[h3][color=chocolate][center]~Chieko Okawa~[/center][/color][/h3] It was a relatively quiet evening, and Chieko Okawa couldn't ask for a more peaceful, problem free day. She had gotten school over with, and had completed all her homework, chores, and even managed to squeeze in some exercise earlier that day. Granted, she wasn't the most athletically inclined, but she did like getting some light exercise in every now and then. She had to keep up her reputation as the all around best at everything, after all. It was about all she had as far as school goes. She even had a delicious warm cup of hot chocolate in her hands. A bit out of season to be sure, but chocolate trumped seasons. To top it all off? She managed to get an exclusive box set of her favorite anime - all the seasons, including a limited edition figurine. All she had to do was protect her precious cargo on her way home, get to kicking ass with her friends on that fancy new MMO, and all would be right with the world. So she started walking back to her house, making sure that her precious cargo wasn't going to be damaged by any unseen outside forces. Hopefully there wouldn't be any interruptions. There was sudden vibration in her pocket, bringing her out of her blissful thoughts. Who could possibly be calling her at this hour? And her hands were full, too. She sighed and stopped walking, somewhat annoyed but there wasn't much she could do about it. She slung the bag holding the goods over her shoulder as carefully as she could before reaching into her jacket pocket and pulling out a phone. The number was fairly familiar to her, though she had to wonder what in the name of god her little sister was doing calling her when she was going to be home in hopefully a few minutes. ...knowing her sister, she wanted her to buy her some food or something. [color=chocolate]"Sister."[/color] She said in a rather neutral, bored tone as she answered the phone. [b]"Chi-san!~"[/b] She answered rather happily. [b]"How's my favorite older sister doing?"[/b] [color=chocolate]"I'm your only older sister, Natsuki."[/color] She replied with a sigh. [color=chocolate]"And I've only been out of the house barely an hour. What do you want?"[/color] [b]"Aaahhh...as cold as ever~"[/b] She giggled. [b]"I just wanted my best and awesome older sister, Chi-san to buy me food."[/b] Chieko didn't emote at all, only staring blankly at the phone. She pondered hanging up, but that would be just downright rude and...well, that cutesy attitude tended to be quite effective in getting Natsuki what she wanted from Chieko. [color=chocolate]"I'm almost home. I'm not going anywhere to buy you food."[/color] [b]"Waaaah....Chinee-san wants me to starve."[/b] Her sister replied in the most adorable voice the fifteen year old could muster. Chinee-san? Honestly, dealing with her little sister was quite ridiculous at times. [color=chocolate]"If you think an adorable voice is enough for me to buy you food, then yes, you will starve you little glutton."[/color] Harsh? Maybe, but Chieko wasn't exactly one to mince words. [b]"Uwwwa~ Chiekonee-san called me a glutton. That's mean~"[/b] Though, her tone of voice was anything but upset. [b]"Come ooon ChiChi-neesan! If you do I'll promise I'll study!~" [/b] [color=chocolate]"...Fine."[/color] Chieko sighed, shaking her head slightly. [color=chocolate]"What do you want?"[/color] No response, just a dial tone. Was...was she just hung up on?! Well, that was just rude! Well fine! If she wanted to hang up on her she wouldn't buy her anything. She stuffed the phone back in her pocket and took a step forwards, heading back home. Fine then, She'd just go home and...go home...and...As she looked up from the phone, she realized something was horribly, horribly amiss. Even for the normally calm and stoic Chieko, this was something that even made her emote a little. Her eyes widened, grip on the beverage in her hand loosened, causing it to spill on the ground. [color=chocolate]"What?..."[/color] She was too busy trying to process what she was seeing to particularly care. More importantly, [i]where[/i] she was. Chieko was definitely not in the city. She was...somewhere else? The people here were dressed in odd clothing, not to mention something that made her Otaku anime nerd self almost explode from excitement. She'd recognize that soft fur and anywhere! That was something anyone of her expertise would recognize! Demi humans. She got the urge to want to pet one of their fluffy ears, but she restrained herself for now. That'd probably get her unwanted attention. Had she gotten high or something and was hallucinating? Did she pass out and was dreaming all of this? Maybe got killed and sent to another world? She was definitely not in her element here, and despite her calm outward expression she was internally trying to properly collect her thoughts about this situation. She was standing in the middle of some street. She didn't realize what was on the street, but a number of people were milling about as a low hum of conversation hung in the air. Tall buildings rose into the sky - some sort of Residential area or something? Seemed a bit too busy for that. ...well. She wasn't going to get any answers standing here, was she? She should get out of the middle of the street. So, she went with the flow of the crowd, walking as slowly as it would allow. Her hand tightened around the plastic bag, somewhat nervous as a number of potential issues popped up in her head.
