Masuto took the Bison plushie slowly and with a face of wonderment. At soon as he had a hold of the plush he felt just how soft a Sky Bison's fur was. He even help it up to his face to feel it's softness which got out a small laugh from Aki. He smiled and nodded to Zenji. "You shouldn't have. You didn't have to get me anything, but thank you." They had only met two days before, and Masuto only wanted her to be there to enjoy the party and have a safe place to stay for the time being, Aki had only known her since she had walked though the door, and when she saw that her own little brother was swooning over the plush like a child, she thought that the two of them must have been friends for quite a while despite what Zenji had said just after.

Upstairs, Masuto's and Aki's mother looked out the window and out to the streets below her. She had an amount of spiritual energy that was larger than her daughter's, and could feel that today was very unlike the day before. She never usually had this sense, but when it did appear she knew that somewhere, something would happen and affect everyone in the world.
