Chapter 5

Page 48- _Cuddled in stiff air_

Rintaro's eyes were left hanging out in amazement moving through the almost endless nicely grown trees. Point blank sleeping during the view a night before, all the tall trees grown in perfect order left her in wonder. The breeze brushing through her face made it all the worthwhile to take a peek outside longer. Chancing into view was Sokuden bus station trailing a small line of people and seemingly holding a bus ready to leave. Hiroshi (Takahiro's driver) stomped the accelerator and sped down the slanted slope. Kagami squealed with happy terror as all three felt sparks from an excitement frisson. He shifted down the gears changing his feet from the accelerator ready to pull before the Hirano red bus. Finally he drew the brakes in a drifting way and led the girls to a queue.

Hiroshi.... _Call master Takahiro when you're ready to be picked up. With that said, please excuse me and have a pleasant day._

He passed a short bow again, got into the limo and left. "Hiroshi was it? he values etiquette almost like Ayami, but he's kind," thought Rin as she followed Kiyohime and Kagami into the bus. A while after necessary preparations, they sat and slid straight into a conversation. Contrary to the older girls' talk, the younger princess pressed her head against the window until she was snatched by a reverie in her sister's laps.

After a long series of hilarious jokes and interesting facts mostly from Kiyo, the girls finally reached their destination. The Susukino bustling air assured Rin was definitely in her home city. Driving a given thirty kilometers away and she'd be back thriving in Asahi avenue. Above the district hovered a pale grayish blue sky hoarding the haze and exhaust fumes from millions of vehicles. Tranquility was cloaked under the busy buzzing hundreds no!, thousands of power house workers, tourists and residents drowning the peace in laughter, yelling, music and vendors advertising their cheap goods. Opposite to Rin's open eyes and amazed face, the princesses were split-faced with pale and ready to barf expressions. They got off the bus and took a short break on the nearest bench. She bought them a bottle of ice-cold sparkling water. A while later led by the recovered Kiyohime, they set off to their first stop.

Standing in front of a foreign souvenir and supermarket , Kagami stammered the words," D-Duu-rra...?, until the girls helped her.

Rin & Kiyo.... _Durallin's Foreign Go To Supermarket!_

Simultaneously they read out loud and looked at each other bursting in giggles. Ready to spiral into an unnecessary "i knew that!" yell-taunt, the rude princess felt a soft hand grab hold of her palm. She looked up only to be greeted by Haruno's usual bright and cheerful smile.

Rintarõ.... _I can hold your hand if you don't mind_

She was caught by the surprise of a warm feeling flowing from Rin's hand but quickly let go in a brusque manner. After once showing a sign of significant weakness, her face reverted to its usual pouty look.

Kagami.... _For your own information i'm 14 years old so i can take care of myself!_

Rintaro simply ignored her rude reply and released the girl's small hand. Echoes bounced back her head holding a sigh in shock. "Wait!, is this short girl really 14!!?," she moved towards Kiyo and whispered in her ear. The princess furthered back a bit and decided to cheer up her little sister by imperiously announcing their age.

Kiyohime.... _Yep! , Mii is 14 and i'm 16, together we're the fabled imperious ladies, Aka magnets to our stupid polar opposite twin brothers._

She was smothered in a grinning spirit flunking an almost flawless attempt at an evil laugh. Cajoling everyone else into a giggle bath, soon they found themselves in joyful spirits and a cheerful atomsphere.

Rintaro.... (_Well i guess this is the first shop on the item list_)

The "Durallin Store" glass doors slid open revealing shelves stocked of food and other necessities. Almost instantaneous with the sliding sound, a sudden tap clocked on Rintaro's left shoulder. She turned around only to find herself meeting pale green eyes, blonde hair and pale white skin.
