you sit up.

>583599

no. you were sleeping. it's 3 in the morning and this is the first day of your parent's vacation. you stayed up all night last night once they were gone and now you're on the path to becoming a night owl

but that's not important right now

someone is in your house

Did they knock on your door or how do you know that there is someone there?

you swallow, grip the sheets, and try to ignore the pounding in your chest.

>>583607

no. they didn't knock. but you can hear their footfalls. they're walking around in the hallway behind the door in front of you.
that's not the only thing, though.

they're talking. they're saying your nickname over and over again. your door isn't locked.

your mind's racing. your eyes dart around nervously, and you try to think of a way to maybe defend yourself.

on second thought, maybe just hiding in the bathroom is a good idea. it's the door behind you of course.

If there's a window you can safely get out of in the bathroom, go. Just run. If not, arm yourself. Do you have a baseball bat? Worst case, try to use the lamp behind you.
You probably won't be able to win an actual fight, being out numbered and possably less equipped. Quickly lock the door, grab something and get ready. If they have a gun or if there are too many, don't fight. If not, aim to get past them, and flee.
Why would they be targeting you, specifically? Is anyone close enough to hear if you yell for help? You don't have a phone in your room, right?

Give 'em the ol' razzle dazzle

Razzle dazzle 'em. And they'll never catch wise!

>>583612 >>583613

That's just silly.
You guess it can be your last resort, but you're only doing it if you have the... required materials.(And also once you're relatively safe and or armed.)

>>583611

You head to the bathroom, although your legs are really wobbly, and you're shaking really badly. Your room is on the second floor, and you'd rather not jump from the height from your bathroom ... You're sure you can find a weapon or something in there, though.

As it's your first quest, FYI: nobody's going to post a response to that update, because there aren't any choices to be made and nothing to respond to. But maybe you already knew that, and are preparing to post additional things or something.

Ponder why someone might be out there looking for you.

Actually ... You don't know what you're searching for.

What are you looking for?

This is now your reality. Embrace it. Are we searching for something specific? Because if we aren't I think our ghost needs a scarf. To keep that ethereal chill off our ghostly neck, we need a scarf, so find one. (I'm serious)

You just had the most brilliant idea! How about we go past the door into the human realm where we're not supposed to go where everything is less colorful and everything is strange, inferior, and foreign? Surely a lesser being will donate a scarf to your cause!

This is the best idea you've had in ages! Come on, let's go!

You're here! Hooray! Everything is well!

You pushed the door open a little. You didn't mean to, but ... You were a little startled when you saw another spirit ... He had mass. And he was completely black. Like.. tar. Tar black.

That's fucking weird.

Well, he didn't seem to see you. Moving on.. this is the room the door leads to?

It's so.. gloomy.. but it doesn't make you gloomy! Your mood is unmovable. You're always happy! That's what you felt like when you died, so that's what you are now!

>always happy cause that's how you died
Well, lucky you, then. Sucks for everyone who didn't die happy, and now are condemned to eternal pain or fear or uncertainty or whatever.

Mortals sure are sassy these days...

Enough of that horsing around.
Your name is Lorna, you are a ghost, and you are going to acquire the heck out of a scarf!

Maybe ask the resident mortal if there's a scarf she/he wouldn't mind parting with, if you find her/him.
What's in that door there?

If the mortal can't hear you for some reason, (they must be deaf) acquire a Wigi board or a pencil and paper. You shall transcend failed communication to acquire scarf. Write SCARF, NOW. That will get their attention.

You are now this much less interesting protag.

Acquiring scarf is your only hope of getting home now.

As human protag, see if you can determine who is there, how many people are In the house?

Have a strange urge to seek cleaning chemicals, particularly some that could dissolve a substance like tar.

You .. have some Tar-Away under the sink, but you're not sure what good that would do in this situation ....

Looking around, there's a bunch of different things you could use.

There's...

>a bar of soap

>a spray bottle with water

>a toothbrush

>some hair scrunchies

>toothpicks

>a hairbrush

What should you grab?

Hairspray, soap, and the tar away because it looks friendly.

If you find a lighter, you can make a flamethrower with the hairspray, and take the water and soap to slick up the floor near your main door so an intruder might slip.

Well if thing is gonna mimic you then punch yourself in the face. If that doesn't knock the thing out cold, go get the TARD-AWAY. Surely it must have a use against this monstrosity, because you know, plot.

See what I mean by sassy humans?

Get wrecked, now Lorna possess that girl and get you a scarf.

Hrrm. Sooo what was that creepy red thing? Hymn?
And...is there anything we can do to help?

Either human protag is dead or knocked unconscious. Either way our objective is to find a scarf suitable for our ghost friend Lorna. If human protag goes to ghost realm then Lorna might go with her, but where is the fun in that? No scarfs in the ghost realm.

If she can withstand looking at her own demon, she's a tough macaroon.

Well.

She is your sister, after all.

Alright then, since possession is off the table, any way you can ask her for a scarf? I'm suggesting a wigi board. (Its for communicating with ghosts.) But I guess you should look after her until she wakes up. Sisterly love and all.

So... what's going on? Status report?

You are Hymn, daughter of Giselle, high vampir, and you are about to end this dumb feud between your family and the Kovalevsky family.

>end this dumb feud between your family and the Kovalevsky family.
You can't end a feud with a family by killing one of them unless you are absolutely sure there is only one left and nobody else cared about them.

Yeah, this is trademark perpetuating a feud. Carrying it out. Ending it would be letting it go.

What do vampires have to gain killing a little girl, anyways?

>>584704

Oh, here's the part you think the voices are going to be impressed by.

You know that Lorna is the treasured heir of the Kovalevsky "throne". You know if she were to be killed the entire little band of werewolves would collapse unto itself. You know.

How are you going to kill her is the question.

>>584708
"They will give up after a few losses" are famous last words. Is collapsing after losing their heir something that werewolf clans have actually done before?

who is to say they cant just pop out a few more heirs?

Because collapses are always cleanly directed inwards. Sure. Deterioration can never erupt violently outwards.

Question for you. If this is such an easy solution, why did none of your elders attempt it? Why are you here, and not your father? Why are you acting alone?

>>584708
Well you're a vampire, why not suck out all her blood?

Make it look like one of their own killed her. They will crumble twice as fast. Or write something cryptic in her corpse.

>>584710

You can't say for sure-- you're uncertain if there are any other .. supernatural clans out there.


>>584711

Lorna's mother can't have any more children-- she's troubled with a case of secondary infertility. They could adopt someone, but they'd be out of their minds to-- you can't exactly turn a human into a werewolf like you can sire another vampire.

>>584713

That.. could be a solution, however you're pretty sure that if you consume too much of a werewolf's blood you may die. Also, it tastes disgusting.

>>584712

Your father is a very sensitive topic, thank you very much.

You're acting alone because all of the other decent high vampires are blood-bank stealing cowards, that's what. You doubt they would be able to even push an old man into an alley to feed.

And your elders--ha. They may be old and powerful but they would turn into a pile of ash if they took a step outside in daylight.

>>584725

Does it look like you have anything to "write something cryptic" in her with? On second thought.. you'll be right back.

>cowards
Cowardice and caution can be the same thing, depending on the context. You never considered that they know something you do not?

Fun fact: We have it on good authority that her name is well-known in the future.
Now maybe this timeline thing isn't concrete, or maybe you shouldn't leave that body unattended...Or finish the job, if you haven't yet.

Hurry up and kill DAT bitch (get it), the time for vengeance and or just wanting to end the fued is NAOW. Time is wasting, finish her and do your cryptic shiz later.
