"We're going to the human world!" Nami announced.
"Now?" Sakuya quirked an eyebrow.
"Yeah! I made a promise!" Nami grinned, "You're free, right?"
"Yes, I am." Sakuya affirmed.
"Cool! Then we can go!" Nami clapped her hands with excitement, "Ooh! Wait!"
Nami soon gave a large bag to Sakuya, "Open it."
Sakuya soon took the bag and looked inside it and pulled out a button-up shirt, along with a flat cap, "What is this?"
"Well, I thought because you don't being 'King Sakuya, the Shining Star', I got you these so you could be 'Sakuya, the regular human' for a day."
Soon, a wide smile crawled onto Sakuya's face.
"Nami, you're the best!" Sakuya wrapped his arms around Nami.
Nami chuckled, "Alright, big guy. Now, put it on, I want to see how it looks."
"Okay." Sakuya nodded.
Sakuya ran into his room and got dressed while Nami waited outside.
"Nami!" Sakuya yelled out, "Is this how you wear it?"
Sakuya soon went out of his room, wearing the black pants, flat cap, but his button-up shirt was unbuttoned, revealing his bare chest.
"Because... this doesn't look right but I don't know how else to wear it." Sakuya sheepishly grinned.
"Yeah, that's not right." Nami shook her head and went up to Sakuya and started buttoning up his shirt, "There you go."
Nami also soon stared at Sakuya, looking at him without any wings or pointy elf ears.
"Wow... you look... really human. It's just..." Nami brushed her hand through her hair while blushing, "How do you do it?"
"Oh... It's hard to explain." Sakuya stated, "We just... I just think of it to happen and it just does. It's a bit instinctive, I suppose."
"I see." Nami nodded, "And uh, one more thing."
Nami took out her camera from her bag, "Smile!"
Sakuya grinned into the camera and a snap erupted from the camera. A little slip of paper came out and Nami grabbed it.
Nami looked at it and exclaimed, "Perfect!"
She soon put the photo and camera into her leather bag.
"Come on! Let's go, now!" Nami did a little hop.
"Alright." Sakuya nodded.
The two of them walked down to the Cave of Time and they jumped through the portal. The two of them walked through the hills that led to Kyoto.
"You know, it's a bit weird to walk like this." Sakuya commented, "I usually just fly to the town because it's convenient. But even if I wanted to, I can't because I'd wreck the clothes."
"Now you know what it's like for others." Nami joked, "Use those legs of yours! Maybe there'll be a time where you can't use your wings!"
"Perhaps." Sakuya nodded.
"And, uh, before we make it to Kyoto. I should probably give you some instructions about human etiquette and such so no one suspects anything." Nami explained.
"Oh, of course, of course." Sakuya agreed.
"Now, the first thing you should know..."
As Nami talked about how to act, the two eventually made it to Kyoto. By the end of it, Sakuya was mildly tired with sore legs while Nami was completely fine.
