Just a simple stroll in the park

Jan 30, 2008 11:58

Kyouya stepped outside of his mansion in Cordova after having spent a fitful night filling in paper work for MDEA while strange sounds echoed around his new home all night long lingering even still into the afternoon. He originally intended to have his driver take him around the Cordova District so he could find Tamaki but his new driver was no ( Read more... )

Sprawled on one of the park benches was a blue-uniformed man, not one of the MDEA authorities of this world, but clearly some type of military officer. He leaned back, elbows resting on the edge of the bench as his head lolled back as if he'd fallen asleep. He looked rather disgruntled in the fog, and after he'd been still long enough that one might wonder if he were indeed asleep, he raised a hand to rub the bridge of his nose glasses tipping back in the process and then he resituated himself more comfortably on the bench, pulling something out of his pocket to look at.

Kyouya walked along the edge of the park for a while glancing at houses as he walked by them. None of them struck him as being "Tamaki" enough. He was about to walk back towards his own home when a voice drifted out from the direction of the foggy park.

来て...急いできてください...たすけて...

If the cry hadn't sounded so like Tamaki he wouldn't have gone head long into the park as he did.

Tamaki was, is, and forever will be....an oblivious idiot. Screams? Creepy things going on? Not as far as Tamaki Suou is concerned. Sure, a couple friends have been out of touch these last couple days, but nowadays Tamaki is used to being out of touch.

It's been almost a month since he came to Desai. Almost a month since he last spoke to any of them. His old friends. His father. His grandmother, even.

Tamaki strolls about Cordova, passing a park while he walks. There aren't any children playing, today...And though he can't explain why, this bothers him. ...For about a minute.

"Oh, look! It's sort of dark out. I wonder if I should have brought an umbrella...?"

A person? Finally! onlyformerits January 31 2008, 05:22:12 UTC
Kyouya ran rather far into the mist, he only stopped after he realized he had done so. It then occurred to him how utter silly he had been in following the voice. There was no possible way that Tamaki's voice (as loud as it is) could carry such a far distance. He had fallen for some sort of trick to lure him in farther. Why anyone would want to lure him of all people in was intriguing considering how few people in Desai probably know Japanese let alone know that he himself is Japanese. Something was terribly wrong.

Kyouya looked around completely and utterly lost, his sense of direction was never very good considering how he never had to go anywhere without someone to drive him around.

In slight dismay Kyouya loosened his grip on his 9 iron, the bottom of the gulf club smacked the concrete walk way. A voice from somewhere ahead of him called out...

Hughes heard a metallic clang echoing not too far in the distance and sat straight up on the bench with a start. The thickness of the fog made it impossible to tell just how far away or from what direction the noise had come.

With the heightened stress he was experiencing after listening to all of the jumbled voice entries on the device given to him by the MDEA upon going through customs, the soldier didn't know what to expect.

A twitch of his hand brought a push knife to bear, even though he'd said he wouldn't use his weapons... He wasn't going to be left defenseless if he could help it. However, it seemed his caution had been unnecessary.

Looking through the thick fog, Hughes pinpointed a humanoid figure and cautiously approached until the figure became more clear. It was just a child... albeit a young adult, but still a child. What was he doing out here at a time like this?

Slipping the knife back into its hidden sheath where he could quickly pull it out again if necessary, Hughes called out, "Do you need some help?"

Kyouya picked up his club once more and as gracefully as he could (could he be graceful when he wanted to be, after all he was a host)slung it back over his shoulder. He looked the man in front of him over: military designed uniform, this man could potentially be an ally. Though he seemed a bit jumpy, best to calm him down with gentle talk before questioning him.
"I could use assistance, yes. I heard someone calling for help who sounded much like an acquaintance of mine. I rashly took a step into the mist to aid the owner of the voice but soon realized the error of my impulses to save another human being," Kyouya smiled politely, in reality no matter whose voice it had been he would have expected some sort of reward for his services, but this stranger need not know that, "My name is Ootori Kyouya. May I inquire your name sir?"

"Lieutenant Colonel Maes Hughes," he answered automatically, wondering absentmindedly if he was supposed to answer as Brigadier General. Whatever it was, it didn't really matter here. He'd figure all that out if when he got back to Desai.

For now, he looked the child before him over skeptically. His attire and speech clearly marked him as a high standing individual, and he was likely to be rather sheltered. From the looks of it, that could very well be the case, as he saw young Ootori was carrying a golf club. Was he really planning on going out golfing in this eerie fog, when most everything was shut down and MDEA was in the process of taking care of whatever incident had occurred?

"Has this aquaintence of yours gone missing?" the soldier asked, thinking of the many recordings he'd listened to earlier. Many had seemed to disappear...

"な-何?” Kyouya took a step back from the creature. "What the hell is that thing?!"
The faceless nurse's sickening lurching made Kyouya want to vomit on the spot. There was something so perversely wrong with the human-like woman before them. He wanted to turn and run but he could only manage to stumble back a few feet. His palms sweating in fear.

The reactions of the two behind him served to bring Hughes out of the funk he himself experienced at the first sight of the nurse. These two were depending on him for protection.

"Keep back," he said, taking another step back and holding out an arm to herd the two behind him as he held his small blade ready in his other hand watching the slow, sickening approach of the woman. His voice was clear and commanding despite the fear he was experiencing. What was that thing? He'd never seen anything like it, and her slow approach was even more disconcerting than the rapid attack he'd experienced at the hand of Lust. He didn't need to think about that! He needed to get these children out of here.

"Listen, to me," he said, voice calm as he tried to maintain a safe distance between them and the approaching nurse. The petrified Tamaki made that rather difficult and the nurse was slowly getting closer. In seconds she'd be within enough reach to swing that pipe... "I want Kyouya to lead the way to his house. You understand? We're going to run."

The golf club in Kyouya's hand slipped a bit which suddenly cleared his senses of fear. He had a weapon on him, it was nothing fancy but it had reach and it was better than nothing.
"Ummmm I don't know the way back. I got turned around in the fog. Tamaki do you remember the way from which you came?" Kyouya slowly grabbed Tamaki's arm with his free hand dragging him slowly behind him. The nurse appeared to have no eyes but he didn't want to take the chance that it could move fast when it wanted to.

For a good few seconds, Tamaki didn't move; didn't say a sound. He could only stare in wide-eyed terror at the thing that only barely resembled a woman staggering toward them. He was nearly as pale as the fog itself when he finally jerked his head in a marionette nod and took one step back.

"..I...I think so. Kyouya...what is that?!"
