The new Deadman..

[sunflowerfairy]

Characters: Yotsuba Koiwai and you!~
Setting: Around the Tower's steps.
Format: Starting in prose, but I'll match you.
Summary: After unknowingly eating some contaminated food on the eleventh, Yotsuba gains some strange powers, and is rather..curious about them, so she starts to search for answers.
Warnings: Yotuba will get killed by Wretched Egg, so look out for that. And Yotsuba can control her blood, so..people who don't like that should probably avoid this post.

Yotsuba dimly remembered that dinner on the eleventh had tasted odd, but since it wasn't yucky, not many people payed to much attention to it, chalking it up to the Administrators again, and since it wasn't bitter, no one thought it was poisoned. She didn't give it much thought either, since she wasn't harmed. After all, she was a little girl with much more to do and much more to keep her occupied.

However, when Yotsuba woke up on the thirteenth, she noticed that she wasn't feeling..right. Not bad, just not right. Trying to think of what wasn't right, she got hopped out of bed and started to walk through the dorm floors. When she heard a loud noise from below-probably someone fighting or a newcomer-she jumped, surprised..and cried a little in pain. Turning her head around, she saw small spikes of her own blood coming out of her back.

This..wasn't normal, and curious, Yotsuba started to walk up the Tower steps, calling out the people she knew so that she might be able to find some answers. Since she didn't know how they came out, she didn't pull them back in. They just stayed like that while she climbed and called.

"Dia..Diamud! Edgeworth?! Arada! Hibiki?! Yu..Yukki?!"

Feel free to bother her or help her out.

[Being away from family in a place like this must be hard... especially since there's no guarantee that you'd ever see them again. Red ventures a pat on the back, making sure to keep his hand away from where those spikes were.]

Well, as long as ya got good people helpin' you out, that's good! You can always ask for me, too. Red, remember?

[sunflowerfairy]

[Actually, the spikes were retracted now, so Red didn't have to worry about them. However, Yotsuba smiled at that. She didn't get pats on the back often-people usually went with the head, so it was an interesting change of pace.]

Yotsuba remembers! The opposite of blue! And Edgeworth and Diarmuid are good people!

[savarin]

[There's always the chance she could startle and extend them again...!]

Opposite of blue, huh? I'll remember that one. Don't you worry, kid, I'm a good person too!

[Red can at least keep Dahak moving forward while they talk. Hopefully they're close to Yotsuba's room now.]

[sunflowerfairy]

[Not that she knew how yet.

However, at that, Yotsuba smiled and nodded.]

I know!

[Yotsuba lived in room 2-07, so they would probably be close by now.]

[savarin]

[There's name plates on the walls, and Red's checking them as he goes. There's his room, 2-10, and... just a few doors down, he spots it. Yotsuba Koiwai, residing in room 2-07. Dahak stops, and Red gently nudges the girl in the side.]

Hey, we're here! Lemme have the lever back and I'll put a hand down so you can climb down.

[sunflowerfairy]

[Yotsuba let go of the level and scootched over, smiling.]

Okay! And I can draw you a picture of a puppy and a kitty!

[savarin]

Sounds good! I'm excited to see what's different about 'em!

[Red takes the lever again, moving Dahak's arm down so that Yotsuba can disembark safely. Once she's down, he'll just drive it into the room; who knows what monsters could do to the robot?]

Alright, got your stuff ready?

[sunflowerfairy]

[Yotsuba carefully and quickly climbed down the robots arm before running into her room..only to be followed by the robot.]

Hold on!

[Yotsuba pulled her sketchbook and a box of crayons out of her trunk before sketching a very fat-looking cat on one page and a very odd-looking dog on the other. They were horrible drawings, but Yotsuba was proud of them, so she smiled as she tore them out of her sketchbook and put them in the robot's hand.]

There you go!

[savarin]

Hey, thanks! Now, let's see...

[Gently, Dahak takes the pieces of paper and lifts them up for Red. He leans forward in the cockpit, looking them over - or trying to. They're not very good, to say the least... about all he gets out of it is that they're four-legged and not humanoid.]

Er, they... they look great! Thanks, Yotsuba. I'll keep these real safe.

[Red plucks the drawings from the metal hand, tucking them away in the cockpit. They're bad, but he'll keep them to make Yotsuba happy.]

[sunflowerfairy]

[At the compliment, Yotsuba smiled and beamed. She loved drawing and thought she was a great artist, so this was nice.]

You're welcome! I love to draw!

[savarin]

[Yotsuba's enthusiasm is infectious; Red can't help but grin himself.]

You're not bad at it! Maybe one day I'll let ya draw me, but I gotta go and make sure other people are doin' okay too.

[Here comes one of those big hands, Yotsuba! It's going to... ruffle your hair, ever so gently. Red's good at controlling that robot.]

Stay safe, kid.

[sunflowerfairy]

Oh, okay! Yotsuba will try to draw you some other day then!

[Yotsuba watched happily as that hand got closer and laughed a little when it ruffled her hair.]

You too, Red! Be careful!

[savarin]

I will! See ya later, Yotsuba!

[He grins widely, giving a thumbs-up - with Dahak, too - then turns the robot around and stomps off into the halls. Until next time.]

[sunflowerfairy]

[Yotsuba, not knowing what a thumbs-up quite meant, waved instead and yelled happily.]

See you later! Thank you!

[After he left, she would then go back to drawing in her sketchbook..a picture of Red, created from memory.]
