As the sun rose in the distance and birds sang their song, all seemed right and well in the city of CREATORVERSE.

But today was a special day, because as you looked over the town square, a new shop stall had appeared.

“Come get your hot chocolate!” The owner yelled. “Hot chocolate and freshly baked cookies! Come get them while they’re hot! Want cotton candy or candy floss? We have that to! All for the simple price of a dollar, come and get it! If you get hot chocolate and a snack, it’ll be a simple fifty cents! Come one, come all! Get some hoooooot chocolate!”

It was time.

When it became six o’clock, something… strange happened to everyone who bought anything from the stand, regardless of if it was consumed or not.

They turned into raccoons.

Orca huffed, stretching and reaching under the counter- muttering things under their breath. They pulled on something, and the entire stall vanished with a ball of smoke. When it cleared, Orca was nowhere to be seen, and the stall nowhere to be found, either.

After some time, alarms started going off in the council building.

The city of Ayoth is crisp and dry- a desert as dry as the Sahara with the sun shining brightly above them. Shandy lands the minivan in front of Lorel’s account stand and instantly flies out of the car, searching.

Lorel isn’t there.

She sighs and goes back into the van, reaching up and above her head to pull down a bunch of water bottles.

“Ayoth is extra dry and hot today!” She said as she started handing out water bottles. “Use these to stay hydrated! If we can’t find any clues here then we’ll have to keep going!”

[creatorverse-official]

When Shandy woke up, she went around to try and see if anyone had found Lorel or not.

Unfortunately, no one had found her.

With a sigh, Shandy made sure everyone knew to head back to the van before going back herself to prepare and plot the next stage of the trip- their destination? Lorel’s account stand in Ayoth.

It was time to get going.

As night starts to fall and some early birds choose to sleep, the van arrives in the city of Tumlier. Houses are packed tightly together, aged and perhaps a bit broken. The van lands on the ground of one of the dirty, one-way streets- bouncing a little as it slowed to a stop.

They were now in front of Lorel’s “account stand” in the city, but she was not there. Shandy pressed a button, opening the doors to the van.

“Okay,” She said, fighting through a yawn. “Everyone out. Go grab snacks while you search for Lorel or something, I heard your questions earlier.” She had been going to follow, but one of the Creators pulled her to the side. They managed to talk her into going to sleep, which she did so in the driver’s seat without prompt.

With the night, and perhaps part of the next morning, to spend searching for Lorel here, they were going to make the most of it.

Hey~! Mod Shandy here!

Yeah, I have work tomorrow so I can’t stay up till three doing this- but we have now arrived in Tumlier! Feel free to explore and to find clues!

And for those who might try to take control and snatch the van away while I’m sleeping- you can’t. The van only listens to me.

Thank you! Have fun!

[creatorverse-official]

After a good rest from their long, hard battle, it is time to set off again. Shandy, now I’m higher spirits, started up the van and made sure that everyone had everything that they needed before taking off. It would be a long journey to Twailon, but it would be worth it in the hopes of finding Lorel.

It was a beautiful morning in Creatorverse. The sun rose in the distance, and soon the city would be brought to life.

While the vast majority of people were preparing to head out for the day, some people were returning home from graveyard shifts. Others were preparing to go to school, and soon the air was filled with the pained tears of those who were still in school as they all groaned in unison, nearly shaking the floating island with the force of it.

Of the many people who lived on this island, Shandy and Ly were two of the ones currently awake.

“How did you sleep?”

“Well enough, could always have more. You?”

“I also slept pretty good.”

The conversation was a part of their morning routine, and while sometimes the answeres differed, it was something that helped Shandy wake up just that little bit more, so that she could better get her day going. However...

“Is Lorel up yet?”

“... I’m not sure.” Ly confessed, frowning in both thought and concern. “She’s normally up after us, yeah?”

Shandy nodded, her wings fluttering a little. “Yeah, but... usually she wakes up to the smell of breakfast and zooms down the stairs. She hasn’t done that yet...”

“Ya know, if you want, I can take over breakfast for a bit.” Ly offered. “That way you can check on our angel.”

Shandy nodded, offering the spatula to Ly. Once the whole transition was done, Shandy was walking upstairs- towards Lorel’s room.

“Lorel?” She asked, knocking on her door. “Are you okay? Can I come in?”

...

No response.

Worried, Shandy opened up the door slowly, peeking her head in.

Moments later she rushed downstairs, rushing to grab her things and calling her work to let them know that she wouldn’t be in today.

“Shandy?” Ly asked, confused. “What’s wrong? What happened?”

“Lorel’s gone.”

———————————————————————————————

Time passed. Soon enough, the entire city had been searched- but no one could find Lorel. The only thing that had been left behind was Lorel’s phone- making calling her or tracking her down nearly impossible.

And it was because of that that, just after noon, Shandy stood up on top of the statue in town square.

“I need a search team!” She exclaimed. “A group of people who are willing to help us find Lorel!”

Several others cheered, raising their hands in unison, ready to help. There were far too many for just any kind of means for transportation- so Shandy pulled out the new and improved Minivan2.0. She opened the doors wide.

“ALL ABOARD THE MINIVAN!” Ly shouted through a megaphone, ringing a bell. “THE ADVENTURE WILL START SOON!”
