First Whip

[flamingbronco]

Huh? Where am I?

This isn't my mansion. And this definitely isn't my bedroom either, since I don't remember needing more than one bed, or it being this small.

I can't get this odd watch thing off either, no matter how hard I pull- Ow!  Did it just...shock me?

This-This isn't Italy at all, is it?

Dino, Dino, Dino.

*He gives a small laugh*

You're here too huh?

[flamingbronco]

[Though he had heard he was here, it was still a welcome surprise to see his old tutor.]

Reborn-san! It's good to see you outside of any training or battles. [smiles in recognition.]

Yeah, though I'm not entirely sure how I ended up here.

[lesserxdays]

Believe me, I don't know how I got here either. I arrived here about two days ago.

It's good to see you too, Dino.

*Smiles happily*

How've you been? Hm?

[flamingbronco]

It's pretty strange. I wonder what the cause of all this really is.

Likewise! I've been well. Before I showed up here, I was getting back to working with the family and checking up on things since I had left.

[Smiles, remembering the old days.]

And you? How have you been?

[strike_for_you]

I don't know 'bout Italy, but I've got a feelin' this isn't England, either..

.. You have a mansion?

[flamingbronco]

It doesn't really seem like England either though.

I do, back home in Italy. It's a bit bigger than this place. [Maybe a bit too big. Dino couldn't count how many times he used to get lost in there. Even so, he misses it a little right now.]

[strike_for_you]

Unfortunately.

Bigger than this place? You must be pretty rich, then, because this place is huge from what I've seen. Some halls like, seem to go on forever!

[flamingbronco]

I just wish I knew where here was, honestly.

[A chuckle] Well, minus the never ending hallways, though they feel like that sometimes, but it is slightly bigger than this place. As for me being rich, well...something like that you could say.

[Because, although klutz that he was, he knew better than to go off and say something like 'Hi, I have a large mansion because I'm a mafia boss. And how are you?'.]

[strike typed, then deleted]

[karyuu_no_saiga]

Another person! Sure have been a lot for the past week...

I haven't been here too long, but - wait... Where's Italy?

[flamingbronco]

[And Dino meets yet another person! He really feels better know he's not the only one stuck here.]

I take it people don't usually show up very often around here?

[A bit of a smile crossed his face as he thought of his home.]

It's a peninsula shaped like a boot. It's in between Africa and Asia and south from England.

[All these thoughts about his home was making him hungry. Perhaps maybe later on he's head down to wherever the kitchen was to see what was available.]

[karyuu_no_saiga]

Oh! I think Lily was saying stuff about England. I dunno these places since I'm not from that world I guess.

[Natsu lets out a nice string of laughter at that.]

I've only been here for maybe a week. And there were zombies that were around when I was!

[flamingbronco]

[Well that was new for him to experience. First video games and now other worlds.]

You're from another world? What is it like?

[So far, Dino had been taking things in stride. People coming out of video games? Sure. People being from other planes and worlds? Confusing, but sure. But zombies? He could not fully wrap his mind around. Funny how the mind works.]

Zombies? Why were there zombies?

['Where did they even come from?' he wondered.]

[theskyinmyeyes]

Dino-san?
Ah, don't pull the device on your wrist! I don't think it'll come off that easy..

[flamingbronco]

[Surprise and a smile, happy to hear from the younger boy.]

Hey Tsuna!

I heard you were around here. It's good to hear from you!

[A bit of a groan, hid behind a chuckle.]

So I've found out. After pulling at this thing long enough, yeah. I think my wrist went a bit numb from all the shocks.

This house certainly is weird though. I don't understand much about it yet.

[Or if it's even possible to understand it all.]

[Strikes hackable.]

[exemperoralkaid]

I...I think so. Yeah.

The chaos gate can transport people like that, but I logged out and...than there was darkness. Again. Then I woke up in this weird place.

[flamingbronco]

I can definitely understand the shock then.

[Hearing the same thing from everyone he'd spoken to had begun to make him really wonder about the cause behind all of this.]

Seems to be that way for everyone, though I can't help wonder why that is. Could someone be behind all of this?
