Terra's been in Somarium long enough now to somewhat know the lay of the land. As of now, he's wandering around the residential district, looking for any sign of baddies running around the area, when he happens upon the very park that Allen's in. As he's exploring, he walks past the tree Allen's against on the opposite side, catching sight of someone there out of the corner of his eye.

He rounds the tree, and immediately stops when he sees blood. "Hey! Are you all right?" And now he kneels down to shake the boy gently, already wondering if he should start casting a cure spell if he can manage it. Why are you bleeding, there's no blood in Disney. D8

[walk_in_grey]

He was breathing. Surprisingly it wasn't the breathing of an injured person. Rather the breathing of exhaustion, slow yet deep. When he was shaken, Allen stirred as his consciousness started to resurface slowly.
His eyes seemed to flutter under his lids as if dreaming, before they started to open slowly. A voice? It certainly didn't sound like any he had heard before.

"W-Who is there?" he muttered before shutting his eyes sharply at the light blinding him. God did he feel sore all over. Wait a second. This place, there was no scent of battle or destruction. No scent of bloody. In fact he could sense nature's odors all around and that gentle wind. What? This...isn't where he was!!

As these scenes transpired there was a tiny golden ball waking up as a mother bird poked it with its beak. Pesky pokey bird let him sleep a few more minutes.

[kindofearthy]

Oh thank goodness, he's alive. "My name's Terra. I'm going to help you out, okay?" He shifts so he's blocking the sun from Allen's vision, "Did you just arrive here?"

He doesn't notice the gold ball just yet, considering how he's trying to make sure Allen's not still bleeding from anywhere.

[walk_in_grey]

Allen groans a bit as he feels all of the recent additions to his wound collection protest to his attempts to move. Terra? That is not a name he remembers. Why did everything feel so out of place and different.

Ah now that the sun is no longer in his eyes, Allen can open his eyes. His silvery orbs widen when he sees the place he is in. This is NOT the North America Branch ruins!

"Arrived? Here? Where....where is *here*?" he asks with a sore voice. Seems his throat has finally called it quits on him after all of that fighting and yelling. He's still trying to understand WHY he is in a completely different place than where he last was.

Flonne had been looking at shops when she noticed the boy. She was smiling before she noticed all the bruises and cuts. She ran to him. "Are you alright?!" she asked. She took a few steps back and summoned her wand. Thank god she could still use it. "Prima Pretty Prippanica! Heal; strength of love!" she chanted as a warming healing light came from it. She looked to the boy. "Do you feel better now?"

[walk_in_grey]

He didn't have the awareness to catch the words that were said to him but Allen's brain clearly registered that the person addressing him was a girl.

Allen still had his eyes closed when he suddenly felt enveloped by some kind of warmth. Given how his vision also lit up through his lids it was most likely a light. But why was it that his wounds no longer ached as much.

Slowly he opened his eyes once he was convinced the light was not in his eyes. That didn't stop the luminance of the surroundings to blind him as his eyes had adjusted to the dark. Now he had to let them adjust to the light again.

Still he heard the question and it would be rude not to answer.

"It would seem so." Allen spoke up and opened his eyes again. This time he did it slowly so as to let them get used to the brightness.

[ainoakuma]

Flonne sighed in relief. She hadn't used her magic much ever since she had turned into a fallen angel. She was glad she could still use it. She wasn't sure if she could use half her stuff would still work. After all, most of them were "holy". She wasn't an angel anymore, therefore, anything holy would most likely not work. I.E. Holy Arrow. Granted, it had a heart at the end of the arrow, but that wasn't the point. If anything, at least the boy was safe. "Thank goodness... What happened?" she asked.

[walk_in_grey]

Allen took a few moments to answer as he could only stare wide eyed at his surroundings. If it weren't for his manners he would have probably continued to stare in shock. Still his rescuer had asked a question and he was obliged to answer....even if he didn't know the answer to that either.

"I am afraid I have no idea. This...isn't the place I was in before." Allen said uncertainly. He mentally kicked himself for not being able to give a better answer.

Aerith was making her usual rounds about Somni, tugging the colourful cart of flowers behind her as she walks along. Seeing as she has nothing better to do when her deliveries are done, the flower girl heads on into one of the parks. Her attention is mostly focused on the tops of the trees, admiring the ever-changing colours of the leaves as the season sets in. She never got to see things like this really in the slums of Midgar.

Unfortunately she can't admire them for long when she finally looks down and notices the boy resting against one of the tree-trunks. By now he obviously isn't as badly wounded, but he still looks a bit out of shape and clearly exhausted. So for the sake of making sure he's not dead, Aerith heads on over, leaving her cart of flowers off to the side and kneeling down in front of the white-haired boy.

"Hello?" She says softly, tilting her head to the side. She leans in a bit, checking to see if he's breathing. "Hello~?"

[walk_in_grey]

Allen hadn't closed his eyes again for long before he heard a new voice calling out to him. Honestly. He should have moved out of sight by now. What was he doing getting other people worried about him?

Allen opened his eyes to answer the young woman.

"Hello miss" he replied with a tired smile yet still managed to put enough brightness behind it. No need to worry her any more than he already had. By now his left arm was also back to normal. Well as normal as a pitch black arm could be.

[beautifulmartyr]

She only glanced at his arm briefly, hardly one to think it was odd when she had seen stranger things in this place. What was with people and their arms though? First Malik had his amputated, Nero had a strange looking one, and now this boy, too.

Aerith happily returned the smile, hooking her arms around her legs as she hugged them to her chest. "You're going to hurt your back if you sleep against a tree like that you know," She teased a bit, not bothering to address the obvious scars and what have you, "Did you just get here? I haven't seen you around before."

[walk_in_grey]

Allen had to blink sheepishly at the jest before giving a light laugh in return

[sinnerofdreams]

Road had been enjoying the weather despite how crisp it had become. The decorations certainly made it better to be walking around though and she did admit it reminded her fondly of the Noah family. That and the atmosphere sent a chill up her spine. Something was going to happen soon, she could tell. At this point, she didn't care what it was, so long as it was interesting she could care less.

When she made a detour through on the of the parks, she couldn't help but notice a familiar looking head of hair. Road almost didn't believe it to be honest. All the Exorcists had come and gone so quickly that she never had any time to really play with them but a wicked little grin couldn't help but spreading onto her face when she knew, yes, it certainly was Allen.

"Allen! You're back!" Road more or less ran towards him, dropping her parosal to hug him.

[walk_in_grey]

Allen felt like an ice age hit his spine turning it into a perfectly preserved relic. That voice. He had been fearing and expecting her to be here. After all she was the Noah of dreams and this place WAS a dreamworld supposedly. Still he hoped it wouldn't happen so soon

[sinnerofdreams]

She expected not to recieve a hug back from Allen, but really, when did it matter what Allen wanted? It was all about her and what was good for the Noah family.

Road didn't release him from her hug and merely sent an acidic little glare coupled with a smile in the direction of Timcampy. With a little blast of air from her mouth, she hoped to send the golem spiraling from Allen's shoulder completely. "Oh, I suppose it would make sense that you don't remember the last time you were here. That's okay."

At that she pulled back, grinning. "Don't worry~ Now that you're here everything is okay."

[walk_in_grey]

Foolish girl. Timcampy had more power in his wings than your breath could produce. No he was staying. Just...holding on to master's hair and watching you from the top of his head.

Allen on the other hand had to scowl a bit.

"And why should I believe you? How do I know you're not just trying to put ideas into my head?" he said with a leveled gaze at the Noah girl.

"is it?" he said an a chilly indifferent tone. If Road thought everything was ok then everything was doomed for the rest of the world.

[charientisms]

[He had not been particularly expecting an opportunity such as this, but--

He shall make use of it.

And so Break saunters over, expression set in a typical smile.]

My, my~

One of the more interesting arrivals into this world, I must say.

[walk_in_grey]

[Allen was pretty much ready to get up and try to explore a bit when this man just walked over to him. The mop of white hair surprises him. Back in his world his hair color was pretty unique amongst humans who were not of age. This man didn't seem all that old either. Certainly older than him but still.]

I suppose I am...

[He can't get a read on this person. For some reason he has a very familiar feel. Something similar to his master and that's enough to make him be careful.]

My name is Allen Walker. Might I ask who might you be?

[charientisms]

[In response, Break offers a bow, sweeping his sleeve out and generally making the entire thing more dramatic than it has to be.]

A pleasure, Mister Walker. I am known as Xerxes Break. Shall I welcome you to Somarium?

[walk_in_grey]

[hoho a real gentleman. Though he did seem a bit more flamboyant than necessary. Regardless to Allen he was quite the peculiar fellow]

I wish I could say it is good to be here, mister Break. But that would be a lie of the highest degree I am afraid.

[a polite smile but with a tiny bit of an edge behind it.]
