a private roleplay between reichii and i! look, but don't post please! who do you think that you are ? it sure seems you've got no doubts. you've got your head in the clouds.
Hands clenched into fists, cheeks tinged with red, breath coming out in little huffs; Aurelia Trenton stood doubled over, staring at the smooth park ground as if it had done her a grievous wrong. For anyone who knew her, or even knew of her, this would be a strange sight. The girl rarely ventured outside. Her body was a far cry from athletic, and she hated to sweat. So seeing her in this state... it was worth a double take for sure. Furthermore, leaves and twigs had made home in her hair. Her clothes were streaked with dirt. She looked a mess, and it upset her. Aurelia was a person who took pride in her appearance. She wasn't vain, but she believed that a person should always look their best. It was common curtsey. No one wanted to look at ugly people.
And why exactly was she in this state? Well, it was a funny story really. She'd been leaving her dingy old apartment to buy some groceries when she'd decided to take a shortcut through some bushes to save time. It had gone... well, at least until some furry little critter nabbed her wallet and took off. Not only was there a lot of money in the thing, it was also a gift from her grandmother. So Aurelia took off after it, hating herself for not sticking to the traditional route.
Strappy heels and no stamina whatsoever hadn't gotten her far. In fact, she'd completely lost sight of the stupid little thing. when her mother would come to know about this, Aurelia would be dead. A soft sigh escaped her pale pink lips as she raised her head and scanned the area again. Nothing. Dragging herself to a nearby park bench, she slumped down, her face blank but her eyes unhappy. Why did things like this always happen to her?

"Are you okay?" An orange-haired girl stepped from behind the bushes. "My name is Sarah. Can I help you?" Sarah had been practicing her battle insight and her fighting skills when she heard a series of soft sighs and a few littles gasps. Suddenly, an older girl with long hair twisted into a braided bun appeared. "Lady Sarah, it is not appropriate for young ladies like yourself to be mingling with forest hunters like her." said the woman. "No, Miss Natalie," Sarah replied softly, "I don't think she belongs to this forest. she must have used one of the little paths." Sarah looked at her. "She might need help, and that is my job." 'Cheep, Cheep' laughed a raccoon holding a wallet, 'Cheep!'

She hadn't expected anyone to be in the area. She never did to be honest. Aurelia was of the mind that the world belonged to her. That no one would dare approach her. Because, let's face it, with her narrowed eyes and perpetual look of boredom and distrust, not many people did. Which was why she almost jumped when she heard someone step out of the bushes and then inquire about her condition. Aurelia stood up, no way was she going to sit there and look asinine. It was a little girl, with a head of flaming orange hair. What in the world was a little girl doing all alone in a park? Maybe she lived here? She didn't look homeless, but one never knew. After giving the girl a once - over, she almost turned and left without a word when something... interesting presented itself.
She'd been quick to tack on a label on the child, and not a good one at that, but as she overheard the uptight woman address her, she was forced to reevaluate the girl. She must be someone from a good family. One of those rich aristocrats or something, Aurelia thought, curiosity piqued. She was focused on the girl, so focused, that the woman's jibe almost, almost missed her. Perhaps she didn't look her best now, but seriously? She did not, in any way, look like a hunter. And while that barb stung, she was prepared to overlook it and leave.
Until she something else interesting. "Your job?" she asked the girl, forgetting that she had a policy of not speaking to anyone. "Are you the park police or something?" This last was said with amusement. This was all so... odd. Aurelia decided to go along with it. After all, meetings like this didn't happen every day.

She laughed. "No, I'm not a park police or anything. I'm part of the royal family and its our job to be role models and help the townspeople." Sarah looked over at the blue-haired girl. She looks kind of dangerous, but appearances can be deceiving and this girl is kind of interesting. "What is your name?" Sarah said, "Can I be your friend?" Mother will like it if I make another friend, wont she? And could she be a robber in disguise? If so, I must find out. "Could you show me where you live?" If this girl lead Sarah to her house, she could easily find out about her and Sarah was prepared for that.

The corners of her mouth turned upwards in something of a smirk. If it wasn't for the fussy- governess she could say, and the expensive clothes, she would have dismissed this girl as a mental patient. Heck, even with those two pieces of evidence, she still didn't believe her. Aurelia was a skeptic. The girl didn't look like she was joking, or making it up. She had a sincere gaze, which unnerved Aurelia a little. She ran a hand through her hair. She hadn't even known this place had a royal family. Biting her lip, Aurelia decided to believe this little girl, for the time being at least. She'd go along with it. She was flexible... right?
What sort of latched onto her was the girl's comment on how she was supposed to be a role model for the townspeople. She looked like she was ten! What an absurd thing to say. She certainly wasn't going to be Aurelia's role model. But again, she was just a child, so Aurelia didn't say so out loud, instead offering the orange haired girl a tight lipped smile. "I'm sure" she muttered dryly. This was getting more and more bizarre by the minute.
Aurelia could understand the inquiry about her name. That was perfectly normal, but to ask someone to take you their house? That was... she didn't have the words to describe it. Incredibly foolish. Aurelia scowled a little, almost glaring at the girl. "Aura" she said gruffly, decided that her nickname couldn't hurt. Her face returned to its normal blankness. Now how was she going to refuse that request? A simple 'no' would suffice, but it was rude. Aurelia wouldn't normally have cared about hat, had this not been a kid she was speaking to. She wasn't completely heartless. So she simply said, "I can't. I'm looking for a furry little pest who stole my wallet. Sorry."

Sarah smirked. "Now, Aura, was this furry critter a raccoon by any chance?" She smiled. This is so weird! I'm only eleven and I'm questioning a girl so old she might even have a car. And I'm so serious!Miss Natalie frowned. "Sarah, dear,are you possibly thinking that my my little Cheepsy could have done that, though I swear that is what I'm thinking..." "Cheepsy!" called Miss Natalie. The furry raccoon appeared again holding a wallet in its furry little paws. "Give me that, Cheepsy, and no nibbling." The raccoon tossed the wallet to Miss Natalie and Miss Natalie handed it to Sarah. "Is this your wallet?" Sarah asked, "And now could you show us your house?"

It was the oddest feeling. Was this little girl speaking to her in a patronizing manner? It seemed so to Aurelia, who didn't take it lightly. Her thoughts were in the league of how dare she? and does she know something? Against her better judgement, Aurelia decided to trust. "I don't know. It was... greyish i guess? I'm not sure." she answered honestly. She didn't really know her animals, to be fair. The things scared her for the most part. And they smelled something dreadful. Her eyes widened slightly as the older lady called out to a raccoon who had her wallet in its paws. Aurelia had half a mind to lunge at it, but she didn't want her eyes to be clawed out. Instead, she waited until the girl and lady retrieved her wallet.
With two slim fingers, Aurelia plucked her wallet out of the little girl's grasp. Thank god. She opened the thing, and after doing a quick scan of its contents, put it back in her pocket, satisfied. "Thanks" she said dismissively to the duo and turned to leave. She still had grocery shopping to do after all. But then, she was forced to stop again by the girl's forceful question. Nutjob, she thought again, and almost made a run for it. She was tired however, and besides, the girl had done her a favor. Aurelia whipped around to face the girl, face impassive.
"I can't. You're weird and I have errands to run." she said bluntly. It was true, heck, she'd been more honest today than she ever had been. But all that had to come to and end, of course. And hopefully she could walk away from all this and pretend it was all a dream. Like, now.

Miss Natalie looked like she was about to explode. "How dare you, you ungratef-" She was cut off as Sarah raised her hand. "She did say thanks and she needs to get home. And Cheepsy was the one that stole her wallet." Sarah looked at her again. "Aura, don't loose your wallet again! We won't be able to help!" she called. "We need to get home," Sarah said loudly. "Miss Natalie, come on, let's investigate her. She sounded in an awful hurry and surely didn't want us to go to her house." In five minutes, Sarah transformed into a taller, silvery-pink-haired girl with blue eyes using leg& foot shape stilts, blue contacts and a wig. "Get going, girl," said Miss Natalie wearing gray contacts and a braided green wig.

Aurelia almost flipped the lady the bird before walking away. Old bat. She hadn't been ungrateful, just spoke her mind. And Sarah was right, she did say thank you. So really, who was she to complain. Stuffing her hands in her pockets, Aurelia shook her head slightly, putting this whole episode out of her head. This town was so weird. She almost wished her mother would hurry up and move them already. Leaving the park, Aurelia stopped at a crossroad. She really needed to buy some groceries, but she looked like such a mess. Would it be better just to go home? She sighed.
There were some cup noodles at home, she could survive on those for today. She wasn't going to go shopping, not when she looked like something a cat dragged in. There was a (cute guy, though Aurelia wouldn't admit it) certain person working at the grocery store whom Aurelia did not want to see looking like this. So with a shrug, she started off home. She definitely lived in the seedy part of town. Borderline ghetto. Her mother couldn't really afford anything else. For the most part, Aurelia didn't mind. Sure, she had to be a little more careful locking up and such, but it was only temporary.
Her house was quite a ways away, so she walked slowly, trying to preserve her energy. It wasn't exactly nighttime, but it was getting darker. Aurelia stared up at the sky while moving forward, admiring the colors when she felt something. Like, she was being watched... She turned around and scanned the area. Nothing. She was just being paranoid. Scoffing, Aurelia continued on, but she couldn't shake the feeling that she was being watched, followed.

"So far she hasn't noticed us but we better change disguises" whispered Sarah and they headed into a small clothes shop. when they came out, they were wearing pop-starry clothes. Sarah had on a blond wig, a pink tank top with a leather jacket, a tight blue jean skirt, pink rosebud tights and shiny black dress shoes. "Miss Natalie, are you sure she has not noticed us yet?"hissed Sarah. "Yes," replied a brown-haired man with a mailman's cap and a loose cubs outfit. The abnormal pair continued walking down the street, waiting for her to stop.

The paranoia continued. Aurelia could literally hear people's footsteps behind her, and it was starting to get a little creepy. The area wasn't a crowded one, and she was the only one on the street. Or she thought she was... Aurelia bit the inside of her cheek and picked up the pace. Like she'd been thinking before, she lived in a seedy neighborhood, rampant with thieves, crooks, and other unpleasant figures. To think one of them could be following her... She squeezed her yes shut. Oh God, why is this happening to me?
Aurelia decided that... well, what did she really have to lose? If it was some crook or rapist, she didn't want to be caught unaware. She came to halt and slowly turned around, ready to scream at the top of her lungs if there was trouble. But no, no trouble, just two shadowy figures in odd clothing. One of them looked familiar... She crossed her arms. "Why the hell are you following me?" she said, her voice curt, yet it wavered a little at the end. Even if they didn't look creepy, these two could still be trouble.

Sarah gulped. Had they been found out? Miss Natalie stopped and said, "We are not following you. I am just delivering the mail. This little lady here is my niece and I brought her with me." Right, maintain cover. thought Sarah. "Hey, uncle, I think this goes here!" Sarah chirped stuffing a piece of blank green paper into the nearest mail box. Miss Natalie flipped it over and looked at it a few seconds. "I think your right, darling. Now, we better deliver the rest." The two skipped off happily. A few minutes later, Sarah came again, this time bouncing a basketball.

Did they think she was stupid? Their explanation was utter crap, and one didn't have to be as perceptive as Aurelia to figure that out. She raised an eyebrow as she studied them, decided that, while they were strange, they were harmless. Letting out a small sigh, Aurelia shook her head with contempt and started to walk away. The world was full of freaks nowadays, first Sarah and now these two. Sometimes she felt like she was the only sane one around. Aurelia smiled a bit at that. That smile slipped off her face as she heard some more sounds behind her. It sounded like... a basketball?
She was going to ignore it. She was. But... oh, her willpower was weak. She wanted to turn around... and almost did until she saw her apartment building looming above her. Her face lit up. Finally. It was dingy and gross, but it was home- for now. She entered the building and headed straight for the stairs. No fancy elevators here. Which sucked, since Aurelia was on the tenth floor. She began climbing slowly. But, oddly enough, she still felt as if she had someone on her tail. Paranoia she told herself again and again. But... "Christ, I'm loosing it" she said out loud, angry with herself.

Going into the building, Sarah tossed her ball onto the roof and went in pretending to search for it. She could just say that she was looking for it, though she might get a few looks when she found it on the roof. When she heard what Aura had said, she felt bad for spying on her. Work is work, thought Sarah, and this is work. She tapped Auras shoulder. I have a missing basketball. Have you seen one around here?" She asked pretending to be very worried.

Her back hurt. Thinking that, Aurelia felt like an old lady laboring home. Well, she was laboring, but she was a healthy and hale teenager, albeit out of shape. Well... she honestly didn't mind the walking that much on normal days, but right now, it was killing her. She really needed to get out more. But that was moot, and as Aurelia got closer to her floor, she grew hungrier. Hungry for cup noodles... what an odd thing. She shrugged it off and was almost there when someone tapped her on the shoulder. Whipping around, Aurelia saw a girl asking about her basketball. Her eyes narrowed.
She'd seen too many weird little kids today. Way too many. More that she'd seen otherwise in a week. So she was a little... suspicious. Besides, she knew for certain that this girl didn't live in the building. Aurelia knew everyone who come and went from here. SO shave her a dismissive "No" and continued on. Once she'd reached her floor, Aurelia stopped and stretched. After feeling a bit... less tense, she went up to her door and pulled out her keys. After trying to open the damn thing several times, the door finally relented and Aurelia went inside. Home sweet home.
It looked more like a pigsty.
