who. everyone!
what. entering omega.
where. landing pads
when. today
warnings. none for now

You’re not sure how it happened.

A minute ago, you had somewhere to go, someplace to be. Maybe something important to do, or maybe you were just going out to buy groceries. Whatever it was, it doesn’t matter anymore.

You’re in some kind of transport -- a shuttle, given the turbulence and the sounds outside. You’re surrounded by strangers, some of whom might not even be the same species you are. There’s no point in asking. They don’t know how they got here either. The cockpit’s blocked off, like someone forgot to put in a door, and not even a glance at your omni-tool -- a holographic interface accessible by merely tapping the sensor on your left arm -- is any help.

You’ve only got a minute or so before the shuttle starts descending. There aren’t any windows -- this doesn’t look like a shuttle meant for long trips. When it finally touches down, the doors open automatically.

Before you are landing pads, abandoned equipment scattered about. There are other shuttles landing, and whether you like it or not, you’re going to have to get off before yours dumps you out the door. Turn around, and you’re met with a hazy skyline, only half the buildings seem to be coming from above.

Welcome to Omega.

[There's a it of staring, and frustration, and sadness because Naruto was going to fail no matter how hard he tries, and finally Ino just...sighs.

He wouldn't fail the army though when the time came to come back. She's sure of it.]

Just don't get too upset when you realize I was right.

[Naruto just waves a hand at her. He doesn't look too concerned about it. There's a way back, he knows it, and he'll find it. He'd go himself right now, but he's not going to leave the one person he recognizes. Besides, his clones are more than capable of doing pretty much anything he needed to do by themselves.]

What're you playin' with on your arm?

[Just like changing the subject when they were talking about Sasuke after the fight with Pein.]

[Except this subject wasn't going to make her cry.

She blinks at the change and then looks down at it, the screen is still up with lists of all the space stations in the known galaxy. Then maybe Thor was in a different galaxy and it was just impossible to transfer until it was back in this one. Right, makes sense. Why would they say it didn't exist?

Well, back to the question at hand before she released her frustration on Naruto again.]

I don't know what it's called but you have one too.

[Points at it and then leans over to press the button that activated hers. Have an orange screen, Naruto. Your favorite color. Funnily enough, it's Ino's too.]

[He jumps and starts waving his arm a bit. The orange screen just stays because omni-tools.]

HEY...! It's... whoa, the hell is this? IT'S...!

[Now he's lifting his arm and looking under the screen and at all angles to it and then passing his other hand through it repeatedly.]

No, really... what is it?

[She dodges his waving around and just being dumb]

Would you calm down! You're going to hit someone!

[Well, Ino can't say she didn't do that too, she was just more...graceful about it all. Less violent. She's more used to this sort of thing anyway from being on the Thor and all its technological advancements.]

It's a communication device...I think. I was using it to look for something but it seems like it has a lot of functions. Here, I'll try and contact you.

[After looking for his name, she's typing a message to him. It's some hanakotoba because Ino.

Send.]

[Beep goes his omni-tool. He stops flailing and actually stares at it, and it's now that he realizes it has words and shit and pictures on here. So it's a communication device? It's way different from the walkie-talkies back home.]

Flowers?

[He taps on some of the keys and then taps out his own message, but since he doesn't really know how to send the message, it just blinks on his own screen:

ramen ]

[Since he won't show her she'll move over, right next to his side and peer at what he wrote.]

Ramen?

[He just eyes her and ignores the fact that she seems annoyed at what he wrote because it didn't go to her orange-arm-walkie-talkie-book thing.]

Why didn't it go to yours?

You have to press send.

[But don't send it to her she doesn't want your ramen message. There's a forlorn sigh and she finally moves back into her own personal space.]

I wish you would remember something. It would make this a lot easier if you did. Not just because I don't have to explain it all to you, but then I would know I'm not completely insane.

[Because the possibility remains that she really did just imagine it all...]

Edited 2013-02-04 04:59 (UTC)

[He presses 'send' anyways because he wants to make sure it works. There's a beep at Ino's omni-tool, and he smiles in triumph even as she talks about being insane.]

Eh? You say somethin'?

[Can she throttle the hero of her village and get away with it?

But she just groans to herself. Really, anybody else would be okay too. She doesn't know if she can handle Naruto without some help. He's too much.]

Nevermind.

[Oh, good. She didn't say anything important. Then he's just going to type something else on his little toy and send it to her again.

hi ino it's naruto can you read this? ]

[What? A message? Naruto had already sent her that stupid ramen one. She opens it up with a little difficulty and more than enough curiosity. Still getting used to this thing.

And when she does--] ...Geez.

Yes, Naruto. I can read it.

[That makes snicker and start playing around with it more, getting out of the message screen and looking at the other options. Sure, he has no clue what any of it means, but it's all kind of cool and fun to play around with.

And even though it looks like he's not paying attention to anything except the omni-tool while he types on it, he chirps: ]

You shouldn't worry so much. We'll figure out a way outta here and be home in no time. Besides, it's not like we're alone or anything, y'know.

[At least she knows this is really Naruto. That had been pretty similar to what he had said before.

Yeah, alone. That's what Ino worried about the most. As annoying and intense as Naruto could be, she was honestly glad she wasn't all by herself for this.

So while she would regularly tell him to stop ignoring her, she doesn't this time and just lets him play with his new toy.]

Right!!

Just don't get too distracted with that thing or you're never going to get anything done.

I'm not gonna get distracted.

[Except he probably will.

He rolls his eyes and snickers before looking over at Ino again. Well, his clones will find out something. While they're looking, he might as well gather some information with Ino too.]

We should probably look around too, y'know.

[He definitely will, if she knew Naruto at all. Suffice to say, she had a pretty good idea of his character after practically growing up with him. She didn't know him like she did Shikamaru or Chouji but he wore his heart on his sleeve and that much was enough to know.

Ino's face takes on a more serious look and she nods. They could find information on the omni-tool most likely, since it was so much like the Guide, but it was better to get a handle of your surroundings first to find advantageous spots for ambush and...other ninja things.]

Yeah. Come on.

[She takes the lead and starts walking down a shady hallway, looking nervous and glancing around.]

What's up with this place?

[Naruto quickly follows after her, not looking nervous at all. He's fine -- as far as he's concerned, this is a little diversion. They'll figure out a way back to the battlefield in no time at all. Ino and he might find something before his clones do.]

Looks kinda... weird.

[He might not be nervous, but he does realize how strange this place is.]

Feels empty.

[Even though they're surrounded by people.]

[Weird is...an understatement. It's the complete opposite of Thor. Of Konoha. They both definitely had their more dirty spots, but this place was out of control and just felt wrong.

Because she feels like she's being stared at, she'll slow down so the two of them can walk side by side. If anyone decided to attack, they couldn't go for one without the other knowing. She just had a feeling it was going to happen, too.

She looks over her shoulder to check. Nothing, just more people glaring and watching.]

Feels creepy to me, especially with all these people staring.

[People are staring? He doesn't notice, especially he's more concerned with figuring out how to get back and all the time they're wasting right now. Dammit, his clones should have found something by now, right?]

Just stare right back.

[SHRUG]

Only you would be okay with that.

[They're shady and they glare and though Ino isn't scared to fight to protect herself, and even Naruto, she can't help but be nervous. Who were these people? Ugly looks are something she got a few times on Thor but it seems like everyone hates her. It's a different sort of look. Like everyone is targeting her.]

What good would that do anyway? Staring contests aren't going to make them look away.

[He just rolls his eyes. It's not like he's thought this through, Ino. They're staring? Stare right back! It's that simple because maybe then they'll feel how uncomfortable you are about all this when the same thing is happening to them.]

I'm just sayin', y'know. Besides, it's not like they can hurt us when we're together.

I doubt that would stop them from trying.

[Didn't stop the Purists. If a big enough group with the same goals had that in mind, they could only fight back. At least she looks away now, facing forward and where they're going.

....Where are they even going?]

Do you even know where we're going?

...

I was following you until you started walking next to me.

[S I G H S lol] Well then just let me lead.

[Because she likes doing that. They'll probably get lost or whatever. She takes them down a few hallways until they reach a dead end, making Ino stop and stare at the wall and then people behind them. Still watching. Were they herding the two?

It's pretty obvious to everyone that these two are really new here. Easy targets. Or so it would seem.]
