Luna Luminesca  The Ice Witch - The White Wolf of the North
"Umm...I had a...fur coat! But I guess I must have misplaced it..."
That explaination was sounding a little weak even to her. Luna just hope that the two girls from Shibusen wouldn't try to read into what she said too much.
"Yeah you misplace so many things when you're onn the road! I-I didn't even realize I didn't have it on! Well, I guess I'd better get going...Sorry for being such a bother to you both..."
Luna needed to get away from these two before she said something else to give herself away. She was much better at stealth in her wolf form, but a white wolf would have stood out in this urban setting, not to mention the terrain around the city was desert, not really a proper setting for that kind of animal. Her nervous personality always seemed to hamper her when she was speaking. For now she had to get far away from these two, and then figure out a way to get into and out of Shibusen alive.

Me name's Will Grady..... Will wasn't usually so trusting of a stranger's words, but this stranger had a guitar and a love of music. That changed everything in Will's mind.
She bought it whole-heartedly.
"Awh, i's a'raight! A misplaced all o' me luggage somewhar oout 'ere!" she chuckled, not even realizing she'd just let-slip what she'd earlier been trying to avoid.
"Ye've been noo bot'ar. I's been a pleashar talken wit' ye!"
It looked like this girl was trying to leave, so Will gave her a small wave goodbye. .....can ye point me to a pub?

Luna Luminesca The Ice Witch - The White Wolf of the North
"It's been a pleasure speaking to the both of you too. Bye!"
In her mind, Luna was doing a victory dance, celebrating her survival in this encounter with a weapon/meister pair from Shibusen. On the outside, however, she walked calmly, not alerting the two to the joy she felt being able to walk away from their meeting. She kept walking until she turned a corner and was no longer within the line of sight of the two girls. She leaned up against the nearest building, breathing a sigh of relief. She still couldn't get over the fact that she was alive. Then again, those witch-slayers were nothing more than children, if they were a fully trained, fully grown team, she wouldn't have been able to fool them most likely. They didn't seem like bad people at all, but she was sure she would have seen a whole different side of the two if they knew what she was.
Now she just needed to find an actual place to sleep and wait for the morning, when her mission would be to *sudder* infiltrate Shibusen. She wished she knew where the bell witch was right that moment, so she could get to her in the dead of night instead of trying to sneak into a place where everybody there would want to kill her. Just as she began to think about it, she got a wiff of a distinct smell in the air. It wasn't something that any normal person would be able to smell, this was thanks to her witch/wolf senses. Among the resy of the various strange smells around her, she picked up a scent...something similar to a pig.
Huh? Why would they keep pigs around here? Wait a second...wasn't the Bell Witch supposed to be a pig? Could...that be her nearby? Could I really be that lucky?
If this truly was the witch she was looking for, then she would be forever greatful to whatever forces had led her to that spot. Luna looked around, making sure there were no people around her that could spot her. The search would go much quicker if she turned into her wolf form, but she couldn't let anyone spot her changing.

Luna Luminesca  The Ice Witch - The White Wolf of the North
Luna knew that in her wold form, she would definiely need to stay out of sight. Even without thinking she was a witch, people would still think she was a dangrous animal and try to capture or kill her before she did any harm. So she needed to stay hidden, which wasn't easy. Her white fur had the tendency to shimmer when reflecting the moon's light, something that made sticking to the shadows hard. Things were much easier in the snow-covered lands where she resided.
Feeling that staying on the streets would be too risky, she decided to stay on the rooftops. She was a much smaller wolf than her mother was, so she could manage climbing up to and remaining silent on the roofs without much problem. This was much easier than the icy terrain she usually navigated.
Luna continued following her nose, travelling the rooftops until she came to one house. She was sure it was the right one, the pig smell was definitely giving it away. It was also making her a bit hungry, but that would have to wait until later. She peered through the window and saw a girl sleeping soundly. This seemed like the best entrance, and she should have no problems as long as she remained quiet. Jumping into a tree near the window, she managed to get it open wide enough to fit through.
As she jumped into the room, she couldn't have planned for how close the window was to the desk. Luna was able to land without making much noise, but she bumped into the desk. Crash!!The desk lamp tipped over and shattered against the floor. Luna was shaken my the noise, quickly hiding as far back under the desk as possible. The last thing she wanted was to be caught now.

Mini Mary Worth
"The Bell Witch" 
"Once upon a time..."
Unfortunately, no one heard Luna, but a sound of yelling and screeching could be heard through the other room.
"CLYDE! I TOLD YOU NOT TO PEEK! YA PERVERT!"
"I"M OVER HERE WOMAN! EVEN IF I WANTED TO PEEK, I'VE ALREADY SEEN YOU NEKKID BEFORE!"
-CRASH-
"OWWWW!!"
In the room slept Mini Mary Worth, all curled up and huddled against her blankets and pillows like a baby in her crib.
Her room looked like something out of a fairytale. All pink and red and comfy like a storybook's pages.
She then yawned and turned over on her side as she mumbled something about 'mirrors' and 'sunlight' and let out a slight moan as she cuddled up more to her pillows.
She had found... The Bell Witch.
A mere child.
"... There lived a Wicked Queen in her tower."

Luna Luminesca The Ice Witch - The White Wolf of the North
...There sure are a lot of strange people in this city...
Luna counted herself lucky. Loud noises must have been the norm around here, so she didn't have to worry too much about making sound. However, just to be sure, she still crept around silently. As she looked around, she saw that the room looked almost like it was from a storybook. She crept towards the bed and looked at the little girl sleeping there.
That's her? That's the Bell Witch? She doesn't look like anything more than a regular child. And I can't feel any magical energy, even this close to her. Maybe she lost her powers, or Shibusen stripped them from her? Anyway, having a house here in death city...and school supplies...it really does look like she attends Shibusen. Which means those two must be her weapons...
Luna wanted to make sure her job was done correctly; she didn't want to suffer Anemone's wrath. She wasn't nearly as resistant as Rozen. She knew she could spy on the other two for a while, try to figure out what kind of weapons they were or how strong they were, but the only real way to make sure they transformed and used their powers was if they used them against her, and that wasn't something she wanted to do. No, the information she had now was good enough, hopefully. Still, she couldn't understand why a witch would become one of those witch-hunters...
Luna made her way back to the window and jumped out of it, landing gracefully. Now all she had to do was get out of there and back to the sanctuary. She stayed in her wolf form, not really caring if anyone saw her now. It was late and she was fast in this form, if anyone did see her, their either write her off as a dream or, if they did try to catch her, wouldn't be able too stop her before she left anyway.
...I wonder what Anemone wants with the Bell Witch anyway? Ehh...I suppose I should just do what I'm ordered to and not ask questions, especially when it comes to Anemone...

"Hmm, alright," Cypress hummed as she watched Luna leave in a bit of an awkward rush.
'What a shame. I would've asked her to stay for dinner...'
"Ah, right," she jumped, coming back to Earth for real this time, "It's actually right over here. I'll get the door," she replied, quickly trotting off in the direction of one of the numerous apartments and townhomes on the street.
"Please take your shoes off when you go in, alright?"
((Post in the apartment~))

Luna Luminesca The Ice Witch - The White Wolf of the North
Luna sighed as she grew ever nearer to Death City. She had hoped she would never have to go there again, but then she ended up having to go back so soon... At least, this time, Rozen was with her.
"I really don't like the idea of sneaking into Death City and kidnapping someone who's trained to kill me. But, I guess we really don't have any choice..."
Luna looked around for the path that she had taken to leave the city. Luckily for her, she had a good memory. It wouldn't be a problem for her to follow that path backwards, and since she knew it, it would be easier for her to make sure she was not spotted. The only real problem was Rozen... An over 7 foot tall roach-lady was sure to warrant some attention, even if it was the dead of night. She doubted even the weirdos that lived in the city would see her and immediately think she was a witch or something else strange that needed to be squashed.
"Okay, Rozen, I know how to get to where the Bell Witch is. I can turn into my wolf form and probably get back to her with no problems. But...umm...you're kind of...visible... Is there any way you could become a little less conspicuous? Or do you have some kind of other plan?"

 WITCH ROZEN
"Eep!" Rozen jolted at Luna's sudden comment. She really wasn't used to people talking to her in a non-violent manner. It wasn't helping that she was so obviously a witch and didn't even know Soul Protect in order to stave off the inevitable Shibu-kids Squadron that would jump them momentarily.
Failure was the only option. Death. Failure. More death. Pain and suffering...
...Anemone had really done a number on her psyche.
"I can hide the other set of arms..." Rozen lamely offered. She pulled the brim of her hat down to cover her nervous gaze; she hadn't even bothered to change her witch costume, "But I can't really do anything about the height, so it's moot point... ah, I'm sorry..!" she jumped a little at the sight of a moving shadow. Nope, just a cat. Maybe.
Rozen wanted to cry.
"I-I'm pretty sure Wit--Master sent me to be a distraction. Tank the enemy so that they focus on attacking me and not you, so..." it was killing her to say this, but it was for the best, "Let me do the dangerous stuff, okay..? If you think we're going to run into trouble... just... just send me..."
Rozen's antennae swung in the breeze and she froze. If there was one thing nice about her animal, it was the antennae. Too bad they hurt like a b***h when they were pulled. (Note to self: NEVER tell Anemone.) Regardless, her gaze hardened as she looked nowhere in particular.
"...You know where the Bell Witch is, yes..? At least where she should be, right? We haven't got much time."
There was something out there... and it wasn't a cat.

Will went running around looking in and under every dumpster in the city. so far-
nothing.
"FECKIN 'ATE CITIES!!! Specially one t'at 'ave some freakish sun smailin doown on ye all bloody day long!" she exclaimed as she kicked the dumpster she was just digging through- and immediately regretting it! She'd forgotten to put her shoes back on and kicking metal with a bare foot was not her best idea! "A coulda swore me extra cash was raight in me bra, wa'nt it?" she said as she tugged at her sportsbra-like shirt. "Tch. Damn it all ta 'ell!" she grumbled as she looked around for another dumpster.

WITCH ROZEN
For the approximately sixtieth time that evening, Rozen nearly jumped out of her exoskeleton skin. Human approaching! What's worse, it had a decent-sized wavelength, meaning someone who at least had some fighting experience.
Not good, not good, not goo-ah? There was only one. Maybe there was time to get out of there before anyone noticed... She shot Luna an urgent look and made to drag her off. Run!

Will ran around and spotted someone around the next corner- two someones!
One she recognized! "OI! YOOU!" she called out, running up to them.
"'EY! 'EY! 'EY! I GOT SUMT'IN TE ASK YE!" skiding to a stop in front of them.
''ave ei'er o' ye seen a dumpster with a big 'WG' written in blood on t'e saide?" she asked desperately, her arms waving around in big gestures to illustrate her heavily accented words.
....that was how she made sure her belongings were safe?

WITCH ROZEN
Rozen blinked down at the girl. She just barely came up to her chest.
The witch wasn't entirely sure what she should've been more surprised over. The question, that she didn't find anything strange about her appearance, or that she wrote her (assumed) initials on her luggage in blood.
The weirdness overload was giving her a headache.
"Eeuhh... no... can you tell me what's in it..?" Eh, if she wasn't attacking; may as well help. Her antennae were pretty good at tracking stuff. (Though Anemone usually just used the to find the bodies of the other witch-lackies that hadn't succeeded in their missions...)
