Description: Spirit takes Stein out to a mission, because damn, his partner needs it.
Spirit had been waiting for a mission like this to come since the other day, and now that it had, he wasn't going to let it go! So he promptly made a call to Stein to get his stitched butt into the Death Room, we're going on a mission!
This wasn't a particularly difficult mission, but it would have been a risky one to take for the students that they had available. A few kishin eggs had rampaged an aquarium in Florida, eating some of the personnel before authorities could evacuate everyone safely. There were also worries about the safety of the various fish and mammals and other things in the place, although Spirit was pretty sure the kishin eggs wouldn't want to... eat those. The whales?
Anyway! So there he was, waiting at the mirror to the Florida base, excited and nervous at the same time. Spirit was confident that he could protect Stein from the Madness and everything, but of course, it was always hard to risk Stein's sanity like this for simple missions.
Better than Stein's rising resentment for the guests, he thought to himself. Spirit couldn't resonate that out of Stein.
