Yeah, maybe! They've got to be somewhere in this park. Whoever he came with can't have just left him here. We just have to keep looking!

[Kind of a scary thought, the idea that someone could have just brought the dog and and abandoned him here. But most people can't be that cruel, and there are still places they haven't looked...]

[sjokolade]

[Of course, Abby didn't want to think like that either. She need to keep on thinking positively or else!]

If only we can actually talk to the dog somehow, it would make things so much easier to be able to find the owners. [She said before patting said puppy]

Who would be so mean to leave you behind? That's just so mean!

[public transportation]

[Fuyuka sits alone on the subway, looking like the absolute loneliest person in the world. Far from showing her usual composure, it appears that there is something on her mind, and it's troubling her greatly.

Next to her sits a briefcase, and there are several papers in her hands that she is making an effort to read. They seem to be official-looking documents as well.

Approach her?]

[the park]

[Fuyuka was passing through the park. Despite her usual demeanor, she was someone who needed to relax same as anyone, and the park was usually calming.

Unfortunately, it didn't seem like that would be the case today, because before long, an ear piercing scream alerted her to the fact that someone was being mugged.

Fuyuka sprang into action immediately, and before the criminal knew it, she was tackling him from behind and wresting his gun from his hands. Then, she took the pair of handcuffs she had on her (she was a detective after all) and quickly bound the man's hands behind him

Once that was done, she straightened and held up both her hands]

Everyone, stay calm! I need to know if everyone is alright... and can someone please call the police?

((ooc: feel free to be a victim, the mugger themselves, or an innocent bystander))

[congratulations, Alon, you just failed a spot check, because Amy comes around the bend on her morning jog and... just gets an eyeful of everything that's going on.

She can't help but approach]

Excuse me sir, but... what kind of animal is that? I've never seen anything like it before...

[Amy has always wanted to be a cook, but she didn't want this to be how she got her start: serving at a pretzel place on the food court.

Just. The substandard ingredients. The fact that they were slathered in salt and butter to the point of excess. The fact that they looked like they'd been broiled to a crispy, tasteless death. It all added up to make her feel nauseous.

Unfortunately, she also needed the money for school. That meant she needed another job on top of working at the family bar, so here she was: in culinary hell.

Otherwise known as the food court]

[rainy day]

[it started raining late in the afternoon, and wouldn't you know it, Amy hadn't brought an umbrella with her that morning. In her defense, there was absolutely no rain forecast, so this had taken everyone else completely by surprise as well.

So, you might see a teenager running through the streets, getting absolutely drenched by the sudden downpour. It wasn't just the rain that made her run, however... she had to hurry in order to help out at home as well.]

[notspecial]

[ECHO TRIGGER GET.

...

The dog barks, and it takes Evan a second to realize he can hear the meaning behind it.]

Huh?

[Wait no, that's impossible. He ignores it.

Abby may notice that Evan is being strangely silent all of a sudden.]

[sjokolade]

[As Abby continued talking to the dog, she couldn't help but notice that something was off.

Something was quiet.

...A little too quiet.]

Uh, you okay there? Heellllooo, here in Locke City? You on Earth there? [Don't mind her waving her hand right in front of you!]

[notspecial]

[That gets Evan's attention, and he nearly jumps up out of shock.]

Uh, right! Sorry. To the bridge, of course!

[He hurries ahead at a quick pace, taking the dog with him.]

[flamberge]

[Awkward meeting is a bit awkward, though there is a small bit of relief that Michael opted to call him by the first name rather than 'Mr Aurion'ing at him. Being called dad, well, he never expected that for a minute from either of his kids. It isn't a title he deserves, after all.

Not dwelling on that now, though. Making sure this conversation doesn't go too awkwardly for either of them takes priority. Being blunt about why he could be at a grocery store doesn't happen precisely for that reason. Being an ass to a cute, surprise kid isn't happening. Karl bends down to pick up the shaving cream as he answers.]

I needed to buy a few groceries. [And standing back up right.] The same goes for yourself, I take it?

[farewellmyshadow]

[Oh he just knocked a little girl over. That's not good. He cringes for a moment awaiting for her to start crying but he's mildly surprised when that's not the case. So, he goes to help her to her feet.]

I'm okay, you just startled me a bit. You're sure you're not hurt?

[farewellmyshadow]

[Now this was a face he hadn't expected to see! Michael's distressed look soon turns to a smile.]

Oh it's just you, Lloyd. I thought I might've walked into a stranger.

[Because a stranger is clearly more important than dumb ol' Lloyd. Y/Y?

The question just makes Michael turn his gaze down to his basket.]

Nothing much. Just getting some ingredients for supper. What about you?

[sjokolade]

[We're off to the bridge we go! We're off to the wonderful bridge we go! Off to find some owners and all sorts of magical things!

Okay no...]

All right, puppy, go off and do your thing! Go off and see if you can sniff around to see if your owner is here!

[Of course, she can't really talk to the dog but she can try!]

[finbulvinter]

[She quickly shoot her head. While she was mildly annoyed that she was on the ground, she just gave a sigh.]

No, I'm not, I am not hurt. [Uh, that was the right way of saying it right? As she got up, she just gave him a smile.] But what are you doing here? Are you shopping too?

[notspecial]

[The dog barks and Evan definitely hears something about where are they going? And okay, maybe he's crazy. Maybe he ought to test that theory.]

Yeah! Go on, look for the people who brought you. They should be here somewhere.

[The dog jumps up at him, sniffs him for a moment, and trots off. Evan looks slightly bewildered. Did that work or not...?]

[sjokolade]

[For a moment, Abby just stared at him and then back at the dog that just ran off sniffing around the area. At first, she wanted to say something but now she was wondering if it was just her imagination.

Nah, it couldn't be....]

I think he really likes you! Haha, I'm not too surprised, you did find him and stuck with him after all this time! I just hope we can find them in time...

[notspecial]

[Is she staring at him? Maybe he deserves to be stared at. Maybe something weird is going on. Maybe--aaaaagh you know what he's just not going to think about this right now.]

I'm sure we will! They've got to be looking for him too.

[ghostly_heiress]

[\o/]

Hmmm. Not really. Just dinner when that time rolls around.

[sjokolade]

[In response, she just gave him a big nod!]

Of course! And besides, we got the police as back up! I'm sure they'll help out a defenseless puppy around! [Even though she doesn't really trust them...

But speaking of which...]

Hey, mind if I ask you something? Have you h- [Before she could even finish her sentence, there was some barking in distance.] Huh? Hey, boy, you got something?

[notspecial]

He found something?

[Evan glances over at the source of the noise and realizes that the dog is definitely talking. Evan doesn't know if the girl he's with can hear it, but he is definitely understanding that barking. Not that he needs it to hear excited yaps as "Look! I found her," but it's hard to deny that he's getting more out of it than he should.

This is so weird.]

...Heh. Look at that.

[sjokolade]

Look at what?

[The girl asked as she tiled her head to the side. Sadly, she can't quite understand what the dog was saying but she couldn't help but raise an eyebrow at the other male.]

But anyway, I think he might have found something! He's going that way! [She said before running after him! Let's go!]

[ Sacha is dedicated. Determined. Often to the point of overworking and not getting enough rest but now? Now is finally a chance to relax.

Sort of.

He'd be lying if he didn't think that, on occasion, he deserved to treat himself. Or, more accurately, treat himself to buying something for his daughter--which is why the FBI agent can be seen perusing small, homemade toys, wondering what she'd prefer. She, of course, is with her mother--no one wants to me married to someone who's already married to the job--but Sacha still tries. ]

[notspecial]

[Crap, was it not obvious? He's not sure what is at this point.]

Hey, wait up!

[Following the source of the barking, he can see the dog up ahead running around a woman in her late twenties. That must be the one he came with, then.]

I think we've found our guy.

Kairi (Karen Christine Fisher) | Kingdom Hearts

[bottlewished]

Arts and Craft Fair

[How troublesome, she thought to herself, what sort of city would allow themselves to be humiliated by such a pitiful attempt of a 'fair'. Or better yet, how could she allow herself to be subjected to such vulgar putrid? She gave a sigh as her fingertips were placed on the top of her forehead. She had seen better artwork in kindergarten than such feasible paintings. Then again, was she expecting much from such a city? She didn't think so.

Oh why did her parents bother to send her to a place like this. She was so much happier back home in California where all the real city life was. But now, she just to be placed here? How boring. However, was that any different from herself?

With her sunglasses back on, she couldn't stand to be seen by people any longer. However, as she turned back, she gave one last stare at the artwork before moving on. ...Into bumping someone else.

Whoops.]

Excuse me, but would you please pay attention to where you were walking?

[sjokolade]

[Nope but Abby still couldn't really help and raise an eyebrow at him a few times. However, even then, she wasn't too sure.

As she made her way to the woman, she began to wave toward her.]

Hey there! I think we found your dog, miss! He was missing not too long ago but we managed to find him for you!

[Or at least she hoped that it was the owner!]

[notspecial]

[The dog leaps up at Evan, who jumps back and nearly trips trying not to get bowled over. Well, he's sure happy...]

Whoa there, boy!

[The woman laughs and makes a remark about the dog's liking for him, to which Evan can only laugh nervously.]

O-of course! I've always been good with animals.
