(OPEN)Lost LittleOne

[Little Sarah]

A little creature cowered down under a tree and crying into the sleeves of her pink little sweater as if they were a tissue. The long brown hair that flowed down to the middle of her back seemed silky and nice. A little pair of blue overalls that has a little patch on the pocket of a little raccoon. and like the little raccoon patch was showing who she was. the little girl seemed to have a little pair of black raccoon ears, that were soft and silky, along with a large fluffy raccoon tail that seemed to be all fur and fluff. Her clothes appeared to be semi tattered, and clutched in her tiny little hands appeared to be a stuffed tan Rabbit toy, that appeared to be a little worn down and dirty. The little creature just sat there, crying and sobbing into the sweater, trembling as if she was scared out of her wits...

which she was.

The little girl was A demon, A raccoon demon if that was not obvious by the long fluffy tail and ears. Though she didn't quite act that demonly. She was very frightened and cowardly, and unlike most demons, the little runt didn't seem to be that confident either, Needing the comfort of the stuffed toy and kept so rightly clutched in her little hands. But in a way, you could not blame her. After all she was small, really small, and she wasn't that strong, so being alone and lost someplace was quite a scary experience for the little raccoon.

"U..Usagi..." she spoke as if she was speaking to the stuffed rabbit in her arms "U..Usagi...D...Do you think Big brother....c..could be in this place?" she asked as if they Toy would answer her. She opened her large eyes to look at the top in her arms. then brought her little head down crying into her sleeve again "B..Big brother Koto..w...where are you...p...please be here big brother please..." she sobbed some, then lifted her head back up. looking around, she cling to the toy some after hearing a noise. sniffleing adn rubbing the tears from her face.

"U...Usagi..w..what are we going to do I...I dont know where to go anymore..w..where am I gonna find big brother..." she stopped hearing anouther rustle in the bushes. she let out a terrified litlte whimper, and the small creature looked around quickly, and took refuge inside where the roots spit and reveled a little burrow that had been abandoned by whatever had been loving in it. She whimpered and went inside the little borrow, cowering with her stuffed toy "please big brother....be here...


Please...."

[Genshuku]

Sometime ago:
(Ozma: So, what do we do about the robot?)
(Kaosu: ...I liked that robot...)
(Ozma: The OTHER robot.)
(Kaosu: ...oh, the one used to power the robot I was talking about?)
(Ozma: Instead of consulting me on what to do of course.)
(Kaosu: Yep.)
(Ozma: Instead of perhaps seeing if 'all energy' included CHAOS energy?)
(Kaosu: ...So, where's the robot your talking about? *sigh*)
(Ozma: I already sent a scout...thankfully, only one, because one is harder to find than, say 200. Right?)
(Kaosu: ...So, where's the robot?)
(Ozma: (#)Scout hasn't found it yet, but give her a couple minutes. I equipped her with the latest in stealth technology, including the portable cloak and the odor neutralizer.)
(Kaosu: Wasn't the cloak bugged?)
(Ozma: The cloak was bugged?)
(Kaosu: Yes.)
(Ozma: ...sigh...)


"Zi..."

Energy: Running on emergency fuel, 10%
Status: Finding energy...failing miserably.

Zi was not feeling lucky today, as first she was KIDNAPPED, but thanks to actions of people in this world she managed to escape, only to have no energy left. Thankfully, whatever genius that dropped her in the middle of nowhere put an emergency power supply on her, but even that was running out...and it also went away more quickly. She tried to stay optimistic, but after all that happened, she would rather remain uncertain.

Needless to say: Zi was a robot. She didn't really look much older than the raccoon demon herself, but in essence she was far younger than even her appearance. She was currently in the forest, not even knowing what was edible and what was not in fact trying to bite her head off. She dimly pondered about someone possibly stalking her, but as worrying about it would divert her from finding some form of energy, she didn't. She had other things to worry about, like where did she come from, where did she end up...and who is that?

Zi came through the bush, curious as to what this raccoon youkai was doing here, temporarily forgetting she could not speak their language. Well, besides a few words she picked up. It was strange knowing what they were saying, yet not being able to speak them unless she pretty much parroted them.

The girl she saw had moved somewhere...but, she could not find her. But where did she go? This was the new important thing to do, as she might be able to get her some energy, which she needed very very much. Or at least have someone to talk to...perhaps a low energy made Zi somewhat forgetful.

(Things in parenthesis can not be heard by others and are usually used when I make a notion to Ozma and Kaosu, when they have something to do with whoever I'm posting as. After all, they are in their base. Their INVISIBLE base.)

[Little Sarah]

Sarah made a little whimpering noise, clinging to her toy for dear life. She didn't know weather or not what was out there was dangerious, and the little runt was so easily frightened by the smallest sounds. She looked down at Usagi ""U..Usagi..I..I don't think t..that's big brother out there..." she spoke to the toy softly, shakeing a little bit as she did "W...What..What if b..big brother isn't in this place either...." she cried more. gripping the toy.

One of her tiny arms seemed to be shakeing some, it was bleeding though her little sweater. The bandages that had been wrapped around the wounded arm had loosened and were torn and dirtied. The little raccoon didn't know how to keep the injury safe, after her parents death, she had just woken up with the bandages around the wound, she never put them their herself, and with all the running, searching, and hideing the little girl did, well the old wrappings weren't holding up real well.



After a little while, the small girls curiosity got the better of her. The little raccoon poked her tiny head out of the little hideing spot, just slightly. Not knowing what was out there. She let out a small yelp like squeak when she sawZi's figure, she ducked into the hideing spot again slightly, but poked her head out a litlte bit again, her ears twitching "h..h...h...hello...." she said fearfully. Her voice stammering from her fear. She was scared so easilly.

[Genshuku]

The little girl had poked her head out, which of course got Zi's attention. She turned to face the girl, now noticing the fact she looked (based on her own age/appearance, she already knew age isn't always what it appears to be, though in her case it's more of a reversal) rather young. In any case, she had shown herself, and she looked...scared. Of course, Zi could sympathize. Zi herself was only a few days old, and she had already been used by a bunch of people and upon being freed by others (who had left without knowing where she went) was pretty much left for dead. But, there seemed to be no problem, besides the fact that the girl...was bleeding. Zi would have been happy to help give energy to her to help her recover......wait....maybe she should anyway...
...No, that just isn't going to happen. Zi was in an emergency state, and she hed to get some form of energy. But, being in a new place, she just plain didn't know how.

Regardless, time to introduce herself.

"Zi--Hello..."

She caught herself trying to say Hello in her own language again, slightly too late. Would the girl act oddly?

Heck, is there even a way to get energy nearby?

Energy: 9%

[Little Sarah]

Sarah Squeaked very softly, and finally came out of the little hole completely. She was still shaking quite a bit, and clinging onto the stuffed rabbit toy tightly. Her ears flickered up some and she looked up at Zi "A..Are you okay?" Sarah asked, she tilted her head t to the side slightly, her tail wagged some, it was so fluffy it seemed to make a swishing noise as it did wag.

"W..Why did you say Zi first?" she didn't seem odd about it, the little girl just seemed to be curious was all. Her nose twitched some, and her ears flicked back. She smiled some. She was trying not to act as shy as she had been before. Though her ears seemed to flick back up again, and become more alert, just in case something came this way. She wanted to be ready to hide again if something did.

"Heh..I..I'm sorry for hiding first..." she yipped "I... I get really scared..w...when I don't know where I am..a..and I don't know whats out there..." she squeaked. "a..and I don't like fighting..s..so I hide with Usagi.." she showed the stuffed bunny toy that looked very old and tattered. One of the stuffed Rabbits eyes were missing as well.

"S..So..w..who are y..you..w..whats your name?" she asked softly" I..I'm just curious..."

[Genshuku]

Oh she just had to ask why she said Zi. It would be nice if she didn't have to socialize while being unable to speak in order to speak. But, she did. In response, she gave her answer, or rather, an indirect one:

"Zi..."

And she then spoke about her fears...well, as least she had someone, a reason to be lost, something to look for. And at that thought, Zi gave out a somewhat depressed sigh. And then, of course, she asked for her name. Well...oh boy. Hopefully she'll get the hint here: she's Zi. So with a small shrug:

"Zi."

Hopefully, she got that her name was Zi, she could only say Zi unless she understands

(The Scout: Big forest, big forest...Ehh--)

(Kaosu: The bored one wishes to speak.)
(Ozma: Of course. Can't really deny you there.)
(Kaosu: What's the forest like?)
(Ozma: Rather peaceful from what I can see.)
(Kaosu: And no hungry man-eating plants? What kind of forest is that...)
(Ozma: ...Something tells me, far away, we just got our scout in a difficult situation. Let us not tempt fate again. It always ends badly. *sigh*)

[Little Sarah]

Sarah tilted her head" O..Oh! I..I get it!" she wagged her tail a little bit. Little Sarah got that maybe this person couldn't speak, or at least not speak much. She fidgeted a little bit and she looked around a little bit. Her tail swished some as she wagged and giggled. She hopped up a little bit.

"O..Oh..y..your names Zi?" she asked tilting her little head, she giggled a little bit "W..well Its nice to meet you miss Zi " she bowed in a respectful way. She always did that, her mom taught her that. She was a very respectful little youkai.

"M..My name is Sarah.. S..Sarah Gessari" she smiled again. "A..and this is Usagi!" she showed her the stuffed toy that she had been holding onto for dear life.

[Genshuku]

Well that's nice, she got the message! Zi similed, at least she could somewhat communicate with the girl. And she even got the other one, Zi nodded in reply, as she could do gestures such as that with no problem, somehow understanding those quite well. She too bowed, as she had done so and is was a sign of respect, after all. Zi was feeling better now, and even gave a small wave to the stuffed animal.

...Oh, the energy problem. She forgot to do a mental check, and it was already 6% when she did. One more, and she knew she was going into standby, she liked it or not, in order to save energy. So, Zi began to feel slightly faint, negating the happy that was inside her. Well, it seems she didn't find it in time...though now that she met this person, perhaps she might accidentally do the right thing?

The faintness showed.

[Little Sarah]

Sarah squeaked "A..are you okay m...miss Zi?" Sarah asked in a concerned way "W...wahts a matter..y..you look really tired.." Her ears twitched back against her head. The small child demon seemed really concerned about this new person she had just met. She squeaked some.

She started to look around as if in a panic again. "i..I will try to find something to hlep..O..Oaky.." she squeaked. She didn't know what or how to help. She was looking around in all directions. "Umm...Umm....w..what ...waht do I do..." her hurt arm was shaking again but she shook her head and ignored that it was hurting once more.

She wished she knew what was the matter, the worry was making her little chest hurt. she sighed some "a..as long as nothing scared me..e..evreything will be okay..n..nothing startle me.." she spoke to herself quietly, the last thing the little Youkai needed was to make something explode when she was trying to help.

[Genshuku]

(Kaosu: So, what's the scout's status? Not being chased by a mob of angry faeries I hope~ And hopefully not running into any demons anytime soon...)
(Ozma: What am I going to do with you...really, what am I going to do with you...oh, if your going to be like that, at least do it for something that isn't bad for us...)
(Kaosu: And I REALLY hope the scout does not run into the robot~)
(Ozma: Thank you.)

Of course, when one wants no distractions, they show by the dozen. It's almost like an unwritten law, but never do they come in a shape like this one: What looked like an unside down flying giant Venus Fly Trap making muffled screaming noises came from some bushes. (The scout, invisible, with a venus fly trap on her head.)

...What in the heck.

This was followed by a mob of angry faeries slightly behind the odd newcomer, and who knows what they were angry about. After all, they tend to get angry over the simplest things, such as being an upside down Venus Fly Trap seemingly flying around.

Now if anything could wake up Zi on a low energy level, it's this sight. But, as the odd sight was running at her, and she lacked the energy to move, it crashed into her. The Venus Fly Trap flew off in the distance, far enough away where one would not be able to examine them without moving a considerable distance. And Zi was knocked down, though mostly uninjured, just still tired. The scout was knocked on the ground, still invisible (for now)

Of course, a reaction to this would have happened by now, right?

[Little Sarah]

Little Sarah yelped, seeing this sight started her enough, that a bright glow come from her neck, where her necklace was. Sarah yelped" O..Oh no!" she yelped and quickly put her hand over her chest, as a glow started to happen from her chest near her heart, she winced a little bit.

" I..Its happening again...nono..." she whimpered. it was obvious the little demon didn't like for this to happen. She didn't like loosing control of the power she had, but in truth she was way to little to even control it, epically when she was scared. she whimpered some and kept her hand clenched on her chest, holding back.

but as soon as she saw Zi get hit into, her focus broke " MISS ZI!" she yelped un-clutching her chest and running to her. as soon as she did, the glow coming from that area, surrounded her. She winced more, it seemed to hurt her some to do some. the same glow that came from her, was suddenly a bolder near them seamed to glow the same color as the little raccoon, and without a second notice the rock shattered, making the little raccoon cry out and jump back some.

Now the bolder wasn't huge, it was a nice size, but it wasn't a giant one. and it was far enough away not to cause damage to Zi and Sarah.

Sarah whimpered like she was going to start crying when this happened"I..I'm sorry..I'm sorry.." she held her little head, the glow seemed to dissipate to the point except for her necklace, which continued to glow slightly" I..I'm sorry...w..when I'm scared..o..or worried..I..I cant control it..I..I'm sorry..I'm sorry.." she seemed to apologize allot. She was just worried she might of hurt something or someone.


She whimpered and held he little head, holding onto her stuffed bunny.

[Genshuku]

(Ozma: ...So, should I check to see where our scout is? It is your device, so I do have to ask...)
(Kaosu: Yes, do so.)
...
(Ozma: ...The scout found the robot, a demon, and is currently unconscious. Something tells me that one of the reasons is that a hungry plant probably latched to her head. And the robot is knocked down, probably because the scout ran into it...I hate you. Just letting you know.)
(Kaosu: I know~)
(Ozma: And guess what, we don't have a teleporter there.
(Kaosu: I'll get one there then. Complete with a sample force of 50 faeries, and a small mech to transport. And capture the robot if it sticks around, but with that demon there--)
(Ozma: Which is entirely your fault.)
(Kaosu: It would be hard to nab her without a witness. And I don't like having those around...)
(Ozma: You do realize she looks like she's 5, right? And she looks helpless, and being a demon one would associate it with mischievousness? And that no one would believe that she was serious.)
(Kaosu: The robot was built with the system anyway. Just in case.)
(Ozma: Rrriiiggghhhttt.)
(Kaosu: Shut up~)

Zi had finally reached almost reached 5% (5.00123%) when something odd happened. The cloak that the scout was using decided to malfunction, and it not only turned off, but partly broke, leaving a small shower of electrical sparks (which even looked harmless for the most part) flying in Zi's direction.

Well, there's that energy. Slightly out of the way, but still there.

Zi slowly woke up from the almost comatose state, gaining energy slowly again. She had almost missed what Sarah said, though the exploding boulder was clear enough. Zi brushed herself off, no doubt there was a small amount of dust and possibly a pebble or two, and listened to what Sarah had to say.

Well, she had a power that she could not control. Zi felt sorry for the girl more than herself now (now that she was back at a healthyish 30%) and solemnly nodded and spoke, though of course it would not be understood directly, perhaps indirectly...

"Zi..."

Strangely, Zi paid no attention to the scout that had become visible, but perhaps this was more important...

Now, if one was a raccoon demon, they certainly would have an enhanced smell, right? If I am, then note: Zi does not smell like a human (or anything living at all), the smell of the person is notably absent, and the slightest smell of carbon dioxide could be detected, though it would be VERY hard to sniff that out.

Elsewhere:

(Rika: The Forest of Magic...dangerous place, though with my revamped Flower Tank, I can drive around with ease~ Eh? Loud explosion...well, there's only one way to find Reimu, and that's by going wherever things like that occur. So...FULL SPEED AHEAD~)

[Little Sarah]

Sarah rubbed her little chest, happy that the power had gone down some "I...It hurt that time..b..but its hurt worse before.." she was speaking more to herself then anything else. She shook her head a little bit. She put her hand under her necklace and looked at the little purple gem that was in the middle of it, touching it lightly, ears twitching more "w..wonder why this hasn't stopped its glowing yet tough...."

She looked at Zi "heh..I..I don't understand my power much..." her ears twitched again, sighing a little bit "M..M....My big brother w..wouldnt tell me w..what ..o..or why I keep making things like that happen..I..I can't help it..I..I wish I could..I..I don't like hurting things... I don't wonna hurt anything..o..or anyone..." her ears went down sadly "A..And...And its hard t...to go to a human villiage..e..even if I am just trying to look for my big brother..a..and not being able to control things...c..cause humans don't like demons......and..and sometimes they try and hurt or scare me..a..and I loose control of the power again.. I...I don't want that to happen.... I just wanna find my big brother...a..and I want everything to be okay... I don't want hurting to go on no more..."

She shook it out of her mind and scampered over to Zi, sitting down near her and looking up at her" A..are you okay now?" she asked, still really worried about her. Sarah considered her a friend, even if she just met her not to long ago " I...I was really worried..."

She stopped, seeing the scout not, she jumped back a little bit before scampering and kinda hiding behind Zi "W..W..W....Whats that?!" she asked in a scared way, her little nose twitched some" Its making lots of fiery sparky sparks.." her tail twitched some.

[Genshuku]

(Rika: It's a good thing I made this faster...really, before, it would have taken AGES...)

(Kaosu: Told you the cloak was bugged.)
(Ozma: Too late.
(Kaosu: Let's just hope tha--)
(Ozma: Shut up.)
(Kaosu: ...Oh, fine. Ugh...)

The scout got up, the destroyed cloaking device still intact, and took a few quick glances around. She seemed to have a black uniform-like garment on, resembling that of someone Zi had seen recently: the same style that the pilot that had captured her had used! Zi became frightened at the very sight of this person, no doubt equipped with the gear to capture her again, which is the very last thing she wants. She also feared for Sarah as well, as these types of people were abnormally cruel...the scout spoke:

"Ugh, that was...weird...eh, my cloak! And...the robot we were looking for! And something else...well, she glows, so she might be interesting as well...wait, am I saying this out loud...oh dear. Well, it shouldn't matter, because I have a wondrous supply of these!"

She pulled out a weird looking ball out of one of her pockets, and quickly threw it at Zi. Zi, knowing that the person was going to do something, ducked just in time to dodge it. When it hit the ground, a strange black electrical net expanded in a spherical shape, see-through and with bars like a gridded cage. Zi knew this was the last electrical thing she wanted to touch when she looked back.

"Oh well, I got more~"

Cruel, and effective. And on top of that, it sounded like she wasn't done after Zi...

(Rika: ...Hmm...I can hear voices...)

The smell of carbon dioxide has become somewhat stronger.

[Little Sarah]

Sarah Squeaked some " Z...ZI!" she went over to her, happy that her friend had dodged it and hugged onto her, whimpering at the net, it was scary looking.

She yelped again. and their was a little popping noise in the tree and a small branch fell, she grumbled some, then looked at the scout " STOP IT!" she snapped a little bit "I...I cant control my power..y..your gonna make me make things go boom! I don't wanna make things go boom!" she whimpered some ,the net was the thing that scared her, the little demons ears trembled back and was clinging to Zi slightly.

The fact the net had been thrown at Zi though, made the little youkai a bit angry, she let out a tiny pathetic sounding growl "Y..you leave Zi alone!" She snapped, her little voice not one of the most intimidating things in the world. infact... it was more cute then frightening. even when the poor runt was trying to act tough , she just ended up looking like a pathetic adorable ball of fluff. "L..Leave Zi alone now.." she was riled up "grrrrrrr..RAWR!" she tried to let out a more intimidating growl but all it came out as was that little rawr that seemed to have a kinda squeak at the end.

Her little nose twitched though, smelling the carbon, the little raccoon demon covered her nose and let out a little squeak. "w..what else is coming?"
