OOC: Okay, this is basically a roleplay that I wanna make so you guys can find out about where Suzume grew up, it's the 'IF' roleplay because well.. think of it as this is what it would be like for Suzume if she didn't go to TMA and instead met all the students and everyone in her town. So yes. TMA characters please! ^^
BIC: Suzume sighed as she looked out her window, the summer sun beat down on the streets which were dry and dusty from drought, her face was a nice shade of pink from the heat and her dark red hair was clipped back with a blue butterfly barrette, her turquoise eyes scanned the outside, armed soldiers in thier clean armor walked down the street, just another day in 'paradise'. She let out a sigh as she started downstairs, there wasn't much hope to get out of here. She had recieved an invitation to a new school but her parents didn't want to risk her being put through the same things she had at her previous school. She shuddered, remembering the three months of confinement- she hadn't even done anything wrong. Suzume was dressed fairly plainly in a white dress that fit her well enough, but not exactly stellar. It was made of a light material and flowed to just below her knees, her feet bare and a little dirty since she didn't wear her shoes most of the time. Her fox ears and tails were hidden- it was dangerous to let the world know you had magical abilities, that's how you get thrown into the military and Suzume was dead certain she didn't want that life. The only other possibility was to end up joining the resistance. She couldn't exactly remember what thier name was, but they were an underground group who was trying constantly to overthrow the government and killing anyone who got in thier way, even the innocent.

Amber skipped down the street happily, her orange pigtails bouncing up and down. Her green eyes sparkled curiously at so many soldiers. She paused and brushed some dust off of her ripped to shreds jeans, looking for someone who looked somewhat nice. 'Oh, screw it!' Amber thought as she straightened her black tank top and stalked up to one of the warriors. "Excuse me," she said in her most innocent voice, "but where am I? I'm on a journey through the world and need to know these things."

"Err... You're in Lakeridge..." The guard said, a little taken aback from the stranger who just ran up asking questions, he was a fairly tall and certainly muscular person, a broadsword at his waist and he raised an eyebrow as he looked down at the girl in pigtails, "Are you lost or something?" He asked, not really sure what to say. Accross his sunburned face was a long, jagged scar and accross his forehead the word 'Loyalty' was carved into his skin. His ears were long and pointed- obviously he was elven though his gaze lacked the same spark that every elven seemed to hold.
"Just kill it, we can't waste too much time around here." Came the voice of one of the other soldiers, "We need to finish the patrolls before the executions. Got it, rookie?" He said, his tone condescending towards the first soldier. He seemed pretty human, a long pike in his hand and his bushy black hair hung in his face as he glared at the strange girl.
Suzume was still inside her house, unaware of what was going on outside and right now she didn't care. She walked around her home and picked up an apple, sweet and tasty. It was rare that they'd have fruit around the house and she enjoyed the fact that they had it, she then began heading towards the bathroom so she could take a shower. She walked timidly, almost like a scared animal- not wanting to be found by some omniscent predator.

Amber gave him her biggest, teariest puppy eyes. "You wouldn't kill me...would you?" Really, she was thinking, 'Executions? Ehh?? Ehhh?!' but since someone had already said kill "it" she figured probing wasn't too great of an idea. Just in case, Amber started to slowly back away.

"Would you like to test that theory?" The second soldier said, obviously he wouldn'y give a second thought to killing Amber, his hand twisted around the long pole, the pike's tip carried a metal blade that still had slight bloodstains on it... pleasant, reeeeaaallly pleasant.
The first guard seemed a little unsure before wincing slightly and he wore the same dark expression of the second, "Who says though that we had to kill her? There's always imprisonment, or more... pleasureable things that could be done..." His tone and voice seemed to have changed, as if something was causing- no, forcing him to be this way. The second guard was just like that though. Obviously something pretty fishy was going on around this place.
Suzume whistled to herself as she slid the snow white dress off of her body and she gently stepped into the shower, her pale skin scarred accross her back and she turned on the water, it was unnaturally cold and goosebumps raised on her skin as the water quietly patted against her milky skin and she began rinsing out her hair. No shampoo or conditioner though, nobody could afford such trifle things around this place, they were expensive so she just rinsed her hair instead, she hummed to herself, the tune wasn't really recognizeable but it was reminiscent of a lullaby, that was because it was a lullaby.

"EWWWWWWWWW!!!" Amber shrieked as she slapped the guard across the face on reflex. "You pointy-eared weirdo!" Then her hand clapped over her mouth. "Wait, no. Wait, no! That was an illusion. This is a dream. None of this ever happened, ever will happen, or---SEE YA!" With that said, Amber raced away, a cloud of dust behind her.

The two soldiers began running after the strange delinquent, "One more for the executions wouldn't be too bad, would it?" said the second one.
"Indeed." the first said in response, still not in his own voice.
A tall woman with sharp features seemed to step out from nowhere, her eyes icy blue and her light brown hair in sproingy curls to the base of her neck. She was dressed richly compaired to the rest of the town, so obviously she was fairly important. "Leave her alone." She commanded the two soldiers who looked at her confused.
"But... Miss Vara..." the second one said in confusion.
"I told you to leave her alone, she's a guest here in Lakeridge." She said, her voice was calm and convincing. "So then, dearest traveller- what buisness do you have here?" she asked. Her voice wasn't commanding, it actually seemed genuinely curious in it's odd, calm way.

((This is Duemi's dad, and he will be showing up here soon anyway, so I choose him!))
A figure in a long black trench coat walked down the dusty streets. The coat had red shoulder pads and silver, almost Celtic details around the hem. He walked slightly hunched over black boots scuffing the ground. A hood cast his head in shadow, though if you got at the right angle, his eyes seemed to reflect the light, similar to a cat. His hands where where at his sides, black gloves over his hands. The coat was also buttoned up, his attire looked like one you might see in winter months, but in the current weather he seemed quite odd indeed.

Vara noticed the jacketed stranger in the corner of her eyes and a scowl flashed accross her face momentarily but it quickly dissapeared, she looked down at Amber and smiled, "How would you like something to eat?" she asked. She seemed nice enough.
The two soldiers began walking away, getting back to thier patroll. The first guard stopped a few moments, shaking his head with a confused look on his face, "What happened?" he asked, confusion itching at his voice.
"You questioned orders... again. You need to stop doing that." said the second.
The two of them continued on thier walk, talking along thier way.
Suzume stepped out of the shower, wearing a towel wrapped around her body and she headed to her bedroom. Her dress was slung over her shoulder and she began going through her dresser drawer, she pulled out her dark green pants and a brown, short sleeved shirt, a hat as well to keep the sun off of her skin. She pulled the pants on over her body, around here everything seemed stuck in the medieval ages, economy couldn't grow and there was no time to spend learning arts or sciences- all they had to do was what the government made them do, mostly it was labour. Suzume pulled the shirt over her torso, it was large and unflattering but not too terribly bad, though she would have preffered a neckline that didn't go down as much, it didn't show too much skin, just to her collarbone but she would have liked it if it was collared and at her neck instead, preffering to keep herself covered. She couldn't be too terribly choosy about what clothes she got though- like you should know already from the paragraph, things weren't exactly stellar around here.
She walked downstairs and then outside, still barefoot and when she saw Vera in the corner of her eye, her eyes seethed a vile hatred and when she noticed the stranger in the long, black jacket she grew all the more dissatisfied with things, that jacket was a symbol and not much good came from it. She still needed to get outside for a while, she had to go to the market of course. Simple chores around here, then later she'd have to help the town irrigate the crops.
A fox sat on the roof, eyes dark brown and pelt snowy white, a single tail hung down and he blinked lazily, "Sister... the government will tax it all away sooner or later... you shouldn't worry about it." Renjiro's voice came into Suzume's head, telepathically. Renjiro didn't care much about the fact that if he was caught he'd be put into the military, forced through training till his will broke and he obeyed orders- or he died.
Suzume glared up at her younger brother who was foolish enough to venture outside in his fox form before she started heading in the opposite direction of Amber, Vera, and the stranger in the black and silver jacket.

"Oh, um, I'm good," Amber said absent-mindedly as she glanced over her shoulder at Suzume. "I don't eat a lot. Uhm, who's that?" Then she looked to the stranger in the jacket. "And who are you?"

Suzume sensed that someone had looked at her and she looked behind her towards Amber and Vara, though anyone who was remotely close to Vara on the streets was better left alone so she quickly looked away, not wanting to attract too much unwanted attention. She was a walking crime, she had magic and that itself was illegal.
Vara knew Suzume had magical powers... and it was only a matter of time. She smirked, the king that united the country that was wrought with warlords was dying and any week now the ladies of the prefectures would be summoned. The king had no male heir- so with his declining health he'd have to assure there'd be one. A kitsune could produce a human heir in perhaps... three weeks. She'd probably get some sort of promotion for providing someone such as Suzume- so she and her family couldn't find out they were known of, otherwise they might leave which wouldn't be good. Vera crossed her arms over her chest as she looked up and down the street, stopping a moment on the white fox who was pleasantly perched next to the entrance of Suzume's house.
This government was formed to give those with power the opportunity to gain more power, and those with no power no chance to escape.

The stranger briefly paused his step wondering if he should answer Ambers question. HE considered electrocuting her, and the just about everyone else. Yes electrocute. Suzume wasn't the only walking illegal that people knew of. Only difference was that as far as anyone would know, he was dead. Being gone for a couple hundred of years tends to have people think that. He tilted his head forward to let the hood cover his face more. "Reggetar." He finally replied, watching for any reaction. If anyone knew who he was, he would have to get out quick and probably kill everyone. And that was just messy.

"I'm gonna call you Reggae. It's a music style. Like. Bob Marley-ish. You should be proud of yourself, Reggae," Amber said, nodding. "I'm Amber. But you can call me Amber." Then she spotted the white fox next to Suzume's house and shreiked. "EEEHH!! Cuuuuute!!!!!" Amber ran over to pet it.

Reggetar watched as Amber ran off to pet the fox. He would put her on his 'strange people' list. Quite frankly, he had never even HEARD of Reggae but he didn't like the thought of being called that. "I would honestly prefer if you didn't call me that." He mumbled. Reggetar looked over to Suzume, and if you could see his face, you would notice how puzzled it looked. He could have sworn he had seen her before. But that was impossible. She couldn't possibly be who he thought she was. People he knew couldn't be alive still, too much time had passed. He decided to dismiss this thought.

Renjiro didn't seem exactly pleased to have been bothered by the 'bumbling idiot' so he just leveled his eyes to a disgruntled stare at the red headed annoyance. His white tail flisked slightly to his left and he yawned, not really sure what he was supposed to do to this imbecile to make it go away.
Suzume was in human form but if she had her fox ears revealed then she would certainly have her ears far back in angry protest for everything that was going on- one of those 'rebels' were here, as well as Vara and all the while there was Renjiro who was just being difficult. She shook her head and sighed, not really sure what to do at this moment.
Vara sent out a telepathic message to the troops and soon enough they loosely gathered in the vicinity of the street, keeping an eye out on Reggetar. They awaited the opportune moment to take him prisoner.
