Last in Unknown Foreigner...
I still need to apologize to Joker and the residents of the amusement park.
Doesn't she need a role holder to accompany her to any other territory?
Hey, where did that girl go?
Who went with her?
I don't know Elliot.
Natalie Pov.
I flew quickly to the circus as the time changed again to night. Darn! how am I going to find one of the Jokers now? I arrived at the circus fairly quickly, and searched for White. I found him about to go into the main tent. "Wait!" White turned around at the sound of my voice, unaware he was looking to low to spot me. I landed in front of him, and changed back to how I looked when I lived.
"Oh! So that was you who called," White said with a pleasant smile on his face. I quickly caught my breath, and nodded. He grew a smirk, and beckoned me closer. "Come on, you must be tired." I gave a small smile and followed him inside.
Inside, I noticed that the tent was empty. Why would he want to go in here? There are no other rooms in here, and there is nothing to do. I gave a small squeak as he pulled me close. I looked up at his smiling face as the world around me twisted and turned, changing into the same room that I was in the last time I was here. I saw Black doing paper work in the corner. White let go, and looked at me.
"Now, what is it that you wanted to say?" Black looked up with small interest at his counterpart's words.
"Well, I want apologize for what happened at the amusement park the-"
"Witch was funny." I looked over at Black, leaning back in his chair as he interrupted me. I looked back at White, and continued.
"And for the time I ran away. I made you angry, and I don't want anyone angry because of me. That is all. I will go now if you want me to." Joker stared at me with wide eyes as I said this. I meant what I said, and I want them to know that.
"an interesting girl," said Joker, a smile barely visible on their faces. I was surprised to hear a laugh coming from behind me. I turned around to see a girl sitting on the dresser in the corner. She had red eyes, black skinny jeans, a red and black checkered short sleeved shirt, black high tops with white laces, and black hair that went to what I could only assume was her tail. Her tail was that of a wolf, long and shaggy. It was black, like her clothes, and her ears. Her ears were the same size of Boris's, and tilted back, as she uncontrollably laughed.
"Aw, are you replacing me Joker?" She said as she jumped off of the dresser. She walked up to me and smirked. "So, you are the one who cleaned up Black? I like you," she said as she turned around, and walked over to Black, sitting on his lap. I juts stared at her. I didn't know there was another role holder here. But maybe, she isn't. Joker smiled at the girl, and Black wrapped his arms around her.
"I didn't know there was another outsider here." She smiled at me, and leaned into Black. White, who was standing next to me, turned to me.
"She isn't an outsider." I looked over at the girl, and started laughing. She glared at me, and gave a small growl.
"What do you find funny girly?" Black gave a small chuckle, and White smirked at her.
"Now Layla, be nice to our guest. she is the new foreigner, and we need to make sure she likes you," said White. Layla turned her glare to White.
"I don't think that you are funny, I think that it's funny they have a lupine-ajin all to themselves, and they think you have a clock for a heart," I said. Layla snapped her head in my direction, and started laughing. Joker looked confused at my words, but they looked even more confused when Layla started laughing.
"Yeah, you're right," said Layla, now giggling a little. Joker looked even more confused, and Black looked about to explode.
"What the he-," started Black, but I quickly put a stop to his word. Layla started laughing again, but even harder this time. Black stood up quickly, and dropped Layla, not that it mattered to her. She was now rolling in laughter, while White was holding down his laughs and giving a hand to Layla. Black stormed over to me, and grabbed my neck, holding me in the air.
"You do that one more time, and I will tear off that arm of yours. Now, get out before I beside to kill you now," he said, throwing me on the ground. I got off the ground, and walked out, heading for the amusement park.
No One Pov
"Don't worry Black, she'll be back. She didn't play cards," said Layla, holding on to White's arm. Black, turned around, and looked at her.
"You're right. White, you play the game with her." White looked disappointed.
"Why must it be me?"
"Because, if I play, I will end up killing her."
"I'll play with her. I need to talk a bit to her anyways. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll go find her," said Layla. She quickly gave Joker a peck on the cheek, and walked out the door. She followed the sent of the girl, almost loosing her when she changed into a bird. Layla some how caught up with the bird that was Natalie. when they reached the border of the territories, Natalie started to fall, hitting the invisible barrier that separated the territories. She changed back into her self, and stood up.
"Ow! I need to stop doing that," said Natalie, not knowing that a wolf was watching her. Natalie brushed off the dirt that clung to her green skirt. Natalie took a deep breath, and was instantly covered in pink smoke. When it cleared, Natalie walked through the invisible barrier. Before she could get to far away, Layla called out to Natalie. Natalie turned around to see Layla run into the invisible barrier, made to keep outsiders in their territory. Natalie smiled at Layla.
"You have a heart," stated Natalie.
"And you are a role holder," said Layla.
Well, I have been thinking about this for a while. Layla is based off of a girl I know who I wouldn't call a good friend, but not a bitter enemy. We hate each other, but the real Melody keeps us in check. Who is Melody? You will find out later. Well, now you know how it was done. Natalie is a role holder, and Joker's girl has a heart unknown to Joker. Any questions, ask away. Also, I would like to ask anyone who is reading this story to tell me what other anime/mange they want me to have Natalie in. I have thought about Kuro, Fruba, Death Note, and Ouran. Tell me what you think. Hope you liked the chapter.
