[shadow=BLACK,left,300]Drakesville's 3rd Annual[/shadow]
MARDI GRAS!
The streets are filled with people chucking beads from balconies of motels, restraunts, bars and things of that sort. Cops are all around, and the streets are littered. Mini-restraunts have set up stands on the sides of the road, and the road has been closed off that runs through Downtown. Major drunkness, and major fun here at the 3rd annual Mardi Gras!
Post away! |

Yes, one of the most exciting times of year in the city had finally come. Mardi Gras was in full swing downtown and Cade felt happy just to be out there. There was such energy in the place and it could be felt by everyone. Even Cade, as shy as he usually was, wanted to make the best of this time of year. It really brought him of his shell.
The food was wonderful, and the alcohol wasn't that bad either. This was one of the only times Cade ever really drank anything, but in the sense of good fun he had already put back a few from every alcohol stand that he had passed and was well on his way to being completely plastered by the end of the night. He had been searching without luck for someone that he might know, as drinking with a friend was always much better.

Dae wasn't sure if she wanted to go to the Mardi Gras celebration, it was one of her favorite holidays but there weren't many people she knew who went unless either Mychal or Taro her two best friends went. She wasn't sure if they would be going since she hadn't been able to talk with them in school the day before. Instead of trying to find either one of them she decided just to send Taro a text message. Walking out into the street and sitting on the sidewalk she began to type into her phone:
'Hey, where are you?'

Mychal was bored, what could she say, so she decided to hit up the celebrations downtown at Mardi Gras. She had hoped to meet some new people, and act a fool. Once she got drunk, who knew what she would do? She sure didnt. She looked around for a couple of her best friends, though. One was her best friend, Dae, and the other was her good friend, Taro, whom she thought had a crush on her.
She stepped off of the bus as it let her off infront of the roadblock and the beginning of the festivities, oh the joy's of having public transit systems in the city, she loved it. She didnt have to pay for gas, or anything like that, because the city all paid for it, the only thing she paid was a measely 10 cent bus toll. It couldnt get much better, not having the expenses of having to pay for gas, and a car made things alot better.
The attire of Mychal tonight was a pair of tight black tights, with a miniskirt on over them, and a pair of shoes which had a small bow on them, they were leapord skin. She also wore a rather tight black shirt for her petite frame on her upper body which read "Angels and Airwaves". Her small purse was in her hand as she walked into the streets, brushing elbows with people as she smelt alcohol immidietely, she looked over at Dae, spotting her as she ran over to her, her bangs combed over to the side.. "Hey girl!" She said, smiling as she hugged her. |

Dae grinned and jumped up off of the curb, her crimpled plaid skirt flying up a little as she did. "Hey! How are you?!" She always got so excited and happy when she saw Mychal. The cool night air got to her bare arms a little and she put on the black sweater she had in her hand to hide the purple tank top that was underneath it. Her top said rockstar on it in silver shiny letters. She had a pair of black leggings on under her denim skirt and had lace on the very bottom edge.

Taro walked around aimlessly, confused. The streets were so crowded and well...festive. He'd never actually attended one of these Mardi Gras celebrations things. He might have once when he was younger. But other than that he had no idea what to expect. He wasn't even sure if he would see anybody he knew. Perhaps Mychal or Faerydae or even Ashley would be there. He doubted it.
Just then his phone rang. The ringtone of Stone Cold Crazy by Queen blared from his phone.
Who's texting me? he thought, confused. He didn't get many phone calls let alone texts.
He flipped open the orange cellular devise and saw the words 'Hey, where are you?' . It was from Dae.
He smirked, texting her back, Heh @ tht Mrdi Gras thing. Whr u?
Sending away the text he closed the phone back up and looked around the streets wondering why she'd asked where he was.
His grey eyes caught site of two girls off in the distance. They looked familiar. He couldn't be sure though because they were so far away. He decided to head off in that general direction anyways.

Dae felt her phone vibrate and came out of the hug she had been giving Mychal. Smiling she opened her phone and read the message that had been written to her by Taro. He was at the Mardi Gras thing too so if she could find his exact location then Mychal and her could meet him somewhere. She typed him a simple message back.
'Mardi Gras too w/Mychal'
She looked up to Mychal and smiled again. "Taro is here somewhere, he just texted me. Lets go find him." She smiled grabbing Mychal's hand and beginning to walk down the sidewalk, she thought she saw Taro further down the street but wasn't sure so didn't say anything.

Trey walked to the big crowd at the Mardi Gras. He was wearing a black hoody, with his hood covering his head. On the hoody was a Daffy Duck, holding a big amount of cash in his hands, with a pair of black baggy pants, and black force ones. He had a extra black jacket on him, just incase it started raining. Usually, it rains during these days. He came there with Melody, he was behind her with his arms wrapped around her stomach area. He had his chin leaning on her shoulders, softly, while they walk into the crowd. "You know it's gonna rain and all, so I got a coat for yah, just incase." He saids in her ear. "You see anyone you know here?" He wondered, looking through the crowd.

Melody was with Trey at the Mardi Gras Party and she was having a good time already. They were walking through the streets and he was behind her with his hands around her waist. She felt like nothing bad could ever happen to her and that she was as safe as she could ever be. The street lights were all turned on and it was getting darker by the minute. She felt his breath on the side of her face when he was talking and it felt really warm. "No, but thats okay because I have you" She smiled and looked over at him.

Trey smiles at her, and gave her kiss, gently on the lips. Her lips felt so smooth and relaxing. He continued to glare at her. "We don't wanna just stand here. Let's get moving, no telling how these people may react. Don't want noone doing anything stupid." Trey saids. "Some of your friends probably here. We should go find em and meet em." Trey saids, smiling at her, before planting another kiss on her lips.

Mychal nodded her head as Dae tugged her over to find Taro. She giggled as they began to walk, a slight misty rain was falling but it wasnt too bad so she didnt have to wear that heavy of a jacket, shoot, she didnt even wear one at all. She stopped Dae real quick at vendor booth, she took out her wallet from her purse and bought 2 red plastic cups full of beer. She smiled as they didnt even ask her age, or for an ID. She put her wallet away inside her purse and handed one of the cups to Dae, taking one for herself as she began to sip it. "Where in the hell is Taro? I miss that boy.". |

Vik and Josh began to walk through the streets just in shock and amazement. It was the biggest year yet, and a damn good one. Vik was wearing a black hoodie with a pair of jungle camo pants, and Josh had on a white t and and basketball shorts, and was also wearing his guitar as he gently strummed tunes as he walked. They both dominated the crowd as they were taller then most. They walked North on the street and tried to see people they knew from the massive array of people.

"Maybe" She grinned kissing him back and laying her chin on his shoulder looking the opposite way of him. She didn't see anyone she knew and there weren't many people around here that she was outstanding friends with. It might become a problem for her if she didn't find some closer friends soon. All the friends she did have were guys and didn't often care about her problems. Trey was different though. He did care.

Dae giggled a little when she heard Mychal also do so. It was a bit contagious. She slowed down and followed Mychal to the vendor stand. Mmm she thought, beer was just what she needed right now. The town rarely cared what the younger kids like them drank on days like today. This town was big on celebrations and all they wanted everyone to do was have some fun. What was life without fun? She looked around some more trying to find Taro and answering Mychal's question. "Yea me too. I feels like we haven't seen him in ages."

Trey looks around "Come on. Let's go little deeper into the crowd." He saids. They walked a little deeper into the crowd. "Before we go any deeper, you wanna continue going into this crowd or just stay from the large areas of the crowd for awhile. I don't want you to get separate from me or nothing, but you'll know, I'll find you. Even if I gotta shoot in the air to get people scared, I'll find you." Trey winks at her, then looks at the crowd, surrounding him, then glaring back at her.
