Ren was still feeling pain from Yomi's massage when he woke up. She was definitely not meant for gentle roles that uses her hands.
"Yep. Going to be feeling this for a while." Ren told himself, picking up his body.
"Well, what are you going to do today?" Morgana asked him. "Just going to see some old friends here." Ren told him.
"Which ones?" Morgana asked him.
"Takemi and Iwai. If I see Kawakami she might tip off Futaba, which would open up a whole new can of worms." Ren said before asking Morgana,
"You comibg."
"Nah. Im just going to rest a bit more after that training sessions we had yesterdsay." Morgana told him.
Makoto wasn't a girl who was socially capable by any means. That was true in high school and was especially true now that she's in college. She wasn't capable of picking up on the smallest social cues.
Haru Okumura was better than her at it, but she was also having small problems. Like not knowing certain things if the common people. But both were okay with this. As long as they had there friends, they both knew that they'd be fine for now.
However they soon got a call from a fellow Phantom Thief about a strange matter.
"Ren's in tokyo?" Makoto asked in disbelief. Futaba just texted her and some of the others about this fact. Though she was doubtful about it. He's not the type to let his presence go unknown by his friends.
Futaba: He's somewhere in Asakusa, but the strange thing is that he's occasionally disappearing sometimes.
Haru: Maybe his phone died?
Futaba: No. I'd still be able to track it. And it sometimes cuts back to being trackable. The only time it's ever done something like that is if he's going to Mementos.
Yusuke: Did it return?
Ryuji: Even if it did, what would he need to do there?
It's something that he's taking care of by himself, so he's trying to take the burden all by himself again. Makoto gritted her teeth in annoyance. He's always like this. Working harder than everyone else, doing things to help them without telling them what it is. He never relies on them when he should! It was truly an annoying trait if his. Why was he like that? it was hard for her to understand.
But while she was thinking this,
Futaba: But it's strange. The nav isn't back on my phone, and when I checked his, there wasn't anything strange in it at all.
Ryuji: Maybe we should just call him?
Makoto: I'll do it.
Makoto then decided to call him.
"Ren, do you mind telling me what you're doing right now?" She asked him. Maybe she'll get a clue about what's going on here.
"I'm training to fight a group of hot big breasted ninja girls whose clothes get destroyed when they take damage." Ren said to her. deadpanned at her.
Or maybe he'll do that thing where he says something ridiculous as a distraction and lies. It must be something serious if he's not being upfront about it. But Makoto will have to push forward and try to get a straight answer out of him.
"Where are you right now?" Makoto asked him. There bo way that Ren could day anything that she couldn't confirm right now.
"In a sushi shop watching an old man feeding them his' sushi' to his granddaughter's and her friends if you know what I mean." Ren told her.
"W-what!?" Makoto repeated in shock.
"But they're all enjoying it." Ren told her. "They're gladly licking and sucking on it right now. It's honestly quite a sight. But she apparently likes it thick."
"If it ain't thick it's no good!" She heard a female voice say out loud, moaning all the while. Is this actually happening in real life!?
"I-I see! Well goodbye!!" Makoto said, hanging up the phone call.
Yusuke: Indeed. Such a sight of human on human contact must be beautiful in real life. I would absolutely love to paint such a scene! it.
Ryuji: You two are missing the point!!
Makoto: He's also said that he's in a sushi shop.
Futaba: Hold on. Let me check.
After a few minutes she came back with something.
Futaba: There is a sushi shop at Ren's current location, and the reviews for it are mostly about the old guy who runs it.
Haru: What are they?
Futaba:......
Futaba: It's better if you didn't know.
Ryuji: I don't think I can get there in time to help.
Ryuji: I'm supposed to have a session today and I can't miss a single one.
Futaba: Anyways, me and Yusuke will check out his locations ourselves.
Haru: I think me and Mako-chan can join you.
Yusuke: Really? How?
Haru: I think I can get us there soon enough.
Haru Okumura never really experienced a childhood. She didn't really have any true friends in her life for that matter. But that all changed the day that she met the Phantom Thieves of Hearts.
The day that Haru realized her feelings for him was day she didn't expect him to. It was the day that she decided to speak for herself. But unfortunately Ren didn't feel the same as her.
It wasn't an outright rejection, but hearing him say that he thought of her as a friend caused her to feel a variety of emotions at once. And when she thought that the person that she liked was dealing with something on his own, she felt like she should immediately leap into action.
Maybe this was just her being the clingy girl, but right now Haru didn't care.
But right now, she was piloting a helicopter.
"Uh, Haru, are you sure you know how to fly this thing?" Makoto asked her nervously, knowing that her driving on the road was less than ideal. She couldn't begin to imagine what she was like in the air.
"Oh, I took some lessons." Haru told her casually with a smile on her face. "I'm certain that I can get us to the helicopter pad at Okumura Food's quickly and safely enough. As long as we don't see any air police, we'll be fine."
"Wait. What?" Makoto asked worriedly before Haru started the vehicle and rising into the air without.
The ride was actually pretty casual. It was smoother than her driving was by far. It was only a matter of peaceful amount of time until they reached their destination.
"It's kind of sad that we didn't see anything else along the way. I've always end up seeing birds when I do it before." Haru told her.
"Really?" Makoto asked her. She never knew Haru had an interest in birds before.
"I've seen some eagles and Hawks before. Along with some cranes and even a couple of vultures." Haru told her with a smile on her mouth.
Makoto wanted to say something, but she didn't feel safe doing it.
"Anyways, we should meet up with Futaba and Yusuke soon." Makoto said, dexiding to try to change the topic. Haru nodded in agreement.
"Yes. Though I Haru

Ren right now was doing Iwai a favor. Working at his shop a bit while he's taking a short break. Just like old times. Ren's day was actually surprisingly filled with meeting some of his confidants, like Shinya before he's arrived here,
"This'll be enough for me." Ren told him.
"Heh, it's your call." Iwai told him before getting back to reading his latest gun magazine.
Ren then saw that a certain grey haired girl appeared in front of him.
Yumi was walking to the hotel from the nearest store. Her teammates were still injured but
"Ah, Yumi," Ren said, looking at the girl in front of him. She looked surprised, stepping back from him.
"Calm down." Ren told her. "I'm not going to fight you here."
"You can't expect me to believe the words of a twisted thief can you?" Yumi responded to him. She would've dragged him into a Shinobi Kekkei but there were too many bystanders around them. Just taking this stance alone had already gotten her looks from people.
"No, but I expect you to at least believe my actions." Ren told her casually before walking away from the scene trying to leave Yumi alone.
"Wait." She said, grabbing his shoulder with her right hand. Ren looked back at her, not with confusion, but more, dull shock at her decision. Yumi looked at him with eyes full on intense resolution leaving Ren to make once guess about what was going to hapoen soon.dc
"Let me guess, you're going to keep trying to fight me?" Ren said to her.
"No, not here." Yumi told her. Besides, my team needs me to bring them these groceries.'
"I just want to know what you're after." Yumi said, glaring at him. "You've followed us all the way here, battled one of us, and left her alive." Yumi told her. "What I want to know is why?"
"Why?" Ren repeated after her. "Simple. I'm a thief, and what I attend to steal," Ren then leaned forward into her face, their eyes meeting directly,"is your heart." Yumi then blushed from the declaration before backing away. "Enough with your shamelessness!!"
"No, I'm simply doing what I've done before. Taking hearts and changing ways." Ren said to her. "Though since I've given you a warning, I guess this is my calling card. You're heart is mine tomorrow." Ren said, pointing a finger gun at her and pulling the trigger.
"Are you all healed up?" Yumi asked them. They were all sitting around their store bought bento dinners with canned juice on the side.
"I'm feeling at one hundred percent." Yozakura told her confidently.
"I could take on any enemy that stands in my way."
"I, can like fight a ton more~" Shiki told her.
"I always have enough energy to play!!" Minori told her excitedly.
"Good." Yumi told them. "Because tomorrow we'll be going after Hebijo."

"I do not like making the first move." Ren told them.
