(GS3) Field: Destroyed Shopping District

[RosaliaIzanami]

Rosalia stuck her tongue out at the male, huffing as she gathered up the instrument, bow, and case. It was worth the price at least, since it came with a few basic care items as a set, and the case held it all. "Of course I know to take care of it, rude.. I may be hard to deal with, but I'm not an idiot when it comes to instruments.. Especially instruments that are gifts..." she added the last part quietly as she handed it all over to the store clerk to be purchased. She waited off to the side until Seifer could finish the transaction, then carried the loaded case carefully along with her school bag. "T-thank you, Seifer.." Rosalia said, again rather quietl but she was sure Seifer could hear her, a light blush returning to her cheeks. "S-so now what do you wanna do? I got my violin, so you get to pick next."

[Hope]

Nothing. Just trying to make her feel guilt, but he's also on the same boat, there's no use running away from it...

Her power, star travel enabled Hana to map out his location despite him having left, as long as star light covered the area he was in, she could picture his location. It was afternoon and the sun was blazing stronger than ever. The sun itself, was a star. Her vision was clearer than ever.

She chased after him, cutting him off in his path. She still had more to say, the decision had already been made. There was no turning back.

"Why do you think money and fame is what I think would make you happy! If that was so then I would be the happiest person ever, but I'm not." she shook a little, trying to stand tall. "You're already what I want you to be. I'll forgive you for the things you've been doing... I know I can't be forgiven, but I don't care I just want you to fogive me... When I said I'll give you anything, I meant myself.. I'll give you all of me."

"Isabella." Reit called out. "If he isn't listening then we can just find the happiness we desire elsewhere."
"There is nowhere else..." she answered back.

"I don't care what you do... Just take me with you. I lost my girlfriend and my sister in exchange for fame a year ago... At the end of it I gained you. I lost them but then.. got someone better, really I have nowhere else to turn to.. You should understand. Please." she bowed to him, the Princess bowing down to a guy dressed in a suit. Ironic.

[Cipher Izanagi]

The brunette paid in exact change, smiling as she held the violin. It looked... right... for some reason. "You look cute with it. ...Play it for me sometime?" he asked, glancing away and scratching the back of his head to hide an embarrassed blush. However when she asked what he wanted to do, he thought for a moment shutting his eyes. "I guess... We could go get something to eat?... I'm kinda hungry honestly..." he admitted, looking back at Rosalia.

[RosaliaIzanami]

The redhead felt her cheeks warm up again, tenfold this time when asked to play for him one day. "A-alright. You'll have to bear with me though now that I have an instrument to play at home, s-so..." She trailed off in thought after that, not even sure what to play. She would have to look up sheet music later (thank the heavens for Internet). In the meantime, she smiled brightly as if that would hide her fluster. "Food sounds good right about now~ Did you wanna get something to eat while out or wanna head home and make something?"

[Skyzlimitz]

Sky got off of work extremely happy. Not only did one of the students ask him to advise her club, but today was pay day! Which meant Sky could finally buy a mattress for his apartment like he always wanted. As he walked through the shopping district Sky saw a familiar face. It was the girl from the drycleaners. Seifers sister/ other woman in his life. He remembered the last time they met, instead of getting her name he got a kick in the face from her. But no need to hold grudges Sky had some time before the mattress store closed so he decided to say hi. "Hello there, my friend!" Sky said waving toward the girl.

[Cipher Izanagi]

Seifer nodded in agreement, really just biding his time so he could hear her play. At the mention of how they should get the food however, he was stumped. Should they take it home and watch television? Or should they eat out? "Well... It's kind of hot. Maybe we can just get the food to go, and sit in the air conditioning at home?" that might be the better option of the two since eating while it's hot out isn't the best idea sometimes.

[Jello]

She won't quit it, will she-

"Listen to her."

Haruka's eyes widened. He stopped breathing for a moment. Not from being scared by the girl, but that voice... it was gallant. It was vicious. That voice boomed in his head once like it had before. The heat Haruka was feeling had become intense, nearly sweltering. Yet on the outside, Haruka wasn't even close to breaking a sweat anymore. This was the familiar heat of home...

He nodded, responding to what he believed to be the voice he thought it was.

And so Haruka did, he listened to what Hana had to say, ready to push her aside the second she said something he found ridiculous. But what she said was... all honest. Or at least, Haruka felt as though it was. He had no idea whether to view her as a weak stray, someone to look after and nurture, or treacherous leech that attached itself to him by chance.

Haruka flicked Hana on the head.

"Stand up straight, you dolt." Haruka's face was still holding a cold expression, somewhat rigid. He wasn't happy with this outcome.

"You won't find what you're really looking for here. What happened these past few days was... I don't know. It won't happen again..."

"But I'll stand by you." Haruka held out the hand, gracing the white glove. He smiled, his eyes showing sincerity. This was the only chance for redemption he'd allow her.

"As of today I'm your friend, Haruka Nakahara. I'm not your lover; I can't ever be what Miyuki was. I'll never be able to really influence you the way Yukino might have." This was the only compromise he could make with her. If she couldn't accept these terms, he was ready to turn away as many times as he had too.

He didn't even care about love at the moment. Yukino's, Hana's, perhaps Shiki's(). All he wanted was... well, he didn't know what he wanted anymore. But he had to take at least one leap for her.

I just want the old Hana back.

"What do you say, Hana?"

His thoughts and his words overlapped one another, but they still rang the same truth.

[Cece Lockhart]

Noel was walking until he heard a familiar but unfamiliar voice as she was walking out of the cardshop. Oh great, it's that guy from the dry cleaners and then the park

"How can you call me your friend after kicking your face? I'm surprised you don't have a concussion after that." Noel said and sighed because she knew that he was about to be part of her day. "So how can I help you... ummm... uhh.... You. What's your name?"

[RosaliaIzanami]

Rosalia nodded, the smile on her lips fading only slightly as she laughed softly at the warmth. "Heh.. Yeah, it's kinda warm out. And for a skirt and blouse as a uniform, it doesn't really help with the heat... I'd rather not be carrying around the new violin too much either. I don't want anything to happen to it on the first day..." She glanced down at her new gift, a sense of excitement coming over her. It was a different kind of happiness when she won against Neo and Sky in her cardfights, but happiness was always a good thing. "Let's get going~ Food awaits!"

[Skyzlimitz]

"Well that wasn't the first time I've been attacked by a woman so I have no hard feelings! Also you're my friend because you're a cardfighter and I consider all fighters my friends!" Sky said smiling. "Oh yea and I'm Sky Carter its a pleasure.... I didn't get your name last time."

[Cece Lockhart]

"Why does that not surprise me... that's good at least. I wouldn't be friendly with every one who calls themselves a cardfighter. You can't trust people so easily like that. It will be your downfall one of these days." Noel said with a concerned-like look. She has seen those types of people get emotionally and mentally crushed before and sometimes the ending wasn't ever good. Sometimes they never got back up from a humiliation that she has seen before by her father. "Nice to meet you Sky, as for my last name... I don't know if I should say" She said holding her deck box containing her new deck tightly

[Skyzlimitz]

"Well if you find it hard to trust others, they too will find it hard to trust you. But I know what you mean. Maybe it's because Japan, or this city at least is way safer than the city I am from so I have become more trusting" Sky said still smiling. "Also you don't have to give me your last name, how about just your first?" Sky asked now chuckling.

[Cece Lockhart]

"Sometimes its better to be on your own. Get too attached to people and you will be too vulnerable and might fall for a trap or in something you will find hard on deciding. I do admit this city is quite peaceful." Noel said with a serious look. "My first name is Noel. I'm not sure if you are willing but can you cardfight with me in a little bit?"

[Skyzlimitz]

Sky truly did want to fight Noel, but he thought there might be a way to help her saddening view on people and fighting her now wouldn't be it. "I've got a better idea. Join the card fight club and I'll fight you there!" Sky believed that if he could get cave to join the club she'd meet many new people and she'd see that trusting and depending on others was not bad thing.

[Cece Lockhart]

"Cardfight club? There is such a thing as that? hmmm, I guess I could stop by if you tell me where it is..." Noel thought this might be an opportunity to become stronger, a lot more stronger.
