The time passed, and others joined in the conversation of what they, as the Merged, should do about the situation. From what Claire knew of her parents' pasts, this was something done in their own times as well. There was a phrase the humans had that fit this situation. 'History repeats itself.' Claire wanted nothing to do with this idiocy, so she decided to just return to the real realm. Back to people that call her their friend. Back to a place where she could actually DO something, instead of listen and contribute to a debater hat could go on and on until the last human is no longer alive. Claire let out a soft sigh of frustration, before saying to her sister, "I knew I shouldn't have come. Seeya later, Yuki." "Claire, wai-" In an instant, Claire was gone. Yuki sighed. Her half-sister had ways been a bit stubborn, but she didn't think that attending one of these meetings would stress her out so much. For now, she'd have to speak for both herself and Claire, at least for a little while. She'd have to return as well. ... Claire reappeared on the Earth, in the guise of a human. She didn't know anything big about magic and science. She presided over the Dusk and music. Still, because she presided over such things, she was more connected to the spirits of humans. She even lived among them, and befriended them. Hell, she was 'trying to survive' with a small group of others. She and Yuki had used 'going out on a food run' as an excuse to attend the meeting, as such, Claire made sure to arrive at a grocery store. The place was left in a messy state, as other humans no doubt attempted to take as much as they could. What was left was mostly spoiled, and inedible. The best she could salvage from the place were a bunch of chips and things that could really only be considered as snacks. Still, it was better than nothing for those she was getting them for. The zombies on her way back was nothing she was afraid of, though she had to restrict herself to using weapons instead of powers, in case someone was around. She did return to her friends, and told them that her sister was still out looking for water. One would wonder why Claire preferred doing things like this, rather than attend a meeting that sought a conclusion. Her reason was that the outcome would take forever to come along, and that she preferred to attempt to save those she could, rather than let them die.
