| Ninja Contest - Day 2 | Started by: Rock_Lee on Oct 20, '07 04:01 |
|
Day two and everyone is as anxious as when the contest was announced. Lee is very pleased, and wastes no time Hello everyone. I'd like you to know that this is day two, but still stage 1. What does that mean? That means this is still all very easy. I expect this contest to reach stage 2. I hope it reaches stage 3. Any contestant who makes it to stage 3 is quite a worthy opponent. Getting into it. Same rules for the most part. However: -You can only give two answers total. They can be given at any time in the 24 hours. But a third or fourth answer, etc. will not be counted, even if it is correct. -My generosity will decrease as each day passes. -You are ninjas, but that does not mean you have to do everything alone. If you'd like to team up with someone, by all means, do so. You will both get credit for the answer as long as you BOTH give the answer separately in the streets. -I'll try to make sure the task is understood from the beginning =) laughs to himself a little, and continues Task #2 There is someone who walks these streets. There are many who walk these streets but I am looking for someone specifically. This person does not "walk", though. This person has chosen another mode of transportation through the streets. This person is very classical, and may be seen in a ballroom from time to time. This person boasts about their special friend while walking the streets. This person does not like Salsa, nor do they Waltz their way to the streets. Polka dots are not this person's style, nor have they been on a Swing. There isn't a single Twist in this person's personality, and this Fox does not Trot. Who is this person? Good Luck everyone. Remember, answers given in mail will be ignored. However, you can ask questions if you don't understand something. Have fun! With that, Lee vanishes to a near-by roof. He watches his pupils look at each other in confusion for a moment. He chuckles from his high-roof top, then turns around, and does a little research for the next task. He is quite excited that the contest has turned out so well. |

Lucks once tried his hand at ballroom dancing. The results were someone disastrous, though. Really, it wasn't his fault that the waltz is in 3/4, but the dance instructer lost all patience with him and sent him (and his two left feet) packing. Discouraged, it had been years since he had made his way onto the dance floor. This puzzle made him nervous, as he worried that an unannounced second part would require the successful performance of the dance. Therefore, he resolved to face his fear and return to dance class. Lucks caught a cab to a downtown dance studio in Chicago and immediately found a list of available classes. Scanning the list, he came across the dance he was looking for--the Argentinian Tango. Before he could enroll, however, he became distracted by a parade of women leaving a studio in tights and leotards. Needless to say, Lucks forwent the dance lessons in favor of something more his style. |

Kermit the frog reads task 2 and hurries off to figure it out. After several hours her returns. Well Mr. Rick_Lee this one at first stumped me quite a bit. A mafioso with a dance name??? As i had almost given up on myself i was heading home when i couldn't help but realize a passerby doing a very odd foreign jig. His name was DoTheMilkDance and he had to be one of the oddest characters id ever seen. I thought to myself there is no way that this fellow could be the one you described and just then i noticed another man in the crowd that i had seen several times before and it hit me of course... TANGO. I walked over, said hello, and was on my way. KTF leaves with a smile and a slight hop in his step |

DoTheMilkDance appears out of thin air, kneeling in front of Rock_Lee. It is my friend Tango that you are searching for. In a flash, DoTheMilkDance vanishes into thin air and is replaced by a trunk. |

VindicareAssassin rushes through the streets, cloaking himself in the shadows. He moves with speed and grace, and is never seen. With Rock_Lee's clue in mind, he scourges the streets of the five cities, searching for this mysterious mafioso/a. As he moves along in silence, he hears a sound. The sound is a voice. A women's voice. "Rubki. Oh, Rubki. You are the bestest friend a girl could ever ask for. May you rest in peace, my sweet Rubki." VindicareAssassin turns the corner, and before him sees a woman kneeling before a lamppost. Attached the lamppost is a bouquet of flowers, and a card. This must no doubt be the place where Rubki had been murdered. The woman leaves, her eyes wet with tears. As she vanishes into the distance, VindicareAssassin sidles up to the lamppost, and sneaks a peek of the card attached to it and the bouqet of flowers. "Rest in Peace, Rubki. Your one and only, Tango". With a smile on his face, VindicareAssassin rushes back to Rock_Lee's hideout with the answer ready at hand, stopping a moment to watch BrianArao take potshots at each and every twin he happens to come across |

Got_milk appears from behind a cloth with a picture of a wall on it. "I have traveled to the books and to the graveyards looking for this person. At first I thought you meant the infamous DiscoDuck but then I realized that he was not alive and that I would not find him in a ball room. I then turned and saw DoTheMilkDance but thought surely this challange would not be about a fellow ninja plus his dance was not very classical. As I wandered the streets I noticed someone coming towards me. He was doing an odd dance I had never seen so i asked him his name and what his dance was." he responded. "my name is tango and i love to do the tango" " therefor i believe the answer is tango" Got_Milk disappears. |

| Holding a candle with a black flame, ProphetOfDoom drips wax onto a piece of paper with the word Tango. | |

Earlier today, I was meandering down the sidewalk pondering the riddle you, sensei, had laid before us. I came across the one person on cardboard Doing the milk dance. I thought to myself, this is a unique way to travel, as I looked around at his belongings I saw he had "no little friend". So I immediately disregarded him as my answer. A few blocks more, I came across a single female actng strangely alone in an alley. When I approached her she was mourning the lost of her "little friend". When I asked what the matter was, all she could reply was, "Care to Tango?" So I say to you, my answer....Tango..... |

Ares, once again using his ninja prowess, creates a smokescreen in a secluded area of the town. He had been trailing a rookie ninja who was partaking in the competition, and Ares found himself wondering how he had even made it this far. Creeping up through the smoke, Ares grabbed the rival ninja round the throat, and with a swift slash of his claws, felled the man. Whilst rummaging through the dead Ninjas pockets, Ares found some chewing gum, a porno mag, a replica gun (amateur) and a slip of paper. Curiosity overtook Ares, and so he opened the slip of paper, on which laid a name "ThisIsntTheNameOfTheGuyWhoDances" Fuck! thought Ares to himself. But just then a man danced around the corner. He stopped for a little while in front of Ares, and did a short foxtrot. What a dipstick said Ares, and then continued to bludgeon the poor soul to death with his godly fists of PAIN!. As the dancing man was about to die, he whispered his name into Ares ear <stong>TANGO! Ow wtf! Ares shouted "That wasnt a whisper, whats up with this narration!?" Using his godly powers, Ares teleported to Rock Lee, and bestowed upon him the answerTango</stong> |

| Swifter than the wind and faster than lightning and seemingly out of no where Mercy appears and starts mimicking the dance known as the Tango then disappears into the night | |

| Rock_Lee feels a whisper just next to his ear. Looking around he sees nothing but a dart in the wall just behind him. There is a note attached to the dart. It readsTango | |

The Great Cthulhu undulates, writhing his tentacles, preparing to return to the alley once more. It is the second day of Rock Lee's Ninja Contest. The stars will be rightly conjoined in the heavens for a brief time, giving him the opportunity to make an appearance. Just like the old days. Riot and revel, blood-food and foulness, eternal twilight and nightmare and the screams of the dead and the not-dead and the chant of the faithful. No time for any of that though, not this trip anyways. Nope. Barely enough time to visit the dreams of a sleeping Earner, and a quick run to Geno's for a few cheese steaks wit'. Falling through the voids again. Not in the spaces you know but between. Undimensioned and unseen to you. Plunging from world to world. Goin' to Philly, Slick. Oh gott damn. The Great Cthulhu takes but an instant to invade the sleep of a handful of men and women. Classical person, dance related, boasting about a special friend. Hmmm. Various individuals doing the Hustle, hustlin' all over the place with a hustle-hustle-hustle here and a hustle-hustle-hustle there. Somethings not quite right there though. No that is why he he has settled upon one specific individual. Someone who is paying homage to a special friend named Rubki. The Great Cthulhu chuckles to himself because the name makes him think of Rubik, and of the aeons he has spent playing with Rubik's damnable 11-dimension Calabi-Yau non-manifold space cube. The Great Cthulhu has a lot of spare time on his hands. It gets a l'il boring waiting for the good times. Good old carnage and destruction, sacrifice and damnation, ichor and slime and ooze, and foul and nameless games. May-un..when the Great Cthulhu gets his chance he will leave this world a cold cinder orbitting a lightless sun. I guess sometimes you just have to wait for the really good stuff. The Great Cthulhu, answer ascertained, sluggles his way throught the black portal and into the alleyway, squeezing through the tight opening. Slavering and gibbering like Lindsay Lohan on a binge after a three day stint at rehab, The Great Cthulhu shambles his way towards a platform and squats upon it. The answer for todays contest was easy enough. The Great Cthulhu, who slimed out of the dark stars when your most eldritch nightmares were suckling at their mothers' pseudomammaria is no dummy. Ng'pnth mgwl'wffl Tango ia! ia! (The one whom you seek is Tango). Green sticky Star-Spawned Cthulhu sluggles his way back to the tenebrous opening and enters the portal. The Great Cthulhu may be an immense stumbling mountain-sized monument to all that is evil but he's a dancing fool. Hell, They've all taken turns dancing for Azathoth. Tango, Lambada, bossa-nova, wHaTeVaH! Fact is, The Great Cthulhu is a dancing fool. One time he was doing the robot at Nyarlathotep's vigintillionth birthday party and he had all the Outer Gods screaming "Go Cthulhu! Go Cthulhu!". It was insane. Good times good times. Answer given, belly full of south philly cheese steaks, and evil on his foul and loathesome mind The Great Cthulhu returns to sunken R'lyeh, to sleep and dream until Rock Lee's next task is issued. |
