[Action, 9/21-9/25] Level 1 Event

[The 21st]
Anything but a morning person, Chouji wakes up slowly. When he finally stretches and pulls himself out of bed, he freezes. This isn't his room. "Tou-chan! Kaa-chan!" He claps a hand over his mouth after the yell, realizing that if they aren't here, he isn't sure he wants to know who is. Chouji looks around the room, seeing a forehead protector placed on the dresser, right in the middle as if waiting to be put on. It's a ninja's room, then. He picks it up, looks at the symbol, a kanji rather than the Konoha leaf. Not a good sign, given that Chouji has absolutely no idea what village uses a symbol like that.

Things deteriorate from there. If anyone heard the yell and comes to investigate, they'll find a very apprehensive six year old, possibly armed with a kunai if he's found his older self's weapons stash.

When he does get up the nerve to leave the room and explore the floor, he tries to sneak around unnoticed, but it's the equivalent of playing ninja. On a floor of fully fledged ones. None of his attempts are likely to be successful. Anyone in Community Housing 1 is welcome to catch him out during his lackluster attempts at stealth.

22nd-25th
Other days, now that things have been explained to him, Chouji looks for food and will be pleasantly surprised by any new friends. He can probably be found at the convenience store and bakery for snacks, Seventh Heaven for a meal or two, and at the playground by the school playing on his own.

Or pretty much anywhere as long as it isn't in someone else's house. He stays out of the residences. He's open to tagging along after people he met on the first day so handwaving first meetings is also okay.

Community housing 1, stairwell (of course)

[Chouji isn't quite ready to trust strangers he finds in the stairwell, and he freezes when Konan catches him sneaking down it.]

I'm not! [He insists very unconvincingly as he looks to see if she's wearing a forehead protector that might tell him anything.]

What's your name and where are you from? [Maybe if he just asks where she's from rather than where they are, she'll believe Chouji's blatant lie. Yeah. He's going to be a ninja someday, he can start practicing the art of deception now! It could work. ...If he's really lucky or she's really gullible.

Neither of those seems likely today.]

[There's no forehead protector on her, or any way of telling that she's a shinobi aside from the way that she moves. It's not a convincing lie at all, but she doesn't call him out on it. She's not here to be mean to the boy.]

My name is Konan and I live on the seventh floor of this building.

[Of course, that doesn't mean she's going to volunteer more than basic information until he admits to the truth.]
caterpillarninja: (wide-eyed)

The building has seven floors? [He doesn't realize until after asking that the question reveals he has no idea what building he's in, let alone what village.]

My name is Chouji.

[Fine, he'll give up.]

...Where are we?
origami_ninja: (little smile)

[personal profile] origami_ninja 2013-09-26 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
It's nice to meet you, Chouji.

[Konan can't help the faint smile. She likes kids, and she's more inclined to smile around them now that she's not cutting herself off from her emotions.]

This building has eight floors, and this town is called Luceti. It's not a shinobi village.
caterpillarninja: (ponder)

[personal profile] caterpillarninja 2013-09-26 02:22 pm (UTC)(link)
But how did I get here? I've never heard of Luceti before. How far is it from Konoha?

[Konan is smiling and seems nice, and really, what are his other options here? He's grateful to have found someone who seems to know what's going on.]

There is a group called the Malnosso...and Luceti is in another world from Konoha. The Malnosso's abilities work like a very powerful space-time jutsu.

[It's the easiest way to explain to any shinobi, and especially to a child.]
caterpillarninja: (...what? / stare)

[personal profile] caterpillarninja 2013-10-07 05:26 pm (UTC)(link)
There are jutsu that can do that!? How strong do you think a ninja would have to be to pull people into a whole other world?
origami_ninja: (looking to the future)

[personal profile] origami_ninja 2013-10-08 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)

Almost as powerful as a god...but it is possible for a small group with excellent chakra control to combine their power together, and the Malnosso are a group.

[She might as well explain things as honestly as she can without needlessly frightening him.]
