"F***, no! Baaaaaacooooon!" Naria guiltlessly turns away from where the Nobodies are fighting and throws herself to catch the bacon. She misses completely, but cushions the meat's descent with her back. "Ow. At least it's okay."
She picks up the bags and walks back towards the Garden. "I'm gonna go make sure this food is safe, okay? I trust you guys can handle the rest!"

Carson wakes up in shaking his head. His light blue hair shook a bit. "What... where am I?" He asks, getting up and wandering around. "I remember... I remember fighting these things..."
As if on cue, some Shadows appear in the alleyway he was currently in. Thinking fast, Carson shakes his shoulder to get his bow to his hand. Spinning, he grabs the keychain and pulls it as if it were an arrow, a magical light enveloping his hand. Letting loose, the arrow hits one of the things. It dissapates as a heart floats off.
"Right! Come on then! For the glory of Suzaku!" He says, taking them all down.
Afterwards, he puts the bow back where it was on his body, instead of having it dissapate. "Right. Now to find out where I am." With a nod and keeping a watch for any more of those things, Carson begins to look for someone to help him.
Eventually, he happens upon people fighting more... things. He quickly places his bow back in hand and shoots.
"Hey! You guys need help?" He says as he prepares another arrow, then fires it.

Cyprian's actions were finally able to provoke a reaction from Blair, and although that was obviously the intention behind it, the reaction almost certainly wasn't the one he was hoping for. A dangerous glint appeared in her eyes, and someone who didn't know better would have said she was angry judging by her expression. With one quick movement her lance disappeared and she summoned her keyblade, then struck Cyprian in the head with the hilt. As he fell to the ground, she finished off the remaining heartless and began walking away, keyblade still in hand.
"You lose."

"That was mean..." Cyprian whined as he got up. "And after all I did for you. I still beat boss though."

"Hey, you," Blair said as she stopped near the mysterious young archer, "Not many people are foolish or brave enough to fight heartless. I'm not sure which you are right now. But if you're as good with a bow as you apparently think you are, judging by your actions... The Empty House might have some work for you sometime if you're interested. Like seeing new places? Entirely new worlds? Anyway, I'll be keeping an eye out to see what you can really do."
Blair then started walking in the general direction of the local coffee shop, and without stopping or turning around she yelled back to Cyprian, "I'm bringing back coffee for everyone this morning. You want your usual order?", though her pace and the fact that she wasn't stopping to wait for an answer indicated that it wasn't really a question.

"Ask for two extra shots of espresso this time." Cyprian yawned as he looked at the new guy. "I hope boss doesn't give me another assignment so soon..."

Carson nods, slinging his bow back around his shoulder. "It's what a soldier does."
He puts a hand to his chin and thinks. "New worlds? Where even am I? Come to think of it... this doesn't look like any Suzaku towns. Maybe Genbu?" Shaking his head, he looks around. "The house? What house? What nation is it affilliated with?"

Cyprian raised an eyebrow at the newcomer.
"There aren't any nations here." He answered briefly.

"What?" Carson shook his head, almost unbelieving. "Okay, uh... This isn't Orience, is it? Then... where am I?"

"Traverse Town, where else?" Cyprian rolled his eyes, obviously as bored as a Nobody could be.

"Traverse Town?" Carson asks. "I am... unfamiliar with that name. Tell me then, what's the quickest way back? Ship? Or will I need a chocobo? Then again, if this isn't Orience then I'll need to find some other way. Hm..."
Carson was puzzled and confused. What happened to him while fatigue sapped his bones? Where on earth is Traverse Town? For that matter, who on earth is he even talking to?! It was this thought that snapped him out of it.
"Pardon me. I suppose I should ask the names of... well, the people I fought with. Where... did everybody go anyways?" Carson asked. If they were in enemy territory, it'd be better to get moving anyways .

"See that?" Cyprian pointed to a very large, gothic-style building covered in a stark grey coat of paint, though there where still some remnants of the previous color. "That's where the House is. Make sure you're cleared if you go on inside. Be warned, some of the Laity may freak you out a bit."

"Cleared for... what? Laity? I just... gah... WHERE THE HELL IS A BRIEFIBG ON THIS?!" He explodes, searching a device for any information. Of course, he finds nothing.
"Oh great, the tech doesn't work here. Fantaaaastic. Okay Carson. Time to do what a soldier is supposed to do: keep calm and ask questions to figure out the situation.
"Hey! How can I be cleared to go inside? I figure I might as well wait in there for answers."

"Speak to one of the Priests near the entrance." Cyprian tilted his head back as he sighed. "They can get you started."

Moran dashed back to the plaza and saw wet footprints forming. The water that had sprayed everywhere during his fight with the armor was still all over the place. Um...exactly as planned. Yeah.
A bow sprung from his left arm and he drew, arrows materializing in a burst of mimic magic. He fired on the invisible fleeing figure, which managed to dodge the first few, but was struck in the end. The arrow protruded from its invisible body, making it a bit easier to follow as it dashed around a corner. Moran swapped bow for lance and jumped high into the sky landing on the other side of the building the Stealth Soldier had dashed behind. He would have lost it, if not for the mailbox with a still swinging flap nearby.
The moment Moran managed to get to the underground post office, he saw the arrow diving towards a shadowy portal in the floor. No time to take aim, he called on his Blue Magic again and sprayed 1000 Needles towards his target. The puff of darkness and the dissipating heart gave him a sigh of relief. That's one less scout reporting in.
But at least that answers a few questions Moran had about the Heartless. There's something with a brain behind them after all. Which means that the Empty House ought to start getting more...proactive.
He turned to make his way back home.
The World that Never Was
A solitary arrow floated through the void, ignored by the teeming hordes of Heartless crawling through the nothingness.
But something human noticed it and picked it up.
"...Huh. Pointy."

"Okay, sure." Carson says, going over to one of them. "It would appear I need to be cleared? Carson, world of Orience, Suzaku Praetorium, class 1."
" Oh fantastic. Tell them aaaall about you." He thinks to himself.

Naria looks to the approaching archer with a blank stare, wondering why, of all times, some random human would choose to approach her. Class? Is he some kid on a field trip? And why bug me? Oh, right, all the Laity and whoever left when trouble started, aside from the ones Moran had around. Well, still, where're Cyprian and Blair? "Uh, yeah, just come on in. I suppose you can have some bacon if there's any left over. Don't touch any of the Nobodies, some of them don't react well."

"What in the name of l'cie are Nobodies?" Carson mutters to himself, entering the building. He looks around and lounges on a couch. "Guess for now I'm just on leave until I get some orders from... somebody. Okay, first note is to get information, then... then..."
He sighs. "Hoo boy."

After awaking, Mark rubbed his eyes. He covered his eyes as the sunlight entered the room, hurting his sensitive eyes. He took one look at his pajama's and sighed. He threw his legs over the side of the bed and allowe his feet to touch the wooden floor. It was fairly warm.
He wasn't sure how he was able to afford such a place. He had no parents or guardians, so it was strange that no one bothered him at all. He was only seventeen, so why was no one complaining?
He threw up the curtains on his window, staring at the early orange sun and the large clock tower in Twilight Town. He scratched his scalp, and entered the bathroom to get dressed.
----
Mark strolled through the streets of Twilight Town. Everyone was pretty much enjoying their summer break. Colin had went upstate to visit his grandparents, Tyra was probably working in her parents bakery.
And essentially, he was ' bored'. The Nobody shook hi head free of those thoughts. His thoughts turned to Salem. He clenched his fists. Every word was true. It was like a needle breaking the gentle skin of a human, but the pain was longer.
He allowed his bangs to shadow his eyes as he strolled down an alley; hands in his pocket.

Ripping open his way into the world, Jenka looks about. "So quiet... Why? Why is it so quiet?" Several Heartless follow him out, Black Ballades, Turquoise Marches, Red Nocturnes, Green Requiems, and Emerald Blues. They scatter about, swiftly causing havoc in the nearby areas of Twilight Town. "We need to... make some noise." With a motion, he summons Flare Notes and Bubble Beats atop the Clock Tower nearby, and they begin playing. A heavy bass resounds in the streets, shaking nearby windows, and Jenka begins stepping to the beat after descending. "This is good... This is heavy..."
