You Don't Look Like the Little Mermaid
Who: Kristen and Nixie
Where: Nikita's house
When: Afternoon
Kristen was a little bored. Sure she'd brought along a backpack of supplies to keep her occupied but well, half the space in her backpack had been taken up by the wriggling puppy at her side. And she didn't have any ideas. Kristen was experiencing an artistic block and it was frustrating for the newly-turned ten-year-old. She was totally going to blame it on Missy being gone and the terrible feeling that she got every time she thought of her sister. Like something was going to go, or had gone, wrong with her. She didn't like it but she didn't want to bother Nikita by asking if she knew what was going on, both with Missy at that moment and them in general. Because sure she was a kid and she wasn't an idiot, she knew that there was something going on with those two. Sighing, the blonde snapped her fingers down at Mitzi as she hopped off the cough and padded off into the hall.
There were two places that Nikita had told her not to go; her study and the basement. Kristen's sense of curiosity made her want to find out why those rooms were off-limit but she decided not to press her luck too much. Nikita hadn't had to agree to watch her instead of Linnea so the least she could do was follow the very simple limits that'd been imposed on her. Nothing had been said about the study though so Kristen pushed that door open, hoping to find a book or something that she could... the little girl stopped in her tracks the moment the door was open, mouth gaping as she found herself regarding the biggest aquarium that she'd ever seen. "Whoa," she breathed, closing the door behind herself and her puppy before walking up to peer in at the swirling array of fish and rocks. That thing was huge! Who needed an aquarium this big?
...what was that? Was that, was that a person in there?
