1;; ☁ [ AUDIO ]

[myjunes]

[ There's silence for quite a bit with just some quiet natural background noise, but then a gasp can clearly be heard. ] T-this place, where--? ... ... Heaven..?

[ The sound of someone standing up and then footsteps resounding against the stones. ]

But if it's heaven, then I.. ... Hmm.. [ The voice sounds a bit more doutful as the footsteps halt for a moment before continuing on. ]

Mom? [ The voice definitely sounds more excited. ] Mom! Mom, I'm here! It's me!

[ The excitement echoes away as she starts to sound a bit more insecure. The footsteps stop too, leaving a painful silence behind. ] Mom..? You're here, right? You're not hiding, are you..? You don't want to see me?

[ After a moment of silence she speaks up again. ] Dad? [ The voice gets softer and a tad more desperate too. ] Big bro?

[she shouldn't be here, it's too dangerous, what if something like Undercity happened again while she was here she shouldn't be here -

[audio][3/4 >>]

[toplay-thefool.livejournal.com]

[But she is here, and he's - he ties that worry away, because what counts is being there, finding her. Taking a breath, he starts fumbling with the communicator.]

Nanako-chan, I'm -

[video] :D

[toplay-thefool.livejournal.com]

[And if she looks at the screen, big bro has now put video on so that she can see him. His expression is a small, calm smile, but there is an urgency to his tone regardless.]

- here.

[Heaven, dammit, she thinks it's Heaven - does she remember the tv world? The hospital?]

I need you to tell me what's around you so that I can come and get you, alright?

[ First there's another gasp, because what is his voice doing here out of nowhere? A part of her hadn't even expected an answer, so she's startled. ]

Big bro?!

[ When she follows the sound she finally manages to discover the device near her feet. Her big brother was on it and it looked like a television, but why would he be on television talking to her? Hm.. This is all hard to understand.. ]

[ Audio ] ♥

[myjunes]

[ She has a billion questions, but instead decides it might be better to answer first, especially since she's able to pick up the urgency she can hear. ]

Um.. There's this big stone building.. I can see houses, but they're further away.

[There's a small black cat sitting at the edge of the forest a little way away.

It seems to be watching the little girl quite intently.]

[ Action ]

[myjunes]

[ After a few moments she notices the cat and stands still, staring back at it. She seems a bit surprised by its appearance, but takes a few small steps towards it nonetheless and squats down to be on a more even level, even at a small distance still. ]

Hmm.. [ She frowns lightly, as if she's thinking about something. ] Hey kitty, do cats go to heaven too..? [ Or wasn't it heaven at all? She still didn't know. ]

[ Action ]

[dem-nasties.livejournal.com]

[The cat stays where it is for the moment, head tilting, perhaps inquisitive. It replies to her question with a little 'mew', tail flicking.]

[Have a young girl's voice in return, sounding worried for you.]

No be sad! You okay?

[ Audio ]

[myjunes]

[ After a small moment of surprise and figuring that the voice is coming from the device she answers. ]

Um.. I'm okay.. [ Dad always says she's not supposed to talk to strangers, but in this kind of situation it should be okay, right? ] ... I'm looking for mom.

[ Audio ]

[magic-ribbons.livejournal.com]

Looking for mama? Me too!

[Her voice is a little sad for a moment before perking a little.]

But...but! Souji help! He very nice!

[[ Audio ]]

[playful-shaman.livejournal.com]

[Have a kindly voice, heavily accented but attempting to be soothing.]

Oh! Are you alright little one?

[ Audio ]

[myjunes]

[ There's silence for a few moments, she's always a bit uncomfortable around strangers and doesn't really want to admit her current situation. But this person sounds nice, so.. ]

... I-It's okay. I'm just lost.

[ Audio ]

[playful-shaman.livejournal.com]

What do you see around you, little one?

[No way, that sounds like...]

[incriminating.livejournal.com]

...N-Nanako-chan?

[ Audio ]

[myjunes]

[ Wait, what? That's a familiar voice! She has to think a moment to place it, but then it becomes clear. ]

Um.. Adachi-san? Is that you?

[Voice]

[andallforone.livejournal.com]

Is that -?

[It almost seems absurd that Nanako would be here. She was safe; she'd been saved, and nothing dangerous should ever have to happen to her again. Why was she here? Yosuke could barely believe it when he heard her. He swallowed, hard, before he spoke again.]

H-hey, Nanako-chan? It's me, Yosuke. Are you all right?

[ Audio ]

[myjunes]

A-ah, hi! [ She doesn't even sound that bothered by the situation as long as she has people she knows to talk to; probably because she doesn't understand yet how dangerous it is. ]

Yes, I'm fine! I just woke up here.

[ Audio ]

[andallforone.livejournal.com]

You did? Okay, that's - that's okay, right?

Hey, Nanako, is your big bro coming to get you?

[voice]

[seventh-key.livejournal.com]

Wh-

[no way. NO FRIGGIN WAY.]

Nanako-chan? Is that you?!

[ Audio ]

[myjunes]

Uh-huh, it's me. [ She doesn't sound really shocked or sad anymore, her tone is more neutral. ]

I just woke up here. I kind of lost Inaba..

[Audio]

[proff-treacle.livejournal.com]

Oh my light, I'm afraid you likely wont find your family here.

[ Audio ]

[myjunes]

They're.. not here? [ There's clear disappointment in her voice. ]

B-but big bro is coming to pick me up! Even though he isn't really my big bro, he's my real big bro. Even if dad isn't here.
