It had taken Ukon several days to come up with a plan on how to get from one district to another. He knew it was illegal, clearly, but he was going to give it a try. He figured the worst thing that could happen was either A] he'd be sent back to Cena, or B] they'd kill him. A grateful death, in his opinion, seeing as he had yet to die. It was almost torturous, this disease he carried. It was only livable, not curable. Well. . .he imagined it could have been cured, if he went through with the surgery to have his heart valves fixed. But he didn't have the money to pay for the operation, and really hadn't even considered it anyway. He was sure there were others with this problem much worse than he. And it wasn't as if he hadn't gone 20 years with it.

Having decided it would be best to make himself scarce early in the morning, Ukon left for Celo at roughly thee or four. He figured with his pace, having to wait at the gates and walls, and generally finding his way around. . .time would not be a problem. After getting to the wall between the two districts, he waited for a hour before a chance arose. The changing of a shift. How simple. Ukon felt it was too simple, but once on the other side he changed clothes and tied back his hair. Look neat and clean, respectable. He took note of the slightly lesser amount of guards. Probably because all of these people were all high and mighty and safe. They didn't need cops. Ha. Oh well, Ukon wasn't here to do anything devious anyway.

Taking a deep breath, and having to stifle a cough in the process, he realized it was just better here. He wasn't sure he'd like to live in Celo. It looked boring at seven in the morning where he sat on a bench. Ukon doubted it would be entertaining any other time of the day. But, checking his watch and seeing the time was slowly ticking by, he got up onto his feet. Slinging his bag over his shoulder, the man started on his walk. It took him an hour and a half to find the flower shop. He had not expected it to take THAT long, but then again he was slow and had no idea where he was. Nor did he have a map.

Looking up and down the street, Ukon adjusted the had on his head which covered his obscure hair, and crossed. The bell to the shop rang at 9:30AM when he opened the door, stepping inside.
