I'll tell you all how the story ends

[cleartranquil]

Who: Ghost Quest kids and all those who want to see them.
What: So as it turns out, going against the label might've been a bad move. Who knew, right? 
When: Feb 3rd and after 
Where: Pride HQ
Warnings: Talk of torture, aftermath of violence, aftermath of brainwashing, dudes there's some dark stuff.

For the past three days, the troublemakers and ghost helpers of Pride Records were kept locked away from their friends and their bands. 

As far as everyone else knew, they were just gone. And then they were back. 

They are all worse for wear, some far more than others and some much more mentally than physically, but they are all returned to their penthouses, finally, at the end of their ordeals. 

But, at least they're back. Somewhat in one piece. For the most part.

[Yuffie's silent for a long moment.]

....When I was gone, they told me they fired Fetch.

[ Yuffie's goes as if to continue talking and then stops, fighting an ingrained response. ]

I can't find anything.. I can't find anything anywhere about what happened to her. Or to Alec, or Wakana.

[ She pauses again. ]

It's like they're just...gone.

[twoscompany]

...Or Richard.

[Why?]

They...can't just be gone. There has to be a way to talk to them...!

[cleartranquil]

[Yuffie has her theory about what happened. It's a theory that's been brewing for a while and she hates it more than anything else she can think of.]

....They're willing to do a lot of really bad stuff, you know?

I wouldn't put anything past...past her.

[Yuffie's face probably gives away exactly what she thinks happened to the lost members of their bands. It's already been shown that it's easy to breeze over the death of musicians in the city. So what's to say she wouldn't just...?]

[twoscompany]

...I won't...I won't let that be the case. I can't...I...I have to have proof...!

[Garnet could just be in denial, but how could she not be? How could she not cling to this hope?]

[cleartranquil]

[ Yuffie looks down at her tea. ]

I'm just sayin' if ya get it, ya might not like what ya get.

[She pauses, and then shrugs, a little like she's trying very hard not to be the worst kind of downer. She wants to have hope too, but it's been a bit beaten out of her.]

I want it to be different, but....[She stops and just starts tapping her nails against her mug.]

[twoscompany]

I...I have to.

[Her grip on her cup comes back.]

I'm sorry, Yuffie. The truth...I need to know, we all do, don't we?
