1st memory - action
Annie had woken up in this place screaming. Pounding against the capsule until it had opened up, and the light had poured in. she had grabbed everything she found on instinct, and then had just started running, running and running.
She didn't know where she was. She didn't know what had happened to Robin, or to her "father" or to anyone. She had been dying, her mind being crushed and her body being dissolved... was this the inside of her father's mind? It seemed far too pretty for that.
She couldn't feel him anymore. How could that be possible unless she was dead? And where had all these people gone, and where was she? She wondered if it had all been a dream.
None of it made sense. She didn't know what to do except to run through the streets.
I think your italics will work if its a lowercase i rather than a capital.
"Miss? Miss are you alright? You... Ohhh..." A small frown, the girl tilting her head, a sphere larger than her fist drifting closer to Alice. It seemed to be connected to the girl somehow via two cords winding around her body, disappearing in her shoes. The sphere resembled a closed eye.
A wave of calm passed over Alice. Not overly potent or forceful but it might help take the edge off her panic. "Wow I've never seen anything like that before... Your mind is very interesting miss. It's not structured like a regular human's. I like it a lot. It's neat."
Oops. I had the post in rich text mode instead of html.
She wanted to run further.
"I... I don't know what you're talking about..." Maybe she could. She could use her powers to get away.
It's all good
"Hello Miss! It's nice to meet you. My name is Koishi Komeiji. I'm a satori youkai. But you don't have to be scared of me, okay? I can't read minds anymore." She let go of her and, tilting her hat up with her thumb. She was... completely ignoring Alice's clay shenanigans. "Sometimes I don't make sense though, okay? I'm sorry for that."
"Are you lost miss? Please don't be shaky and yellow. If you crinkle like that then things won't make any sense at all. Did you just wake up?"
no subject
"I-I just woke up here, and nothing makes sense anymore." Now there was a woman saying strange random things, and doing something she didn't even understand...
no subject
"When you arrive they give you a paper with stuff written on it. It explains where you are. It's like a strange world where you get taken away to. It's a lot of fun. There are a bunch of different cities and a lot of fun and interesting things to do. Both humans and non-humans." A tilt of the head.
"Are you human miss? Your mind is interesting but I... Can't actually tell." A little embarrassment in her voice. "You don't smell human either. You smell like a river and a forest and other rich and wonderful things. It's very very pleasant."
no subject
Nothing about her life makes sense, and she's scared, and she just wants to run, and she doesn't know what it is she's doing...
no subject
She was letting her calming presence wash over the girl. She was sentient so it should work, even if she was made of clay.
"Come on." She pointed to a bench. "Have a seat and catch your breath. I can find you some water if you want." Her third eye bobbed a little. She seemed harmless enough overall. "I'm not good at explaining things but I'll try really hard, okay?"
no subject
She wasn't actually sure whether she could eat or drink at all... but she thought she could use a rest. A nice... rest.
"O...Okay...."
no subject
"I'll try to answer any questions you have if you ask them really clearly. My head gets mixed up sometimes. But when you're done resting we should find you a place to sleep for the night..." A pause. "Oh! I think I know where too, but catch your breath first, okay?"
As odd as she was, Koishi was at least trying to be friendly and keep her calm.
no subject
"I don't understand what's going on...." she was repeating herself, but it was true. She didn't get it. The world had just been starting to make sense. Now she was lost again.
"I was dead..."
no subject
Koishi paused at the last line, pursing her lips. Slowly, deliberately, she reached forward and poked Annie in the shoulder... Several times in fact. "Nope! You're not dead. See? I'm not passing through you. And even if you were dead that would be okay too. Some of my best friends are dead, like Mister Stripes. All being dead does is make you paler and let you float through walls. And you get lots of neat powers!"
no subject
Somehow, though, she had ended up in this weird place with this weird girl. It was scary and she didn't know what to make of it.
no subject
"You're still really scared miss. Did you pick up things from the pod you woke up in? You should read those. I get nervous when I'm confused so if you understand more maybe you'll feel better?"
no subject
Her body.
no subject
"Ohh That's really neat Miss! I wish I had a power like that. I'm really really solid."
She turned her attention just as quickly to the objects. "Miss White said I should tell people to read this and tell them to keep the necklace and video thing safe because they're really important and to direct people to the welcome center if they have questions... but the welcome center is far away so just read that for now."

"Oh! Miss! Do you have a place to stay for the night? I know where you can go!" The little youkai hopped to her feet, offering her hand. "Come on."
no subject
Safety was.
no subject
She did not withdraw her hand, still offering it. "I have a really nice friend. He's a really sweet and gentle human and he's really polite and likes tea a lot. I think you'll like him a lot. He's a really good friend."
no subject
She stared at the hand. "I... I don't know..."
no subject
She kept her hand held out invitingly.
no subject
no subject
Backing up, she tried to back away. "S-Stay away!"
no subject
"There, there, they're gone now, little one. I'm sorry if they scared you. They were just trying to protect me and meant you no harm.
no subject

no subject
"Wh...How did you..."
no subject
no subject
Or what to make in anything.
no subject
"That's alright. We'll leave it for another time. Did you get hurt just now when you bumped into me? What were you running away from?"
no subject
"....Everything.
"I. I"m not hurt... I just odn't know where I am...."
no subject
"Everything? Oh, well, this place is called Genessia and it's really quite safe."
no subject
"It doesn't feel safe...." she whispered. Even though she can't feel him anymore. She can't feel him coming closer to her, for the first time she can remember.
But. But. "It's so big."
no subject
"It doesn't? What exactly is scaring you? Maybe there's some way we can get rid of it. Oh, you're scared because it's too big then? Maybe you'd feel better if we went indoors?"
no subject
"I'm scared of everything. I don't know... I don't know what to do..."
no subject
"... everything?" There's certainly a lot of work to be done here! "Well, let's do everything slowly step-by-step then. First, we should get indoors. What about the hotel? You'd need a place to stay for now after all."
