47 - An Invitation From Decaprio

Noobs are like a cold, they never go away.
-Old Elitist Saying

Eventually Sinusoidal and the others returned to the bench on which Mr. Happy had been sitting for the last few hours.
The light on the caverns ceiling was dimming, had been dimming for a while now, and gave the black lake a dull glow. All of Xanadu was bathed in the twilight of a synthesized evening broken here and there by a burst of light from the city’s major buildings.
Gizmo B Free:You're still here?
Mr. Happy woke from a shallow sleep, startled by the sudden voice.
(c)Mr. Happy:Huh?
Sinusoidal:The lake is nice to observe
Sinusoidal:Especially bearing the incandescent quality it has now
Sinusoidal gazed out at the waters, momentarily hypnotized by their glow then snapped his eyes back to Mr. Happy.
Sinusoidal:Sorry that took so long
Sinusoidal:But he was hard to locate
Sinusoidal indicated Wolf0122 who blushed slightly with embarrassment.
Wolf0122:We did a shoddy job of showing you Xanadu
Gizmo B Free:There's still light
Wolf0122:Yea, but most buildings are shut to the public by now
Sinusoidal:Why don’t we go to the mage guild then
Gizmo B Free:That sounds good
Gizmo B Free looked at Mr. Happy
Gizmo B Free:If you want to of course
Mr. Happy finally rose from the bench, his body sore from its long confinement to the bench’s strict shape.
(c)Mr. Happy:Might as well
Sinusoidal:K, cool
As they walked southeast across Xanadu's landscape, the nerds became increasingly excited. (c)Mr. Happy guessed they didn't get many new people to show the magic guild to. Or maybe it was because the nerds were beginning to talk about Base4. This seemed the main topic that all conversation revolved around as the gray building shaped like a wizards hat came into sight before them.
What had Base4 wanted with Mr. Happy, they wondered. (c)Mr. Happy replied that she had just been worried about his fainting and they seemed to accept this.

Next, the talk turned to Wolf0122s chances with Base4. Wolf0122s eyes lit up as he said -
Wolf0122:She said she'd think about it,
Wolf0122:That's definitely not a rejection.
Sinusoidal:Yea, you used a lot of sesquipedalian words
Sinusoidal:Women like that.
Gizmo B Free:I think you have a good chance.
(c)Mr. Happy was getting sick of this talk.
(c)Mr. Happy:I don't think she understood what you were saying
Everyone was quiet for a moment, then
Wolf0122:She's smart, she understood.
Gizmo B Free:Yea.
Sinusoidal:She'll choose you..
He cut off suddenly as they stopped before the mage guild doors. They were gigantic things, cut and crafted deftly from the wood of magic trees. Stepping up to them, he knocked three times rapidly, then twice slowly, and another four times rapidly. A slot of wood was pulled inwards near the top of the doors, and a pair of eyes squinted out at them from within. The voice that came through the door sounded like a corpse being dragged across gravel.
Preblooch:Whaddya want?
Sinusoidal:A lemon.
Preblooch:And what if I don’t give you no lemon?
Sinusoidal:That was a double-negative
Sinusoidal:So I'd be thankful.
Preblooch:Lol, got me there.
The eyes disappeared, and a moment later a lemon was shoved out of the slot. Sinusoidal caught it nimbly before it hit the ground and pushed it into a depression in the door. A brief flash of green light illuminated the lemon and a second later the door opened inwards with a click. (c)Mr. Happy decided he was not even going to think about what had just happened.
All four of them stepped through the door and into a large crowded room that reminded Mr. Happy of the Burthorpe game room. Chairs and table were scattered across the spacious circular room that made up the base of the wizards hat shape of the guild. Almost all of the tables were filled with people conversing, most wearing infinity wizard gowns, the din of all of their arguments filled the air.

Preblooch, a sturdy man with lots of hair on his face and wearing a full Dharok armor set, shut the door behind them with a sharp snap.
Preblooch:Found a newbie, (c)eh?
Gizmo B Free:?
Preblooch :( C)That Mr. Happy guy?
Gizmo B Free:Who?
He glanced at Mr. Happy and seemed not to recognize him.
Gizmo B Free:I have no idea who that guy is
A grin broke out on Prebloochs face.
Preblooch:You mean he's not with you?
Preblooch punched one hand into another, his grin becoming wider.
Gizmo B Free:Jk Preblooch
Prebloochs grin fell.
Preblooch:He’s with u?
Gizmo B Free:Yea, we're showing him the guild.
Preblooch:* am, haven’t had anyone to beat up for nigh on two hours now
Preblooch :( C)It gets boring this job does.
Gizmo B Free:Well, give it a rest and show our guest around.
Gizmo B Free:I'll take a shift at the doors.
Preblooch:U sure?
Gizmo B Free:U know this place better than I.
Preblooch: k.
(c)Mr. Happy, Wolf0122, and Sinusoidal left the door, following Preblooch as he led them into the main room. A few Xanadians paused their discussions to eye the newcomers and, though most lost interest quickly, a few gazes did linger on Mr. Happy as he moved through the crowd.
Preblooch:No offense, but this room aint no fun.
Preblooch:Just a bunch o people talking bout magic.
Sinusoidal:How about the third floor, preblooch?
Preblooch:Want to view the displays, do ye?
He stared at Mr. Happy, waiting for an answer.
(c)Mr. Happy:Uh, sure.
Preblooch:Follow then.
They were already following him, but Mr. Happy decided not to point this out. Preblooch sauntered over to a section of the wall that encircled the room which had the semblances of two gargoyles protruding out from it. Leaning in close to one of these he whispered
Preblooch:Whizzing fizbees.
Standing back, he waited.
Nothing happened.
Preblooch bent forward again.
Preblooch:Whizzing fizbees.
Standing back, he waited.
Nothing happened.
Preblooch:**** gargoyles!

Grasping the side of one gargoyle's face he gave a mighty heave. A section of the wall rasped open and all four of them proceeded inside.
(c)Mr. Happy was surprised to find himself standing at a point on a spiral staircase that wound down to his left and up to his right, the bulk of it obscured from sight by its curvature. Every step on the staircase had depressions on it, a result of generations of feet trampling up and down them.
(c)Mr. Happy:This has a basement?
Preblooch:Yea
Sinusoidal:That's where they practice non-combat spells.
(c)Mr. Happy :O
On their climb upwards, they passed two parties heading the opposite direction, each of which Preblooch greeted with a perfunctory Gafternoon. Everyone they met seemed to have urgent business to attend to however, and didnt spare them so much as a glance.
After two turns of the staircase Preblooch stopped and pulled on a handhold on one side of the corridor, causing another wall to creak open.
Preblooch C)This here's the display floor.
(c)Mr. Happy entered into a short stone corridor that, after a few paces, opened up into a room with a shorter diameter than the first.
Sinusoidal:This is where I work.
(c)Mr. Happy:So what do you do here?
The room was much less crowded than the first one. Five or six solitary figures strode between the occasional glass pedestal each of which bore a transparent case enclosing a particular type of rune.
Sinusoidal:Mostly polishing, sorting.
Sinusoidal:This is where some of the expired runes are kept.
Sinusoidal:This case here,
Sinusoidal strode over to a case in which a multitude of runes with what looked like green light bulbs engraved upon them were housed.
Sinusoidal:Has some of the last nature runes.
Sinusoidal:As you might know, the nature temple was closed
Sinusoidal:When the elitists started noob-hunting on Karamja.
(c)Mr. Happy:Hmm
Preblooch:Will u be needing me?
Sinusoidal:Not really, thnx for the help.

Preblooch:Kk, Ill be in the cellar
Preblooch:Should anyone call for me.
He backed out of the room, shutting the door behind him as he left.
Sinusoidal:K
Sinusoidal shifted over to another case, close to one of the rooms walls.
Sinusoidal:And these are mud runes.
Wolf0122:They were never really popular in rs.
Sinusoidal:Yea.
(c)Mr. Happy:And these?
He had noticed an almost empty case situated along the southeastern rim of the chamber. Within it lay a solitary rune with blue scales decorating its front.
Wolf0122:That would be a law rune.
(c)Mr. Happy:Why is there only one?
Mr. Happy:Is it rare?
Whatever it was, it had to be powerful. The glass concealing it glowed a dull red and shimmered when he touched it. What he really wanted to know is what it could do to Cheezit92.
Sinusoidal:Um, it is rare.
Wolf0122:But that's not why there's only one.
(c)Mr. Happy:?
Sinusoidal:I don’t want to talk about it.
Wolf0122:Why?
Wolf0122:It wasn’t your watch.
(c)Mr. Happy:What happened?
Wolf0122:Someone stole the laws.
Wolf0122:About three months ago.
Sinusoidal:Yea, it was the biggest thing in Xanadu for a while.
Sinusoidal :O ver ten thousand of them stolen.
Sinusoidal:These cases dont contain all of our runes,
Sinusoidal nly a few, the rest are housed elsewhere.
Wolf0122:Anyway, they came in here one morning to find
Wolf0122 ur clandestine stash stolen.
Wolf0122:Sinusoidal was pretty angry.
Sinusoidal:When I find out who did it
Mr. Happy:Well, you won't find them if you don't search
Sinusoidal :D on't worry, I've got someone searching for me,
Sinusoidal:A teleportation expert.
Wolf0122:But they havent brought back news yet.
Sinusoidal:Yea, we gave them the laws in the display case.
(c)Mr. Happy:Except for one
Sinusoidal:Yes.
Wolf0122:I wonder when Texan85s coming back anyway
Wolf0122 :D idn't he say September?
Sinusoidal:He'll be back.
Sinusoidal:I pmed him a week ago.
Wolf0122:Kk.

Mr. Happy:So what is teleportation?
Some kind of torture method he hoped.
Sinusoidal:It's traveling between two places in a second.
(c)Mr. Happy :O , and they're not used for anything else?
Sinusoidal:Not much else, no.
(c)Mr. Happy thought for a bit.
(c)Mr. Happy:Can you use them to
Mr. Happy:Stretch someone between two places in a second.
That would be interesting
But Wolf0122 said no, giving him an odd look in the process. Well that was dull, thought Mr. Happy. It was quite as dull as the rest of the day, which passed in a nondescript manner.
They surveyed the non-combat magic training room - a bunch of old guys moving objects around with magic, - looked in on a staff room - nothing new had been invented since the fire/air staffs, - and listened to some old guy talk about effective ways of using magic at the top of the tower.
By the time he returned to his chamber, (c)Mr. Happy was exhausted and once again began to think of ways to escape this city and reach Cheezit92. How had he made it past the traps the first time? They had said prophets changed the futurecould he use his abilities to kill Cheezit92? Then he remembered his seizure in the park, and of Cheezit92 falling down a dark hole into eternal blackness. That eased his thoughts and he soon fell into an easy sleep.
The next morning brought new excitement, however. Gizmo B Free came racing into his room at first light, clutching a leaf of paper in his hand, and yanking Mr. Happy noisily away from his dreams.
Gizmo B Free :D ecaprio is inviting you to a meeting!
The door of Mr. Happy'* chamber burst open again and Wolf0122 and Sinusoidal rushed in. Did they always travel together?
Wolf0122:And it's this evening!
Sinusoidal:We better get you ready.
Wolf0122:Intellectually as well as aesthetically.
(c)Mr. Happy:Huh?
Gizmo B Free:Just get out of bed.

Mr. Happy was pulled from his blankets by the three Xanadians and was hurriedly donning his clothes when a knock sounded at the door.
Thoughts of finding this legendary Decaprio outside the door entered Mr. Happy'* mind as he went to answer it. Everyone else also seemed stopped in mid-action as Mr. Happy pulled open the door and he assumed they might harbor the same thoughts
But of course it was nothing of the sort. Standing beyond the arch of the doorway and dressed in full blue dragon regalia was Base4.

48 - Lumbridge

And on the last day Zamorak created Zezima
-Elitist preacher

Rain poured down from the sky in sheets so dense that Zezima and Voldemort did not see Lumbridge castle until it was right in front of them. Although it was only a bit past midday, rain clouds blotted out all traces of the sun and gave a drab gray cast to everything.
Zezima was tired of the rain. What had started out as a sweet, cleansing drizzle had now escalated into this pounding downpour. It was as though the gods were pouring a water bucket down from the heavens specifically to damage Zezimas already deflated spirit.
Zezima glanced over at Voldemort to see if he had noticed the crumbling wall that now ran along beside them. Voldemort hadnt. He trudged along next to Zezima, his eyes down on the street before him, not heeding the landscape about them. Zezima tapped on Voldemorts shoulder and when he looked up pointed at the wall they were passing, a monstrous wall that extended up high above their heads as sheer as one of the cliffs on Trollweis mountain. It was meant to be unscalable but Zezima thought hed be able to climb it given the chance. Voldemort nodded and went back to his study of the ground, seemingly lost in deep thoughts.
Zezima wondered what Voldemort was thinking of. Perhaps Starwarfan0? Voldemort had gotten a message from him a short time ago saying he was safe for now, but the noobs were trying to organize a hunt for him in the Varrock sewers. Perhaps what they would find at Lumbridgezezima had thought about that too.
As they passed between the two guard towers that stood resolute to either side of the entrance to the Lumbridge courtyard, Zezima tapped Voldemorts shoulder again. Sticking a hand out, he gestured at a white shape that could be made out blurrily on one of the towers above them through the rain. The white shape never moved but Voldemort got Zezimas message: They had to be careful; they were not the only ones here.

A flight of stairs suddenly revealed themselves and Zezima quickly climbed these, coming to a stop before Lumbridges heavy wood doors. They were locked. Lifting a hand, Zezima was briefly aware of the sodden robes clinging close to his skin before he knocked on the wet wood.
They stood and waited, but no answer came.
Zezima knocked again, and again no answer came.
Voldemort :P robably cant hear you because of the rain.
Voldemort:Stand back.
Zezima retreated a step as Voldemort raised his hands and sent a solid block of earth at the door, it connected with a resounding boom and left an indent in the wood.
Voldemort:Bet they heard that.
A few seconds later the scraping of a heavy bar being drawn could be heard through the downpour and the doors swung inwards to reveal several grim elitists archers, composite longbows at the ready. Voldemort instinctively raised his hands above his head.
Nutdo, one of the archers, recognized Zezima and lowered his weapon.
Nutdo:Ur alive?
Zezima nodded.
Nutdo:But we heard
Voldemort:Alright, w00t, he's alive
Voldemort:Now could we come in?
Nutdo nodded and gestured to them to follow him before turning and sta(c)lking off down a hallway. The other rangers still appeared uneasy. Voldemort hurried to catch up.
Voldemort:I couldn't reach Conan.
Zezima vaguely remembered that Conan had been put in charge of Lumbridge castle while he went to Karamja.
Nutdo:Well that might be because hes dead.
Voldemort:Yes, that would do it.
Nutdo:A(c)zraeleterni's been put in charge.
Voldemort :O , I dont know him.
Nutdo:Yea, he's capable though.
Voldemort:Can we meet him?
Nutdo:That's where we're headed.
Voldemort:K
Nutdo addressed Zezima while striding on ahead.
Nutdo:I heard something happened after u left Karamja
Voldemort:Yea, lol he got mut -
Voldemort trailed off at Zezima's glare.
Voldemort:Um*m, nvm.
Nutdo:We're here.

They had stopped before a wooden door, nondescript but for the words NON-IMPORTANT PERSON ROOM barely legible in faded letters across its surface.
Nutdo:Wait here.
Ducking into the room, Nutdo left them. For a minute an awkward silence filled the corridor, the elitists seeming to study Voldemort and Zezima, then the door opened again. Nutdo signaled that they should enter.
The room was cramped, that was Zezimas first impression. A sturdy desk took up most of the interior, leaving little space for the personal collections of armor and weapons A(c)zraeleterni had tried to store in the room. A(c)zraeleterni himself lounged in a sturdy maple chair behind the table, tapping his rune claws (the only weapons he was wearing) on the table. Standing up quickly, he gave Zezima a respectful bow and then settled himself back in his chair with a
A(c)zraeleterni:I am glad you are well, my lord.
He gestured to two other chairs that had somehow been crammed into the room. Voldemort and Zezima took the offered seats.
A(c)zraeleterni:I had heard some ill new of you
A(c)zraeleterni:But it seems my sources were faulty.
Voldemort:What happened to Conan?
A(c)zraeleterni ran his claws against a patch of stubble on his chin as his green eyes peered thoughtfully at the ceiling. Suddenly, he seemed to remember what they were talking of.
A(c)zraeleterni :O , the commander you posted in charge of Lumbridge?
Voldemort:Yes.
A(c)zraeleterni:He died almost a week ago.
A(c)zraeleterni:In a foolhardy attempt to break the noob army.
Voldemort:So the noobs tried to retake Lumbridge?
A(c)zraeleterni:Yes, and still are
A(c)zraeleterni:Though they retreated recently after a series of defeats.
Voldemort :O
So that explained the noobs in Varrock.
Voldemort:Lol, I imagine this castle was easy to hold.
A(c)zraeleterni:Yes,
He was tapping his claws absentmindedly on the table again.
