An itchy sort of feeling.

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

[Here in the garden room, Mama's taken the second-eldest out for a science lesson. Or... just to play in the dirt, because he's pretty sure that Rikka's hair is going to be full of it. He's watching the little boy carefully as he snacks on a few strawberries (his favorite!).

For the past week, though it's hard to explain, Sora's had a tiny seed of fear planted in his head. One of those unexplainable feelings that something's gone wrong. The kind that makes Ri think he's crazy. He reaches over and puts his hand over Rikka's forehead for what may be the tenth time, watching as the little boy jerks away, getting slightly annoyed. He's not sick, but why does he feel Rikka's Darkness flaring, and why is it so strong? Sora closes his eyes and feels, frustrated.]

*He clings on her and gives her sugar on the cheek. Sorry, his little overalls are covered in top soil. Hope you weren't wearing white, Nami :D;*

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

*Sora's eyes open, though they're still troubled.*

He's right here. How could something be wrong? Unless...

*He remembers Kai telling him there was an older version of Rikka during the future child spell, but that's been over with for months. Surely he isn't still here?*

[She always wears white. ^^; But, she doesn't mind. She can always get changed later.

And she's looking even more worried now.]

Sora?

[Tell her what's wroooooong!]

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

... this is going to sound crazy. But I can feel his signature. His Darkness. It's so strong, and it feels... panicked? I don't know.

*He looks so confused.*

He's right here, but the feeling that something's wrong won't go away.

*Laughs softly.*

I know I can't blame everything on being pregnant and crazy.

[runawaycrayon.livejournal.com]

[She'll just look more worried now. She remembers when she was younger, older Kira looking for Rikka. Now she's thinking it's connected. She wants to go look for him now.]

Hmm. I cant sense his darkness as well as you can, but, if it'll make you feel any better, I can go take a look around? If there's a double or older version of him or something around, I should be able to recognize the darkness enough to find him.

[It's not easy trying to help while hiding facts as well. She's not sure yet if Sora and Ri should know that older versions of their kids are running around.]

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

No. I... can't explain why, but I don't feel safe about you guys wandering around aimlessly. I already have the feeling something's happened.

*He smiles at Namine and Rikka, looking a little preoccupied. He just wants to protect her.*

[runawaycrayon.livejournal.com]

[That just makes her want to find him more now.

She wants to protect all of you as well. :<]

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

*Mama would be very upset if Namine went looking ;; He'll try and make her stay with him, or one of her protectors.*

[runawaycrayon.livejournal.com]

[But she wants to help her family! T_T]

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

*No worries, he will be asking her for help in the future! There is no wiggle room in this decision, Namine. If Sora has a bad enough feeling, he knows what this place is capable of, especially towards young boys and girls.*

... does this place have a basement?

[runawaycrayon.livejournal.com]

[She knows too. Which is why she wants to help and protect. :<]

Hm? Oh. I, think so?

[It has everything, right?]

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

How do I get there.

[runawaycrayon.livejournal.com]

[Worried frown.]

I'm not sure.

[Thinks for a moment.]

...I think it's a little further from the more populated areas, but I could be wrong.

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

... Namine. Kai told me a few months ago that my son and daughter... older versions of them were here. Did they go back?

[runawaycrayon.livejournal.com]

[...Hesitates a moment, wondering if she should tell him. But the hesitation itself should probably answer his question.]

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

*It does, and Namine might feel Sora tense dramatically, a misleading mask of calm washing over his face.*

Find Kira. She can't be alone. Take her and little Rikka to someone... Red, Riku-pi or Sorabug. Don't fail to make it to safety.

[runawaycrayon.livejournal.com]

[Bites her lip, worried, but nods.]

A-anything else?

[She can make a portal for him!]

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

*That would be helpful! That way Sora can navigate the corridors. Ri left in a hurry, but he can protect himself. There's a short flash as he summons his Keyblades, but offers her a little smile.*

Be good. And thank you.

[runawaycrayon.livejournal.com]

[...Concentrates, and opens a portal nearby.]

...I cant keep it open for a long time, but I hope this helps.

[This way she wont feel as useless. :<]

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

*He will slip through the portal, showing no hesitation, feeling his way through the pathways. bbl!*

[epic-adore.livejournal.com]

*Aaaaand Rikka starts bawling. Because Mama's gone, and that big black hole was scary and Mama disappeared into it. He's really screaming now, so hopefully Namine can calm the babby down.*

[runawaycrayon.livejournal.com]

[She's going to make soothing sounds, hugging him close to try to get him to calm down.]

It's okay Rikka. Mama will be back soon.

[She hopes. :<]

[epic-adore.livejournal.com]

*He clings, snotting all over her dress! He's still crying pretty hard.*

M-Mama... ! Where Mama?

[runawaycrayon.livejournal.com]

[Once again, she can get changed later. She does not mind getting her clothes dirty.]

Mama just had to go get some things done. It'll be alright.

[Um, okay. She has to find Kira as well. Sits Rikka on her hip as she moves to leave the room.]

[epic-adore.livejournal.com]

*He will ride along with her then, just leaning his head against her shoulder and sucking his thumb.*
