You led Chishiya up the stairs into your apartment, you weren't particularly bothered by the stairs but after the running in the game, you were exhausted however Chishiya showed no sign of being tired.

You waited for him at your door as you held it open for him, he walked in past you stopping at the large windows by your bed, you quickly turned on the flashlight you had recollected from the stairs and searched around for your bag, after grabbing some essentials, toiletries, clothes, food, water, medicine you were ready to go. You turned to Chishiya and waved to get his attention.

"What" he sighed.

"I'm ready" you nodded.

Chishiya opens the door and walks out you follow him from behind pausing for a brief moment to look around your apartment before remembering you forgot the most special thing, your sister's necklace, you rush back to the jewellery box in your closet and grab it before rushing to find Chishiya.

"What took you so long" he murmurs as you step out of the stairwell.

Holding up the necklace you reply "I had to grab something special to me".

A smirk appears on his face as you begin to walk.

" what's that for" you question referring to his smirk.

He draws a breath before turning his head to you "It's for you or more so because of you. You're in a place where people die so we can live and you still find something "special" enough to waste time to bring? If you ask me it's pathetic".

He turns his head back to face the ground, the smirk he had dropped and you began to wonder what made him so careless.

"It's a good thing I wasn't asking you. Where Are we going" you say angered by his idiotic response?

"To the beach" he murmured.

You chuckle causing him to look in your direction his eyebrows raise slightly if you weren't watching him you wouldn't have noticed.

You slowed your laughter as you explained " You think I'm pathetic for wanting to keep something special to me on my person? Yet you are taking me to the freakin' beach."

He turns his head whilst side-eyeing you. "It's not a beach, it's the place they call the beach. It's better than being out here and if you are too stupid to ruin things it will be our way out or at least mine."

That shameful feeling of childlike hope built up around you and you dared to ask. "How do we get out"

He chuckled, it was dark, low and quiet. "I want to see what you're worth before I tell you anything. After all, you're probably worth nothing to me. The only reason I'm taking you is that you're the first person with a somewhat working brain."

There was no emotion in his voice which made you even angrier. You decided to walk in silence not wanting to have him disrespect you any more and after a while, you began to realise how beautiful Tokyo is when it's empty.

You began to think about the past 24 hours and what had happened to try to piece together exactly how you got here, you remember hearing fireworks it was uncommon but not unheard of, and you brushed it off because what good would it do? You knew that you didn't have the answers. But he might.

You turned to Chishiya and asked, "How much further?"

He shook his head and pointed in front of him, you peered up and in a far distance, you noticed lights and could hear the sound of music echoing through the city.

Chishiya didn't talk much and didn't attempt to start a conversation, his answers weren't real answers so once again you began silently thinking, thinking about him. Why was he like this? What made him this way? Was he like this before he came here? Had he always been here...
