Tristan looked away disgustedly, the girl looked about to be his age, "I don't like this…"
I'm bored so...Character Chat!
Anna finally broke her gaze away, and stumbled back. Then she yelped when she tripped into something-a huge black box. It was completely smooth, with no lid or latches of any kind. It was just a giant square of black material.

Tessa was strangely unruffled by the sight of the body, but she did look away–to look for more. "They pulled out their kills to send some sort of message. To show their power over us?"
group
(I started a character chat with Tess and I'm lonely. Anyone mind joining?)
(Where is it?)
group
(It's called Shadow City)
(What's sad is that most of us have been on and commenting on it. I'm back here now, though.)
(Also, the box is going to be the magic pulling thing, so it's like a magnet in the middle of the arena to pull the magic into it. It's about big enough to be a small house.)
Anna walked around the box. There was nothing on it, so why was it there?
Enderstorm finally awoke, this time much calmer than before. She slowly stood and stretched her wings out, groaning.
Anna walked back over to the group. "Guys, there's a giant cube over in the middle of the arena, where Tess found the bodies." She was still a little in shock from the sight of the bodies, really not sure how she felt about them.
Tristan looked to Anna, “Show me!” He said going up to her.
She nodded, leading the way back to the huge box. "I really don't get what it is. There's no doorway, no button, no latch, no nothing. It's just a giant mass of black, I can't even tell if it's metal or plastic or something else." She tapped it slowly, checking it for any tripwires. There was nothing, and she tapped it harder. Not thinking, she pulled back and slammed her shoulder into it as hard as she could, before yelping in pain. "It's surprisingly strong, actually!"
Enderstorm walked over to the black cube, cracked her neck and shoulders, extended her wings for a boost, and slammed into the box with all her might. She barely dented it.
(It's going to pull her magic, so within about two minute she should start feeling the effects.)
Anna sighed, kicking with her foot while she held her shoulder. "Why. It just doesn't make any sense, why is it even here?"
(my mind is planning, and what if all the data they've collected has all been to create a bomb aka the box that won't work until it's pulled in enough magic, and then it can destroy the magical beings too weak to get away. It will destroy all evidence of their tests and lab, leaving them with a clean slate and the results of their research, since they've already left)
Enderstorm rubbed her shoulder with a claw.
“Ow. That really hurts.” She grimaces.
Anna cocked her head. "You ran into a wall. Of course it hurts." She was still rubbing her own shoulder, and she hadn't hit it nearly as hard as Enderstorm had.
Tristan didn’t bother touching it, he just threw pebbles at it, obviously confused.
group
Tess glared at it hatefully, summoning some fire and chucking the fireball at it. It did nothing. "Well then."
"So, dead bodies, and a giant box. Just more weird stuff, but I guess the last couple days have been crazy weird already." Anna said, deciding to ignore the box for now.
Enderstorm slumped onto the ground, suddenly feeling weak.
Tristan rushes to her, confused, “Are you okay?!”
Anna turned to her as well, kneeling next to her. "Are you going to start bleeding again?" She saw no blood, but didn't want to risk it.
“I’m fine. I just…don’t feel so great right now.” Enderstorm coughed, but luckily no blood was coughed up, meaning she probably wasn’t going to have another bleeding fit.
Anna relaxed slightly. "That's weird. Do you want to try to get some more sleep, maybe water or food?"
“Food would be good. I haven’t eaten in…well, since the trials began.” Enderstorm tucked her snout under her wing, closing her eyes and taking deep breaths.
(We have officially reached 100 pages in this chat! That’s the longest any RP I’ve been in has gone on for! Insert victory screech)
(Yayyy)
(Yeah! I'm so proud of this chat…)
Anna looked around for something edible. If only they'd eaten that one deer…
Anna grinned at him. "Danny, you're amazing." She said, sitting back.
