9. [Title Unreadable]

[corrinesbell]

[ooc: The internet is working here, for now, so I've decided to come back a bit early. I apologize if I suddenly disappear - the wireless in this place is insanely shaky.]

*in shaky, hardly readable writing*

I...I can't... H-How did I get...here? I feel like... I can't get...can't even...

Can...someone...

I'm coming, Sheena. Stay there.

[corrinesbell]

Don't!

[salvationfound.livejournal.com]

I can accompany Lloyd if you wish.

[corrinesbell]

...K-Kratos...

No, it's-- *scribble scribble* ...fine. I'll...I can wait. Y-You don't need to come.

[salvationfound.livejournal.com]

There is safety in numbers, and the Malnosso have been kidnapping people at an alarming rate. I believe a couple of your friends have been taken as well.

[corrinesbell]

What? Who?

[salvationfound.livejournal.com]

...I never knew their names. But the little girl has been missing for a whole day now, and I found something that belongs to the other girl.

That is why I feel Lloyd and I should come for you as soon as possible. The situation is dangerous.

[corrinesbell]

What?!

I'll go back there, then! They...they can't...!!!

...The Malnosso can't do much more to me than they already have.

But...I have to go after them.

[salvationfound.livejournal.com]

Do you know where they are?

[corrinesbell]

...I know where I was.

[salvationfound.livejournal.com]

...

Lloyd is right. You can't go after them in the shape you're in. You need to rest and recover first.

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

C'mon, Dad. Let's just go find her.

[salvationfound.livejournal.com]

Agreed. Judging by her condition when she wrote that, if she tried to go after those two, she shouldn't be able to go too far.

[corrinesbell]

...I can read this, you know.

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

Right. We'll catch up to her.

*will just ignore Sheena's response for now ♥*

Right. *equips his sword! Though it's not his own - simply one that he bought from one of the shops* Are you ready?

[corrinesbell]

[ooc: I'd love you back but Sheena and I are tortured with the visualization of the Malnosso having captured both Pearl and Stella. We are thus preoccupied and also slightly miffed (well, she is) at the muns, but we love them anyway~]

*although she's already trying to head back the way she came...*

[salvationfound.livejournal.com]

((ooc: Pearl-mun and I had that planned for like two weeks now. 8D;;; *sends many ♥s your way!*))

[corrinesbell]

[Yes, Pearl-mun decided to tell me that TODAY, after I came back because I was too bored without you and the internet was working.]

[salvationfound.livejournal.com]

((We love you! >: ♥♥))

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

I'm ready. Let's go.

[ooc: &hearts (http://corrinesbell.livejournal.com/2915.html?thread=76131#t76131)]

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

You can't go after them if you're collapsing, Sheena. Let us find you and then we'll worry about finding the others.

[corrinesbell]

Y-You don't get it! I can't leave them there...not if the Malnosso have them...

[Because picturing them doing to Pearl what they did to her is tearing her mind apart, basically.]

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

Sheena. We have to work together. You won't be helping them if you get yourself killed.

Just wait five minutes for us to get there. Okay?

[corrinesbell]

It's not like I can go anywhere, even though I want to.

Fine.
