Re: Reaching Salvation: Post-Acer Part 8

[Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix]

OOC: Sage and him are still at the church? I'm amused by this, because Paul can sense the fight goign on at her house, and she can't.

(~)

Sage made a face, and then sighed. "I hope he will be alright..."

(~)

"What's this about Kriska?" Jayden asked as he made it to the two.

[quackers are yummylicious]

"Thanks," Kira smiled, pulling two pictures out of her bag. "I don't have frames for these..." she sighed.

The first was of a much younger Kira, holding onto the hand of a curly blonde haired woman, her fair skin greatly contrasting Kira's darker skin tone. On her other side was an older Asian woman, with an Asian man about the same age standing behind the three. Despite the surgical masks all of them wore on their face, a smile was evident in their eyes.

The second was of Kira, slightly older, playing with some other kids around her own age. They seemed to be grabbing the dirt surrounding the sidewalks and throwing it at each other in some sort of game. Again, they were all wearing surgical masks.

[Big Uri]

"...Surgical masks?" Luke asked carefully. He didn't want to upset her.

-----

"I'm Tom. From the tournament," Tom frowned, acknowledging Jayden with a nod.

[MrMissMrs Random]

Erika led Joey to a less busy area of the village. The woman turned when she found a sufficient place with her arms crossed under her chest. "...I heard about the fight you had with Nathan."

[Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix]

"What was with writing on my wall?" Jayden asked with a sigh, folding his arms.

[Book the Hero]

Joey just nodded. "...I'm a complete, and utter idiot..." He said.

[quackers are yummylicious]

"Huh? Oh, the air was pretty...bad... If you didn't wear one, y-you'd prob'ly get sick," Kira frowned, before realizing it probably wasn't a custom everywhere.

[Creation of Pokerus]

"Yeah," Paul nodded.

[Shadoe Mayari]

Kriska frowned and shook her head. "Sorry. I don't remember."

[Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix]

Sage had stopped covering her arm a little while ago. She sat down where Simon had been sitting.

(~)

Jayden frowned once he heard her voice. "Kriska?"

[Big Uri]

"I thought you might want to know, and it's the easiest way to contact you," Tom shrugged.

"Don't remember us or the tournament? It was five years ago, ring any bells?"

-------

"Makes sense, I'm from a city and most of that was enclosed because of pollution. That's why I get nervous in huge open spaces, we were warned against going outside as children," Luke explained.

[Book the Hero]

OOC: Dinner, brb.

[MrMissMrs Random]

"...I won't disagree." Erika replied. "Honestly, Joey. Really? I know he's done a lot but it doesn't mean you two can act like two roosters in a cock fight!"

[quackers are yummylicious]

Kira shrugged, before chuckling in a happy tone. "No one probably cared enough about us, I was outdoors a lot...not like there was much to see."

[Big Uri]

"Not a lot to see in a silver roof, either. The city isn't a good place to grow up in if you aren't rich," Luke replied, remembering his childhood.

[Shadoe Mayari]

"...No. Sorry," Kriska said.

[quackers are yummylicious]

"We weren't rich, but I had fun when I was little," Kira smiled slightly at the memories.

[Big Uri]

"How far back do you remember?" Tom asked next, wondering what Jayden thought.

-----

"That's good," Luke smiled, glad Kira had enjoyed her childhood after all she'd been through after it.

[Book the Hero]

"Erika he threatened the entire village, and in case you didn't notice, after the past few things he's done, the most of the younger kids, are still hiding in the homes." Joey said. "Erika, he goes too far."

[Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix]

Sage stood up, and knocked on Benji's door. "Uhm...excuse me, Miss Heidi, may I come in?"

[quackers are yummylicious]

Kira leaned on Luke's shoulder, falling silent for a second. "Let's hang these up," she said finally, smiling at him.

---

Heidi had been dozing off a bit, jolting awake. "Uh, go for it?" she said, not quite sure of her surroundings yet.

[Big Uri]

"O-okay," Luke replied, trying to avert his eyes from the photo with him and his two younger siblings.

[Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix]

Sage entered, and knelt down somewhere. "I just came in to check on you and him."

[Stabberz]

Nathan let a bolt of lightning explode off of the makeshift lance and completely destroy the bullet before carrying on towards Melaney. A split second later and he was behind Melaney with an arc of red lightning shooting her way.

[Shadoe Mayari]

"Um..." Kriska paused to think. "I remember the Storm. But then my next memory is waking up in an amusement park in Virginia with my arm gone," she said, shrugging.
