Got that right. How about we go home and have sukiyaki or meat and potatoes or rice porridge. “Sounds good.” Leto said half heartily, not really paying attention to the others at all, as he was lost in his own thoughts. Which was really the best thing when someone is creaming at you but then he really didn’t care. He just wanted to drink the peaceful moment, for they were far and few for him besides he had a feeling that there would be few in the days to come.
“Sounds like a stroke of bad luck to mean, but these things happen.”

"Yeah, don't tell me you summoned the rain." Suishoku huffed and sniffled a little, feeling a bit chilled already as she picked up her school bag. Looking at Leto again, something just seemed off about him. Not exactly like before when he tunes out stuff around him but more like a not all there sort of feeling. Taking the towel from Kamui, she walked over to Leto and looked at him despite her soaked appearance.
"Do you want us to leave you here in the rain? You had time to walk around the beach sides collecting seashells."
She offered, wanting to know something of why or what brought him out to the water. Neither one of them were honest on what's going on but it was worth a shot to ask. That or get called out on it too. There's practically very little to know about what he does. Always off somewhere when not at school or the building and zero on the early bird scale.
"Just would be a shame to head back sick as well."

Getting up after the towel he felt on his face was lifted, Kamui positioned himself sitting up. Surprised, he did not expect that the Suishoku Yuubae lady was some sort of healer. Since his coming here and all, the most kinds of students that he had encountered were the "offense types" that he was eager to get into battle with to see what kinds of skills they had. However, seeing a change like a healer was nice. "FOOD?!" exclaimed the boy as he jumped up with an excitement and gleam in his eyes. ... Akarui was starting to feel the chill as the checked one more time to see if her clothes were still heavy with water. And luckily, it seemed that she had gotten enough water out of her clothes. Looking around again to see where she was, it was clear to her that it was connected to the other beach sides. Even though she had never been here before it was nostalgic. All her thought was then broken by the loud voice of Kamui shouting "food". It was then her attention when back to Leto Weiss...she couldn't help but keep thinking who this guy is. Despite saying his name like that and he calling her Ariel nevertheless. With a shrugs she looked up at the sky again. Suddenly, she recalled clearly who Leto Weiss was. "Mr. Day Dream Prince," as he was classified by the people she contacted with for information gathering. Looking around again, Akarui started to walk towards from where she had fallen from.

Do you want us to leave you here in the rain? You had time to walk around the beach sides collecting seashells. Leto was kicked back into reality by Hoki’s question.
“No, that alright I have no plans staying here longer then needed.” Leto let out a small sigh; he had come all the way out here to just get a bit of alone time. That and he was trying to escape his work ‘overlords’. It seemed that all he did either missions or work with the professor, free time was a luxury and it was one that he could ill afford especially with what was to come.
“or anywhere actually.” Leto mumbled under his breath, he wasn’t sure if Hoki had heard it or not, he hoped she didn’t for that may raise more questions than answers.

"Geez you seem stressed," Suishoku commented on Leto before rubbing her damp hair even with a few rain drops falling gradually around them. She wanted to head to the dorm but they're so far out and taking the train system is just embarrassing in their soaked clothes. Still want to eat. She thought, determined to no be heading home like this just yet. Looking back at the hotels, her eyes widened at an idea while Kamui came to the realization of food.
"Exactly it. We're in the hotel district. We'll just head right right over there, enjoy their indoor hot springs and get ourselves set and having a hot pot while out clothes dry up. How's that idea?"
She smiled, thinking that the general story of helping Kamui would surely be enough to use their services as long as they pay up for their meals. Looking at the guys to see if they agree on the idea, she looked confused at first till she saw Akarui started to wonder off.
"Aka-chan, where are you going? Wanna try the hotels for a bath and hot pot?"

"Exactly it. We're in the hotel district. We'll just head right right over there, enjoy their indoor hot springs and get ourselves set and having a hot pot while out clothes dry up. How's that idea?""WHAT WE ALL WAITING FOR? LET'S GO!" exclaimed Kamui happily. Now did this mean what he thought it meant? After going all that unexpected situation, he was going to get food and a hot spring bath?! Now, this was probably a dream. Just to make sure though, he pinched himself and oh yes, the pain was real. It was not a dream! After the days that he has been here, he was finally going to be able to get into a nice hot spring bath and some good food. Suffering from the lack of money his parents sent him - still being punished - he had not been able to get those expensive foods that he usually had and to not be able to get his hands on something like that, killed him. And today, seemed like it would be his best lucky day ever! ... Akarui had thought about heading back home due to fact that it could rain any second with the way the sky were looking. Sides, she was already wet as it is and it would not make it any better for her to even get more wet. Walking to where she had fallen from, Akarui stopped as she heard Suishoku Yuubae's voice. "Aka-chan, where are you going? Wanna try the hotels for a bath and hot pot?"Now that was very tempting indeed and she did not know what to do. Although, walking all the way back to the dorms now would not deem her any good. Furthermore, feeling like something had dripped on her head. She looked up to see that it was raining. Just wonderful, another day to end up with rain. However, in truth, she really liked the rain though because it calmed her. Following that was soon the sound of thunder which made it even worse. Coming back towards the three of them, Akarui made up her mind and responded, "Yes, I'm in."

That a strange turn of events. Never would Leto have figured he’d be heading to a hot spring when he first decided to come out here. “Sure why not.”
He has to admit that he was rather stressed and the hot springs would help him relax, if only a little. The only thing that worried him was present company, he really didn’t know this group every well and in some respects he really didn’t want to either. But if he bailed for such a weak reason the old would have kicked him and told him he needed to open up more and be friendlier. “Shall we be off?”

"Yes. Off we go!" Suishoku cheered before sneezing a little, some of the water droplets tickling her nose. "Ah, it's going to rain harder the more we just stand around." She laughs some, not at all thinking something like this would turn up in wandering this far out. Waving to everyone, she started to secure her bag at her side and started heading off to the hotel distract quickly as the rain started to increase its downpour.
--
Arriving at what seemed to be the nearest hotel they could find. it being a common thing for hotels to have great indoor baths, she looked around and headed to the receptionist. Carefully wiping her forehead of rain water, she smiled and explained their situation to a certain degree and extend. "Excuse me, could we have a stay just for a bath and dry our clothes? Our friend Kamui here was found drowning off shore before we pulled him in but it's a bit far off to ride the train back to our dorms all soaked."
The man behind the register looked at each of the students, taking not that all of them were indeed drenched along with their school uniforms being of the military academy's. Skeptical of how half of their clothes looked more roughed up, they said nothing of questioning the group's business. "We could provide some services till you're cleaned and ready to go. The baths are down the hall and you all can borrow a change of robes till your clothes are washed. Miss, could you sign a form in the matter of payment?"
"Sure," she smiled while looking back at everyone and carefully rolled up her sleeves, signing the brief forum and method of pay out of her school granted allowance. While Suishoku was filling out the forums, the man at the counter showed the students a map of the hotel premise of where the laundry and bathing areas were along with some first floor dining amenities they can go to under the restriction of not going to any of the upper levels, for being non-official hotel guests. When everything was said and done, the students were given leave to the baths and a change of blue and white robes to use and return later.

With that Akarui and Kamui made their way with the group to the near following hotel. Finally, founded one, they were glad to get out of the rain. Not only was it annoying enough when they hit the waters but to bring in the rain was just not cool. Although, Akarui did not really mind the rain but Kamui on the other hand, could not tolerate it. Since, he did get injured and falling into the salt sea was not quite a combination he would had been expecting. Until, it was thanks to Suishoku that he was saved from his injury.
"You, white haired guy, name?" said Kamui as got into the male section of the hot spring bath.
Hitting into female section, Akarui got in herself after changing. It was such a refreshing feeling that she had not experience in awhile and it was such a bliss. However, feeling relaxed now, Akarui pondered at Suishoku.
"Suishoku, you did not had to pay the whole price."

So there sat Leto in a hot spring bath, not exactly the place he wanted to be but then again it was one of those in the moment type of things. Besides its want like he had hated the idea in the first place, but he was the kind of person that could never truly relax with other people around.
You, white haired guy, name? “Leto Weiss.”
And that other person had just arrived. A fellow student and descendent at the academy, and to Leto’s knowledge they hadn’t met before. It was moments like these that he wished Melina was around, since she was the one had studied up on all the active decedents at the academy, A bonus from working the professor. Leto shuttered at the thought if they know that he had gone to some hot spring. They would grill him to death with all the questions and what not.

"It's mostly from my school allowance. That's all spent on shipping and meals." Suishoku answered with little worry in her voice while closing the door behind her of the changing room. The second year didn't had the mind of it being a humble gesture toward her fellow classmates, that was still up for debate on Kamui while Akarui is secured as a friend with all their frequent run-ins and Leto; well he isn't dangerous and has been corroprotive along with a fellow tenant. Saving them during that one night is also bonus points as hard as that event is to forget. Back to some normal lifestyles, the whole bath and meal thing being her idea so it seemed logical to vouch some money. Thank god the hotel didn't charge them full price.
"I'll just cook and pack a lunch from home if it'll only would cost me my meal tickets at the cafeteria." Smiling in some reassurance to Akarui, she walked past her and whistled at the nice spread of the hot spring before them. Simple square walls and some artful stacks of stone here and there with a painted murals but other than that, all nicely done to relax and enjoy. Overhead hung glass panels holding what may have been a wonderful view of sky if not for the bad weather which drove them to this shelter in the first place. Hopefully it would come to pass.
Feeling a cold chill come up her spine, even with the warm steam around them, Suishoku shivered and quickly climbed into the bath in hear of getting a cold. Dunking herself under the water for a few seconds and coming up for large gasp of air in the envolping warmth of the bath. "Oh yeah! No more of this cold and ocean water! Mmm...even the bath water has a nice smell to it, Aka-chan" Resting back, soaking with the water up to her neck, Suishoku too a deep calming breath and tilted her head back a little at Akarui till she too finally entered the bath. "Ne, Aka-chan. I thought students weren't allowed near the port docks if not for the ranged classes?" Already diving into questions, it still struck her odd that she and Kamui were found in a strange predicament. Made her even wonder how long Kamui was out floating around before dragging him to shore.

“Leto Weiss.” answered the guy. "Year?" questioned Kamui again. Dipping his whole self into the hot spring, Kamui sprung back up to hear Leto's response. Sides, this dude was one of the students that he had not met yet and wanted to just know a bit more. In any case, Leto Weiss was so mysterious it was like Kamui just needed information about him. Or it was more like, whatever that Leto was giving off, his presence felt very strong despite his quiet demeanor. ... "Ne, Aka-chan. I thought students weren't allowed near the port docks if not for the ranged classes?Thinking about it, Akarui remembered as Suishoku's statement gave her a bump in the head. And actually, Kamui was there in the first place because he was range and all. However, to Akarui, for her to be there...that was something that she was doing upon herself. Which was sneaking around to find some information about stuff that has been occurring. Now though...how to answer Suishoku correctly. "That is true but most do not follow the rules anyway... Sides, Kamui was around here since his ranged but I guess whatever happened, he fell in..."

“First.” Did the questions have meaning, was he leading to something or just trying to make idle chatter. Either way he wasn't very fond of it, it was like someone unable to sleep because they kept getting poked. Now it wasn't like he disliked the thought of conversation just at the moment a bit of peace would have been nice.
“We done with the questions?”

"Huh...so you and Kamui were around there and he got cut up and somehow you feel in the water too. Wonder why he was farther out," Suishoku openly wondered and sank into the water, enjoying the warmth a bit longer. Looking at the mural in front of them, an artistic rendition of the ocean sea and its waves, she sat up a little for the water to be back at neck level.
"Is it me or is Kamui more behaved than before? I thought he was all for the fight and stuff or make your building the aftermath of a hurricane." This was also another thing Suishoku found to be odd and Aka-chan was the only person she could ask for some sort of an answer. Kamui did attack and nearly blew up a civilian area then got some sort of punishment from it all. That was the last and highlighting impression of the guy of him being a terrorist bomber or something to go shooting bomb attached arrows. Hell, with baths built close and separated by a wall, it was already a surprise there wasn't any violent shouting or something from the guy section.
Listening for her friend's answer about Kamui, she then smiled and thought to change the topic once having her answers. Having time to stare out at the ocean and patching her insecurities can't be solved so easily in a few hours when there is still one more year of the academy left and beyond. Right now is, in the least, keeping her word on that hot pot dinner."Let's change up and grab the guys before they wander off on us."

“We done with the questions?”"You're no fun," stated Kamui as he gave the pouted face. He was trying to refrain himself but if that is the attitude he was going to receive, especially from a guy he barely knows - well, Kamui barely remembers people's names, then so be it. If things are not going to take any progress he was going to make things work himself then. Sides, by just staying in this situation was just going to make things more awkward. While getting up, Kamui splashed at Leto and walked over to the bamboo fence, that was the boundary between the male and female hot springs. Reaching up somehow, he got his head over said, "LADIES, LET'S GET SOMETHING TO EAT!... "Is it me or is Kamui more behaved than before? I thought he was all for the fight and stuff or make your building the aftermath of a hurricane." Now thinking about Akarui has been wondering about that too. Since, lately, the kid had been given a lot of boundaries by the school and it actually limited to what he was able to do. Even more so, it made it easier to contain the kid when in the dorms though. Despite the fact that, he even really takes any of the punishments into considerations. "Ah, I guess it is because his parents also got called up and they got extremely unhappy with him. As his allowance had lessen to the point the point where he only can get school meals or just some cheap bento and other stuff to eat and drank. So if he wanted to buy other materials that he wanted, not school related, then he would not be able to... I think for now, he is just trying to play it safe... And sure, let's change and -"So said Akarui until her sentence was broken off by Kamui who was somehow able to get his head and arms over the bamboo fence. What on earth was he thinking?! If it wasn't just Suishoku and her that was in the female hot spring section then for sure, Kamui would have gotten more tabs on himself. Even the school would probably be even more furious when they gotten something along the line of Bugei Academy's student freshman, Kamui Sakamoto, peered into the female hot spring baths and caused a riot for being a peeping tom.
