It wasn't her duty to save Hallow's Eve, Captain Sparkles wasn't even done with her own homeplane! What a burden it is to be part of the Magistry network. "Focus babe, the computers are gone." A handsome black haired man said next to the elf, adorned in a slim-fitted buttoned red jacket and slim black pants. "It's not even just the computers, it's a pretty big virus hitting us this moment." Sparkle only looked from behind him, obviously unintelligible with technology. "You're a wizard, how do YOU know about computers?" Sparkle asked firmly, rubbing her chin as she watched quietly. The charming Magister, Sen, turned around and winked to the pretty Christmas elf. "You're a Winternestran, how do YOU know about the earth being a sphere?" Before Sparkles could even respond Sen cut her off. "Books." Sparkles could have been interested in Sen, if he just wasn't so raunchy and crude. With his fingers tapping rapidly across the keyboard, flying past a myriad of black windows on the screen, white text traveling faster than Sparkle's eyes could focus. A loud DUN was heard throughout the library when Sen's fingers stopped. "HAH! OH you're clever-wait-OH OH OH! OOH!" Sen's words were filled with glee, pulling out his glasses, handing them off to Sparkles. "Ok, you just keep watch on this computer, talk to me through the sphere, I have to run to check how far this virus has spread." With another wink and a pat, Sen dashed out the library, leaving Captain Sparkles with a computer. Looking at the screen with a big black window in the center, she looked for a chair to sit. As Sparkles turned, the computer made another noise, a noise that sounded like laughter. The electronic laughter slowly became broken words, which slowly developed to full sentences. Due to her lack of knowledge with computers, Sparkle just panicked as the computer began speaking, the LCD screen glowing green. "SHHAHHKKK-UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS OF FOREIGN ORIGIN-HA-HAHASHKK. CANNOT AcC3S2. CAnN0T HAACcESS. COMMUNICATIONS OFFLINE. COMMUNICAHAHATIONS ONLINE. REMOTE AUTHeNTICATION gRanT3D v1A, H.H. AnSw3R thE FoLLowinG Qu3Sti0N My left hand is longer than my right hand, but why does my right hand move slower than my left hand?" Great, riddles that have to do with modern day objects, another thing Sparkle's unfamiliar with. With the great captain out of the way, and Sen's brilliant mind put to use elsewhere, who was going to answer this riddle?

Math textbook in hand, and a frustrated mind, Ari was giving up studying in the library. A hot coffee or hot chocolate was calling her name at the Enso Cafe and the calling was loud. She had just walked past the computer lab when a haunting laughter floated out of the open door. Stopping frozen in her tracks she let her memory take a train backwards. Letting her ears concentrate solely on the sound, Ari listened. “My left hand is longer than my right hand, but why does my right hand move slower than my left hand?" Ari knew that voice. She heard it last year almost immediately after joining the school. Without a doubt she was sure it was the Hallow Herald. Who could forget his eerie Halloween-y voice and his ghostly mount? Peaking her head into the computer room of the library she saw the Winternestran cheerleader captain Sparkles glaring rather chillingly at the computer while at the same time it was obvious she was starting to freak out. She hadn't seen anyone leave the lab, so she had no idea the Wizard Sed was running rampant throughout the halls of the library. Taking a few steps into the room Ari cleared her throat to gain Sparkle's attention. If she remembered right, and she was sure she was, Sparkles was not always the most friendly of the Winternestran Cheerleaders. “I don't know how much help I could be Captain, but I can try my best to help. I wouldn't want our seasonal ghost to feel like we weren't putting in an effort to solve his riddle.” Without waiting for her to say anything Ari walked in deeper and pulled out a rollie computer chair next to Sparkles and sat down to look at the glowing screen. ”It's defiantly the Hallow Herald. I'd remember that shade of green anywhere. So.... any ideas? Ari had nothing better to do than help the distressed cheerleader in solving this riddle. Math wasn't important anyways. So letting her textbook fall rather ungracefully on the floor she kicked it against the wall. She'd get it later... if she remembered or cared that is. |

"Raising hell one day at a time."

Claire was flustered beyond all hell that her physics lesson for the dum dums in her class was being foiled by some stupid knight amidst green flames on a computer screen. Honestly, was his presence necessary? And if so, WHY IN THE LIBRARY!? Trying to calm herself, Claire made herself over to someone she recognized form the glitter zombie fest. It was Ari and she was with.......a cheerleader? "Lovely....." “My left hand is longer than my right hand, but why does my right hand move slower than my left hand?" "So.... any ideas?" Claire coughed out loud, to officially make her presence known to the others. Waving her hand through her hair, Claire looked at the screen a couple of times as she thought about the herald's words. Chuckling a bit, Claire developed a smile on her perfect unblemished face. "He's referring to a clock. The left hand, or the minute hand is bigger then the right hand also known as the hour hand. The reason why the hour hand or the right hand moves slower is because the left hand has to rotate a full 360 from 12 before it can move. " |

The voice of the computer carried over to where Kiefer was sitting reading. Honestly who would use one of those voice programs anyway. Their so pathetic, and they mispronounce so many words. Kiefer ears then perked up slightly, that wasn't what those programs sounded like. Kiefer walked over to the screen and let out a slight chuckle as he saw the riddle. It was simple enough, but why spoil it for everyone else. He was more amused though by the fact that a virus would be asking riddles, honestly some programmer was having a good laugh somewhere. |

SO GET OFF MY LAWN!

Miyo was in the library, reading up on some random Earth customs (he offended someone the other day and didn't know why) when he heard the voice. Miyo looked up and walked towards the computer, wondering why it was speaking, when he saw the big riddle on the computer screen. He smiled and looked up, seeing the clock right above the computers. Of course he had to be talking about one of the Earth time-keeping devices, if only because the right hand moves much slower than the left does, and the left is much longer. It only made sense. Miyo smiled at the other people and looked at some others. They looked kind of confused. Miyo decided to help them out by pointing to the time-keeping device. "It has to be one of those. See the left hand is bigger, but the right hand only moves once the left turns a full circle?" Miyo asked in a quiet voice, looking at the wall instead of the people. Miyo thought it had to be that, but he could be terribly wrong. It could be something like a comb. Who knew with these Earth jokes? |

"It could be a clock, but the hands of a clock change positions all the time. Each have time when they're the left hand and the right hand. And sometimes, they're the same." Jo stood behind Miyo and smiled, peeking her head around his shoulder. Walking out from behind him so she was completely visible, she looked at all the people who had accumulated because of the strange voice. There was a strange cheerleader who looked like she belonged in Christmas Town, two girls, a guy, and Miyo. "I heard the voice... and the riddle. It's a bit scary though." She grasped Miyo's arm and looked to the computer, "A clock does make sense..." |

"And a clock it is my loves~" Sen mewed with his lovely voice, leaning his back onto a bookcase, acting cool for his campaign to win the supposedly heartless Captain Sparkles over. Like usual, there was a smirk on his cheeks. He was loving every moment of this, "HH" was sending out a thinking game, which is exactly what Sen's good at, aside a few other things of course. "For a suit of armor that can hack into a system and distract ME while you send a riddle, that riddle of yours was a little disappointing." Even though the students were helpful, Captain Sparkle never felt so much at ease when she heard Sen's charming voice. The library's lights blacked out for a moment, letting the green computer screen be the only source of illumination in the library. "Dun dundun, dun dun dun DUN" A chilling rhythm of slightly high piano notes filled the library, followed by the 'virus's laughter. "HAHAHAHA C0RR3CT!" The computer screen's light flickered and everything became black, followed by a grunt and a feminine moan coming from behind the students. Clever Sen and brave Sparkles were gone, and the computer glowed green once more. It was only the children and the computer. |AN2W3R Th3 F0l10w1nG QU32ti0N:| I HAVE A LONG SET OF KEYS, BUT NONE OF THEM ARE FOR DOORS. WHAT ARE THEY FOR? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Kiefer stared at the new riddle dumfounded. There were so many possible answers it wasn't even funny. Honestly, the various fields nowadays that used keys made the riddle annoying as hell. Well he would have to guess. Kiefer spent a few seconds mentally narrowing down the list in his head to two possible ones, each from a different field. |

Miyo smiled when he felt the familiar grasp of Jo's hand on his arm. He turned around and hugged her close, blushing a little. He missed her more than he thought he would, and after that incident in the Murial Grounds, he was surprised that she still wanted to be around him. So he hugged her a little more tightly and refused to let go. If he did that, maybe she would stay... "Don't worry." He whispered for her ears alone. "I'll protect you. Promise." I HAVE A LONG SET OF KEYS, BUT NONE OF THEM ARE FOR DOORS. WHAT ARE THEY FOR? Miyo listened to the riddle and his eyes lit up. This one was easy! The keys were clearly for... ((OOC: I'm a tease.)) |

Smiling and blushing, Jo returned the hug. The room flcikered dark and some noises made their way to her ears. What was it? Still keeping her arms around him, she looked up at him, "I know. I trust you." The next riddle came quickly and the answer entered Jo's head immediately. "Oh, I see..." But she stopped. There were multiple keys that weren't for doors. Was the answer really so simple? She looked to Miyo, and then around. Someone... no, two people were missing, "Miyo... some people are gone... the cheerleader, and the other person... where'd they go?" |

"Mother f-" A familiar voice came from the computer, as both Sen and Sparkles appeared as pixelated sprites on the glowing green computer screen. "Don't worry babe, I'll get u-HAHAHAHA" With a quick flicker, the two pixel figures vanished, leaving just the constant laughter of the virus. The same chime filled the library, and the same laughter followed that rhythm of piano keys. "HAHAHAHA C0RR3CT!" |AN2W3R Th3 F0l10w1nG QU32ti0N:| I am orange but I'm not a color.

 The library quaked as the computer screen flickered, a familiar voice emitting from the poor quality in-built speakers. "Come on my princess, this way!" Leaping out of the tiny screen, Sen and Sparkles re-emerged from their digital prison. Standing tall, Sen emerged with something he didn't possess before. He was holding a strange magical cane, some portions of it were embellished in gold, while the staff was made of wood. He scanned around the students and spotted Jo, smiling and tossing the cane to her. "He told me to give you this, don't ask. That was fun wasn't it?" Sen said as he grinned. "Come on, we have to hurry, he's waiting for us." Sparkles nodded in her stoic expression, looking at the other students who were probably still shocked over the couple emerging from a tiny computer screen. Sen grabbed onto Sparkle's hand, dashing quickly towards the open exit. "This way! Lets go!" Sen yelled, directing the children to follow them to the door. They passed levels and levels of book shelves, and as they neared the door, the doors suddenly sealed themselves. Out from one of the shelves by Sen's side, a silvery longsword sliced across the wood, directed to cutting his head off. Sen released Sparkle's hand, sliding down on his legs, effectively ducking beneath the sword, lifting one of his hands and blasting the armor away. Quickly getting to his feet, Sen turned to see suits of armor follow the children from behind, all with their swords unsheathed. "Captain, you get the back! I'll try to open the door!" Sparkles nodded, closing her eyes and tilting her head upwards, wisps of blue orbs circling her hands. A small puff of snow emerged in the air, a beautifully slim long sword dropping into her hands. Her eyes were glowing blue now, her stoic lips curling downwards into a frown. The captain was in fighting mode. The whole library was surrounded by these hollow suits of armor, all cornering towards their location. [This topic is going to merge with the main Halloween finale in the Murial Grounds in October 30th. IC time wise, it'll only be around 30-45 minutes.] The 'Winner' of the Daily Riddle Game is: Mariko12!

Jo steadied herself, looking around the library as it shook. The computer spoke and the two that had disappeared were free again! She watched as Sen looked around, but was confused when he looked to her. A cane was thrown her way and she caught it, fumbling just a bit, "H-He?" Sen said not to ask, so... she kept quiet from there. Quickly, grabbing Miyo's hand with her free one, she bolted toward the door where Sen and Sparkles had gone off to. Just as they were about to escape, they found their exit gone. Not only that, but suits of armor were now trying to chop off their heads. The cane quickly dropped into Jo's backpack, and with the press of a hot key button, a hammer emerged. It looked too big for a girl her age, but she had grown up dealing with heavy things, so this was normal. "You picked the wrong little girl!" Jumping forward, she brought her hammer around with all the strength she could muster, aiming to knock as many suits down as possible. She was almost wishing for the cane now, seeing as how it had to have some kind of use. *sigh* Deus ex machina's were so hard to come by nowadays. |

The armor that ambushed Sen was quickly flung into the air in large pieces as Sen snapped his fingers. He had enough power to defend the students for a few years in this situation, but there were more pressing matters at hand. Snapping his fingers left and right, more suits flung into the air in their main pieces, trying to clean up the back so Sparkles and the students would only need to worry about the front. "Back up everyone! We can't defend both sides!" Sparkles held her arms out to back the students up, moving the whole group so their backs were facing the door, leaving only their sides and fronts vulnerable to attack. By now, most of the passages were filled with living armor. Watching Jo charge bravely made the Elf Captain glad, this little girl's bravery definitely impressed Sparkles. As one was about to lash out as Jo during her sweep, Sen snapped his fingers once more to blow it into pieces. "Okay! Great! Just need some time to open this door!" Sparkles nodded and charged out with Jo, swords clashing loudly as she easily cut their foes down. "Oh...OHHH...OOH! This is complicated stuff! WOW! They set up a rift lock in mere seconds? This is really impressive, I almost don't want to take it apar-" "JUST DO IT!" Sparkles growled. Grumbling some words, Sen proceeded to look around the door, rubbing his hands all over the smooth wooden surface like a mad man. "This is going to take a while, just hold on." |
