42 players remaining.


[You wake up in a temporary barracks set up behind an amusement park. The weather is chilly but pleasant, and there aren't any lines for the rides - in fact, it seems you have this place to yourself. The entire park appears to have been abandoned some years ago, and though everything is in working order, it is overgrown with plants and seems rusted and unsafe.

As for you, something has happened, though you aren't sure what. There's a throbbing pain in your head, and you can't focus, as though you're coming off heavy pain medications. However you think you should look, you look like a human now. Under the bandages wrapped around your temple, old and smelling like blood, you'll find a recently stitched up scar wound and the inability to focus on your memories. You have no knowledge of how you came to be here; you may even have forgotten certain aspects of your life, or feel confused about them. The fact of your missing memories is obvious, a dark blank spot. Under the bandages around your wrist, you'll find a brightly colored bracelet, decorated with the face of the smiling cartoon animal on your wall, embedded into your flesh. It beeps a merry tune and welcomes you to DreamLand Fun Park. Just then, a voice comes over the loudspeaker.]

"Good morning to all of our new guests! The park is now open! We'll get started later, but for now, have a magical day with your new friends! Oh, and there may be a few nasty side effects to your medical condition. If you meet someone having trouble adjusting to reality, please be polite!"

[In your room, you'll find a small box containing several personal items - no weapons, magical items, or technology advanced beyond the early 21st century, and nothing dangerous, but otherwise anything you would ordinarily find on your person is there. Of course, nothing with cell reception or internet connectivity can manage to pick up a signal.

If you swipe your bracelet against the steel door, it unlocks. You may now explore your accommodations, or venture out into the park.]

Certainly. In this kind of situation, it is better to work together.

[UNTIL THEY LEARN ABOUT VIPS BUT HEY.]

I am Pekoyama. Would that we were meeting under better circumstances.

[WON'T IT BE GREAT WHEN THEY LEARN ABOUT THE VIPS?!]

If we work together, I'm sure we can turn this around. You seem like you know your way around--I'm sure we're not the only ones.

Indeed. Though I have my classmates, it is good to know there are others who might be willing to work with me.

I'm sure they'll prove a valuable resource for you. [He rubs the bracelet on his wrist again.]

I'll get to this in a bit, but before that... I've already looked around, and didn't see much of note except a few areas where my bracelet started beeping. What about you?

The petting zoo... is not very well kept.

[Peko... Peko, is that really something important...]

However, the animals were still alive, which means that someone or several someones had been tending to them, if sporadically, before our collective arrival. That someone or someones may be the ones behind our kidnapping. If we can find them...

Or, it could also mean that this park was not abandoned as long ago as the vegetation would seem to suggest.

[Oh. Okay. That's actually not that bad.]

Hm... [It takes a moment, but he sees the merit in her idea once she goes on to explain it.]

We could have a small group stake it out, and see if anyone who isn't apart of our "group" comes to feed them.
