THIS RP IS INVITE ONLY!! If you want to join, then ask on the talkpage!

Plot
There are rumors of a legendary treasure hidden in the Mobian Desert, deep within the Desert Ocean Zone! But the trip there most certainly won't be easy, and, to make matters worse, a mysterious being known only as The Doberman Pharaoh will make sure the treasure stays in its place! But is this treasure truly worth taking? Or is it best left where it rests...?

Rules

 * 1) No godmodding
 * 2) No steering the plot off course or making it revolve around your character(s)

 * 4) No random fighting

Prologue
''[In the Mobian Desert, in the Desert Ocean Zone...a large temple sits in the sands, hidden by a vicious sandstorm. A big, dog-like beast in Pharaoh's attire stands at the very top of the temple...]''

???: .......

[Then, two strange little creatures fly out of the temple, joining the dog monster.]

??? 3: Ahh, the sandstorm looks nice today!

??? 2: .....

??? 3: Eh-he...

??? 2: [Rolls her eyes]

??? 3: To be honest, I actually kinda hope some fools try and get in here. I'm so bored...

??? 2: You're always bored.

??? 3: Well there's not much to do here unless people actually try and invade...

Part 1
[In Station Square...]

Scratchy: {"What should we do, Johnny?"}

Johnny: Well... we can head over to the arcade and play it over there.

Scratchy: {"Cool!"}

''[Meanwhile, Linebeck happens to be looking over an old book of sorts. Cinnamon the Rat peeks over his shoulder without the ferret noticing.]''

Cinnamon: Whatcha reading?

Linebeck: [Jumps and nearly drops the book] JE- [straightens up] Don't scare me like that!

Cinnamon: Oops, sorry.....whatcha reading?

Linebeck: A book on ancient history in the Mobian desert.

Cinnamon: That sounds boring... >.>

Linebeck: If you knew anything about ancient history, you'd know that there's usually interesting artifacts left over from these ancient civilizations.

Cinnamon: Really?

Linebeck: Yes really.

Cinnamon: It still sounds boring...

Linebeck: ಠ_ಠ

(Back with Johnny and Scratchy, he happens to stumble an arcade game, in which the points read "9998", which would indicate that there are 9,998 tickets inside this arcade machine. He looks determined)

Johnny: Do want. o3o [inserts a coin into a machine]

(Outside the city, Alasdair roamed a field, heading back to town after a good hunt.)

Alasdair: Good to be home.

(Back with Johnny, he presses the button at the exact moment before the machile triggers an alarm as an acheivement)

Johnny: w00t! I did it, Scratchy! I--

(Suddenly, the machine bursts into a wave of tickets that washes both Johnny and Scratchy away and outside of the arcade room, which then creates a barricade)

Vegas walked by and saw the huge wave of tickets.

Vegas: O_O; Oh wow you guys really know how to play those games.

Johnny: [emerges out of the pool of tickets he won; gasps for air] That was.... awesome... Sratchy...!

Scratchy: [also gets out for air; gasping] Sneas... sneas... sneasel! (Easy... for you... to say!)

(Johnny then gets up to his feet and sees Vegas)

Johnny: [sees Vegas, despite his blurry vision] Vegas?

Vegas: Yeah, it's me John, how the heck did you manage....? *She began using her finger to circle around the array of tickets.

Johnny: [chuckles] I guess you could say that luck was on my side.

Scratchy: [groans, then gets up and looks at Vegas] Sne? Sneasel sne? (Huh? Who are you?)

Alasdair walks by seeing the scene, confused by it's nature. "How the hell did you end up like this?"

In the Desert Ocean Zone...


 * (Jon- Should I bring Jeremy in?)
 * (Ryu-Sure.)
 * (Jon- 'kay)

(Jeremy is walking through the desert, wearing robes around his head and sunglasses, to prevent windy sand from impairing his vision and looks around)

Jeremy: [thinking] ''Hmm... this place seems familiar... if I'm correct, there might be some treasures somewhere in this desert, which could make me a fortune.''

''[As he continues to walk, he comes across what appears to be a massive sandstorm! But strangely, it is not moving from its spot. It's like a sandstorm wall...]''

Jeremy: [thinking] Huh... a sanstorm? Heh, why stand here when I can make an attempt to walk through it...?

(He then attempts to approach the sandstorm wall, in hoping he can walk through it. The wind is whipping harshly around him, and he's being battered by the sand.)

Jeremy: [is forced to crawl slowly and uses one arm to defend himself from being hit by the sand; thinking] ''Damn... this sand's hitting me then and there, and my aquakinetic is too inneffective against this kind of weather... I just got to hold my ground and keep moving.''

(Jeremy struggles to nagivate through the harsh sandstorm as he continues along the way. There doesn't seem to be an end to the sandstorm...)

Jeremy: [growls; thinking] ''Why won't this storm end...?! It's like I never seen a light or anything like that... I guess I'll have no choice but to use aquakinesis, even if it's a risky attempt. Fire might not work well with water, but what about sand? Only one way to find out!''

(Jeremy then charges up for a water attack, in an effort to combat the sandstorm. Eventually, he summons a giant wall of water which then obstructs the sandstorm! The giant wall of water crashes through, agitating the sand on either side of the wave. The water wall and the sandstorm almost seem to be combating each other.)

Jeremy: [doing everything in his power to combat the sandstorm] GGRRRAHHH!!!! I refused to be pushed around by this annoying sandstorm!

[An opening starts to show through to the other side.]

Jeremy: Hm? [sees an opening while still combating the sandstorm]

''[It grows larger, revealing clear air on the other side. Jeremy hurriedly heads over there as the water wall Jeremy left is losing power against the trechareous sandstorm. In the distance, he can see what looks like an enormous temple!]''

Jeremy: [looks at the temple] A temple, huh? I bet there are artifacts or anything that's worth the steal and make me a quick buck or two... [chuckles evilly as he approaches to the temple, only to have a swirling mass of glowing symbols appear in front of him after a few steps!]
 * (Ryu-Hey guys, you better hurry, Jeremy's already at the temple! :U)
 * (Jeremy: Try and catch me if you can, kiddies. >:3)
 * (Charlene: Challenge accepted.)

(Meanwhile with the Trolls, they are wandering around to find the temple, with Liam lost along the way)

Cloud: Where is Liam?

Macabre: Liam was with us a while ago.

Punchout: Eh.

(With Liam...)

Liam: Hello? Where am I? Toxic? Cloud? Macabre?? [wanders around, which makes him even more lost]

[Back at the temple, the two little creatures observe the swirling mass of symbols from inside the temple, looking out of a balcony window.]

Faust: Oooh, looks like there might be a fight!

''[The symbols compress into a sphere which ruptures roughly a second after its creation, causing a Panther and a five-tailed fox to spill out onto the sands! After a few seconds of gathering her senses the Panther rises, only to find her companion already on her paws.]''

Panther: H-How..?

Fox: You forget my age, hun: I've been through many a rough warp in my time.

Panther: Oh, right. ^_^"

(A couple miles away an airship is flying towards the sandstorm...)

Pixel: Ahhh yes we're closing in on the storm Sledge.

Sledge: *Sarcasticly* Fantastic, iv'e always wanted to study a freakin' sandstorm in the middle of a fuggin' desert!! *Sighs* Remind me what we're doing here Pix?

Pixel: You just said so yourself, we're here to study that sandstorm. From what i understand this storm does not move nor die down, it's almost like a giant wall.

Sledge: Uh huh, and I'm here because.....?

Pixel: Protection from any "Undesireable creature" that may be lurking around.

Sledge: Yes, because ice is very effective in the desert. Don't forget Screw head, i don't do well in the heat.

Pixel: That's what that armband i gave you is for, it will keep your body at an extremely low temprature.

Sledge: That still dosen't help the fact that ice attacks aren't any good in the desert.

Pixel: We'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

[Back near the temple, with Absinthe and Faust still watching from the balcony...]

Faust: [To Absinthe] Should we activate the Guardian?

Absinthe: Not yet...let's see where this goes...


 * (Tempted to forge ahead without Jon, but that'd be both rude and destroy any sort of chance of interaction between Jeremy and the girls... - Hunt)
 * (Ryu-Wonder where he is..)
 * (Donno. Maybe he had plans. -Hunt)
