The melody of a soft tune would slowly wake the woman from her slumber. This sleep being much easier to wake up than the last. Blinking her eyes open, she noted that she lay on a cool marble floor. Her brow furrowed together slightly as she pushed herself up. "Where are we?" She asked Neal, only to look to her side she would see that the beau would not be there. Eyes wide, she jumped to her feet, wanting to look for him. Before she had a chance to run off, calling for the male, another began speaking to her.

Lexxi began to slowly walk towards the male, only to have the very ground beneath her feet shatter. As she plummeted into the darkness, she woke up abruptly from her sleep, gasping for air. Sitting up suddenly, she looked this way and that, all around her was unfamiliar and no loving convict lay next to her. Wide eyed and panicked, she began fervently digging for her phone that she heard going off.

Clicking it on without even looking to see who the call was from, she placed the device to her ear. The voice on the other end was the same as the one that had spoken with her not too long ago, or so it seemed. It explained what was going on, that she was to go to the park and something about there being other people in this game.

When the call ended, she flipped through her contacts, a sigh of relief coming when she saw Neal's name. Out of curiosity, she looked through the other contacts, her heart dropping when she saw the name 'Eleanor' written clear as day. "No," she told herself as she felt her blood run cold. "It can't be her." Yet her eyes didn't dare move themselves from the name that displayed itself clear as day.

Forcing herself to break her gaze on that name, she cleared her phone to its main menu where the next thing that blared itself in her mind was the date. "Wait, what's today?" She asked herself seeing as Neal was not beside her. Looking to her left, then her right, she noticed that the male was indeed not there before saying, "Oh, right! The park!" Without another word to say, the dark haired woman took off running, she didn't know where she went, her body just told her where to go. She paid no attention to the world around her as she thought about being reunited with Neal and possibly her long-lost sister.

He had to be there, Eleanor knew he had to be. The phone said that Nieko would be at the park as well. Then a thought hit her; he wouldn't just be standing out in the open, that wasn't like him. She closed her eyes and tried to see if something just seemed off somewhere, it wasn't like she had powers in that area, but from time to time she would just have a feeling she knew where the male was.

When that didn't work, she opened her eyes again, peering this way and that to see if there was any clue as to where he could be hiding. It was during that time a pair of strong hands gripped her shoulders. Eyes widening and snapping forward, before narrowing dangerously at the male that was a bit too close for comfort.

He shoved her away not long after and the woman snapped. "You wishing for a death wish or something bub?" She shouted at the male, pushing herself off the tree, hands balled into fists. Eleanor had been through far too much, both before and after meeting Nieko, to let this guy treat her like that. Granted, after some of the things her and Neiko went through, the woman was a bit quicker to anger, but she was stressed out much like the rest of them.

"Cause if you are, I'd be more than happy to help you out with that," she took a couple steps towards the male. It was clear that there were some among Nieko's companions that were starting to rub off on her. Then again, with his disappearances in the past, they were all she had to rely on. Now, now they weren't there either.

She could hear voices, that must have meant that she was near by. Lexxi tried to pick up the pace and it seemed like not moments later, she had reached her destination. Slowing down, the woman placed her hands on her knees to catch her breath. Looking about the group, she didn't recognize anyone at first. Towards the far end, she finally spotted the man she was looking for and he seemed to have momentarily taken intrest in another woman before throwing her away only to draw her ire.

She quickly moved over to the male, wrapping her arms around his torso. "I finally found you," she breathed into his back before peaking over his should to see who he had been pestering before. The small statured woman in front of them caused Lexxi's eyes to widen in surprise.

"Eleanor?" She asked, her voice breathless and sounding more like gasps. The woman returned the name with a sharp look before saying, "You should put a leash on your dog."

Lexxi blinked a few times as she watched the brown haired girl walk away to the other side of her tree, sitting at its base. She looked and sounded like Eleanor, but that tone and personality was not what she remembered of her younger sister. She wanted to talk to the woman, but Neal would keep her from pulling away and leaving his side once more.
