Welcome to Gaia! ::

Laying in a gorgeous garden, Shinsei same to. She rubbed her eyes and looked around. "Wow, this is so pretty. I didn't know the library had a garden this huge...or gorgeous!" She smiled and tried to stand up.

When she realized she'd never left the library, Shinsei doubled over. "W-w-where am I?!" She screamed, not realizing someone would probably come to find her.

Barely able to, Shinsei quickly stood up and rushed behind the nearest bush, just as guards came to look for the noise.

This ain't Tokyo. Could it be Osaka? Nope. Not Japan/Nihon at all. Shinsei shook her head as she saw what the guards were wearing.

Unfortunately, the girl got caught. The sentries were about to leave, when the girl sneezed. Both of them grabbed her arms and began to drag her.

"Hey! Leggoofme!!" Shinsei screeched, kicking them. One tried to cover her mouth with his hands, but she bit him. Through surprise, she was capable of getting away.

It's a good thing I'm nimble... Shinsei thought, scrambling over a wall. She ran until she reached a marketplace where she saw monks chanting, children playing, and everyday life for these people going on.

Toshiro had been walking around, taking in the scenery and trying to figure out where everyone was, when he heard "Hey! Leggoofme!!" He turned towards the voice, as he thought he recognized it. There, he saw Shinsei hurrying over the wall. "Shinsei!" He raised his arm, waving it in the hopes to get her attention as he continued to call her name.

With his hands stuffed deep into the pockets of his forest green pants, eighteen-year-old Yue Kis Tsao walked upon the roofs of the buildings in Hiken. Mismatched eyes, one gray-blue while the other blood red with a nasty scar cutting through the bottom of the lid, were constantly moving, surveying the busy streets below for anything that looked suspicious. How long had it been since he left home and gone to the capital of Ounen in search for the low-lives that had messed up his life? However long it was, it was long enough for him to have been unable to tell.

Besides, this is where all of the world's criminals end up...they have to be here, I know it. Yue thought to himself, a fist forming within the confines of his pocket. In the distance, he could hear a commotion by the city's guards, and swiftly he leaped lightly from rooftop to rooftop, following the disturbance. It looked like the guards had lost whomever they were trying to capture, but nearby he could make out two people easily from the crowd because of the weirdest clothes they were wearing.

Figuring something might happen around the two suspicious people, Yue stopped on the roof closest to the pair and crouched down, ready to follow and attack them if needed when the time arrived.

Toshiro chuckled a bit, nodding as he returned the hug. "Good to see I'm not the only one here. I have about as much of an idea as you do." He was just as perplexed as she was. He didn't know where they were. All he knew is that there had been a bright light, coming from a book of all places.

He looked about as well, watching the peculiar expressions on the surrounding people's faces. "You're right. Maybe we should get a set of clothing and change. Atleast then we will blend in. Then we can try to find the others."

[[:sighs::]]
Having over heard what they were saying, Chiyo wondered why the wouldn't; unless, perhaps, they weren't from here? Hastily, she ran up to the two, Ume with her, and grabbed both of their sholders, stopping them. "Please, this way. You shouldn't stay here in those clothes, not now," she said hurridly, motioning for the two to get on Ume. "I'll take you back to my village and give you some clothes," she said, nodding her head.

[[no, sonsko's brain, don't die on us!! xd ::throws some skittles at it:: o.O]]

Chiyo, making sure the two were on, took off the cloak dangled around her shoulders and tossed it over theirs. "Chiyo," she smiled, bowing slightly. "Just don't draw any attention by saying something and you should be fine," she said reasuringly as she started to lead Umi through the streets. She still carried the bags in her hands, as they passed a few people who stopped to talk to her. She tried not to spend to much time; she knew she should get these two back as soon as possible as to draw less attention.
