Edgeworth has found Yotsuba..
Characters: Yotsuba Koiwai, Edgeworth, and you!
Setting: Floor 24. Backdated to the 28th.
Format: We're starting in prose, but we'll match you!
Summary: After meeting Yotsuba, Edgeworth, annoyed that no one was looking after Yotsuba for quite a long time starts looking for her friends and anyone he knows that can take care of her. However, Yotsuba tends to run off when things catch her eye, which leads the pair to a monster.
Warnings: Child death if you're not quick enough and Edgeworth's scoldings if you happen to be someone that's met Yotsuba before.
Most people would not really see Edgeworth as the type to hang around with small children. Neither would Edgeworth, really.
Nevertheless, one thing that the prosecutor was not going to turn a blind eye to was a child wandering around the tower without adult supervision when there were monsters about. Therefore, when he discovered that five year-old Yotsuba appeared to have nobody looking after her, he decided to take the matter into his own hands – and that meant taking her around Floors 1-4, finding some of the friends she has already made in the tower – and giving them a good talking-to (because this child was on her own and exposed to danger and how irresponsible can people be?).
Holding the child by the hand so that he could not lose sight of her, he went through the floors, hoping to find someone that she would recognise. Perhaps, he would even run into Maya or the two Lancers or anyone else he has met who knew of the little girl’s friends.
Yotsuba, meanwhile, would happily go along with Edgeworth, not really understanding why the man was so annoyed, but, since this was pretty fun, she would wander around with him, sing sometimes, and mess up the prosecutors name by calling him Edgeworm (which the prosecutor did not like but let slide as Yotsuba was a child and probably did not mispronounce his name intentionally). However, she would get his name correct the second time she spoke it.
Everything was going well....until the two of them were busy making their way from the third to the fourth floor and spotted one of those little prize pod monsters floating on the stairway.
While the prize pod was not at all dangerous, Edgeworth did not know that since it was the first time he had seen one. In normal circumstances, he would avoid it. However, Yotsuba, who loved new things as long as they didn’t scare her, quickly let go of Edgeworth’s hand and began to chase after the monsters, hoping to get a proper look at them.
Seeing (in horror) the small child scuttle upstairs, Edgeworth tried to follow her immediately. “W-wait, Yotsuba! What are you doing?! Get back here!”
“I want to get a better look at that thing! Yotsuba will be back in a moment-” Yotsuba yelled to Edgeworth as she ran, but when she got on the twenty-fourth floor, the prize pod monster was quickly forgotten.
She found herself at the other side of the room, with a large, shadowy monster staring her down. And it was hungry.
Edgeworth, meanwhile, had tried his best to keep up with her. He was not stupid - he took everyone else’s warnings about the other floors very seriously and therefore had yet to visit most of them himself (although he was considering going to them with a few other people so he could keep up with what was going on in this accursed tower). Unfortunately, a tiny little girl was now putting herself in danger...
“Oh my god...!”
The prosecutor was right next to the stairs when he finally found the girl. Horrified, his eyes widened when saw that monster staring over Yotsuba. If Yotsuba did not run away from it or if he did not do something, there was going to be one very dead little girl in that room.
Knowing that he could not just stand there, Edgeworth called out to the child in a commanding voice. “Yotsuba! Come over here right now!”
Care to help them out, anyone?
[[ooc: Your post will have both Yotsuba and Edgeworth-frilliance-responding to it, so look forward to that!]]

When Yotsuba was put down and given an introduction, she smiled. So this wasn't a bad person!
"I'm Yotsuba Koiwai! Th..thank you for helping! What's a magical girl?" Sadly, this was something Yotsuba had not encountered her her short life. She had loved animals more than she had loved anime. Not that she had even been exposed to it.
Hi I'm late!
He did not notice Saki transforming on the stairs. However, the magical girl's cry caught his attention and he nearly ducked when he saw some...whatever that electrical thing was....fly towards, no, over his head, and head straight towards the monster. Before he knew it, someone was dashing towards Yotsuba, picking her up and carrying her straight back. It was only when Saki reached the stairs and put Yotsuba down that he managed to get a proper look at the older girl and realise that he had seen her somewhere. Now was not a good moment to try and dwell on that, though. Now he had to get Yotsuba out of here.
Trying to take the smaller child’s hand, he faced Saki. “Very well. Be careful” He did not have a choice, really. Whether the older girl would survive, he did not know but she was clearly more capable of handling it than he was. Any fool could see that. Was it possible for him to get help?
If the prosecutor successfully grabbed Yotsuba's hand, he then tried to drag her up the stairs to the next floor. No matter what happened, he had to get her to safety.
dreamwidth, please send me notifs orz
"It's nice to meet you, Yotsuba-chan. Magical girls are here to help people that are in trouble. It's our job to fight monsters, so that they don't hurt anyone. You don't have to worry about me, because I'll be just fine. What's most important right now is that you go with your friend, okay? I want to make sure that you're not hurt, and there's not a safe place here for you to get checked out. I'll make sure to check on both of you later."
She nodded to Edgeworth as she stood up. "Don't worry. I'll be fine, and I'll touch base with both of you upstairs once I've taken care of this thing. It shouldn't be too long. Be safe!"
With a last nod to both of them, she ran back, reaching for the riding crop at her hip. She fully intended to buy them some time by sending lightning down its length and straight towards the monster's head, establishing herself as the target.
I'm sorry to hear that happened..but better late then never!
"Okay! I'll go with Edgeworth so that you can do your job properly! Good luck!~"
After all, Daddy didn't like it when Yotsuba bothered him too much when he was working, so she understood. However, Yotsuba would be asking Saki later if she could become a magical girl when she was older.
With that, Yotsuba would willingly follow Edgeworth upstairs, away from the monster and towards safety.
It's okay. I'm the one late now. XD
The prosecutor was quite taken aback when he suddenly found himself in a flower meadow. Then he remembered that Diarmuid had told him that there was a meadow in the tower which was perfectly safe. This fitted in with the fact that the girl who had just saved Yotsuba had told them that this floor was not dangerous.
Edgeworth let go of Yotsuba's hand as he tried to catch his breath from the shock of that monster and all that chasing Yotsuba up all those floors before then.
Still, before he could relax, Edgeworth had to make sure of one thing. "Are you all right, Yotsuba?" Now might be a good time for a lecture.
