Characters: Lillet and YOU.
Setting: Dormitory level, Room 1-03 to start.
Format: Whichever you like. ♥
Summary: A little witch wakes up in yet another creepy tower. Panic ensues.
Warnings: A few GG spoilers possibly?

If the unfamiliar ceiling she woke to didn't panic Lillet, the oppressive weight keeping her from moving a muscle certainly did. Without her hands, she couldn't draw a rune, without the ability to speak, she couldn't call for help. By the time the paralysis had worn off, she was ready to scream. Luckily, she suppressed the urge and worked on keeping her breathing steady instead.

Where am I? She thought, as she managed to sit up and get a better look at the room through her dizziness. It isn't the Tower, that's for sure... Maybe it's a trick. I don't hear any bells, so it can't be the Stone--

Oh, there was a letter. She stopped swaying, and leaned over to retrieve it. Maybe the written word would succeed where frantic thought had failed; she opened it with a sense of relief. Here was an explanat-- No, wait. That wasn't an explanation, that was a nightmare.

"The entire world? No way!"

Comments

Canada hesitantly butted into the conversation, chiding herself over and over again for being so rude.

"We've only met 4 men, who seem to have divided duties among them. The spider...the leader I suppose? Our kidnapper? I'm not sure they exists."

"Yes, the one who took us here," she answers, hiding her smile behind her hands. "Such a crafty creature... let us tire ourselves out struggling, struggling, struggling... then, you see, it will eat us whole..."

[thosefivedays.livejournal.com]

"Eat us?! Are they magicians? Or devils...?" She hoped it wasn't the latter. Sure, she'd made and broken enough demonic contracts to put Hell on workers' strike, but that was before time reset... wasn't it? "And is my world really--" She couldn't finish.

She shrugged, waiting to hear what Ichi had to say on the matter.

"Ichi doesn't know what they are," she says. Oichi had never actually read the note, so looks Lillet over curiously.

The lack of an answer was enough. It hit her properly then, the strangeness of this place, the foreign features of the two women and the short letter, and she curled up on herself for a few moments of personal grief. Level-headedness wasn't really enough to cope with the destruction of... well. Everything. But it was enough to ensure that she didn't do more than that before logic kicked in: if she'd been saved, surely others had too.

"W-what would be powerful enough to destroy a whole world?"

She finally sat up properly, resisting the urge to reach out and hug the girl.


"We don't really know. No one tells us."

Oichi doesn't say anything. She just reaches out for Lillet and instead of her flesh and blood fingers, the darkness that seemed to creep around her feet rises up and gently tucks a lock of her long blonde hair behind her ears, smoothing the rest of it down. It's meant to be soothing, but Lillet could easily find it the opposite-- after all, hands made out of darkness are petting her head.

Sorry for the late!

She did freeze when the darkness first brushed her hair, but what fear did bubble up was smothered by the need for comfort. After all, the touch came from a friend, however recently made. When the darkness moved to smooth down her hair, she placed one of her own hands over it as thanks.

"It's soft," the comment was made unthinkingly, as her fingers sank a little into the blackness before they touched something solid. "Thank you... I'll be alright. It's just so sudden."

Canada remained silent, unnerved a little by the display of supernatural powers, but it seemed kind. She didn't know what to say or how it would help anyways. The temptation to just leave the two girls alone was rising and she reached back for Kumariie.
