Goodness, I seem to have gotten lost. Just my luck.

[Stops a few feet in front of her.]

Martha?

[raisedheroes.livejournal.com]

[ooc: Sorry, my Martha doesn't know Rex. I base her on what's shown in canon.]

[She turns, hearing her name.]

Yes, hello? Do you know what's going on?

[bfeatherhunter.livejournal.com]

Ma'am, are you all right?

[Sure, he doesn't know her (although he does know of her, even if he doesn't realize that at the moment) but Pearson is certainly not the type of man to walk by and leave someone who is unarmed and obviously confused in a place that he really isn't sure of the relative safety of. Don't be intimidated by the crossbow he's got slung over one shoulder. That's for dealing with EVIL.]

[raisedheroes.livejournal.com]

[She looks up at the gorgeous young man and feels her heart go pitter pat. Of course, being old enough to be his mother means she gets to tease him.]

Well, you're quite the looker, aren't you? Are you hired to rescue fair maidens or is today just your lucky day?

[bfeatherhunter.livejournal.com]

[Is he embarrassed? Well, somewhat. But he can handle being teased with a certain amount of grace.]

Nobody hired me, I just consider it my duty to keep an eye out. Can never be too careful after all. And if I rescue a fair maiden or two, I suppose that's a bonus. [Now ain't he a charmer?]

Robert Pearson, at your service.

[raisedheroes.livejournal.com]

[She claps.]

Now aren't you just a sweet little thing. If only my boys could behave like you I'd never have any worries.

Robert Pearson? Well then, if you could help me find the orphanage I'd be most obliged. I have no idea how I ended up in this area.

[bfeatherhunter.livejournal.com]

[A slight frown creases his brow as he glances up and down the street. He's still getting used to this nonsense himself, having to explain it....]

Finding the orphanage may be... trickier than it should be. Saying that this place is strange is probably an understatement. Wherever you were before, you're certainly not there now. And around here.... [He shrugs.] I've found a few familiar landmarks, but nothing seems to be quite where it should be.

[raisedheroes.livejournal.com]

[She blinks.]

I've got quite a few hungry mouths to keep fed so if you're trying to tell me I've been kidnapped then I'm not at all pleased.

[bfeatherhunter.livejournal.com]

Trust me, I'm not thrilled either. I have a few of my own back home that I'm worried about. [Exceptionally worried. Bolger is not the best role model in the world.] All I know is what I've been told. That this is some strange place that pulls people in from different worlds and times, as long as they're connected to the game Duel Monsters somehow. I don't pretend to understand it or know who's behind it if anyone even is, and I can't say I like it, all I know for sure is that it seems to be the truth.

[raisedheroes.livejournal.com]

[She listens, then sighs.]

That won't do at all. I need to get back to the, somehow. Has this place been explored in full? Maybe there's a way out.

[bfeatherhunter.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure. If anyone has found a way out, they certainly haven't come back to tell anyone else about it. At the moment I'm looking for decent shelter first, then I'll think about doing some exploring.

[raisedheroes.livejournal.com]

Mind if I accompany you, my strapping young saviour?

[bfeatherhunter.livejournal.com]

[He chuckles slightly at that.] Of course. I couldn't in good conscience leave a lovely lady to whatever wolves there might be out here.

[raisedheroes.livejournal.com]

Oh, hush. You wouldn't want anyone to overhear you say that. I doubt I need much advertising!

[She's keeping this one. For sure.]

O.O (Flings Maha over to the Awesome one!) Corrected...

[egyptianmage.livejournal.com]

Set's chibi 8 year old self in a tree... He was bored, but he's looking down and spied you from above.

/Maha! New person!/ And he's climbing down the tree, while Maha, equally eight years old, at the bottom of said tree looks up from his book.

The pair are now walking over to you, from their hiding spot.

I tend to RP in script format, so I don't really want to change my style. Is that okay?

[raisedheroes.livejournal.com]

[And spotting the two eight year old approaching, she smiles.]

Well look what the cat dragged in. Seems I'm going to find kids no matter where I am. What are your names?

I aim to please! ... ok my aim is TERRIBLE... but I try!

[egyptianmage.livejournal.com]

"Ah, I'm Mahaado, and this is Set..." Mahaado replied, walking towards the new person. She looked rather responsible... say maybe Yuu would like her?

Set's learned enough to wave a greeting when he heard his name spoken.

"Excuse me for asking, but are you new to this island?" Mahaado asked.

(OOC: In case you're REALLY pine scented fresh new to these two. Set is an illusion created by Mahaado. So unlike the normal rule of understanding, he doesn't. Because he's not real on any level and the language rule doesn't apply to him. And yes he's implied mentally that he doesn't think a lot of people here are responsible.)

[raisedheroes.livejournal.com]

[She nods to the two of them.]

I think so. This looks like my home, Satellite... but it'd far too different.

[egyptianmage.livejournal.com]

"Ah, well if you would like, I could try to explain some of it... well.." Mahaado grew thoughtful, then shrugged. "I can try to help you, if that is acceptable."

Set took this as a chance to just... study the strange part of the island, he rarely comes here.

couldn't resist

[immota]

[ She can't believe she made it out. Somehow. Though that's not exactly comforting, considering she has no idea where she is now. It looks like Satellite, but everything's all wrong. And why is Martha here? ]

... Martha?

[raisedheroes.livejournal.com]

[Martha blinks. Was that Yuusei? Yes. Yes it was.]

Now where did you come from! I haven't seen in you a while!

You'd think you'd have time to visit the woman who raised you but you only show up when I'm lost? Goodness!

my internet died, sorry!

[immota]

I...

[ Actually, she doesn't know how to answer that, because where hasn't she been at this point? And how much time has passed since she was last at home? ]

I'm really sorry, Martha. I've been-- it's complicated. [ And the last place? Awkward. ]

... what's going on?

No worries. :)

[raisedheroes.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm not so sure myself. One moment I was in the kitchen making some dinner for the children, the next I find myself here.

[immota]

... I don't think this Satellite at all. It's... not right. [ Which is an understatement, really. Not to mention, most of Satellite had been restored last she checked. Another parallel universe, then? ]

[ Protective mode, on. ] Let's get out of the street first.

[raisedheroes.livejournal.com]

[She nods, understanding completely.]

Alright.

[immota]

[ She takes a second to survey their surroundings and get a rough idea of where they'd be if this place was indeed Satellite-- if it's anything close, there should be an apartment complex down the way with light and water still, which will be sufficient for a temporary place to stay until they figure something out. Most of the buildings around them don't look very much like they can support life.]

There might be something close by we can use. [ She turns to Martha. ] This way. [ Unless she has any objections, Yuusei will lead them elsewhere. ]

[raisedheroes.livejournal.com]

[Martha hasn't even realized you're a female Yuusei yet, let alone where on Earth she's ended up, so she follows.]

[immota]

[ MAGICAL TIME-WARP THEN because. Walking? Anyway, Yuusei leads the way towards an unassuming brick building that happens to not be entirely broken and boarded-up. Though one of the front doors is slightly off its hinges, but that's easily fixed. Hopefully the water and heat work in this version. Yuusei peers inside, listens for the movement of people or rats or otherwise, and - satisfied - moves the door aside as best she can so they can get inside. ]

... I guess it's not that different here. [ She gently braces the door against the wall, making a mental note to look at it later if they end up staying. ]

[raisedheroes.livejournal.com]

[She looks about.]

Lord in Heaven this is such a dreary place... this is the exact reason I take in the children I do.

[immota]

[ Yuusei agrees with a small hum. It was interesting back when she and Crow had scoped it out ages ago, but no place to live for very long without some serious work, and it in no way compared to the relative comforts of home. By way of furniture and appliances, it has basic necessities, which is novel in itself, but everything is covered in a rather impressive layer of grime. When she tests the sink, the plumbing groans, sputters to life-- the water that comes out is more than a bit rusty at first, but eventually clears up. ]

... Hopefully we won't be here long. [ Until they find something better or end up back home? Anyone's guess at this point. She dusts off a in-fairly-good-condition kitchen chair so Martha can sit, and leans against the counter, frowning. ] But it's possible we might.

[raisedheroes.livejournal.com]

[She's... actually surprised. Usually, run down places left abandoned for as long as this one seems to have been would have sludge for water... the fact it's even still having water delivered despite no one being here to maintain the bills or the systems is a miracle in and of itself.]

A little elbow grease and this would be a fine place to live!

[immota]

[ She nods, hoping all her usual haunts for tools and parts have managed to duplicate themselves in this world too. That would make this go a lot quicker. ] Yeah, it's definitely fixable. Crow thought the place had been used on and off. There's not much mold, so... maybe.

[ She pauses for a bit, and switches gears. An explanation of something or other probably needs to happen here. ]

... Martha. I think I know what happened. To bring you here, I mean.

[raisedheroes.livejournal.com]

Feel free to let me know, Yuusei.

[academiaruka.livejournal.com]

Martha-san?

[Thank goodness a familiar face.]

[raisedheroes.livejournal.com]

[She blinks. Who was this one, then?]

Yes, hello?

My, such a young girl! Whatever are you doing in a place like this?

[academiaruka.livejournal.com]

I'm.. really not sure. You're one of the first familiar faces I've talked to. [looks around]
