A labyrinthine problem - [Labyrinth plot with asmallamoroso]

[this...is not the place she expects to see when she arrives on the Plane. no impossible amount of stars, just the cool, stone walls and floor. thank goodness she's wearing trainers or her feet would hurt later on, though she wishes she thought to wear a cardigan at least and rubs her bare forearms.]

Right, this isn't funny...

Oi, let me out now from wherever I am! If you don't, I'll find my own way out and beat down the door of that damned shop. Do you hear me? [her voice echoes like mad, but she doesn't hear reply to her threat. and darn it all, she can't help feeling a bit scared now.]

[ A little ways down Ai could be seen walking along the corridor with a hand pressed against the cold stone. The little badge in her other hand was obviously useless but still she held onto it regardless. A comfort factor even if she won't be saying that out loud. Her school-pack was still on her back over her jacket and her sneakers were hardly making a sound.

Despite how calm she appeared to be the girl had her guard up and her eyes were darting this way and that constantly, trying to pick up on something-- anything at all. And after a good ten minutes of wandering around she was rewarded. ]

--!

[ Her pace quickened as she aimed for where she heard the voice. At this point there wasn't much else she really could do. It was a risk she would have to take if she wanted to find her way out of here. ]

[if her nerves weren't already wound tight and her ears straining to hear every single little sound, she might not have heard those faint but quick little footsteps]

All right, you can come out! It's those flipping twins doing this, isn't it? [she marches forward, hand at the ready to dole out some well deserved punishments--but she stops when she sees a little girl who doesn't look anything like those twins and her tone completely changes]

Hello? Oh sweetheart, what are you doing here?

[ Please don't deck the little girl! She pocketed the badge almost instantly as her steps stopped just short of the other woman. ]

I'm afraid I came here unexpectedly.

[she doesn't! instead, she kneels down so she's closer to eye-level]

You and me both, darling. What's your name? I'm Donna.

[ She smiles just a little when she recognizes her accent. ]

My name is Ai.

Nice to meet you, Ai. [puts on a smile for her] Listen, it might be best if we stick together until we can find the way out.

[asmallamoroso.livejournal.com]

That would be best. I don't know what happened but it looks like we're stuck in some sort of maze...

Or a long, stony corridor. [mumbles] Always corridors...

Right, let's head this way. [reaches for Ai's hand]
