Fwee!

It's ok.

*bump*

Thank you! We shall begin shortly, if anyone wants to open up they can, otherwise I'll post within the hour.

EDIT:

Ada walked with her friend through the forest, as was custom for them on hot summer afternoons. They laughed and chatted about inconsequential things, like what the current reality TV shows were about, the latest console games and the best colour nail varnish to put with combat trousers. Someone heard a noise, almost like a faint vacuum and a tiny tinkling sound.
"What's that?" Someone asked, puzzled.
"I don't know, probably nothing." Another replied.
Ada let her hand slip from Roxas' and she moved towards the source of the strange noise - a large blooming rhododendrons . She pushed back a branch of violent-blue flowers and gasped at the sight before her. There was a tall stone arch, engraved with swirls and other fancy patterns.
"It looks like something from Spyro." Someone said in an undertone.
Indeed it did, the swirling blue, glittering surface of the portal seemed unreal. It was almost like water.

Megan dropped her bags and rubbed her aching shoulders. She hadn't been able to decide what all to bring, and so had decided to pack all of it. Airport security had proved tricky at times, but now standing in the entryway of Ada's house Megan was fervently glad that she had brought it all. She lived farthest away from Ada as any of them.

"They're out walking, Megan - leave your things, I'll put them in Ada's room." This was her friend's mom, from the kitchen. With a backwards call of "Thank you!" Megan rushed out, now carrying nothing but her little camera case on its strap.

It took a few minutes, but eventually - with leaves in her hair and burrs already clinging to her jeans - Megan pinpointed voices and rushed down the path she'd been following, tripping slightly over protruding roots.

"I'm here, I'm here, the flight was late and mum forgot her credit card and - " Megan broke off, breathless, and looked in surprise at what the rest of them were looking at. "You should have waited for me! What's that?"

Fantasia shruged and lowered her eyes. She never spoke unless she absolutly had to. She stood near the back of the group stareing at the portal.

A sudden sence of curiosity caused her to step forward. She studied the markings for a moment thinking about all the games she had played where such things existed. She extended a hand and brushed her fingers across the shimmering blue serface watching as silver spirals dances across the surface befor stepping back her curiosity satisfied for the moment.

Ada's head whipped around, "Go through it? Are you mad? We don't know what it's made or what will happen if we do go through it." She looked at the others, "What do you think of it?"

Josh watched at the arch with his hands in his pockets of his jeans and shrugged. "It doesn't look dangerous to me.." He said Hi to Megan when she arrived, stared at the ground and then at the portal which somehow attracted him. "Lets go through.." he said, but added quickly while he glanced at Ada: "We don't have to go if you don't want to"

OoC. bump

Here is my changed Bio:

Name: Keira
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Emotion: Hate
Race: Human
Looks/Picture: http://www.keirapictures.com/albums/Mis ... 761184.jpg
Personality: Keira is quiet and intellectual. This rubs off the wrong way on people, but really she is just incredibly shy. She is somewhat bitter of her different lifestyle growing up. She is considerate and kind to her friends, but sarcastic to her enemies
History: At an early age (3) both her parents died and left her in the care of her 16 year old sister and her strict grandmother. She was forced to grow up (5 years) in an enviroment that taught her not only gossip but that they were better than everyone else. When her grandmother died when keira was 8, her sister inhierited the house and Keira and her sister lived there for 9 years-until now where she was transported into Zokoi.

-----

Keira eyed the arch, "I'm up for going through. What could happen?"
She looked at all her friends, they needed some sort of adventure, they deserved it. Keira placed her hands on her bony hips; she wasn't entirely dressed for an adventure, in skinny jeans, sandals, and tank with a fitted vest, but still, if she could escape her close to maniac sister, she would do it.

Ada looked at everyone, they all seemed keen to go through and she had also begun to wonder what was through there. She sighed, "Well alright then, but if we don't like what we see I think we should come back. We have no idea what's behind or through there."

Fwee!

Fantasia watched the others her now fearful nature beginning to rise. Go through the protal... what if it closes behing us and we CAN'T get back! Her mind screamed. She pushed it from her mind and shrugged her shoulders noncommitally. She would go if the others did.

Megan glanced sidelong at her friends around her. Their mood was unusually edgy, and she waited out an uncomfortable silence before hesitantly stepping towards the portal. It looked solid enough. The ornate wooden frame appeared sturdy. She reached for the blue swirls, fingers brushing the luminous surface, and watched as her touch disturbed the current. Upon timidly pushing her entire hand through, Megan experienced a curious sensation - as if she were reaching through a waterfall as thin or thinner than the most delicate sheet of paper, just an opaque curtain flowing over her hand in cool waves if it was anything at all.

That's probably what it is, and you'll just come out on the other side, she told herself with a twinge of disappointment, but not entirely without a certain excitement. "It doesn't feel dangerous," she reported, turning around. "But won't we just come out on the other side?"

_________________

Ada went around the other side of the portal which was identical to the other. "Put your hand through again." She said to Megan, who did so. "It doesn't come through the other side, so you must be going somewhere else." She looked at the others, "Well there's no point waiting, if you want to go through, explore and get back before dark we want to get going."

"Make happy those who are near, and those who are far will come."

Fwee!

"But it can't be real!" protested Megan wonderingly, watching white and blue swirls divert themselves to flow around her fingers in luminous spirals. "It's just - it can't be..." she trailed off, stepping back. She couldn't deny she wanted to go through as much as the rest of them - but if it was dangerous? "Maybe...maybe some of us should stay," she said uncertainly. "Just in case...something happens?"

The suggestion fell flat and Megan abandoned it even within herself. Which of them would voluntarily stay behind with such an opportunity before them?

Fantasia in one of her rare moments spoke, "Well? The question is ... who's going first?" She looked around at the other people gathered there and took a step back as if to say "And don't think it's gonna be me."
