About The Scarlett Kite
Hi! I'm Scarlett Kiteway, I'm 20 years old, a journalism student in Perplex City and this is my blog all about the excitement over the search for the Cube. I'll be keeping track of what the media over there is saying about it, and maybe a little bit about my life as well!

Something happens
Category: me, 09:43 AM
Sorry about the cliffhanger yesterday - I think old habits die hard. But I suppose if finding old, brave Scarlett means also rediscovering my enjoyment of cliffhangers, it's worth the trade. And I really think I am finding her again. I feel so much better now, so much calmer and like I know what I'm doing again. I can't help worrying that it won't last but I hope, I so hope it will. So, Vi and I came up with a plan. I'm going undercover at the Sentinel! Not very undercover, of course, because they all know who I am. (I asked Violet if we could come up with some kind of disguise for me, but she seemed to think that wasn't the best idea. She was very kind about it though - I wonder how long it'll be until I can make her properly tetchy with me again ;-) ).
Here's the plan: I go into the Sentinel today at lunchtime to talk to Iona. This was really easy to organise because everyone's so nice to me right now. I'm going to ask her if she knows about who might have broken into our house - no one's been arrested, but our best guess is still that it was a journalist looking for information. It doesn't seem likely that Iona will be able to tell me anything but it's worth a try; she might have some leads that could help or, if I'm very lucky, I'll manage to wangle my way onto the Sentinel key systems and see if anyone's been trying to sell information about us.
It's so nice to be back. I haven't burst into tears about anything for more than a day now! I'm worried about going back there, but everyone's been so supportive. Violet's annoyingly insisting that I 'check in' with her as soon as I leave the Sentinel - she and Caine are still so worried about me. But I really think I'm getting better, I've even called a couple of friends and I'm looking forward to Caine's band's gig next week - the only way is up!
