Shenmue: An Alternative Story
Chapter 5: Fortune Teller and Nozomi
After leaving the capsule toy machines far behind Ryo now found himself in Doubita. Ryo continued to walk until reaching the fortune tellers, so thinking it may help, Ryo entered.
"Ah, i have been for seeing your arrival" The fortune teller said as Ryo entered " Please, take a seat."
Ryo did so
" I see you are in urgent need of answers"
" I am"
" Seek a lady surrounded by flowers"
" Thanks, Bye" Ryo then got up to leave
" What about my money?"
" If your able to see the future then you should of foresaw that I wouldn't pay"
With that Ryo left.
" Seek a lady surrounded by flowers, must mean Nozomi."
So Ryo made the short journey round the corner to the flower shop where Nozomi worked.
Just outside the flowers shop an elderly gentleman flew from the shop
" That's for not paying full price!" Nozomi shouted
" It was only one yen" The gentleman replied
" Exactly. You think just because your old you can get things cheaply? Well you can't. Now cough up that Yen."
Nozomi approched the elderly gentleman determined to get that last Yen, then from around the corner she saw Ryo.
" Hi Ryo" Nozomi said, with a huge angelic smile
" Hey Nozomi" Ryo replied
" Ryo, look at that" Nozomi pointed. Ryo turned round and saw nothing interesting, then heard a loud smash. Turning round Ryo saw the elderly gentleman knocked out with bits of broken glass round him.
" What happened?"
Nozomi. Still with an angelic smile replied " A vase fell from that plane up there"
" What plane?" Ryo replied
" Never mind. So what can help you with" Nozomi asked, rather flirtatiously
" Im looking for some Chinese guy, he was wearing a silky green robe"
" Maybe the rumors about him being gay are true" Nozomi thought "No it can't be"
" Well i did hear that Tom had a argument with someone like that"
" You mean Tom from the hot dog stand?"
" Do we know any other Tom?"
" Yea"
" Who?"
" Ok i don't. Happy"
With that Ryo went off in the direction of Tom's hot dog stand. Leaving Nozomi with her thoughts
" One day Ryo. One day."
Cut to daydream of Nozomi on top of Ryo on a bed, who is tied up.
