Plot
It was a happy day in Raeo (the site) where the members were frolicking about doing member-like things, while the staff were frolicking about while doing staff-like things. One staff in particular had hidden himself in the staff room in hopes that he'd get less interruptions so he could get some work on the site done. This staff member was the admin, Jake.
Now, Jake was quite busy, so when he heard the staff room door open, but saw no one there when he looked, he just shrugged it off and went back to work. Unfortunately for Jake, his work would be interrupted by someone with the intention of killing. Before said person could finish the job, however, they heard someone approaching, and fled all ninja-like, leaving behind an unconscious Jake and a strap.
(No admins were harmed in the making of this plot.)
The role play takes place directly after this scene. The door to the staff room is open. However, a magical barrier keeps non-staff members from being able to walk into it.

[Spiritomb]

"I gave her a Shaymin! A SHAYMIN! Why don't any of the girls notice me..." Austin sighed, walking through Raeo. The young mod, AKA Spiritomb, felt kinda left out...being the newest mod and all. It was made stranger that he was promoted to mod the very day he came to Raeo.And so, his sudden position had him surrounded by girls (and Jake), but nothing was coming of it.
"Augh...I need a drink." murmurred Austin, blowing his hair from his eyes as he passed through the magical barrier to the staff room. He chuckled a bit, because the barrier tickled.
Grabbing a Diet Pepsi, Austin leaned against the wall, letting his eyes wander around the room. It was really nice. It could use a new wall color, and the Jake on the floor was unsightly, but...

...wait...

"Jake!" Austin shouted, instantly dropping his soda and falling to his knees, checking Jake's vitals. "Okay...he has a pulse...oh man, this isn't good...what's going on?" Austin asked, as he started to panic. This caused his asthma to act up, and after using his inhaler, he calmed down a bit. Austin stood, and tossed out the only Pokeball he brought with him today. An odd, frowning stone tumbled out, and soon, a swirling vortex emerged, its green eyes flickering, and its single pupil swirling. The vortex flashed its crooked verdant grin.

"Aussssstiiiiin!" it said happily, its voice like an ominous wind.

"Obsidian, someone attacked Jake. You stay here and watch him while I go get help." Austin ordered, making towards the door.

"Can I---"

"NO YOU MAY NOT EAT HIS SOUL."

"Daaaaw....finnnne. Assss yoooou wiiiish." Obsidian murmured, his crazy grin now crazy frown. Austin shook his head, and went out the door.

[♥Charlie]

"AndthenitusedSeedFlareanditwassocuuuuute~~~"
Krela sighed, laying flat on her trainer's head with her limbs and tail hanging down. It seemed all Charlie could talk about was how adorable her new Shaymin was. If she ever found out who the hell gave her that damn Pokemon, she'd give them a good shock. Now unless there was another and even more adorable Pokemon to take its place, they'd never hear the end of it.
"So then he sent out a Mudkip of all Pokemon!" her trainer continued, half-skipping down the hallway. She didn't even seem to care that Krela was on her head like she usually did. "So I made it use Seed Flare again, and it was so--"
"Let me guess," her Pokemon cut in, "it was so cute?"
Charlie gasped. "Are you psychic or something?!"
"No, you've just been saying that for the past hour or so," the Pikachu snapped, groaning to herself. What was so great about a stinkin' Shaymin anyway? She was so much better!
"Well it is~"
Suddenly, as the two neared the staff room, the G-Mod noticed something unusual. There was that new mod standing out there, looking quite panicked. Curious, the teen trotted forward.
"Spirit!" she called out upon approaching him, waving a hand in the air. "Hiya! That Shaymin you gave me is so cuuuuuuute~" Krela groaned at this. "And I absolutely adore its Seed Flare! It kicks ass! But anyway, what's goin' on? You looked like you saw a ghost or something."
Krela's head snapped up, and she leaped from her trainer's head -- much to Charlie's surprise -- and landed easily on the ground, darting into the staff room. Being the Pokemon of a G-Mod, she too gained access to it. Once she saw the scene in the room, the electric mouse gasped.
"Charlie! Charlie!" she called out. "Come see this!"
Intrigued by her Pokemon's sudden call, Charlie darted around the mod and skidded into a halt inside the staff room, gasping as well. There was an unconscious Jake lying on the floor, and a Spiritomb hovering over him. The G-Mod quickly whipped around to where the other staff member was.
"Dude!" she exclaimed, flailing her arms in the air. "That was totally uncalled for! Totally!"

[Spiritomb]

"What!?" Austin asked, reeling at the accusation. "N-no! Y'gotitallwrong!" he stammered, walking back into the staff room. "You see, I came in here all depressed and needing a soda...that one, actually," Austin said, pointing to the can of Diet Pepsi, sitting in a puddle of its own beverage "when I found Jake like this. I checked for a pulse (he has one), and then I left Obsidian here to guard him while I went to find someone but you're someone and you're here so I can be happy and by the way glad you like the Shaymin."
As Austin finally took a breath, Obsidian's ghostly neck twisted, turning the rotating disc of ectoplasm that was his face towards the Pikachu that had darted in just a few seconds before.

"Hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhi." Obsidian wheezed, his pupil spinning as he examined the Pikachu. "Austin, can I---"

"NO."

"Fiiiiiine."

[Jake]

A giant purple beast was walking about Raeo, looking at all the members and whatnot. Jake had gone to the staff room for some peace to work and had told Tobey, his Nidoking, to keep an eye on things in the magical site. The Nidoking had been given a little walkie-talkie like thingy by Jake on which they could talk and Tobey could tell Jake what his changes looked like from the other side. However Tobey, being Jake's best companion, loved to toy with Jake. Occasionally, he'd press the little red button on the side which would cause Jake's communicator's light to blink while the rest of it buzzed and vibrated, telling the admin that something was wrong. This caused Jake much distress, but Tobey would just chuckle to himself as Jake's voice yelled from the device (and Tobey would turn down the volume for that anyway). This is why Tobey didn't have a permanent one of these. He would usually have one of the other staff do this job for him, but today was a busy day and they were all out doing their own jobs. Well, supposed to be doing their own jobs. But as Tobey was walking about looking at the walls and whatnot, he heard an odd noise coming from the communicator. It was hard to describe, but he would say it sounded something like quite mumbling, but even that was off.
"Hm... Well, I suppose I should go and take a looksy~" stated the purple monster as he headed off for the Staff Room.
As he walked in and through the magical barrier of happiness and prevention, he saw the scene at hand: the new moderator, the global moderator, and his trainer and partner on the ground, unconscious.
"What the fuck?!" Tobey yelled as he ran to Jake, nearly ramming into the two others. Tobey poked at Jake but got no response. after many confused looks and noises, he finally grabbed his communicator and pushed the red button. A similar device on Jake's belt began to blink, buzz, and vibrate. Instantly, Jake flew off the ground and ran over to his officey-like area.
"ZOMIGAWDSOMETHING'SWRONG
WHAT'SWRONGWHAT'SGOINGONWHODIED
WHATBLEWUPWHAT'SGOINGONI'MJUSTPUSHING
RANDOMBUTTON'SNOTHINGANDIT'SNOT
HELPINGWHATDOIDOOOOO?!"
Jake yelled and flailed as he began slamming his fist into his computer's keyboard. It was then that he felt his lightheadedness and wobbled a bit before hitting the floor with a loud 'thud!'
Tobey, shocked by this scene, only watched wide-eyed. After witnessing his master fall, he grabbed a half-full can of diet Pepsi (the other half was staining the new carpet) and dumped the liquid on Jake's face.
Jake gargled and spat before sitting up and wiping his face.
"What the fuck, man?!" He yelled at the pokemon.
"You tell me!" Tobey yelled back, "What happened?!"
"I dunno I was just in here working and then the door opened and I looked over and nobody was there so I kept working and the next thing I know my unnamed walkie-talkie thing was going crazy and now I'm on the floor with a nose full of possibly the worst drink in creation!" Jake sped through before taking a deep breathe in.
"Now I need a towel."

[♥Charlie]

"Waah!"
Krela, who had been eying the Spiritomb cautiously, quickly whipped around as her trainer let out a yell, almost being trampled by a large purple shape. Luckily, she dived out of the way, looking up to see Charlie sprawled out on the floor, blowing a strand of hair out of her face while twisting her head around, trying to see who almost trampled her.
"DAMMIT, TOBEY!" she cursed loudly, pushing herself off the ground. However, Tobey apparently didn't hear her, and instead went to tending to his own trainer. The G-Mod stormed over to the Pokemon, about to yell at him in a very Charlie-like fashion, when Jake suddenly jumped up and started shouting.
"HOMAIGAWDITSAZOMBIE!" the girl shrieked as she jumped back, tripping over her own feet and almost falling again. Krela facepalm'd.
"You idiot!" she snapped, walking towards her trainer. "Jake wasn't even dead in the first place!"
"Oyeahthatsright," Charlie replied, tapping her chin thoughtfully, then strolled over to Jake and knelt down. "So wait, you didn't see the person who attacked you? And, they're still on the loose?!"

[Spiritomb]

"Jeee-SUS!"Austin gasped, flattening himself against the wall and clutching his chest as he watched Jake jump up and flail about. "Between you and that purple behemoth, I'm gonna have a heart attack and be dead by 18!"

Obsidian was less phased, merely blinking, his swirly pupil fixated on the Nidoking. Austin, finally removing himself from the wall, walked over to Jake. "So...what you're saying is....WE'RE TRAPPED. IN A FORUM. WITH A KILLER."

"That would seem to be the gist of it..." Obsidian replied, his voice enough to give anyone (besides Austin, who was used to it by now) a chill.

"Great. I always knew I'd die inside some sort of B-movie plot." Austin sighed as he crossed his arms, looking around the room for clues. "Also, Diet Pepsi is NOT the worst. You should try Diet Dr. Thunder. It makes cherry cough syrup tasted like pure love."

[Jake]

Jake got up and flicked a drop of Diet Nasty that was rolling down his arm.
"Gah, I'd rather be covered in shi-"
He was cut off by Charlie's questions.
"Yup. I though that perhaps the e-wind may have blown open the door or perhaps you had gotten a hold of some coke and were running faster that eyes can see again. So I just ignored it. I just go back to typing on my computer and then it all goes black. It didn't all go black suddenly, though. It was a... slow fade to black, sort of. Like, in those movies where they end it and they want to be dramatic so they make the final frame take FOREVER to fade to black and you're sitting in the theater like, 'why the hell did I pay six dollars to see this crap?' and so you go home and complain to all your friends but they go see it anyway because APPARENTLY you're not trustworthy enough to give a good rev-"
"JAKEJUSTTELLUSWHOITWAS!" Tobey screamed with a lovely eye twitch at the end.
"Well, I don't know who it was."
Tobey's eye twitched again.
"Ya see, whoever it was tried to strangle me with some strap or something. It was so tight around my neck, I couldn't turn around and see who it was. And then it all went black."
A light bulb went off in Jake's head. He ran to his computer with LIGHTNING SPEED.
"IKNOWIKNOWIKNOW!" He said with glee~ "We can see who did it using the security cameras I set up not too long ago."
Jake went and opened the security files. It was empty.
"DAMMIT!" He yelled quite loudly. "You can only see crap if it was reported. WHY DID NOBODY REPORT MY ATMPTED MURDER?"
Jake took a look around the room.
"Oh right. Nobody else was here..."
Jake looked into space for a long while, as he often did when "thinking." Finally he spoke.
"Well..." He started, "I guess we can safely assume that there is indeed a homicidal freak in Raeo."
Another pause.
"How lovely."

[♥Charlie]

"Naw, I spent most of the evening playing PBR to be running down the hallway faster than the speed of light," Charlie replied, shaking her head while she too got up and pulled both hands behind her messy brown hair. "I actually just got back, and saw Spiritomb in the hallway, looking all panicky and stuff, and then found you in here."
As he described what happened, Charlie's thoughtful look returned, and she began to gnaw on the end of her thumb nail, her eyes traveling down to his throat where, sure enough, there were the somewhat faint tell-tale marks that someone had attempted to strangle him. Suddenly, her head snapped up.
"Wait, you said they used a strap, right?" she asked suddenly. Her eyes darted around the room. "Is it still in here? We can use it as evidence! It might even have the person's fingerprints on it or something! We could solve the entire case with just that strap!"
"Yeah, but you're overlooking one tiny detail," Krela butted in, sighing. "Raeo doesn't have everyone's fingerprints stored somewhere."
"Oh." Charlie's face fell, and she crossed her arms, staring at the ground while deep in thought. "Hmmm... Are there any more clues we could use?"

[Song]

Today, we'll examine a wild Pokémon live in the field.
Ah, here we go, a wild Ponyta conveniently just came along . . .Oh? It's holding something! Let's roll up and take a look!Hi there! Can I take a look. . .
Yow! Ouch! It scratched my finger!
But, okay, we now know that wild Ponyta have the possibility of holding the item Coba Berry. Thank you-
Song stiffed a yawn. Sitting in the Out of Character Land "All That Other Shizz" room, or rather, the room with fluffy old arm chairs and a small T.V. A Chatot sat on top of the arm chair,squawking the 'Fire Emblem' theme, extremely out of tune. "One day," she commented, half to herself, "That guy is going to walk up the the wrong Pokémon and get himself killed."
"Killed, Killed!" R.B. chanted, sounding rather murderous, "Song is cool, killed, killed!"
"Shut it, Random."

Song jumped up in shock as the familiar lumbering shape of Tobey went charging down the halls. "I wonder what that's all about?" she mumbled. For once, the annoying parrot didn't mimic her. He was busy trying to regain his balance of the chair.
She reached over and grabbed a can of soda off the end table next to her. It popped open with a loud crack, and she took a small sip."Ack! Diet Dr. Thunder?" she put it down with a sigh. "I bet the staff room has better stuff then this crap."
