Kotaro became completely still when she hugged him and waited for her to leave before following. He paid for the room and lead her to the train station where he bought tickets to Central. "Nesmine why do you help me even though it can lead to trouble?" He asked.

Nesmine looked at him, somewhat confused, and a little irritated. "Eh, I dunno, why'd you gotta ask? Not like I nose around in your busine- oh." She stopped short, remembering how many prying questions she would ask him in a day.
"Okay fine, you win. I guess I just like ya, but don't think that counts for nuthin. As soon as I find your sister, I'm outta here, and off to the next job." She mumbled, hoping he'd buy the lie. There was no way he'd get to know how much she wanted to stick around just to help out, or just how quiet Wicked had been since he'd showed up. Nesmine had grown accustomed to brawling with Wicked each and every day, but now he was silent.

Kotaro said nothing as he took her into the train and sat across from her in the booth. "I wouldn't expect you too stay Nesmine. But the room I gave you will always be free for you." He said as the train pulled away. "I doubt I will find Lira anyway, so if you want you can leave once we get to Central. I won't stop you or anything."

"Hey, would you stop it with that! A promise is a promise, and I've promised to you tenfold that I'm going to find your sister, and that's whether you like it or not! So quit trying to push me aside when I want to help. I don't know why I care, I just do, and I'm sticking to it!!" She shouted, thoroughly lecturing him on her point. Nesmine was oddly stubborn about her promises, and would happily follow it to her death. "Why do you gotta be such a but about it? Is it wrong when somebody besides you cares about your situation?" She mumbled, somewhat afraid that he didn't want her to tag along anymore, and that he was too kind to turn her away when she needed a place to stay.

"I got this scar the last time someone stuck around to help me. I couldn't protect her and she died trying to help me. I don't want the same to happen to you." He said closing his eyes and falling asleep, exhausted from the days events.

Nesmine didn't know what to say, so she simple curled up in a ball, waiting for the train to end. The day had been long, and tough, and she had learned a lot about her friend. A part of her still believed that he would be hurt long before she died, something she never wanted to happen.
(Closing thread!)
