Money Walks, Bullshit Talks.
1 h o u r|l a t e r.
I'm sure my sister was curious as to how long it was going to take me. I was now heading back out into the street, yet I didn't rush to meet her. I knew rushing would only make me look like a fool had I reached the park any later than I was, so I walked. The streets were calm, yet a good number of civilians crowded the area around me. I wasn't one for big crowds, but it couldn't be helped. I slipped my hands into my pockets and approached towards the northern part of town where I would find the park I told Mitsu to meet me at. I would have to take a couple of blocks before crossing a bridge directly across from the massive castle at a distance in the center of the city. Upon reaching that bridge, I stopped and looked over at the castle. It was simply a landmark in the village, but I believed more was behind that story. I had a notion that something special lie in that place. I wanted what no one had, and that was the prize for me to take. I was positive that people have attempted that endeavor in the past, and apparently all failed, but I refused to. At that moment, I decided I wanted to investigate it. My eyes stared at the castle sternly, my hands gripped the bridge tightly.[/size][/ul][/ul][/ul][/blockquote]

"Don't play coy with me, my patience is wearing thin."
"I'm not. If you just let me go to my shop, I can get you the money.""And if you run off?"
"Ugh...well...you know where I live, yes?""....fine. Be quick, I have errands to run."

He knew very well there wouldn't be enough time for him to move out of the city, and if he ever chose to, I would keep a careful eye on him. So, because of this, I let him run out of the alleyway, stumbling over himself to get out of my sight before I changed my mind. With my arms crossed, I pushed off of the wall I leaned upon and approached the main street where the man had left me. I could see him in the distance, though his sprint had slowed to a jog now that he was a distance away. Shaking my head, I turned towards the opposite direction, heading to the Ramen Shop I promised to meet Mitsu at. It wasn't far either, and within a few minutes, I was there. She sat quietly, her head resting upon her right palm, elbow rested upon the bar before her seat. Her other hand fiddled with two chopsticks and the ramen in her bowl. I sat upon the seat next to her and studied her lazy habit, crossing my arms upon the ramen bar.[/ul][/ul][/ul][/blockquote]
[/b]"[/right]"Because, I'm bored all of the time."
"You weren't complaining yesterday during our training session."
"That's just it, oni-chan. I feel like training more.""No one told you to wait for me here. If you had said that, you could have left minutes ago."
[/ul][/ul][/blockquote][/blockquote][/ul][/ul][/blockquote]
[/b]"[/right]Looking over her shoulder: "Yea....okay."
"Meet me at the park. We'll train there today."
"Okay. Don't take too long."[/ul][/ul][/blockquote][/blockquote][/ul][/ul][/blockquote]
[/b]"[/right]"Wha—"
"This one is the firmest of them all..."
Eying the apple: "Umm...haha. You're too kind, but I couldn't.""Please, I insist. I didn't buy it yet."
[/ul][/ul][/blockquote][/blockquote][/i]; she didn't. She invited me into her place were we drank tea casually, and then from that point on the story lingers onto a subject much too private to discuss.
