(Name) and Raisa were together at the table, trying to finish the meal they had.

Some laughs kept dragging their attention towards another table. The curiosity got the best of them and when they looked they recognized one of the figures: Sylvia Fox.

She sat at the table with another person, that her classmate recognized from the table at lunch: Leo.

"Young love..." Commented Raisa.

"What are you talking about?... You're young as well."

Raisa's heart was broken by the words her granddaughter said... But she knew she couldn't allow herself to tell... Not now.

If (Name) was somewhat like Raisa... Well she didn't want to see her granddaughter do that.

A call broke up their starring at the couple. It was Polnareff.

"Yes, babe?"

"Raisa... Something bad happened."

"What?"

"Someone broke in and stole the arrow. Nothing else is touched... Just that."

"Look for the cameras."

"I did. The feed shows a black shadow... I don't know what that is. Could be a stand..."

"Look. I'm with (Name) and we are choosing her dress. Take care of that yourself. I cannot protect me. I don't have a stand and Hamon isn't enough."

They closed the phone call after many "I love you/I love you more!" arguments.

"Do you know Hamon? I only read about it once but I thought it didn't exist anymore."

"I was trained... I have Romanian descendance... There were many bad creatures one had to fight... And my mother taught me."

"Huh..." Replied the younger one.

.•°•~~~~~Meanwhile~~~~~•°•.

"So yeah... That's basically my story. Boring backstory, but a bright future of becoming a policeman in my father's natal country." Said a voice, then he took a bite out of a French fry

"You tell me! I can't see my head because of all the calculations I do to become a good informatician."  Replied Sylvia, looking at the man in front of her. "Well. We're turning this date into an «I need help to find the best dress/suit for my date for prom» so why not talk about our past as well?"

They chuckled. Leo looked at her and simply smiled. "What? Do I have something on my face?"

"Yes." He said. He went ahead and kissed her cheek. Her hair was indistinguishable from her cheeks' shade as they were flustered with emotions.

"Shall we look for the dress?" He asked as she started gathering the throwable package. "Only if you let me pick your suit!"

"The first one we saw before the lunch was beautiful... But it's too long for you to be honest. Plus the stars don't compliment your eyes, because you're already one." He said.

"AH COME ON STOP LAUGHING ABOUT MY HEIGHT!"

"I COMPLIMENTED YOU AND ALL YOU HEARD WAS THE HEIGHT REFERENCE?"

They took a deep breath and laughed at their stupidity.

The teens wandered the mall and when her hope was all lost, a small medieval shop was next, but from what it looked seemed like a d&d games shop.

"Wanna look?"

Curiosity took the best of Sylvia and she agreed to join the fooling around and went inside with Leo. In front of them, a beautiful roleplay dress appeared.

"I love it." Said Sylvia. She didn't even had to try it on, as she noticed it was her size.

.•°•~~~~~Meanwhile~~~~~•°•.

In another shop, some meters away, two other girls were wandering shops for a dress. This one that was (Name) trying on was the first thing her own eyes carved. She only prayed that the dress was good enough on her.

Raisa waited outside for a while, looking at a small picture she had of her family... Before everything went downhill...

Raisa noticed her daughter's face, and then saw her granddaughter, wearing the blue dress she adored. One of the employees helped (Name) with the dress, tying the corset as she arranged the skirt.

"Yes. That's the one." Said the elder one.

"It even has a cape if I want to feel more like an assassin!" (Name) added.

Buying the dress, the two walked away, but (Name) then spoke:

"Do you think I could develop Hamon?"

"There's only one way to find out!"
