After spending a good deal of time in Auntie Unde's, found the supplies they had wanted for the most part, and Al's brother, Ed had caught up to them, they had finally taken leave of the general store. Marona was thankful that the strange white creatures had appeared to have scattered from the earthquake, so they didn't seem to have any problems finally escaping the shop, which had worried her. They didn't seem to be in still much shape to really take the creatures on.

Despite the coast being clear, Marona still stayed close as she could to the group. She hated to depend on them like this, but she knew she would be in big trouble if they were attacked and she were divided from them. She was a chroma after all, and although she was still rather new at it, she did know a little about fighting. She had to know how to keep herself out of harms way, so her phantom friends wouldn't have to worry about her while they attacked the enemies.

So she strolled trying to keep up the best she could, although she seemed a little lost in her own world. She had her journal out again, and was softly humming and singing to herself. Apparently she was trying to keep herself occupied.

"Kotoba jya tarinakute ai de mo ..."

Her voice was already strained, and it cracked apart before she could finish. She sighed softly and fell silent again, and returned to just playing with the device in her hands.

"Eh..? ...!"

Marona suddenly came to a dead stop as the others continued to go forward. Her small hands gripped the journal as she read it several more times over. Lifting her head to look to her companions, she sprinted back up to them, tears in her eyes, but a smile on her lips.

"ASH! Someone has seen Ash!" she cried, relief clearly overflowing, "I don't know where he is yet, but ... Hopefully I'll know soon."

She hugged the journal close, thankful it had come in useful after all, "I'm so relieved .. Ash is here, and is looking for me!"

"Yes, we can communicate through the journals," Karst mused. "But I'd rather have an ally handy in an unfamiliar or dangerous place-- and this city is both unfamiliar AND dangerous. That's also the reason I'd like to get a scythe as quickly as possible," she added, gazing at the unfamiliar map on the screen of Marona's journal. "Not only would it be handy in defending myself and others, it would be something familiar."

And fighting off enemies to protect others is also familiar, and a good thing to do until I know for certain whether or not I can or should return home from here. Whatever 'here' is. But she didn't say that aloud.
