When all his friends died [Elly]

Elly sort of just appeared in the alleyway, with a sound akin to a bubble popping. She blinked and looked around. Wait... What was she doing? Why was she... here? Wait a tic, this was the Rukon! Had she been visiting Birgitte? Why would she be in an alleyway... huh... weird...

She turned to see some kid running at her and gave an appropriate "Bwahhh", throwing her arms up to protect her face.

Elly scrunched up her face as the shitty kid told her to move. Screw you! You move! She stepped aside slightly, letting the little brat go past. Did she want to go meet his friends? No. FUCK no. She started walking the opposite direction, intent on finding out where she was, when she suddenly felt a tug and next thing she knew she was floating backwards, following him.

"Hey. HEY! Nooo no no no!" She flailed at the air, helplessly pulled along by forces she could not see.

Elly continued struggling against whatever the hell this was that was pulling along this kid's stupid escapades. Craaaaap... Maybe she could.... She reached into her cloak and pulled her wand out. Here we go. She pointed it behind her to form a crystalline wall to stop her progress.

But moments later the wand had failed to produce anything but a small mist of crystal dust.

Well... that wasn't good.... Feeling suddenly unarmed, Elly came to a stop and turned to face the kid, some distance off, talking to his friends. Just what the HELL was going on here?

Elly was pushing against the invisible wall that dragged her here and wondering if she could still launch a cero. She tried to gather energy for it but it seemed to slip through her fingers like water or sand. She groaned and turned around. What, he wanted to shake hands? She peered at the hand in front of her, her nose wrinkling a little as if she smelled something bad.

She pulled her hands in close. "I don't want to shake hands with a grubby little kid.." She wasn't always so hostile to kids, but he did look especially grubby and she was a little preoccupied with why space itself was shoving her around.

"You are. You absolutely are." She said flatly, watching his grubby little self cavort about before walking away. She gave a little sardonic wave before turning to leave herself and smacking into that invisible wall. Right... stuck here... She sighed and, in an act of protest, sat down on the ground, crossing her legs and her arms. The wall seemed to just scoot her along the ground as the boy walked back to his friends. Well. Whatever. She had to be here but she didn't have to like it.
