one lost little bookworm

[demonicbookworm]

Who: bitty Ruca and all of you
What: a little boy wandering around
When: afternoon
Style: I'll match
Status: OPEN

The first thing that Ruca noticed when he woke up this morning was that it was not his room and that he was all alone. He didn't remember how he got there and so he couldn't help but panic. Why was he here? He could think only of two explanations: either it was a dream or someone kidnapped him. After a moment, he was convinced that it was the second one and that only scared him more.

But no, he couldn't just shake in fear and wait! He had to be brave just like the person from his dreams! Thinking that way the boy left the room as quietly as possible and – after making sure that really no one was around - quickly ran outside the building.

Once he saw where he was, it took him a while to stop himself from staring at the unfamiliar surroundings. The place seemed unfriendly to him with all the strangers around, but the boy made his mind already and he repeated to himself that he isn't afraid at all. He needed to find a way to go back home. He needed to go back to his mother and father. Surely they were both worried about him.

And so, the child started walking around, hoping that he would find a way to return home.

Regnum?

[ Uh oh. ]

I've never heard of that place...[ Sora paused. ] This is Vatheon.

[tinyphoenix]

_{[Ruca saddened.]}

...And I've never heard about Vatheon.

_{[Will he ever find the way back home?]}

[runbysmiles]

Don't worry! We'll figure it out!

[ At least Sora hoped so. ]

[tinyphoenix]

_{[Ruca nods after a moment.]}

Right... You're right.

_{[He had to believe in that.]}

[runbysmiles]

Yeah! Don't worry Ruca!

[tinyphoenix]

I-I'm not worried.

_{[Trying to look as brave and calm as he can. Obviously he isn't doing a good job at that. He still looks worried.]}

[runbysmiles]

[ Well Sora wasn't going to point it out. ]

Let's get some ice cream okay?

[tinyphoenix]

Ice cream? Now?

_{[What happened to looking for a way back home?]}

[runbysmiles]

Yeah...it may be awhile before we can figure out how to get you back.

[ And Sora was just a little worried they wouldn't be able to, so maybe some fun would help take Ruca's mind off of it? ]

[tinyphoenix]

Oh.

_{[He nods.]}

I guess you're right...

[runbysmiles]

Come on.

[ Sora tugs gently on Ruca's hand to lead him away. ]

[tinyphoenix]

_{[Ruca nods and allows Sora to lead him. As they walk the boy looks around a bit, still hoping he'll notice something (or someone?) that would help him go back home.]}
