((Yeah, I know, but I've had people question me before, so I just felt like getting it out in the open.))
As Aero walked the paths of the park, she found herself getting bored with the same old scenery. Deciding that it was time for a change in pace, she quickly darted off the regular path and into the woods, pushing past a few ferns and thorn bushes. This was better. Aero had always enjoyed a bit of adventure and following an uncharted path, so she liked doing this kind of thing. Continuing with her movement through the trees, she soon became lost in thought again. She wondered what the kids in class were learning about today and if it was something she didn't know, before her thoughts drifted off to her birthday celebration for later that night. Aero wondered what they were going to do, seeing as the family was always somewhat tight for money. Shrugging the thoughts off, she focused again just in time to stop herself from running into a tall blond boy and an interesting looking girl. "Oh...I'm sorry," she said, clearly embarrased by her own forgetfullness.

Laila was frowning in thought at the speech of the others when who but Jessica fell and stumbled into the scene. Laila looked at her for a second bewildered. Was this girl always such a klutz?
"You quite like falling don't you?" She asked, not too unkindly. Laila lifted her headup to look at them all properly, and found herself catching Aaron's eye. For the second time that day she felt someones past being blocked by a barrier that she couldn't seem to break through. Amnesia? She wasn't so sure, and she didn't like the feeling of not knowing.
All three were glaring at her and Jessica suspiciously, and Laila's eyes widened as she recognised the Madison as the girl she couldn't read the past of earlier. The tension was painful, she she gave a small smile.
"I'm sorry if we scared you. We just wanted to come and find you. You sure did save us back there. I don't know what we would have done without." She smiled again, and there was another long awkward pause. "I'm Meg by the way." She said lying again.
I won't know my own identity by the end of the day... She thought sadly.

Madison was about to answer when one of the girls from before fell into the clearing. She was going to help her up, but then she spotted the other girl not to far off. 'Had she been listening?' Madison wondered, sensing the annoyance in the girl. She studdied her till yet again, another person entered the clearing as well. "Okay, is this a popular spot?" she asked sarcastically, thankful for the people but a bit annoyed. What had been three people just turned into six in less than thirty seconds. "I'm Madison. And everyone else is?" she asked, glancing at Chase. She already knew his name, but she hoped he would still say it for everyone elses benefit.

Aaron took in Meg's uncertain attempt to breach to hostility and Madison's sarcastic answer and felt suddenly guilty; Meg was just a kid, and they were treating her like she was some sort of stalker intruding on a private conversation. After all, what had they been saying that he cared about anyone overhearing? Nothing whatsoever. Sure, listening in was pretty impolite, but it wasn't a sufficient reason to snap at her. He met the girl's dark eyes with his own again and managed a fairly convincing, if small, smile. "Aaron," he supplied.

"I'm Chase." He gave his name for the newcomers. He looked around at the small crowd. He was looking forward to getting the names of all of these people. He had a feeling he'd be meeting them again. He calmed himself down. Just because their intentions were bad doesn't nessicarily mean they're bad right? 'Maybe I'm being paranoid' He smiled, less nervous now, at the three people he didn't know. "It's of you all to drop in." He was playfully grinning by the end of his sentence.

Aero hesitated for a moment at the sight of the two girls on the other side of the clearing, noticing but choosing to ignore the sarcasim of the girl in front of her. Stepping to the side of the two in front of her, she looked around at them, before bowing slightly. The three next to her seemed rather cautious around the other two girls and Aero wondered what that was about, but she kept quiet because she just didn't like to intrude on matters that had nothing to do with her. "Aero," she said quietly, "And again, sorry for intruding. I was just trying to find a new path."

"Don't worry about it Aero." Chase tried to convince the girl no one was disturbed by her coming, "You're not really intruding on anything." He felt his eyes flash as he subconciously checked her objectives. He wasn't surprised when she didn't turn out to be anything abnormally corrupt.

Laila gave Aaron an odd look, and a smile.
"Umm... Nice to meet you?" She offered, as the boy made eye contact with her again. She looked around at all the people, and frowned at how so many people seem to have appeared.
"Wow, at this rate with the amount of people appearing, we have we could have a crazy German house party."
She wished she could take a look at their pasts, but she didn't have enough time. And she was scared of finding others without clear pasts. Again with the fog. It wasn't a pleasant experience.

Aaron shifted fractionally, suddenly very uncomfortable; there was suddenly far too many people, and it made him feel slightly claustrophobic. At the same time, he wanted to stay with Madison, at least long enough to figure out- That was, if there were two people in the same part with amnesia, that would be a bit of a coincidence, wouldn't it? Perhaps their situations were unconnected, but he wanted to know for sure.

Jessica dusted herself off with a wide smile.
"I'm Jessica."
She introduced herself quickly.
"And once again, thanks so much. I don't know what would have happened if y'all weren't there."
She had somewhat of a light Texan accent mixed with something else. It was kind of hard to tell. Her voice was soft and gentle with a convincing expression.
"What does he know...?" Chase seemed to be very perceptive. "But what exactly is he?" Why is he so suspicious about the two of them? This character seemed to appeal a lot more to her now.

((Bugger. Sorry about that delay.))
Cari drifted through the streets. She didn't know where she was going, but she'd found that she didn't much care. She took in everything around her like a video camera, mechanically recording every detail, to be used in making - what?
Cari didn't have an answer.
A few thumps and an "Oh, dear!" came from ahead of her. Cari glanced up to see a middle-aged woman struggling to pick up the packages that had fallen from her overstuffed grocery bag. A child of about five ran around her, apparently oblivious to her need for help.
The mother was stretching to reach a packet of chips when Cari scooped it up and handed it back to her. "Here," she said.
"Thank you," the mother said, smiling in gratitude. She shifted her bag and Cari realized that the woman was at least five months pregnant. "It gets a little hard to handle sometimes."
The walk light came on and the mother started to cross the street. Her son suddenly decided to run straight across and cut in front of his mother. She stumbled, tipped, started to fall-
-and Cari caught her. She steadied the woman while she got her balance back and they crossed together.
The mother thanked her profusely when they reached the other side. "I don't know what I would have done without you," she told Cari, catching her son by the arm. "Thank you so much."
Cari nodded and a smile crossed her face.
As she watched the woman walk away, Cari felt a lightness on her shoulders. Not as if a burden had been lifted, but as if some part of it had been taken off.
It might not hurt, she decided, to help people. If I have the opportunity.
Turning, she continued to wander the streets.
((... I feel like making a comet come down and destroy half of New York City. XD You guys need something to get away from the awkwardness...))

Aidrious left her house for another day of wandering through the streets.
She was always in a confused state but decided to pay no mind
to it on this day. She walked toward a group of people and
sat at a bench close by. She pulled out a pen and paper and
started drawing one of the people. She wasn't sure of the name
yet, but she was certain that she would hear it while drawing the
beautiful face of this innocent looking girl. < >

Aidrious opens her eyes and realizes with a jolt that she is still on the bench.
She tries not to panic when she doesn't see or feel her
notebook next to her. She looks around and sees them
on the ground under her.
She picks them up and looks to find that there is no
one around her and that it's getting dark.
Leaving the bench, with a crick in her back,
she walks to the nearest Japanese restaurant and eats some curry.
She walks out after eating all that she can and goes home.
