[Tokyo Chance]

ooc - np! and 4th works for meee. i am sooo close to convincing nina to rejoin, btw. XD 300+ words ic - Tokyo was very near a state of panic. It appeared the land of her birth had been entirely burnt down by a fire, and even more frightening, there was no one there to be found. The majority of the old scents appeared to head in this direction. Jaded Shadows had better be somewhere this side of the mountain range. It had taken her forever to cross, let alone to get down this far south in the first place! She was somewhat uncharacteristically in her shifted form; it had just been easier to clamber up and down some of the more particularly rocky spots. Especially while carrying her belongings: a leather satchel bounced at her hip as she walked on. There wasn't really much in it, just the diary Champ had left her and a book of fairy tales she was fond of. When in quad form, it held the faded green dress currently wrapped around her body. It was too small and clung close to her body; she had taken it when originally leaving Bleeding Souls. Luckily she hadn't grown terribly much, and was also significantly less well fed. If Tokyo had any knowledge at all about human fashion, she would probably be quite appalled at being caught in something so simple and practical. There. That was someone, in the distance. She altered her path for interception, and caught up to him after a few moments. She was vaguely conscious of the fact that she should be afraid of this stranger, and that he could probably hurt her. But why would anyone ever want to hurt Tokyo? That wouldn't make any sense. Well, he could be of some use. Save her some time exploring these strange lands. Her words were an odd mix of politeness and condescension. "Excuse me, boy. Which way from here to Jaded Shadows?" She managed to identify what was in his hands. Ew. "Also, you shouldn't touch that. It's gross." </style>
