This is the Interactive Story where you decide what happens (as long as I won't take over)! There are 2 modes you can write in: the command mode and the narration mode. In command mode you write commands; in narration mode you narrate the story doing the commands that were told before. Use bold text when narrating, end only then.

You are a rabbit. You are lost in a great desert and can't remember your name. Right next to you is a giant rock casting a shadow on you. There is some water flowing at the base of the rock, and 3 fruit trees growing near it, and the fruit seems edible.

Give the rabbit a name and I will decide which one is the best.

Lets say he is Bobby. I don't have time to continue the story now, it's your chance to take over.

Bobby was standing next to this rock, wondering why the heck he was standing next to this rock. He pondered on whether to continue wondering why the heck he was standing there, eat some of the deliciously looking fruits, swim along with the stream of water or do something beyond your wildest dreams.

He also wondered why he had been given such a boring, generic name. He knew the answer to this question would be of great importance later in his life.

Bold text during narration! *Slaps*

Bobby's hand went to his neck. Someone had slapped him, saying he should use bold text while narrating. He whirled around to confront the slapper, but nobody was there. That was odd... maybe he was hearing things again due to hunger. It wasn't the first time. Bobby sighed and grabbed some of the fruit and sat against the hard rock, eating blissfully.

Mysteriously enough the fruit and the water generates a chemical reaction which causes it to get dark already.
It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

<b>You stumble in the darkness for a bit. You search through your memories of learning about chemistry and physics for a logical explaination as to exactly what chemical reaction it was that caused the destruction of photons, but nothing comes to you.

Wandering around, you feel a spider web in your face. You attempt to brush it off, but when you touch it you realize it is too thick to be a spider web. You try to yank it away from you, and pull it down. Surprisingly, the sun lights up the sky again, and the cord snaps back up with the normal motion of a pull-cord attached to a light bulb. You have found the switch for the sun. You ask yourself: Could these hills of sand be the heavens? Could you be a solar deity? Could the rock be--God?</b>

Attempt to conjure fire from your fingertips for laughs.

Bobby decided not to bother about those existential questions and instead started practising his astounding magical abilities. He conjured some fire from his fingertips, which was quite hilarious. However, there was no one around to laugh, and as he just switched on the sun the fire didn't make much of a difference anyway. Bobby thought this might be a good time to explore the area some more. There seemed to be a city at the end of the stream of water.

I just thought of something.

If this forum topic is called War Tavern and the description says Jazz 2 Stories, what are we doing posting none jj2 related stories here?

Shouldn't all of these threads be deleted?

You have gone to the city to show your amazing abilities, but they stopped working. You also considered changing your name but you don't know what to change it to.

Change name to "Alphonse", and while you're at the town hall anyway ask whether anyone with the name "Jackrabbit" is living there.

Your name is now Alphonse. A blue rabbit has told you that there was Razz Jackrabbit living in this town (New Rootcity) but 1 month ago has moved to another city and he doesn't know where Razz is now.

Should we go after Razz?

Dermo

IDK. But I like how the story switched to a Jazz Jackrabbit story once I brought that point up lol.

Also I think you should not search for Razz and should go to a barber shop and get your hair cut to a mohawk.

Find Razz and cut his hair into a mohawk.

The Status is a simple indication of what Alphonse feels like, i.e. Status:Hungry, cold but happy.

You want to search for Razz but you don't know where he went. You are considering cutting your and his hair into a mohawk, but then some rabbits could think you are not worth their attention, or anything at all.

Status:Slightly hungry.

Edit: Oh, and I will probably gone for a week so someone will have to narrate.

You want to search for Razz but you don't know where he went. There's not much point in searching for someone if you know where he went, is there? ;)

Go to barber to have your hair cut and ask him whether he knows where Razz is, and if yes how to get to him.

I'm back. I'm switching to first person because it's easier.

I have gone around the town searching for a barber. I found one called Steven Carrotson. My hair is cut in the usual way (The usual way consists of the barber looking at the person and giving it the best hairstyle possible. And it's not a mohawk. Trust me.).
"Have you heard about Razz Jackrabbit?"
"Yes, of course! Who hasn't? Too bad he has moved away from New Rootcity one month ago." The barber looked a bit sad when he said the last sentence.
"Where is he, and how do I get to him?" I asked hoping for an answer that will be satisfying to me.
"I don't know where he is gone. There are some rumours but no-one knows for sure."


Status:Moderately hungry, a bit discouraged.

Go back to the barber and demand your money back since he didn't give you a mohawk. Then go do richeaous worldly things for the good of all.

I thought about going back to the barber and demanding the money back because he hasn't given me a mohawk, but then I noticed that a mohawk doesn't suit me and that I haven't paid anything anyway because there was a poster in front of the barber shop saying "First time free". And the idea was ridiculous anyway because I like the hairstyle.

Although it was the middle of the summer, for some reason it got chilly. As I was walking to the barber it started snowing. I quickly got in. The barber shouted "No! Not again! I hate when this happens! Last time the whole town was buried in snow!"
"Can I get my hair back?"
"Sure, I always keep it in case a customer wants it back. You never know!"

Ok, I felt terribly then. I think I'm able to narrate again,
"What about if I go to mechanics industry and ask about Razz?" I through out loud.
"You can't. The whole town is covered in snow, and it's not just any snow, it's 50 metre high snow. And do you know where the mechanics industry is? I don't. You'll have to wait until tunnels under the snow are dug." Butcher replied automatically and turned on the radio. All he could get was static.

The tunnel was finally finished.
"There you go", said barber "go and find that mechanics industry."

The tunnel was 2 meter in diameter. I walked into it and suddenly everything turned black.
