Riku walked with Sunshine through the street and made notes of damages he could notify the proper authorities of. A bench was on fire, some shops were looted, pieces of the street itself were ripped apart. He sighed. "I dunno if anyone here would even appreciate help. Most of them don't trust us" there were a few people around, staring at them. And he was pretty sure one or two were following them, so his hand hovered near his holster at all times.

“This is why we establish trust. Also you said it yourself, the blue sky is new,” Sunshine said. She ran a hand through her hair, cooling down her powers. She had healed a broken leg from someone pinned against a dumpster. Her husband was never far, protective as he was.

"I hope it can help, gestures and the blue sky" There had been hostility in this area for years. And being a Lafayette he'd always been raised to be careful in this area. He and Weiss had their share of notes thrsatening kidnapping for years. Not so muvh now that they were fallen from grace as it were. Riku moved so he could keep an eye on the person following them. One had disappeared, and he was trying to duscreetly look around to see where they had gone. This other one though...they seemed to be stumbling. Drunk? Drugged? Hurt? He couldn't tell. But simething about him made Riku uneasy. Still...Riku nudged his wife. "The guy in the black hoodie. Something is off. He might be trying to get help"

"Well you know what they say; you'll always find light in the deepest darkness." And Gafcon Perdu was a great example of that. The town had been going through a ton of darkness for years. Rumor had it that even back before the urbanites and apocalypse, there was some bad stuff going on. Sunshine took a smal glance over at her hsuband. He was getting antsy. Well, antsier. Before she could ask what was going on, he pointed to a figure in a black hoodie. There was some staggering going on. "Okay. I'll see what's up." She approached tentatively. "Excuse me. Are you doing all right?"

"I know" he smiled at her a little. "Thanks for being here, seeing yoi reminds me of that every day" he was trying see the good in everything, but sometimes it was hard. He watched as the figure got closet to them, and stayed close to Sun as she moved to help him. The figure fell to his knees and looked up at them, helplessly. Riku moved so fast away from the figure you'd have thought the guy was trying to kill him. Because under that hood, framed by long silver white hair, was Riku's face. Riku didn't know what kind if magic this was, but seeing a doppelganger, according to the stories, meant upcoming tragedy.
"I don't know where I am, I don't feel good, I want to...gohome" The doppel noticed Riku and looked terrified.
"Why do you look like me?!"

Sunshine blushed. Well, so much for keeping this job on a professional level. She ducked her eyes down, long enough to see the hooded figure had heard her. The figure fell to their knees. She was expecting him to offer the wrists so cuffs could be slapped on, as they did in the movies, but none of that happened. What happened next had her head spinning. The person bowing before them was completely identical to Riku. This wasn't just her artistic skills in noticing differences talking. The young man bowing before them had the exact same silver hair, even cut in the same shag. But getting him to calm down was the first step. She knelt down to his level, speaking calmly.
"Define 'don't feel good.' Are you dizzy? Are you injured?"

Riku felt exceedingly jumpy. "There was someone not far from him, they either helped him or..." He had no idea what this was. It was not voodoo, that was for certain. "I won't go far, but I should look for them, see what the story is, if they know it" better get away from the replica, so they could both calm down.
"I-I'm not sure...kinda woozy, I might be bleeding, but I don't know. My clothes are damp" his voice was meeker than Riku's but otherwise the exact same. "Maybe it was...I don't remember anything. Mother and Father told me I was attacked and have amnesia...I hope Weiss is okay..." He started swaying, looking a little green. "I want to go home" he said, very faintly.

Sunshine said nothing as her patrol partner fled. Part of her knew why. If she saw someone who was an exact copy of who she was, it would be jarring. The eplica spoke timidly, almost like he would be afraid of getting locked somewhere. That wasn't her intentions at all. Loathe for her to day, she culdn't even use her married name; Sunshine Lafayette. It would confuse him more.
"My name is Detective Sunshine Seddon. I'm not going to hurt you. Your family is..." she thought of a word to use. Okay wasn't exactly the best way to put it. Not with Jacques and Ciri in jail. "We can get you home. You're going to be fine."

"I haven't been outside since...since what happened. I snuck out, I wanted to see Weiss" he wrapped his arms around himself. He smiled at her name. "Sunshine. Suits you really..relllygood" he was slurring words. He put his hand in the hood and touched his head, his fingers came back covered in a silver-red that oozed off his fingers. "cunc'ssion" he slurred and blinked very fast. "not good. No. Feel bad"
While Riku had been keepin an eye on his wife and replica, he was also checking around for any sign of the othet person. There was a narrow alleyand he flashed a light down it. Nothing, though it looked like there was a way to get to the roof via dumbsters and a rusted emergency stair fire escape. Riku took a few steps farther in, ready to call for help. There was blood on the dumbster, and a snatch of clothing. He carefully picked it up with an inside out evidence bag and backed out backwards till he was safe on tje street before he wrapped the clothing into the bag. He walked iver to his wife. "I found blood, fresh, and scraps of clothes on a dumbster. We should call someone to investigat, before we...uh...get him situated" he said softly.

Sunshine stared at the exact replica of her husband. The way he spoke was...past tense. These were all things that got wrapped up two, maybe three years ago. Wanting to see Weiss was the one thread she could trace back to without giving him a sense of shock. "Weiss is okay. She's..." but upon seeing the blood on the young man's temple, she frowned. A concussion that drew blood was bad. Riku returned with a sample of blood and clothing. She nodded approvingly. "Good. He's suffered a concussion, hasn't been outside in...roughly three, maybe four years give or take." She lowered her voice to a whisper that only her husband could hear. "He said he was looking for Weiss."

Riku grimaced. "Being locked up that long, drove me insane, drove Weiss insane. And he didn't have anyone....unless someone made a Weiss copy too" he handed his wife the evidence before moving to catch...himself...before he faceplanted on the pavement. "Sun," he started, relatively calmly given the circumstances. "We should take him to the hospital and take a blood sample for Anna and Dorian. I don't think we shoild leave him on the pavement. Whatever hurt him might come back, or the person holdimg him..at home? Actually, he might not even have lived in my parent's mansion. Home might be with whoever..." He swallowed and looked down at the copy. "Whoever made him"

Sunshine’s jade eyes were widened. Riku and Weiss were locked up? He had mentioned being a victim of physical abuse, but it had been the first time he ever mentioned being sealed shut in a room. She thought of her experiences under Jasmine’s thumb. The vampires had all but cut her off from the world and she was pretty sure, in hindsight, that her blood wasn’t what they wanted. Her husband caught his doppelgänger, suggesting a hospital trip. “I’ll call an ambulance,” and she faced away, hoping he didn’t catch her turning a sick pallor.

Riku held the other him in his arms and hoped the head wound wasn’t going to kill him. Because while he’d rather not have another him running around, he was even less enthused at the thought of burying himself. This was terrifying, but probably more so for the replica, seeing what he thought was a fake, sneaking out after years of being locked up to see what he thought was his sister. Poor guy. Riku looked over at Sun. “Might also want to call a police guard, or I can stand watch. In case whoever was keeping him tries to get him back”

Sunshine nodded. The call was brief, and the explanation was kept blunt. She didn’t want to get garbled with information overload about clones or replicas or whatever. She pocketed the phone and looked at the head injury. “I’ve seen worse to be honest.”

He nodded as she looked at the head wound. “I don’t doubt it. But the hospital was suggested as it’s one of those places where we can run tests and keep him under observation without much push back. He might have been drugged, we can check for that. We can also keep him from danger. I don’t know ehat’s Going on but I want to keep him safe in a non threatening location till we can figure out what to do” he glanced at his wife. “Do you think that’s a good call?”
