Lost

[psi]

Little Psi had been sitting on Kaelin's bed playing with the sheets. Kaelin and Quinn were in class, and he was hungry and bored. Jumping off the bed Psi had decided to see what he could find, just wondering what was out there. Leaving the room, not bothering to close the door, he left to explore the halls

What seemed like hours later, Psi still had yet to find anyone, and feeling very grumpy and alone started to pout as he walked, looking for anything of interest. But when he found the door to outside, he found himself staring at a large forest before him. Eyes wide, he started to run to it, happy to find a new place to explore.

Hours later though little Psi had found himself very lost, and terrified he started to cry as he walked. But it wasn't long till he saw the outline of a building, and in hopefulness started to run again. Tired, dirty, out of breath, and sobbing softly, he made his way into the building. Soon lost in the building and still alone, little Psi sat on the ground in the middle of the hallway, and just cried loudly

[Alice]

Sneaking ever so quietly down the hallway, Alice's eyes quickly darted every which way as she was determined not to get caught skipping class. Normally, she wasn't the type to play hooky but today she simply wasn't in the mood for one of Griselda's snappish lectures. And besides, it wasn't as if she was doing something too terrible - Alfea, after all, had a kind of unspoken understanding that students could have two unexcused absences from class per semester. Although, Alice thought with a wry smile, some of the less lenient teachers would still throw fits if they discovered her in the hallway when class was in session.

As she surreptitiously continued down the hall, her ears suddenly perked up at the sound of faint crying. Her curiosity piqued, Alice began to tentatively follow the noise, not at all sure what she would find. Turning a corner, she came to a sudden halt when she saw the sight before her eyes: a little boy, probably about six-ish, sitting in the middle of the deserted hallway, bawling his eyes out. Completely baffled as to how he had managed to get into the school, Alice squatted down to his level, knowing that children felt threatened when adults towered over them, and asked with a soft smile, "Hey there, little fellow; are you lost?"

Psi looked up, wiping at the tears with his arm as he nodded.

[Alice]

Thinking for a moment that perhaps he might be a younger brother of one of the other students, Alice asked as she sat down on the floor next to Psi, "Are you visiting your sister here at Alfea?"

[psi]

"i.. I don't have a sister" He said in a small voice.

[Alice]

Growing more concerned by the minute, Alice asked with a frown, "You mean . . . you're here alone?" As the little boy seemed to cower before her, she quickly masked her worry and said in a cheerful voice, "Well then, would you like to stay with me for a little while? You can call me Alice, by the way." Though she had not intended to spend her day baby-sitting, Alice knew that she ought to remain with the boy until she could figure out something else to do - perhaps to find a teacher to leave him with.

[psi]

Psi got to his feet. Still tear stained and crying slightly he did what he was told every time he met someone. He didn't want to get punished if he didn't. So he gave his best bow, but nearly fell over in the prosses. "My name's Psi" He said, looking at her quite a bit happier

[Alice]

Rising to her feet as well, Alice held out her hand and said, "So what shall we do today, Psi?" As they continued walking down the hall, she paused, trying to brainstorm things kids would enjoy doing, before a bright smile lit up her face. "I know. Here, come with me." Leading him down various corridors, Alice finally came to a stop in front of two large double doors - Alfea's auditorium. Testing one of the door handles, Alice peeked her head inside the enormous room and smiled. Just as she had hoped. No one was inside. Turning her head back to look at Psi, she beckoned at him to follow her in.

"Come on, Psi, why don't we go up on stage? I have a little surprise for you." Her eyes dancing merrily, Alice guided him toward the front of the room and up onto the stage. "Okay, then - are you ready? Close your eyes." Looking to make sure that Psi wasn't peeking, Alice transformed into her fairy costume and fluttered above the stage. Next, as she held out her palms, a small mound of sparkling bluish dust appeared on them and as she brought her hands closer to her mouth, she lightly blew on them, sending the dust across the stage. Flying back down, Alice squatted next to Psi and said in a soft whisper, "You can open your eyes now."

As she waited for Psi to open his eyes, Alice cast her gaze around the transformed stage. Her little bit of fairy dust had done wonders and had managed to turn the area into a whimsical winter wonderland. The floor was covered in bright white snow and from above, Alice had hidden the stage lights and wire with pale grey clouds that perfectly mirrored a winter sky. Her finishing touch though had been the falling snowflakes that seemed to come straight out of the clouds. Laughing silently to herself, Alice was glad, however, that all of this could be taken away with a wave of her hand - otherwise she would be stuck with cleaning duties for a week.

Psi's eyes went wide as he stared at the snow. He had always seen it outside his window, but had never been allowed to go outside, or play in it, too much like a peasent child he was told. but he wasn't home now was he, he ran to the snow, rather wondering about it

[Alice]

Watching Psi run around in the snow, Alice couldn't help but smile; the kid was adorable. She was still curious, however, how exactly he had gotten inside the school. If he wasn't the sibling of a student, then who was he? It wasn't as though he could have just fallen out of the sky. And he couldn't have walked to Alfea from Magix because town was just too far away. Shaking her head, Alice crossed her arms over her chest. It really was a mystery.
