[ACTION]

[Young (5-9) Sonia Nevermind is standing obediently outside of the school, as if awaiting someone. Occasionally she rocks back and forth on her heels - and by the way, she is dressed incredibly elaborately. Like almost Disney princess ball-gown elaborate. She tilts her head, wondering what's taking so long. Dare you ask what she's waiting on?]

[VOICE]

[Sonia's mastered the phone at that age anyway, so she calmly states the following message.]

Is this the police? I would like to report my own kidnapping. I cannot name the assistants or give you a proper description , but it is of utmost importance that I be returned to my father and mother immediately. I await your correspondence.

[ .. Wow, this girl looks so pretty..

Don't mind the little kid standing a little distance away from you, Sonia. He looks fairly normal, at least, without the usual Leon hair (his hair is more a normal brown now and shaven shorter) but he's still positively gawking in Sonia's direction with her kind of dress. If his mouth opens any wider, his jaw will be on the floor. ]

[princesspool]

[She notices she's being stared at, and looks towards him. She smiles, as if having found her answer.

... Then she waves her arm around, yelling.]

KIDNAPPER! I'VE BEEN KIDNAPPED BY THIS PERSON!

[tsunball]

[ He doesn't get what's going on here at all. Leon quickly looks to the left and then to the right, like he's supposed to see said kidnapper, but there isn't anyone else around.. so he quickly runs towards her, actually looking a little scared himself. ]

T.. there's a kidnapper here?! Where?!

[princesspool]

Why, you're the kidnapper of course. You can't fool me! Mother and Father said kidnappers can come in any shape and size. So you're going to jail for a long time!

[All of which said matter-of-factly.]

[action]

[professionalbrat]

[There's a small boy spying on you, Sonia. He's trying not to be obvious, as he's peeking around a corner, but... well, he's pretty noticeable, honestly. Clearly no one's trained this kid in the art of stealth.

Also, he looks like he may have been crying, judging from the red around his eyes. Like, a lot.]

...

[Yeah, tiny Ishimaru is just going to keep on staring, sorry...]

[tsunball]

...

Wait.. I.. I'm the kidnapper?! But I didn't kidnap anyone.. I-- I wouldn't do that, that's a bad thing to do!

[ Pre-punk rock Leon.. not entirely pre-rule breaker Leon, but at least a little better. ]

[sleepybuster]

[As out of it and lost as he is, little Riki here can't help but notice the elegantly-dressed girl just standing outside of the school for so long... She looks like a princess. Maybe she knows where this is? After some awkward staring, he approaches her.]

...Um. Excuse me...

[princesspool]

You kidnapped me! You took me from the castle! So you're going to jail, unless you apologize and promise to never ever do it again!

[action]

[princesspool]

[Hmmm... it kind of seems unlike a kidnapper to cry. Unless those are tears of regret. So she's making her way over to him, and pulling out a hanky.]

Your face is all dirty.

[princesspool]

...Hm?

[Then she points at him, accusing him right away.]

Kidnapper!

[tsunball]

But I didn't do that at all..! I mean-- I would apologize, but it's not my fault so I don't have to!

[ .. wait, thinking about it, how did he get here..? ] I was kidnapped too, you know..!

[princesspool]

... Eh? You were? Really?

[She squints, not sure if she believes him.]

[action]

[professionalbrat]

...

[Oh god she approached him, what does he do now?!]

I... I'm really sorry about that! [He stares at the hanky dumbly for a moment, before he carefully takes it and wipes his face a little.]

[action]

[princesspool]

You really should conduct yourself better in front of your princess.

Now, why are you crying?

[action]

[professionalbrat]

Huh? ...Princess?

[Well, now he's just confused. The second part he can answer, at least.]

Um, well... I'm really lost and don't know how I got here and I don't know who I'm supposed to go to for help!

[He doesn't know the proper procedure here at all, it's horrible.]

[action]

[princesspool]

Why, you go to the police of course. And you don't go anywhere with strangers! Only a policeman!

[action]

[professionalbrat]

I know that! Th-That's what my parents always tell me too! But... I can't find the police here anywhere!

[tsunball]

Well, I don't remember being kidnapped, but I sure don't remember getting here either.. [ He pouts a little. ] My parents aren't even here.. I.. I mean-- not that I can't do things by myself..!!

[ Leon: the eight year old who already desperately wants to be cool. ]

[action]

[princesspool]

Then we must wait for the police to come to us.

[princesspool]

[She gives this some thought, but then decides to nod.]

If what you say is true, we still must find the police. We need to return home as soon as possible.

[tsunball]

Hmm.. [ The police..? He looks around to the left and to the right, but there doesn't seem to be anyone around who looks like a police officer.. ]

They're not here, but.. maybe we just need to look! [ He holds his hand out to Sonia. ] Wanna go look with me?

[action]

[professionalbrat]

Do you really think they'll come?

[He sounds so hopeful and oh god at this rate he's going to cry again, jeez this kid...]

W-What if they don't even know we're here?

[action]

[princesspool]

They'll know I'm here, or at least that I'm not home. When they find me, I'm sure they can find your parents.

[princesspool]

[She hesitates...]

... Don't you think you should introduce yourself first?

[because um excuse you SHE AIN'T TOUCHIN' NO COMMONER HAND RIGHT AWAY]

[tsunball]

[ WOW SONIA. Then again, he doesn't even know she's a real princess, he just figures she's one of those girls who likes to dress up in Disney princess dresses and all.. ]

Well.. my name's Leon. Nice to meet you..? [ A LITTLE HESITANT.. he's not too sure how to do formal introductions since he's not formal at all, even as a kid. ]
