Umi felt nervous seeing everyone awake and almost as confused as her. Some people were taking it better than others, namely the girls. The only guy here seemed quiet but frantic. It made sense though, if Umi was by herself she’d be pretty scared too. But with other people here she felt there was safety in numbers even if she didn’t recognize anyone. Only one girl told Umi her name though so she went over to her, Kanbaru.

[color=aqua]”I didn’t dream of cats. It’s fuzzy but if felt like... I was sinking into the ocean, and then I grabbed a sword. Everything became bright and now I’m here.”[/color] Umi’s memories of her dream was starting to fade with only major details like the sword being something she remembered. She looked to everyone else and seemed a bit calmer now. [color=aqua]”If... If what I think is right, I guess we all got a dream like that? It must have something to do with the Tower! I don’t know how or why we’re here but I guess we’re in this together now! Nice to meet you all!”[/color]

Suddenly a mysterious cloaked figure arrived, escorting the excited girl back down. Umi was immediately on the defensive, raising her arm instinctively. Unlike everyone else this person just appeared out of no where, so he wasn’t one of the many people who awoken. Probably. He said a lot of mysterious stuff, saying he liked Umi but had more negative comments about everyone else. She didn’t know how to feel about that.

He said a lot of confusing stuff afterwards, stuff that probably makes more sense if Umi knew more about the Tower. He gave Kanbaru a blank card, but before he could leave Umi stepped forward and tried to get his attention by grabbing his robe. [color=aqua]”Wait!”[/color] She tried to face the mystery man and speak face-to-face with him. She looked much more determined now. [color=aqua]”We aren’t the first ones here, right? And you know about our desires too. Then you must know where my friend is! Her name is Mamori Heiwajima, she has brown eyes and black hair. She was gone a month ago, she must have come here! How do I find her? How can I save her?”[/color]
