An oddly well-built cabin suspended on stilts in the swamp. A ladder goes up to the door. It consists of a single room with a bed, and various survival items.

::Luke arrives at the Swamp Cabin, glancing at it to see where one would enter the home. He decides against going into the cabin and orbs to his penthouse.::

::Link slopes in with Navi and climbs the ladder up to the cabin. Entering, he dumps his gear on the floor and lays down on the bed, falling asleep.::

::Flies in landing on the roof of the cabin. She transforms back into human form and lies back on the roof her arms behind her for support.::

"This is screwed up."

::Shadow closes her eyes.::

::Rushing up the ladder, Tatum places a hand on the door and tries pushing it open. As the door yields, she runs in without thinking.::

(Anything to get out of all this muck!)

::As she enters and shuts the door behind her, she realizes the cabin space is already occupied.::

"Oh no! I'm so sorry, I didn't realize anyone lived here. I was just out for a walk through the forest and ended up here in the swamp. I needed a place to get out of the mud."

::Link shoots up into a sitting position, reaching for his sword.::

"Huh? Whuh?"

::He swings his legs off the bed and blearily looks at Tatum.::

"Fire's in the forest?"

::Tatum frowns in confusion.::

"No, I never said anything about a fire. I was just out for a walk and stumbled upon this cabin. Thought I'd check it out."

::She stares around the room at the rather odd group assembled there. She smiles and tries to make the best of it.::

"Well, I'm Tatum. Tatum O'Neill. Who're you?"

::Navi glows red and hovers around Tatum's face.::

"She's a witch! She can cast spells! Remember Twinrova, Link? You don't wanna let them live! Witches are evil!"

::Link quickly gets to his feet, holding his sword behind him so he can get a good swing to it when he gets close enough to lop Tatum's head off.::

::Tatum jumps backward in terror as Navi flutters quite close to her face and glows. She shrieks when Link comes at her with a long sword. She keeps backing away from them::

"HOLY CRAP! What the hell are you guys' problem? I'm not here to hurt anyone, what are you people doing?!"

(And how in the world did that thing know I'm a witch?)

::Hearing people in the cabin Shadow jumps off the roof landing infront of the door to the cabin. Shadow walks in looking from Tatum to Link to Navi. Her gaze rests on Navi for a moment before looking to the sword in Links hand.::

(Two people and a little flying thing. A pixie? And whats with the sword?)

::Navi speeds over to Shadow.::

"LINK! She's a... fairy??"

"Kinda busy right now Navi!"

::Link grunts and swings the sword towards Tatum, aiming at her chest, attempting to cut her in half.::

::Shadow steps back watching Navi tell Link what she is.::

(How does she know that?)

::Looks at Navi confused.::

"How . . . How?"

::Tatum dives to the side, avoiding the sword as it comes swooping down at her.::

"CHILL OUT! Oh, for the love of... Will you STOP trying to kill me for one second to hear me out!"

::She moves towards the newcomer, the only one who was not yelling at her and attacking her. She even manages a wry smirk.::

"Yeah, 'how' is a good question. That's precisely what I'm wondering myself."

::But seriously. What kind of person stops to chat when someone is flying at them with a sword? Link ignores whatever Tatum is blathering on about and stabs the sword at her abdomen.::

::Shadows eyes widen hearing that Link(she doesn't know his name) is trying to kill Tatum(dido with the name thing). Thinking fast she shoots fairy dust at the sword hopeing that the impact will knock the sword of course and, if lucky, will hit LInk making him confused. Turns to Tatum.::

"Why is he killing you? Or trying to?"

::Glances at Link. Her gaze rets on Navi again but swiftly moves back to Tatum.::

::Tatum gapes at Shadow as she sprinkles her fairy dust at the attackers.::

(What the hell is she?)

::As Link's sword comes at her again, she snaps out of her reverie to dodge the blow going towards her abdomen and kicks the blade to the side.::

"Won't you even listen? Stop trying to kill me for one second and just LISTEN, dammit! I'm not trying to hurt you or do anyone any harm, so why are you trying to kill me?"

::She turns to Shadow, the only one in the room not freaking out at her.::

"Look, I don't know why these guys are trying to kill me. I just came in here from the swamp outside, to get out of all the mud and slosh. I recently moved to this area and I was having a look around the neighborhood, that's all. Honest. I don't want to be making enemies already."

::The fairy dust gets in Link's face and he sneezes, twice, three times, and looks up, dazed. Confusion sets through his mind and he looks at the sword in his hand, unsure of what's going on.::

::Exhaling the breath she is holding, Tatum glances over at Shadow. She is relieved but confused.::

"Whew. Thanks for that. But what did you do to him?"

::She steps around the dazed figure of Link and walks up to Shadow's side and extends her hand in greeting.::

"Well, I suppose I should be thanking you for saving my life. I'm Tatum O'Neill. You?"

::Smiles watching Link sneeze and get confused. Looks to Tatum.::

"Welcome. I made him get confused about whats happening. He doesn't remember trying to kill you."

::Shakes Tatum's hand for a second before letting go.::

"I'm Shadow. Shadow Night."

::Smiles and looks to Link watching him wanting to know his reaction.::

::Tatums nods in understanding. She can't help but grin at the sight of her would-be killer looking so lost and dazed.::

"Neat trick you have there, then. And pretty damn handy in a tight spot. Well, I suppose it wouldn't be going out on a limb to say you're not just your average girl?"

::Wondering what exactly her new aquaintance is, Tatum also turns back to look at Link.::

(I sure hope he doesn't remember why he wanted to kill me in the first place. Shadow didn't hear him call me a witch, maybe I can still keep this thing under wraps.)

"Average? Not not even close."

(She better had not heard the part where the pixie? thing sais what I was.)

::Looks to the dazed Link smirking for a moment before watching Navi flutter there, still infront of her face::

::Tatum smirks.::

"Well, I suppose you're not going to enlighten me here, are you?"

::She casts another glance at Link and Navi.::

"Should we perhaps go somewhere else now? Let these two hover here for a bit so they can cool down, and if we're lucky, they'll forget that we were ever here. That way, we might not get killed."

::Unaffected by the fairy dust, Navi gets in Tatum's face, changing her mind about her species.::

"Link! She's a moron! Her inability to react to real situations makes her an easy target for destroying! Even if you try to stab her, she'll stand around and chat like nothing's happened! Kill her!"

"Hey, who are you calling a moron, you little creep!"

::Picking up the nearby chair, Tatum prepares to fend for her life against further attacks.::

"STOP FREAKING TRYING TO KILL ME!!!"

::She takes a swip at Navi with the chair.::

(Okay, if nothing convinced them I'm decent before, this display definitely won't be helping. But then again, there are two psychotic creatures attempting to chop off my head.)

::Shadow backs up her back now against the door and her hand trying to find that handle.::

(The bug is amusing.)

::Her hand finds the handle and she opens the door getting ready to try and get Tatum away from the people trying to kill her. Shadow grabs Tatum's hand and they run to Cw Apartments::

"What happened?"

::His senses having returned to him, Link blinks blearily and sits down.::

"Sure am glad those idiots are gone..."

"That's it. I can't take not knowing where she is anymore. Navi... let's go."

::Runs to the swamp.::

::Kaden stumbles upon the cabin and tentetivley makes his way to the door, knocking on it.::

"Hello? Excuse me? Is there anyone here?"

::Deciding that there was, indeed, no one there, Kaden attempts to climb the ladder back down to ground level. His gunge covered feet slip from a wrung and with a small 'eep!' he slips onto his back.::

"Great... Just great."

::Getting up slowly, he decides to leave the eerie dank of the swamp and heads toward the trees, making his way into the forest.::

::Shadow floats in on top of the shack. She transforms back and looks down at more zombies fighting 3 people. She puts her hands behind her and leans on them wating the fight. She can be seen but she is not that visible.::

::Having somehow forgeting how she got here Shadoe jumps down to the platform and climbs down the ladder into the swamp.::

::Andrea sneaks closer, quiet as a mouse, holding Hunos tightly in her arms.::

"Think she's in there?"

"There is only one way to find out."

"All right..."

::Andrea frowns, unsure of how to get Hunos up the ladder, then climbs up onto the platform and uses her power to carry him up, and into her arms. She opens the door and peeks inside, ready to get something flying into her face.::

(AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!)

:: Hunos digs his little kitty claws into Andrea, more than ready to protect the witch should anything inside the cabin attack them.::

"It's empty."

:: Hunos sighs, feeling a bit downhearted.::

"We shall have to keep looking then, Miss Andrea."

"Sure."

::Andrea turns back and lowers Hunos to the ground before climbing down the ladder... face first.::

"Okay."

::She picks up Hunos and carries him to the crocodile pit.::
