Bouncing along the main road of Ikebukuro, two pint sized girls skipped along the sidewalk. The shorter of the two wore a white skirt and a black jacket, while the duplicate wore opposite colored clothes of the same style. Both jackets were opened to reveal a t-shirt with two women embracing, with a sunset in the background; the words "The Lover's Door" scrawled in cursive along the side.
Mairu hummed the ending theme as she took her sister's hand and led her to a destination only Mairu knew. Her pigtailed braids sprung up and down as she skipped, and Kururi was tempted to reach out and grab one to use like a rein on a horse's bridle.
"Slow (down, Mairu)!" Kururi squeaked as her sister dragged her through the crowded streets.
"No no, we have to go faster!" she panted as she picked up the pace. Kururi groaned and tried to run faster, unable to keep up with Mairu.
"Why?"
Mairu stopped, panting heavily with a big grin on her face, "Because! Iza-nii won't sleep forever! And this is fun, isn't it? Making him chase us around the city! It's like when we played tag when we were little!"
"But (it was on in the) yard. Not (over the entire) city!" Kururi whined. Mairu pouted and let go, crossing her arms over her chest as she glanced around. They had managed to run all the way back toward the edge of Ikebukuro. Not much further, they would reach the subways, and they could really have Izaya on a wild goose chase. But Mairu couldn't do much when her sister was unable to run.
Sighing, she sat down next to her sister. She kicked her feet lightly as Kururi began to breathe again and stopped clutching her side.
"You ok?"
"Hurts…"
Mairu frowned and hugged Kururi tightly, resting her chin on her sister's shoulder, "Sorry I got carried away. You know I love to mess with Iza-nii."
Kururi nodded and hugged Mairu back, "(I) know (you do. It's) fun." The smaller of the twins stood up, dragging the other to her feet, "Come (on, let's go) farther (so Nii-san won't) find (us)." she murmured. Kururi dragged Mairu behind her, running as fast as she could, deeper into Ikebukuro.
The twins skipped down the steps into the subway, and halted at the ticket booth. Kururi frowned, winded from their sprint.
"No Money…" she squeaked, reaching into her empty pockets. Mairu grinned and pulled out a wallet; black and red and slightly damaged around the edges. Kururi's eyes widened, "That's nii-san's!"
"Indeed it is! Swiped it off him when he was sleeping. Did you ever notice Iza-nii looks like a sleeping kitty? So kawaii, neh?~" Mairu sang as she pulled out Izaya's metro card and swiped it to let herself through. She then handed it over for Kururi, who hesitated a bit before doing the same. Mairu took the card and the wallet and slid it back into her hoodie pocket, before dragging her sister onto the train.
"Next stop, anywhere!~"
