"Listen, I know we have to run errands and be on our guard, but I'd like to make a request: We have to go back to the Black Rainbow. That arrow that I was talking about last night, the one that I shouldn't have which grants magical abilities to people? It's in my room, and we should probably retrieve it before whoever lost it in the gang puts two and two together."
Cameron began to speak as the three Stand users began to make their way to a more populated area of Tokyo. He was worried, and understandably so. Hachi realized that the boy was younger than she, and apparently still in school. She probably could have guessed so from that blazer he seemed to wear perpetually. Considering the arrow's significance, it was probably a good idea to make a short detour. Hachi altered their course, mapping out in her head where the Black Rainbow was and where they were. She was able to recall the path Edmond had taken them down the night before, and it was simply a matter of retracing their steps until they reached the area where the cafe was. From there, it would just be a few more minutes at a brisk pace.
"That's fine. But it's better if we take the back alleyways. They might be expecting us to try and return to our homes." Hachi took a sharp left into a narrow alleyway that was half-blocked with large bins and scattered pieces of junk. She felt almost certain that she was heading in the right direction.
"H-hey, before I forget, you guys should probably get a cut of this cash. We won't be splitting up, but it just feels fair that you each have control over what he gave to you." Joel, who had been silent, pushed a wad of yen into Hachi's hand. She stared at it for a moment before shoving it into her jacket pocket, almost tripping over a rusted metal box in the process. Muttering out a word of thanks, she found herself surprised at Joel's trust. This was their whole livelihood at the moment, and it was imperative that it be spent wisely.
Despite the warm morning sun, Hachi felt incredibly on edge. Every clink and clatter in the alleys they navigated through sent a chill up her spine. It wasn't as if she expected an enemy to pop up out of nowhere... But was that entirely out of the question? It all came to a head when a stray cat darted in front of Hachi, who shrieked and stamped her foot down, narrowly missing the feline and shattering the pavement instead.
"Dammit," she groaned, deciding to place the blame for her poor reaction on her empty stomach. She stepped to the side, letting someone else take the lead in the narrow alley.
"We should be close. Don't suppose your parents would mind if you grabbed something for us to eat?"
