Getting information from the magic type people at the infirmary was impossible. His voice got drowned out by the masses of people yelling over each other, dealing with this emergency or that critical condition.
He didn't blame them, he knew they had work to do, but the little information he did get out of them had left him more confused then before.
So after a few days, he made up his mind to corner one of these alien wizard sushi people and make them give him some information. But without being turned into a frog, if possible.
He got his chance when he saw Albireo moving through the temple on her own, toothbrushes in hand. He made a beeline to her.
"Hey you! I-"
As he started to use his demanding voice, the image of him sporting pig ears appeared in his head, and he decided to change his tone.
"I... Can I talk to you? If you're not too busy, I mean..."

Albireo glanced over at the civilian and blinked.
Huh. Razors. She should have brought razors so the men could shave...clearly, this one needed it. And very badly.
She wondered what he wanted and then reached into her bag, pulling out a tooth brush and small travel tube of toothpaste.
"Here you are, Sir...is this what you were after? People are getting grumpy without brushing their teeth..."
The senshi gave a little laugh, though looked very tired, even her hair loops seemed to be drooping with exhaustion.

Eric looked at the tooth brush dumbfounded.
"Well, eh... Thank you, I guess. I didn't have one of these here, but I needed one. But no, thats not what I wanted to talk to you about. I have questions and I think I deserve some answers."

The Senshi nodded.
"Well, Sir. I will answer them to the best of my ability, but...I'm not very experienced with situations like this, I'm afraid...But, ask away."
Worst came to worse she could always try to find the answer then get back to him, but she would try. It was her duty as a Senshi.
Her strange, difficult duty...

"First of all"
He said, more relaxed since it looked like she was going to co operated with him.
"You can call me Eric, the sir thing really throws me off kilter. Now, I need to know for certain, cause its never been made all that clear to me. Where are we?"

Phew. A name.
The Senshi nodded. "All right, Eric. My name is Sailor Albireo, Senshi of Swans. And as to where we are...We're at the Zodaic's base...their home, from what I've gathered, I'm not sure though. I haven't been told much."
It was the best she could give, the most honest answer she could give.
Better than just saying what was really on her mind. Something along the lines of, We're in space, nitwit.
But that wouldn't have been very nice.

He wasn't even going to touch the Sushi of swans thing, the whole concept of uncooked bird as a title was a completely different conversation.
"Right, ok, but where is that? They've been talking about space and aliens, magic and teleportation. I don't know what to think anymore. Are we on earth? Somewere near destiny city maybe? Or are we far away from there?"

She sighed, heavily.
She should have just gone with the dummed down response.
"No, Eric. We're in Space. That's why there are so many stars around us. We haven't...well, you haven't been on earth in days, and the Zodiacs--the Senshi who have their castles here--they can't teleport you civilians home, and we still don't know why."
The Senshi gave another sigh. "I'm sorry I can't explain anymore than that."

"Ah."
He frowned.
"How are we breathing though? Theres not supposed to be air in space, but this building doesn't seem airtight."

"Well,"
Albireo just shrugged. "Honestly, I don't know. Magic, I guess. There is a rainbow road connecting this place. But, There's also Space Whales, and other things. How is that explained?"
She shook her head. "I don't know, honestly. I'm new at this whole Senshi thing, and I don't know. I'm tired, and I shouldn't have bothered coming here. All you civilians...I want to help, but I don't know anything. Sorry."

Eric sighed.
"Right. Sorry to put you on the spot its just... Hey. I have a question. You said you can't get the civilians back to earth, but you can get back there yourself? Could you get me my guitar?"

His guitar? Ugh. Well...
"Yeah. I'm sure I could. Why? Where is it?"
That would mean she could go home, see Merric, then she would have to come back...but that wouldn't be too horrible...It wasn't terrible up here. Besides. the poor civilians needed her.
"Yeah. I know I can get it."

Eric smiled. "Thanks, Id just feel better having it, and I might be able to raise spirits around here. Here." He reached into his pocket and pulled out a reciept for a hamburger. On the back he scribbled the following note. Quote: Steve- This lass is a friend, give her my guitar please. Eric P.S. Kidnapped and in space, let mum know. "I've been crashing with a friend named Steve, over on Martin luther king road. The Avalon Apartments, room 601 if I remember correctly. Give him this, he should give you the guitar." He handed her the note, still smiling. "Thank you so much for this, it means the world to me."

"Of course, of course. I'll be sure to find you when I have it. Do you have any other questions, Eric?"
She took the paper and folded it neatly, slipping it into her glove.
"Or was that all you needed to know?"
Steve, huh? Well, whatever. She was a Senshi. She would do what she had to.

He bit his lip.
"I guess. You all didn't inform the police or military yet, did you? I mean, if you can just pop back and forth, it might be worth telling somebody that were here."
