[Haruhi is sitting outside her apartment building in the cold and rain, clinging to her stuffed toy. She doesn't seem to to notice any people who walk by and stare; her eyes remain focused on the ground]

[makes no sign she even heard]

[childoflorelei]

[you...might not know it's Axel; he's wearing at least two raincoats and a poncho, marching through the rain; he stops as soon as he sees her]

Hey, what're you doing out here?

[innocent_games]

[sniffles and clings to Sammi harder]

[kneels beside her, a hand going to her shoulder]

You didn't get lost again, did you?

[innocent_games]

[sniffles and shakes her head]

I don't wanna get kidnapped again.

Hey~! [Kairi comes armed with an umbrella, digging in her heels so she's not bowled over by the wind. Holding the umbrella so it shields Haruhi, she smiles, her voiced raised so it can be heard over the storm.]

If you stay out here like this, you'll get sick! That's not very good, you know?

[innocent_games]

[cowers away from the girl she doesn't know, sorry Kairi ):]

[oceanspromise]

It's okay, I'm not gonna hurt you. [She crouches, still trying to keep Haruhi covered with the umbrella.]

Aren't you cold? I know I am, and your friend looks a little soggy. [She smiles, trying to be reassuring.]

[innocent_games]

If I go inside, the bad people will find me.

[discardedwish]
