1st Hatred - Welcome to Mayfield

[hell_wheel]

[Wanyudo wakes up. That's the first sign something is wrong.

The fact he is in a bed is the second.

Looking around, he closes his eyes and focuses on returning home. Nothing happens. He feels weird. Wrong. He can't return, though, and he can't change. Both of those things bother him and he sits up in bed and frowns. The room has pictures. Including him and a lovely young woman. Oh, and a couple of kids as well.

Moving from the bed, he goes to the closet, noting the clothes before picking out an outfit and snagging a classy hat. Well, he's dressed and his head is covered. The clothes fit at least.

This didn't look like Japan, so the next order of business was figuring out where. Walking over to the phone, picking it up and trying to dial information.]

[Phone | Everyone]

[An older man's voice comes over the phone.]

Hello? Information?

Hello?

Comments

[hell_wheel]

I'm sorry, I think I have the wrong number.

What number do you dial for information in this country?

[echoing_sutras]

But Kyouko has information~

[hell_wheel]

Very well.

Maybe you can tell me what country we are in, first?

[echoing_sutras]

The Americas! Or something like it, at least.

[hell_wheel]

[That is met with a bit of silence from the older man.

Eventually, he'll speak up.]

Thank you, that is helpful.

Kyouko, right? My name is Wanyūdō.

[echoing_sutras]

-... And that gets a bit of silence from her.-

It's nice to meet you, Wanyudo-san...

[hell_wheel]

[He assumes she just thinks his name is strange.]

It is nice to meet you.

What coast are we near?

[echoing_sutras]

I don't know...

[hell_wheel]

I suppose I could find a map.

What town are you in?

[Assuming it might not be the same one he is.]

[echoing_sutras]

Mayfield. All of us are in Mayfield. There is only one town and all of the people are in it. That town is Mayfield. So I'm in Mayfield, and so are you. Understand~

[hell_wheel]

Only one town?

What about outside of this town?

[echoing_sutras]

There is no outside.

[hell_wheel]

I can see the horizon from my window, what about there?

[echoing_sutras]

Someone with your name... should know that the eyes cannot always be trusted.

[hell_wheel]

Clever. I am pleased, though, you recognize it.

Who is responsible for this?

[Was he to be punished this time.]

[echoing_sutras]

Mm... Kyouko doesn't know. The angry men sometimes talk over the phone, though. And sometimes there's other people, like the crazy doctor lady.

[hell_wheel]

Then I'll have to listen.

How long have you been here Kyouko?

[echoing_sutras]

Not that long. Long enough to know what Kyouko knows, at least.

[hell_wheel]

Well then, is there anything else I should know of this place?

[echoing_sutras]

It's dangerous. More dangerous than anything Kyouko has ever experienced.

[hell_wheel]

Very well, I will have to see about that.

Is there a computer in this place?

[echoing_sutras]

... A what?

[hell_wheel]

Like a TV combined with a typewriter.

[echoing_sutras]

... A what?

[hell_wheel]

Maybe it would be easier to search for one.
