Kiki: Why did you come here?It was a new message from Kiki.Corinne was startled, her eyes moved up to the top right corner of the screen. There were no bars…There was no signal at all.What came after gave Corinne a shiver down her spine.Kiki: Why did you come here?Kiki: Run…Kiki: Why are you here?Kiki: You cannot be here, run!The messages came in one after another, but they gave off very different vibes, as though Kiki had a split personality.Then, a message instantly threw her to the North Pole. Kiki: I’m here…As if on cue, she heard knocking.Corinne’s eyes swept towards the door, but the knocking sound came from the window.That was when Corinne felt it, someone was gazing at her. Corinne turned her head and make eye contact with an eyeball. Someone was staring at her through the gap of the curtains.Corinne raised a brow, her room was on the second floor, unless the person outside was a ninja or Spiderman, the only thing she could think of was ghosts. And with the messa
A scream was never a good sign when they were at a station.As soon as Ace heard the scream, he stood up abruptly, knocking over his chair.“That sounded like Potter,” Miles stated.“Inn keeper dude?” John asked.“Who did this to my lantern?! Ahhhh!” Potter screamed.
Corinne, Abigail and John ventured to the southern part of the town. Before them lay a bustling market, filled with colour and life. Everywhere their eyes fell, vendors presented their wares beneath cheerful awnings of brightly coloured cloth.Rows of tables stood full with produce, meats and ready-to-eat dishes. Not only that, but they were selling a lot of eggs. Plain eggs, decorative egg-shaped knick-knacks, dishes made from eggs. No matter how much of a foodie Corinne was, seeing so many eggs in one place made her lose her appetite.The air was alive with chatter and the tantalizing aroma of spices and freshly cooked food. People of all ages meandered amongst the aisles, examining items and conversing.As Corinne and her fellow travellers strolled around the marketplace, she noticed every stall had a familiar symbol; a vibrant orange rooster with wings outstretched as if it were about to take flight. It reminded her of the weather-worn stone sculpture in the town square.“With how
Darkness…When Claire opened her eyes that was what first came into sight. ThompThompThompThen, she felt the ground shake. What’s going on? Is it an earthquake? Claire thought. She looked around, Where am I? And where’s Corinne? Claire thought, waiting for her eyes to adjust to the darkness. But she still couldn’t see anything.She touched the wall, it felt sticky. Gross…was she inside some creature’s stomach or something? “Let’s see…What do we have here? Do we have any unhealthy chicks today?”A loud, brittle, and hoarse voice could be heard along with the thumping sound. That was when Claire realized that it was heavy footsteps that caused the ground to shake.Before Claire could process what had happened, she felt herself being lifted up. Then, she heard a sharp, shrilling fan sound. The next thing she felt was pain, then everything turned dark.Ding![Party Quest: Escape the Chicken CoopParty Size: 5Party Members:Doll Queen1113Cutie Pie PrincessBlack CatSM KingGet me
The five little chicks walked as fast as their legs could carry them towards the ajar door, the only passage of light into the coop; it seemed like the light at the end of the tunnel. “Wait, did you guys hear that?” Claire said as she suddenly stopped in her tracks, spreading her wings wide to stop the others from moving.“What? I didn’t hear anything.” Danny responded absentmindedly as he stroked the egg he carried like a baby.Claire moved a little closer to the door, and the sound came again. A chirp that would have been equivalent to a gasp escaped her beak. “There’s definitely something out there.” Claire added under her breath.“I’m not hearing anything. Let’s just be careful and follow the map to the star and get this over with.” Jason said as he waved his wings in the air.When he was done, he continued his journey toward the door and the other chicks exchanged glances before they trailed behind him; everyone except Claire, she was convinced there was something out there.Cl
“Willowdale Town?” she whispered; it rang a bell, but she couldn’t quite remember. Then, it hit her. That was the name of this stop.Corinne must be in this town somewhere, it’s just that she was stuck in the coop and in this game. She needed to get out.Claire began to snoop around and try to look for clues. After a little while of searching, she came across a folder and she began to pull out the papers inside. The first piece of paper was a newspaper cut-out that contained a missing person’s article.She brought out the second paper and it was the same, so was the third, and Claire’s mind began to wonder. When she was trying to bring out the fourth paper, she slipped on a round pen and fell off the table into what looked like a large sack from the inside. “Ouch!” she said as she landed on a hard object which happened to be a picture frame of a little boy when she looked at it. She looked around and she noticed that the sack was filled with personal items from different people, ke
The longer the travellers were stuck in the survival game, the more they lost themselves.It started with memories from when they were kids, then their high school times, their college times; those memories were slowly being devoured. Recent memories were foggy but could still be recalled if they concentrated.At least there was a silver lining.Claire took a deep breath. That’s right, all they had to do was get to the goal. Claire walked over to Noby, the chick with round glasses flinched.“It’s alright,” Claire softened her voice, “everything will be alright, okay? Look at your traveller’s profile and try to calm down, try to recall what happened before the game restarted.”Hearing Claire’s gentle voice, Noby sucked in a breath and his recent memories slowly came back to him. Both fear and relief overwhelmed him: fear because he really lost a lot of his memories, relief because he still had his human side.“...I’m okay now,” Noby said, turning to look at Claire, “thanks.”Claire res
Claire’s eyes landed on Danny as a thought slowly formed in her mind. Danny could feel her intense stare.Danny gulped, “Why are you looking at me like that?”A smile crept up Claire’s face and the next thing Danny felt was a force pulling him back. He looked over his shoulder and saw Claire tugging on his straw strap. The tugging turned into a full on pull and in a flash, his feet were off the ground.Before Danny could ask what was going on, Claire swung him in the air like a fan and propelled him towards the truck like a human slingshot, or chick slingshot in their present condition.Danny flapped his underdeveloped wings as he soared through the air, and in a few seconds, he dropped to the ground with a splat, still a distance away from the truck.Claire couldn’t believe it, was this expectation vs reality? She expected Danny would have flown into the truck when she threw him over like a slingshot, but reality showed her otherwise. She overestimated the strength in his chick body.
