New York City
A ray of piercing light hit Nita's face, startling her awake. With a sigh, she climbed slowly out of her bed. It was the start of a new day. With a frown, which had become Nita's predominant facial expression in recent weeks, Nita fumbled aroundher room, searching for clean clothes. Once she had found a sutible pair of jeans and t-shirt, Nita began to walk down to the kitchen.
A small, rectangular object suddenly became intwined in Nita's legs. Clutching at the wall to keep herself from falling, Nita growled and nudged Diane's manual-creature out of the way with her foot. The small, computer-like being had a way of getting under her feet. With another sigh, Nita tried to control herself before she screamed at her sister for letting her pets get in the way.
Nita made her way down to the kitchen without further incident. She poured a bowl herself a bowl of frosted flakes and opened a time-space pocket to retrive her manual. Flipping through the pages, she came upon the wizard's directory, where name, location, and status of any wizard on earth, below it, or anywhere -for that matter- could be found. Flipping to her own, she was dissapointed to find that her status still remaind inactive. It seemed that she would have to wait at least another day before the Powers That Be needed her. If they ever decided to need her again, that was.
After finshing her breakfast, Nita sent a mind message to Kit to see if he was up yet. The dull and -some how- fuzzy sensation that greeted her as she reached out to his mind let her know that he was still trying to sleep of the jetlag from his last solo-mission. With a feeling of mixed regret and happiness that her partner could not be reached, Nita decided to go on a walk.
"I need to sort out why I feel so jealous of Kit before I talk to him anyways." Nita though to herself as she pulled on a windbreaker. She had never been angry when her partner was called out on solo-missions before, but that could be attributed to the fact that she had also been going on solo-missions at the time. Now, with the sudden silence of the Powers That Be, Nita wasn't sure she liked it so much.
