| "Mmmm." Rain stopped wiggling her legs and jumped from the desk she was sitting on. "Ne, Celestria, does this school have food? I'm hungry." She tapped her foot, jumped up and down a bit and just ran out. School was an environment that made her nervous for some reason. |

| Ranma arched an eyebrow at Rain's sudden departure... Ranma: "What's up with her?" |

| "So what now? We hide out here until-----ummm, does she know where she's going?" Anya asks, looking at the smoke trail that Rain left behind in her wake. | |||

| Ranma: "Well, I don't really know...I figure if we stay in one place too long...whatever it was that found us the first time will eventually find us here." Ranma sighed. Number one, he didn't like to break bad news to anyone like this. Number two, he didn't really like the idea of running and hiding against something he couldn't outright attack back. Number three...there was always a number three...but dammit, Ranma wasn't in the mood for excuses. Ranma: "I would kind of figure that whatever this Ozma person is doing we better stop, but I wouldn't know the first place to look. It's not like I live here, like some of you..." Ranma looked at Colleen... Ranma: "But first things first...shouldn't we like...get him worked on or something...I don't really wanna be carryin' him around all the time." |

| Ranma: "Uhm...okay. I guess that would be the best thing..." Ranma figured it probably was the best thing, if anything Colleen might be close to recovering...I mean he was dancing around a bit earlier. He just hoped that Colleen would recover quickly, in case there was another attack...and this time it would be putting innocent lives at stake. Ranma: "I guess we can only do so much around her for the time being...I don't like the idea of hiding out but I do know that we probably could use a hand from Colleen again...as dumb as it sounds. It's a lot better than carrying dead weight around." |

| Rain was currently located in the kitchen, discussing with one of the cooks that caught her grabbing some food. Mentioning who her companions were had an amazing effect on him; he shoved some extra food in her hands and led her to the door out, kindly asking her to let the kitchen staff know what she wanted beforehand next time. Rain shrugged it off and just wandered around, munching on the food she could barely hold. |

| Two: "Hmmm..." It was quite an interesting array of glances that E-0002 was getting outside of the city of Vale. Course then when you're dressed in a tight-fitting leather outfit that had multiple holes and burn marks cut into it...chances were you were probably going to get a few looks and such if you had modesty. She seemed to lack a majority of that, but got the hint that standing around drawing attention to herself like this was probably not the best thing to do. So it was walking out about a half-hour later from one of the stores that the attention that was construed as absurd or horrid went to something that was a little more respectable; white tanktop and khaki shorts. At least she had the basic idea of what a cash was. Oh, lifting it of that one person was rather easy, if you had the skill that is...especially dressed in the way she was, it was incredible that she got away with it. Now, there was a matter of figuring out where her only link to figuring out what happened went to. She saw her up to this point but then lost her trail completely. So it was going to take a matter of time to find her and she hoped that meant that it wasn't going to end up tracking her to another place. She started her search. >>> Ranma took a peak outside the hallway to see Rain coming up with a, pretty much, insane amount of food then her smallish frame should've been able to hold properly...considering it was towering a good half-foot over her head and not leaving much for her to see in terms of frontal view. Ranma: "Uh...you want me to help you with that...or didya plan on eating all of that yourself?" Which is when Ranma's stomach growled. He looked flatly downward at his stomach briefly and pursed his lips. Yep, haven't eaten for about three or four days since that one fiasco...that could do it. |

| "Hey, I'm still growing." She chuckled and piled some food on a nearby side table, tipping over the vase that was on it previously. Rain proceeded with making her pick from the pile of food, and gestured Ranma to take some too. The hallway they were in was peacefully quiet, and Rain enjoyed the silence while they ate. "I'm gonna go check out the city, just staying here is boring." She winked at him and dashed off in her lately usual energetic manner. |

| Ranma figured on Rain's idea of moving around about five minutes and a large amount of food later. Hey, he -was- a growing boy. He didn't know about the diminuitive Rain but he had reason to eat. Ranma: "Uhm...so yea...I'm prolly gonna follow her. I'll be back though. I kinda figure that if something goes down we wouldn't wanna be seperated or nuttin..." Ranma smirked and turned to head out... Ranma: "Take care of cleric for me." He made his exit out of the school about a minute later. >>> Didn't take much to pick up how to talk either. Two: "Thanks." She just got done with a conversation for find her 'long lost friend', or in the real sense, the person she was tracking because she had no clue where she was going. The person she talked to, actually several, suggested that they had seen someone fitting the description she gave head towards the school at the center of town. Given that, she made her way there, if a bit hurredly to figure out who it was that she was trailing. The pedestrian traffic that she had to contend with was pretty terrible, so that slowed her pace down. She accidentally bumped into one of the passer-bys and took a look at who she ran into and helped her back up, figuring she really didn't need another problem getting in the way of her goal. Two: "Excuse me, sorry about that." She didn't do much more after that than turn and speed off from Rain's vicinity and back into the crowd towards the school.

| "..eep." Rain brushed the dirt off and moved on, not having seen who hit her over. It happened so often anyway, she really wouldn't mind a bit more length, despite that being impossible. She dashed off to a nearby ice cream stand and ordered the biggest bowl she could, then realising she forgot to ask anyone for money before leaving. She nervously clasped her hands together and looked around, noticing Ranma from the corner of her eye. "Heeeey, share my ice cream with me! And, umm, loan me some money?" She twitched and put up such a wide smile the corners of her mouth hurted. "Pleeeeaaasee?" |

| Ranma wonder what in the heck was going on. One second he was walking through relatively heavy traffic, the next he's getting asked out on a date by someone who bore a striking resemblance to... ...oh...wait...it was Rain. Of course, the way Ranma's mind acted to it was a bit more than just a relatively easy question or two. Ranma: "Ah well...I-yuh...uhm...I don't really eat ice cream...that is uh..." ~Well...at least not as a guy...~ "...but uh...money uh..." Ranma, almost frantically, looked through his pockets to dig up anything he might've had that may work. Wait...did Vale take Japanese Yen? >>> This fit the description she was given. University of Vale, acclaimed center of magics and mantras. She had to admit, it was relatively large for what she figured something like a school was, but she really didn't have time to take in the view more than finding this one person... Apparently this person's name was Anya, after she got out of yet another conversation a few seconds ago on her way in. >>> Guard: "Yea I know who you're talking about. Anya right? She just went in about an hour or so ago. Looked like she was in a bit of a hurry." Two: "Oh...well thank you." Guard: "Don't mention it, cutie." >>> Internally, something was telling her to take some sort of plasma-powered rifle at the guard and sending the shockwave straight to his reproductive organs, but at the moment she had better things to do.

| Rain hobbled to one of the picknick tables scattered over the small plaza, and began devouring the ice cream. She had a few foods she was obsessed with, and this was one of them. But she did have the decency to leave some for Ranma, figuring it was one of those rare days they could relax inbetween the usual chaos. While she was watching his back, seeing how the blush on his cheeks had also spread to his neck, she got and odd flashback. The spoon in her hand froze halfway the bowl and her mouth, and she got an odd glaze over her eyes. "I'm pretty sure we're done for now. Keep her down for a while longer. The results will show themselves soon enough." A man in a white coat turns around and walks out of the door, closing it softly after muttering a few words to the nurse tending to her. "...don't... don't walk away... bastard..." Everything turned black as the nurse injected a clear fluid into one of the many tubes running in and out of her, and for a long while, she only heard the echo of the heart rate machine pulsing through her mind. "..truelly remarkable! Just look at the results, look at her face and you'll see straigth away! And the tests we ran; she's the only one we can successfully use for future mergings, as we had planned before. The best part is, we have all the time in the world." She couldn't hear his voice anymore, he walked out with whoever he lead in, turning his back on her again. Always walking away, turning his back towards her. She was only a testsubject to him. Why? "Further tests have harvested us more detailed results. It seems that the only remaining subject is suffering from a rare blood disease, one we deem neglectable at this stage. The succesrate of these tests and simulations have given satisfactory proof; we will proceed with merging in object 002341 into her as soon as she's fully stable, as the malfunction in her blood causes heavy blood pressure swings. Unknown if these will cause brain damage in the longer run. Permanent supervision is recommended, though the subject is kept under narcosis since the first tests began..." The voice ringing through her head faded, and she realised ice cream was dripping off her hand. |

| Ranma had been watching her for the past few minutes and figured that something was up. He didn't recall Rain having tendencies to blank out on him, especially when there was ice cream dripping down down her, he figured that was the first sign that something was up. Ranma: "Hey...anyone home?" Ranma didn't get a response from her and waved his hand in front of her, attempting to get her attention. Ranma: "Hellooo...Earth or whereever we are to Rain...anybody there?" That seem enough to shock her out of whatever she was in. He pitched her a few napkins from the side of the table for the mess. Ranma: "I thought the point of eating ice cream was to eat it before it melted." |

| "Uhh... yeah.." She blushed lightly and cleaned off her skirt, slightly relieved it was made out of a material that didn't absorb. Odd to see things like that, but she had this kind of experience before. But back then, it were her spirits forcing her to see things as they had been, leaving her shocked and pondering over recently witnessed events, while they awakened more of her skills. It was something she grew used to, and one of the only thingsshe was relieved about when she lost them. Rain sighed and put the napkin aside, to salvage some of the leftover mess. But why did she lose them again..? |

| Ranma probably wasn't the best judge of character nor was he the type of giving anyone advice...well at least very well...but seeing as Rain was positively sending out streams of negative energy all over the place... Ranma: "Uhm....you okay? You've been kinda down ever since we went away from that one ice cream stand. Thought you'd be happy that we were getting this stuff." |

| "Ohh.." She nodded and smiled. "I'm alright, no worries. I guess the latest events just made me a bit tired." After finishing the bowl, she dumped the collection of napkins and other disposable crap into the garbage can, and dragged Ranma on his feet. It was best to walk and look around, rather than just sitting here and pondering over things that couldn't be solved now anyway. "You think I can find components for my gun here?" |

| Ranma wasn't dumb and definitely wasn't convinced, but the better side of him kicked in and figured that he should let it slide for the time being, lest he blow the whole thing out of proportion. Ranma: "Uhm...I'm not really sure...not like I've ever been here and I figured you know since you've kinda lived here a lot longer than I have." ~Like all your life...~ >>> Two: "Hmm..." Two was losing patience, or however much her total emotions would allow, either way she wanted to find these people now. Incidentally, she passed by the door that housed Anya and company without even noticing them, then she doubled back when she thought she saw something familiar and walked up towards the room's open-door entry... |
