Location: Residential DistrictJanuary 15th. Main shopping District. Yu and Blossom [/b] It was another nice day during the January month. The sky was bright, there was a light dusting of snow on the ground. And the temperature was sweat-shirt weather. No more bulky coats today! Yu was walking down the main street while eating a lollypop that he had bought from the store he normally visits during the week days. Yep, he was good pals with a race car collector who sold a bunch of parts, little trinkets, and some candy for the kids who came to the store with their parents. And knowing this kid for years, it was like they were unrelated brothers. He stopped by the train station and watched as people flooded the area. It was quite exciting to see this. People always seemed to be in a hurry to go places. Yu on the other hand was a casual walker. Taking his time to get to places. But when it came to relay races or kart racing against his friends and brother, he got competitive. He wanted to be the number one winner! "One of these days I'll ride that train and see where it goes to." He snickered as he decided to continue to walk casually.

If people discovered that this young girl was wondering out here, then they would have thrown a huge fit. Like Warren. Or Ashe. Maybe Grey. Or some of the other Hunters. Either way, Blossom had finally managed to do what Pierre had blocked her from doing the last time she had gone to explore the trains - she had slipped on and hid there to go to the city! What an exciting adventure!
Once she had gotten off of the train, several adults had stared at her oddly, wondering why such a young child was unaccompanied, but the girl dodged them all and managed to somehow get herself lost! So many adults... why weren't there any kids around?
"Where to first~?" She hummed to herself as she skipped along, turning her head to look around. Maybe she should have been watching where she was going, because she nearly bumped into another boy with a lollypop! And a delicious looking lollipop at that. "Oops! Hi!"

The buildings were quiet amazing. They loomed over the human race like massive giants watching out for them. As for Yu, he wasn't paying much attention himself, or else he would have noticed little miss Blossom heading towards him. Once they have collided to one another, his lolly went flying and landed on the ground.
"S-Sorry! I uh didn't pay attention!" He apologized to her. He didn't seem to mind about the lollypop flying. "Err-you okay?" He fixed his hat, trying to make himself look cooler with it! He's had this hat for years, so it meant a lot to him.

Blossom had never seen such shiny and pretty buildings in her life! Nor such big ones, either. And all of the grass and plants didn't seem very natural. Where were the waterfalls? How rich were the people that lived here to have such shiny, shiny buildings?
Of course, all of these thoughts came to a crashing halt as she bumped into a boy several years older than her and nearly bounced off of him. No! The lolly went flying!
"I'm sorry!" She apologized quickly even as he did so to her. "I'm fine! But your lollypop fell to the ground!"
So much for the five-second rule? Though Blossom had to agree, that the hat looked kinda nifty. Maybe she should find a hat somewhere.

"It's okay! I just was in a daze. Haha!" He looked to the lolly that landed on the ground. Five second rule or not, he wasn't going to eat the lolly. No one knows where that floor has been! But he did pick it up just so he could throw it away and not leave a mess on the ground.
"It's okay. I get a lot of these. I probably shouldn't be eating these so much." He laughed at it. He's not the least bit upset over the idea of the loss of his lolly. Yu was able to talk to someone, a little younger than him, but she was still someone.
Yu walked over to a trashcan and dropped the lolly inside of it. He walked back over to her. "Hey, are you new here? You look a bit lost." He was willing to help if she needed it.

"Aw, really? But they're so good! What flavor was it?"
Well, no five-second rule here! Blossom probably wouldn't have cared, though she didn't know where the ground had been under various people's feet. And Blossom did have the Zenny to buy candy! Of course, it was her entire stock of 20 Zenny at the moment, but it was still Zenny, wasn't it?!
Blossom trailed after Yu as he walked over to the trashcan. This person was interesting, and he wasn't so old! Plus he wasn't threatening her with his cooties, which probably meant that he didn't have them! Maybe it was something that boys picked up in the Hunter's Camp? She didn't know at all!
"Um... a bit! I've never been here before! I was in the train for such a long time, and then when it stopped, it was here!"

"It was Grape. I love the grape flavoring. I shouldn't be eating these so much. Dad said that I am going to make my teeth all funky." He laughed. Yu is a pretty light hearted kid. He survived the past wars and made it to fourteen years old! Huzzah!
He dumped the lolly into the trash and looked to her when she responded to him. So she was new here. Never been to the city before. He wondered where she was from though. He tapped his chin. "I've only been outside of the city once, and I was very young. I think Dad said I was probably about two years old, when we went out of the city to visit grams. But I haven't seen her since then. Dunno why though." He shrugged. It wasn't like the woman died. They just stopped visiting. Then he wondered if it was because of those MegaMen people or Mavericks? He wasn't sure which one was the good guy and which one was the bad.
"Trains look soooo cool on the outside. How are they on the inside? Are they all comfy like they say in the movies? Or super cool like in stories?" He really didn't know! But he wanted to know her opinion about them.

Oooh, grape! That was a really good flavor, though it wasn't her favorite. She made a face as Yu said that his dad didn't let him eat them all the time. Her daddy had always told her that too, but why? Was Yu right, that it made the teeth all funky and weird and gross like she had seen on some people?
"My favorite is cherry, though grape is really good too! Is it really true, that your teeth get gross when you eat too many of those? Daddy always said that to me when I ask him to buy me one."
Yep, young child that had never been in Innerpeace before. The entire world was a game to her right now! She smiled up at him, not suspecting anything. Yu seemed to be a really nice person, after all. Maybe they could be friends! She'd like to have a friend from the city!
"Ooh, I wasn't even born then! You look a lot bigger than seven." He didn't know what was outside the city? It was very different. And messy. Especially compared to such a clean and shiny city like this one that she had found herself in. She had no idea that people would probably fret about her as the topic turned to the trains.
"They're really cool on the inside, too! Lots of lights and movement and they're so big! The seats are really comfy too, and I like to sit on them!"

"I think they do." He shrugged. But Yu's teeth were like titanium! Never once had he gotten a cavity! And this boy eats sweets and drinks cola all the time! Both are entities of bad teeth! Lucky boy! "I mean, I haven't gotten bad teeth yet. And mine look white, like they're supposed to." He shrugged.
He tapped his chin when she pointed that out. He shrugged. "I don't remember. But nope. I'm not seven! Haha!" He rubbed his nose and snickered at her. He'd enjoy having another friend! And Blossom seemed pretty cool, herself! So why shouldn't he try to befriend her? "I'm 14!" He boasted. 14 was a cool number! Although his all-time favorite number was and always will be, 13. Many considered it lucky, but his favorite race car driver of all time had the number 13 written on the side of his car. And being an multi-time champ, 13 was not an unlucky number.
"That's so awesome!!! Maybe one of these days I can go on a train ride and see the world!" He flailed a little bit, showing his enthusiasm. He really loved the idea of traveling. "When I become of age, I want to travel all around the world. I want to see places I have never seen in text books! I want to also become a world-known racer, like my all-time super hero!" He fist pumped.
"Dad says I'm a bit of a dreamer. But hey, dreamers can think up cool stuff and do stuff! So…I don't mind being one!"

"And neither have I!" Granted, candy was a bit of a rare commodity out in the Outlands, but Blossom didn't know that was how it was compared to innerpeace. Titanium teeth, whoo! Could he puncture through walls with his teeth and be one of the Super Yu Brothers?
"I thought so! You looked too big to be seven!" And yet, 14 was still young enough to have fun. She let out a 'oooooh!' as Yu boasted that he was 14 years old. That was so cool! He wasn't that much younger than Ashe or Grey, but he was also a cool person too!
"We can go on the train and then I can show you what it looks like outside! There's a lot of sand, but there's also waterfalls and cliffs and ice and lots of cool things! Though nothing as shiny as these buildings." Traveling with a friend? That sounded fun! Too bad Yu wasn't a Hunter, she would've asked him to be her Hunting partner when they were older!
"Oh, whose your super hero?! I have superheroes too!" Practically every Hunter was a hero to her, but Ashe and Grey were at the top of the list at the moment. "I dream too! I dream that I'm going to be a great Hunter and find lots of cool things and see lots of cool places!"

Adventure partners?! That would be so much fun to have! The epic adventures this duo would go through would be so much fun! They would get to see all sorts of new things! He nodded a couple of times as he thought of the various adventures they could have. "Yeah! That would be awesome. We should do that sometime! And that's okay! I am sure there are other areas out there that don't have a lot of buildings like here."
"I have a few super heroes, actually. But one I really like a lot is my all time race car hero!" He snickered, yep! That guy was certainly his biggest hero! Yu was his biggest fan too! "Oh! A hunter? I heard they get to go on a lot of adventures! I bet some of the stuff they get to see and do is awesome." He tried imagining himself as a hunter, but it didn't look too well. He thought that he'd mess up.

Yes, these two would probably have some of the most amazing adventures, together! And maybe in another lifetime, they had! But alas, Yu was a 14-year-old civilian and Blossom was a six-year-old Hunter, so maybe in another few years they could have epic adventures!
"I'll bet there are! And then there are a lot of cool buildings that no one goes to that might have something really cool in them, too. I wanna go on an adventure!" Oooh, racecars? Is that what they used in bike-racing? If so, then he had some really cool superheroes! Blossom was definitely impressed with that.
"Uh huh, they do! Daddy and all the others get to go on really cool adventures! But everyone says I'm too little to go with them!" But that hadn't stopped her from getting on a train and going on an adventure herself!

"That would be so awesome!" He cheered when she said that buildings that were pretty much abandoned may have something inside them. Yu never once thought about doing stuff like that. But now that he thought about it, it sounded really awesome! Maybe he could do that along with racing? Who knows?! This boy is now full of different adventure-ideas! He doesn't know what to do with them! "Me too!" He jumped with joy about going on an adventure.
"Aw I hate that when adults say that. It's annoying, isn't it? Dad tells me a lot of times that I cannot do things because I'm too young. Well, someday, I am going to do whatever I want and no one can stop me!" Of course, he isn't planning on being a well known criminal or something. He's too innocent minded for that! "Mom told me that I have too much adventure in my nature and that I may get into a lot of trouble in the future." He sulked a little bit.
"I don't think being too curious is bad, is it? I just want to see stuff outside of the city." He huffed and placed his hands at his hips.

"Yeah! We'll probably find all sorts of things if we go look at them!"
Buildings that were abandoned probably had a lot of things in them that were cool. Ashe and Grey had gotten to visit a lot of abandoned buildings, she had heard. Why couldn't they take her along with them one day? Or even just out of the camp? Sure, she was completely lost right now, but it was fun! She was having an adventure!
"Uh huh, it's so annoying. I just want to go on one Hunt with them and have an adventure like I hear everyone talking about!" Sure, she wasn't the only kid at Hunters' Camp that didn't get to go, but that didn't mean she still didn't want to!
"I think my daddy said that once, too. And I'm going to be one of the best Hunters ever once I can do everything! I can find all sorts of cool treasures and beat up the bad Mavericks!"
She bounced a bit as he said there was nothing wrong with being curious. How could there possibly be anything wrong with being overly curious?! Of course, curiosity killed the cat, but that saying potentially didn't exist anymore.
"If you come to Hunters' Camp some day, I'll show you around! And we can look around outside too!"

"Aw man! That's so cool! mom wasn't ever supportive over my idea of being a racer. Dad always did though. He was always 'Y'know what son? Y'gonn be a good race car driver. And y'know what? I'ma gonna be behind ya the whole dern way!" He laughed. His dad had a real thick accent, one of which Yu wasn't sure of. But whatever it was, people always found it to be a riot. He was really close to his dad and not so much his mom. But all was fine and dandy, he was living with his dad now.
"Man, that would be awesome if I can see a Hunters Camp. I don't even know what one looks like. I keep thinking about it being a bunch of tents in the forest, like typical camping. But I know that's not true." He laughed, trying to get her to laugh too. "But that would be cool. I'd love to see a Hunter's camp--as long as mom doesn't know I've been there."
Then he tapped his chin. "What do Hunters do anyways? Like when they talk about their adventure."
