"Where am I?" thought the orange hair kunochi as she walked around in the center of Gran Pulse. "Ayane? Hayate? Anyone?!" Kasumi yelled out as her little echoes start to spread like a sound wave. Suddenly, she heard footsteps... fast footsteps. Coming near her, she stood there wondering what or who is it. Kasumi heard laughter; it was a girl and a boy. It sounded like they are chasing each other, so she ran and hid behind a rock. She sneakily stared at what's going on. "Hey! Wait!" the girl said as she was giggling. The girl ran past the rock and Kasumi saw her hair. It was bright reddish/pinkish hair with curly pigtails and the boy had whitish/grayish hair. Kasumi watched them for about a couple of minutes until they got tired and sat in the soft, green, grass watching the clouds move.
Then it got quiet, really quiet… dead silence was happening for the past 3 minutes until the girl gasped as something startled her. After the few seconds, she started to scream. Kasumi was shocked when weird looking monsters started attacking the girl. "Noo"! The boy yelled as Kasumi sprang into action and kicked the puma's face lunging it to the ground, while the other puma was going to claw her from behind. The girl got up and stared at what's happening, she pointed her finger at the puma and a large amount of wind blew the puma away saving Kasumi from a scratched face. She stared at the boy and the girl as she got up. "Are you guys ok?" Kasumi asked. "We are all right but you know we could of handle it ourselves." As the girl kept talking, Kasumi listened to her pretty, Australian accent. "Wow" Kasumi thought.
"Well we are going to introduce ourselves, right?" the boy asked quietly. Kasumi looked at the both of them and said "I'm Kasumi, and you are?" "Oh… I'm Vanille and this is Hope." Hope looked curious; he looked at Kasumi for a moment and gazed at her long, straight, orange hair flowing into the wind. Then Hope said "I-I can tell you're not from here are you?" "No, and this is your home right?" Kasumi asked. "Well my home, Gran Pulse!" Vanille cheered. "Wait Vanille, where are the others? " We are lost!" Vanille shouted. Kasumi got worried herself because she is lost too.
