Parkside Square Apartments ~ WHAT.

[Xeric]

Chase had been sat around in this apartment for a while now. After he parted ways from his neighbours, home seemed just the thing he needed.. but now he was bored. He couldn't go to work, due to it being closed for reconstruction; he doesn't really have any friends he could call.. what else was their?

He threw himself on his couch.

"I hate this dimension.." he moaned.

[Leedzie]

All of a sudden a great banging at the door would divert the lonely pooch's attention. There was so much force behind the noise, it wasn't clear if the person on the other side of the door was hitting it or kicking it.

[Xeric]

The husky's ears pricked at the noise of the door being pounded. He peered over the back of his couch at stared at the door.

"W-what the heck..?!"

Thoughts ran through his head. Was it the police comming to collect him for being an illegal imigrant or something? or maybe the manager of Twinkle Park discovered he had a small part in the destruction of the Twinkle Park entrance?

He stood up, took a nearby fork from his coffee table, and approached the door. He stood with his back to the wall by the door.

"H-hello..?"

[Leedzie]

Apparently growing impatient, the door rocketed open with a mighty kick, and a pink pangolin glanced inside. "Oh, you ARE home. I need to talk to you."

[Xeric]

The door flung open with a mighty bang, and Chase threw himself onto the floor.

"OH GOD ITS-- ... Leda.. right?"

Chase' muzzle went red with embarassment. He stood up, wiped his shirt and adjusted his hat.

"W-what's up, neighbour?"

[Leedzie]

The pangolin stepped into the apartment, her eyes fixated on the startled tenant. "I have a few questions for you. Got a minute?" Although, by her demeanor, it probably didn't really matter if he was free at that moment or not.

[Xeric]

Do I have a choice? You just kicked the door from its hinges..

"Err.. yeah. Take a seat" he said whilst picking up his door and leaning it againt the frame.

Nook's gonna kill me..

He entered the seating area, took off his hat and sat down. "So.. what's up?"

[Leedzie]

Leedz followed after her host and took a seat at his side. Without missing a beat, a tape recorder appeared in one hand and a notebook with a pencil in the spine in the other. The pangolin clicked on the recorder and sat it on the table, then turned to Chase with oddly intense eyes. "Tell me anything you can think of relating to when you arrived in our world."

[Xeric]

Chase gave Leedz an awkward look. "If you asking how I got here.. I'm not 100% on that myself. I was leaving Soleanna, the city I grew up, to go to college when a blue Vortex like thing appeared in front of me. I must of be knocked unconcious, or I must of fainted because I don't remember anything up to the point I woke up in Windy Valley. I just headed to the closest city, that being Station Square." He stood and moved into the kitchen, poured them both a glass of juice, and sat back down.

"I heard a member of the Royal family was in this diemsnion too, but i've had no luck tracking her down." He let out a sigh, and took a sip of his drink.

"Does that help you in anyway, Inspector?"

By Solaris' great flames, you'd think I was on trail..!

[Leedzie]

"I heard a rumor she's supposed to be making an announcement or something soon," Leedz distractedly mumbled as she hurriedly scribbled in her notebook. "So will you tell me about that vortex in more detail? Beyond it being blue and swirly?"

[Xeric]

"Reallly? I'll have to look into that.." he replied.

"It was BIG.. erm, this may sound stupid, but I swear I seen some fish, which morphed into birds.. and lots of blue and red spheres.. That was probably just my imagination though. Like i said though, I fainted. So I don't remember much."

[Leedzie]

"Fish and birds... spheres..." Once the hasty writing finished, Leedz's purple eyes rose to Chase's once more. Apparently, the information she'd just received didn't sound all that bizarre. "What's the first thing you remember about waking up here? What were the first places you went?"

[Xeric]

Chase shuffled around in his seat, trying to get comfortable. "Hmm, the first thing I seen when I woke up was probably, what looked like endless amounts of mesh paths, suspended in the sky. At first I had no idea how I was ever gonna get down, but I just followed the paths until I reached the end. After that, I was somehow transported into a cave inside the Mystic Ruins." he replied.

Chase kept wondering what Leedz intentions where. Why on earth was she asking these questions..

"I saw a train station in the distance, and headed towards it. Unfortunelty, the trains were on Strike. Which, from what i've heard, isn't very uncommon around here~" he laughed. "Again, a stroke of luck occured and I found an abandoned bike. Not knowing it was infact extreme gear, I sat upon it, and it began hovering in the air. Naturally, it startled me, but to be honest, I just wanted to know where I was.. I pretty much followed the train tracks straight here to Station Square..

When I arrived, I began asking direction back to Soleanna. Everyone must of thought I was insane or something because they had no idea what I was going on about. Since then, I've spent time in the Library, learning about this world. I got a Job at Twinkle Park, and I'm now your neighbour.. that's about it to be honest, Leda."

[Leedzie]

As the jotting of notes continued, the pangolin appeared to be in some deep level of consideration. She remained quiet for a moment or two after finishing writing, simply sitting silently and thinking. When finally she resumed animation, Leedz shut the notepad and clicked off the tape recorder.

"Thanks for the info," she said, rising from her feet. "I hope it'll be useful. If I need anything else, I'll come calling again."

[Xeric]

"Er.. I don't want to seem nosy or anything Leda, but what's this all about?"

[Leedzie]

"I'm trying to gather as much information as I can about what happens when someone hops dimensions," Leedz explained, stuffing the investigative supplies back into her malletspace. "Another tenant here went missing several weeks ago, and I've come to the conclusion that I'm apparently the only person interested in finding him. Raki suggested he might've ended up in your world, just like you ended up here. It's certainly a lead I can't dismiss, so..."

[Xeric]

"Well, that could b possible. I hope I was of some help" he smiled. He stood and walked to the door. "If you need anything else, you know where I am anyway." he said as he opened the door to his apartment.
