Helen blushes and turns away. With dismay? Embarrassment? I’m pretty sure my mouth is hanging open. Well, it must have been because Ava pushes my jaw up to shut it. How the heck did Cheesecracker know… “How the heck—” I begin.
“It’s the way he holds himself,” Cheesecracker explains, looping an arm around Iymnota’s waist. “That’s a Hamlet stance.”
Helen stands straighter, rigid as a…popsicle. What? I’m not a poet! Then a brilliant idea forms in my mind. Lie, Freak, lie! “I meant how the heck could you think that Helen here is Hamlet?” I shake my head at him. “You ought to apologize for saying she stands like a dude.”
Cheesecracker glowers at me, and I step back. “My bad,” he mutters, but Helen starts to walk away. “Hey, wait, lady!” Helen keeps walking.
I wince. Tigerstar sighs and gives me a restless glance. Her eyes beg me to leave. Ava has stepped away from me to examine Iymnota. The brunette takes a step back and raises an eyebrow, taking in Ava’s scarred face.
“Yes?” Iymnota asks.
“Nothing,” Ava answers, retreating to join Helen, who is now crouched at the fountain water’s side. Something’s up, but now*s not the time to ask. Turning back to Cheesecracker, I point with my eyes to Helen.
“You should apologize.”
Cheesecracker throws his hands up in exasperation. “Fine.” He goes off to join Helen, and Ava slinks back to stand beside me. Her big, brown eyes have locked onto Iymnota. Tigerstar, meanwhile, isn’t looking at Iymnota. I feel like I’m in the middle of some sort of conspiracy. It’s not as fun as it sounds...
"What’s going on?”
“Nothing,” Tigerstar replies, immediately, defensively. Nothing my butt! Why did that sound very strange inside my head? At least, it didn't escape outside my head so that three respectable girls would have heard.

Sighing, I shake my head and search the Varrock Square head for an annoying but familiar face. When I look, he’s not there. Is this another part of the change too? “Romeo, where art thou?” I wonder. No sight of his mopey face or insanely bright costume and flowers.
“Deny thy father and refuse thy name/ Or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,” Tigerstar finishes. She sighs and closes her eyes. "That was always my favorite story.” Iymnota snorts, and Ava gives Tigerstar a ferocious look, clinging to my shoulder like a koala clings to its eucalyptus.
“He said ‘where art thou’ not wherefore art thou,” Ava points out, trying to put a damper on Tigerstar’s mood. I elbow her lightly in the ribs, and Ava pokes me. The gesture reminds me so much of Dawn that I start to choke up. My story and Dawn’s: yet another love tragedy. Well, at least, for me.
“Wait,” I suddenly remember. “Where are Cheesecracker and Helen?”
Iymnota shrugs.
“You don’t care?” Nice girl. Sheesh.
"I trust him.”
“Trust.” All of a sudden, I feel bad for deceiving Iymnota. If she loves Cheesecracker that much, maybe Hamlet can go after another guy. I bet that there are better-looking fish with better attitudes than Cheesecracker in the sea. I feel less sorry for her when she pulls out a gun.
Glancing over my shoulder to find Cheesecracker and Helen, both of whom have gone who-knows-where, I circle the lady with the gun until she’s pointing it only at me and not Tigerstar or Ava.
“Don’t any of you move!” Iymnota yells, jabbing the gun against my chest. Where are the people in the Square? Conveniently gone. I see how it is…Fate hates me!
“Well done.”
I turn towards the sound of the greasy, self-satisfied voice. Suspi’s eyes glitter at me as he approaches. Instead of a gun, he carries a rune axe. His spidery fingers run themselves along the edge, producing beads of blood. If that’s not a death threat, I’m a noob…

“What do you want?” I ask Suspi. Behind me, I can heard Tigerstar and Ava’s rapid breathing. Darn it. We had all been caught without a single weapon. I should know better.
“We don’t need you hindering us. You will help us. First, you have to take a message to Dawn,” Suspi relates, all business-like. “Tell her to stop investigating. Or you will die a painful, slow death.”
“That she’ll die a painful, slow death? Or me?” I ask, trying to think of anything to get myself out of this. Maybe if I agree but don’t actually do it…that makes me worse than a liar. I still have my morals!
“YOU will. Imagine how much it would torment her. After all, isn’t she fond of you?” Suspi inquires with a soft laugh.
Ah, a way out! “No,” I reply. “I mean…nothing to her.” Even as I say it, I pray to Saradomin that it isn’t true.
Iymnota pushes the gun deeper into my chest. I glower at her. “Easy. I have organs there, you know.” She gives me a look, telling me she couldn’t care in the least. What a bunch of cold villains…oh wait, they are cold villains. Figures.

“Should we kill him right now?" Iymnota asks.
Suspi shakes his head. “Blade needs him.”
Wait… Needs me? To do his dirty work? Never! I’d rather die a thousand painful times! When I meet Suspi’s eyes defiantly, I gulp. Ah, crud. Something tells me these guys would be willing to make me suffer a thousand, excruciating deaths. Even so, while I am not a masochist and hate pain with a passion, I am not a coward!
“Remember to tell Dawn,” Suspi finishes before walking away casually. Iymnota removes the gun and tucks it somewhere down yonder. I don’t want to know. She starts to follow Suspi and then turns her head back to say:
"Tell Cheesecracker we’re over.”
“Any particular reason?” Aside from her being a villain and all?
“His sarcasm was starting to get on my nerves.” Iymnota then winks at me. “You should join us. I’d hate to kill a cutie like you.”

Oh my. I blush like an idiot as Runescapians start trickling back into the Square and Iymnota disappears into the crowd. A yelp escapes me as someone taps my shoulder. It’s only Cheesecracker though.
“Where were you?” I sputter.
He gives me a shrug. “Do you really need to know? Well, I felt compelled to leave the Square for some strange reason.” He frowns, placing his hands on his hips. A girl’s hands covers his, slowly and sensually. Helen is standing behind him. She places her head on his shoulder, her lips sneaking towards his neck. When she reaches her objective, she makes a sound of satisfaction that causes the hairs on my head stand on end. Yikes.
"Keep it PG!" I remind them, and they both give me exasperated looks. I decide to walk away while my innocence remains untouched. “Blag!” I exclaim as someone hugs the life out of me.
“You’re okay!” Tigerstar says tearfully, bouncing away to let me breathe.
Ava watches us from a distance. I grin at her. “Don’t I get a hug from you too?”
Her scarred face blushes. “If you really want one. P3rvert.”
I laugh weakly. “Fine, then maybe an explanation of what the heck is going on?”
Stepping past Tigerstar, Ava gives me a brief hug. “I wish I knew.”
“Did you recognize Iymnota?”
She nods. “I did, but I have no idea where I’ve met her.”
That must be frustrating, but Ava looks happy for once. I nudge her. “Let’s get out of here. I think Cheesecracker and Helen want some alone time.”
Tigerstar giggles, and Ava slips her hand into mine. I blink at her in surprise, but Ava grips my hand fiercely. “You’re crushing my fingers,” I point out with a slight wince.
“Ah, sorry!” She bows her head in that quaint way she has and then stumbles towards the city path leading towards Varrock’s West bank. I follow since I have no idea where to go next. Then Tigerstar’s whisper freezes me.
“She’s in love with you.”
“No way!”
“Do you love her?”
“Don’t ask complicated questions,” I moan, and Tigerstar laughs.

“She’s an idiot if she thinks any man would be interested in her.”
Wheeling around and alarming a random Runescapian walking behind me, I can’t help snapping, “You shouldn’t judge by appearances.”
Tigerstar tilts her head. “Can you stop anyone from judging by appearances?”
“No..."
"Besides,” Tigerstar continues, "I think her clinginess would drive any sane man crazy.”
“I have a quest to do,” I say to the ground. “Come on.”
Quiet now, Tigerstar trails me. Ah, just perfect. Now I can stew in my questions. What if I’m not a sane man? What about Dawn and me? What about that dragon I have to fight? What’s up with Suspi and Iymnota? And Blade? I shiver.
“Cold?” Tigerstar asks.
“Nah.” Just scared out of my wits.

However, if one were to bring a higher authority into the picture, then the law of perfection would not exist, and it IS possible for someone-and therfore something-to be perfect. In conclusion of this brief counter-argument, one would have to disprove the theory of higher powers before completely dispelling my previous post.
Or, y'know, option 2 still works and Reaver is just a lier with a broken keyboard.
(Insert surprised look) Iymnota got in the story! And, apparently, she's a hot yet extremely evil hacker! WHO KNEW?!

I AM THE (second, can't forget the Mods) HIGHEST AUTHORITY ON THIS THREAD! So, basically, I can't be killed. Therefore, whether Reaver shot me or not is insignificant ^_^ Now, stop spewing mind-numbing philosphy.
Yes, Iymnota got into the story. I found a useful role for her.
Edit: Ah, yes, since Cheesecracker's a bit of sleazeball, you can safely assume that Iymnota is hot.

however, have you considered that IF this were reavers world he might be a mod in disguise, and therefore the higher authority? or are we all just stuck in some sick twisted universe created by me? or obama?
that said, since these are all metaphysical matters with no grain of fact within them, all based on each other like some skyscraper build on mud, i think its best that we stop the headdesking of innocent bystanders that dont understand a word about it
now i leave you with this thing, that i do with this word, making previus statement untrue, that things cannot be done by typing them.....
BUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!
dont mess with the master >_>
