Mikoto After The LOL

[Mikoto (3rdangel@livejournal.com)]
A little blond girl who looks perhaps about five years old has been left near the sign. She has a tail the same color as her hair, and a very very slight frown on her face.

This wasn't any place on Terra she recognized. It's too bright, and noisy, and has too many colors. Mikoto doesn't like it.

"Where is this? How do I get home?"
