Ch.1- Welcome “Guests” (con.)
As all the others woke up, including the animals, a platform started to descend to the ground. On the platform stood a man who looked like he was having the time of his life, a woman in a yellow dress holding a clipboard barely showing any emotion, and two chibis, one male the other female, holding hands.
“Hello everybody,” said Catastrophy.
“Hello Dr. Nick,” said everybody who had ever seen an episode of the Simpsons that featured Dr. Nick.
All the people on the platform, except for the woman and Catastrophy, laughed hysterically at the response.
“I told you to go with the other welcome,” said the woman in an expressionless tone that everyone could instinctually tell was a “I told you so” voice.
“Okay I’ll use the other welcome,” Catastrophy said knowing perfectly well she was right, “Greetings everyone and welcome to the Twilight Palace,” he said with an eccentric bow.
Everyone was muttering to each other and just ignored him, it seemed as though they couldn’t believe that he was the one who brought them there.
“Will everyone pleas listen to me,” he asked in a polite tone, but no one did so he said, “All of you better f******* listen to me or all of you are just going to die in this room and not get the chance to get one thing that you desire!”
That shut everyone up because they all wanted something and knew they couldn’t achieve it easily so they all stared and listened.
“That’s better. Now you have all been brought here to compete in a large scale contest set within this castle. The goal of this contest is to not get knocked out by random events or other players,” as he said this lighting flashed near the ceiling, “Hm…. Seems like the random weather generator, or R.W.G., turned on using it’s stored up power.”
Everyone was looking up at the ceiling wondering if it would rain since the giant bonfires were their only source of light. Then suddenly, a giant fire balls started falling from the storm clouds and hit two contestants burning them to a crisp.
“Wow. When I ordered this thing it said nothing about it raining fire.”
“Sir, the box did have a warning label that said it would not rain if there was fire in the room that it was set up in,” said Nocturne, the male chibi.
“Yes I know that Nocturne even Luna, Enzio, and Catarina told me about that but it said nothing about giant fireballs,” Catastrophy said with a tone of irritation, “Now we have to give everyone numbers, find out who they were, bring them back as my servants, tell everyone the rules, and set out the contestants.”
To be cont.
