Right about now, the thrill Yoruichi once had on the maze was slowly disappearing. The whirlpool earlier was not too bad, but the tango with the jaguar was another thing. It was really taking a toll on the former shinigami. Though she was happy with the amount of progress they have achieved. Even though at times there never seemed to be an end to it all. 

 After completely bandaging the scratches and wounds that were gifted to her by the very ‘friendly’ jaguar and taking a few minutes break. The pair moved on to their last and final door. It took the two a longer time to reach their last room compared to the others... Whether because the actual maze in this particle section was larger or just the path they took was the opposite of a shortcut, was beyond Yoruichi.

But regardless the two marched on-wards!

Soon enough the pair had arrived at their final destination. The door, just like the ones before it, had the same familiar ‘X’ painted on it. Nothing special there...

Yoruichi pushed the door open, letting it swing as to get a good look inside; learning from what they have previously unknowingly walked into before. However, this did not help them much. 

It was just black. The light that shone from behind them only partially lit the entrance. Anything else beyond that was cloaked in pure darkness.

 “Do you want to take the wheel with this one?” Peering up at her companion holding a warm smile.

After the arsenal Pandora had given them for the challenges ahead, Bazz-B had been excited for the threats that laid ahead. Instead it had been a variety of obstacles that conveniently couldn’t be murdered. It was making him bitter, and so between the challenge rooms he’d taken to searching for other teams. The path ahead wasn’t set for them, each trek a maze to find what would bring them closer to victory, but now the Quincy was hoping to bump into another team on the way. Some form of conflict other than the words exchanged between him and his partner.

They couldn’t kill each other, after all.

“I need to hit something soon,” he warned, peering back at Cirucci. Mohawk was drooping, mood was souring. “Bazz-B needs his violence fix.”

Due to unforeseen circumstances, the following teams are being granted 2 week extensions to get their event starters up:

Hyuuga Neji & Perona

Giselle Gewelle & Kuchiki Rukia

Nara Yoshino & Konan

These extensions can be extended when needed. 

Happy rping, everyone!

Those who are still without rp partners for one reason or another by midday May 28th (Timezone:Selangor, Malaysia) will have their characters matched with new ones.

For rpers who have been entirely or mostly absent for the event, you have until then to contact your rp partners.

Failure to do so will result in your spot being given away.

Please take note.

Obstacle: Snakes in the Dark

Times were getting tough for the young man with the bottomless stomach. Anticipating yet another meal at the second challenge, he was merely presented with a free bath. Whether or not it was needed was open to interpretation, yet such trifling things did not concern him. All that mattered now was the meal awaiting him at the finish line.

His food deliveries barely sustaining him each day, he found himself dreary most days, a far cry from his enthusiastic demeanor he’d held around 6 days ago. Hunger could do terrible things to a person, and Luffy’s was akin to that of a dinosaur.

Yet despite his lethargic posture similar to that of a person on death’s door, if it were by magic his energy was revitalized almost instantaneously as he spotted what he’d now determined to be the final door. “There it is, Zuchi! The meat is so close I can almost smell it!”

Obstacle: Whirlpool

“Mmmm, that was delicious!” echoed throughout the concrete halls as Luffy polished off the last of the bear. Despite his insatiable appetite, along with the daily food deliveries he’d managed to somehow make the giant grizzly last a few days, a modest effort by him and a seemingly impossible effort for others. He could only imagine the disgust Nami would display towards him.

“But you know, Zuchi...” he muttered whilst sucking the last skerricks of food off the bone. “How much longer have we gotta walk? I thought the finish line was at the X?” He’d charged headlong in the first section of the maze, taking only a few hours to reach the first trial, however realizing the futility of further exertion as the days wore on, as well as recovering from his battle, they’d kept a reasonable pace together ever since.

Obstacle: Bear Trap

Sprinting back from yet another dead end, Luffy crossed paths with Kurotsuchi as he made his way back to the fork. He’d seemed to have an uncanny knack for choosing the wrong path, and unbeknownst to him it was likely that his partner had cracked onto this trend, allowing him to scout out ahead in order to conserve energy.

Yet the presently-not-rubber pressed on, and his persistence was soon rewarded, a gateway with a large ‘X’ emblazoned on the front. “Yosh! Meat and glory, here I come!” Throwing caution to the wind, he promptly kicked down the door on arrival, charging into the empty room. 

“Huh... is this another dead end?” He was certain the X meant victory, or at least a checkpoint. Before he could ponder the situation any further, the floor below him collapsed, his natural reaction let out a wail as he plummeted several meters.

Hitting the ground with significant force, the Straw Hat slowly brought himself to his feet, nursing himself as pain was a usual non-factor with his rubber property. “Oi Zuchi, no one told me about any holes in the ground!” 

Before he could ramble any further, a grumbling noise resonated from the darkened area before him. His attention focused, a large shadowy figure slowly emerged, a fully grown grizzly bear staring him down. Whilst most would be paralyzed in fear in moments such as this, Luffy had but one natural reaction.
