Roleplaying

Syeteka, Sye for short,
 stalked through the school hallway, long after the last bell. In fact, it was closer to dinnertime than it was lunch. The hallways had long ago had their lights shut off, and the silence was even a bit eerie. Her backpack weighed her down, so she struggled slightly to place her feet silently on the tile floor. Her hair mostly hid her pale face, and her scared hand grasped the knife in her belt, while her sword was safly hidden. She peered quickly in both directions, hidden in a shadowy alcove next to the
 Coke machine.
 Swinging her head left and right,
 she then
 scuttled into an empty room where they usually had science class. She knocked over a glass beaker in her haste, and she spat a few cusses before throwing a lone rag on top to sop it up. She hoped it wasn't poison. Although, knowing her luck, the green goo was. Ah, well,
 the damage was done. Once the glass peices were covered with a thick cloth, Sye moped her brow and took a shuddering breath. If they were caught.... No, she couldn't think of that now. She
 wouldn't.

Creeping around the darkened room, she grabbed a few abandoned snacks off the far table and gobbled them up. Sye hadn't eaten since lunch. Hiding the wrappers, she quietly paced across the large room. Tile, thin carpeting, not much to look at, minus the goop she spilled earlier that was still staining the ground.

She saw a good waiting place. Shoes squeaking slightly, she squeezed into the tiny closet on the edge of the room, opened the door just a crack, and sat, waiting for the other soon-to-be-runaways to join her. The shadows from the setting sun left large dark slashes around the room- the sun was setting. Sye croutched, hidden in the darkness of the closet. She waited. Checked her watch. Waited some more. Made so origami from spare paper. Waited even more. Checked her watch yet again. It was 6:23 right now. They had planned to meat at 6:30. She hoped they would all agree with their previous statements and meet her here before the sun went down.

Wait. All she could do now was wait.

Sye hated waiting.

Rizz glanced up at the clock that she could barely see from her hiding place that she was in, she knew everyone was gone now except for the other runaways
 and the doors to go outside were locked up tight so nobody else could get in, the clock on the wall said 6:23, quietly she managed to stand up without making a sound, her bag was fairly heavy but not so that she couldn't handle it, she easily slung it over her shoulder and crept down the hallways, as silent as she could, she was lucky she was light, when she stepped down you couldn't even hear her shoes hit the floor as she walked down the long halls to the room they had agreed to meet in, by the time she got close it was 6:25, but those two minutes seemed like hours, slowly she pushed open the door lucky for her it wasn't a squeeky one, she silently stalked in the room almost stepping on the shattered beaker that had the green goo in it and she smirked She's here... she thought to herself as she noticed the cracked open closet door and Rizz walked over and whispered "knock knock" as quietly as she could as she opened it a little more to look inside.

Sye stood up, stretched, and then silently paced out of the closet and into in the room, but even with holding her proud head up high, black strands of hair
 fell into her eyes. She sat down in a chair off to the side, brushed the hair out of her face, and half looked, half glared at the girl walking in. "S'up," she said with a slight drawl, and blinked as the shadows covered most of the room. "Been waiting for ages. Where are the others?" She asked. "Are they coming?"

 While she waited for an answer, she took out her knife and inspected its shining surface. Gleaming cold silver in the sunlight, she slid it back into its sheathe. "Almost time for the meeting to begin," she muttered, seeing as the sun finally slipped down off the horizen. "We need to figure a bunch a things out."

Rizz snorted and dropped her bag on the floor crossing her arms over her chest leaning against the wall, she flipped some of her hair out of her face revieling one of her icy colored violet eyes which were fixed on Syeteka with
 the cold and harsh glare she usually had "Don't know, they might be, they might not be, not up for me to decide." her voice was hard in a way and very uninviting showing no emotion what so ever, not showing even the slightest bit of intrest,
 from what you could see from behind her hair, her face also was expressionless except for the sharp cold glare in her eyes that honestly looked like they could slice you in half.
 
 

"They'd best get off
 their lazy rear ends and get the heck over here," Sye snarled, set off by the girl's coldness. Sye could dish it out, but sure couldn't take it. "I'd hate to have to drag the lazy bums down here."
With a grunt, she sat back, watching as the last sliver of daylight faded. "We got to get a move on," she growled, and ground her teeth in frusteration. 6:45. They were late.

"Can't believe I didn't just go by myself," groaned Sye to herself, shoving her nails into the palms of her hands to stop herself from screaming and cursing. Not that she was doing it for manners, but because if she cursed at the top of her lungs, they might be found. Instead, she cussed up a storm in her head, ground her teeth some more, nearly dug her nails of from her clentched fists, and took a deep breath. She wanted to leave already- get the heck out of there! But no, she made a deal- and she wouldn't break her word.

"Nasty little-" she spat under her breath using a few curse words before finding teh strength to stop herself. "How dare they be late..."

Rizz rolled her eyes and shook her head "Just relax ah? Plenty of time." she honestly could care less if they were a little late, it's not like she had anywhere to go right away, they still had till sunrise to get out and leave before anyone had even come to unlock the school doors to catch them.
  The sun was lowering in the sky now creating a slightly orange glow in the room they were in, Rizz walked past Syeteka and looked out the window between the blinds squinting and she let out a heavy
 huff of air, the thought of her parents was going through her mind and what they were thinking,
 high chances
 being they didn't even notice she never came home.

Sye smirked, and shoved her thumbs in her pockets. The room was
 golden, but she was getting figity and with Sye, that's not a good thing. She got up with a huff and began to pace, muttering quietly to herself. She finally sat down again, and chewed her lip for a little while. She knew that someone would either notice them in the building or that they had left home, and that wouldn't be good. She knew they needed to leave- as soon as possible. She didn't tell the other girl, but
 Sye
 had already
 tried to runaway- twice. Her picture had been in the paper and
 everything- they had finally caught her, a few months later, and once
 again a few
 years later. She had a record- which wasn't
 good. She was 15 now, though, and determined to leave.

She didn't say any of this, though. "We need to
 leave," was all she hissed
 at the other girl, with
 a nasty
 glint of acid
 green in her eyes.
 "I got a bad feeling about this."

 

Rizz turned her head looking back over her shoulder and shot a glare at her "Fine" she said then added "We might meet up with 'em in the streets, could've gotten caught up there."
 She walked over then bent down to grab her bag again, she picked it up and slung it over her shoulder, by now she was itching to leave as well, there was no way
 I'm
 going back to live with
 my parents after the way they've gotten to be acting
 over the years, I'm not
 about to risk
 my life with a couple of sick minded messed up and abusive... she spat at the thoughts of her secret life, then
 turned towards Syeteka "Ready when you are" she said.

Sye grabbed her bag, which was fairly heavy with food, water filters, things like that, off the ground and slung it over both shoulders. "Let's just go somewhere where they can't easily track us," she suggested, hoping she didn't give away too much, and beckoned towards the door. She pushed it open, did a quick hallway check, and then slunk out of the classroom like
 a cat. Hair yet again falling in her face, she blew it away quickly and plodded down the hallway, hoping the other girl was behind. She listened carefully for the sound of three pairs of shoes hitting the ground, but all she heard were her own.

With the hallway glowing dark orange in the fading sunlight, she quickly darted into a rare shadow, peered around again, and then raced for the door at a quick jog. When she reached outdoors, she took a deep breath of fresh air and slipped behind some dense bushes to wait for the other girl.
  She just hoped the others found them before she was stuck with only the other girl.... She blinked, squinted against the setting sun, and sighed.

"It's time," she whispered, gazing out over the schoolyard. "I'm leaving... yet again...." She shook her head, leaned back against the cold brick of the schoolbuilding, and waited.
 

Rizz after a while followed her out of the classroom, she slunk
 silently down the halls once again her footsteps were quiet unheard as she
 listened
 very carefully for anyone else in the school
 but
 just like her, it was silent,
 it seemed
 way to
 simple for her
 to walk through the halls of the empty school and
 escape unseen, unheard, and unnoticed
 but she did...easily, once she came to the outside doors, she darted for them knowing there wasn't any place to hide between that corner of the shadowed hall
 and the doors, she make it and
 opened them
 quietly as she was
 glancing around
 to make sure nobody was there then
 knelt down next to Syeteka behind the bush.

"Good," Sye hissed, brushing hair from her face. "No one in sight, I assume?"

Sye took a deep breath, and collected her throughts.
  They needed to meet up with the rest of the group, but they also needed to move- fast. The cops would be on their tails quicker than you can say run, and they needed to find a place to stay the night as soon as possible. A night out in the open without blankets or even shelter, Sye learned from experience, is nothing fun or intertaining.
 

"Let's get a move
 on,"
 she growled
 under her breath, and stood up slowly. No, no one was
 within
 sight,
 so she stood up straighter and
 nodded to the other girl. "No time to waste," she said
 quietly, and began to walk at a fast
 pace, head bent with her jacket hood draping
 in front of her
 face and covering it from view. "Need to find a shelter," she whispered, and hoped
 the other girl was behind her.
 

Rizz rolled her eyes and stood up following quietly yet quickly, she hated having to take orders but put up with it anyways being as she didn't have to go with her but did, after all there's more strength in numbers right? Who knows, all she knew was that they'd be caught if they didn't move faster and find shelter quickly.
  Rizz glanced over momentarily at the other girl "If we're gonna be stuck together I s'pose
 you should
 know my name" she paused then added "Rizz" she said with a slight whisper in her voice and looked over at her "Yours?" she asked

Sye glanced
 beside her at "Rizz". An intresting name. She wondered where it came from, but chewed on her lip instead. No, she wouldn't ask anything stupid or rash. She shrugged, and adjusted her backpack to a more comfertable position. "Guess so," she commented, and ducked her head away from a passing car.
 The wind rushed by her, and she shivered,
 zipping her black jacket farther up.

"It's Syeteka," she said in a quiet tone, and added as a second thought, after a short pause,
 "Sye for short." Feeling a bit weird and out-of-place, Sye studdied her shoes as she walked. Before she realized or had a chance to bite her tounge, she had already blurted out to Rizz, "So, why'd you decide to run away?"

Rizz stopped dead in her tracks reason one, at the name, she's never heard it before, and reason two, at the question that was just asked, she shot
 an icy cold glare at Syeteka before she
 continued to walk
 catching up with her and looked away again"I
 have my
 reasons..." she answered, her voice was low and quiet
 but it was almost cruel
 sounding as if
 it was giving her
 a warning saying to never dare to ask again sort of way.

Rizz attempted to change the subject "You think we'll find the others anytime soon? or at all?"
 she asked, she hated to talk about her past, she never brings it up
 even when asked about it.

A cold-eyed, red-haired figure slunk along the shadows by the wall, hunched over slightly and blue eyes narrowed. Or, make that 'eye' -- only one could be seen. The other was completely masked behind a thick lock of hair that dropped over the face.

Rennie stalked along the hall, keeping her head low. She sometimes wondered if it wouldn't be a better idea to completely hide her face with her hair, rather than just half of it. Much more concealing; Much safer. But then again, since when was anything in this world safe? Hmph. Rennie rubbed the round, eight-spiked silver charm around ner neck between her left thumb and forefinger, as she had a habit of doing. The
 angled sides
 of the smooth metal spikes succeeded giving her a vague feeling of comfort, if we can say that.

Oh well. Either way, she was here now, for the most part undetected and uninjured.

A fairly large town in the Western side of the USA, with loads of woodland and busy streets. The woods might be considered a safe haven, but there are always forest rangers on the lookout for anythung unusual. There's a small herd of elk somewhere nearby, near the edge of the town in the forest, but nothing else besides rabbits and wolves inhabit them. The woods are fairly easy to search, so you might stand a better chance of toughing it in the cold city allyways.

These kids are runaways. For their own personal reasons, be it for the challange or to escape family, they're on their own now. Evading the cops, sheltering in hidden coves, and mostly just trying to stay alive and unseen keeps them busy most of the time. They refuse to be caught; in fact, before running away together, they all made a pact to die rather than be caught. Liberty or death is their motto. Their plan? To escape capture until they reach the legal age where they can live by themselves. After that, the cops are off their tails and they are free to do whatever they wish.

These kids are on the run- and they're all under 18.

None that I can think of.

1) No unnecessary blood, gore, detailed romance, or violance. I understand this is a runaway RP, but really people, no 'details'.

2) Only one character, please.

3) Ages must be between 13-16. Nothing over age 16.

4) If you'd like, your character may die- but only if you give the OK. If they die, you may join again with a new character, or use it as a way to quit the RP.

5) NO pets- or siblings! No bringing your horse, dog, cat, parrot, ferret, or even goldfish.  No sisters or brothers as well.

6) Wepons are allowed, and actually incouraged. You may bring something to keep you safe- or to hunt, hmm?

7) To keep things interesting, I may butt in once in a while with a cop, newspaper advertisement, or radio ad, any of which may advertise the missing kids/look for/find the kids. But, I cannot harm your character in any way, unless you wish me to.

8) NO godmodding! You may ONLY control your character! No controling ads, cops, other players, animals, weather, surroundings, or anything else. The only thing OUTSIDE of your character that you may add in once in a while is the parent(s).

9) When creating your character, please include their quirks, crushes, weapons, skills, trinkets/items, and why we're bringing them along.

And that's about it! :)
