Saturday May 16th, 4646 at 12:42 AM in Nocturnia Jolan looked at the building standing in front of him and checked the address on his directions again. "This is the place," he said to himself. He checked the bouquet of flowers he held to make sure they still looked ok after the walk over. After seeing they were fine, he headed in. Once inside, he looked around. There was a large room with lots of chairs. While no one was there now, it was clearly a waiting room. Off to the side was a hallway with a sign reading "Examination and Operation Rooms." On the other side was a door labeled "Stairs - Authorized Personal Only." Jolan looked at the directions. "So I'm supposed to go one floor down using the stairs over there and ignore the sign," he said to himself. "Ok here I go." He opened the door and entered the stairwell. It was dimly lit and only lead down. It looked to have at least 3 floors, steadily getting darker. "These stairs seem unsafe. They need better lighting," Jolan commented as he made his way down the stairs. He went down one floor and saw a door. It was thick and unlabeled. Jolan opened it. On the other side was a white hallway. It was also dimly lit, to the extent that Jolan couldn't see the other end. He looked at the directions once more. "Go down the hallway until the last room on the left," he read aloud. "They need better lighting in here too," he commented. As he started down the hall he glanced at the ceiling and noticed something strange. At first Jolan thought they were giant spiders, but as he got closer he saw they were some kind of chandelier. "These things are odd," he said. "They don't give any light and they look like spiders. I wonder what they're for." He stood directly under one as he inspected it. "AHH!" Jolan said as the chandelier dropped from above. It grasped him with its hairy, spider leg like appendages, holding him firmly. Jolan dropped the bouquet as he was grabbed. Just as quickly as it dropped, the chandelier pulled itself back up to the ceiling. "Help, I've been captured," Jolan said with some urgency.

Within seconds, Rikusa ran up to the restrained Jolan. "...Jolan, is that you?!?" he asked rhetorically.

"Ah hello, Rikusa," Jolan replied. "I seem to be caught. Get me down, these hairy legs are making it hot."

Paraki walked up beside Rikusa. She had a large, triangular eyepatch on the left side of her face that reached past her forehead, and a long, droopong antenna-like protrusion from the right side of her head that replaced the bony growth that covered her ear. She had her lab coat buttoned, and what looked like a bright pink layer of clothing underneath it. "What is going on?" she asked, then looked up at Jolan, then back to Rikusa. "Explain."
"Oh uh... well..." Jolan said, then pointed to his friend. "This is Jolan, your date." He then looked up. "And Jolan... this is Paraki."

"Hello. I brought you some flowers," Jolan said, glancing at the bouquet on the ground.

Paraki looked at the flowers on the floor, visually examining them. She then looked back up at Rikusa. "Sylvia Flowers. They were severed just above the root and loosely wrapped in the leaves of an Ursorian mana tree. They will die in eight to fourteen days."
Rikusa picked the flowers up. "Maybe we should just get him down."

"Yes, I got them for you," Jolan said. "Could someone let me down now?"
Kikisha walked into the hall hearing the commotion. "Ah, I'll get you down right away!" she said, seeing what was going on. She dashed over to the wall and slid open a hidden panel that looked indistinguishable from the rest of the wall. She then pulled a switch inside. The spiderleg chandelier lowered Jolan to near the ground and released him. He fell the last foot and landed on his hands and knees.
"Thank you," Jolan said.

Rikusa glanced at Paraki, then spoke up, "Wasn't she supposed to get ready?" he asked Kikisha.
Paraki unbuttoned her labcoat, revealing a tight-fitted pink dress with black outlines. The dress came just higher than her knees. "I am sufficiently prepared." she said, then looked at Jolan. "Shall we commence the date?"

Jolan, still on his hands and knees, looked up at Pakaki. "That dress looks pretty on you," he said.

"We'll leave you two alone then!" Rikusa said, scampering away to the back room.
