[i]Athena, who was standing outside the gate, sees you. She walks over.[/i]
"Christ... You look like you've just seen a ghost."

[i]Alyssa smiled up at Athena.[/i] "Cause I died!" [i]She called out, waving her arms frantically as she ran up to the woman. Her bright, green eyes were full of excitement, and it was understandable, considering what she had just witnessed. Alyssa stopped two feet away from Athena, intertwining her prosthetic fingers and flesh ones together, sweat drenching her hair and forehead. Her simple, steel sword was drenched in the gross blood of the corpse, a blackish, gooey substance. Alyssa wiped the tar like stuff off of the blade impatiently with the silver gauntlet on her left hand.[/i] "Guess what?" [i]She said, literally bouncing with excitement.[/i] "I just saw unrested souls posses the bodies buried at Graveyard Island! And, if you take a look at this...." [i]Wiping the gauntlet clean on her combat pants, Alyssa pulled a book from a drawstring bag on her back. The cover was old and worn, the book itself ancient, titled "Magics Most Malicious, Volume 16". She flipped through to the middle of the massive tome, to page 1266. Quoting, she read aloud: [/i] "The day All Hallow's Eve Falls on the sixth day of the week A great evil shall arise And only the strong shall claim their prize. From the ground, the fallen shall wake Their corpses neither weak nor fake To execute the Witch's will, They shall climb from Goldner's Hill. The seas shall turn red All the wildlife has fled And after all Seven have finally bled The sun shall rise again." [i]After finishing, Alyssa shivered, grinning at Athena.[/i] "It's Saturday, October 31st, or Halloween, also called All Hallow's Eve. The fallen have awaken; I saw zombies! They didn't fall after being struck, meaning they're not weak.... Dunno 'bout the rest, though. This is like, hundreds of years old, miss!"

"Riiiiiggghhht... You sure you didn't hit your head or something?"

[i]Alyssa frowned slightly, gesturing towards the dojo.[/i] "You this [i]this[/i] is far-fetched? Have you [i]seen[/i] the people at this place?" [i]Alyssa chuckled, shaking her head.[/i]

"I've seen crazy shit many times. But you sound like a insane babbler right now."

"I... okay...." [i]Alyssa blushed, frowning as she looked away. It was clear that she was a rather sensitive person, easily influenced by others.[/i] "Sorry to waste your time...." [i]She sighed, beginning to walk away.[/i]
