The setting is October 2016. The eventual closure of the LEGO Message Boards is completely unknown to users at this time. Halloween is near, a time of celebration and fun on the MBs.
However, an old enemy awakens, one which intends on dominating the entire MBs. It has already crushed one world, and it intends on doing the same to the MBs.
Can even the mods stop it? It eluded them once, and now its forces grow, right under their noses...
THE IS COMING
I posted this story on the original MBs on this day 4 years ago, so I figured it was a good time to bring the tale of the to the LMBE. It's based on events that happened in a certain Halloween Party topic that was around at the time. Certain scenes and chapters are taken directly from quote chains there, I want to make that clear. (you'll probably be able to tell which ones those are )
For the most part, this is the exact story I posted in 2016. The only changes will be minor: changing formatting, fixing a couple unintentional typos, using proper em-dashes. New chapters will come daily, as they did then.
Chapter 1 comes tomorrow.

Chapter 1: The Halloween Party
<PERSPECTIVE: HANNAH> I glance at the clock. I better not be late. You see, this user Nintendo is about to start a party for Halloween, and it is my duty as a Party Bosscrasher to come. I grab a belt and tie it around my waist to complete my outfit. I’m dressing up as my rank, which is Forestman. I walk over to a chest and open it, revealing my Explodium Sword. I take it out and put it in the sheath on my back. In the craziness of the parties, you never know when you might need a weapon. As I walk out the door, I grab the bucket of candy corn I left there. I’m ready to party.
I hurry to the party. When I arrive, I see that there are already a few users inside, but I’m not too late. I throw open the door, tossing some candy corn to improve my entrance. I look around the room to see who’s here.
Nintendo is here, of course. He hasn’t yet put on a costume. Dumbles is here, and he is dressed up as SSTO. I also see Icefire, who is dressed as he usually is. Benboy is here, as well as Nadajay, who decided to dress up as Ben. Pacman, wearing that minidoll costume he’s been in recently, comments on Dumble’s costume. I take a few steps in, unsure of what to do first. Icefire walks up to me.
“Welcome to the party, Hannah! Want a cookie?” he asks.
“Sure!”
He hands me a cookie, which is shaped like a pumpkin. I eat it and offer him some candy corn. He takes a handful, and walks to Nintendo to chat with him. I hear the door open, so I look, and see a fellow Party Bosscrasher, Shamrock, enter and plant a Party Bosscrasher flag. Super also enters, and begins talking with Dumbles. The next thing I see is Shamrock’s leprechaun army entering... Of course they had to come. (that’s what my sword is for, actually) Luckily they haven’t noticed me yet. Elizabeth enters the party, and I toss some candy corn at her. She catches it all and eats some. I look back at the leprechauns to see if they’ve spotted me yet. They have, and they pull out their water pistols and begin firing. Here we go again.

Chapter 2: Leprechauns and Vampires
I duck and run to the food table to try to avoid the leprechauns’ shooting. They don’t seem to be shooting water... What are they shooting? I catch some in my mouth to find out. It seems to be pumpkin juice. I have an idea... I dump the candy corn in my bucket out onto the table, and begin collecting pumpkin juice in the bucket. When I have enough, I use it and other random things on the food table to create a pumpkin pie! Nintendo comes to me and tries a slice.
“That doesn’t taste right,” he says.
I get myself a slice and eat some.
“You’re right,” I say. I glance at the leprechauns.
“Maybe they poisoned it... Let’s go ask them,” Nintendo replies.
“Good idea.”
“I’m afraid of them. You should ask them.”
“I’m afraid of them too. But I’ll ask.”
However, I look, and it seems that they and Sham have left... Hm.
I see some new users enter the party. Em, dressed in a Dracula costume, walks in and drinks some punch. Goomy also comes in. He isn’t yet in a costume.
“Am I too late for the party?” he asks.
“No, it’s the first day of October. IT’S A MONTH TILL HALLOWEEN!” Nadajay says.
Then, they begin chatting. Super asks if anyone wants to help her carve a pumpkin. Several hands go up. Another user, Bun, crashes through the door. She shows us some of the snacks she brought, and begins a mysterious carving of a pumpkin. Suddenly, another user, Crystal, appears in the middle of the floor.
“I’ve arrived!” she says.
She appears to be a vampire. She goes to the corner and begins watching us. Dumbles runs and hides from her under a table. Crystal seems interested. Super, who is now also dressed as a vampire, comes to her and begins talking to her in some vampire-y language. Crystal talks with her, but she’s also looking around the room trying to find Dumbles. He sneaks out from under the table to get some punch, and Crystal approaches him. She gets closer, but stops after Elizabeth throws an apple at her.
I smile. Just another crazy party... or is it?

Chapter 3: The Mysterious ScrollElizabeth, Nintendo, and Dumbles are having a conversation. Curious, I go closer to hear what they’re saying.
“What is IRL?” Nintendo asks.
“In real life,” Elizabeth says.
“What is real life?” Dumbles asks.
“Like... I don’t know how to explain it,” Elizabeth says.
“Oh, it’s that place that used to exist!”
“Used to?!”
After she says this, I feel something. I look down at my hands, and a scroll appears. Creepy... I open it up and begin reading it, out loud.
“Yes, Elizabeth... I’ll tell you the story... For years, the LEGO Message Boards had been an online community, filled with fun and laughter. But one day, the came. The escaped from the LEGO Message Boards, and used its creepyness to take over the world that was known as Real Life. However, it wasn’t done yet. The did not like Real Life, and wanted its inhabitants in the LEGO Message Boards, which was where the came from. The had great power, and succeeded in getting rid of Real Life. Now, there is only the LEGO Message Boards...”
After I finish, the scroll disappears.
“Who wrote this?” I ask.
“Wow... Looks like I won’t be getting any sleep tonight,” Elizabeth says.
“But look who IS sleeping!” Nintendo says.
We look, and Dumbles is sleeping on the floor, smiling.
“What has that done to him?!” I ask.
Dumbles begins cuddling a . This can’t be good. I put on some gloves, and slowly remove the from Dumble’s grip. Once I have it, I step back to see Dumble’s reaction. He’s still sleeping.
“Unicorns...” he mutters.
There, that’s better. I place the in a box. I look at it for a second before putting on the lid and locking it. To finish it off, I put on a label, warning of the dangerous contents of the box. I throw the box in the trash.
I think about that . It was such a happy emote... Poor thing...
No! It’s an evil emote!
Maybe the just wants to be your friend.
Nooooooo! Must... resist!
I collapse on the floor, and cover my face with my hand.
We’re just nice little happy emotes...

I still fondly remember the Halloween Party topic... Can't say I've missed the emotes, though. I'm probably late, but welcome back, Hannah! It's great to see you around again! (The tigers wave hello as well!) Looking forward to rereading the story!

Chapter 4: The Duel
No! Get out of my mind you evil !
How are you so certain? Maybe everyone’s mistaken about our intentions...
Noooooooooo!
I feel an emote be put into my hand. I’m about to throw it out, but then I see that it’s not a . It’s a , and the has gotten out of my head. I look up at the user who gave it to me.
“Thank you. Are you going to stay?” I ask him.
“No problem. I can’t stay; I need to go pick up a pizza. See ya!”
He hurries out the door. The room is silent, and everyone’s looking at either me or Dumbles.
“Ahem... Let’s continue with our partying, people!” Nintendo says.
After a second, the users resume their conversing. I get up, and place Dumbles onto a table. I look around the room. It looks like Simonbasher has joined, but he’s not doing much. Goomy enters the room, wearing a pirate costume.
“Arr matey, me arrived for the party! Me have come to join ye swashbucklers’ party in ye biggest way! Where be the dueling room?” He pulls out his sword and pistol.
Crystal steps out from her dark corner.
“Velcome, pirate,” she says.
“Ye up for a duel?” Goomy asks.
“Vy not, but you must be prepared to lose.”
“Ye accepts, but me will be no losin’ anyday!”
Goomy begins the duel by thrusting his sword at Crystal. Her eyes glow red, and she jumps out of the way of his sword. Then, she jumps on him and grabs his pistol. Goomy, keeping a strong grip on his sword, swings it behind him to get Crystal off his back, then swings it again to knock the pistol out of her hand. Crystal jumps on his back again, and throws his pistol far away. It hits Ben.
“You do have a strong grip on your sword, but can you beat my magic?” Crystal asks.
Goomy uses his sword to slice a table in half, and then picks it up and throws it on top of Crystal. She’s okay, but she seems hurt. She picks Goomy up and flies into the air. When she reaches the ceiling, she drops him.
{2020 Note} The original quote chains provided the pirate and vampire speak.

But we missed you...
I've been doing well. I graduated high school, got a job, I guess my life's finally going somewhere.
Yeah, I don't think there's a tiger pit here.
(Better keep an eye on it; there's no telling what it's been up to these past couple years... )

Chapter 5: More Crazy Partying
Goomy hits the ground, on his wooden leg. He looks at it, seeing that it’s cracked.
“Ye broke me leg!” he says, as he splashes a cup of punch at Crystal’s eyes.
She screams in pain, but then sees Goomy’s broken leg and begins laughing. She pushes him over and stands over him. Goomy completely breaks off his wooden leg (it doesn’t hurt; it’s wooden) and hits Crystal with it several times. She falls to her knees, and then onto the floor. Ben walks over and tosses the pistol on the ground.
“How do I keep becoming involved?” he asks.
Crystal sits up and looks at Goomy. “Pirate Boy, I am very, very innocent. You are the one who brought weapons to a party! I was just trying to do the right thing and remove your pistol from you and it is not my fault; it’s yours because it was your pistol that hit Ben. Maybe you should be apologizing to Ben?”
“Why should me do all thee apoligizen’ for?! And it ain’t me fault ye took me weapon!! What pirate doesn’t carry weapons with ’im?!”
Nintendo steps between them.
“Hey, stop! This was just supposed to be a friendly duel, not an argument!” he says.
“Sorry...” Crystal and Goomy say.
Nintendo nods and leaves the room.
To get the party going regularly again, Bun tells a spooky story, about the emote getting revenge for its underuse. After this, we continue partying as we did before the duel began. Gracie enters the party, dressed as an alien from Toy Story. She says that she came here because her friends were here, and she seems a bit concerned about Dumbles. The next arrival is Verrack, who is dressed in a pink sparkly tuxedo. Nintendo comes back in, dressed as a skeleton.
“What do y’all think about my new costume?” he asks.
We voice our approval. Jellson enters the party, dressed as an evil scientist. She offers candy, but nobody takes it. I come to her, but that’s because she has a cat with her. I pet the cat, who’s named Mr. Whiskers. I look at the table Dumbles is on, and see him begin to wake up.

*the can be seen turning slightly red* We are friendly!
This job kinda serves the same purpose. I doubt I'll stay here long-term; the schedules are too erratic.
I was thinking the same thing. The tough part is the daily question. I'm on every day, but I don't have question ideas. Maybe it should be a weekly question instead.
(That should hold it for a while. )
