[It's early afternoon. The journal flies open and turns on abruptly in mid-air, a blast of resonating energy having blown it away from where it had been placed. As it flies, a few flashes of red, white, and black are visible, and when it lands, Asch and Luke are in the distance, swords clashing, the rec center just beyond where they're fighting.

Okay, now she knows that's not normal. Her head whips toward the sound, and she then sees the light in the sky. Call it instinct, or intuition, but something heavy falls on her shoulders when she sees the light, and Miyabi begins a mad dash towards where the light was coming from, fighting off a literal stampede of frightened forest animals that were running from the commotion. Thankfully, only the smaller animals actually collide with her, and she shoves them off roughly before scrambling up and forward once again. She doesn't want to lose sight of that light source.
It takes her a while, being so small, but she makes it to the destroyed area, gasping when she sees the overall destruction. Carefully, she approaches the edge of the crater, peeking down into the gaping hole. Nothing. No one was there. Heart thundering against her chest for reasons Miyabi doesn't yet understand, she looks around, frantically calling out for someone, anyone. Spying the journal, and the name on it, she actually begins to feel that weight fall even harder on her chest as well.
You idiot. What did you do?!
Opening her own journal, she calls out, panicked, and hoping he was okay.]
Asch?!

Miyabi... He's okay. [C-Cough.]

And then, once she's done feeling relief, comes the anger. The anger from being so damn scared, and concerned. She'll apologize later, once she's calmed down and is able to wrap her arms around the two, but for now,...brace yourself, Luke. There is an angry poncle on the other side of that journal, aura shifting to a red hot glow.]
What the heck were you two doing?! I heard a huge explosion in the forest, and when I went to see, I saw a huge hole and Asch's journal all charred and smoking! Do you know how scared I was?! I thought you blew up or something! The moment you get home, I'm going to hit you both so hard, you--you idiots!

You think we wanted this to happen? Hey replica, tell her to stop yelling already! Is she trying to drown us?

Please stop yelling. [Deadpan.]

[Herr voice is shrill, and squeaky. ASCH, YOU ARE NOT HELPING, GOD. Miyabi's anger only increases, and the hands holding her journal begin to shake. She wants to explode, to scream at them until her lungs burst, to tell Asch to shut his big mouth or she'll shove a Cherry Bomb down his throat, but she just bites she lip and shakes all over. ...Idiots. Stupid, stupid, stupid idiots!
They're okay. They're okay.
Miyabi utters the tiniest of gasps, and her voice crumbles to pieces. She was so scared, she had thought the worst, but they were okay.]
Just come home!
[She hating sounding so desperate, so weak, but these two were her family, experiment or not.]

But then she speaks again, and her voice sounds completely different. Luke hadn't seen what their disappearance looked like, but... it must've been bad, from what Miyabi said. An explosion, huh... Sounds about right. And for someone to witness, especially someone close...
Luke brings the journal close again and tries for a grin. It's tired, but it's there.]
We're trying. We're not really... going very fast.
Reply
We'd go a lot faster if someone had learned how to swim!

Don't...don't strain yourselves.
[But hurry. Don't drown. She's tempted to grab a bird and rush to them, but...what could she do? Even if she got there, she was so little, she couldn't do anything, and if she sized herself up, it'd take forever to get to where they were. And what could she do then, if she did get there? Swim to them? That's stupid, they'd all get stuck.]
Let me know when you're safe...please. Both of you. If I don't hear from you both, I'll...I'll hate you.
[THIS IS NOT A LIE, SHE'LL TOTALLY HATE YOU FOREVER. Really. Truthfully. ... 8|]

[That was to Asch. Now he'll direct his attention to Miyabi, thus missing how Asch reacts to that.]
Heh... don't worry, Miyabi, we'll - wait Asch what the-

[What. What is going on?! Suddenly Luke was talking, then he was cut off and--...splash?
All Miyabi can see is Luke going under, and Asch pushing him down. She nearly jumps out of her skin, a startled yelp escaping her lips. WHAT THE HELL WAS ASCH DOING?! Miyabi grips her journal, eyes wide with horror and rising fury. This time, though, she doesn't hold back.]
ASCH, I WILL KILL YOU WHEN I FIND YOU!
Reply
Maybe I just won't let you find me, then. [You could show a little sympathy, Luke's the one being an ingrate.]
Reply
... Though at least Asch's isn't really trying to kill him. Good to know.]
Reply
[Remember the last time you did that? You fell on you ass, man. 8| But she'll plot killing you later. Right now, she's worried about you both, especially Luke since he almost drowned again. Stupid Asch.]
Just get back safely. [She pauses, then frowns, then pouts.] So I can hit you for worrying me so much.
