[Tohru looked nervous as she glanced at her new surroundings. This town looked nothing like she was use to and she doesn't remember how she got here... except of course for the feel of darkness as she blacked out. But apart from that it was confusing.]

I-I don't mean to be rude, but... [She had already been given her device and munny by the moogle and after the shock of a talking stuff bear of some kind, Tohru still did not understand what was going on.] I'm still not sure what these teddy bears are talking about?

[She gripped the device lightly. he darkness took her world is what they said, but Tohru didn't understand what that meant. Where her friends okay, what about the curse she wanted to break, was it all for nothing? With her eyes glancing down, her face was one of sadness.]

What of my friends? Kyo-kun, Yuki-kun a-and the others. Are they here as well? [She held the device close to her chest, in hope that they too were okay and that they would find her soon.]

[Despite having labeled the communicator as not up to par originally, Mokuba was finding himself a bit glued to it. Therefore when he saw another girl show up under similar circumstances as his own he thought he might as well reply]

I'm sorry to be the first to tell you this, but your friends might not have come here with you.

[He hadn't thought she was rude at all]

I did find my older brother though.. so maybe they'll turn up too.

[Tohru knew she was going to keep an optimistic view of the situation, so as the moogle had wandered off, she had gone to sit down else where close by.]

I know they'll turn up. I just have to think positive.

[Although there is a case of her mother...oh dear god where was her mother.] I-I think I left mom at home.

You must be really close to them to have such faith in them.

[She sounded like she was okay anyway.]

[Until then]Oh- yeah.. it seems like people usually arrive here alone but.. what does your mother look like? [Wait! This sounded kinda familiar. Masane was looking for her daughter, and this girl was missing her mother? It might be a long shot but he had to ask] Is your name Rihoko?

[She nodded slightly, smiling her usual silly smile, if only for a brief moment before the worry for her mother sinks in some more.]

We're very close, they were kind enough to let me live with them, when I ended up living in a tent for a week. [Plus she knows there secret, but she'll never tell.]

[She shook her head slightly.] I don't recognize that name. My mother is this big. [She holds her hands up after putting the device down to give a sort of rectangle shape... wait a minute.] And she looks very beautiful.

You were living in a tent? [Was her house undergoing renovations? or... what?]

[Cue a little disappointment here. He was hoping that he could reunite them but.. it wasn't meant to be] What is your name then?

[What in the?] There's no one whose that tiny. [With a shake of his head]... or.. is there? [This strange land was making him question it] Her name isn't Thumbelina right? [Cuz that would be toooo weird]

At the time, yes. [Ironically, yes it was because of renovations, but when she did move back it wasn't long before she moved out again.]

My name is Tohru Honda. It's a pleasure to meet you. [Cue bowing slightly, taking the device with her as she did.]

Oh no, mom wasn't Thumbelina, but she once told me that story.

[This mist wasn't ideal for flying about out there, even for a gawd so he decided to use the communicator to field this one]

All right babe, let me lay it on you.

[He decided it had been a while since he used the old lyre so he might as well relate the tale to her in verse.]

♬ Once the lands were divided and free,
but a maelstrom of darkness appeared.
Along with the din came a fearsome, insurmountable army,
It grew ever stronger the longer it fed on everyone's fears.
Those of strong heart
Were drawn far apart
They arrived in a crazy Town, by the name of Traverse.
Wondering how this could ever be.♪

Wondering how this could ever be.♬

[Tohru listened quietly to the music and the lyrics and one it was over, she put the device down to at least be able to clap a round of applause.]

That was a nice song, thank you.

[He kind of missed having more occasions to do that. Like.. he hadn't been celebrating any of the Greek holidays.. Titan Smiting day inparticular involved telling the tale of Zeus's triumph over the Titans in song]

Anytime, Babe. Did it help shed any light on the situation?

[She nodded quite a bit and fast, nearly making herself kind of dizzy.]

Oh yes, I learn a lot from it.

I've been debating adding other verses to it.. no one else seems to be keeping up the tradition of relating events through song.

[He paused and looked thoughtful for a moment before continuing]

You might wanna seek shelter, babe. That mist has been playing havoc on your fellow humans.

Fellow humans? What do you mean by that?

[Like most of the residents, Agni had been otherwise occupied. It was making it difficult to make time to check the communicator]

Miss, please forgive me if I sound doubly rude but I believe you should take refuge in one of the buildings before discussing anything in great detail.

I assure you that it is for your own well being.

[She shook her head slightly.] I don't think it's rude, but I don't understand why. [She tilts her head slightly, unsure why people tell her to go inside. It was just fog after all right?]

This may be difficult to believe but this mist has the ability to display your greatest fears before you and they can appear just as real as you or I.

Wa-Wait! Can mist really do that?! [She had seen odd things like people changing into animals, but never this.]

Here it can. Usually, no.

[You've been to the pridelands! j/k j/]

I-I didn't know that. What do I do?

[ Nero is not exactly the social butterfly welcome wagon sort of guy... but damn that quiver in her voice... he can't stand to hear a girl cry. Not that she is yet. Also there is something else wrong here. ]

Girl, uh... you might want to point that thing at a different angle there.

[ With you holding it so close to your CHEST and all. ]

Huh? [She doesn't actually understand what you mean, but she is going to move it away to look at the device.]

I-I'm sorry! [Though as to what about she doesn't know, she just feels like this will make things better.]
