While the other girls seemed to be distracted by the
simplest of things, Yuri decided to sneak off and perhaps meet some
of the other students that would be accompanying her at the school.
She figured that if she got to know some people now, maybe it
wouldn't be quite as hard once they arrived at the school. So, she
walked cautiously over to a group of teenagers that were
conversating amongst themselves, and she stood there, feeling
nervous, waiting patiently for somebody to notice her, so that she
may speak.
LIBITINA
Libitina slowly stood up, and she began to walk around,
feeling slightly more comfortable with this situation, and
beginning to adjust to her new surroundings. As she stepped out
into the open, she spotted a certain purple-haired Doki, which
caused her to jump back quickly, bumping into a cart and sending
Chocolate Frogs and Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans flying
everywhere. Embarrassed, Libitina bent down and began to pick up
the snacks. "Oh no, oh no, oh no. I must stay calm. I don't want
this Third Eye to go crazy because of my heightened negative
emotions..."
Yuri, beginning to feel more and more anxious with each
passing second, collapses onto the floor, clutching her stomach
with her right hand. "I don't feel so good... Can you please point
me back in the direction of my friends? I'm much more comfortable
around them, no offense to you and your friends. There should be a
pink-haired girl, a girl with coral hair and a red bow in it, and a
girl with a really long ponytail. Do you see them
anywhere?"
Aspeth rose to help Yuri. She hoped that her human form would help
to ease the girl's anxiety. She knew what it was like to be
overwhelmed and disoriented. No offense to the others in the
compartment, but they didn't seem the best at calming people
down.
"Hey. I'm Aspeth. Let's get you back to your friends, okay?"
Aspeth trailed after Electris and the girl, concerned. This was NOT
the way to go about things, dragging her back to her friends like
she was a misbehaving toddler. A flick of her wand had shrunk her
trunk back to pocket size, and Aspeth was mobile. She hopped across
the divide to the next carriage car over, still following Electris
and the girl.
Electris literally left as soon as she was back with the girls she
described. "Umm, hi. It's Yuri, right?" Aspeth smiled warmly.
"Sorry for following you, I just wanted to make sure you're okay."
