It was a DARK & STORMY NIGHT!
Midou Ban was standing at a small pier off the coast. He was wearing a blue wetsuit till his waist. He was looking for a place to keep his violet sunglasses. There was a white speedboat in front of him. He was scowling as usual. Amano Ginji was staring at the vastness of the ocean blankly. He had no idea where the replica would have been dropped. Ban dropped his cigarette and crushed it with his foot. "HRMPPFF" Ginji looked up and started giggling at Ban, who now had zipped up his wetsuit and looked extremely dorky with his face sticking out of the blue covering. "The punched Ginji for laughing on the head, "The only reason I am doing this is because you have to point me in the proper direction." Ban was a little jealous of Ginji who would be flying overhead in a chopper, pointing to where the Venus De Milo was supposed to be. He wanted to go into the chopper. Ban hopped into the speedboat and said "Ready when you are!"
Ginji walked to the chopper thinking hard. He had to point out the place as he was the one who had thrown the arms and torso of the Venus De Milo in the ocean. But for all his abilities, the one thing that he was not known for was his sense of direction. He would often get lost even in the most simple of places. And this was an ocean, a vast blank ocean. And Ban had not allowed him to contact his former Volts Kings, Ito no Kazuki and Shido, as he didn't want to give them any part of his money. "BURP!" Ginji said sorry as he entered the chopper, at least he was well fed thanks to Dr. Jackal. The chopper lifted off the land and headed to the small island in the ocean. Then somewhere about 2/3 of the way, he broke open the flare and signaled Ban to the location he thought was appropriate. He clasped his hands together and prayed for it to be the location as Ban would kill him if he made Ban waste this much money on a wasted effort.
The island was starkly desolate compared to the last time they were here. And what was that Ban had said about not using his Evil eye to play the violin. His train of thoughts was quickly derailed as the whirring of the speedboat hit his ears. Ban's blue body glowed in the red light of the flare. Ban showed a thumbs-up sign to Ginji as he came below the chopper's tail. Then the pilot swayed the chopper away to the right. And Ban jumped off into the cold ocean. He swam downwards to the bottom of the ocean to find the Venus De Milo. Ginji looked on at the ripples in the ocean.
