Light blue skies, barely any clouds and a blaring sun, this is what some would call, 'A perfect day.' But in Ikebukuro, this was typical weather, it would be that or a mighty storm.
A mop of blonde hair moved silently through the city, a cigarette hanging loosely from his bottom lip. His emerald eye's glistening in the sun.
He pulled his Matryoshka jacket hood over his head to hide from the Ultra violet rays.
The city didn't look much different from when he was here 14 years ago, except the larger masses of flashing lights.
The young male looked up from the ground, he stared at a cardboard cut-out that appeared to be a cutesy looking anime character in a maid outfit, He studied it for a moment before looking at the faces that had popped out from behind it.
He recognised the duo immediately, "Karisawa-San, Yumasaki-San….. Nice to see you guys again." He said, lowering his back slightly in a bow.
Their face's lit up as they also remembered the blonde male,
"Jasper-Kun!" They said in unison.
The male smiled, "Hey, wanna get a coffee and catch up?" He said, shoving his hands into the pockets of his blue Matryoshka jacket.
They agreed to go along with him, getting the others in their 'gang.'
