001- [Action+Phone]- Mayfield is no place for kids. Not even vampiric ones.....

[sandboxscience]

[So, Hanabusa arrived in Mayfield early in the morning, just like everyone does. But he's on a nocturnal schedule, so he just rolled over and slept right through all that. In fact, he doesn't actually roll out of bed until the afternoon. And it's then that he finally notices that something is wrong. Very wrong. He's in an unfamiliar room, in an

[After a few moments of silence, a quiet, monotone voice will sound into the boy's ear.]

I have collected a significant amount of information concerning this town. However, it may be more desirable to speak with another.

[sandboxscience]

Why? If you have all the information, then why should I bother asking someone else?

[bogusmagicker]

[Yuki doesn't bother to explain.]

...Then, inquire freely.

[sandboxscience]

Okay, first of all, why hasn't anyone figured out a way out of here yet? What's keeping us here?

Second, is that droning thing done with magic or technology?

Third, is anyone in town doing research on it?

[He pauses.]

And I guess you should tell me your name. In case I have other questions later.

[sandboxscience]

You.... you know my father? Who are you?

[For the first time, hope. Someone who knows him is definitely a good sign.]

[sandboxscience]

Lady Kuran?

Oh, umm....

[Should he apologize for being a total jerk to her son?]

Wh- what are you doing here?

[Nah, let's just hope she forgot.]

[ There is a blue sedan sitting on the driveway, and it seems to... perk when Hanabusa comes out of the house, rising slightly on its chassis out of curiosity.

There had been two drone kids on the house yesterday, he was almost positive. ]

Re: [ action ]

[sandboxscience]

[He stops. Did that car just move?]

Hmm....

[approaching the suspicious car carefully, standing on his toes to try to see inside the window.]

[electrowhipit]

[ The car is empty! He's half-considering not saying anything- he doesn't want to scare the poor kid. ]

Re: phone

[sandboxscience]

Well, I guess anything you do know might be helpful. And the rest I can figure out on my own.

[He's kind of a brat, so don't worry too much.]

Do you know why we're being kept here?

Re: phone

[sandboxscience]

Dangerous how? Are there guards? Will I get attacked if I break the rules?

[This kid will never run out of questions. Ever.]

Perfect families? What do you mean by that?

[crazyclownwoman]

[In the living room, on her stomach, flipping through the newspaper and drawing moustaches on peoples faces. Not dressed as a clown at the moment, just shorts and a t-shirt.]

[sandboxscience]

[Just..... peeking around a corner, trying to gauge the distance between himself and the front door. Maybe he can sneak by her....]

[crazyclownwoman]

[Dum de dum. Hint: No you can't. She looks up.

And there is a kid looking around the corner. She just see's the blonde.]

Lucas? That you?

[sandboxscience]

[He flinches, considering ducking back around the corner. But he doesn't want to seem like a coward, and it's better to face an opponent head on.]

No. Can't you even keep track of the kids you've kidnapped?

[He's trying very hard to keep his voice even, and not let on how completely terrified he is.]
