[ The feed clicks on, and you get a blond, blue-eyed young woman staring down at the screen, nothing but blue sky beyond her. Her brow is furrowed, her nose is somewhat scrunched, and her mouth is set in a slight frown. ]

Has anyone seen or- or heard from Chief Nathan Wuornos or Duke Crocker? [ She sounds exasperated - and maybe a little worried. ] If you have - let me know please. As soon as possible.

[ She disappears from the screen, and all that can be seen is sky, and all that can be heard for a moment as she fiddles with the device is clicking. Then: ]

I hope they aren't off somewhere killing each other trying to find me.

[ The screen goes black. ]

[ She appreciates the encouragement, but it doesn't help matters right now. Still, he gets a small smile out of her. ]

Well, if you happen to run into one of them, just point them in my direction, would you?

[ A beat. Her smile fades a little. ]

Oh- I'm Audrey, by the way. Audrey Parker. [ She almost adds Haven PD after her name but remembers last minute that it would be totally irrelevant information here. ]

Bakura Ryou. [[smiles warmly]] Aaa-- or really Ryou Bakura if you put it in Western order. [[a little sheepish. He always forgets that part.]]

And if I see them, I will, don't worry!

[ Ah, he would definitely be Asian then. Japanese? She knows they switch the names around like that, but she's unclear if any of the other Asian cultures do as well. She smiles slightly at the term "Western" to describe - basically her.

The smile widens a bit more, appreciatively. ]

Thank you very much, Ryou!

[ She nods her head. ]

[[It was still so weird to have people he'd just met calling him by his personal name... Despite having decided to go by it. Made him think of elementary school every time...]]

It's no trouble!

Anything else you need help with? Or did someone find you when you first arrived to give you the grand tour?

[ She sighs a little and then forces a smile, shaking her head. She'd feel a lot better if she knew where those two were, but of course the world wouldn't give her what she wants. ]

I'm fine. I ran into someone who was... Very helpful. [ She chuckles a little. ]

Take care, Ryou. I'm sure we'll talk again.
