blackout- an adventure in the dark

Guest

First topic message reminder :

blackout
The Smiths were having a party. They were known for being the most socially active family in town, though they weren't the richest. In their medium-sized and cozy house, they host fun and happy parties almost every week. This week was different. Annabelle Smith, the matriarch of the family, had her birthday this week. She was just about to blow out the candles when she disappeared. The candles went out by themselves, and the entire house became cloaked in darkness.

Now, Annabelle is missing, there's a power outage(or so it seems) and the house has become large and spacious. We must find her.

We are:

George Smith- father of the family, NPC
Rebecca Smith- somewhat bossy, clever, leaderly, 12 - Rayne
Heather Smith- very quiet, follower of Rebecca, even though she's older, 14 - Enchantix
Louise Lang- very flashy and fun, though somewhat airheaded, friend of Heather, 16- Nat
Jason, "just Jason"- a shy, smart 15 year old, family friend- Meercat
Matthew DeCaro- a loud and somewhat funny 13 year old- Furry
and Annabelle Smith, narrator/Sunny

I, Annabelle will try to guide you to saving me, and turning the lights back on, but I can't promise anything. I will give you choices at times, but at others, you must try and use your judgement.

IMPORTANT:

Spoiler:

There's the house map for future reference.

Rules:
- Please don't do anything stupid at free-choice questions.
- NPCs like George, are part of the narration, not anyone important. George is probably the most important NPC.
- No cussing, god-moding, etc.
- Try and follow your character's personality.
Everyone is assigned a color. Your question will be in that color.

Outside, to get to the basement.

Basements are always full with bugs. Yuck!

That's probably what Louise would want, Nat. I can't imagine her in the basement.

All we'd be hearing is "Oh!" and "Eeeek!" :P

'Tis okay, Furbs. Oh, wait, the downstairs bathroom, right?

..Quite obviously, the adults thought something was up as Heather and Jason shot for the door, Rebecca for the kitchen, Matthew for the bathroom and Louise for the attic. George got up from the couch, where he was doing his thinking and said, "Where do you... uh..." He tried to count the shapes in the darkness. "Five! Where do you five think your going." Matthew, being his funny self was able to get off easy.
.."Just nature's calls, sir!" He yelled and quickly ran off. George nodded happily, having bought Matthew's excuse. He quickly turned to Heather and Jason.
.."And you two?" he asked angrily. Heather and Jason, unable to think of an excuse just stood there, embarassed.
..Now came Louise and Rebecca. He stared at them expectantly. Louise could have said she was going upstairs to use that bathroom, but didn't, being Louise. Rebecca just choked on her response and hesitated.

~*~*~

..Matthew open the door of the bathroom, shined the flashlight around, pulled down his pants, and well, you know. After this was taken care of, he spotted some ornamental candles. These didn't burn long or light, but he grabbed it anyways. He opened the medicine cabinet and found a small stash of candy grabbed it.

Heather and Jason, will you:

A. Run out the door like the wind
B. Be logical and TRY to make up an excuse
C. Argue with George

Louise, will you:

A. Run up the stairs
B. Say, "I DUNNO!" and run up the stairs
C. Don't do anything and stay downstairs

Rebecca, will you:

A. Say you're hungry and want some food.
B. Run for your life
C. Say you're checking to see if the ice cream in the freezer has melted yet.

Matthew, will you:

A. Hang out in the bathroom until someone comes in there, then jump out from behind the shower curtain( Very Happy

)
B. Go back into the dining room/living room and get the candle lit to give it to Heather or Rebecca
C. Go back into the dining living room to jump out from behind the TV ( Very Happy

)
or
D. Other, if you hate all these choices, just tell me(they're rather dumb ones anyways)

Inventories:

Matthew:
3 candy bars
An ornamental candle
Flashlight

Jason:
A lit candle
A lighter

Heather:
Nothing

Rebecca:
Nothing

I lost the entire thing I had typed up. I know I saved it in drafts, but I need my dad to unblock my profile, I think. Sorry, next phase of the story SHOULD be done by later today.

..Before anything happened, Heather and Jason smiled at eachother and flew out the doors. They gathered outside the front door in front of a bush, catching there breath and giggling.
