Sena had shut his book with a happy smile and using his speed, weaved around the crowds with ease, appearing at the front entrance of the inn in no time at all. He gently slid his book(which was thankfully, blood-page free) in his satchel and decided to wait for his new friend to appear.

He didn't have to wait for long. At the sound of his name, he looked up and smiled brightly in turn.

"Sora-kun," he greeted cheerfully, "thank you again for offering to help me around."

"Oh, no problem! My ro - It's no trouble at all."

Sora pointed up the street to Kaoru's shop, waiting for a few of the people to clear before speaking.

"That's Eagle's Splendour. Just so you know. So, what do you want to do?"

It was always better to let the person you were trying to make friends with choose at first, in Sora's opinion. You didn't want to come off as bossy or anything. Besides, if they chose, then everything tended to be more relaxed because they were more confident.

Or something. Sora wasn't so big on psychology.

"Um, well---I'd like to get some new clothes first, actually," Sena said sheepishly as he tugged at his hooded jacket, which had a light dusting of sand over it.

"and--well, I don't know anywhere else to go afterwards."

He was so lucky to meet such nice people. He smiled shyly.

"Okay! Then we'll just drop by and I'm pretty sure Kaoru won't mind."

Sora, without really thinking, grabbed Sena's hand - not tightly - and started pulling him through the crowd toward Eagle's Splendour. It wasn't because he was being rude or anything, he just didn't want to lose Sena. Even if it was just down the street, there was always time to get lost.

He of all people knew that.

A startled look flickered acrossed Sena's face when his slightly smaller friend grabbed his hand. But Sora's grip wasn't tight and really, he didn't mind. It reminded him of Monta, Suzuna and Mamori-nee whenever they wanted to drag him around anywhere.

And like the good little boy he was, he followed obediently.

When they got to Eagle's Splendour, Sora stopped. He let go of Sena's to open the door and hold it open.

"After you!"

He smiled brightly. His mother had always made him hold the door open for old ladies and the like and he figured that this wasn't much different. Hold the door open for other people. Not hard, right? It was just being polite.

"I'll just be downstairs... I promise... You just rest." That was what Kaoru told Hikaru as he descended the stairs. Miss Ciel wanted his help today with her nieces taking the day off.

He was a little stunned, though, by the sight of Sora and another boy entering the shop. He hadn't seen Sora in days, but the boy was looking so much better...

So, Kaoru walked over towards him, not bothering to notice the other customers for now. "Hey! Hey, Sora!" He waved, smiling.

"Kaoru!"

Figuring that Sena was fine for a minute, Sora ran up to Kaoru and hugged him. There were other people in the shop, but there were always other people and really. This wasn't any different than the old guy in the candy store back home at Destiny Islands. Except Kaoru wasn't old, of course.

Remembering his manners, Sora let go and gestured to Sena.

"Kaoru, this is Sena! He wants some new clothes." Sora pointed to his shirt. "And mine got kinda bloody. Oh! And is Hikaru okay?"

"H-hi," Sena stammered as he bowed politely and gave a half smile. He had stepped back earlier in order to let the two friends bond and was currently feeling very lost.
There seemed to have been a lot of people hurt or tired in this place
Sena couldn't help but wonder what happened.

He looked around the shop once more and fiddled with the strap of his satchel. It was a habbit he had recently begun to adopt when he got nervous.

"D-do you have any clothes that's easy to run in?" He questioned. He wasn't all that good with clothes and most of his clothes were merely clothes he chose because they were comfortable and easy to run in.

Laughter really was infectious, Kaoru recalled as he hugged Sora back. He'd thought about it initially, but was glad Sora had hugged him all the same. "It's nice to see you again, Sora, and in good health." He let go and ruffled Sora's hair. "Hikaru's... doing better. Another day or so and I think he'll be mostly back to normal."

Then, he looked over at Sora's new friend. "Sena, hm? I think we can find you guys something. Are you looking for any colors specifically, or just comfort? Just a shirt and pants, you think? Or a few layers?" Naturally Kaoru could always assume the boys would be... well, like boys and respond "No, yes, no" but he liked to check no matter what.
