The Dark Tavern

"What? No!" She said a little too quickly, blushing lightly and backing away as if offended.

"I know. I say you do it in my head. I can't explain more, but I did," said Hedi as she gave Hoshi an embarrased look.

"You're wierd," She said dully, staring at her sister with an amused look on her pale, thin face.

<<since i'm going to try to join this game over the winter break, which is this weekend, could someone please inform me of the plot so far and who are the members who have signed up for this game so far?>>

((Guardian_Rikku and I, Summoner_Yunie, are the only people playing so far. The plot is that our characters, Hoshi and Hedi, are currently remebering their pasts)

"Well, you do some weird stuff, too, Hosgi," said Hedi as she picked up her teddy bear. It began to glow eerily.

"Whatever,"

*fast forward to them being 16*

Hoshi stood amoungst her group of other girls and boys, chatting. They all shared a cigarette between the 6 of them; it was too risky to have too many on school grounds. Not that hoshi cared. This was why she offered to supply the cigarettes; her parents were rich anyways so it didnt matter. She just used a bit of the extra money her mother gave her a week to buy them at a liquer store. She herself didnt smoke much, she knew her sister would indeed tattle if she sniffed smoke in her breath of on her clothes.

The bell rang signalling the start of school, but Hoshi and a boy in her 'group' stayed back. They were ditching. Again. They slinked by Hedi, not noticing her. But she noticed them. Wasn't hard to, all black and, in Hoshi's case, black AND bright pink.

<<hmm...shall i play a male or female character? let me know than i can select one from a huge list of original characters that i had created in the past.>>

"Hoshi, where do you think you're going?" asked Hedi as she planted her hands on her hips. The school bell rang over her head.

"Nothin," she replied, shrugging.

"You were ditching again, weren't you?" asked Hedi.

"Not 'were', Hedi, AM," She said shortly, and began walking off to catch up with the boy.

"Hoshi, how can you do this? You'll so regret it later!" Hedi called to her sister's retreating back. Hedi hurried into the school with a tear in her eye.

"Kay," She muttered, lighting another cigarette. Hedi's words did sting, but she didnt let it show. She only kept walking.

-=Um, after school?=-

Hoshi awaited Hedi to show up. She knew she had to drive them home so it seemed like she had been in school. So Hoshi sat in the sleek red convertable, hand drumming on the wheel, radio blasting.

Hedi ripped open the car door and slid into the leather seat. "Let's go," she said. Her eyes were cast downward and her shoulders slumped.

Hoshi nodded and drove them toward home.

They pulled into the driveway and Hedi dashed out of the car. "Hey honey! How was your day?" asked her mother as she put down the plate that she had been drying moments before. "Did it go well?"

Hoshi walked in more slowly, not bothering to ask Hedi's problem in front of their mother. She sat down and stretched. "Oh, busy," She lied. "My. Gionni gave us so many notes to copy," She added, then made her way to the piano.

"It went fine," said Hedi with one of her well played smiles. She trudged up to her room and dumped her backpack onto the floor next to her bed. She hugged her pillow close and began to cry.

Hoshi rolled her eyes. She could hear Hedi crying. She did not know exactly how she heard her sister over the piano. Her mother didnt. "Sissy," she muttered under her breath. "What dear?" their mother asked, looking up from the mail. "Oh...nothing..."

"What do you want?" snapped back Hedi to her sister in their thought speech, that only they possesed. "Are you going to drive me crazy more than I already am?" She slammed one of her spare school books into the wall. "Just leave me alone!" With that she began to shiver and sob.

(((May I join? If so vould someone PM me and tell me what's going on and how I can jump in?)))

((I will))

Hoshi's eyes snapped open from her past. She didnt exactly want to keep going, soon would be when she and her sister died and became what they are.
