back off from her, thinking, They definitely don't want hugs…
Suddenly, the bear moveed its neck around, "It hurts!"
Giving it strange looks, Sakura asked, "But you're a bear. How can you feel that?" The bear shrugged. Ripping off some of her pocky box, Sakura wrapped it around her bear for a neck brace, "Better?" The bear smiled as it gnawed on some pocky. Sakura turned to the rest, and it hit her. "OH NO! SHINO!" She smiled brightly, walked over to him, and whispered in his ear, "You ate the Ex-Lax pocky." Then she backed far away and smiled.
