Voice post

Hello?

This isn’t home . . . Mama? Jiisan? Souta . . . ?

This is a little too familiar for my tastes.

[louder, almost with a note of desperation to it] Inuyasha?

[Silence.]

This had better not be some kind of trick!

[More silence.]

I have a test today! I don’t have time for this!! Is anyone around

I take it you're new here?

[twinarrows]

I guess so . . . ?

This is like Alice in Wonderland.

[loyallydevoted]

Heh. I guess it is sort of like that, since people from all sorts of different worlds get pulled into this place somehow.

[Kagome seems to keep forgetting that this is a voice post and the communicator seems pretty good at picking up her side commentary. Oops.]

So I'm not alone here -- the only one from another place, I mean.

[loyallydevoted]

Yeah, that's right-- seeing as we're pretty much stuck here.

[twinarrows]

That's what other people are saying too.

I really can't stay. I've got to get home -- or back where I came from, one of the two!

I can't be stuck!

[loyallydevoted]

As much as all of us would like to do the same--we don't really have a choice in it.

[twinarrows]

How long have you been here?

[loyallydevoted]

A bit more than a month...

[twinarrows]

A month . . . Another person said two years . . .

. . . This isn't good at all.

[She's silent for a moment, breathing quietly.]

I'm sorry -- I'm Kagome.

[loyallydevoted]

Mm, it isn't...

Ah, I'm Ichiru. It's nice to meet you, Kagome.

[twinarrows]

Ichiru-san. Thank you for replying.

It sounds like I'll be seeing more of you soon.

[loyallydevoted]

Sure and you might want to take a look at this guide if someone hasn't given it to you already. It tells you more about what to expect in this place.

[twinarrows]

Thank you! That should help.
