Vol. 2 - Chapter 23

Kaori

Side by side, Kaori and Keiko walked through the streets of Jade on the way to the eastern gates. Kaori had to wear a large hat, and kept her hair in a bun, hidden under it, in an effort to remain unrecognized. She couldn't help but feel nervous every time she passed a citizen by. 

She doubted anyone would do anything violent, she was a Savior after all, but she didn't want to deal with any of the potential harassment that could come from her situation. Keiko looked at her with some concern. 

"No problems so far," Keiko muttered. "Probably shouldn't push our luck too hard though." 

"Uh, it'll be fine, don't worry" Kaori replied, actively trying to be positive about this whole thing. "So... Where are you going, again?"
