[That high-pitched, girly shriek comes from a very shocked Umi. She's standing on some dingy Underground nook, garbed in her full fencing gear and looking rather lost and aggravated.]

WHERE THE HECK DID THE STADIUM GO?!? I mean-!!

[soulofocean]

That's-!

...Clef??

[soulofocean]

Aw, right! How come--- I forgot? You were right here with us...

[conductyourself]

Where?

[soulofocean]

This place! It's... "the City", right? Somehow it all seems like... blurry.

[conductyourself]

Ah- yes.

You must have been gone for a while. Where are you? Underground?

[soulofocean]

Yeah! I don't exactly know how long, but... yeah. Jeez. This place always becomes a blank when I go back...

[soulofocean]

Underground. That rings a bell! It's what this shady joint with the crawly monsters is called, right?

[conductyourself]

It's been a few weeks, here.

... Hikaru went home while you were gone.

[conductyourself]

Yes. ... Hold on, I'm going to come get you.

[soulofocean]

...No. Just-! Mamoru said the same thing. About coming to get me. And Hikaru! But-!

No, it just can't turn out like that...

[conductyourself]

Turn out like what? She went home.

Fuu is here, though.

[soulofocean]

That's what Mamoru just told me. Guess I had trouble believing it.

It's how it always turns out, right? One goes home, the other arrives just afterward...?

[conductyourself]

It does seem that way, I suppose. I'm not so certain that everything happens for a reason, though.

[soulofocean]

I guess it's better, this way. Even if she wanted to Of course that doesn't mean I won't miss her like crazy.

Was it long after I left that she...?

[conductyourself]

Maybe a week or so.

... I thought you were both gone for good.
