Day 1, part 1.

you breathe in the fresh air. you open your eyes and see a crowd of CBers and AEs around you. a looming forest towers over you, golden light filtering though the leaves, casting a summery chartreuse light on everything. the occasional butterfly or exotic bird flies through the branches, rubies and sapphires and emeralds flashing on their wings.

"hello, friends!" a bright voice calls. "welcome to the Waving Tail resort. I look forward to having fun here, and I hope you do, too!" a... cat steps onto a large tree trunk in front of the crowd. her dappled brown coat seems to shine, and her turquoise eyes are shining with exitement.

the cat was slightly disconcerting, as she was as big as a horse.

the cat smiled. "I'm Felis, by the way. now, who's ready?" 

a cheer erupts from the crowd, mostly AEs acting hyper (as usual)

Felis grinned and leapt into the forest. "follow meeeee!" she called. you shout and run after her, as does all the other CBers and AEs. 

soon, you come to a huge domed building. it glitters and shines, iridescent purple and blue and gold, like a soap bubble.

Felis bounded in front of it and stopped. "this is the lodge, where you all will sleep, eat, hang out, ec cetra. who wants to go in first?" she said.

you step up, and a door opens. you step into the round hole, and glittering light covers you...

Day 1, part 2.

"I'm going to give y'all some time to hang out and explore this place. feel free to go anywhere, do anything. just don't go into the blue door in the basement. anything else, go for it!" Felis said. "any questions?"

"can I ask a question?" asked Darkvine.

"you just did." Felis replied with a smile. 

Darkvine facepalmed. "anyway, are you sure that this resort is completely safe?" she said.

Felis hesitated. "99 percent sure. but what's fun without a little danger?"

the AEs all cheered, as well as Darkling. "hear, hear!" they shouted.

Felis smiled. "well, I'm off to make some final preparations. farewell!" she said, walking off.

Darkling rubbed their hands together with an evil grin. "now, what to do first?" they said. 

Silver Crystal, Darkvine, and LunaWolf were chatting about dragons and art. Jedi, Periwinkle, and pangolin were playing Hangman with a whiteboard they all found somewhere. by now, most of the AEs had run off, where, no one knew. they were AEs, after all. 

"I'm not scared of the dark," Darkvine boasted. 

"me neither!" Darkling said. "I iz a creature of the dark!" they said.

"is there any chance you're an AE?" Avara asked.

"nope." Darkling said with a manic grin.

"well, I'm not scared of the dark." Reuby hissed.

"let's have a competition!" Darkling said. "Felis said there was a basement, right? I'll bet it's dark. let's go to the basement, turn off the lights, and we all go down there. whoever manages to not get creeped out wins!"

"I'll DEFINETLY win. I like the dark." Darkvine said.

"no way. I will be the champion!" Writing stepped in. "now, let's find that basement!"

Darkvine, Reuby, Writing, and Darkling all stampeded off to find a basement.

Periwinkle sighed. "you would think they were AEs." she muttered. 

soon, the four CBers found a door, midnight black with the word BASEMENT over it, on a shiny gold plaque. Reuby grinned and pulled the door open.

a hole of pure blackness greeted them.

"well, who goes in first?" Darkvine said.

Darkling pushed in front of her. "me." they said, stepping into the basement. soon, they were out of sight.

the other CBers descended as well. Darkvine shivered. it was slightly cold and damp in the basement.

she found a small corner and curled up in it, silent.

after a while, someone, possibly Darkling, called, "anyone scared yet?"

"no!" three voices called back. 

a long pause.

"anyone scared now?" Darkling said again.

this time, only two voices called back, "no." 

"well, I guess it's just the three of us!"

eventually, Darkling got bored and began to walk around. 

soon, their foot brushed against something soft. 

they switched on their flashlight.

laying on the ground, smeared with blood, was Darkvine.

WAIT A DEATH ALREADY--???

:00

Does this mean one of us 3 is/are the murderer?? Or it could be an AE, one of the ones that ran off... hmm...

(Also, I love that I've become a CBer that "could be an AE"; that is the highest honor anyone could bestow upon me. Thank you <33)

Oh, and I just saw your comment on my entry form: I prefer fae/faer, but only slightly, and it's typically easier to people to use she/they, so just use whichever one's easiest! And sorry for the late response, I didn't see it until today. :)
