Nowhere at allSure, Jithkeeper!

Before I know it, the water is getting darker by the second and Vicky is tugging on my arm.
”Polis, it’s getting dark. We should go,” she says softly.
”Awww,” I grumble, but I get up and follow her back to camp.
After an unappealing dinner of white stuff, Vicky’s mom herds us off to bed, insisting that we need our sleep for our busy day tomorrow. But I can’t sleep. Scales, I’m so excited! I wonder what the other tribes and the serpents will be like!
After a long, sleepless night, the water lightens again and it’s time to go.

This post is a bit short, but I wanted to hurry the story along.

Ella StarburstParticipantHey Summer! Did you know that in Greece, a Polis is a city-state! Pretty cool, eh?
-
SummerParticipantpi
Nowhere at allWow, I didn't know that! That is pretty cool!
<thpo>
Autumn didn't know that, either!

Ella StarburstParticipantso much for hurrying it along! I had no idea people were waitng for me to make the next move, I was waiting for Rogue!
Anyway…
*******************************************************************************
I packed up my things in my stuff-holder. Me and Ashva met a few times after pour first meeting. I even showed him my hiding spot: he was pretty amazed. What can I say? I've been working on it for a while. It was heartbreaking to leave it behind, but I kept some things; the syrup, the necklace, and a few others. We agreed to meet once more before the journey, at my place.
I swam out, careful not to wake mom. I creep quietly through the dark water, watching all over everywhere, before losing my nerve entirely and swimming off rapidly. As a result, I bump into a black-scaled girl whom I haven't seen before. I am frightened by her spears and apoligize immediately.
"Sorry," I respond frantically, " I wasn't watching where I was going… Um, who are you?"
-
TopParticipantUm, Serpent isn't anywhere near the surface at the moment, and definitely not close to the village. I'll do her intro, just have all charries looking for the Serpents in a group and about two 'days' out.
-
Ella StarburstParticipantwoops! Sorry, forget my whole storyline. I can't post right now, cause I'm doing homework, but I'll make sure to correct it!

Bop to the TOP!!ParticipantROGUE!! WHERE ARE YOU?!
-
Topping Topking!ParticipantI could post if needed, have Kaifu drag Odash to some area where they joke around until they're called to the group for them to set out, or just have everyone gather around a specific area to get them on their journey and to get them acquainted.
The choice is yours SpiffJith

@SpiffJithParticipant -
JithkeeperParticipantThe choice is yours Topking
(hey this might go on forever)

Rogue WildlingParticipantWHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME
-
Jith@Rogue, DarkkingParticipant@Roguey (heh heh) just wondering when you will introduce Serpent
Do ya need me to make Ashva do somethin first or somethin?@Darkking I said the choice was yours but I do want someone to like, make all the peeps who are going meet and take off.
-
Rogue WildlingParticipantI just need all of the serpent seekers to get out of their little town, a day or so of a timeskip, and I can set up Serpent meeting them fir the first time.

DarkkingParticipantWho knows?
A dimension.My idea is to have everyone called to one place buy their chieftans and after introductions they set off.
Kaifu~
I swim around Odash and demonstrate a new move that I picked up by watching the landwellers. Swimming quicklty I spiral down to the depths, then I give a mighty push up and launch myself out of the water, flipping once, twice, thrice, in the sun before splashing back into the water and spinning around Odash. He opens his mouth to say something but a merfolk comes behind him and states something that has him turn around.
"Odash of the Kholet and Kaifu of the Kexlae, you have been summoned to the Cavern to advance on your mission."
Odash nods at the messenger and we swim to the Cavern, but before we enter pulls me gently to the side and states in a reassuring voice "You'll do fine," I look at him worridly and he continues "besides, I'll be with you if things go badly."
I nod, greateful as I step into that crowded room and take a seat at one of the chairs labled Kexlae.
~~~
That's a start! I'll try to post Odash's view later but

Clutching my spear of iron, I enter the cavern where we are to receive General Instructions. It is known as the Chamber of the Five, because it is the only place where all the tribe members can meet in peace. It is not used nearly enough, I think.
I seat myself in a chair prepared for me, looking at the others' faces, illuminated by the dim light coming from the white-stuff lamps.
~~~
Different types of whitestuff serve as different things, though all are edible. They are all kind of sweet though some are more sour. Some types glow and are used as lamps, some are clothing (unfortuneatly whitestuff tends to be slightly transparent at times, but the ocean ones are used to this), some are woven into baskets, some have a light green juice and are used as pens, some are parchment.

Ella StarburstParticipantYo, I'm here, sorry, I had a GALAXY LOAD of homework, I'll post my thing later

JithkeeperParticipantHomework. The mortal enemy of the CB. Well, I guess I better go do some now.

Ella StarburstParticipantPRAISE THE GOOD LORD
I HAVE A TIME SLOT TO ROLEPLAYHERE WE GO
**********************************
I squeezed Polis's hand, reciting me and Ashva's plan again and again in my head.
"Isn't this awesome, Vicky?" Polis screeched happily, "We're gonna go to the serpents, and ask them to not kill us, and we're going to be heroes!"
"Yep, can't wait," I force a smile, deciding not to mention the crucial part that she missed: The serpent's answer. Whatever. If me and Ashva's plan worked out, we wouldn't have to do any of that.
Suddenly, mom came in.
"Polis, Vicky," she nodded grimly, "It's time."
Polis jumped up and swam out the door, to the assigned meeting place, no doubt. I got up from my chair, and went over to mom. She gave me a look that explained all she wanted to say but couldn't: how she would miss me, how she wasn't sure if I would come back alive, how sorry she was for how she had acted in the past, and everything else. I simply smiled slightly and gave her a hug.
"Don't worry mom," I comforted her, "I'll make you proud."
With that, I swam out the door.
*******************************
So Spiffy, what I was thinking for Vicky and Ashva's plan, if that's still a thing, is that Vicky, being one of the oldest, would lead the group to "The Serpents Lair", but actually to her little hideout, and show them the land-dwellers world. Is that fair?

SpiffycatParticipantYas!

Rogue WildlingParticipantSerpent~
Bonegum, again. I can't remember the last time I had calamari, or even an isopod. This bonegum I found on a rock, near the surface. I'm waiting for the others I saw in my premonition. No wonder they're coming all the way out here, this bonegum is stringy, and very bitter. The bonegum down deeper is tender and definitely sweeter than this. I debate going back down and getting a few bags of it, trying to remember if there were bags on the waist of the me that I saw in my premonition. There were. I guess I have time to go back down.

I have no idea what I'm doing.

JithkeeperParticipant
Ashva~
I swish into the chamber and sit down, shivering in the cold water. I look around. Next to me is a brown-skinned, attractive girl with a spear in her hand, and across from her is a younger girl with gold-pink skin and black hair. She looks excited.Next to this girl is a boy with yellow eyes that gleam at me through the shadowy water. I don’t really like him; he makes me uneasy. Near him is a tall, intimidating boy. Now him I know – he is Odash, the heir to the throne of Kolet. I’ve heard various things about him, like how he’s friends with someone from a different tribe. This is unusual for royalty, and I regard him uneasily. Through the shadows I can just see a girl with black hair and violet scales, probably another member of Kolet. And in the corner is someone I can barely see, with black scales.
On my side of the table is Ren, a fellow Taxadian. I don’t know her that well – I pretty much stick with my friends and she sticks with hers. She’s nice enough, I guess. I’d better get used to her.
And finally, there is Vicky. I like Vicky, and I suppose we’ll be friends on this journey, especially since we share the same views. She smiles at me and at her cousin Polis, the girl with pink-gold skin.

I cut and pasted this, that's why there might be wierd stuffs at the top.
Hope this is OK for everyone.-
Ella StarburstParticipantthere IS weird stuff at the top, and where did you copy and paste that from? I copy and paste the MCU 24/7, but I have never seen that!
Sometimes I can get rid of the "weird stuff," but I tried it here and it didn't work.

@Jithy, DarkkingParticipantMaybe you could type on a google slideshow, that way you can save your work and have it just about anywhere, without the weird text stuff. You might want to be aware that if yo ucut and paste your work from google slides it may appear without the usual paragraph spacing, so be sure to put some gibberish before the paste(control shift V will give the desired effect better than control V), then delete it after for the pasting or you'll have random gibberish on every post.
Hope this helped!

Ella StarburstParticipantOh ok
-
JitheeperParticipantOY
PerlianiI copy and paste it from Microsoft Word. And I don't really care about the weird stuff, it doesn't really do any damage or anything, so what's wrong with it?
Thank you anyway, Darkking.
