Goku had finally decided he wanted to explore this place. He had been at Hakkai's place for nearly a week and while he found out a lot of neat things (and other bad things...), he never got a chance to actually explore.

And so, here he was at the marketplace. A box of meat buns were in his arms and Goku happily munched on them. A series of applauds and clapping caught his attention and Goku found himself drawn to the area.

What he saw was super special awesome! That dressed like a clown was doing a lot of cool tricks and Goku couldn't help but push his way to the front to get a better look. He took another bite of his delicious meat bun and looked on with pure wide-eyed enjoyment.

"This is awesome..." He mumbled around his food.

The narrow eyes slid to rest on Goku, nearly as soon as the boy appeared. There was something about him... The stolen, power-granting sphere, nestled safely in a hidden pocket, allowed him to use enough of his Nen to know that much. It was definitely an abnormal amount of power, especially from one so young.

But Hisoka gave no sign of his interest. He freed a bird from one man's hat, returned a pocket watch to his wife ("I didn't even know it was gone!" she'd exclaimed, and Hisoka only smiled), and only then did he turn his attention to Goku.

Pointed shoes brought him to stand in front of the boy, and that smile played about his painted face.

"It looks," he said, a light and playful tone coloring his words, "As though you have quite a meal there."

"Huh?" Goku blinked owlishly for a second before grinning broadly. "Oh, yeah! I found this cart that was sellin' 'em for a good price! They're really good!"

His hand disappeared into the bag, seemingly digging around before he pulled out a fresh, warm meat bun and held it to the man with the painted face. "Want one?"

A crowd in the marketplace was hardly a special thing. The were countless customers huddled around stands, attempting to strike a bargain or make a steal. Children unattended by parents bolted through the array of shoppers and curious newcomers, giggling and laughing as darted in and out of view.

Hardly special.

But there was one crowd in particular that caught his interest today. Not only was there no booth to huddle around, but there were exclamations of disbelief and cheerful utterances. Curious and intrigued, Omi moved closer and muttered several "excuse me"s as he pushed politely through the crowd.

"Uaaah~ Magic tricks?!" he exclaimed as he poked his head out from between some shoulders, a wide grin plastered on his face.

Jade had been walking through the marketplace aimlessly, it helped, somehow, to keep on moving while he tried to puzzle through recent events. His feet moved and his mind followed, crossing the miles and the ideas and building theories while wearing down his shoes.

He had stuffed his hands in his pockets, and was trying to understand a critical part of Cloud's exposé on his world, when he was jolted to the present by a familiar face... one he had seen in the journals.

Making his way towards the strange entertainer, a decidedly wolfish smile on his features, the Colonel slipped a hand out of his pocket to push his glasses back up his nose.

"My, my", he called towards Hisoka, "Fancy meeting you here."
