She had been gone for hours. What was taking her so long? Girls. Sometimes I wonder if they take this long on purpose. At this rate, Jack would've gotten there before we do. Ugh, this is stupid. If she doesn't come out in the next five minutes, I'm gonna storm in and drag her out. How pointless is this? I mean, why are we even waiting for her anyway. Oh, wait. Duh. Because of me. But she could've at least took into consideration before.

We're still waiting for her. Taking her sweet time I see. It's probably over by now. Because of her, we missed it. Maybe the next one. If there is going to be a next one. I checked my watch again and it has been two minutes since the last time I checked.

Then I heard racing foot steps going towards me. I looked up and saw Kimiko running. She was gasping for breath by the time she reached us.

"Sorry I'm late. My stupid straightener broke down on me, so I had to put my hair up and made sure there weren't any bumps. Not only that, I thought I lost my lipstick but I found Omi with it and he thought it was candy, again. As soon as I got my make up on, I had to find the perfect outfit and I found this lying around," she said pointing to her black tee shirt with a large white star on it and a pair of worn in jeans that look they haven't been worn yet. "So I thought might as well considering, well, y'know-"

"Are you done now?" I asked irritatingly.

"Yes. A little tense are we?" she asked me.

"I just don't want screw this up, that's all."

"Well, you don't have to. It's my fault anyway. By the way, what time is it?"

"It's almost 8:30."

"Wow. We missed it, didn't we?"

"Sure did."

"I'm sorry, Rai. I guess I got all nervous and..."

"Don't worry, we'll catch the next one."

"Which is when?"

"The next half hour, unless we hurry," I said as I grabbed Kimiko's hand and started running towards a really big Dojo.

"It's about time. You should really start planning these kind of things ahead of time," he said to us.

"My fault entirely," she said modestly. We got on Dojo's back and he started to ascend.

"Next stop, movie theater in Hong Kong."
