Deep into an actually-quite-simple-but-no-one-realises-it maze...
"Let's go, darling'!" Aki cheered, grabbing Echo's hand.
"Touch me, and I kill you," Echo hissed, snapping her hand away instantly.
"Touch her, and she kills you," the twins repeated with smiles.
Aki shivered back.
"Of all the morons I could have got stuck with, why the hell did it have to be you guys?!" she moaned.
"Who, me?" The three of them asked in the same tone.
"This is gonna be a pain..." she muttered with a roll of her eyes.
...
"Hey guys, you got any string?" Luna asked.
"I don't tend to carry string with me, nuuuu... I do have a sewing hit!" Hiro replied, getting out a small leather wallet with needed and pins in.
"So you have tread???" Luna asked excitedly.
"Nuuu, I used the last piece to resew a button!" Hiro informed her.
"Why would we need string?" Galaxy muttered, arms crossed boredly.
"Well, if we tie something to this rock, then we won't get lost. We can just follow the string back," Luna explained, bending down and picking up a large stone from the sandy ground.
"Genius! Great idea! Glad I thought of it!" Hiro cheered.
"Good thinking, Luna," Galaxy said as she reached in her skirt and pulled out her PANTS??!!!!
"AGHHH!!! TOO. MUCH!!!!" Hiro panicked, immediately stumbling back, crashing to the floor with a nosebleed.
"Why the heck did you do that?!!!!" Luna yelled in shock!!
"It's the only thing we have. Unless you've got a thong too?" Galaxy wondered with a devious grin.
"No!!!" Luna squealed, turning away her hips as if protecting herself.
"Well then," Galaxy returned.
"I thought thongs were flip flops..." Hiro whimpered from the floor, holding his nose.
Galaxy and Luna both looked at Hiro awkwardly.....
Meanwhile...
"So you're worried about Luna, right?" Yurio asked as he walked with Yukine.
"Of course..." Yukine mumbled back, gaze resting on the floor as they walked.
"... me too..." Yurio agreed awkwardly.
...
"Erm... so... I was wondering... while we're on the subject, err... How exactly... do you feel about Luna? It's just, I don't think I quite understand how this whole grace thing works," Yurio mumbled, cheeks turning red.
"The fact she's my grace has nothing to do with it!" Yukine grunted.
"Uh...." he didn't mean to be quite so aggressive...
"I mean, it does a little, I suppose... but... that's not why..." he muttered with a slight stutter of embarrassment from overreacting.
"Why... you like her?" Yurio hesitated to confirm.
"Tst. So you're in on it, too?" Yukine grumbled.
"Huh?" Yurio muttered in confusion.
Yukine sighed.
"I don't see why everyone's focusing on how I feel... it's you that should be confessing," Yukine told him.
"Ugh! C-confessing?!" Yurio panicked with a blush.
