Usually he spends all day looking for Ikuto, and then comes back to Mikoto's warehouse at night. He's been trying to make a sort of search grid, to make things easier for him. But the further away from the warehouse he searches, the longer it takes to get there and back. So, he needs to leave earlier and then return later, to have the same amount of time to search for clues.<br /><br />This is why he's out so late, well after midnight, when he really wants to be asleep. Miko-chan's lap is really warm and comfy. He's made a circuit of the park while he was here, and didn't see anything there either. But he wasn't surprised at that. So he finally sits down, on the brick pillar of a fence surrounding one a park. It has a nice, flat surface good for that. And he heaves a sigh as he does. He's so tired. And upset, too, given the way his ears are lowered. "...Ikuto... where are you-nya...?"

:'''{{#var:165|Sierra Earhart| (165)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>All is quiet in the Earhart residence. This is for good reason too. Word got to Sierra's parents that her father's side grandparents have taken ill. This has lead her parents to catch a flight from Tokyo to North Carolina so they could be their with their parents. They opted to leave Sierra home alone during this because one, her fear of heights, and two, school. Its not like she can't take care of herself to at least some degree. Sadly, with her home alone, things are very unsettling. This has lead to a rather sleepless night. <br /><br />Sierra awoke with a start. A nightmare. Kit was not exactly unaware of what was going on. She quickly moves over to help Sierra out. Sierra looked at her and shook her head, "Sorry Kit. I think maybe I need to take a walk or something. Its so quiet here with no one else here." Quickly she stood up and got dressed. Then it was right out the door.<br /><br />That leads us to now. The young woman is out walking down the street at night. She stands out fairly well, not just because she has blue hair but because she is quite tall compared to most other Japanese girls. She just quietly moves along. Floating along side her is a little Chara dressed in old school pilot attire. Neither are talking. Sierra is trying to destress. Kit is just with her keeping up some emotional support. They appear to be headed towards the park.

:'''{{#var:77|Ikuto Tsukiyomi| (77)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Yoru wouldn't have noticed Sierra and Kit as he is, sitting there with his head down and his shoulders slumped. But he could sense Kit. It was a sudden realization that struck across his awareness like a match being struck. His head jerks up, and he looks in the direction of the sensation of another Chara. He shifts to his handpaws and knees, to peek over the pillar.<br /><br />The sensation should strike across Kit's awareness in the same way, and should pull her at least in the vague direction of Yoru's presence. And should the little pilot Chara look up at the fence pillar, she'll see the blue-haired feline Chara peeking over, looking at her and Sierra with yellow, slit-pupiled eyes.

:'''{{#var:165|Sierra Earhart| (165)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Kit blinks a few times and smiles excitedly, "Hey Sierra-chan, hold up! I feel another chara nearby!" She goes flying looking for the source that triggered her sense. She quickly flies towards the fence looking around and then up. Thats when her violet eyes meet the the feline chara. "Oh Hiya! Nice t' meet ya!"<br /><br />Sierra had stopped when Kit flew off to go find the other Chara. She looks around curiously, "Kit? Is everything okay?" She asks curiously. She's hoping everything is alright. She would hate if there was anyone hurt. She glances up to her own chara to see the strange kitty Chara. "Oh! Hello there? Are you alright?" She asks Yoru.

:'''{{#var:77|Ikuto Tsukiyomi| (77)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Yoru looks at Kit with a blink. "Hi! Didn't expect to see another Chara around here-nya!" he replies. And then Sierra looks up too, and Yoru waves an oversized hand-paw. The question gets a pause, and he sighs a little. "Not really. But there's nothin' anybody can do about it yet-nya."<br /><br />Instead of dwelling on it, though, he flies down to inspect Sierra. "So you're a Chara Bearer-nya?" Looking between Sierra and Kit, "My name's Yoru! What's your name-nya?"

:'''{{#var:165|Sierra Earhart| (165)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Kit smiles a little to Yoru, "Well if'n ya need someone to talk to I'll listen!" Her accent is thick. Definitely from across the pond. She flies down to join Sierra and listens carefully to the cat Chara, "Hiya Yoru-san! I'm Kit!" She states happily.<br /><br />Sierra smiles as she inspects the Chara. She giggles just a little but then speaks up with a nod, "Yes I am. I'm sorta new to it. Kit was just hatched about two weeks ago. Already I dunno how I handled things without her." She stats with a smile. Finally she gives her name, "My name is Sierra Earhart. I am new to Tokyo. Where is your bearer? I've not seen a Chara on their own before."

:'''{{#var:77|Ikuto Tsukiyomi| (77)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>When Kit speaks, Yoru smiles broadly, his face doing a pretty good approximation of a smiling maneki neko. "Hehe, you talk funny-nya!" he points out. It's not said meanly or rudely, no; he finds the accent amusing. And actually kind of cute, truth be told! He's never heard it before!<br /><br />Sierra's mention of a new Bearer, gets a nod. "Yeah. It can be hard adjusting at first! 'Specially if she's a part of you that you're scared of, or don't want people t'see-nya!" But he stops at the question of his Bearer. Fidgets. He wrings his hand-paws, looking around. "Um... I don't really know where he is-nya..."

:'''{{#var:165|Sierra Earhart| (165)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Yoru is not the only one who is amused by the way a Chara speaks. Kit giggles as well, "You do too! really cool! My accent is because Sierra was born in Southern USA. When she's more confident her accent comes out a lot stronger too. Its fun t' hear!" She smiles bright and giggles a little.<br /><br />Sierra gives a warm nod, "Ummm, Its not exactly an easy thing for me. While I love the dream Kit represents, It also has to do with one of my fears. But I know that I can achieve that dream! I know I'll get past my fears. I just hope more sooner then later." She shrugs a little. And then the little chara drops such a sad emotional bomb on her. "Aww. I'm so sorry, Yoru-san. I really hope you find him. Its aweful that you've lost him. I wish I could help." She then looks at Kit. Something about this making her think of someone else. "I think someone mentioned someone in trouble... Utau."

:'''{{#var:77|Ikuto Tsukiyomi| (77)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>"You can tell where mine's from-nya!" Yoru replies, in answer to Kit's mention of her accent. And it's true-- the large hand- and foot-paws, the feline ears, slit-pupiled eyes, and the cat's tail behind him pretty much tell everything one needs to know about why his accent is the way it is.<br /><br />Yoru listens to Sierra's explanation about it being difficult to adjust to, and nods. "With your Chara's help, you can accomplish anything-nya! She wouldn't have been born if you weren't capable!"<br /><br />And then suddenly... Sierra mentions a name. Immediately Yoru's eyes go wide, and he freezes in the air. "Utau-chan?! You know Utau-chan?!" he all but squeaks.

:'''{{#var:165|Sierra Earhart| (165)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Kit giggles a little and nods, "It makes sense! You're cute!" She states giggling a little bit. "I've been helping Sierra out to learn to not doubt herself so much. She's getting better but she still does it sometimes."<br /><br />Sierra whips her head up to look at Kit, "I ain't that bad about it anymore! I've been getting better and you know it!" She snaps to her Chara and hey there it is! Her own accent comes out nice and thick as she yells at her. She then turns her attention back to Yoru and she nods slowly, "Sometimes it's a little unbelievable but I'm starting to understand it a little more. I've noticed that with Kit, I am a lot less fearful then I used to be. Its really amazing though."<br /><br />Then, Yoru gets excited. Sierra gives a nod. "Yes I do. I wouldn't exactly say we are friends. We met my first day in Tokyo. She thought I was hitting on Kukai-san and well, She threatened to sing me a little song. Since then between Utau-san, Iru and Eru, I found out what that meant. Nice to know she was threatening to steal Kit from me before she was born. Ah well, we are at least on better terms now." She giggles a little bit. "She said she was worried she may have hurt her brother. She didn't say more about it then that."

:'''{{#var:77|Ikuto Tsukiyomi| (77)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Yoru goes a bit quiet when Sierra explains about Utau. Even Kit's enthusiasm isn't enough to raise his spirits, it seems. And why's that? "Ikuto. And... and Ikuto's mine-nya," the feline Chara says sadly. He droops in the air, his ears flattening and his tail hanging limply. "I'm tryin' ta find him. Easter did somethin' horrible to 'im-nya. The last time I saw him he was all... lifeless. It was months ago. Haven't seen 'im since. I dunno where he is now-nya..."

:'''{{#var:165|Sierra Earhart| (165)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Sierra frowns softly, She reaches out, putting a hand under the feline chara and uses her other hand to gently pet him. Finally it clicks, "Utau-san is Ikuto-san's sister isn't she?" She asks curiously. Her mind races a bit. "That is horrible. If I can help I will. The more I hear about Easter the more I dislike them. They sound just horrible. Who does this stuff?" She frowns and shakes her head. "Do you need someplace to stay? I know you are probably hunting for Ikuto-san but everyone needs someplace to crash. I can help a little that way. I don't know how to chara transform or much of anything. I mean I've changed a few times so I dunno how good I will be in a fight. But this I can do for now." She smiles

:'''{{#var:77|Ikuto Tsukiyomi| (77)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Yoru nods, alighting on the offered hand. He's not generally so physical with people he's just met-- particularly not a GIRL, EW!-- but this is hardly a 'normal' circumstance. Besides, even if it's only slightly, Sierra knows Utau, and that means she might be able to get Yoru in to see Ikuto. Yoru nods to the question. "Yeah. It's a long way away, but I have to keep lookin' for 'im-nya," he notes. "But the further away I go, the longer it takes to get back, so it's really late when I get back there-nya."

:'''{{#var:165|Sierra Earhart| (165)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Sierra Earhart smiles, "Well, Ummm, I live right there." She points up to an apartment complex at the third floor balcony. "If you need a place to catch your breath or just to crash sometime, you can stop there." She smiles a little. Part of her wishing she could do something more. Her gaze goes to Kit and not a word is spoken by her.<br /><br />Kit looks back to Sierra. She flies a little closer, knowing exactly what she is thinking. "We will get there. We ain't ready yet but before long we'll be flyin high. I believe in ya. Together we can do it!"

:'''{{#var:77|Ikuto Tsukiyomi| (77)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Yoru pauses, looks up at where Sierra's pointing at. "Oh, that should cut down on travel time," Yoru notes. "I'll have to let Miko-chan know, though, so she won't get worried if I don't show up one night-nya." A smile to Sierra, a genuinely happy one. "Thanks! I appreciate that-nya!"<br /><br />And the mention of flying high together? Yoru nods! "That's right-nya! Just believe in Kit! And believe in yourself, too! I know that's hard! But you can do it-nya!"

:'''{{#var:165|Sierra Earhart| (165)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Sierra nods with a smile. "We can do it. I'm just scared. There are so many things that could go wrong. I know though when you're with me, I can do it." She states to Kit. There is a lot of nervousness in her voice. Part of her wishes she could chara change right now. Looking like such a scaredy cat in front of Yoru is a little unsettling. That doesn't happen though. She simply smiles to her Chara.<br /><br />"Sorry Yoru, I'm still learning how to do this. I wish I were a little more helpful. I know the other bearers are much more experienced then I am. Kukai-san has been teaching me a little bit but its definitely a lot to learn."

:'''{{#var:77|Ikuto Tsukiyomi| (77)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>"It's okay-nya! Every Bearer was where you are now at one time!" Yoru assures her. "Ikuto didn't know what to do at first. He said he was scared when he found an egg in his bed! He had it for a while before I hatched-nya. He was in Europe! It was really nice there! He played his violin, and made money to live over there. He really liked it-nya..."

:'''{{#var:165|Sierra Earhart| (165)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Sierra smiles a little, "That sounds amazing. I have never tried to play any instruments before." She looks up at Kit and giggles, "See I didn't say I can't do it! I said I didn't try before! Thats a different thing right?" She giggles playfully. Kit rolls her eyes and laughs at her bearer. "I am learning! I know things won't happen overnight but, Hey its fun tolearn right?"

:'''{{#var:77|Ikuto Tsukiyomi| (77)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>"Ikuto's really good on the violin-nya," Yoru asserts. "He used to play for me when we were in Europe." And he nods at the mention of learning. "It'll take a while. An' I know how that is, I don't wanna wait to get better-nya! I don't wanna wait to see Ikuto, but I know I will sooner or later!" He floats up into the air again, raising one hand-paw triumphantly into the air, curled into a fist. "I'm gonna get 'im back-nya!!" he declares.

:'''{{#var:165|Sierra Earhart| (165)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Sierra Earhart smiles to Yoru. "You'll get him back! I just know it. I'll help as I can. No one should ever take and hold someone against their will like that." She looks towards Kit, "Chara change!" She exclaims with a wink. Kit giggles and nods. Suddenly the scrunchy in Sierra's Hair flashes and becomes a set of goggles, Her posture changes looking much more bold. "We ain't gonna sit idly by! We're gonna take the fight to those Easter jerks and we're going give them an old school shpanking!" She's getting really excited. It almost sounds like a pre-sortie motivational thing. She swings her arm up into the air and reaches to the sky as she speaks. "Their going to ride the shoelace express clear into the Jet Stream!" In her excitement something happens. A high speed blast of wind goes sailing stright up blowing all of the leaves off off a side of the tree she happens to be under. "Oh crap!" She covers her mouth in shock. Kit just laughs at her.

:'''{{#var:77|Ikuto Tsukiyomi| (77)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Yoru seems cheered by this, and smiles happily when Sierra makes her motivational speech. And then promptly laughs when the leaves go blowing off the side of the tree. It's not a mean laugh, no-- it's an amused one, one that has him reclining in the air and kicking his feet in laughter. "Careful with your wind-nya!" he laughs. "You're a lot more powerful than you might think. All Bearers are!"

:'''{{#var:165|Sierra Earhart| (165)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Sierra just blinks a few times as the leaves finally start coming down all over her and the two charas. "I never did that before. Oh my gods! I dunno what to say!"<br /><br />Kit is still laughing as she flies around Sierra, "Congratulations! Thats just a little of what you can do in the future! Though ya might move now. Ya just did what some might call a high speed flyby and at this alttitude people sorta get fussy about that sort of thing." The chara comments with a wink. <br /><br />Sierra starts laughing a little herself. "Umm I think you might be right, Kit. Umm, We should probably clear out before someone realizes I just wrecked a tree." She blushes and slowly starts walking. Nevermind the countless leaves that have fallen all in her hair and on her clothes. Kit's opted to start picking them out, having a grand ol time.

:'''{{#var:77|Ikuto Tsukiyomi| (77)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Yoru's first instinct is to chase the leaves as they start floating down. He is, after all, a cat. So he's having a grand old time chasing all those leaves. Woo! But Sierra's voice catches his attention, and he releases the leaf he'd caught to look at her. He nods to her mention of needing to go. "Thanks for the offer-nya," Yoru notes. He means, of course, staying at her place. "I think I better get back to Miko-chan tonight. But I'll tell her about you, so she doesn't worry if I stay there-nya."

:'''{{#var:165|Sierra Earhart| (165)}} has posed:'''<br><span></span>Sierra just laughs a little more upon seeing Yoru going after the leaves. She can't help it. This is a crazy situation made so much more fun then she thought it could. She then nods to the Cat Chara, "Okay you be safe, Yoru. Tell Miko-san I said hi. I have met her briefly after Kit hatched. Just don't lose hope. You'll find Ikuto-san and I know I am definitely going to help." She smiles and bows politely to the cat chara with a smile. "I think its about time for me to get home and go to bed. Be safe, Yoru-san." <br /><br /> Kit smiles and gives a little wave as well, "Y'all be careful, Yoru-san! Don't get in too much trouble and keep away from dogs!" She exclaims as she watches him go. She turns to Sierra and giggles, "I like Yoru, He's cute!" She whispers to her.<br /><br />Sierra just closes her eyes and laughs a full laugh.
