"Yeah, well, patience is a virtue."
Cannon nodded.
"By the way... How did you escape? If you don't mind me asking."

-
"Escape? Oh yeah, WM has gone to sh*t. Trillions dead in an endless war that has destroyed multiverses. Y'know, fun stuff. I added a few million myself." She giggled as if that were nothing.
-
"Wow..." Cannon wasn't sure weather to be glad WM was falling apart, or upset about Traci being dragged in.
-
"Yeah, ya got Charles' Empire on one end and the Rebel Terrorists on the other. Lots of suffering. I believe anyone who had enough money escaped after the first couple thousand cities got blown to pieces. One of them being Star. I hear she came here. I might get an autograph. She's a famous athlete."
-
"Maybe I can help you find her." He suggested. Just then a little kid ealked up to them, she was dressed in a halloween costume of a princess of some sort. She stared up at Traci.
-
"Hello there, lil fella." Traci smiled and waved at the kid. "You're one beautiful princess."
-
She looked to be dressed as Ariel. "Thanks! You're really pretty. I like your hair."
-

-
The girl giggled. "That looks silly! Are you a princess? You look like Ariel."
-
"That's the look I'm going for!" She kept her hair up like that with a laugh. "And technically through my mother I am, so...yeah. Not much of a kingdom left though."
-
The kid barely understood... Aside from that Traci was a princess. "You're a real princess! Oh my gosh! That's so cool!"
-
"It is, isn't it?" Traci kneeled down and patted the kid's head.
-
She grinned up at Traci, then her mom called her back to the table for ice cream.
-
Traci stood back up and sighed. "I'm glad I managed not to behead that kid. Seemed nice."
-
"Wait, what?" Cannon had been smiling, but now he frowned. "Traci, what do you mean?"
-
Edited by Stitch: 11/2/2017 2:35:15 AMTraci giggled. "What? What did I say?"
-
"... Decapitate?" Cannon asked, realizing she may not have escaped unscathed.
-
"Like, a battleaxe and her neck colliding?! Father, why the hell are you thinking I'd say something like that about a cute lil girl? You're a lil screwy in the head."
-
"You said it... Traci, are You alright?"
-
"I'm fine! A-okay!" She cheered. "You probably just want something to be wrong."
-
"Traci, you know I wouldn't want anything to be wrong, but you're acting different. You just got back from being captured, I'm sorry if I doubt you got away unscathed."
-
"I only wish I were dead because half of me is the innocent lil girl that fears for her life and the other half is a bloodthirsty monster that wants to kill anything that moves." Traci shrugged, unphased. "It's cool."
-
Cannon grabbed her hand. "Traci, you're not violent. Whatever they did to you, even they can't change who you are. You're a sweet, adorable, loving girl who can make friends with just about anything that breaths."
-
She pulled her hand back. "Well, half of that was right. I've come back for like, a day and already made so many new friends."
-
"Traci, you aren't violent. If they did something to make you that way then I'll help you beat it." He wished Iso was there. She'd know what to say to Traci... And she was supposed to meet him to rescue Traci that morning.
-
"No, you won't. Someone else may help though." She shrugged. "I dunno. You always seem to just cause me to get more hurt, I feel like."
