It was early morning and Kitalia was in no mood to be bothered by anyone except maybe Dominic or Harlan, but she doubted they had any idea that she was walking along the beach alone while it was snowing. She had dressed in a knee-length skirt that was starting to bother her as it was getting tangled about her legs by the wind, which was partially why she had worn jeans beneath it. She wore a light, off-the-shoulder sweater; the sleeves of which were long enough to cover her hands, and slip on shoes that were lined with faux fur. She was slightly cold, but she could deal with it. The mark on her shoulder was very visible against her fair skin, especially as her hair was pinned up with curls cascading down to the base of her neck.
Looking up at the sky, Kitalia stuck out her tongue to catch a few snowflakes before sighing. "I wish I knew my own feelings. I care for him, but yet I don't know the extent of my feelings. Why can't matters of the heart be easier?" She had known since the first time she had met Harlan when he had introduced himself as merely "Haku", that their fates were connected. But in what way, or ways, were they connected? Her grey eyes showed her question, but that was when she realized that someone was behind her. Turning around, she looked to see who it was...

Shippo still had thoughts about what had happened a few days ago when he met that girl. He still had many question and desired for answers. The snow felt oddly familiar. It felt...like home to him. Was his home planet covered in snow maybe? The falling snow hit his fur and clung to it. It was starting to cover up most of his body. His snake tail, however, hated snow. It was trying its best to his inside Shippo's pants for warmth. He walked on the snowy ground feeling odd feelings, like he knew he liked it, but didn't know why. As Shippo kept walking, he saw a figure he was approaching in the distance.

Kitalia felt apprehensive of the stranger she saw when she turned around and wished that she had been smarter and stayed at home or at least taken someone with her instead of being on her own. She had issues trusting people, especially people who had auras that she had never seen before. "Who are you? Why are you here?" She demanded sharply, wishing someone else were there.

"My name is Shippo," He began,"and as for why I am here...I don't know." He wished he knew why. This planet seemed odd and familiar at the same time but he couldn't tell why. Something was pulling him toward something but repeling him at the same time. Would he ever find out who he was or where he even came from.

"Kitalia Gem." A voice said from further down the beach, the snow slightly obscuring his short figure. "Indeed...miss Kitalia Gem." He repeated before letting out a content laugh and stopping suddenly. "I've wanted to speak with you for some time you know. But you know why if you think about it." He said as he watched her closely, ignoring the other man and concentrating on her.
He was short, probably only three feet and some odd inches tall. It was also obvious he wasn't human. His skin was a shade of blue and he wore a blue cloak, from the back of which protruded his tail, a large tail with orange fir covering the top. On his head he wore a purple hat with a star pattern and in his right hand he carried a large staff.
"Ah, I'm sure you have so many questions about my impromptu introduction don't you?" He queried as he watched her. "Well, that makes two of us who have questions miss Gem." He chuckled again as a mischievous smile spread across his lips and he waited for her reply.

Kitalia, being as frightened as she was already by the one stranger's aura, turned around again and ran, as fast as she could to the part of the beach that was nearest to where Club Ether was. She then realized she had no shoes and started to walk slowly back to where she saw them on the beach, it was rather cold out, and her shoes were warm. "If they're there I will ask them what they want." She whispered to herself. "I'll ask them what they want, I can't be cowardly, not at a time like this. But of course I can't just henshin in front of them..." She pulled out a small sword-shaped item on a fine silver chain that had been around her neck.
"Power of Souls Gather Unto Me." Kitalia whispered a silvery mist surrounding her then quickly disappearing as she swung her sword out. She was now wearing something entirely different from her previous attire, but she hoped someone would come soon, if she got into a fight she was going to have to escape somehow.

Shippo was mystified by her transformation. He had never seen anything like it before. No, he KNEW he had never seen anything like that. How did she do it? New questions started to arise in Shippo's mind.

The Nu Mou was unmoving. He knew she'd be back, he could feel it, and what do you know, he was right. Soon enough she appeared, though not nearly in the same appearance as she'd been in before. "Miss Gem. No need to run off. I mean you no harm dear..." The short creature said as he watched her slowly returning to the area, though probably not to see what they wanted or who they were.
"I'm just a simple business man. I have no interest in fighting..." He continued as his grin returned and he chuckled to himself. "As a business man however miss Gem, I know when I've found an asset that I can use to my advantage. Namely you. I would like to ask you a simple question, that being something which I'm sure you've heard before." He said as he began walking towards her slowly. "What do you know about Llednar Twem." Came his query as he continued to approach her. This little parlor trick of her's would be easy enough to bypass should she start a fight though he didn't want one, he only wanted answers.

"I know naught of him but he is an obnoxious thorn in my side." Kitalia replied sharply. "Don't even take one step closer, either of you, or I will be forced to attack. Believe me, this sword isn't dull. Llednar Twem has been hanging with someone named 'Adelle' and that is all I know of the twirp. I have more important matters to attend to. They include finding the Zodiac senshi."

Shippo didn't know what the girl was speaking of. But if she was serious about attacking, he had to keep his guard up. That word rose up again when she spoke though. Zodiac. He still wanted to know who these Zodiacs were. But the looks of things though at there current state, he might not get the chance to ask her.

Dominic having heard Kitalia's mental call, Dragged Harlan out with him. The two seemed to come from nowhere, Dominic standing beside her. Harlan slid one arm around her waist pulling her to him "Chérie We are here, do not fret." Harlan said in a soothing tone, he was ready to wrap an illusion if need be.

Kitalia smiled, her racing heart slowing to a steady rhythm once more as Harlan wrapped his arm around her waist. "Now answer my question strangers, why are you here?" Even though she knew that she couldn't use any more power in this form for now, she was comfortable knowing she could escape if the need arose. Harlan was there and she knew he wouldn't let anything happen to her. Dominic's presence also boosted her confidence. "Like I told you, Adelle and Llednar are naught but strangers to me." (( Her present outfitClose up))

"Please. I mean no harm," Shippo began, "I just have questions that I need answered. I'm just really confused." Shippo ment what he said. He had no intentions of harming the girl or her friends, he just wanted some questions answered.

"Then ask now, I don't have time to deal with people who don't ask when they have the opportunity. Got that?" Kitalia asked sharply. She kept her sword at her side, just in case she needed it for the other creature that was there. "Confused or not, you both need to ask your questions or leave here. You don't belong in this place."

When she had said that last line, Shippo's heart nearly sank. Was everyone here like that? The more he seemed to walk around the more he noticed people giving him mean or disgusted looks or yell at him. "Please....I don't know where I'm from or even who I am.....I just want to know why I am here...."

"Then you will need to find the Seer, Meruhesae. She can be found in the penthouse apartment above Club Ether. Though you must make an appointment with Morte Fushigi first, you can usually find her hanging around the roof of that place. I will let her know to look for you, though, so you should find a place to lie low, or who knows what might happen to you." Spirit warned. "The people here aren't used to non-human visitors."

Shippo was suprised to see Morte's name pop up. So he had to see this seer in order to get his answers, eh? Shippo bowed to her. "Thank you very much." He stood up and left.

Kitalia sighed with relief, her head was already starting to ache, she knew the other creature needed to leave before she would allow herself to rest. 'I'm sure I can keep this up for at least another ten minutes.... Then I'll have to drop my henshin if I don't want to pass out. My powers are still rather weak, since I've been studying for that calculus test and haven't been sleeping very much.' She thought, glad that Harlan and Dominic were there.

The creature smiled again as he took an extra step, but just one, to see her reaction at his blatant disregard of what she'd just said. "Well Kitalia. I'm here because you have answers. My answers though are ones you can give me without sending me to see some seer." He sneered before looking at the two men and disregarding them without so much as a word, focusing all of his attention back on Kitalia without a second thought.
"You said the boy is a thorn in your side, but you mentioned the name...Adelle?" The Nu Mou began laughing hysterically at this before calming himself enough to speak. "Very interesting. How ironic fate can be. Llednar found his sister and neither of them even know it." He obviously didn't care about keeping things like this secret from the tone of his voice but he continued shortly after saying this. "Now, Kitalia, tell me now, and without so much as an attempt to lie, what you know about Ivalice."

"I don't know anything about a place called Ivalice, and those two are brother and sister? They don't look anything alike! Though, they both have tacky fashion sense and spout strange things. The boy is a thorn in my side, like I said. The girl was just as annoying, pestering me with tons of questions that I cannot answer. I am not allowed to give details about my duty here, only a general description." Kitalia answered seriously, glaring at the creature. "Now leave."
