New OC approaching!

Chapter 2 A new town, a new companion, and some bad news?

Eric wondered What's going to happen to everyone. "Sora, Riku, Kairi, where are you," he muttered silently, lying against a brick wall. "Hey, are you gonna be ok," a female voice asked from somewhere very close by. He slowly came around and suddenly sat straight up. "HEY! WATCH IT," the voice screamed. Now that he was awake the voice sounded small. Looking around he found nothing. Then he noticed a small bouncing light. "What. . . are. . . ." he began to ask; however' the small bouncing light interrupted him "My name is Lluathlye and I'm a Poncle." She said bouncing around in front of Eric. "A Poncle," Eric asked, head tipping slightly. "You've never heard of a Poncle? I could have sworn. . . never mind," the poncle said, stopping its hopping around. "My name's Eric," he said to Lluathye, "But if you don't mind I have to find my friends." "Your not gonna leave little old me here by myself are you," Lluathye said jumping onto Eric's shoulder, "If you don't mind I'll just stay here on your shoulder. I'll help you out if you need it." "Alright," Eric said grudgingly "But I'm gonna call you Lu, alright? Now I'm going to find my friends." "Fine by me. I have to find people too," Lu said bouncing, "I need to find my brother." "Your brother have a name," Eric asked not really caring what she said. "Of course he does. His name is Issun. . . I think," Lu said quietly. "Well let's get moving. We have to find my friends first," Eric said looking about "Where are we anyway?" A hand tapped Eric on his right shoulder making him jump and turn quickly with the small shield thing in front of him. "That's no way to treat a lady," the voice said in a serious tone. "Who are you," Eric asked, not moving "And what are you doing here?" "I'm here to help you out. It seems like your lost. My name is Princess Garnet til Alexandros xvii, what is your name," a young girl stepped out into the light of a street lamp. She had long black hair and dressed in a white mage's cloak. "My n-name is E-Eric," he stuttered at the new girl. Garnet giggled slightly and motioned for Eric to follow her.

In the Third district in a small abandoned house.

"Hey, Loche I found someone. Is he the one that they were looking for," Garnet called out into the seemingly empty house, when suddenly he saw another man leaning on the grandfather clock who he assumed was Loche. As the guy walked over he could feel Lu trying to hide behind him (something relatively easy for her due to her size.) The man looked intently at Eric and said, "If he is we're in trouble Garnet." Eric stared at the man and said with his voice shaking slightly, "Are you Loche?" The man gave a slight smile and said, "Yes, I am Loche. Treasure Hunter extraordinaire." "In other words your a thief," Eric said very quietly. Loche gave a small sigh and asked in a tone that showed that Eric had hit a nerve, "Can you wield the keyblade?" Eric asked, "What's a keyblade." At this point Lluathye jumped onto Eric's head and said, "Just who do you think you are? Asking us questions while we have to find our friends." Loche gave a shout of surprise and jumped back which gave Garnet a reason to laugh and Eric and Lluathye joined in. Loche looked at Garnet with surprise, and goodhearted humor and nearly shouted, "Why didn't you warn me about that! I nearly had a heart attack!" Garnet just laughed and said, "Because you never asked." Eric would have continued laughing at Loche's surprise until he remembered something. "Where are my friends? What happened to my friends," he shot these questions out before anything else could distract him. Loche gave Garnet a look that Eric realized that he was about to get really bad news. "I don't know how to tell you this, so I'll be blunt about it. Your home was probably destroyed by the heartless. If your looking for your friends, they might be here, they might not," Loche began. Eric couldn't here the rest. Sora, Kairi, Riku? Gone forever? These thoughts made Eric faint. Garnet shot Loche a look. He looked back at her averted his eyes as he shrugged and placed Eric's limp body on the bed.
