The Big Reveal [Plot Event :: Nighttime (2)]

"Okay everybody, the show's about to start!" An announcer's booming voice went over the mic to the large crowd. It was time to organize this place so the stage was not overrun and the staff needed were being blocked out by the various people. It was his job to organize things, even in this madness. "We need to split to two sides so the remaining staff can make it to the stage for the big reveal! Please choose to go to the right, or stay on the left! Please do this in an orderly fashion! I'd rather not turn this into a wake!" The man did a morbid joke, not knowing that deep below the surface there was a woman that would soon give her life to protect all of them. Regardless, he began to direct the people to their proper sides.

"M-mom, wait up, please!" The young Frog waddled through the crowd, trailing the footsteps of a blonde woman dressed all in black leather. Her purple cape danced concubinely in the wind behind her as she turned around and giggled, intentionally seductively, though the notion just passed over her son's head. The younger girl with long brown hair she held by her hand gave her big brother a confused look.

"Ahhh, but I'm just trying to get out of the crowd!" She said in a pathetic way, pretending to wipe the sweat off her forehead, as his sister grinned at his misery. "It's because of this lovely little sister of yours. Can't leave her in this mess! She's gonna get stomped on! Besides, you're grown enough to wander around on your own during these class trips, so you must also be grown enough to keep up the pace with an old lady like me!" She giggled again and, with a flick of her cape, she was gone in the crowd. She even quickened her pace! "Now hurry up, or you're gonna lose me in the crowd, hmhmhm!" Was the last he heard of her before losing sight of her. Even before, Frog's legs, tired from the whole day, could barely keep up with her! She didn't mean anything bad though... Or so he hoped!

"W-wait please!!!" For now, he'd keep going in her general direction, hoping she'd bump her head out all of a sudden to smile at him and start teasing him in a way which didn't include running through a bunch of people after a whole day of standing on his feet!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Somewhere else in the crowd, Frog's dad was wandering about in search of the food court. He wanted to have a bite of something spicy! Hopefully, they had beer on offer as well! Ha, he was so gonna make his son play card games with him when they came back home as punishment for the trouble he'd caused on that day! And then he was gonna beat him!!!

...in the game, of course. Gotcha, hahah!

A little ball of red hair bounced in the middle of the people being separated, moving fast between the bodies before settling in a new place, just to bolt out again. He was, to say the least, looking intently for something.

Liam was alone again, but not at his own will this time. After a good afternoon having fun around the lake and avoiding the responsibilities that his parents wanted him to indulge himself into with a lot of water and cute faces, the three of them decided to go to the main event at the park, which would be both the opportunity to see what the scientists have prepared for so long and to participate in another round of conversations about the boy's future and how they could count with him too for future endeavors as one of the representatives of the family.

But in the midst of so many people gathered in the same place and his agitated nature, he got separated of both of his parents. While not worried about their safety, he would prefer to be accompanied by someone at that hour to at least have someone to talk about until the grand announcement.

Well, figures. Maybe they were in the other side. After all that ended it would be easy to spot them, as two red heads are easier to see than one. The boy proceeded to find a place where e could see things better, crossing paths with an all black clad lady and someone else she was holding hands with, finding her quite peculiar before trying to look between the masses. Where they really not there? And wasn't ANY higher place for him to have a better look around there?

Athena wandered with the crowd the way a tiny rock is moved to the tide. She didn't care where the crowd was going she was too busy studying each one of them, especially the women. With every passing hour the detective's words range heavier. If he was right, if those women were truly dangerous then the entire city was at risk. Surely stopping them would make her famous and that was the young girl's dream but at that moment the only thing that was on her mind was locating these people, the reward would come later. She placed her hand inside her jacket's pocket feeling the tube she had be given during her visit at the Aquarium and her only weapon. Still despite her keen eye she was unable to find someone matching the descriptions the detective spoke about, she was able to spot some who could potentially be the culprits but after studying their faces Athena realized that they couldn't possibly be the ones she's been looking for. She raised her head and her eye's met the announcer's, it would have been difficult for him to spot her in such crowd even with her peculiar hair color.

"A big reveal before the big reveal. I'm running out of time."

She said to herself as she toyed with her fingers in a nervous gesture. This event was certainly the big reveal of today, meaning their own meeting would take place soon enough. She was certain that the women were going to show up at the park if only she could find a way to prevent at least one of them from completing her task then she was going to prevent the catastrophe the detective spoke of. With little luck he or the other woman she met at the Aquarium would take care of the other woman.

The day went fairly well. Despite some uncalled for occurrences, like a prankish white whale spitting water on her and getting her soaked for a long time, she had fun. It was very difficult for the orphanage managers to organize excursions and bring a different kind of entertainment for the children under their care. Made her think that, despite the harshness in their treatment, they truly cared for those under their wings. It didn't help that, despite their recommendations for the group to stay together, Brittany quickly dispelled from her friends. It was not meant to be intentional, unlike the two previous occasions in that day. This time, she actually meant it. She had always heard stories about people kidnapping unwary children, small tales told to scare the children, grant their obedience and keep them in line...but who would want her? No one had in all of these years until really recently...and no one ever would. What bad does it do to want to lose yourself for a while, right? And losing herself in the middle of a crowd seemed way better of an option than giving in to the boredom of old companies who didn't pay enough mind to her existence anyway. The feeling of not having a familiar face among so many heads could be alluring, thrilling and welcoming at the same time.

...and yet, she found one single familiar face, amidst the crowd. Was it possible? Yes, it was possible! Memory didn't fail her; it was him! Frogerio, or rather, Frog. Somehow, seeing the young boy, recognizing him in the crowd made her heart flutter and her eyes smile in an anxious, unique way. She had enjoyed meeting him during the morning time. He didn't take her for a weirdo either, he didn't even treat her for the wrong gender either, despite the horrible masculine clothes she had to use, unlike the other girls around her age. And the fact he was still there meant she could talk to him again. Anyway, the fact he was still around meant he probably spent the whole day in the R&D buildings, just like her! It was unfortunate they had to part their ways, due to their superiors' demands...but at least they could meet again at night!

"Noooooooooooooo! I wanna see the reveal! I wanna see the reveal!"

A young girl sobbed and screeched as loudly as humanly possible --much to the chagrin of her parents and those around her. As her mother dragged her through the crowd by the back of the hood she'd kick the air furiously with tears streaming down her face; the child repeating the same plea over and over again, but growing louder each time she said it. "I wanna see it! I wanna see it! I wanna see it!" She cried out at the top of her lungs. Of course, she wasn't nearly loud or noticeable enough to disrupt the event, but she certainly did attract the attention and glares of the patrons around her. Some time passed, but eventually the two gave into the wails and pleas of the child.

"Fine! Fine! You can stick around for the reveal. But don't think you're off the hook young lady. When we get home we're going to have a VERY serious talk. Do you understand me Miyuki?" The mother asked in a harsh tone.

MIYUKI FUJIMOTO
A young girl with the grin of a cheshire cat. Trouble seems to follow her wherever she goes.

It took Miyuki a lot of effort to keep her lips from curling into a triumphant smile. Retaining her frown and nodding silently, she cut back on the stream of crocodile tears and slowly let them die down into a fit of fake sniffles. The child was no fool -- she knew how to get what she wanted. Even the most unforgivable of actions could be overlooked as long as she threw a fit and caused enough of a ruckus. It was something she had discovered a long time ago; a truth which she had exploited to her gain ever since then. Burying her face into the back of her mother's shirt and hugging her waist tightly, the child would follow her exasperated and embarrassed guardians as they moved into the second of two lines.

Frog's mom danced happily through the crowd, away from her son, pulling her daughter along with her. Not that the young girl complained. Nonono, she was all for teasing her older brother, and always on their mom's side. Her eyes darted around through the jungle of legs, following her mother's shining leather around and feeling the warmth of her pale palm. But then, through the masses, her eyes caught something new. A boy. He was older than her, yes, but did it really matter? Maybe she could... No, she couldn't and wouldn't! It would only cause her problems, wouldn't it? W-wait, what was her hand doing!? Reaching out to him and... grabbing him by his shirt!?

"Hmmm?" The mother stopped the moment she felt the weight she'd ended up pulling was too much to be just her daughter and turned around, only to see her youngling yanking at some unknown boy's shirt. The girl immediately blushed hard as blood rushed to her cheeks and let go of the boy, hiding behind her mother, who began to eye the boy suspiciously, but with a curious grin on her face. Like a mountain-lioness. Yes, that was a good comparison, even if she hated cats. Though, lions were all right, she supposed. Her son was a lion, after all. A frog-lion! "Well then..." She began after a short period of silence, two fingers on her chin as she kneeled down to the boy. "What do we have... Huh, Frogerio?" Her eyes moved up from the boy's face. Was that her son running at them... Oh boy...

"M-MOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!" Frog bellied from the depths of his lungs, running towards his mother, eyes closed as they caught on the wind and clothes of everyone around as he ran. That being said, he didn't notice the boy standing between him and his mother... And he crashed straight into him, falling back on his butt. For the third time in the park already..........

And his sister, she snickered, but then realized what had happened at looked at the mess with eyes wide in her surprise surprise.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Somewhere else in the park, Frog's dad walked around searching for his wife and children. She must've gotten done with punishing their son already. The boy always got so flustered when either of them joked around with him, they ended up finding the method so useful and employed it as a punishment for the boy. His hands filled with various foods he'd gotten at the court and drinks he'd gotten back from his car, he pretty much walked aimlessly. Yet still, however unbelievable it may have sounded, he couldn't find them! He just couldn't!!! He had to rest up a bit, maybe open a can or two. And so he did, he stopped right next to the open spot in the crowd by the young girl with the pink hair. She seemed to be buzzing around and he was never the one to shy away from interactions. Might as well ask. Besides, he practically worked with kids on a daily basis, so it wasn't like it would be weird. With a grin and a wink, the deal was sealed immediately.

Liam looked around a little more before deciding to bolt out again, finding a more favorable spot to see everyone in that side of the crowd. As soon as he decided to take a step, he felt something grabbing him, and turned around happily thinking his parents finally found him there.
Much to his surprise, he looked up to find nothing, only to lower his vision and see a girl clinging to his shirt.

....Uoh, What?

He looked at her rather confused when he had to stop himself mentally from running, only to see her blushing violently and running away from him, behind someone. Why was she running anyway? Everything that was happening was very confusing for him. Then he noticed that it was that woman with strange clothes from before that the girl was standing behind. She was eyeing him from head to toe, and he would glance back, confident, greens eyes piercing and right posture, just like his mother has taught him. You will not be a dragon with you don't act like one, right?

Why are you...

If things couldn't be more strange, the boy turned around just in time to almost headbutt the other boy that came right at him, full speed. Due to the force of the impact he lost his balance for a moment, flailing his arms around before stopping in place again, looking around even more confused.

What is happening around here???

The red-haired shook his head and buffed, looking at all the three new meetings he have, before letting out a sigh and extending his and to the boy on the floor.

I'll help you get up and you all will explain to me what is happening, okay? Hmph

The words of a man calling her broke Athena from the mini trance she was in. He was an old unattractive man, he must have been around her father's age perhaps a bit older. He seemed to be looking for someone as well though his intentions were probably far different than hers. "It seems that every man who approaches me today is looking for a woman." She joked before she placed her hands inside her pockets, the tube was still there. "Let me think for a moment. I think I have seen a woman like that." Studying every person she came across ended up proving useful. Not many women wore capes, it was so kitschy but each person had the freedom to make their own mistakes. "I saw one. She had a couple of kids with her but I'm afraid I don't know where she is now." Athena didn't have the time to search for a third woman, though this one was bound to be easier to find. "I remember her heading that way... but I'm not certain, sorry."

It all happened too fast for her to register orderly in her memory, but...she did catch on all the events that succeeded in front of her. First, she saw a woman and a girl who Frog followed incessantly, presumably his relatives. His mother and the sister he mentioned earlier that day. So, that was a family meeting... Alright. It was good she didn't go there to greet the boy at all. Somehow, it also made her a tiny bit melancholic. Envious. She didn't have a family to spend her time with...

...or to stumble upon as well. If she once had a rather sad face, the moment after she was snickering and laughing under her breath and covering her lips with both hands. It was forthright hilarious to her. She probably should go there and help Frog to stand up already, but...nah. There were enough people to provide him assistance and she was still feeling awkward at the mere possibility of being seen by his family. Nah, she could very well skip the embarrassment.

"M-MOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!"

A sense of deja vu struck Miyuki as the sound of a boy crying out for his mother reached her ears. That voice... It was familiar to her. The event was nearly about to start, but hey, a single look in its direction couldn't hurt, could it? Curiosity having overwhelmed her young mind, Miyuki would look over to the direction where the voice was coming from. And, when she did, she'd be greeted with the familiar face of Frogerio. "Well, well. It's a small world after all." She thought to herself with a grin on her face.

Part of her was tempted to sneak off again, but it didn't seem like it'd be possible... even for someone like her. The eyes of her parents were glued to her, so without something to distract them it didn't seem she'd be going anywhere. A disappointed sigh escaped from her lips. It seemed she wouldn't be able to have any more fun with the boy today. Still, there was nothing stopping her from observing the situation. So, for the time being, she'd focus her eyesight on him and those surrounding him.

"Yow... Three times..." Frog yelped on the ground. Damn that woman, his mother! All she ever did was embarrass him wherever they went... And so mean... She should've stopped! He knew she was punishing him in her own way, but what was there to punish even!? He didn't call them, yes, but it also wasn't his intention to stay the day at R&D. They left him there, ditched him! And he was the bad guy... Like always.

But who did he even crash-land into? Opening his eyes, Frog was met with a picture of an unknown boy, extending his hand to help him up. Frog didn't take it... Out of politeness and... because he could get up himself. And so he did, pushing himself with his hands, he stood back up and dusted himself off before muttering an apology to the boy and running over to his mom's side. "Mooom! Don't do that, please..." He looked up at the woman, but she, she was looking somewhere else-at a certain young girl with short brown hair, who had been looking at her son for the past few moments after he'd fallen. She had a nose for these motherly things, and besides, this was a few moments too long to be just a coincidence. Frog followed his mother's look towards the girl. It took him a moment of confused staring to realize that he knew her. From that day, actually. "B-brit?" He muttered, his mother clenching onto the words like a predator she was. Taking the initiative, she walked over to the girl and gave her a warm smile.

"Hello there." She said warmly, hands crossed, as Frog behind her looked in terror.

His sister stayed behind and kept looking at the boy. She couldn't decide how to act...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"That way?" Mark turned to look in the direction the girl had pointed to. He couldn't see her there. She was probably somewhere in the crowd. He doubted this girl was lying. Why would she? He pulled out a phone from his pocket and went on to dial the number. After a couple of moments, he put it back down. As expected, his wife wasn't picking up. He sighed and looked back at the pile of food he brought. Time to continue the search.

(OOC: Guys, if anyone's against continuing the interactions and wants to move on to the demon stuffs, discuss it among yourselves and make a decision. I'm all for interactions but that would be selfish of me. If you decide you want plot, contact Phile and just tell her to post. If anyone else wants to post before that happens if you reach that verdict, feel free to do so. I don't want part in that decision, do it yourselves, I'm already trying my best to ivolve everyone but I can't. Frog out.)

Okay, now he was completely lost again. The boy did not take his hand and instead, run directly to his mom. They both looked away from the red-haired one to a different direction and a different person, going on to talk to her instead of explaining to him what all of that was about.
He let out a sigh scratching his head before turning to the girl, the only one who stood behind and was still looking in his actual direction, and tried to get a little bit of information on what just happened.

...Uh... So...Hi?

He figured that if the girl didn't respond to him, his best bet was to interfere into the other two conversation with the new girl who was around them now to figure out things, but that seemed like a better opportunity, as she was the one who pulled his shirt in the first place.

Athena waved the man goodbye and continued her search. Still no sign of the women. She began losing hope and excuses began forming in her mind. Perhaps the man and the other woman managed to track them down, perhaps they didn't even appear. Everything seemed so peaceful out there, to be fair the event was rather chaotic and the people around her could hardly be called serene but at least nobody was panicking and most looked like they were having a good time. "I guess I'm worrying too much." She said to herself as she removed her hands from her jacket. She was wandered far from her family already, she was trusted by both her parents but it wasn't wise to be gone for long lest they get angry and begin the curfew talk again.

...wait.... Was it...? No, it couldn't truly be. On the other hand, why would the woman stare at her back? Oh Lord, she probably noticed the girl was looking to her son for too long. Darn it! Brittany knew she should have been more...discreet about it. Oh my, she was coming to her! Why??

"...H-hello there, Ma'am!", she said, almost as a stuttering whisper. The Lady would easily tell Brittany didn't expect the sudden approach. In fact, it left the young girl quite uncomfortable. At least, she did treat her correctly, despite the boyish appearance and outfit she unwillingly had. Brittany looked behind her one more time...to Frogerio's face...and quickly averted her eyes to a different point, his Mother's face, her freckles gradually fading into the faint reddening covering the young girl cheekbones. "...Sorry! I didn't mean to keep looking that long!"
