"Where's the captain, Kane?" asked Misa as they were carrying stuff aboard the Bentenmaru. "She went home" he replied, Misa's look on her face said 'ohh, ok' so she didn't have to say a thing.

"Ahhhhhh, I love the beach" said Marika to herself admiring the view "its a good place to think things over" added someone. Marika quickly turned around to see who said it. "who are you" she said to some girl. "My name is Yayako Sagatamo, Marika Kato". Marika gasped then said "how do you know my name and tell me exactly who you are?!"
