There was always the chance she wouldn't recognize someone from her world even if she did meet them, and Nova thought that was probably worse than not meeting them at all.
During the elevator ride, Nova had been checking their rations pack to make sure everything was in order, and she reshouldered the bag as the door opened and they stepped out into the Wilderness. "It looks awfully lonely down here," she commented, casting her eyes about the area.

"Edensphere's all right," she said. "Weird, but it's not a terrible place to live." They had farms, sturdy houses, running water and many other machines that had seemed completely new to Cara when she'd first arrived there.
She looked the man up and down curiously before giving him a friendly smile. "What's your name? I'm Cara."

"We just came down to explore the area," she added, though that was probably obvious. She and Cara probably looked like proper tourists in this world.

She had sort of slipped out of the house. She didn't know why, because she had the right to come and go as she pleased, but she had a feeling that neji and the others were keeping a silent, if vigilant watch on her, which was understandable in a way. She didn't want to worry them.
Everyone had been talking about this elevator, and Hinata headed that way, activating her Byakugan as she got closer. The chakra concentrated around her eyes, making the veins around them stand out in sharp relief.
Sje'd barely started to examine it when the thing moved, provoking a start and a soft exclamation of surprise. And then, people came out. Hinata blinked, Byakugan still engaged. There was no where to hide anyway, and those people were probably as confused as she was.
"H-Hello ?"

"Are you all right?" Nova asked, noticing that the girl looked as startled as she was, if not more so. She seemed friendly, though, so Nova took a step forward and smiled reassuringly. "I'm Nova. What's your name?"

Well, she hoped not. She gave the strange girl a friendly smile. "And I'm Cara--we're from up in Edensphere," she said. "You must live here, right?"

There was really nothing the Byakugan could detect here, and Hinata released it, the veins disappearing and her eyes now their normal, completely white color again.
"I'm Hyuuga Hinata," she said, bowing her head slightly.
She'd been warned about giving names, but she was sure she didn't know any of these people, so her name would probably mean nothing to them and not hurt them.
"I just arrived a few weeks ago. I ... I don't really know where I am myself, really. T-this Edensphere ... is it up in the elevator ?"
