Second Blade | Video/Open | Action/Locked

[It was just past noon in Germany when a call went out, the video revealing a young woman with black hair and uniform shifting uncomfortably in her seat. She looked to be in a break room of sorts. When she spoke she had a moderate French accent with a touch of German. It seemed English wasn't that strong.]

"Hello everyone... Um... My name is Celine Blanchefleur. I was advised to make this broadcast in English but I can speak French and German as well. I've been numbered for a short while now and I really don't know... anything. At all. Well much."

[She was extremely nervous, though not really distressed. Perhaps she just wasn't used to asking for help, or maybe it was simply the nature of the help she was requesting.] "I thought I might see if anyone can tell me anything. Or be willing to answer some of my questions. Honestly though I do not know what questions I'm supposed to ask. Or where to even start. This is all very new to me."

umm...listen to what is going on. usually you find out a lot just by watching things. even us kids can figure things out quickly.

...even if a lot of kids are gone now.

I can do that I think. And I've already met someone keen on helping me.

And I heard about the kids vanishing. I don't know many of the details though.

[A second text came several moments later.]

I didn't get your name by the way.

[There is a moment before the response comes in voice. The quiet voice of a 9 year old girl.]

I...I'm Dani. I..I kinda recognize your name from my cousin.

[A pause as she's not fully sure how to explain things]

Well..they were after little kids for something. I don't know all what was going on but me and my friend got kidnapped to lead everyone to them. It..was kinda bad. There s also people losing their echos..it..happens a lot it seems like.

"Dani. That is a lovely name... And do other numbered really know about me? Already? Or is Emilia your cousin?"

[There was a moment of quiet]

It's possible to lose an echo? Wh... How?"

Oh! Yeah, Emi is my cousin. She told me a bit.
Thank you, it's short for Danièle...but I like Dani better. That and people can actually pronounce it correctly.

[There is a slight french accent to her voice. It's slowly been drowned out from a few years of being in the states.

She gets quiet and sounds slightly distant.]

Yeah...it happens a lot. People just all of a sudden just don't remember or use the things theu could before. I...Everyone has seen it happen a lot.

"That... is awful. I wont lie and say this has been a fun experience thus far but it does feel a bit like I'm remembering something important. Forgetting would be..." [She didn't bother finishing.]

"Happier subject. Your name. Danièle. Je pense que ce est magnifique." [Her pronunciation of both the French and Dani's name were flawless, though colored by a slight german accent.]

[Change of subject is happily taken with a soft chiming noise along with a little giggle. She didn't like to talk about it very often. But the french keeps her quiet after the giggle. It's been a while since she spoke in her native tongue with anyone other then family in a long time.]

Merci. Parfois, je me ennuie de France à cause de cela. Je ne pense pas que ce soit a une frontière écho encore si ...

[Celine smiled when she heard the laugh. It was nice to hear that she was more cheerful now.]

"Oui, oui. Je ne ai pas eu de retour en France depuis longtemps moi-même. Ça me manque. Je ai grandi en Allemagne."

[Sometimes being easily distracted could be a very good thing. Dani was always happy to distract herself from the bad thoughts. The temptation to run away from everything was always something that tended to come up. There is another soft chiming as she continues.]

Vous êtes de la France ainsi? Peut-être un jour nous aurons une frontière écho là-bas et nous pouvons tous aller visiter! Mon père et ma sœur sont là, après beaucoup de mauvaises choses qui se est passé ici.

Qu'est-ce que ça fait de vivre en Allemagne?

[Celine wondered vaguely what the chiming was, but she didn't question it, preferring to keep the girl distracted instead.]

Il serait bien de rentrer à la maison. Et je aimerais rencontrer votre famille. Je aime rencontrer de nouvelles personnes.

L'Allemagne est un endroit merveilleux. Si vous visitez jamais je vais vous montrer.

[It's been a while since anyone didn't know she had wings so it'd take her a bit to catch on as is.]

Je ne ai pas vus depuis qu'ils se éloignaient. Mais ils aiment les gens et parler beaucoup plus que moi ... Je ne suis pas vraiment le type de ami.

[She is, just how she was brought up..too shy to think that.]

Je ai été quelques fois avec le téléporteur mais ce était pour des choses comptait plus alors à regarder autour. Et quelqu'un qui ne aime pas quand je me promène au large où je ne peux pas être trouvé. Mon téléphone portable ne fonctionne pas en dehors des Etats.

[Her frown could be heard in her voice.]

Je pense que vous feriez un merveilleux ami. Ne pensez pas autrement.

[Celine's tone softened again.]

Je comprends. Nous devrions aller de pair sometmie. Je vais vous montrer les meilleurs endroits à visiter.

[She paused. There was some German speech in the background too faint to really make out.]

Je ai besoin de me remettre au travail. Je vais vous parler plus tard.

[Dani's quiet for a moment, taking it in. She speaks, although it's softer.]

Bon ... Je vais essayer de ne pas.

[Although it gets a bit happier at that.]

Bien! Laissez-moi savoir quand et je peux aller sur le plus avec le téléporteur. Ce sera amusant.

Oh ... D'accord. Ce est agréable de vous rencontrer et de parler avec vous Mlle Céline
