Day 34: Breakfast

[starting off in M13]

The last part of the night was little more than a blur in Homura's mind. The men had rushed in, but not joined them, instead staying off to themselves. Before any of them had a chance to react, however, a voice sounded through the air, mocking some other person Homura had never heard of, and the patients themselves.

To Homura, whoever that man was, he sounded a great deal like a god.

But before he could ask questions, the demi-god found himself no longer in the chapel, but some strange room on a bed. Is that what Kenren had meant from his earlier warning? Homura sat up, glad at least that the world didn't spin when he did so. Then the same man from before began to speak again, with a completely different tone. It was confusing to hear him talk that way, calling them patients instead of prisoners as he had before. Homura listened quietly as the announcement was made, then got out of bed.

Maybe he wouldn't have to go anywhere yet. It wasn't like Homura knew where to go anyway, and that meant he had time. If this was his room, and if he had been here as long as Kenren had said, there was a chance he could find something with answers. The Taisho had even told him that Homura had seen Rinrei. Certainly he would've written something down, made a map, something that could let him find her again! He started with the desk at the end of his bed, first finding a small stack of notebooks. Picking up the first, he flipped through, turning the pages with quickening desperation as he found each one to be blank.

Luxord's smile widened as he took a seat in front of the girl. His cards slid from inside of his sleeve and he fanned them out in front of him, starting to shuffle. "Then why do we not get to know each other, shall we, Princess?" He laughed. "After all, we never seem to have much alone time, do we? Perhaps a game will make this uncomfortable silence all better."

Kairi looked down at the cards and froze, a shudder shooting down her spine as she stared down at the cards. How had he gotten those? Didn’t anyone know it was dangerous, considering that was what he used for weapons?

The once princess relaxed soon enough, her eyes falling shut as she breathed in a deep sigh before pushing herself slightly away from the table. “I don’t think that’s a very good idea. After all, breakfast is almost over, and I have other things that I have to take care of that do not involve card games.”

She’d have to be wary with Luxord. Maybe talk to Axel about him.

"How about," he began, taking no heed at watching the Princess move away, "I read your future? Merely harmless fun. You'd no need to worry about me hurting you."

Kairi blinked at the mention of reading her fortune, her heart already telling her to leave. Simply put, she did not trust this man. Who was to say he wouldn’t give her a bad fortune on purpose?

Opening her mouth to speak, she was suddenly cut off by the sound of the intercom. Letting out a sigh of relief, Kairi stood up, looking down at Luxord for a moment before giving him a bright smile. “Hm, how about some other time? looks like I have to head into the showers.”

Without saying another thing, Kairi turned away and strode out of the cafeteria, her face blank.
