[ the scene itself is unimpressive and uninteresting. celty - wearing her helmet - is sitting in a park beside a blonde man who is smoking. they appear to be chatting. in the background, there's a young couple fighting, and the girl suddenly runs off, past celty and the man. (notably strange? the girl has a huge surgical scar that goes all the way around her neck.) what is interesting is this: celty jumps to her feet and grabs the girl's arm violently, pulling her to a stop.

the girl takes one look at celty and starts screaming in horror. ]

NO! STOP, GO AWAY!

[ she continues to shriek and flail around desperately even when the blonde man approaches. ] Alright, stop with the hysterics. Relax. We're not here to hurt you. [ the screaming crescendos and the girl slaps the man in the face. ] ... Did you hear what I just said? Ah—

[ a boy stabs the man in the leg with a pen, and again with another. meanwhile, the girl escapes, and celty runs after her, pauses for a moment to look back at the man - ]

Go on, don't worry about me. It doesn't hurt. Go. I don't know what this is all about, but you do what you gotta do. [ he slaps himself. ] Heh, I've always wanted to say this. Go on ahead and leave this one to me! Got it?

[ celty nods and jumps on her motorcycle - which whinnies like a horse - and goes tearing down the street after the girl that escaped. ]

Celty, what...?

Hm? Oh - this stupid community...

[dulacaun]

... That was my head! That girl, the one that ran away from me? She has my head on her body!!

[reloadfromsave]

How? Did she take it?

[dulacaun]

I don't know. I'm so confused right now... I have no idea how she found it, or why it's on her body at all. I've never seen her before today, and she escaped with someone before I could ask her anything about it.

[hugmyscythe]

That girl's head...you thought it was yours?

[dulacaun]

It is mine, I know it! I would recognize my own head anywhere!

[hugmyscythe]

[ a smile. she's glad celty at least found it. ]Then by right, you should simply take it back, no?

Perhaps she simply

did not have a headbefore.

[dulacaun]

Well... I don't know how that's going to be possible. I can't just rip her head off, right? And who knows why it's even on her body. What I need to do is find her and talk to her. If that's my head, then it should be able to explain things to me.

[croibhristeoir]

Celty? Is everything alright?

[dulacaun]

No... She got away, and now some girl is running around Ikebukuro with my head on her shoulders without me having any idea why.

[croibhristeoir]

That's...wait, if that was your head where on earth was hers?

[dulacaun]

I don't know! I don't know how someone else could have my head. As far as I could tell, that girl was just an ordinary human.

[chimeranomore]

[Zel takes a bit, working out what's going on here...]

... Okay, how in the world does someone actually manage to do that?

[dulacaun]

I don't know. And I don't know anyone who would know apart from that girl. If even she doesn't know... I have no idea what I'm going to do.

[chimeranomore]

I'm sure there must be one other person. She can't have attached a different head on her own, not if she's human. You need to find someone who managed to sew your head onto that girl's neck... so either a really awful doctor or someone who knows what you are.

[dulacaun]

I think that if someone else put my head on that body, then maybe it's the person who stole my head in the first place. At least, I would think that... but that was twenty years ago.

[rewritereality]

[Jaw drop. Oh she knows who the other from Ikebukuro on the community is now and she was not expecting that. And that scar...what could that be about? Connected to the Manhunters, perhaps?

She should say something. She can't really think what but she can't just sit here and gape. And what she comes up with is, for what happened here, rather mundane but it's the only part she can grasp]

I didn't know you were friends with Shizu-chan.

[dulacaun]

... Shizu-chan...

( 2/2 )

[dulacaun]

Oh, ahem. Yes, actually, Shizuo and I are very good friends.

It looks like my identity got revealed by the community, huh?

[rewritereality]

Looks like it. Oh but don't worry, I won't tell anyone...I mean, not that they'd believe me if I did anyway but, you know.

[dulacaun]

Ha ha, I know. Thanks. By the way, I should probably introduce myself properly now. I'm Celty Sturluson. It's nice to meet you.

[not_that_lockon]

Celty?

When you get a minute, mind filling me in on what all that was about?

[dulacaun]

To tell you the truth... I have no idea. All I know is, that girl has my head. Other than that, I don't know what to say.

[not_that_lockon]

Wait - she had your head? That was it attached to her body?
