This creature known
This creature known as Olive wants to do an RP.
Note: Nenri are based off the Japanese monsters known was "Enenra".
Anyway. Here's the summary:
After ravenous beasts known only as Nenri diminish earth's population, an epidemic sweeps the remainder of the survivors. Only a handful of people- all children- are immune to this disease. They are called the Free. So when there are rumours of creatures who have developed a cure, it is up to the Free to find them. There's just one little problem. The cure was developed by a colony of shapeshifting spirits. And those spirits aren't giving up their cure without a little... entertainment.
By entertainment, I mean the spirits are going to get the Free to go on some quest of some kind- probably to kill the Nenri who are just in hiding, biding their time and ready to take on not just the rest of the humans, but also the spirits themselves. I don't know what to call the spirits. Any ideas? (I was thinking of names that have to do with Japanese folklore- or anime or manga ;))

I walked into the dark woods with my small group, the only free who were free to leave the hospital; Emi, a brown-haired boy, Miri, and Hisoka. After we had passed a few trees, a hawk dropped out of the branches and became a wild haired boy, "So, you want the cure, eh" he said, his eyes turning yellow, "Well, to have our cure, you need to do something for us. The price for the cure is that you have to find the Dream King, in the land of visions and ask him to return our book of tricks, our official handbook, which he borrowed to make dreams a bit more interesting- the going to school naked dream, that's inspired from our book." "How do you expect us to get to the land of dreams!" burst out Miri in annoyance, "Find out yourself" he said, then he disapeared in a puff of smoke. "Well that's just great!" said Hisoka sarcastically. "Let's just go to sleep and talk to the dream king, that'll do it!" I turned around to ask if there was any modern medcine that could give us hallucinations, maybe that would do it, when Emi said, "My mother once told me that the old Shinto priestesses could converse with the gods, maybe the dream king is a god." "Well let's just go to our Shinto Priestess branch and find one! Emi, we haven't had a priestess in so long, they live elsewere, to find one, we would have to leave the hospital," said Hisoka in annoyance. The brown-haired boy spoke up, "Would you rather stay at the hospital and watch your, our friends and families die, or go on an impossible quest, you choose."
In the end we all agreed that we needed to go on the quest and that was that, we went back and broke the news to everyone, Miri's sister was in tears and so was Miri. People glared at us angrily, shouting that they could go to, that they could find a priestess/priest/shaman and get the cure. But in the end, the only free, who were truely free to move around, were us and after getting what little food they could give, tents, and other supplies, we left, so that nobodyelse could complain, whine or stop us. We were the last chance and we needed the cure.
__________________________________________________________________________________
I wanted to just say that the Dream King was being controlled by nenri and to get to him, they first need to find the priest/priestess/shaman, get in a trance (ie: leave their physical bodies) and then see the world that the nenri are now occupying(i.e.: dreamland), and controlling dreams and causing the disease. Through dreams they (the nenri) are entering peoples minds slowly and giving them the sickness. The reason the free are all children is that their bodies stopped tham from having dreams when they relised what was happening, since children adapt faster. So their quest really is to get rid of the nenri, which will also cure the disease and put dreams back in the Dream King's hands, and restore the world to order, which would make the spirits happy, since they could now be the only ones to torment the humans.
If hope you like my idea; if you don't, please disreguard it.

How from now on we just call the spirits obake, since that is the Japanese term for different types (Kitsune, tanuki, ect.) of shapeshifters.

Chika,
We had been traveling for some days now, when a dark-haired girl ran up to us. "When I went to the Hospital to find Miri, they told me she had left to find a Miko," she began. "Then, I remembered that there used to be a old Miko who lived alone in the forest. I will tell you where she lives if you let me join your quest." We didn't know of anyone else besides who this girl suggested, so Emi held out her hand to the girl and the girl took it and said, "My name is Yone, Maiya. But since we are traveling together, you can call me Maiya."
She then took us through a hidden path and we reached an old hut. It was simple, but made of good wood; an old woman dressed in a pair of red hakama and a haori came out of it. Her greying hair still had a hint of black and was held together by a white ribbon. She looked at us and spoke in a stronge voice. "The kami told me of your coming," she said. "You wish to visit the land of the dream king, but to get there I have to test to see if you are worthy to step foot in the territory of a god." Then she let us enter and gave us some tea and motioned to a bench. "Your test will begin now," she said.
Please, I'm begging you, post something; this is such a interesting story, I want to see grow!
