Today is the day... It’s Halloween! The day of spooks, the day of costumes, and the day of trick or treat! To celebrate this amazing day, you and a few other people head to a graveyard nearby... Why? I guess it’s just some challenge, or you just want to do it for fun. The only problem is... well... people have been disappearing by doing this... Some people say they fall into graves that have magically opened, and others say they disappear into a forest nearby. Either way, this is where your story begins. After your disappearance, you find yourself in an entirely different world. Some people end up in a dark, barren, abandoned, and dull environment that looks like an old village. Some end up in a place with a bustling crowd, colorful lanterns, and much more welcoming area. There are all kinds of areas people end up in, but somehow you and a few others still find each other. Of course that happens much later, I’m allowing you to explore a bit and get it all in your head! Good luck!

Bei had woken up to a chilly breeze flying through her window. She was groggy, like usual, making her forget what day it was or even where she was. She yawned and looked around the room, trying to gather any information that would answer her questions. It finally came to her, bringing a small glimmer to her eyes and filling her with excitement. Today, her and a few other kids in the neighborhood would go to the graveyard and see what all the fuss was about. To be honest, she only cared about spending time with them. She got out of bed and got ready, then rushed out the door.

Miru stretched her arms wide and yawned loudly. She stepped out of bed, trying to remember something. What was it? Oh yeah! She was gonna go with the other kids to the graveyard.

A gasp echoed through the dull halls of his home as Pedro awoke, sitting straight up, his eyes wide, alert. He spent a few seconds breathing heavily, his eyes darting to every corner of his room, searching for something that was not there. Eventually, he realised that it had been a dream, but found himself unable to enter the world of magic again. So, rather grumpily, he slipped out of his bed and trotted through to his kitchen which was, unsurprisingly, empty. He always slept in whatever clothes he'd had on, so didn't need to change before tossing on his jacket and leaping outside. There was a crisp wind to the day, so he tugged his jumper closer, his teeth chattering ever so slightly. Something unsettled him, but he couldn't be sure what, so decided to ignore it. For now.

She had decided that she should get some groceries before she met up with everyone. At least it was a 5 minute walk from her house, not that far. She could easily be back in time to still roam around and wait till nightfall. She didn’t quite know why, but she felt nervous about today. She wasn’t really sure what they were going to do over there... She tried shrugging the thoughts and feelings away, but buts of it still remained. She sighed and just continued walking, twisting the coins in her pocket around her fingers.

Miru walked to her bedside table and picked up her phone. She responded to all of her notifications and stuck it in her pocket. She was about to walk out, then turned around and also picked up her gaming device, which she slipped into her other pocket. "I'd better go and grab a snack or two from the store. Mom always has the worst snacks, and I'm going to get hungry, I know it." she mused to herself. She reached under her bed for the hand me down sneakers from her sister away at college and hunted in her messy closet for socks. When she was ready to go, she went downstairs. Oh. Her mother must be sleeping in. She always did that when she had to work night shifts. She made herself a piece of toasts, took some money from the plastic jar that her mom kept Small Spending Money in, stuffed it in her pocket, and headed towards the grocery store.
