“Maybe if I turn here…no?” Sera had managed to get lost in an unfamiliar part of Tokyo. As nice as the area was, she had other things to do and needed to find a bus stop. She could ask for directions, but the only other person around seemed to be a young boy. 

‘Worth a shot’  Sera shrugged as she approached the child.

“Hey, do you know where the bus stop is?”

Kaito looked around, arms crossed over his chest as he tried to figure out what he could do right now. He’d called Aoko to let her know he’d be working on something with Jii for a while, so he didn’t want to draw attention by going home where she might notice he wasn’t actually out…

A vaguely familiar voice drew him from his musings about just staying at the park for a couple of hours or so to look up at the person coming near. Then he blinked once, twice, and his eyes widened slightly.

…Think he’s feeling a phantom pain from the time at that heist, now…

…But wait, he’s a kid. Not the Kid. It was doubtful anything would happen now, so the magician simply smiled disarmingly, even as he took a step back to face her.

“Yeah, it’s just a couple of streets down and to the right. There’s a tree next to it, so it’s sometimes hard to see if you don’t know where it is.”
