manofgnee[Hanna's dropped his communicator again, and, as usual, by dropping it he's activated the video function. But in this case, it may be a good thing.
Hanna's running from something, ducking behind the fountain as he tries to catch his breath. He's already tried to draw some runes on his hands, but they haven't been working, nor have physical attacks with the hammer, which is covered in particles of golden sand.]
...c'mon...work, please, this time, work!
[Hanna draws out another, more complicated rune, as a disturbing train whistle seems to get louder and closer. Hanna fires the rune at his now visible attacker: A man made of sand, with hollow, empty eyes, a twisted smile, driving a black train with shining, starlike wheels. The attack seems to just pass through the sandman, whose smile grows as he beckons Hanna along with a hand that dissolves and reforms before his eyes.]
Shit, shit shit!! Ok, plan C- keep running and hope I lose him...c'mon legs, work...we need to go...!
[Panting heavily, Hanna struggles to get up and begins to flee again, only to trip over the communication device, cutting off the video, leaving the audio on for a few minutes.]
Craaap...! Stay back, I'm not going with you!! C'mon, get up, we need to keep going...!!
[A sinister laugh fills the audio device, speaking briefly in hollow tones before the audio cuts off.]
Oh, hush you little one, and have no fear...
The man-in-the-moon he is the engineer...
So put on you 'jamas and say your prayers...
[ooc: I got the nursery rhyme for today's curse from: http://www.rhymes.org.uk/
The specific nursery rhyme is called The Sandman, and is found here: http://www.rhymes.org.uk/a120-sandman.htm
Explanation of the creepy: The Sandman is powered by sleep, and traps people in their nightmares. The darker the nightmares, the more powerful he is, and if he gets enough power, he ceases to be made of sand and is real. Nobody dies, but it still really sucks for his victims. His creepy little train represents the night, and he, of course, represents sleep. Also, I think the original nursery rhyme is still really creepy.
...You know, the funny thing is, I had to read nursery rhymes for english homework, this synchronized up really well!! Hooray for coincidences!]

Date: 2010-05-03 09:48 pm (UTC)[Hanna quickly spouts off an address, before some shuffling can be heard as he gets up and starts running again.]
If...if that doesn't work, try hiding in Xanadu, you might be able to lose him there.
