(NYC) Field: Central Park

[NeoBuster]

Neo walked out the hotel and walked to what seemed like a huge park.

"So this is Central Park. Ive heard alot of things about it" Neo said to himself

Neo picked up a mini map and started walking around. He walked up to a pool area and noticed Haruki and Hazama there.

"Hey guys" Neo said while waving to them both

[Kuro]

"I'll be sure to show you how I've grown with my clan Hazama. With justice at my side, there's no way I'll back down." Haruki was determined for his fight with Hazama rapidly approaching.

Suddenly, he heard a call of hello and saw Neo walking towards them. The young man of justice waved back in the same friendly way and gave a happy greeting in return.

"Hey Neo. Great to see that you made it here."

[NeoBuster]

"Yeah I barely made it haha" Neo said to Haruki

The 12 hour flight and Airplane food, sadly we have to go through it again when we travel back" Neo said

How do you like Central Park so far?" Neo asked Haruki

[Jello]

"Noah.. Grimm?" Haruka scratched his chin.

"Can't say I know the name... Oh, I'm Haruka by the way. Haruka Nakahara." He outstretched his hand for a shake. He was rather interested in this Shiki guy. He seemed rather awkward, but at the same time not the worst guy ever.

He could have been Cero.

Cero AP -2

"Well, I wish you luck with your fights. Seems like I have to head to the stadium for mine actually, heh." He leaves his hand out for a shake, just before heading back to the arena for his first fights... With his girlfriend.

Oh, joy.

Akama Shiki AP +3

[Helios]

Hazama hears another familiar voice approaching him from behind. He turns around, phone in hand as a little flashlight to see if it really was him.

"Well it's the guy who almost died. Oh how it was funny when you passed out. Though I couldn't have let you die. So I'm guessing you are here for the circuit too."

[NeoBuster]

"Well if it isnt Hazama" Neo said to him

"Thats right, im here for the circuit as well" Neo said to him

Neo was surprised to see Hazama here, even if Hazama still had his "evil" attitude. Neo had something to say to himas well as Haruki.

"Seeing as your both here, I wanted to thank you both for saving my life that day" Neo said to them both

"I owe you both"

[Helios]

"Relax, I only did it because you made me laugh so hard on the inside, I just didn't want to say that to Haruki, he might have had another fit, which would have also been funny but annoying," he replied to Neo.

[Kuro]

Hazama started to greet Neo too. Although not in the best way, Neo managed to handle the man's harsh way with words in a kinder way, even thanking them for saving him so long ago. Haruki decided to be more accepting of Hazama's personality too.

"That time before was nothing Neo. Any other time and I'm sure we'd help you the same, because that's what friends are for. As for Central Park, it's great. Way bigger than I ever expected, but that makes it even more fun." Haruki was happy to see that his friend arrived alright after the long flight to their first destination.

[Helios]

"Oh please, saving one guy from dying, I will do, but any other reason, it's not my problem," he said to Haruki who was trying to make Neo feel reassured.

"Well I better get going, my hotel is a 15 minute walk from here. Better hope you all know your way around this city because it's easier to get lost, and I am definitely not coming to find you."

Hazama puts one headphone in his ear and resumes the song Classic "T-Mix" Remix by T-Pain.

He cuts in front of them to his path. As soon as he reaches the middle point between the two, he says, "May destruction be placed upon you, then may despair bring you all down to nothingness."

He continues walking into the darkness.

[NeoBuster]

Neo watched Hazama walk off. Then he turned to Haruki

"SO Haruki are you ready for the circuit?" Neo asked him

[Kuro]

Hazama walked away saying some strange and dark things. Haruki hoped he would be alright, but also knew that he would definitely be in a better mood for their match tomorrow. He turned to Neo once again to talk about the New York leg of the World Circuit.

"Yeah Neo. I'm set for the Circuit after getting to see one of the great sights of New York today. Turns out my opponent is going to be Hazama. How about you?"

[NeoBuster]

"Im ready for this!" Neo said with energy.

I hope we meet deep in the tournament, I wanted to fight you in this circuit bro and I hope we do" Neo said to Haruki

[Kuro]

"Well I'll do my best to get through the rounds of the tournament and face off with you then." Haruki picked up his bag off the ground and started to say his farewells, as it was getting late.

"Looks like it's time to head back to the hotel. Good luck in your first round of the World Circuit, Neo." He gave a friendly wave goodbye and headed off to get some sleep before his fight tomorrow.

Hazama AF +2
Neo AF +2

[NeoBuster]

Neo waved goodbye to Haruki and decided to walk back to the hotel himself. There was something he wanted to do.

+2 AF to Haruki and Hazama

[Jello]

Aaaaand now he was outside again.

Haruka realized there was no way to deal with his inner sub-zero. The frost was crawling all over his bones. So he figured the best thing would be to go enjoy a little bit of sun. He got dressed up for nearly snow weather, in the blazing hot sun.

Instead of sitting on a bench, awaiting to be taken by hypothermia, he instead decided to go for a jog. That would work up a sweat and force him to heat up.

Hopefully.
