[what's this, DR? an actual new face? goodness gracious!

this new face looks rather nonplussed, and is attached to a pretty boy holding a cake box.]

Ah... this doesn't look like the bakery...

[sunlitflower]

Oh, I believe the bakery is down the street. Do you need some assistance?

[windinmysails]

Down the street? No way, I've worked there for years and I know the area! This doesn't look familiar at all.

[sunlitflower]

...Oh dear.

[windinmysails]

How did I get here, anyway... I definitely wasn't anyplace like this before...

[sunlitflower]

This place tends to steal people from their home realities, I'm afraid. No one is sure how it is capable of it, but it very much is.

I'm very sorry, but no one knows how to leave either.

[windinmysails]

... Are you telling me I've been kidnapped?

[sunlitflower]

Err, yes, in a manner of speaking.

[windinmysails]

That's ridiculous! I can't be-- I still have the bakery to think of! And the band!

[demondealergirl]

[Ah yes, it is a new face. Time to investigate]

No, but I can direct you to a lovely cafe if you'd like.

[windinmysails]

I guess that'd be a start... I can get my bearings from there. I'd really appreciate that, thank you.

[demondealergirl]

Follow me.

[She waves for him to follow]

So, what might you be called? I'm Gumi.

[windinmysails]

[f-following, okay]

Hokaze Natsuki.

[demondealergirl]

Ah... so I don't recognize the name either. Should I call you by Hokaze or Natsuki?

[She glances over her shoulder, back at him as she asks]

[windinmysails]

Natsuki's fine.

[demondealergirl]

Very well, Natsuki. It's a pleasure to meet your acquaintance.

[And they arrive at the Fifth Street Cafe.]

Does this place look at all familiar to you?

[windinmysails]

Not at all, unfortunately. It looks like a nice place, though.

[soundslikeheaven]

Ah, my dear Natsuki!

It does not, no.

[windinmysails]

[oh it's... haruto. y... ay]

Do you know what's going on, Haruto? I was just on my way to bring some cake to Kiyoteru...

[soundslikeheaven]

I don't know yet either, one moment. [brb golden cellphone]

[windinmysails]

[why is everything you own so gaudy!! and why can't I have a cell phone like that]

[soundslikeheaven]

[Ah. Well this is slightly awkward.]

...No signal.

[soundslikeheaven]

[snapping the phone shut]

I'm terribly sorry my dear but I believe I've been kidnapped. My sincere apologies that it's gotten you involved.

[windinmysails]

[don't mind that little eyelid twitch, it's just a reflex at this point]

So we've both been kidnapped.

[soundslikeheaven]

Maah, I suppose. As I said, I'm dreadfully sorry.

[windinmysails]

Don't be. Whatever's going on, it's not like you had any hand in it.

...If we've been kidnapped, do you think the rest of the band's here?
