(Open Permit/Social) Megumi Square Mall: Yuu's Day Off and Out with a Friend

Yuu listens and empathizes with the thought of one's obsession and limited view of purpose could destroy a person and Yuu knows that she was trained to kill and craft was something she does to occupy her time until she is needed. It is a hobby she developed when working at Urahara's Shop. Hayato would not know of this because all he would know of her at the time they first talked to each other was she is a former big shot director from Tokyo, who developed a short-lived series of superhero shows called, "The Super Soul Rangers" on her own. She even started the legend of the "Gold Soul Ranger", a superhero who fights Arrancar and Hollows and Demons almost four centuries ago in Tokyo, but vanished after the original stars of the show died by series of accidents. Anybody who would know of her more popular past would know immediately that she is more than human; she would even use the term, "human" to describe mortals like Hayato and more. Despite it being a feat of being immortal, the old sayings that immortality can also be a curse was all too real for her because she can see babies grown into the men and women that she worked with before, only to grow old and forget about her.

"There is something we have in common and what I have that you don't. We are similar because we have our regrets, we have our wounds, and we're pissed off about it, but we're just too damn pretty to let it end right there. What I have that you don't have is the bad luck of being lucky."

Yuu recalls nearly dying at the hands of Eric Zarathos, but her luck came through as Cero and Shadin rescued her. She remembers recently that she would have been dragged away to who knows where if Alexander and Hayato have not come. She remembers that she would have died at Stronghold, yet she lived because the mad demon's sword glanced off of her head instead of scalping her all because she tripped over his feet on accident. That same accident allowed her to shove he sword into the mad demon's skull, killing him outright. Then she remembers back at the so-called, "Osaka Massacre" where she fends herself from many assassins dressed as butlers and maids; she nearly bought the farm against the murderer's shotgun, but a shinigami woman named, "Kimiko" took the bullet instead and allowed Yuu to flee with Hanako and Naoki Shikijou while Naoki is unconscious.

They will arrive at the mall soon.

Upon landing, Yuu snaps her fingers and in a blink of almost blinding light, she is back into her winter outfit. Yuu was indeed listening; what choice she has? She is going to be treated to a spa treatment, makeup treatment, and then buying bras for her D-Cups before treated to lunch or dinner. She could groom herself and be relaxed, but only through intense action as--after all these years--those who fought with her (who are likely captains by now) could only see her beauty shine through the brink of battle as she would strike down her adversaries with the grace of the nodachi's steel. Efficient and effective assassination based upon priorities and opportunity.

"What can you give for the extra luck? There are those who are just born with it and those who are doomed to fail again and again. And then there are those who failed time after time and still come out victorious, but at what cost? Those who fight for you are those who loved the most. I fought for both humanity and for Shadin."

It was an outright half-truth as Shadin is the only reason she fought. He was the closest thing to have for family; to the point that if they married, nothing has changed other than more time spent between them. During the Demon's incursion onto Soul Society, she was set out to destroy the siege machines because if the Seireitei fall, then Karakura Central is next along with Shadin and the clan. It was going to be a stealth mission, but she did not count on the Iramasha to go gun-ho into the battlefield and accosting her precious peace to scout around. She loathes the moment when she was not informed of anything and her mission nearly failed outright the moment that Dr. Hebi and his cohort arrived to capture her or to kill her. Because of the surprise, she could not rescue the captured allies there because she could not afford to pay her time releasing them and risk getting dragged away by the doctor. She knows she work better alone when situations called for stealth, but when it is going to be an outright battle like back with the Shinigami raid at the school or with Eric Zarathos, she will need help.

"Spa-lala first. The treatment that will come with the manicure will take the makeup off."

If anything, she is being treated with appreciation that she hardly believes that she deserved after all the times that she committed to the righteous hell on the wrong side of heaven. If she has the chance to kill Kin or Mana or Ashlei, she will take it and deal with the consequences on her own, even if it means Shadin no longer liking her or abandoning her on the field. Many scenarios run through her mind even as of now as a lot will lead to her having to look at Shadin in the eyes with all the guilt she has to carry as he passes a sentence. That is a high chance of it happening at the end of her tale.

"I'm thinking of spiced sirloin steak dinner as we can skip lunch to stick around longer."

When she looks at Hayato and sees his smile, she returns the smile as she suggests that they go to Dolce's Cafe for dinner rather than for lunch. She turns the engine off and then materializes a black trench coat in her hand with a white Kanji insignia on the back saying, "First Shadow" or "Ichikage" in Romanji. She hands the trench coat to Hayato because he forgot to bring something warm and this would suffice versus his...current attire. If he had known better than a formal officer or captain of the soul alliance, then this would raise a flag that he is befriending someone is willing to kill another human should they become a threat to Karakura while she would considered only Shadin to be her superior, which makes her deadlier to traitors and enemies as Shadin practically knows everything in an exaggerated sense and he would drop in if no one else is helping her.

"Cobie is naturally warm, so he does not need it. I am sure you are no dog, so you should take this; it is made of heavy wool with fine cotton interior to keep you from becoming itchy. Ya should get out quick because the doors will lock on its own once I closed my door again."

After saying that, she opens her door and climbs out before pushing her seat forward to allow Cobie out. Then she closes it again with a deep click within the truck. Knowing that Hayato would rush out the door while throwing on the trench coat, Yuu walks off with Cobie to the mall. While approaching the entrance, Hayato would see a pale man with the lower half of his face concealed by the trench coat clearly made of actual leather with golden silk decals while only his glyphic, silver eyes piercing through the shadow cast by his wide-brimmed, leather hat with a swan feather stuck to the side. Just by the look, he would be a mysterious bard or daring swashbuckler of yore as clutched in his hands was a bow and violin, and a majestic jeweled rapier sheathed by his right side and barely visible underneath his trench coat. Resting before his feet is a box with a slot in front of it for passerby's to slip a coin or paper into it without having the snow ruining it. On top of the box is a stanza as the man begins playing Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake.

Her soul shall be scattered among the unknown, Until she could solve her own mystery. Her form shall be withheld among the night sky, Until she would find herself again.

Should Hayato donate a little for this mysterious man, he would play more quietly as he whispers, "May Mother grant you the power and an answer, friend."
