Entrance Post: Maureen Johnson - La Diva est arrivee
Damnit.

The delay had broken on her system again and she was meant to be doing a testimonial performance for Mark this evening. She sighed heavily. She's lost a lot of her friends one way or another recently. Mark's disappearence was odd though something didn't ring right. Roger had taken it hard and had gone to ground.

But the apartment, Mark had a spare delay set up that she knew would work, he wouldn't have minded, hell it was fitting. Maureen hot footed it over to the building but couldn't get in.

"What on earth are you doing here?" asked a low voice.

Maureen spun around unsure whether to hit the person or run. But as he stepped out of the shadows she recognised at once who it was, Benny.

"Benny?" she checked. "Christ you scared the shit out of me there. I was trying ot get into the apartment, there's something in there I need."

Benny shook his head. "Cant let you in Maureen, Roger's disappeared too I can't just let you in."

"But Benny tonight's gig, for Mark, will be ruined if I don't get the delay fixed." She wheedled, if anyone was Benny's weak spot Mark might just be it, they had been best friends a while back.

"Please pookie?"

Benny rolled his eyes. "You will be the death of me Maureen, seriously. You got five minutes."

Maureen leaned up and kissed him on the cheek, "I owe you one."

"Yes, you do."

She smiled widely and skipped in through the door and into the familiar loft apartment. It had been deserted now for nearly two weeks since Roger vanished too. She went to Mark's room, their room once upon a very long time ago and rifled through some of his electonic gubbins until she found the piece that would make the delay work.

"Miss you pookie." She said out loud to the room at large before heading back out. On the way though something caught her eye, a puzzle. She hadn't seen one quite like it before and pocketed it for later.

"Thanks Benny" she called on her way out and blew him a kiss.

Maureen made her way to the performance space but her mind was distracted, the puzzle she just had to have a go at it and now.

She dipped into a coffee shop ordered a skinny latte and started to work on the puzzle.

Damned it was infuruating, the latte going cold beside her as she tried to fit the pieces in slowly but surely coming together, this was cool. The last few pieces going in and when she looked up... she wasn't in the East Village anymore.

	Lucas was walking back inside after having talked with Peyton at the trees Layla had grown them both. Someone just appeared in front of him. "Wow, not getting used to that any time soon," he said. "You must be new here," he said. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	"Oh, okay unexpected." She registers the change in her surroundings and there is a cute young man standing right in front of her. "Me either." she repies to his exclamation. "I guess I am new," she grins. "Well I'm Maureen, and you are? And we are where?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He held his hand out to her. "I'm Lucas. And this is Here. Original name I know," he said with a grin. "You solved a puzzle right?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Well hello Lucas." She smiles again broadly. "Here? Oh that's neat." Her eyes narrow when he mentions the puzzle. "How did you know about the puzzle?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"It's how everyone ends up Here. You solve a puzzle and puff you end up Here. The really sucky part, the only way out of Here is to find a bigger puzzle and everyone is looking for the pieces and it only takes one. On the up side, this place has free food, clothes and drink," he said.

"And sorry, I know that's a lot of information to take in," he said giving her an apologetic look.

	"No that's ok Lucas." Ooh she liked the way her name felt in her mouth. "You'll show me round right?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Sure, of course," he said smiling. "Well most people seem to find it easier to get used to this place after a drink. You want to head to the bar first?" he asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Sounds like you're a life saver honey." She offers Lucas her arm. "Take me to the bar!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He smiled warmly at her and took her arm. He let out a soft laugh when she told him to take her to the bar. "You got it," he said grinning. He led her to the bar and once they got there he held a car out for her. "So, Here there's no bartenders. You just order and the drink appears. It can take some getting used to."
