 9:54pm Forsyth Park

The recession had been hard on tourism as well as local businesses, however with the arrival of summer Savannah had gotten it's fill of visiters as the city while not as big as some other destinations was considerably cheaper and the spillover from visits of local colleges greatly helped as well. With the warm weather after a long cold winter, the Savannah Haunted Trolley tours had gotten an excellant crowd during the summer nights with the lack of sun cooling the coastal city considerably and the fact that there was an abundance of creepy destinations made it so that different routes could be taken to make the tours far more unique than other ghost specticals.

This particular night, the tour was given to a large party of maybe forty SCAD college students in the occult investigations club. Not only had they paid ahead of time for the longer tour route, they had also hired a local photographer to take pictures at the historic Forsyth Park before they were going to have a meal from some tables set up around the park and several dozen pizzas that were ready to be eaten. It was really one of the busier nights as it wasn't only the large party but several other tourists and some locals who had heard that some photography had been included for the package and seemed interested in the event. The park itself was exceptional well lit for the night time, the trees overhung with the spanish moss as the lit fountain hummed in the background over the stone walkways. The first batch from the tours wouldn't be coming around for another ten minutes or so, but everything was already ready to see that everyone had a good time.

 Tom fussed and fiddled with his camera, making sure the film was fitted correctly in the old, battered looking object. He had a few spare spools in his pocket, which he'd be using. He tended to take more pictures than necessary in case he messed up some of them accidentally.

He was dressed in a plain blue suit, a red tie flipped back over his shoulder so it wouldn't get in his way as he worked on his gear. A navy blue umbrella, not a cheap looking one either, was propped against a nearby bench, within arm's reach.

[User]
 Alacoque struggled to heft his messenger bag, his nose simultaneously buried in yet another book of the weird and wild he'd found buried in his shop. Pulling it out of the tome for a moment, he squinted at the nearly empty square, slightly abashed, and murmured to himself. "Early...huh, that's unusual."

He shrugged and looked around for a seat, mulling over precisely how he'd gotten here; hearing about this fascinating "Haunted Trolley Tour" from one of his customers (they even passed him a ticket in exchange for a discount; not that he minded, he did try and keep an open mind about that kind of thing), he'd decided it behooved him somewhat to pick up some of the local color. Quinn'd only been in town a few weeks, and he'd yet to really see any of Savannah's attractions.

The book-seller took another few steps towards a bench, amazingly managing to keep his feet from treading on the ends of his rather long scarf; he wore the usual outfit, a tweed jacket and brown slacks, with a waistcoat and white shirt underneath it, and a small chain hanging around his neck to beneath said shirt. Atop his head was a wide-brimmed brown fedora, perched on his somewhat frizzy hair; the whole ensemble gave a distinct feel of eccentricity or comfort, or perhaps both.

[User]
 Without even looking up, Tom simply said, "Sorry, sir, but would you mind finding another bench?" He fumbled with a length of film for a moment, before looking up at the man before him.  Wow. That's... an outfit, I guess?

Not quite looking the man in the eyes, but fixing his gaze on a spot on the man's left cheek, he explained, "I'm setting up my camera equipment here."

[User] If the cameraman's abruptness perturbed the somewhat oddly dressed fellow, he didn't show it; Alacoque simply smiled warmly at the fellow and nodded, traipsing over to another handy bench with a murmured apology. For a moment he rubbed one spot on his cheek, then checked his fingers for smudges or dirt. Spying nothing, he shrugged, reopening his book and sticking his nose into it yet again.

 Franchise Welts was about 5'6" in her short heels and a bit pudgey as she walked ahead leading the first group from the trolley that had returned. She wore a short sleeved blouse and khakis under the dark vest and pin with her name on it. She approached by walking backwards smiling as she rambled off facts about the park they were in and about the special part of the package that had been purchase. When the group she was leading dispersed, she headed straight to the photographer's bench not really taking a second glance at the man in the tweed jacket.
"Mr. Huntsman, do you need any more time for set up?"

[User]
 The man shook his head, before pulling a camera strap down and over it, and picking up his umbrella to hook over one arm. "No, I think that's everything." He gave a curt nod.

"So, take it we're ready to go, then?"

 "Sons of Lanowar! Of Kazandu! Of Talus! My brothers. I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. A day may come when the courage of Men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day. An hour of wolves and shattered shields when the Age of Men comes crashing down, but it is not this day! This day we fight! By all that you hold dear on this good earth, I bid you stand, Men of the West!
The Slivers come without number, and I know that many of you in the ranks fear their approach. I myself cannot guarnatee our victory. But I can give you this: If they come, and we should fall, then we will give them cause to remember us and shudder at our names.
And, if all is lost, then I promise you, WE WILL NOT GO QUIETLY INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT!"

 The Holy Scourge, a blight sent by The Gods themselves. The scourge grew rapidly, consuming all in the land. They even consumed the land itself. Soon there would be nothing in their wake, a blank slate, perfect for the God's Designs.

 As the vast detonation ripped through the lands, the men of the gathered armies paused, and cold fear ran through the ranks. All knew what had happened to their homes and families as if by some divine inspiriation.
But now they had no homes to run to, no option but to stand and face the divine scourge like men. And so, as one, they turned and faced hte onrushing hordes.
"HOLD THE LINE!"

Talus Paladin faces off against the SSinew Sliver, and Kazandu Blademaster takes out the Ward Sliver.

The other two get through.

 For Land and Country!

 Turn Synopsis:
 Life :  10

[User]
 The fight slowly ended. The slivers fell one by one against the blades fired by fury of the soldiers, and as night fell the battlefield was emptied.
The commander, having readied himself to die, slid off his horse. He was stained with blood and ichor, but his eyes were bright with elation.
 "We... Won. The Gods themselves marched against us... And we won. I... I had thought of fate like an iron lattice, intricate and unchangable... But now I see that our own will can bend those bars and save our lives. Men, it has been an honor... And I expect it to continue being an honor, even if we have to take this war until the very palaces of the divine. Six hours ago I bid you stand, now, for tonight, I bid you sit. Tonight we rest on the battlefield we won by blood and honor."

 A man in a World War I aviator's uniform saunters into the arena. He raises his goggles and gives his opponent a haughty smile.

 A gruff looking man in obsidian armour accented with emeralds enters the room.  Grhrm. I think not, boy. As a demigod, I have been in more wars than you've had birthdays.

 I play Reinforcement of the Army to fetch Kageki. I summon Legendary Six Samurai - Kageki, who drags Kagemusha of the Six Samurai with his effect, giving me four Bushido counters. I spend these to add a Kizan to my hand. I tune for Legendary Six Samurai - Shien, for two more Bushido Counters, and then I summon Kizan, for two more bushidoes. Not that it matters, for my monsters attack directly to end this duel. If your facedown responds, Shien shall just negate it. Anything left, upstart?

 I set three cards. Then, I summon Six Samurai - Kageki, whose effect drags out Six Samurai - Mizuho. I then special summon Six Samurai - Kizan by his own effect. Mizuho tributes Kageki to destroy Machina Fortress - you can look at my hand if you want, but its empty. My monsters then overpower Spell Reactor for 2200 damage. Responses?

 Surprisingly enough, it was your Spell Reactor I most feared.
 (1d34)[ 18 ]
 Grhrm. How ideal. I flip up my facedown Gateway of the Six. I special summon my newly drawn Legendary Six Samurai - Shinai. I tribute him to destroy Machina Fortress - again, I apologize, but there are no cards in my hand, until Shinai's effect resolves and adds Kageki back to my hand.  ((unsure about this bit, dunno exactly what order the discarding from Machina and the recovery from Shinai happens in. If this is wrong, feel free to set me straight.))  I summon Kageki, though I have no other Samurai to use his effect on - yet. I spend the now 4 Bushido counters on my Gateway to add a Kizan to my hand. I special summon him under his own power, and this gives me two bushido counters. I spend those to augment one Kizan by 500 points. My powerful Kizan destroys Cyber Dragon, and the rest of my monsters go direct. It seems the outcome generated is the same as last time, upstart.

((500 + 1600 + 1700 + 2100 = 5900 damage. If this isn't game-over, I'll edit my field/deck/hand/etc.))

The Red Baron walks huffily from the arena.

 DRAMATIS PERSONAE
 Teremis Drison, Neutral Once-Human Fighter , played by  Archdeacon GX
 Gunslinger, Lawful Neutral Steel Elf Arquebusier , played by  Bowerbird
 Mertil Skarlador, Steel Elf Artificer , played by  Tyrael

Dust whipped into the leather footwear and the crevices between clothing, blowing out within seconds but leaving behind uncomfortable granules of sand. The wind here seemed almost like a malicious spirit. It wasn't a gale or even a breeze. Its presence was too subtle to pick out as a truly present threat, but it was always there, poking and prodding and whipping dust into godsdamned everything.

 Spoiler

This wasn't an environment fit for steel elves. Their machinery had been crafted in a temperate clime, not in this land of dust and wind and shallow valleys. Teremis, their human escort, was having substantially less difficulty dealing with the dust then they. So they put their heads down, and walked.

[User] The Gunslinger grits his teeth at the dust, keeping his coat shut and his hat low.  He glances at his current companions, the fellow Steel Elf tinkerer, and the Mercenary.  Nobody had been particularly talkative so far, which suited him just fine.    I'll have to clean this ****ing dust out of my guns every day in this ****   he thinks to himself bitterly as they trudge on through the wasteland.

[User]
 Teremis stops atop a small hill and looks out over the land ahead, leaning on his spear like a large walking stick, his back somewhat hunched from the mutation brought on by the taint running through the veins of humankind. A grey cloak flutters about in the breeze behind him, as does the unkempt, dusty brown hair on his head. For a man in his mid-twenties, Teremis looks much older than he is, his brow wrinkled and his grey eyes dimly reflecting his grim demeanor. Surveying the area, he nods to himself and glances to the others, intoning with his strangely solemn voice, " We're making progress. It shouldn't be too much longer, I believe. "

 Spoiler
I'd make a Knowledge (Geography) or (Local) check, but Teremis doesn't have ranks in either of those.

[User] The travelers come upon a trail of footprints in the dust, small and shallow - the tracks of a gnome. They are still quite clear in the dust - the gnome must have just passed by in the past few minutes.

 Prologue: Graduation and Genin Test

This is the last day before the final test of the academy, where the genin hopefuls are all anxious to see if they can finally become full fledged ninjas. There was a lot of washouts along the years, some that simply couldn't mold chakra like others, some unfit physicaly to survive the harsh reality of shinobi life, and a few expeled from 'unfitting' behaviour, while other simply decided to quit.

One that  didn't  quit, however, is currently tied in front of the class. His name is Uzumaki Naruto, the notorious prankster of Konoha, finally caught after painting the Hokage Monument full of obscenities.

"That's it! If you think you're so good why don't you prove to me?" Said Umino Iruka, the class teacher, with barelly contained rage. "Surprise test ninjutsu test today, class! You have to change perfectly like your teacher, now!"

________________________________________________

On another part of the village, the Hokage tower stood proudly in the among the other buildings. There the village leader had a certain scroll on his hands, and was waiting for all the newly promoted Jonin to come. Yuuhi Kurenai arrived five minutes early, and the other still had some time before being officialy late.

[User]
 Jorou sat silently near the back of the class, eyes focused about six inches below the teacher's angry gaze. The Uzumaki boy tied up in front completely baffled him... everyone supposedly knew about him, even if Jorou wasn't quite sure  what  everyone was supposed to know about him, but the idea of seeking attention like that was alien to him. Attention was an obstacle to be avoided, a painful inconvenience, a spotlight on your flaws.

So he waited, as always, for someone else to make the first move.

[User] Aka no Fuyu sat in his chair witha manic almost unhinged grin on his face desperatly trying to hold back his gigiles at Uzumaki, not for the predicament he was in but what he had done.

[User]
 The teacher gave a order. Akisa slowly went through the visualization procedure and the handseals. Normally, they would be given some time to observe the target, but such a impromptu test with a familiar person known to them would be a probable scenario as a genin.

*poof*

It was perfect in every visual aspect except that Iruka was missing his characteristic scar across his face. A vague, shadowy line flickers in and out of existence across his face. Sadly, a instant giveaway.

Akisa sighs and pays attention to the prodigies. The problem was, she was so... average. No Jounin would ever pick him over the picks in this class. Ino-Shika-Cho. Hyuuga. Uchiha (the last one, too!). Arubame. Kiba. A lot of clan-brats with bloodlines. Who would pick him? She had the unfortunate position of always picked second-last. People tended to shy away from her for no reason that she could reason out. But of course...

At least she wasn't Naruto.

[User]
 Akisa was the first to test, and though she commited a mistake in performed the Henge, it was still good enough to warrant a pass, though Iruka did told her to train a bit more on chakra control and visualization exercises in the future.

Next was Haruno Sakura, and she performed the jutsu perfectly, down to minimal details. She received a nod and a perfect grade.

A few other kids went next, showing varying degrees of success but all of them receiving a passable grade, until it came Uzumaki's turn.

"Henge!"

If one would analyse it coldly and logically, it was a quite interesting transformation complete with a smart use of genjutsu, seduction skills and properly applied ninjutsu. The woman standing in front of class had perfect skin and was lightly tanned, giving a healthy impression, with smooth long hair in a twin pigtails, the voice was soft and melodious, even though the face was clearly feminine, few wouldn't recognize that face as at least being closely related to Naruto, even if you discount the whisker marks.

All in all, a very good transformation if  everything  was perfectly accurate. Unfortunately, most men (and a few women) didn't apreciated it at lenght or with many words, prefering the often tested method of offering their life blood as a tribute.

Through their nose.

"NARUTO!!! STOP DOING STUPID THINGS!"

After being properly grilled, it was the time for Jorou to perform the jutsu, and next it was Akafu, as half of the class called Aka no Fuyu.

[User]
 Fuyu jumps from his seat to perform the henge he takes a couple seconds looking at Iruka intently with his tounge poking out the side of his mouth but as quick as a flash he performs the henge.

Over all the henge looks perfect however something was ever so slightly off with it, over than Iruka's face looking rather strange with Fuyu's manic grin, it becomes apprent eventually, Fuyu had made a mirror image of him.

Sniggering as he let the image drop he sctaches the side of his face.

"Woops sorry there Sensei, got the image right, just the wrong way around."

Fuyu sasy as he goes back to his seat still grinning.

[User]
 Iruka simply shakes his head, but gives Fuyuu a passing grade, glad he wasn't pranked like Naruto did.

Some of the other students are sill laughing at his dressing down, with one or two still uncouncisous, and the girls being furious at Naruto, some by a completely different reason.
