The Netherworld (IC)

[Nocturnia]

The cherry petals slowly fall from the sky into one of the abandoned courtyards of the Moon harbor , the large area seems rather desolate , and all the exits seem closed , a small fountain in the middle still seems to be operational , its waters filled with petals.
Around it lie several benches , which despite being here for thousands of years haven't aged one bit.
The floor consists of large stone blocks which appear cracked and crooked on occasion.

Suddenly , near the fountain , a small flicker of black appears , and it suddenly spreads to the surrounding space. A sphere of blackness then begins to fade , in its place are now several ghosts , freshly dead people.

Around them lies the desolate courtyard and the pitch-black sky. Despite the fact there is no sun on the sky the light is as if its seen through a cloud. The air is almost without any sounds , the only thing that is heard is a faint wind and distant sounds of some kind of a commotion.

Soon , the ghosts begin to regain consciousness...

Axel couldn't quite remember much about today's event, but it must have been one hell of a party since he didn't remember how the hell he had gotten here. As he stood up, he saw that he wasn't alone here, other people were unconscious as well but something was quite odd here... they all had a certain glow to them. Strange, but atleast the colors were pretty.

Mia was lying on the cold floor as if she had fallen asleep there. Upon regaining consciousness the girl slowly opens her eyes.
Around her several others scatered on the ground some slowly showing signs of waking up and a cop standing close to where she was.
Mia gets up in a bit of a clumsy manner almost as if she was slightly dizzy.
She didn't understand where she was or how she got there. She couldn't even remember what happened the day before.
A bit scared and confused trying to understand the situation she was in Mia wasn't really sure how to react to this situation and ends up instinctively staring at the young cop in front of her with a slightly puzzled look on her face waiting for others to awaken or at least some answers to this strange event.

Steinhart slowly regained consciousness, grumbling softly as her senses returned. "Ah, what happened...?" She wondered aloud, picking herself back up carefully. A quick look around revealed to her that she was not alone; a small group of people about the unfamiliar area. Steinhart shook a bit of dizziness off before clearing her throat, preparing to address the collection of strangers. The one that appeared quite similar to a police officer...

"... Wait... what?" Steinhart said, rubbing her eyes and taking another look at all of the people. She was almost one hundred percent positive that human beings normally did not glow random colors. Then again, the whole situation was rather odd, so what was one more strange thing?

Kara woke up in a small closed off yard and all around were many people, unknown to her. "Where am I? I can't remember what happened, it's all blurry," she though. After a few quick glances at others and herself she realized that she was most likely dead, but had no idea how did she die. "Aren't we supposed to reincarnate after death on and on until we reach enlightenment as the teachings say or is maybe like those Christians that are right and we go to Heaven, Hell or that middle thing after death," Kara wondered being sure that, for one thing this was not neither a reincarnation nor something that those people from the West believed in.

Teya woke up in a weird place, wondering why isn't she home with her mother, father and grandmother. A question came to her mind: "Where am I? Why I am here?" A few quick glances around made her wonder even more. I mean not every day you see such a diverse collection of humans, especially if you are from rural Russia. With amazement Teya looked at each person only to soon realize that all of them, including her, were from different historical periods. Teya wondered how was that possible.

Lance slowly opened his eyes, waking up on the ground and staring up into the sky, as he felt... dizzy, his mind all blurry about the events prior to him apparently passing out somewhere outside, it seemed. "Man, where am I..." He mumbled to himself, as he sat on up and looked around, seeing... quite a few people around, also seemingly waking up, a police officer, a few other women, and just quite a strange group of people to be all in one spot, not to mention they... appeared to have glowing colors around them. "... Huh?... What the heck..." Lance said, a bit weirded out, but quickly came to the conclusion that he was likely still asleep and dreaming this... rather unique and strange dream, so far. Either that, or he was seeing things around the other people, which was a possibility. Nonetheless, he stood on up and brushed himself off with his hands, before taking another look at his surroundings, wondering where exactly he woke up, this creepy looking place wasn't exactly his kind of place to sleep at after all. "Hey, uh... sorry to bother you guys, but anyone know where we are?" Lance asked the group of strangers, chuckling nervously for a brief moment, since he had no idea how they would react or if they were rude or polite, or anything really.

[Tatoba]

Axel looked around at everyone else as they started to come to, and they all seemed just as confused as he was fortunately enough. "Morning sleepyheads. I'm guessing you don't know where we are either." He refrained from mentioning the pretty colors just yet, he wanted to wait for someone else to mention it so he would be sure that he wasn't crazy.

[Neko]

Mia looked at the boy with a slightly confused look as he asked the group the same questions she had in her mind.
All the time she remained silent and as the policeman finishes speaking she slowly raises her arm and points directly at him with a stare that seemed as if she could see right through him.
"You can see it too...how everyone is glowing with different colours." Upon saying this Mia falls to her knees, not like a real fall but rather she just let herself drop to the ground and remain sitting in that spot.
"There is...nothing familiar here..." She mumbles as she scans the area around her once more. After this the girl turns silent again gazing far into the distance, waiting for some sort of answer with a somewhat empty and melancholic look on her face.

[Captain Ivan]

"... Just what in the blue blazes is going on here?" Steinhart managed to ask past her great deal of confusion, a grimace on her face. Her memory was a bit of a blur, which only contributed to the nagging sense of dread at the back of her mind, constantly telling her that something was not right at all. "Does anyone even know where we are?" she asked the others, forcing herself to focus on getting answers.

[Zelpheon]

Lance sighed, seeing that none of the other people also knew where they were, which was strange, since he assumed at least someone would. "Well... Guess nobody knows..." Lance said, sighing again, before looking over the place, trying to see if he could remember anything about it as maybe a hopeful clue to finding out their location, though he failed to... find anything amongst this creepy looking place. "... Anybody have a phone or something? If so, might be able to call one of your contacts, or maybe have a GPS on it, or... something, just an idea." Lance told the group, hoping that one of the people would have it or something to help them figure where they were.
