Chapter Two:
Lines' point of view
I followed the boy down the road; I was going to come closer when he ran into a rat person. I had heard of rat people before being assigned to my charge, but only thought that was left for certain universes. I wondered if this could be one of those particular universes. Now that I think about it, most of these people look like animal people. Maybe this is one of those universes that have animal people running around without being under a vampires influence. God I hate vampires almost as much as I hate gods… I continued to follow along as the boy picked up his ticket. I watched him come up to a square and hand a guy in a ticket booth his; the guy at the ticket booth told the boy that the ticket was a fake. The boy was a bit down by the news. He walked away and did a bunch of things for some people in the town.
He was then found by the same rat person who bumped into him. The rat person had offered to get him into a play if he helped him still the ladder in the middle of the ally. The pointy hat kid agreed and acted as a look out. I had to hide so he did not see me. The kid told the rat that the coast was clear and the rat took the ladder. The kid then played a quick card game with somebody who I think was named Alleyway Jack or something like that. After playing a card game, the kid followed the rat to the bell tower.
The rat carried the ladder to the top but when the kid tried to follow, two furry things with bat wings and pompoms over their heads come out of the bell and knocked the kid down. They introduced themselves and gave him some mail, or at least I thought it was some mail. The rat became restless and told the kid to hurry up. He went up the ladder an out of my sight.
I tuned myself into mist using my ability to control water and followed them. I watched them cross many people's roofs then I saw what they needed to ladder for. They were trying to get into a castle. It was then I realized I was in a capital city and not a town. The rat asked the kid what his name was, the kid said Vivi. The rat said that was a weird name, and that his name was Puck. They used the ladder to get into the castle and ran to see the play just starting. I turned myself back into my human form and watch the play interestedly as I had a feeling something very interesting would happen on this beautiful night.
Vivis' point of view
On this day, I was in town to see a play. I wanted to see the play and the people who were performing the play had given me a ticket. I saw a strange guy appear on the ground out of nowhere but did not think much of it. I continued and ran into a rat person who seemed to be a child sided one. I picked myself up off the ground, straitened up my hat, dusted myself off, and picked up my ticket. I went to the ticket master and showed him my ticket but he said it was a fake and gave me some cards for a card game about monsters to cheer me up. I then played jump rope, helped somebody catch a cat and a bunch of other things.
I then went into an alley to sit in some bar and mope when the same rat person showed up and asked me if I wanted to see the play. I shook my head yes. I went to see if the coast was clear and lied so he could take the ladder and I could learn how to play that card game these cards go to. I then followed the rat to the bell tower.
I tried to follow him up when I was knocked down by mail moogles. They introduced themselves and said I had mail. I took the mail and looked at it, It was a how to guide. "Hey, are you coming or what?" the rat asked out loud. I nodded as I do not talk very much and followed him all the way up the bell tower ladder and across many house roofs.
We finally got to the castle where the play is being held and he used the ladder as a bridge to get in. "So what is your name anyway?" He asked. "Vivi" I replied. "Well that is a weird name." he said. We both went across the ladder and on to watch the play just as it were starting. I clapped as the epic tale of a thief and a princess and their tragic love started.
