TEAM SHOUJO: Rescuing Rinoa toxicrevenger August 19 2010, 02:02:44 UTC

It wasn't every day that a person got the chance to go back in time, and so, Pamela had assembled a team of friends to go and rescue Rinoa. Aside from the fact that the brunette was a very nice person, she was also Lucy's roommate. That was all the motivation Pamela needed to get involved. However, the time period they were travling to, and especially the location were added bonuses. It probably wouldn't hurt to spend a few hours there.

"Everyone ready?" she asked.

Lucy would be lying if she said that the thought of traveling to the past didn't terrify her a little. After all, never in all her years of reading about the X-Men's bizarre adventures had she ever really thought she'd find herself caught up in something as impossible as time travel. This was something that happened to characters in books, not in real life!

Yet, at the same time she was also excited. Here was her chance to finally be proactive, to show that she belonged in this school and that she was not just some passive victim who ran away. Besides, Rinoa was the one in danger, and even if all Lucy had felt was soul chilling terror at diving into the unknown she would still have done so for her friend.

Checking her gear one last time, she turned to Pamela and nodded. "I'm ready."

Pamela checked over her supplies one more time. She had brought plenty of seeds with her, so food would absolutely not be an issue. Although it might have seemed like an odd thing to bring, she had packed SPF 70 sunblock. She also had a change of clothing for more summery weather and had brought a large bottle of water to share. In case they wanted to/needed to blend in, she'd brought sheets that could easily be tucked and safety-pinned into place for makeshift togas.

Her abilities could be used offensively if needed, and Lucy's portals could get them out of a tight spot, so she felt they were about as ready as they possibly could be for this adventure while still packing lightly.

"All right, then. Let's go."

She punched in the settings and turned some dials in the time machine and braced herself for the trip.

Rescuing Jinx and Shikamaru (You know you wanna!) jinxed_goth August 19 2010, 02:31:55 UTC

Being sent back to 1876 - and not just 1876, but to Scotland - had taken some getting used to, although Jinx had been fortunate enough to find Shikamaru within her first week there. Or more accurately, he found her. Pink hair got attention, after all. Fortunately, people believed her claims of formerly being part of the circus. Her acrobatic ability did wonders for backing up that story.

Months had passed, and she had even painted a portrait of Shikamaru with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Still, it didn't seem as though anyone was coming to rescue them just yet. Then again, it was entirely possible that there wasn't anything available to rescue them just yet. It wasn't as if time travel was common.

At first, he didn't know where he was, much less when, until several things happened to make him realize that yes, he had indeed gone back in time. At least it was in Japan? He didn't mind it much because he was quite fluent in the language, though the old style of writing style wasn't something that he had come across before, but was then had just slowly grown accustomed to reading. [He still wrote any messages or notes in the way he was used to, which probably confused the people meant to read them.] Then, strange things happened when he came across the one person in history he had at least done some research on. Thank God for those mandatory history reports in the Japanese school he attended.Oda Nobunaga was quite younger than what he had expected, but he was still a rather imposing figure even at the age of 26. It was a weird twist of fate that they even met, but after knowing that he had indeed participated in the battle of Okehazama in Oda's favor, he knew exactly where in time he was - June of 1560 ( ... )

RESCUE PARTY OF (AT LEAST) 2 COMING~*~ clownfeethero August 19 2010, 16:02:33 UTC

The first thing Sora had done upon arrival in Japan was to totally make a fool of himself by checking out how cool this place was. After a long discussion with some angry-looking people, he finally made the locals believe he was a traveling foreigner who loved new places. Which, actually, wasn't all that untrue.

But if finding Riku had been difficult, finding other students was somehow more so, if for the fact that it took Sora two whole days just to figure out how to properly buy something to eat. It wasn't so bad; he had clothes now and he'd set up camp with Riku outside the border of a city called Nagoya.

"Nagoya..." Sora said, because that was some of the only Japanese he'd managed. He still thought if he spoke enough in American-English, eventually if there was a student here, they'd be able to detect more of their kind around. Him trying to learn Japanese (badly) probably would have had the same effect. "Look at the maple trees! What were those again? Kaede?"

"I think so?"

To be quite honest, he remembered how to simply say 'tree' more than he remembered how to specify what sort of tree something was. But it sounded like it could have possibly been the right word at the very least. But then again, it could have something else entirely different and wouldn't that have been awkward.

Still, at least they'd managed to not be totally lost. True, he had something of a sneaking suspicion that people were giving him funny looks behind their backs, but that... might actually turn out to their advantage, especially if word got around about 'those funny looking people'.

He heard something he hadn't heard in a long, long time. The English Language. With an American accent. Was he hallucinating?

No, he wasn't. It seems as if he were within earshot of two youths that had been speaking it, one with dark brown hair, and another with silvery-white hair. As he sat there thinking for a moment as to whether or not he was making it all up in his mind, he just couldn't help but want to approach them.

He rose up, and cautiously made his way toward them, keeping a hand on the hilt of his sword as he did so. When he got close enough to them, he only gave them a slight bow before he spoke to them.

"Did... do you two speak English?"

Keeping it simple enough like this was for the best. If he was mistaken, then he could just come up with some excuse and go well on his way toward the castle.
