The past few moments had felt as if they were a blurb, if you asked Hazel. At one moment, she was working on honing her powers and the next moment she was somewhere that was vastly unfamiliar place, that seemed to be rife with people, as she was handed a cell phone by somebody. The object still felt foreign to her, even if she was a little familiar with the device. She didn't text and for the most part, she had used the phone as a phone. Plus, she figured this phone didn't have Ancient Latin for a language setting.

Still, she figured she could try to figure this object out, even if it was devoid of any buttons and to try to work it out, then go to this Pickman Place she heard about as she moved herself closer to the crowd, not that she could really see much of anything, especially given her height. Though this wasn't like any of the parades she has witnessed and everyone had dressed up in lobster hues, that and there were mutant lobsters too. Did this place have a weird obsession with the creature? Hazel figured she wouldn't ask, she'd just observe and take things as they come.

If anything it was just some odd way of the Gods -- Pluto? Jupiter? Some other unknown deity? -- saying welcome to wherever she was now.

As the parade progressed, Hazel tries to take things in, tried to figure out where exactly she was. She had a feeling it was in the states, but this wasn’t Louisiana. The lobsters made her think if New England. Could this be Maine? Some other state? She didn’t even know the name of the town she had been thrown into and while so many people were here, she felt alone.

Hazel didn’t like the feeling but any conversation she tried to make with any one around her was drowned out by the parade, the garish reds and the fact that she was straining while looking at her phone. The words still felt jumbled up and she was concentrating as hard as she could to try to get a feel for the map, to control her powers. That was not the way she wanted to make her welcome.

For now, she decided to leave the parade and go to the Pickman Place. She could settle in, clear her mind and then she could figure out where the heck she was.
