While he spoke to the ghost, his attention switched from the hovering entity to his fiancee who approached him only to hold his hand as the ghost responded, revealing that she needed her teddy bear of all things requiring them to enter her former home, obtain the teddy bear before placing it on the grave. Curious about what made them worthy of being able to do such a task Alice question the girl with her revealing that her toys were the things which had been haunting the mansion, promptly him to sigh heavily in respond before exclaiming. “Well this will be fun…” Alice meanwhile seemed to take a far more positive stance of the matter, wanting to see that request in the same light, he reevaluated the job weighing up the difficulty and their potential to work past such hardships. “Okay, I think we can do this, now I don’t exactly know where this mansion is would you able to tell us, or better yet lead us to it?” Twirling around happily a few times before stopping and looking at Kon, she nodded agreeing to take them there, Turning in the direction to the exit, she called them out and into the storm with her merely phasing through the door that separated interior from the weather.
While he was no longer a Neko and thus less affected by weather such as this, he recognised Alice as still being one, because of this just before he opened the door once more, he pulled out an umbrella from a stand and thrust it towards her. “Here you’re going to need this.” Assuming Alice would take this, he would simply retrieve his cloak that still slung over a hook on a wall and donned it swiftly. “Come we must hurry before the ghost runs off too quickly.” Ready to endure the full brunt of the storm, he opened the door once more and stepped out onto the porch. Fortunately the ghost was waiting for them at the edge of the porch tapping one of her feet nervously against the floor. “Let’s go, let’s go.” The impatience of the girl was questionable, but he refrained from making any comments to Alice at least for now. Wanting to begin the journey himself, he waved his gloved right hand upward at the ghost, “After you.” With a smile the girl jumped up and beginning to hover once more before racing off to the right. “Oh crap, she’s fast.” Sprinting off after he hoped that Alice would be able to keep up with them both, but even with the pregnancy she was still the strongest and fastest of the couple. Eventually they would reached the front of the mansion with Kon’s cloak soaking wet from the constant downpour of rain, wanting to get out of the wet clothing he would comment to both the ghost and alice once they both arrived. “Bloody hell let’s get inside I’m soaked to the bone.”
