[This is the first transmission Naru's made since she abruptly left Traverse Town without telling any of the others she was going. It's been a couple of days, so even though she doesn't want to give away where her and Nephrite might be... she does want to let people know she's alright]

Hey everyone. It's Naru here.

I'm sorry i left so suddenly but everything is alright. You don't need to worry or anything.

[The message pauses as she tries to think of what else to say]

Don;t try to find me or anything. I'm sure we can meet again sometime. Until then, at least we have the communicators. Usagi, at least try to give the school a shot, alright? [i thought I'd be going with you...now I'm not so sure] And Ami, thanks again for everything you've done. You stay out of trouble too!

[Debates leaving messages for Usagi's other friends, but she hadn't really had the chance to speak to them much beforehand. Perhaps, given that Nephrite and her were in hiding, it was for the best that she hadn't. Though she still held some regrets about it]

Are you really safe?

[Voice-Filtered]

[share-a-parfait.livejournal.com]

[That wasn't as simple to answer as it should have been. This was a new world and who really knew how safe it was, plus there were people looking for Nephrite.. and well.. she'd never spent this much time alone with Nephrite either. Naru didn't really think too many people would condone running off with an older man]

Yeah, of course. [But.. she sounded a little unsure]

[Voice-Filtered]

[soldierofthesky.livejournal.com]

You don't sound certain, Naru.

[Voice-Filtered]

[share-a-parfait.livejournal.com]

Well-- I just haven't gotten used to this new place yet.

[Partially true]

[Voice-Filtered]

[soldierofthesky.livejournal.com]

Fair enough.

But if you do need help ever, let me know.

[Voice]

[innerflow.livejournal.com]

[This is not reassuring. Not at all. It screams of secrets and perhaps even coercion. It reads like a script.]

Naru-chan, are you sure you're alright? This doesn't sound quite right.

[Voice]

[share-a-parfait.livejournal.com]

[Her efforts were having an effect that were the exact opposite of what she'd been going for]

I'm sure. I.. [Pause] just wanted to see what the other worlds were like. [Worst lying ever]

[Voice]

[innerflow.livejournal.com]

[It was the 'don't try to find me', really. And if Naru is just traveling, why wouldn't she tell them where?

But she can't really pry, either.]

If anything happens, please call us right away.

[Voice]

[share-a-parfait.livejournal.com]

[Sounds like she's managed to get out of explaining anything ]

I sure will. Thank you Ami.

[Voice]

[innerflow.livejournal.com]

[Not entirely.]

And next time, please trust us to tell us right away. This isn't safe, to go off alone here.

(ooc: mind if Zoi pops up btw? he can scare her to death give her the orgel >D)

[Action] Boundaries and personal space? What are those?

[musicite.livejournal.com]

[For all their efforts, they haven't escaped Zoisite at all. In fact, he's standing quietly behind Naru. He makes his presence known after a moment of allowing that chilling someone-is-watching feeling. He looks at some distant point instead of at Naru. His voice (as always, it seems) is low and mild.]

Nephrite is also near?

[He's very sure of his feeling.]

[Action]

[share-a-parfait.livejournal.com]

[A hand flies up to cover her mouth at the sight of him.]

How did you get here!?

[if Zoisite had already managed to find them... would this mean that have to move again?! She looked to the communicator and wondered if using it had been a mistake. Naru tensed and looked back at Zoisite. He was still looking for Nephrite....]

I don't have to answer that.

[Action]

[musicite.livejournal.com]

[They can move, but he'll find them just as easily. He ignores Naru's refusal to answer - he already knows it, and he is no longer the man who might simply hypnotize her for the response. No, he moves on to his business in coming here instead.]

I have come to see you.

[Action]

[share-a-parfait.livejournal.com]

[She really isn't sure how Zoisite keeps finding them, but it's reallllllly creepy]

Me? Why me?

[Action] keywords, naru. KEYWORDS. >D

[musicite.livejournal.com]

[He turns towards her finally, and holds out his hand. A small, finely-crafted music box appears in his palm.]

When you encounter Heartless, this orgel will drive them away.

[Action]

[stars-know-all.livejournal.com]

You shouldn’t use that device… There are too many people looking for us.

[Action]

[share-a-parfait.livejournal.com]

[Naru visibly jumped. She'd tried to be so careful to try using it when Nephrite wasn't paying attention]

I just wanted to let everyone know I was alright.

[Action]

[stars-know-all.livejournal.com]

[When wouldn’t e be paying attention to you? You are a very fascinating kind of person. ]

They probably didn’t even notice you were gone.

[That… came out harsher than he meant it to. Back petal, back petal! ]

I mean… we did just leave. They wouldn’t have had time to notice.

[Action]

[share-a-parfait.livejournal.com]

[dlkfjdklfklfkldjfkljdlfjl]

You really think that no one--

[It did come out kind of harsh]

Oh, I see what you mean.

[Action]

[stars-know-all.livejournal.com]

They would miss you if something happened to you?

[Curious. ]

[voice] /AND NOW FOR THE FIRST LATE TAG OFF MY HIATUS ;;

[ourshininghope.livejournal.com]

E-eh?

What.. what are you talking about, Naru-chan? Don't try to find you? [ Too late, she's been doing a lot of searching off camera between all the different things she and the senshi have been up to. ]

Come on, Naru-chan, don't say things like that! You're my best friend!

[voice] /WELCOME BACK

[share-a-parfait.livejournal.com]

Oh... Hi Usagi. Please don't be worried, alright?

[She knew this would be one of the hardest conversation she'd have to face]

I'm sure we'll see each other again. It just might be a little while.

[voice] /GIVES LOTS OF CUDDLES TO

[ourshininghope.livejournal.com]

I.. I don't understand, Naru-chan. Why can't you tell me where you're going?

[ Just the thought of Naru going off on her own in a totally different world than their own.. lets just say it's a little difficult to keep herself from being overprotective. ]

Are you at least with someone? They can protect you, right?!

[voice] /CUDDLES BACK

[share-a-parfait.livejournal.com]

It's kind of complicated Usagi. Believe me, I would tell you if I could.

[Am I with someone?! How did she know!? Stay Calm Naru. She nodded solemnly.]

I'm not alone. I'm sure I'll be fine.

[voice] Sob Naru-chan. Usagi just want to make sure you're okay. ;A;

[ourshininghope.livejournal.com]

[ Usagi does have some deductive reasoning! Naru usually comes to her for help, right? If she doesn't.. then she's with someone! See? ]

..... Can you at least tell me something? Anything else?
