The Cursed Town

The Cursed Town

0 INK

A town filled with curses. Do you have what it takes to break it? {More inside.}

2,251 readers have visited The Cursed Town since Sunflower created it.

Introduction

Image
ImageThis town was cursed many years ago by a vengeful witch who wanted nothing more than everyone to suffer through misery. She took one of their most treasured aspects of themselves and turned it into something that would cause them to be forever unhappy. These curses are much like the ones you would find in fairy tales. Only true love's kiss can break the spells.

But what if many of the townspeople choose to keep more to themselves and not try to talk to anyone or go much of anywhere because of their curse. Will they ever try to be happy and push past this horrible curse that has been cast upon the town. Though not only are the people cursed, the grounds itself is cursed as well. They are forced to live in constant darkness, the only light they get is from the moon and stars and the fluorescent lighting coming from lamps, flashlights, etc. Many of the plants in this town are dead and the only way to stop their only source of fresh air from dying out and them later in the process is for every curse in the town to be broken.

What will happen first?

Dialogue Color: #ff0055 || Location: Sleeping Willow

Ashton found herself walking through town, keeping her eyes upon the ground in fear that if she were to look at someone she would hallucinate their death and the thought would never leave her. It would just play in her mind over and over again like a horrible record.

She sighed, with each step kicking a rock across the ground. Ashton couldn't believe her home and everyone in it had been cursed. Many people in the town tended to keep more to themselves because they were ashamed of themselves and worried they would harm others. As for Ashton, the only person she would be harming is herself by being out in public.

As long as she hadn't looked at anyone, she would be fine. So most of the time Ashton is seen keeping her head down and minding her own business. That's all she really could do.

Upon reaching the cafe she stepped inside and took a seat at an empty table by the window and lifted the menu into her hands. The waitress made her way over towards her and spoke, "What would you like?" she heard the woman state.

Keeping all attention on the menu, she responded, "A coffee with a cheeseburger and fries please," she responded as she handed the menu over towards the waitress and immediately drew her attention down at the table with a soft sigh. It was depressing not being able to look at anyone without seeing them die but it was the only way she wouldn't' see those horrible visions while awake. In her sleep the dreams, there was no getting away from them.

With that Shay looked out her house window. Bad luck had not stroke her yet when she woke up but soon she would. She decided she didn't want to cook today and get her hand burnt like yesterday.

She changed into a pair of jeans and put on a t-shirt but with that she hit her head when she was putting the shirt over her head. As bad luck stuck again she fell down the stairs.

She was having a hard time in life since the cursing thing happened and with that she decided to walk to the place with good food. She walked and tripped over the sidewalk a few times but finally she made it with only a few bruises and the hand wrapped in bandages.

With that she ordered a coffee and then brought it to a table and sat.

Color Code: #FF82AB

Kelly has skipped school today. Why should she go anyway? To just listen and to some people to make fun of her speech impediment? Being a mute can be such a pain in the butt, Kelly was a person to always speak her mind, to always communicate. Now that curse really cursed the people it cursed with what hurt them the most. So this is why Kelly spend most of her morning in the library, which some of her close friends were confused because she did not spend time in the library for like never. But she was still there, reading about curses and witches and trying to find a solution to this. Most people that hit with the curse are ashamed and kept to themselves, who can blame them? She is also. But that curse might ruin her dream of being famous, to be able to sing which it is her favorite hobby, and this Kelly will try to break it if she can.

After a few hours of reading fairy tales of curses and psychic stuff, the only thing she got was that true love kiss thing. She suddenly felt hungry, she sigh and closed the books. Time for some food, I guess , she thought. She took her bag and stepped out of the library and quickly walked into the cafe. She noticed a few other people there and two girls already there, Kelly recognized them but she did not say anything. Mostly because she can not speak and second, one of them was doing holes with her eyes at the table to notice and the other one seems trying to stay still as to not hurt herself. Kelly just walked to the waitress, write on her notepad Fries, chicken nuggets and coke please . The waitress already knew Kelly's condition and nodded towards her. She smiled and took a seat at a table which was closer to the two girls, even though she was a mute, she was still not gonna be a loner. She waved at them with a smile and waited her food.

Ashlyn had headed into the cafe on a whim. She'd always liked their food, even back when she was younger. And while she had eaten there just the previous day, it didn't really feel that way, so she could eat a decent meal here and not really feel guilty. One benefit of not remembering things. Sure, her journal had informed her of all the major points she needed to know about as well as an overview of what had happened the prior day, but she was pretty bare bones with her descriptions, and she had lost so many of the specifics and details overnight.

She poured over the menu, taking in the multiple options. Many of them were familiar, but based on her opinion of the establishment, she figured it wouldn't be that bad to have to try something. Still, the lure of something familiar overcame her, so she decided on something she'd had countless times before setting the menu aside and flipping through her journal, trying to see if there was anything she might need to know for the day. The cafe was semi-full, and many of the people inside seemed so familiar. Albeit, the last clear mental image she'd had of anyone was from seven years back so that wasn't exactly helpful. The curse hadn't made her life unliveable, just highly frustrating at times.Β 

Her attention was pulled away from the book when the waitress coughed politely, then repeated her question. "I'll have a grilled chicken sandwich please." Sure, it was rather plain, but it was just the sort of thing that she was in the mood for. "Oh, and a coke please."

Zeke's eyes were watering as he left the house, so he blinked rapidly to refrain from crying. When his mother was like this, it was always better to just leave her be. It wouldn't do any of them any good to stick around. He felt a bit better with every long, quick step he took. He had no real destination, actually just wanted desperately to get away, so he walked and walked for as long as he could before his legs actually started to hurt. There, he approached the curb and sat down, resting his arms on his knees with a sigh of relief. At least right there, sitting on the sidewalk in front of a nearly empty cafe, no one around seemed to be feeling particularly bad, so neither did he. As ridiculous as he felt, that's where he decided to stay, so he made himself a little more comfortable, leaning to the right to support his head on his hand and started thinking.

This is what he thought everyday. This is what everyone thought, at least once a day. No matter how much time went by, people never actually seemed to get used to the new life in the city, if this could be called life at all. So, as always, he thought of days before. Days when his mother would actually cook him meals, talk to him, console him, and he could do the same. Days when he would have gotten in that cafe, sat down next to one of those girls and had a friendly conversation. Days when his life wasn't such a complete mess.

He looked inside and wondered if he should get in. He hadn't eaten in a while, but wasn't really hungry. As of lately, he didn't really eat that much anyways. Maybe, he thought, closing his jeans jacket closer around his torso, he could get in for a cup of hot chocolate, since it was pretty cold outside, but that too seemed an awful lot of unnecessary work and a waste of money. So, for a moment longer, he remained there, sitting alone on the sidewalk, and lifted his head to look at the moon. And it made him calm and happier, almost like he always used to feel.

At least he thought we still have something bright.

As Ashton sat there at the table, she heard some others stepping inside. She had to fight with herself not to look at them, though as hard as it was she had succeeded. Instead she glanced out the window, but that was when she noticed Ezequiel, he was lying upon the sidewalk, as he always had when he thought about grabbing something to eat. But just before she was able to remove her attention from him, she was forced to see a vision of him dying.

Ashton watched as a bus driver lost control and began swerving through the road. Before Ezequiel was able to make a single move, the bus crashed straight into the male and he went flying through the air and straight into the cafe through one of the windows. His bleeding was so bad that it hadn't taken him very long to die.

Once the vision was over, she immediately returned her attention back to the table. Apparently the waitress had been standing there with her food, trying to get her attention. "Ashton...Ashton. Are you alright?" the waitress stated as she finally sat the food down.

The female nodded her head at her words and spoke, "Could I get another muffin?" she questioned as she lifted her own into her hand along with her cup of coffee and stood to her feet.

The waitress began making her way back over to the counter, Ashton followed behind her. She pulled out her debit card to pay for the food before heading on her way out the door with the two muffins and her cup of coffee. Upon reaching Ezequiel, she carefully sat down, being sure not to look at him or anyone else on the street.

"Hey, how are you holding up?" she questioned as she handed him the muffin.

Before the curse, Ezequiel and Ashton couldn't quite get along very well. Though that all changed once the curse broke out all through the town. Since then, Ashton has been trying to push her feelings aside and at least try to get along with the man. After all, with this curse, there was nothing else to do. Life was already miserable enough without having to argue and fight with someone day in and day out.

Re: The Cursed Town

Ok, just one more question, I swear hahaha, do we have a post limit before replying to something or can I just go ahead and make like, two posts in a row?

Re: The Cursed Town

@Saerith: I'm willing to add more spots if needed. Character can be reserved and yes, feel free to change the CS as much as you want as long as all information is on it that I asked for. c:

Re: The Cursed Town

Also, is it ok to change the design of the CS?

Re: The Cursed Town

Oh, right, this.

ImageFace claim: Ezra Miller
Color code: I'll choose when building the character sheet, is that ok?
Curse: Feels the fear, pain or sorrow of anyone around him. Doesn't work for positive sensations (happiness, pleasure, etc)

Re: The Cursed Town

Hey, is that last character still open? If so, could I reserve it?

Re: The Cursed Town

Yeah, that could work.

Re: The Cursed Town

So Im thinking maybe my character has the curse of constant pain? haha I got nothing after that haha

Re: The Cursed Town

Not a problem. Just let me know when you figure something out.

Re: The Cursed Town

I somehow missed that so... Maybe can I get back to you with a curse? Haha

Re: The Cursed Town

@Lvdwilt2000: Reserved
@GreenEyedSue: Yes, that can be a curse. I like it.
@jericho193: Your character can be reserved but there is just one minor detail about your curse I'd like you to know. The land is cursed to no longer have any kind of sunlight until all curses in the town are broken so if your character is sensitive to any kind of light it would be the fluorescent lights used to see in the dark.

Re: The Cursed Town

Hey! This kind of looks cool!
