The sun was setting when the car came into an halt before the small hotel and three people came out of it. The sight of the building was sad: dull painted walls, small windows, an half ruined insignia it screamed cheap! with the desperate intensity of a SOS during a shipwreck. However, as good old (and dumb, sometimes) Dan said: we just needed to pass there the night, not the holidays! (the enthusiasm he put in the sentence was something none could understand at all). Might as well do it in the car, then, and spare the money in the process, was Selias modest and less cheerful opinion. Amelias reflections were unavailable: she was staring at the place with a blank expression. Suddenly, she started humming a tune as she literally hopped forward the entrance. Both her companions remained silent, looking at her with equally puzzled expression: was the thought of a bathroom and a shower enough to earn such a reaction? Probably yes, after a good fifteen hours of traveling cramped in a car among an outrageous amount of luggage. Selia would have been as enthusiast if she hadnt thought of what the colour of the water in such a place could be probably bordering to black. [Box to leave the boring part to out gentle readers imagination: check in, pay (always anticipated, Dan said, because he could be called anytime and he would have something less to think about that was the reason he was considered dumb), get the key and find the rooms.] The water was just almost yellow, instead. It could have been an almost nice surprise, considered the situation, if only the room wasnt of a vicious red color -meant to be vivacious in the decorators mind, probably- that made Selia shiver and almost wish she could sleep with her tutors. She looked forward getting to bed and sleep tight to see the place as less as possible, but first she had to endure Dans last goodnight speech in the corridor. Actually, it was meant to be a conversation, but Selia had barely the time to nod, and very quickly, if she wanted to do it in the right places. Amelia was lost somewhere within the shower, bravely enduring the yellow water touch. This is he last evening we pass together, isnt it? O my you called your parents right? Good girl, they must be so thrilled to know you are almost there! You saw the laboratory, didnt you? Nice place, very professional looking and Im sure youll get a good starter! If I only had the occasion when I was younger! Now, well say goodbye tomorrow, sure, but I want to make sure you know that you can call us anytime and say good luck anyway see, the can call me anytime and I would have something less to think about Sun, chirping birds of many varieties that turned in outraged squawks at some point and were followed by the sounds of violent flapping and of something banging against the glass of her window. Good Morning! Selia rose groggily from the hard mattress and stretched quickly. She had woken up early, which was bad, in a sense. She had to take a lot of time in dressing and settling her hair, now, if she wanted to take advantage of the lateness factor and avoid a new 'goodbye speech'. At least in the morning that place looked better than she had thought. The walls were not as dark as the dusk faint light had made her to think. The color was closer to salmon, actually, though still not the choice she would have made. The water had lost the yellow hue as well and was indeed quite crystalline... probably the bathroom hadn't been used in a while before their arrival. Half an hour after her 'gentle' waking, she cracked the door of her room open. Amelia and Dan's room one was doing the same... but the people that emerged from it were definitely not Amelia and Dan, bt rather two people with a virtual 'we are tourist' insignias above their head. Selia blinked, made sure she wasn't looking at the wrong room and -when she was sure she wasn't- she picked up her things, puzzled, and went to the hall to see if they were down there, waiting for her. They weren't, and the car had been substituted by an expensive looking one. She almost let out an outraged cry: they had left her there without even a word! She was positively angry -and, deep down, worried: what could have happened of so important to make the two go away like that?- not to mention something was bugging the back of her mind for awhile then, but she couldn't place what. 'The hell' she thought rabidly 'I'm going to the lab and who cares!' [Note: 1.The hotel is to match with her biography, an house just didn't do. 2. In fear a part of this wasn't going to make sense without the biography I posted the profile, and aftermath remembered I was not supposed until the end of the next stage. Yeah, I'm fantastic like that... going to re-read the rules a fourth time, just for the sake of it.] Edited by Selia, Nov 5 2008, 04:34 AM.

Who knows the reason for the disappearance, or the strange fact that they had rented the room, yet two total strangers had emerged from it...you certainly had a mystery there. Either way, who cares too much. They certainly didn't seem like the best friends to go and do something like that. On the up-side, your luggage at least hadn't vanished with them. There WAS a mysterious package sitting with it that you were pretty sure hadn't been with it last night...right? Curiouser and curiouser... Inspection of it's contents revealed some cash, which when added to your own savings, gave you 5,000 Zenni, an Escape Rope with three charges, and a brand spanking new Poketech. A gift maybe? Or just another bit of the mystery? Impossible to tell, really. Still, the lab was still there, at least, waiting. Mysteries could wait. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I don't think it's too much of a big deal...but then, I'm rather easygoing, and since you pointed it out before I even noticed it...well...iunno. I liked 'em both anyhow, and so, eh. Moving on. |

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present. ~Oogway
