[Mion suddenly on the Astral Plane, kneeling on the ground with her hands to her chest.]

—last night, and now I can't find him anywhere!

[Her voice is low, and it takes her a few moments to realize where she is. She sniffs before rising to her feet.]

Kei-chan...?

Mion? What happened?

[demonsblood.livejournal.com]

It's Kei-chan. H-he disappeared.

And last night was... [Mion frowns and looks down at the ground.]

[contract_star]

Was...?

Mion, it's okay. A whole bunch of us are missing people. I'm sure it's the same thing with you.

The Watanagashi festival.

[waitaminute.] What...?

[contract_star]

I remember you talking about it. What would the festival have to do with your friend disappearing?

[Nods.] There's ten of us, probably more. We think they've ended up in other realities, like with the reality swap.

Every year, someone is murdered and someone else disappears on the night of the festival. [She looks thoughtful.] But Rena-chan said it was Tomitake-san and Takano-san...

So if you're right, then that means Kei-chan is still alive! [Mion seems to brighten up a little bit.]

[contract_star]

Every year? That's...terrible. Hasn't anyone...[Trails off, now isn't the time.]

I'm sure he is. We're all going to get together and help to try and track everyone down. What does Kei-chan look like?

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

You're missing someone too?

[demonsblood.livejournal.com]

I hope Kei-chan didn't transfer away...

[...] Too?

There are a lot of people who have someone missing from their worlds. We think the Twins are involved.

[demonsblood.livejournal.com]

The Twins? Like when we got mixed up a while ago?

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Maybe..maybe they did the same thing this time, only switched other people instead of us.
