[ Maybe it's their mind playing tricks on them, maybe it's just a figment of their imagination. Or did they just see someone scamper past in a black trench coat? They just might have. Yet for some reason, someone- while it's hard to distinguish who with their hood up like that, comes briskly darting along not-so-subtly through the streets.

They look like they're just trying too hard, but it's habit and they just... need to feel that comfort zone as they do their best to get away from that moogle who seemed a little too curious about them. And its persistence only made them further push away, further remember what they have to do. A matter that assembles into words as they look down at the device it gave them at the corner of an alley, taking a breather. What did that moogle say about it? They turn it over curiously before that attention becomes mechanical, attention diverting elsewhere. [Accidental Audio] ]

How did I get here? [ The voice is that of a young girl, pausing uncertainly afterwards. Some people might even recognize that voice. It happens to be that of a familiar red head... ] ...I have to get back to the-

Hi there! Are you new here, kupo?

[ There's a surprised yelp followed by crackling as the communicator hits the ground. ]

( ooc: Meet Xion. She's a little bit on the skittish side at the moment due to just having woken up after, uh, fighting with one of her best friends. And now she's on the look-see about finishing what she was out to do, but then moogles happened. Feel free to catch her either while she's running around or respond to her whoops!audio or whatever floats your boat. )

[So she's stopped by traverse town to pick up a few things....maybe get a treat for herself from a store too. But she didn't expect to see someone so strangely dressed running towards an alley.

Curiosity getting the better of her, she follows after the small shape, finally catching up only after they've been scared half to death by the moogle]

Um... Are you okay?

Edited 2012-07-12 04:09 (UTC)

[ Okay, seriously. She wasn't scared half to death, okay? Simply surprised. Yes. She's going to stick to that story and no one can stop her. Ah-ha! Of course, that also means that jump at the voice behind her had nothing to do with her being surprised either. Nor the way she slowly looks back as if expecting a ghost.

And lo and behold, it's... not a ghost. It's a girl. A girl with a couple of bags at that. A resident of this world, she guesses. Xion takes a step back before something seems to hit her. And shortly after, she's on the ground, searching for the device she dropped. She doesn't know why, but somehow it just doesn't feel right not taking proper care of it even if it won't matter soon enough. The moogle still entrusted it to her, emphasized its importance, so. ]

[she holds her hands up.] A-ah! Wait, don't worry. I'm a friend. Promise! [She smiles, sticking her tongue out casually.]

-Huh? [ She looks up from the ground, her hand now clutching the communicator in her hands. There's just something about the way the girl holds herself. It's just a little bit... off. She doesn't know how exactly, but... she doesn't take her eyes off of her as Xion slowly gets to her feet. She's uneasy, she knows she has to get going. But there's just this funny feeling, making her pause for just a moment... ]

[Usagi holds her smile for a moment, tilting her head to the side a little.]

You just got here, right? It's okay! It happens to everyone! Hehe. I was pretty scared when I got here at first too. My names Usagi, what's yours?

[She's trying her best at least, to make the younger girl feel more at ease.]

[ And that... answers her question. Though it also... makes her feel a little more than unsure. Just got here...? How did she know she hasn't been around this world before? ~~Save the very obvious out of context coat which people don't usually wear at any of the worlds she's been to, but pssha. Details.~~

Instinctively, she takes a step back, but she doesn't go any further than that. At least for now. ] How did you know..? I mean- ... [ Way to spell things out for her even more, Xion. ...Wait though. ] What do you mean by 'everyone'?

[She purses her lips, and looks off in a thoughtful sort of expression.]

A lot of people have been showing up here. [Her expression shifts as she recalls her own world and its apparent fate.] ...because their worlds have been...

[ She... doesn't like that look. She doesn't like it at all. Just what is this girl implying...? There's a bad feeling in the pit of her stomach. Was she... Was she too late? Certainly, things couldn't have gotten that bad... but then she's been unconscious for days and days before, so...

She doesn't really want to ask. But she wants to know more than not and so, she prompts uneasily: ] Because their worlds have been...?

[She shakes her head. It bothers her to think about, considering the amount of blame she places on her own shoulders for her world's fate. When she speaks, it's quiet.]

They've been lost in darkness...

[ Her own expression darkens at that albeit it's hard to see when it's veiled by her hood. Because that... is something she was afraid of. She knows little of light and dark, sure, but she understands enough that darkness means the overpopulation of Heartless, the end of that world. She's done her research compliments of snooping around. ]

...I see. [ Which means. ] -I have to go. [ She's lingered too long as it is. What could have become of Roxas by now? She doesn't know. But what she does know is now more than ever, she has to hurry. ]

But.. Um.. [a frown. She flexes her fingers loosely, blue eyes watching the hooded girl full of concern.]

Do you know where you're trying to go? Maybe I could help you.

[ She shakes her head quickly. ] No- it's. Okay. This is something... I have to do by myself.

[ Though it doesn't make her feel any less guilty seeing that expression in Usagi's eyes. Pushing away someone like this, someone who genuinely seems like she wants to help despite not knowing the circumstances... Xion never expected she would be dealing with a situation like this. It feels awkward... Part of her wishes there was even a way... but she brushes off the thought just as quick, turning on her heel. ]

But... [Usagi stopped herself from saying anything else, taking a couple of steps back in the direction she'd come from.]

Please... be careful.

I... I will.

[ She doesn't look Usagi's way, but she does at least try to carry her tone more firmly. She can't go back on this. Not with the circumstances as they are. So, she'll be starting away down the road now, yep. ]
