2nd Tune [4th wall/Visual/Action]

...H...Hello?

[There's a very young girl peering into the scrolls. She might even be familiar to some.]

...Onii-chan? Teddie? ...Is everyone still here?

[Assuming this was the place she was thinking of.]

I'm...I'm back in the pony world, right? I mean, there are ponies here, but...I'm not a pony anymore.

...Did something happen?

[He would have been content with being unconscious for the rest of forever after everything he'd done. He didn't deserve to be part of this again, but... then he heard Nanako's voice. That was enough to drag Yu back to consciousness, feeling incredibly sore and mentally empty, but she was there on his scroll.]

Nanako-chan...?

[Oh, she knows that voice.]

Onii-chan!

[She's excited to see him, she really is, but even she can tell that something was...off.]

...Are you okay?

...no, I'm not all right.

[There was no use lying to her. He couldn't do that.]

I'm glad you're okay, though.

Y...Y-Yeah...I'm okay...

[She suddenly had a very bad feeling.]

What happened? ...Where are you?

I'm--

[Yu cut himself off, looking around.]

...I'm at the Agency. I... I made a terrible mistake.

...I'm coming...

[She's already walking towards the Agency even as she speaks. She's not sure what happened, but it sounded like Big Bro needed her.]

N-no!

[Yu paused, shrinking back and looking away from the scroll. There was some other things around -- it looked like he had just been thrown onto the couch, not that he was surprised by this. He couldn't really focus on anything; hell, he couldn't even see that well. His vision was swimming, and it took him a moment to realize that tears were in his way. He reached up with his sleeve, swiping at his eyes.]

...I don't want you to see me like this, Nanako.

[She freezes mid-step, confused and suddenly uncertain.]

B...B-But...I wanna see you, Onii-chan...

[...Don't you want to see her?]

[He did; he really did want to see her again. He wanted to hug her and just hold her until it came to the point where he would have to pay for his actions.]

[The only thing was, he didn't deserve that anymore.]

I know, Nanako-chan. I'm sorry.

[She stood for a moment, not sure what to do now. Big Bro didn't want her to see her...she couldn't go to the agency, because that's where he was.

So where could she go now?]

[Yu took a deep breath, rubbing away the tears again, before he forced a smile on his face.]

...you should look for Teddie. He should be around.

[She can tell it's not his regular smile, though, and she can't manage to return it herself.]

Mm...okay.

Hey, Nana-chan...

[Teddie sounds exhausted.]

You're not gonna say anything weird, too, are ya?

Teddie...!

[Why did everyone sound so sad, though?]

Like what?

Oh, you know, like how you're really someone else, or you're from a different world, or are some kind of wizard. I don't know! Just weird stuff...

It's been happening all day and I can't keep up with it anymore.

Oh...no, I don't think so. I'm pretty sure i'm just me.

Oh, thank GOODNESS!!

[If he weren't so drained, he'd be dancing right about now.]

I could really use a just you right about now.

[Aw, poor Teddie!]

Where are you, Teddie? And where's everyone else?

I'm just outside over by the marketplace. I couldn't tell you about anyone else.

[They all kind of went to do their own thing...]

Okay...

[She's been to the marketplace a few times, so she should be able to find him.]

I'll be right there.

[Teddie does his best to put on his best smile.]

And I won't move a muscle!

Okay...I'll be there soon.

[It takes a while, though, as she tries to refamiliarize herself with the town. But once she's figured it out she heads to the market place.]

Teddie!

[Teddie will be resting under a tree nearby, a turtle and...cockroach hanging out on top of his head. By the looks of things, he's napping.

Well, that's one way to keep yourself from wandering off.]

[Walking over, she smiles when she notices the familiar turtle.]

Hi, Peek-chan!

[Then, kneeling down, she gently shakes Teddie.]

Teddie...wake up...

[And of course the turtle beams. In contrast, Teddie can only gurgle in a way that can be described as less than elegant.]

Oh, there you are. [He yawns.] Sorry about that, I've just been reeeeeeaaally tired lately.

[She carefully takes Peek-chan off Teddie's head as the bear stirs.

...W...Was that a roach?]

That's okay...Did something happen around here lately?

[It was indeed, and it even waves at her. Yes hello, Teddie got a new pet and this is it.]

It sure did, and boy was it nasty. I don't really wanna talk about it much, but you should at least know some scary stuff went down. I'm real glad you missed it, Nana-chan.

[It was kind of weird, but at least it seemed like a nice roach. So Nanako gives it a wave as well.]

Oh...I'm sorry I wasn't around to help, though.

[Even if she couldn't do much.]
