You wake up, face down in the dirt, your head throbbing in pain.

You tried remembering what got you into this situation, but all you get are blanks. No history, no name, no idea where you were. Fucking perfect.

It is dark, or rather you assume it is. You could be blind for all you know. No, not blind, you think to yourself as your eyes finally adjust to see the dim moonlight breaking through the branches. You were in a forest and it was night time. You try moving, but you soon find out that the lower half of your body is buried in dirt.

What do you do?
>>
>>23136657


Dig my body out of the dirt.
>>
I wonder where my car is, while trying to solve a rubics cube.
>>
>>23136778

You are indeed a thinker.
>>
This sounds like three years ago.
>>
Gritting your teeth and muttering to yourself, your hands start to scoop up dirt. It's packed around you rather tight, but you soon make enough progress that you could start wiggling your waist.

Soon enough, you've dug enough to manage to pull yourself out of the ground. Panting from the effort, you spit out some dirt that's gotten into your mouth and stand up to inspect your surroundings.

It is dark as a motherfucker in this forest, the moonlight just barely guiding your way as you explore. As you walk about halfblind, your foot steps on something pointy, making you jump.

Bending over to pick it up, you find a rubics cube just randomly lying about in the forest.

You feel the compulsion to start twisting and solving it, even if it's dark as hell and you can barely make out the colors.

You start twisting the rubics cube, slowly at first, using what light there was to guide you. By accident or by chance, you manage to fill up one side with the correct colors. Just as you solve one side however, reality warps around you, and you find a violent force starts pulling you somewhere.

Before you knew what was going on, you find yourself in a brightly lit room, lined with torches and made out of colorful marble. On the far side of the room was a mirror, and you see yourself for the first time.

Are you a boy or a girl? describe yourself.

What do you do?

I look at the mirrow and i'm scared of what i see:

>>
>>23137174
Yessss.
>>
>>23137174

You look at the mirror and find a rather dashing if not savage man staring right back at you. Walking closer, you see that you are definitely a fine specimen of a man, towering with well defined muscles with long blonde hair and a red, flowing beard. A carpet of curly hair covered most of your manly body, a testament to the testosterone that flowed in your veins.

You tear your eyes away from the mirror to inspect the place some more.

You must not have noticed before, but there were more things inside the room. There was a chest to the left of you, a closet to your right and a door directly behind you.

What do?

>>
"Clothes are for pussies!" You find yourself crying out suddenly as you approach the chest, walking unabashedly as your manhood dangled proudly between your legs.

You kneel before the chest. It was more like a plain wooden crate, really. Unadorned with not a lock in sight. Anybody could just open it and take what is inside.

Still, a quiet, less manly voice in your head says, it doesn't belong to you.

Do you open it? roll d100 if you do.

Finders keepers, the manlier voice in your head said, pushing your wuss of a conscience aside as your hand lifts the lid.

You peer into the chest to find that it was deeper than it let on from the outside, the darkness obscuring what was in the bottom.

There was the whirring of unseen mechanisms, and time seemed to slowdown as an arrow flew out of the darkness and right towards you.

>>
>>23137551

It was moving slower than you anticipated for a speeding arrow, still fast but not blindingly so. You manage to tilt your head to the side as the arrow grazed your shoulder flying past you, blood splattering from the wound.

You hurriedly back away from the chest and proudly announce. "My power is more than you could possibly imagine!"

"Oh really?" droned a bored voice behind you.

You turn your head just in time to see that the arrow was now speeding towards your back.

Holy quick time events, vikingman! Roll d100 for more didging, getting best of first 3.

>>23137658

"Fucking wizards!" you growl as you fall flat on the ground, the arrow just barely missing the top of your head as you dove.

"My, my, you're a quick one, aint ya?" You look up to see some skinny motherfucker dressed like a pink Robin Hood, sitting on top of the closet on the other side of the room. His legs were crossed, chin resting amusedly on one hand and looking at you with bored interest. "Hey, don't look at me, you still got some dodging to do."

You look around you and see that the arrow was again flying straight towards you. "Are you fucking kidding me?!"

"By the blood and thunder roiling in my veins!" You curse as you rolled out of the way, just as the arrow planted itself into the marble floor.

You stand up, staring down the man onto of the closet and tense your muscles for what was to come. You launch yourself from the floor and lunged at the man with a dragon kick from across the room. You take a moment to be impressed with yourself. Maybe you've trained in some martial arts in the past, who knows? "I am power!"

The man merely looked at you, idly flicking his wrist and snapping.

You feel a sharp pain, in your side, throwing you off course and sending you crashing into the closet below the man. Getting up from the rubble, you find the arrow stuck to your side. "What the fuck?"

Before you knew it, the arrow pulled itself out of you, floating up in front of your face.

What do? roll d100, best of 1st three.

>>23137975
>>23137958

You quickly look around for a means of escape. No windows, just the door, but that was on the far side of the room.

The arrow suddenly darted for your neck, giving you only a split second to react. Bringing both of your hands in front of you, you clapped them together, catching the arrow by the shaft.

Before you could breathe a sigh of relief however, the arrow wiggled violently in your grasp, slithering through your grip and thrusting it's head to your neck.

This was it, you thought, reluctantly accepting death. Suddenly, the arrow stopped, just an inch from your neck. You look down and saw a ghostly hand coming out of your chest, catching the arrow for you.

>>23138004

>>23138067

The hand clenched tightly around the arrow, snapping it in half. The pieces dissolved into dust, and you are left staring at the ghostly appendage as it retreated back into your chest. "What in the name of my sexy beard...?" you wonder.

"Well, this is an annoying development." The man said as he jumped from the top of the ruined closet, landing in the center of the room. "I was hoping to kill you before your Stand could awaken."

"Stand?" you asked, confused.

"Don't worry about it, you'll be dead soon." The man said, taking out a colorful bow that didn't seem out of place in some kind of magical girl show. He pulled on the string, and an arrow manifested in it, much like the one before. "Prickly Needle." he announced, aiming the bow and arrow at you.

Just as the arrow left the bow, you felt an impetus rush to your legs and make you move, meeting it head on. Deciding to go with it, you ducked into a roll just as the arrow was about to plant itself between your eyes, then rising up again, rushing at the archer.

"So quick-!" the man said in surprise as you fell upon him. He jumped back as he pulled on the string again, creating another arrow. "Not quick enough!"

The arrow flew to your face but you catch it with ease. "Useless!" you roar. Before you could draw your fist back to punch him right in the jaw, two ghostly, muscled arms popped out of your beard and delivered a barrage of punches.

"Muda! Muda! Muda! Muda!" roared a voice in your head as you showered the archer with bone shattering blows.

The man convulsed like a rag doll as over a dozen punches landed on him. He flew back, crashing into the far wall, falling to the ground limp. The marbled room slowly faded away, leaving the both of you in the middle of a clearing in the forest. "Feel the unstoppable breadth of my strength." you scoff. The man didn't move or say anything from where he was sitting. "I hope you're still alive, I need answers!"

As you approached him, you step on something pointy again. Looking down, it was another rubics cube.

You feel another compulsion to pick it up and solve it, but you wanted to interrogate the man as well.

The moonlight was brighter now, and you feel that lingering compulsion to pick up the rubics cube and solve it. Looking up at the man, you watched him closely as you picked up the cube.

He was most definitely out of it, you conclude. Skinny man like him would be lucky if he came out of that able to use his legs again, much less alive.

Taking the cube in your hand, you twisted the puzzle experimentally. It was slow going at first, but you eventually found your stride, solving one side with ease again.

You felt another force pulling at you again, and you find yourself back inside the room of colorful marble tiles, along with the mirror, the chest and closet.

You hear a clapping sound behind you, and you turn to see a man in a striped suit and a green bowler hat in front of the door. "Wonderful." he announced. "Few people get out of my Curiosity Killed the Cat, but you're the first one dumb enough to come back in!" he laughed.

You hold up a hand to silence his clapping, still engrossed in the rubics cube. "Kindly shut the fuck up, little man, I'm busy." You say dismissively, before returning your full attention to the cube.

"Eh?" the man said, confused. "I don't think you appreciate the gravity of this situation, friend." the man said as he sauntered over closer to you.

"Shut up. Thinking."

The man frowned at your lack of interest in him and approached you more, hand sneaking into the jacket of his suit and pulling out a knife. "Yeah, sure, you keep on doing that...." he sneered dangerously. He rushed you, aiming to stab you with his knife.

Just as he was about to make contact, a ghostly hand grabbed him by the wrist.

"I said..." You begin dangerously, facing the man as he dangled in the air. "Shut up!" with a massive chop of your right hand, you send him skidding back across the floor. "Hey... wait a minute..." you say, coming to a realization.

You could interrogate this guy.

The man got up with relative ease, dusting himself off and looking none worse for wear. "You fool." he said, laughing with amusement. "I am invulnerable to injury in this world that Curiosity Killed the Cat made!" he announced. "The only way out is to solve the puzzle, but let's see how you do that under constant atta-!"

The world around the both of you shifted and you were back in the forest again.

"Eh?" the man said, confused. "EH?!!!!"

"Finished!" you roared triumphantly.

"How!? How could you have finished so fast?!" he demanded.

"You kept running your mouth about how invulnerable you were." you say, tossing the cube over your shoulder. "Gave me all the time in the world." You approached the man and cracked your knuckles. "I suggest you start singing, little man."

The man backed away, breaking into a run, but you catch him by the scruff of his suit and pulled him face to face with you. He tried lunging you with the knife but you just caught his hand, twisting his wrist and breaking it in a sickening snap, making the man scream and drop the blade.

"Who do you work for?!" you demanded, sending spittle flying into the man's face. "Depending on what you say, i may have to kick your ass!"

"We- we're just a couple of guardians!" the man said, terrified of you. "Me and my friend, we was just trying to weed out the weaklings! Only the strong get to enter Morrisburg! It's a terrifying place! We're doing them a favor by killing them now!"

"Morrisburg? A city?" you ask, and the man nodded quickly.

"Yeah, a big city surrounded by golden walls, that way!" the man said. You glared at him suspiciously. "I swear, it's that way! You can't miss it in the day light, and you can't leave this place any other way!"

"Where is this place?"

"I... I can't say!" You punched him in the gut.

"Answer me!"

"I said I can't!" the man said, beginning to blubber pathetically.

You've wrung him out for all you can it seems. Here you are, naked in the forest with your two defeated attackers and a city to the east.

Looking at the grown man openly crying in front of you with a look of disgust, you drop him on the ground and bring your hands to your hips, looking around you. "Alright, alright, just shut up! Crying pisses me off!"

The man instantly stows his tears, resorting to quietly sobbing.

You sigh, and shiver as you became aware of the cold wind that licked your chiseled, Adonis-like body. "Hey." you say, catching the man's attention and looming over him with your naked form. "Strip."

"Eh?" the man squeaked, feeling an all new kind of fear grip him.

(Be right back, 30 minute hiatus)

>>23139348
A few minutes later, you're dressed in the green striped suit, the material stretching over your larger frame like spandex, hugging you tightly and accentuating your physique.

"Niiiice...." you say as you strike some poses, checking the comfort of the fit. "Thanks for the threads." you said, turning to the man as you plop the bowler hat on your head.

The man covered his naked body, his skinny form shivering more in the cold night air. "So- so you ain't gonna kill me?"

"Depends..."

"Your friend is injured, it'd be best you get him to a doctor before he dies." You say, while approaching a tree, running a hand over the rough bark as you inspected it.

"Sure, yeah, sure..." the man said, not believing you let him live. He got up and went to his friend's side.

"If you can't tell me about this place, then tell me about the city." you say suddenly.

"Morrisburg is the city in the middle of this forest." he says grimly. "This forest stretches across eternity. No way out unless you get into the city and make your way to the ivory tower in the middle. They say that if you climb up the top, you get a wish..."

"A wish?"

"Yeah, anything you want, but the city is full of monsters... dead things..." Before he could continue, something jumped out from the woods, bristling with fur and fangs flashing in the moonlight. "Blimey!"

"Hey, I'm still talking to him!" you tell the wolf as you grasp the tree trunk with both hands. Pulling with all your might, you see the ghostly arms come out of you once more and help you, wrenching the tree from the ground and swatting the wolf away. "Urrya!"

But there were more of them however, swarming in from every direction. Before you could turn to face them, they were upon you.

Or so you thought as the wolves ignored you and proceeded to rip apart the two men who had attacked you earlier.

"No!" you say out loud, trying in vain to swat the wolves away from them.

"Forget it!" atop a tree stood a man, dressed in furs and covered in warpaint. "You have passed the trials, stand-user. You may proceed to Morrisburg."

That's it for tonight, getting late. To be continued Friday night jojobros.
