[She walks through the doorway completely lost in her thoughts.]

...I wonder where Yuuki-chan went. Headmaster Kurosu said that she was sleeping but she wasn't there when I went in.

I just hope she's....ah? Why is there a fount...aaaAAAHH!!

[Coughing and spluttering is heard as she

According to what several nice people told me, this place is called The City.

Are you allright, Miss?

[Slight static from her picking up the receiver]

I believe I'm okay...

So this is called the City? But...how did I end up in the City?

Voice

[baixin]

Allright! If you ever need any help, though all you need do is ask.

Yes. I.. have no idea, to be frank. People have stories about how they end up here, but I don't really remember myself. Do you?

Re: Voice

[hushed_observer]

I only remember walking through a doorway..and then I fell in the fountain.

Re: Voice

[baixin]

I don't really remember how I got here. But I was near the carousel when I did.

Where are you from, Miss?

Re: Voice

[hushed_observer]

There's a carousel as well? It sounds almost carnival-like.

I am..or was from Kurosu Academy's Day class.

Re: Voice

[baixin]

There is, and it appears rather frightful-like.

So you were in class when you disappeared? There is a school here, I'm told.

Re: Voice

[hushed_observer]

A frightful carousel...that is new.

I wasn't quite in class, more like trying to visit a friend....

A school here? Does that mean that some people stay here permanently?

Re: Voice

[baixin]

So is the thought that apparently there is a clock underneath this place that is counting down until the end of this world, and possibly others. I need to see it for myself, in order to believe that.

Ah.

Well, I'm not sure. I hope not. I met someone who has been here for a year and a half, so your estimate is as valid as mine is.

Re: Voice

[hushed_observer]

A clock counting down until the end of the world? That I would also need to see to believe. It sounds a bit...impossible?

[A gasp is heard]

A..a..year and a half?! Oh no...that is a lot of classes to miss.... and my family... Well...I suppose there's nothing really I can do about it. There isn't an easy way out of here is there?

Voice

[baixin]

I will never believe that rumor until I see the contraption for myself. Though if it exists, would it even be counting down to the end of the world? There's no proof of that, either.

[Gentle sigh]

Yes, I'm afraid so. I'm concerned about my studies, too but fortunately they have a school here, with voluntary attendance. So we can still get to learn! I'm sorry about your family, ojou-san.

I don't believe so.

Voice

[hushed_observer]

That is a good point...

I wonder if they have classes that are my level ther..

I would probably have to inquire about that but I'll likely wait until Yuuki-chan and Zero-kun come and get me.

I probably should have guessed that there was no easy way out. I should try to do what I can then to make my stay here somewhat enjoyable...

Voice

[baixin]

Thank you!

Well, I'm in level eleven. What about you?

Allright, so long as you're doing well where you are.

That is what I have been doing, too. It isn't so bad, so long as the curses stay at bay.

Re: Voice

[baixin]

How so?

Allright! But if you need anything, you can let me know.

Ah.. yes. Often enough. Like yesterday. That was my first experience, and I wish I knew it would be the last.

Voice

[hushed_observer]

Ano...the Night class was just..I'm not sure really I just didn't feel comfortable around them.

Thank you for your offer! I shall keep it in mind.

...I'm not sure that I would do too well with curses. In the story books, usually they're bad ones where people get turned into frogs....

Are they like that here?
