[ Terra is getting a lot of use out of this communicator lately! She's hurrying through town, so the feed is probably shaking quite a bit. ]

Locke? Where are you?

[ If she sounds anxious, she is. He said he wouldn't leave her alone. He would tell her if he had gone somewhere without her. Surely something hadn't happened to him. She stops running

In the hotel. I thought he was just going out to pick something up from the item shop, but something's wrong with his communicator. I can't reach him.

That's what worries me - thank you, Sailor Uranus. Where are you?

I'm on my way back to the hotel also. [ A slight pause. ]

Yes - thank you. I will be back at the hotel in about ten minutes.

Okay.

[ She's a bit relieved to have the help - she'll be in the hotel lobby talking for the umpteenth time to the innkeeper about whether Locke's turned up, so by the time Uranus reaches the lobby, Terra will be pacing worriedly, mentally going over where she might not have checked. ]

[Avast! Here there be Action!]

[lastesper]

[ Terra stops pacing when she sees the other woman, the smile only half mustered. ]

I see... I was afraid of that. The innkeeper said they haven't see him today either. [ She could tell they were tired of her asking. They answered the question before she even asked it this time. ]

And the moogles at the dock haven't seen him either. I'm not sure where else to look.

[Avast! Here there be Action!] :D

[lastesper]

[ She looks momentarily alarmed at the idea. ]

No - that's not possible.

[ Well it -is- possible, she just doesn't want to consider it. She hesitates. ]

I mean...maybe. I thought maybe he was kidnapped by someone, An enemy.

[ She only half believes that. Locke was so nice, who would be enemies with him? No one from the Empire was here. ]

[Avast! Here there be Action!]

[lastesper]

[ Pensive. ]

... I don't know. We didn't get a chance to catch up on things here before...

[Avast! Here there be Action!]

[lastesper]

...

[ It was the possibility that made the most amount of sense, and that she wanted to hear the least. ]

He couldn't keep his promise.

[ So she really was all alone now. Still, if there was a sign that her friend was out there - and so far there wasn't any ... ]
