You were amazed by the sight of the building and the people. There were teenagers up to old people within their 60s wearing shorts, bikinis, or at least showing a huge part of their bodies. You were surprised in many ways.
"Welcome to the Beach," Kuina introduces you.
"Wow," you comment.
"C'mon, let's go meet the leader," the hoodie guy says.
"Well, you two go on ahead. I'm gonna go catch some food. I'm hungry as fuck," Kuina says, starting to leave, "See ya' later!"
You wave back to Kuina as she starts to walk somewhere else.
"Let's go," he says.
Walking around, you were so confused. The hotel was so huge that you might've gotten lost in the world.
"I'm impressed how you know your way already. It's only been about a few weeks since we met," you say, "You're a lot of interesting surprises."
"I know," he shortly responds.
As for the hoodie guy, he seemed to feel very calm and collected, but truly, he was trying to compose himself. For the first time in a long time, he finally had the courage to come up to you.
"While we're going to the leader's room, there are rules to staying here," he begins, "One, you must wear a swimsuit, so everybody can see that you don't have any weapons on you. Two, you can go and do anything around here, as long as you don't kill anyone. If you break these rules, then you'll definitely die here, but it shouldn't be too hard since they don't even seem like rules."
"Can I wear something over the swimsuits? Like joggers or a shirt?" you ask.
"Nope," he says, looking at you, "As uncomfortable as it may seem, you'll have to get used to it. It's best to stay around with me for the first few weeks if you don't like to stay around.
"Oh, and I also recommend about not to talk to anyone. It may seem that everyone here is to have fun and get out of the world, but they can quickly deceive you," he says, turning around to look at you.
You quickly shiver at his stare and nod.
"Got it!" you squeak.
He makes a tiny laugh at your pathetic response before continuing to walk.

The hoodie guy led you in Kuina's room where you were going to stay. You got your bracelet right after the meeting. At least it'll bring your special bracelet some company.
"Here's some clothes for you after you're done taking a shower," he says, giving you the new clothes, "I'll wait out here."
"No, please, come in," you say, taking the clothes, "I don't want you to stand there the whole time. Thank you so much again."
