Little Girl Lost [Active, Open]

[eternitydreamer.livejournal.com]

Character(s): NiGHTS, open to anyone else (thread set-up will be similar to "party" posts, so if you want your characters to interact along with NiGHTS, please include them in the same thread ♥)
Content: NiGHTS looks for Yuna.
Setting: The entire city of Paixao, but mostly Cea de Mouraria and City Hall later on.
Time: Late morning, week six
Warnings: None yet.

NiGHTS, being who he was, seldom felt like being on any side whatsoever. On the occasions that he did, however, it was usually the good side these days (evil, as NiGHTS had discovered countless years ago, was usually strict and therefore boring) - and now was no different. His new friend, Belle, was worried about her room mate, Yuna - and although NiGHTS and Yuna had never met, he was in a helpful sort of mood right now and therefore more likely to do something about it. He'd idled these past few days after setting up an alert to see what happened, and was intrigued by the replies he'd gotten.

So it was today that he flew, searching about the city... until he came to the Cea de Mouraria. He remembered Auron mentioning it, but he hadn't quite been expecting the state it was in. Sure, the opera house was being repaired, but there were clear signs that a large battle had taken place in the area. NiGHTS pouted for a moment and crossed his arms; maybe he should have gone to the party after all.

Oh, well. He'd check City Hall once he was finished with this area. Hopefully, there would be signs of the poor girl somewhere around Paixao.

Karrin froze when she heard someone shout hey. It didn't occur to her to look 'up' at first until NiGHTS was right there in front of her. There was a sharp intake of breath, clearly she was surprised, but she was trying not to show it too much.

Karrin hated being caught off guard.

It was then that she recognized this as one of the people she had spoken to about Yuna, "Yes, I'm Sgt. Karrin Murphy. Any news on Yuna yet?"

NiGHTS laughed at the look of surprise on the woman's face. It never ceased to be amusing, really, the way people blinked as though NiGHTS were an illusion, or the way some of them shook their heads (even in dreams) as if to dispel the mere notion that NiGHTS was really there.

"I'm NiGHTS!" he greeted, cheerful as ever despite the situation. "And no, I haven't found anything regarding Yuna yet - but there's definitely something suspicious about this building." He gestured to the opera house. "I'm not surprised, since it's where Hades held his party."

NiGHTS...right. Karrin took another minute or so but eventually she composed herself. She'd seen a lot of weird things in her time...NiGHTS had just made it to the top of the list.

Karrin turned to look at the building, "Does this building have anything to do with Yuna? I'm really not here to admire architecture or talk about some guy's party."

NiGHTS was used to people thinking he was weird. They were right, of course, but that was normal for NiGHTS - and it was funny, anyway. He grinned at the woman again and "sat" in mid-air, crossing his arms and examining the woman. "It might," he answered. "Since Hades threw a party here, there might be something left behind, so I'm checking this place out before I go to City Hall." He looked around for a moment, humming contemplatively to himself. "I don't see anything so far, though..."

She was slowly, very slowly mind you, getting used to NiGHTS. After the initial shock she realized this wasn't much weirder than anything else she'd dealt with. The bonus was this was one of the few weird things that DIDN'T try to kill her. "Is Hades known to frequent this place? Did he have any connection to Yuna," she knew she was asking a lot of questions, but she needed to know these things if she was going to be of any help.

NiGHTS thought for a moment. "I don't think so," he replied, "but I know he had a party here." With a chuckle, he added, "that's why they're rebuilding." NiGHTS would have been amused (and maybe a little insulted) by Karrin's thoughts - but as it was, he wasn't a mind reader, and thus didn't care. "And I don't know if he has any connections to Yuna, but she's a friend of Auron's or something, and that's who Hades is really after, from what I've gathered." Really, using a hostage was so boring. Wasn't anybody original any more?
