( She idly... Held a hand out, as if to reach for the knob on the locker door, but... Found herself paused. Hesitant. )
( Just whose was this..? Why was it here of all places? Was its owner somehow able to survive without it..? )
( Peering through the slits in the locker... )
( The red glow, the heart shape... It hit her like a truck. She was already well-aware of what a SOUL was, what they looked like, what her own looked like, at that... This was somebody's SOUL, abandoned in a locker. )

( The aggressive banging was now a rhythmic tapping against the locker door from the inside, at least telling the girl that, whoever's SOUL this was... Wasn't... Violent? At least, she'd hope... )
( Still, she was reluctant to try opening the locker. )

( Still... Keeping her arms crossed, she casually walks towards the console, not seeming to mind the touch. Seems she knows her place and power. )

( As she squeezes, Dess could hear a strange sound - it was as if a long, drawn out squeak came from the girl's very SOUL. The sound of a plush toy being squeaked, with a sad, almost depressive tone... )
( She could justβ¦ Enter the code, open the doors that way, butβ¦ Something in her didnβt want to do it that way. She knew Dess was inside, her heart screamed that it wasβ¦ )
( β¦She extends her left arm to the side, calling her Keyblade into her hand. )

@RoaringKnight08 ( Her voice is a little wobblier. Even if she didn't know what happened, she could tell it was dire. )
I- It's okay. Y... Yuh don't have tuh say anything. I'm here, I'm here... Sshhh...
( Under her breath, she quietly murmurs. )
I- I missed you so badly...
