☆ WEEK FIVE

[raisingproject]

Magical Girl Raising Project

Monday-Thursday, Week 5

13 REMAIN

Unlike the quiet of last week, the sounds of the occasional static seem to stop; the world around them seems to become more stable and fluid, as if the week prior had never happened. Hands no longer occasionally go through walls or buildings, the eggs are no longer there as well as the body they managed to complete. Just like Cinderella at the chime of midnight, everything goes back to the way it used to be, here in Town A.

Of course "used to be" is a rather loose term, as the tasks are still broken for some reason and nobody seems to appear around Town A anymore. Nevertheless, at around 9 AM in the morning, everyone's phones turn immediately on, regardless of whether they had it off or not at the time, as an announcement is made-

"Since everything is now back to normal thanks to my master, we will continue with the game, pon. There is an announcement to be made that you all would really like to hear, so make sure you all meet in the inn lobby, pon. I'll be waiting."

MOTIVE

[raisingproject]

As you are all very much aware of by now, this game won't end until we either reach four people, or someone gets the allotted candy, pon. But since I've noticed that nobody really wants to do anything with that, I'll force my hand.

There is a traitor amongst the rest of you still living, pon! This traitor has a win condition that is different from everyone else's in that they have to be the only one alive, pon. Of course, they have rules that prevent them from killing everyone at once, pon.

But if they don't kill someone within the next few days, they'll lose something that's most precious to them.

So that's it from me, pon. Oh, and don't bother asking who it is. They're not allowed to tell, unless they want to suffer that consequence, pon. I'm sure they'll definitely do it, though. Of course, if you want to stop them... you might just have to kill them, pon. Anyway, here are the candy counts for the week:

[As he says that, a screen with the numbers goes up:]

Kaine: 4808
Zack: 2820
Edna: 2290
Nagi: 2112
Miach: 2025
Moeka: 1747
Joshua: 1714
Recette: 1699
Szayelaporro: 1564
Dahlia: 1514
Eruna: 1454
Taiki: 1314
Seraphina: 1297

[zackthekiller]

[Great... He just woke up after getting bit in the head and being supernaturally forced to kiss someone he didn't like the night before. The revealation of there being a traitor in their ranks to screw everyone over was just icing on the cake.]

You just want to be ripped to shreds, don't you, you blobby bastard?

[Because he's still gonna try to attack the hologram in rage.]

[sedatedkiss]

So I was right, there is someone betraying us...

[Joshua sighs. He remembers that conversation he had with Tamamo after the first execution...]

[raisingproject]

You can try, but it won't get you anywhere, pon.

[sedatedkiss]

Monday

[Joshua’s finally not being a wallflower and going out and being a productive member of society. Maybe. At the very least he needs to change the wrappings he wears on around his hands and lower arms, so to the hospital he goes to get some bandages. He’ll be grabbing some of those just in case he needs more. While in the hospital, he is wrapping his arms rather meticulously. Anyone who sees him without them will notice his hands are very calloused, but he’s not hiding anything. They’re literally there for support.]

Tuesday-Thursday

[He’s checking out the dojo. With word of a traitor, he needs to work on his swordplay. The wooden swords aren’t quite what he’s used to with the dual knives he has back home, but it’s better than nothing. When there, it’s clear he is rather trained and whatever style he uses, a quick style meant for quick strikes. After all, he did admit last trial that he used to be an assassin, so it really shouldn’t be all too surprising.]

Wednesday-Thursday

[He’s checking out the TV station, but it’s more or less a place he’s really not familiar with. The technology is a little more advanced than he’s used to, but the same can be said of this place in general.

If anything, he’s watching those monitors… just what kind of power do they have? Once again, he’s not surprised by things, or if he is, he’s hiding it well behind a straight face.]

dojo!

[raisingproject]

[There seems to be something glistening - glowing, really - in the area near where the bows and arrows are kept.

> Investigate?]

[sedatedkiss]

[He guesses he's investigating.

What's the glowing object near the bows and arrows?]

[raisingproject]

[It's a key! More specifically, a key that is labeled 30.]

[sedatedkiss]

[30 huh? Does it look like it belongs to a room at the inn?]

[raisingproject]

[Yes, it does.]

[crossingout]

Kill the traitor before everyone else gets killed, huh... I suppose the moral of the story is "kill one for the sake of the many".

[...] I don't agree with that, though.

[sedatedkiss]

[For the sake of just investigating, Joshua will go back to the inn and find this room 30 and attempt to use the key on the door.]

[raisingproject]

[There's a definite click of something unlocking. Seems like it worked! Enter?]

[sedatedkiss]

[He's not sure what to expect inside, but he'll go in. Is there anything inside that will catch his eye immediately?]

[raisingproject]

[On the table to the right side, there seems to be a small stack of books. If he decides to look closer, he'll see the titles: The Moon Over the Mountain and Light, Wind and Dreams. Next to the books seems to be a plushie and food. There's even chopsticks right next to it, too.

On the bed seems to be several black briefcases.]

[sedatedkiss]

[Books definitely keep his interest. He'll pick them up and leaf through them a bit, however, he won't take them. Especially since this place looks like it may be occupied by someone.

Though the briefcases also catch his interest. It probably won't hurt to take a tiny peek into one of them. So that he does, unlatching the thing and carefully opening one up. Hopefully, nothing pops out at him that will kill him...]

[raisingproject]

[Thankfully, it's not locked. What's inside seems to be currency. More specifically, Japanese currency. In fact, there's enough briefcases to make seven billion yen.]

[sedatedkiss]

[Well then...

...too bad it's not candies, they could end this game early. Unfortunately, Joshua has no idea what the currencies mean or how significant they are. Not his currency he uses...]

[raisingproject]

[Too bad, indeed. Anywhere else you'd like to check? There's the closet and bathroom.]

[zackthekiller]

Monday

[You know what we learned from our past mistakes? Zack can kill irrationally when he is irritated. Guess what we don't want happening again? Zack killing someone irrationally.]

[So after that mess of a party and the announcement, he's just gonna go find some place to brood for a bit that's far away from any potential victims. Going into magical form and perching on top of that new Steel Tower thing might do the trick.]

[Of course, you could stumble upon him while he's sulking.]

Tuesday

[Now that Zack's feeling a little better, he's gonna take Crown for a walk in the park. A confessed serial killer being followed around by a small deer thing paints a rather contrasting picture, but hey. Someone has to take care of it.]

Wendsday

[Zack wanders into the elementary school after following the trail of newspaper clippings. He couldn't read them, but he has a scythe and a deer thing. He should be able to take on a spooky haunted school.]

[Feel free to join the party, though.
It would be a good thing if he had someone smart on his side.]

Thursday

[Why is there a clothing store?]

[Why do these clothes look so familiar?!]

[Zack's gonna nose around in here after seeing a tattered,
bloodstained ensemble that would best fit a child on display.]

[Who would sell something like that, and how did they know it existed?!]

Tv station!

[zackthekiller]

What the fuck...?

[Oh, hey. Have a Zack staring blankly at the monitors on the screen. Why is he getting Deja Vu here?]

[sedatedkiss]

[Well, since he's here he may as well...

He'll check the closet. Anything noteworthy in here that will pop out at him?]

[sedatedkiss]

I don't know what's going on, but I don't put anything like this beyond our captors.

[It'd explain why they seem to know so much...]

[zackthekiller]

[Zack grumbles, gripping his scythe a little tighter. He's not going to kill Joshua, but he is planning to take out the tv screens...]

[Anything of note that might distract him for a second?]

[sedatedkiss]

[Joshua sighs, and without a hint of fear, he puts a hand on Zack's scythe. It's almost a motion to try to calm Zack down.]

Don't do anything reckless.
