::A cat girl with red hair in overalls and a plump woman in a beat up blouse and jacket with brown hair step out of a pick-up truck at the park with the Blood-Red Blossoms, crossing Sector Security's security tape, and start investigating.

Maybe you'd like to go talk to them.

The park in question should be close to the rail line from Duel Academy into Domino that students and staff there can easily visit at the same time in the evening as the two ladies::

They're my actual ears, Teach!

::She yells out as you jog by.::

[daschillyone]

Huh. That's a new one.

:Garrett stops near them.::

Since when do people exist here with horns and animal ears? Did I miss a memo?

[mychimeracalromance]

Since the door to Earth was kicked open in like. 2010? 2012?

I live here, Prof.

::Her tail flicks back and forth, she definitely seems to be of a half tiger-half human stock.::

Horns is a new one though. Do I have horns, Rek?

[itsforflavoring]

Not really. If you have 'em, you're hidin' 'em.

::The more heavy set young woman is marching around, taking pictures with a digital camera and a smartphone, of the 'festival platform'.::

[daschillyone]

No, Horns was another lady. This stuff hasn't happened stateside since like... 1996, before my time really.
Regardless, sorry! Still getting used to this whole... thing. Domino seems a lot... different than what I had expected it to be.
Oh, and sorry, I should introduce myself. Garrett Logan, Student Professor of Advanced Duel Theory at Duel Academy.
::Garrett reaches out to shake the hand of the older of the two women.::

[itsforflavoring]

::Walks over and shakes.::

Tachibana Rekka. Auld Lang Syne. DA Alum.

What happened in 1996 and what were ya expectin', Professor?

[daschillyone]

Well 1996 the US military fought Atlantis apparently. From what dad says monsters and killer rats also Appeared.

As for what I expected? Honestly, no idea. My life was weird enough before moving here, whats the addition of demi-humans going to change?

[itsforflavoring]

I think my prof at the time said that was Swamp Gas reflected off of a Weather Balloon due to light reflectin' off Venus... Wassa Demi-human?

[daschillyone]

Fantasy word for the collection of near-humans with "fantastical" features. Horns, cat ears, tails, wings, etc. Does it have any real meaning? Probably not. Just a dumb thing I saw in my Japanese animes.

Yeah, people seem iffy about whether or not it actually happened. People who were near the Atlantic coast definitely remember seeing something rise from the oceans, and newspapers that people kept from back then mention monster attacks. Scuttlebutt on the internet is rare though.

[mychimeracalromance]

I'll insist on being called human, thank you very much. My mom's from Earth and is Japanese.

::Sticks out her tongue.::

[itsforflavoring]

Yeah. Kiki's people. ... Demi makes her sound lesser?

Though, yeah, something like Atlantis sounds like something that'd be covered up, ya know?

[daschillyone]

Ah, but wouldn't you rather have a cool name? Imagine getting to be first of the Beastkin or something. Oh well, I'll call you whatever you want. Anyway, you know what's going on here? I know it's cherry blossom season, but I didn't think they'd be this... red.

[itsforflavoring]

Oh hey, you're right.

::She turns to start snapping photos of the blossoms.::

Boss lady'll want pics of those.

[mychimeracalromance]

I 'unno, getting called "My Lil' Pumpkin" by Mom and Dad's nice.

And Nekozaki Kimera. My friends call me Kiki.

And heck if we know, Teach. Boss Lady sent us out here, hoping it be connected to The Yellow Sign.

Or was it the Golden Sign, Rek?

::Turning to her friends.::

[itsforflavoring]

The Boss and Sapphire 've used both, I think. I'll need to get a chalkboard ta keep count with.

[mychimeracalromance]

Of course they have.

::Turns back to Garrett.::

So you heard anything about the Yellow or Golden Sign, Teach?

[daschillyone]

Who's the boss lady?

[itsforflavoring]

Ms. Sayaka.

[daschillyone]

That sure is a last name you told me. No big deal. So I take it you don't actually know anything about these things either?
:: Garrett bends down and picks up a fallen cherry blossom leaf.::

[itsforflavoring]

::It feels ominous and blood red.::

Nope, and we don't know 'er last name, feels like it changes every time she says it. We were sent out to feel out the place and see if it's 'ttached to The Sign.

[daschillyone]

Wouldn't happen to be the Yellow Sign would it?

How does something physically FEEL ominous? That's insane.

:Garrett drops it and dusts off his hands.:

[itsforflavoring]

's what Kiki said, Professor.

The Yellow or Golden Sign.

's kind of important to the Boss as she thinks it'll stop Las Vegas from turning inta a giant block o' Jell-O.

Ya know anything 'bout it?

[daschillyone]

Came up in an acquaintances studies of the abandoned Obelisk Blue dorm. Also from an old occult book. That's all I know about it really. I should probably stay on top of this. It's my duty to keep the students safe, and if what I heard about Halloween last year is anything to go by, I should take everything pretty seriously.

[itsforflavoring]

Well, if ya come 'cross anything, it'd be a huge help, Professor, if ya'd let us know.

[mychimeracalromance]

... Abandoned Obelisk Blue Dorm...

::Scribbles that down.::

Might need to find a way onto the island. Never thought we'd go back there...

What was the person's name, Teach?
