Owen came back in, and began to speak. "One of the robots out there healed the cyborg... and now we've got to find the log disk. You didn't happen to see it while you were... attacking?"
Larissa gave Owen a puzzled look. What were all these strange words he was using? Robots? Cyborg? Log disk? He was asking her about that last one... about if she knew where it was. Well, she couldn't tell him, since she didn't know what a log disk even was, let alone where you would find one.
"Uhh... I don't know..." Larissa replied slowly. "It would probably be... wherever you would find one of those... unless it's not there, then it's... somewhere else." She grinned sheepishly, realizing she wasn't really being any help at all. But she'd never heard of any of these strange things Owen was talking about back in Nikoho.

"Uhh... I don't know.. It would probably be... wherever you would find one of those... unless it's not there, then it's... somewhere else."
Owen crouched down in front of Larissa with a worried expression on his face. He looked carefully at her eyes and then used the small flashlight he had to test her iris response.
He sat down, amazed that she appeared never to have heard of these things before, but then again, there were stranger people here. "A cyborg is... Well, its kind of a robot," he faultered, how would she know what a robot was, how could he explain?
"There's this thing called electricity..." This would take him a while.
.....
Jack split his team up and started searching with the help of the Doctor and the other strange people who had all been pulled from their respective worlds. None of them knew why or even how but they had a common enemy and even the Doctor, a strict pacifist, could see that they had to survive. He regretted the loss of the cyborg, the pain it went through, but he also knew that it was no longer fully human and it was better off dead then remaining a prisoner to its metal shell.
He continued to ponder the questions that floated silently between the members of the group and still that unseen thought nagged at him.

"Cyborgs, cybermen of any kind, carry log disks If we could find it, the TARDIS or any other assimilation program could read it."
"What does it look like?"
"I'm not sure. Cybermen carry little silver chips but this might be a round disk or maybe something completely different. We'll just have to search for it."
Cinnamon gave a confused look. "Log disks?"
"Do you mean like a memory bank?" Axl asked. He then looked at the cyborg with a partly creeped out, somewhat disgusted look. "'Cause if so… we're gonna need to do some digging."
Cinnamon took on a similar expression, only this one less mild, and accompanied with leaning backward. She paused, and looked up. "It's getting dark. Don't humans need to rest at night?"

((figure I should remind myself I'm still here, lulz))
As Cinnamon made her comment about the darkness, Italy yawned. He was obviously bored. "Germany-san, I'm tired."
"It is getting late," Austria observed. "Perhaps we should think about setting up camp here for the night.

"Oh, I know what electricity is," Larissa said in response to Owen. "I've used it before, even! And you have to be real careful with it, 'cause it can be really painful if you don't know how to control it."
Of course, Larissa was talking about the electricity she could shoot from her wand. Not that she knew it could be used to power machinery.
She let out a yawn. "Wow, it's been a long day... maybe I'll have to get back home tomorrow instead..."
---
"Someone would likely have to keep watch if we were to set up camp," Rank noted. "I mean, we don't want any of those creatures attacking us while we're asleep."
Rank realized now that it might take quite a while for him--or anyone else, for that matter--to actually find his way home. He frowned. Was he missed back home? Had anyone even noticed he was gone, or had time been frozen on Yosei Isle while he was out in this strange place? At this point, the answers to those questions he could only guess.
"I don't suppose some of you fighter types would be willing to keep watch overnight?" Rank asked the crowd in general. "Perhaps you can take shifts?"

Larissa looked as tired as Owen felt. Night was closing in around them and the building, already dark, was turning to pitch. He heard the conversation filtering through and thought it would be useless to try to find the log disk that night.
Jack nodded, "I'll take first watch, you guys set up camp inside that building, check for any other openings, even windows."
"Captain? I'll stay with you. None of us should be alone now that its dark." Jack smiled at Ianto's loyalty, the two had had far too little quality time and even in these dire situations, he still thought about it.
The two took up positions either side of the main door and waited to see if there were any other exits. Night was closing in fast.

Once the group was inside the build, it was strangely quiet. "So…" Axl began, "I think we should get to know eachother while we're all still awake. I'm Axl. I'm a Reploid." Remembering that everyone seemed to use different terms, and may have been from very different places, he added "In case you don't know, a Reploid is a robot that can think and feel like you humans."
"I'm Cinnamon!" Cinnamon cut in. "I'm a Reploid, too. Um… I'm a healer. I'm from Gigantis. Before I met Axl's friends, I only lived with Professor Gaudile. Um…" Thinking it might not be a good idea to mention the Force Metal Generator, she said "That's about it."
Axl continued with his own introductions. "I'm a Maverick Hunter. …Mavericks are the Reploids who generally try to rule the world, and will hurt humans. I'm not sure where I'm from, but I've spent a lot of time on earth. I used to be with Red Alert. I'll explain more later."

"I'm Larissa," Larissa piped in once Axl had finished speaking. "Larissa Jeniver. From Nikoho Town... uhh, Wielder of Sesrina's Wand. Or at least that's what that one guy's been calling me... this is Sesrina's Wand, though." She held the wand up the best she could, to show that she'd obtained the said item of legends. Legends that the people around here had likely never heard, but still.
Seeing that introductions had started, Rank spoke up as well. "Well, my name's Rank. I'm, unlike you from what I can see, a Yosei. From Yosei Isle, predictably enough." He paused briefly to think. "Also the Sweep Master, but that likely means nothing to you."

They'd already introduced themselves, but Austria realized some of the others might not have heard. "I'm Austria," he said, wondering how many of them were aware of his country. "I'm not human, I'm the manifestation of my nation."
"He's my husband," Hungary chimed in. "I'm Hungary. Also a country, obviously."
"I'm Italy!" the younger nation said quickly. "I'm Northern Italy, actually, and my big brother is Southern Italy and my best friend ever is Germany and I like pasta a lot and it makes me sad that there isn't any here."
"We're from Europe," Austria said, following this monologue, and then amended his statement. "Well, Earth." He wasn't sure how many people would even have heard of Europe.

Zelos yawned, moving into the little circle to stand opposite the reploids. "I'm Zelos. Chosen of Tethe'alla... although I kinda doubt that means much to any of you. I was just minding my own business in a fight to the death, when..." He shrugged. "It's weird; whoever took me here got me just when I thought I was dead for sure. Last thing I felt before I woke up was his sword sliding into my chest..."
Zelos stopped, realizing this was probably way too much information. "Buuut, that's not important. And what about the rest of my lovely hunnies? ♥"

The Doctor and the members of Torchwood listened to the introductions and then took their turn.
"I'm Gwen," she began, "We're from earth," here she glanced at the humans who called themselves nations, "Cardiff, Wales in the United Kingdom specifically and these are the other members of Torchwood." Here she indicated the other two.
"I'm Toshiko, just Tosh though." Tosh looked over at the other man. "I'm Owen," he said simply. "The two men out there are Jack and Ianto, also from Torchwood. Jack is our boss, er, leader, he's the tall one in the coat." Gwen smiled and then Torchwood turned to the other man, Jack's friend.
"Who? Me?" he said, "Don't mind me, I'm no one." Gwen and her companions continued to stare. "I'm the Doctor, by the way."
"Are you from the future like Jack?" asked Tosh.
"Not exactly."
"Well then where are you from? When are you from?" Tosh was remembering Curly's reaction upon hearing the name of the Doctor.
The Doctor sighed. "I'm a Time Lord, I travel through space and time." and that was all he would say.

(( aaaah sorry again *fails at keeping track of characters* ))
After making sure that the creature she had killed was really dead, Curly descended from the rooftop, quickly locating the rest of the people she had encounted. Quietly, she crouched down a little ways away from them, listening to them talk.

((Sorry for not posting sooner. Computer troubles.))
Germany spoke up after the man named Doctor stopped talking. "I'm Ludwig, also known as Germany. I am also a manifistation of a nation from earth, along with my elder brother, Prussia and the others here as well." He motioned over to his brother leaning against one of the walls and the three other nations present in the room.

((*forces self to participate*)) O'Riley said, very quietly but at the same time happily, "I'm Baba O'Riley. I'm a song, and... yeah. The personification of notes and melodies and such."
The Swedish Chef shouted "I'm zee Svedeesh Cheff! I can cuuk und, und, und... COOK! Bork bork bork."
O'Riley sighed. "He's just out of it, you know?"
