Ok, here are the rules.
1. Be creative. 2. You can add to the story a post at a time. 3. You may double post if nobody else adds anything for 3 or more days. 4. Additions to the story should be at least 4-5 sentences minimum. No maximum length. 5. Anyone can change or add anything to the story.
The Search for the Missing Plotline
Our tale begins slightly to the left of the middle of nowhere. A gathering of random characters from many different stories and fables had taken place. Their noble cause for this meeting was to seek out and discover the plot to this very story.
They had decided to split into 3 groups, and to draw straws. One group would go North, another South, and whichever group drew the shortest straw would go West, then East, making their job the most difficult.

"Well, I'm confused," Silver said to no one, standing slightly to the left of nowhere.
She looked down and kicked her dead corpse, not really expecting her foot to come in contact with her corpse's arm. After all, she was a bloody ghost. Weren't ghosts supposed to be insubstantial or something?
Instead, she ended up kicking her corpse's arm.
"Huh."

"Whoa.." Kage said, "Silver? Why are you dead?"
Kage looked about at the others. A few of them seemed familiar, but there seemed to be a rather large amount of strangers as well.
He reached over and tried to poke Silver in the shoulder.

Twilight edged inbetween the poke and Silver's shoulder. "Erm, mightn't we not want to do that? It might hurt her."
Then she looked startled. "Whoa. Kage, Silver, what're you doing here?!" She gestured widely at the...bleak and barren landscape. "I mean, it looks like we started this search at the worst place to find the plot."
She glanced down at Silver's body. "Maybe that was the point though. After all, where is the plot or whatever you're looking for but in the very last place you'd expect? Therefore, go to the last place you'd look for it...no?"

"Perhaps," Kage replied, looking around to see who else was there.
Blossom and Jessimyre were on the other side of the crowd. Kage made his way towards them, seeing many unfamiliar faces on the way.
Upon reaching Jessimyre and Blossom, he gave a thumbs up and said, "How goes it?"

"Yeah! What's up?" Twilight agreed, suddenly materializing beside Kage.
"Whoa! I didn't know I could do that! Seriously weird!" She suddenly dematerialized, fading in beside Silver again. "Odd.."
She stumbled over Silver's body as she tried to regain her balance and abruptly dematerialized again. "Not fun..." she muttered as she was blown away by a prevailing wind.
"I'll just have to come back later!" she yelled back at the others. "Sorry about the modification to remembrance!"

"This is very strange," Silver said. She occupied herself with putting her right hand through her left hand. "How did I get to be a ghost?!"
She stomped her foot, and suddenly she fell into the earth.

Meanwhile Twilight found herself blown about by the winds of fate. They were in a playful mood, apparently, and had decided that she'd make a good kite. Fortunately, or unfortunately depending on your viewpoint, she had regained her solidity and was now dropping rapidly toward the ground. There was a distinct possibility upcoming for a rather large splat... And the idea was an uncomfortable one to say the least. And icky. A solution was required, but as yet unavaliable. Perhaps it was on vacation...

Suddenly, Jaime emerged out of the other side of the earth.
She giggled, the sound echoing off the cliffs around her. Smiling, she cleared her throat and dove back into the earth. A few moments later, she emerged from where she'd started.

Twilight fell, and found herself sliding through a suddenly very permeable earth. She passed by the middle, watching the blazing molten stone within, but untouched by the heat. As she moved slowly onward, she saw Silver shooting by, headed back 'up'.
Smiling, she turned and swam after Silver.

"Woo-hoo!" Jaime said. "That was a rush! Cool!"
She looked around, breathing hard despite the lack of effort she'd exerted.
"I love being a ghost!"

Cody just looked around, confused. Why were they here again?
It was nifty to see a bunch of people from the forum, but it was strange not remembering why he was there. He shook his head in an effort to regain focus.
"Why are we here again?" he asked to nobody in specific.

Twilight popped out of the ground beside him.
"We're searching for something missing!" she replied brightly. "And neither Silver nor I have found it yet...assuming we even know what we're looking for."
She glanced over at Silver. "What are we looking for Silver?"

Silver looked around. "I'm supposed to know what we're doing? Me? Why me? Why not...him?"
She pointed at a passing ghost, who sank into the ground.
"Umn, maybe not."

"Oh, a penny for a plot! We don't seem to be getting anywhere."
She winked at Silver. "Ghosts abound however, perhaps we can start there? This world seems pretty weird, but ghosts are a good thing!"
Twilight felt herself sinking into the ground again and slapped at her feet. "Stop that! I'm trying to stay here and figure out what we're doing! Not go zooming through the middle of the earth again." She looked back up at the other two. "Ok, so what we know so far is that we're looking for something, we can be ghostly, and that the earth is permeable. Anything else?"
