methodic madness

Atla would not get lost. If he were injured Master Hakurei would be able to find him using his cosmo.

[Yuzuriha looks around at the various distressed people. All of whom seem to be missing someone important to them. This actually makes her feel rather calm. Though it has nothing to do with misery enjoying company.]

Atla cannot be found. And I found a stranger in Jamir not long after that...even nomads rarely venture into these mountains and this person was ill prepared. This would be all part of the same "experiment" wouldn't it?

How I'm supposed to find Atla though...this doesn't help. [The tightening between her brow is the only sign of her anxiety but it's very much there.]

Comments

[contract_star]

You too?

That makes...it must be six by now, at least. I'm missing someone too, and so is Mu.

[hua-fei.livejournal.com]

Atla has gone missing. While searching the mountain though I found an unconscious person.

There were mentions of people trading places with each other. Could our missing companions have somehow traded places as well?

[contract_star]

You found someone? [Trying to keep the excitement out of his voice.]

Thats what Mu and I think. What does the person you found look like?

[hua-fei.livejournal.com]

Adult male, thick dark hair, tanned skin. He's unconscious at the moment though, it seems he's been lost in the mountains for a day or so... It's a good thing I found him. The conditions here aren't kind to those who come unprepared.

[contract_star]

[Brief look of disappointment.] Someone will be glad to hear you've found him, then.

What about the one you're missing...Atla. What does he look like?

[hua-fei.livejournal.com]

He looks... [She considers this for a moment.]

Remarkably like Mu actually. He about [motions,] this tall...and his hair goes down to his shoulders, aside from that he looks like a smaller version of Mu.

[contract_star]

Alright. I'll keep an eye out for him. And we should let the others with missing people know that you found someone.

[hua-fei.livejournal.com]

If the matter is simply to find someone that doesn't fit within our reality then it could be relatively simple.

[contract_star]

Exactly. It's only a matter of time before this is all resolved. [He hopes.]

[hua-fei.livejournal.com]

I hope so. [sighs]

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

You're missing someone too?

[hua-fei.livejournal.com]

Yes.

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

So the Twins are still taking people.

Um, that person you found. What did they look like?

[hua-fei.livejournal.com]

Adult male, thick dark hair, tanned skin... he probably lost consciousness from exhaustion and thurst.

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

Oh. A while ago the Twins made everyone switch realities...maybe that's what they did with the missing people. That man might be from someone else's reality..

[hua-fei.livejournal.com]

I have heard of that incident from Mu and Li. It doesn't seem an unlikely scenario.

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

I don't see why the Twins have to mess with people that don't have anything to do with this place. Isn't it enough that they've dragged us here?

[hua-fei.livejournal.com]

I don't think they care either way.

[lamb_of_gold]

[Chewing on his thumb] Kiki's vanished as well.

[hua-fei.livejournal.com]

[Frowns, she understands his worry.] It will be undone.

[lamb_of_gold]

That provides me no solace.

[hua-fei.livejournal.com]

It is a fact, not something said to comfort. You will just have to bear with it until this is resolved.

[lamb_of_gold]

[Angrily]And if it isn't?

[lamb_of_gold]

[There is a long moment of silence afterwards] Forgive me. My anger was uncalled for.

[hua-fei.livejournal.com]

[Tightly,] I understand your frustration.

[Turns away,] Frustration and worry will not help the issue, we can only do what is in our power.

[lamb_of_gold]

What does Alta look like? I will ask around Rodorio and, if I must Athens.

[hua-fei.livejournal.com]

[Sighs,] He is a little taller than Kiki with hair and eyes the same colour as yours.

[lamb_of_gold]

....You jest.

[hua-fei.livejournal.com]

No. You two look remarkably alike.

[lamb_of_gold]

I believe I hear the gods of fate laughing at us.

[hua-fei.livejournal.com]

...why?

[lamb_of_gold]

Pay no mind.

This person you found...have there been any others?

[hua-fei.livejournal.com]

No, just this one. He seems a bit ill, probably affected by the altitude.

[lamb_of_gold]

I'm sure he will adapt.
