[The forge hisses on. It's silent for a few seconds and then...]

Hello.

[A brief pause.]

Um. Has anyone seen Dawn?

I-It's not unusual for her to... be gone a while, but she's left some weird messages, and she never came home last night.

I-I'm not worried, it's just... I can't get a hold of her. She usually at least replies to my messages.

She came by to see me not... too long ago. Maybe a day. Or more. She seemed pleasant. {Where "pleasant" means "crossbow'd", but dressed smartly!}

But I've not seen nor heard from her since. Perhaps she merely doesn't like you or your company anymore. It happens.

...Dawn's not like that, pal.

[malfattore]

Mmm, I'm merely offering a theory. I've no clue where could she be. For all we know, she could end up the next mutilated thing we see floating about on our communicators... {Empathetic, he ain't.}

voice

[knows_it_all]

She won't be.

[ He sounds certain of it, even though he has no basis for his argument other than sheer unwillingness to believe something that awful could have happened to her. ]

And you shouldn't talk about something like that so lightly.

[Concerned Hughes sounds concerned. Hey, Dawn is one of his kids, now, dangit.]

No, I haven't seen her, but I'll look for her.

[ Hey, sup bro. ]

If you like, I can handle the patrol alone the next few days, Maes.

[ You've seen firsthand how skilled he is with his array of weapons. ]

[popparazzi]

Thanks. I owe you one. Or several.

... If you happen to see her, let me know.

[manscruff]

Nessun problema.

Dawn's missing?

[ Sweet lil' Dawnie? The girl who makes the best darn muffins all Anatole has seen? Who calls him King Kunsel for standing up to Cara? Who's like a little sister to him? That Dawn? ]

I'll have a look around, and I'll let you know if I find anything.

[i_love_squats]

Count me in on helping.

[ Voice ]

[knows_it_all]

Knew I could count on you, Zack.

Wanna look together or split up? Maybe we could ask the Turks to help...?

[ Voice ]

[i_love_squats]

Up to you. We can cover more ground if we split up...?

[What did Dawnie do this time?... let's not think about the obvious answer to news of disappearances.]

Haven't seen her in a few days. I'll keep my eyes open.

[slaythemoon]

Dawn..? [Ohgod bad with names... which one was Dawn again..? No... no not that one either... wait! This voice is usually with the muffin girl, and he says she didn't come home... so that must mean... aha! Dawn is the Muffin Girl that he bid on at the auction!

Aaand she's missing.]

Shit. If I see her or hear anything, I'll let you know.

Be careful where the trail leads you, Kurosaki-kun.
