"Ugh!" Gracer groaned as she dropped a box on the ground. She looked around seeing more boxes that filled the room. "Gra-cer can you H-help with th-iiss"!? She turned to see Tareli dragging a couch into the room blue faced and straining. "Oh, Yea!" She said before quickly making her way to the other side. A long time ago, Gracer and Tareli was raised by a troll named Nocturnal. Nocturnal stole children who were without a luses and took care of them. Now that Nocturnal has died and left the two alone, Tareli took care of Gracer. They were moirails and they were VERY close. "Thanks." Tareli said her face returning to it's natural grey. The two shifted the couch in kicking and moving stiff with their feet. "Right here!" Tareli called, the two set down the couch and looked at their progress. "Looks good for now." Tareli said pushing up her Shades. "Why did we move here in the first place?! Why couldn't we just stay at our old hive?" Gracer asked her Moirail. "Better jobs, and this place is bigger. Especially since three other people are living with us." Tareli answered lifting a box. "Now take this and go pick a room." Tareli handed Gracer the box and pointed down the hall. "Three more people? Do we even know them?!" Gracer asked. She was quite tired and agitated after all the tiring work she had done just to set up her block in her room. "Yes, three more people. Easier to pay the rent. And once I get a better job and enough money. We can move out and find a hive of our own." Tareli answered ruffling Gracer's black hair. Gracer huffed then walked down into a good sized room and set her box down. She flopped onto the bed and groaned into the sheets. Gracer growled and mumbled daedric words under her breath. "Alright, fine. I'm going outside to explore some crap." Gracer said before grumping out of the house. "Desk or no!?" She heard her Moirail call from the house. "YES!" She shouted still agitated. She walked down her street to the nearby park. "Stupid park, stupid moving, stupid jobs, stuPID SH-!" She shouted the last part. She stopped herself from cursing because she knew how much other people cussing hurt her feelings. She kicked the bench and growled at it. She walked around the giant pond in search of something to calm her nerves. "The heck am I expecting, a Fu- Freaking spa around the corner." She grumbled arms crossed shoulder high and head lowered. She stared at the ground and kicked at pebbles in the ground. Until something caught her eye. She walked into a secluded space that didn't even resemble the park. Looking around she saw a lone tree. "Finally Peace and quiet." She mumbled looking around the field. Amazingly the Park was loud but the field right next to it was dead silent. "I thought I saw something though." She said looking around. She turned in circles before spotting the shiny glow. "There you are ya little Bic- Shi- As-. . ." She gave up and walked to the shiny glow. "Wow!" She said looking at the huge hole that was pretty hard to miss. "Why did it take so long to notice this!?" She grumbled she bent down and looked in it. "Hmm." She said, standing she went to turn, but slipped on a pebble. She fell down the (Rabbit) Hole. "SHMITME!" She didn't hold back. She held her eyes shut. Muttering curses under her breath, but she caught each one with a friendly term (Shiz). 

She opened her eyes and squinted. She was looking at the sky. Back flat on the ground eyes open and breathing heavy. She sat up and panicked. "Where am I!?" She shouted. "Ow!" She was hit with something she looked and it was the pebble. "Darn you, Ya little Shiz!" She yelled, throwing the pebble. She stood up and brushed herself off. "Where am I?" She asked again. She looked around and saw hives and stores nearby. She walked around looking for her the park again. "The heck is this place?" She asked herself yet another question.
