1st Code [Action] [Warning for Fate/Extra spoilers in comments!]

[doesnotgetit]

[Action - 505 Ricardo Street]

[Hakuno practically jumps out of bed when the alarms blare out across town. Alarm floods her first... but then, confusion. It seemed like just a second ago that, with adrenaline still pumping through her after the final battle, she had reached out, fingertips an inch away from the the Moon Cell...

... And then she woke up here. But... where was here? Was this some other construction by the Moon Cell?

Only one way to find out! She slid out of bed, exiting the room and looking around. Is this... someone else's house?]

Hello? Is anybody here?

[Action - Outside]

[Some time later, Hakuno is dressed and outside, looking up at the midnight sky, inky-black and dotted with stars.]

Huh... I almost forgot what this looked like... [Her voice doesn't sound wistful or contemplative of anything like that... she's simply stating a fact. She was so used to the strange digital sky surrounding the school, or the harsh artificial sun of the various levels of the arena. But this... this was different.] ... Considering everything, though, I guess that doesn't really mean much.

[thegoddamnhedgehog]

[Someone is here. And they make their presence known by teleporting just behind you.

Alarms blaring, and the arrival of someone new...? Shadow doesn't trust it.]

action;

[gandere]

You know, it's rather poor to talk to yourself when there's plenty of idiots here you can speak with instead.

[ Twintails: check.
Obnoxiously short skirt: check.
Prissy attitude: always check. ]

[doesnotgetit]

[She doesn't miss the unmistakable prickling at the back of her neck signaling someone showing up behind her. She whips around, expecting another enemy - some freaky new twist to a war she should have won - only to see...

... something small and furry.]

... What the heck is this thing?

action; outside

[sara_mudou]

[Sara had been awoken by the alarm like everyone else but after realizing it was coming from the dairy, had elected not to go down and check it out herself. So she was simply wandering through the streets, intending to get back home, when she happened to run across a girl she didn't recognize. Saying something odd...]


Forgot what what looks like?
\
[Rude to interrupt, maybe, but surely this girl couldn't have forgotten the sky, could she?]

action;

[doesnotgetit]

[Hakuno freezes, almost too scared to turn around. But turn she does, and...] ... Rin?

[It's really her. In full tsundere attitude, alive and right in front of her and oh god there are tears in her eyes.]

Rin! [Suddenly she is RUNNING TOWARDS RIN. And slams into her. And is now hugging her.] You're alive! I... I never thought I'd see you again!

action; outside

[doesnotgetit]

The sky. [Again, she doesn't seem to realize just how strange this may sound to some people.] It looks a lot different from what I'm used to.

action; outside

[sara_mudou]

Huh? What do you mean? What does it normally look like to you? [It does sound strange! Maybe she's from another planet or something? Some people in Mayfield are...]

action;

[gandere]

[ Ah, another person crying in the presence of Rin Tohsaka. Really, it's not even worth bragging about anymore. Instead, she'll stand there with a smug look on her face, just waiting.

Waiting.

Yes, she's most definitely waiting for something.

Wait... what? Why does the strange girl that Rin's never seen before in her life not only know her name, but calls her that over her family name? AND OH GOD WHY IS SHE HUGGING HER!? There's a stumble, but balancing her feet as well as grabbing a hold of her keeps the pair from falling over. ]

Wha-? [ Weird girl all up in her space bubble what do? ] You lost me.

action; outside

[doesnotgetit]

[... She's not too far off the mark, actually.] It's kind of weird, actually. I can't really describe it.

... If I had to think of one word, though, it'd be "digital". You can see ones and zeros and stuff all the way across the sky.

[riastrad_ridire]

...You alright, kid?

[Remember this guy? Because he's in civilian clothes looking up at the sky to see what the hell you might be staring at, Hakuno.]

The hell's so interesting up there?

action;

[doesnotgetit]

... Huh? [... On one hand, considering Rin's attitude, Hakuno should be dancing for joy over the fact that she was not hit or getting her head yelled off for hugging her. but... she's just confused, now.] You... don't you remember what happened? [Says the amnesiac.]

And how are you even alive!? You... I saw you...

[doesnotgetit]

[Oh crap it's that guy oh crap enemy Servant.

... But he's Rin's Servant, so... no problem, right? Right! Except for the fact that he should be dead as well.]

... You're here too?

[riastrad_ridire]

[As it happens, she's still right about that much. Go figure.]

Hm? Do I know you or something?

[doesnotgetit]

Wha... of course! I mean... [Ugh wow this is confusing.] I don't know you very well, but... you're Rin's Servant. Of course I know you.

action;

[gandere]

[ Don't remember what happened? She doesn't even know the girl before her. Taking in her lower lip into her mouth to bite it, she'll attempt to pull away from her to the best of her ability. ]

You saw what? [ Just as she did with Bazett, she's going to play up the role as well as she can until she gets the information she wants. ] Well, come on. Don't keep me waiting in suspense or else I'll beat it out of you.

[riastrad_ridire]

...really? Funny you should say that, I don't think I've ever seen you before. And I think I'd remember a cute girl like you.

action;

[doesnotgetit]

[Hakuno... actually laughs at that. She never thought she'd miss verbal abuse like that, but it's just so like Rin that she can't help it.

The mood lift doesn't last long, though, and she frowns, letting Rin push her away.]

I thought... no. I know you died. I... [The frown deepens, and she looks down at her hands. Even though she wasn't the one to strike the finishing blow... it still felt like she did.] We defeated you. You disappeared. So how are you here?

action;

[gandere]

[ What a strange person to laugh when she threatens to kill them. Rin does take note of it, but there were more pressing matters to hold her attention. A quick analysis of the situation leaves her with more questions than answers to work with. If the girl before her defeated her along with other parties (hence the 'we'), then she must be an enemy.

Strange of an enemy to hug her. Hell, most of Rin's allies wouldn't dare hug her unless they had thick enough armor to take a beating in (like the Space Marine Garviel) or they secretly enjoyed the pain (like the Dumbass Lancer). It leaves her with very little to work with, but-- ]

Did you really think you could defeat me? Honestly, I'm within the top percentile after all. [ It couldn't be that far off from the truth. ] I suppose that means you owe me a rematch if you're to properly finish the job and all.

action;

[doesnotgetit]

Wha-- No! I don't want to fight you again. [It was hard enough the first time. She's not sure if she could go through it again.] I didn't want to fight you in the first place...

[Yeah she's... really upset over that thought. WAT DO.]

action;

[gandere]

Geez, you're going to make me feel bad about all of this.

[ SPOILER MAYFIELD: Rin Tohsaka actually does have a heart somewhere in there. ]

Come on, it's too cold to stand outside for this kind of conversation.

[doesnotgetit]

[She flushes a little at the flirting attempt, but being who she is, ignores it.]

But I'm sure I know you. You're a Lancer-class Servant... I know your true name. [And because Hakuno thinks this might be some sick twist to the Grail War, she's considerate enough not to say it out loud.] Is this some kinda glitch or something... [The last bit is muttered, mostly to herself, but it could still be heard.]

[riastrad_ridire]

I never said you didn't know me, kid. I've seen enough parallel universe shit around here to believe you probably do. Besides, at this point I'm pretty sure everybody here knows who the hell I am.

What's your name? And how'd you know whose Servant I am here?

action;

[doesnotgetit]

[Hakuno has avoided physical punishment for hugging Rin Tohsaka and even got to see her deredere side, all within the span of a few minutes. If this had been any other time, she'd probably be in awe of how lucky she was right now.]

... Yeah, it is. Um, I woke up in a house right over there...

[Action - Outside]

[enpatsushakugannouchite]

What exactly did you expect? [ Asks a smug-looking little girl that is mostly hair. ]

[doesnotgetit]

Parallel universes, huh... [That would explain a lot. And after everything she's seen, it doesn't seem like too much of a stretch. But still...]

I'm Hakuno Kishinami. I was a Master in the Holy Grail War... that's where I met you and Rin.
