Summary: Cirno is going to find out what just happened

Cirno was just stareing at her PDA. She had come over to the lake as usual to think over the past round. It was her usual spot if she didn't have anything to do and the waters let her mind wander a bit more then she would usualy. That message had her confused as did the sender.

The system is undergoing maintenance. Please pardon any difficulties in the near future. - Kotaro

As she was stareing, That's when the penalty hit and she went down on the ground to curl up in a ball. She felt that at least this way, no one could see that this hurt her, even if she was alone. She kept that way for a while, at least ten minutes past the ending of it, nto sure if that was it or not.

As she sat up once more and reached for the blank PDA she spoke to herself mostly, "Tame ni sono nandatta no... ? Dareka ga futatabi orokana nanika o shinakatta..." 1

She looked about and frowned, "To watashi wa densha no naka de kare o mimasendeshita. ... Shin Kotaro ga modotte teniireta... Nani ga okotte iru nodeshou ka?"2

She's going to be there a while trying to figure out what is going on...

((OOC- She speaks in Japanese but unless you know her well, her accent or just how she says things makes no sense. GOOD LUCK!
Translations!
1- What was that for...? Did somebody do something stupid again...
2- And when did Kotaro get back....I didn't see him on the train...What's going on?))

Cirno heard that shouting and took off towards it. When she spots Yuka and runs to the edge, shouting out, "Yuka! Daijōbudesuka? Nani ga okotta no ka? Sono penarutideshita ka?"

She looked very worried and upset. Something was just not right and it had her on edge now.

((Are you okay? What happened? Was it that penalty?))

Strange. Cirno's voice sounded different. Well, not really the sound, but something about the word choice and sentence structure seemed off. But she could still understand it.

"I'm alright now. It just caught me at a bad time."

Her mood was definitely ruined now. She climbed out of the lake and headed for the niche where she'd stashed her bag. "Did you feel that sudden pain too? I was looking at some of the plants in the lake when all of a sudden..."

With little regard for modesty, she took off her swimsuit and threw it over another rock. She'd swiped a towel from the dorms earlier, which she started drying herself off with.

Cirno blushed brightly and turned away. Usualy she wasn't one about modesty but she was learning, again, this place keeps teaching her things! "Un, watashi wa sore o kanjimashita. Soreha... Tsūjō no penaruti wa arimasendeshita watashi wa daremoga mina o eru tame ni naniwoshita to wa omowanai... Soshite, zero ika no mono wa akka shite iru. Nanika no machigattanode, watashi wa nani o hashiranai wa."

She is rambleing a bit, looking down at her dark PDA, "To PDA ga dōsa shite imasen. ... Naze Kotaro wa, mentenansu ni kansuru messēji o sōshin surudeshou ka?"

((Yeah I felt it. That wasn't a normal penalty..I don't think anyone did anything wrong to get everyone...and the below zero ones are worse. So something's wrong, I just dunno what.

And the PDA isn't working....Why would Kotaro be sending a message about maintenance?))

Oh! That's right. Cirno didn't remember her from before arriving here, so this would seem strange to her. Sometimes it was too easy to fall back into her usual habits...

(Although Yuka had to admit, she might have done the same thing regardless. After what happened this morning, she thought her ability to be embarrassed might have been permanently damaged.)

Either way, she was committed now, wasn't she? So she finished drying off and put her regular clothes back on.

Lacking any real ideas on the situation, she just replied, "Strange..."

And a moment later, "Kotaro?"

Cirno just nods a bit, peeking over her shoulder. When she saw that Yuka was dressed she turns back around, although still blushing a bit. "Un, subete ga okotta mae ni, watashi wa shisutemu mentenansu ni tsuite Kotaro kara messēji ga todokimashitashi, atatta. Shikashi... Watashi wa kare ga ie ni kaerimashita chi tte iru. ... Watashi wa, kare ga sōdeshita."

She frowns at the device, trying to get the power to go back on and failing. "Shikashi... Ima, watashi waatte mo koto wa monku o iwanai shigoto, sore o hyōji suru koto wa dekimasen..."

((Yeah, Before everything happened I got a message from Kotaro about System Maintenance and then got hit. But...I know he went home....I know he did.

But...Now I can't even show it, The thing wont work...))

"I see..."

Yuka guessed that Kotaro was someone Cirno had made friends with here... Someone who'd since disappeared.

The sheer frequency with which she heard about that happening was bothering Yuka more and more. Was that sort of story common here? And just what was causing these disappearances anyway?

To the rest, Yuka could only shrug. "I don't really know much about these things... Maybe if we ask around someone might have an idea?"

"Watashiniha ri ni kanatte imasu! Ikimashou!" Cirno smiled and turned, charging off and away from the lake for a moment. It does not take her long to stop and actually think on this matter.

"Ē to... Watashitachi wa dare ni shitsumon sureba īdesu ka? Watashi wa sutaffu no koto wa shiranai... Karera wa tsūjō watashitachi wa hotondo no bubun o motte iru go shitsumon o yokeru tame ni..." She slipped the PDA in a pocket and waited for Yuka to catch up. She had not gotten too far at the very least!

((Makes sense to me! Let's go!
Uh...Who should we ask? I don't know about the Staff..They usually avoid any questions we have for the most part...))

Yuka smiled. Always so excitable... It was pretty cute. Yuka grabbed her bag and parasol and followed along behind.

"They might be more helpful for an abnormal event like this... but then, perhaps not. I don't really know any of them well..."

"... Actually, where should we start looking? I don't know where anyone else is likely to be right now."

Cirno actually gives this some thought for a moment. "Wareware wa korera no tō kara kuru mono o utsu toki ni wareware wa sutaffu kara ōku no jōhō o eru dakedesu. Dakara wareware wa tabun hoka no gakkō ni irai shinai kagiri dōsa shimasen.. ?"

The fairy crosses her arms and pouts for a second, racking her brain for any other ideas. If there was a punishment she would have known being a Prefect...right?

"Sore wa daremoga basse rarete kita tokorodeshitanaraba, watashi wa karera ga sō suru mae ni, subete no chiji ni tsutaetai nozonde irudarou.... Tabun, dai 1-raundo matawa machi no dareka kara koko ni ite dare ka? Karera wa shitte iru kamo shiremasen!" And with that, she charged off again, a determened look on her face.

((The only time we get much information from the Staff is when we beat whatever comes from those towers. So that won't work unless we ask the other school maybe..? - If it was everyone getting punished, I would hope they'd tell all the Prefects before doing so....Maybe someone who's been here since Round one or someone in town? They might know!))
