It was supposed to be simple, just walk strait for about six blocks through two neighborhoods. The Mexican merchant should have warned Ricardo about the second neighborhood. The streets here were laid out in anything other than 'blocks'. They would be better described as a maze, straight out of Venice, Italy. 

Just like Venice, there were merchants and buggers shouting out for attention. Except, the merchants were practically shoving their products onto people while the buggers did the same with their art work. The effects of it all were quite dizzying. 

When Ricardo finally escaped the madness, he found himself in some ancient Greek neighborhood, complete with toga wearing pedestrians. Spotting a stone bench, he decided to take a break. He looked quite pathetic as he sat there, curled over with his face in his hands, ppondering about how he could have arrived in this strange place.

"Hello Ricardo, you seem lost. May I be of assistance to you?" The man's voice sounded strange, like a person speaking through a microphone. Ricardo brought his face out of his hands and immediately sat up straight in surprise. Floating in front of him was a hologram of a man, just like in the movies. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to startle you. Can I be of assistance?"

Ricardo stuttered out his response, "Wha-, who are y-you?"

"My name is [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3343221]Adam[/url]. I am artificial intelligence program designed to help all inhabitants of this city. I notice you seem to be lost, may I assist you in finding your way?" If this was actually ancient Greece, the sight of a floating glowing man should have caused a panic. Instead, the people passing by would simply glance over with mild amusement. 

"Um, yes... I guess. I spoke with a man earlier about finding a place that has clothing I would like. He gave me directions, but I got lost." Ricardo felt weird talking to Adam, a feeling that would not subside anytime soon. 

"I have found your conversation with the merchant in my data banks. It seems your destination is quite a ways away from here. If you would like, I can lead the way."

"Y-yes. That would be helpful." Adam stood up slowly, uneasily. 

"Okay, follow me." 

Adam turned his holographic back to Ricardo and started gliding through the air, slowly. Ricardo followed closely behind, still dumbfound by what was happening. This place was getting weirder and weirder by the minute.
