?? Folklore ??

[Tricia-chan 42]

Almost drowning in her own tears, Eliza managed to shout, unnecessarily, "What?!"

Meanwhile, thinking that they went to feed her, Ruru trotted into the kitchen. However, seeing only Raiden outside the bathroom door, she walked up, meowing.

[Rosie 3]

"Open the door!" he shouted back, looking down and shaking his head at Ruru.

[Tricia-chan 42]

"Why should I?!" Eliza demanded as she continued to sit there, crying.

Ruru cocked her head to the side, apparently confused.

[Rosie 3]

"Well, what ELSE are you going to do? Cry in there all night?!" Raiden retorted, taking a moment to crouch down and shake his finger in front of Ruru's face.

[Tricia-chan 42]

"I don't know! Maybe..." Eliza said, lessening the volume in her voice. "Where else am I supposed to? You don't like crying."

Ruru tried sniffing Raiden's finger.

[Rosie 3]

Raiden rolled his eyes, not trying to stop Ruru sniffing him. "I don't like snot, if I'm being specific."

[Tricia-chan 42]

Even though she was crying like crazy, she choked on a laugh. After a minute or two, when she had calmed down a little, Eliza reached for the door knob and unlocked the door.

[Rosie 3]

In the meantime, Raiden had realised it was probably about time he got dressed while Eliza was still out of the room and he could get to his clothes. After tugging them all back on, and surpressing a grimace at how messy they looked, he picked up Ruru in an attempt to stop her meowing for food. When he heard the door click, Raiden went over to it, stroking Ruru's head as he looked down at Eliza, slightly worried.

"Want to talk about it?" he offered.

[Tricia-chan 42]

For a moment, Eliza simply stared at the ground. "... No. It was just... a bad dream..." A moment later, as though changing her mind, she added, "He was the only friend that I ever had..."

[Rosie 3]

"C'mon," Raiden smiled briefly, not quite sure what to say. "I don't think he'd want to see you like this, if he was here. Am I right?"

[Tricia-chan 42]

Eliza paused, but then she resumed saying, "But... he left me all by myself. The only one that I can care for is his cat."

Ruru meowed in response.

[Rosie 3]

"Huh..." Raiden dropped his gaze to the floor, unsure of what to say, or to do. In an attempt to avoid talking, he focused his attention on Ruru, lifting the cat higher in his arms, hugging her against his chest.

[Tricia-chan 42]

Eliza continued to sit there, not very much budging. Once in a while, she would take her hand and rub her irritated eyes.

Ruru began to purr, only meowing lightly once.

After a few minutes, Eliza spoke up, "I have another request..."

[Paopufruity 122]

(Okay so what did I miss??)

 

Kana looked down on the unconscious man. "Who are you......" then she turned back to Evany "Lets get back to what we were saying before this weirdo showed up...."

[Tricia-chan 42]

(( Honestly? Nothing at all. :'D ))

 

"Yeah, but we should gain some distance from him first," Evany pointed out.

[Rosie 3]

"Mm-hm? What is it?" Raiden asked, still stroking his fingers along the back of Ruru's head.

[Paopufruity 122]

"Yeah. Where should we go.....?" Kana asked him. She still has mixed feelings about all of this but she decided she was gonna suck it up and tell him about what really happened that night...

[Tricia-chan 42]

"If you give me another hug, I'll let you have the bed for the night," Eliza stated, still having her eyes fixated (sp?) on the texture of the floor.

 

"There should be a portal ahead," Evany stated. "It'll take us to the next realm."

[Paopufruity 122]

"Okay come on then....." said Kana pulling him along

[Rosie 3]

"Eliza, I'm not going to steal your bed, you idiot," Raiden said, turning away and kneeling down to drop Ruru to the floor. Without saying anything, he turned back around and hugged her anyway. "You need the rest, anyway. You're on your feet all day," he mumbled.

[Tricia-chan 42]

Eliza froze. For a moment, she forgot to count the seconds. "Um... Okay...." she murmured.

 

After walking some distance, they approached a portal. "Here it is," Evany stated.

[Paopufruity 122]

"Okay..." Kana took a deep breath. She was scared but she had to do this. Kana grabbed Evany's hand and pulled him gently inside "C'mon..."

[Rosie 3]

"And you don't have to worry. I'm going to go back and face my father tomorrow, so you'll have me out of your hair."

[Tricia-chan 42]

Eliza paused. She found herself becoming sad again. "... Alright."

 

(( .... Oh God. Oh God. I just read that pervertedly. Oh God! >n< ))

 

As they entered, they appeared in a water-based realm. (I forgot the correct name, so let's call it SeaWorld.)

[Paopufruity 122]

(Read what pervertedly?? And okay)

 

"Where are we...?" Kana asked looked at the water and everything "Its so pretty.."
