Lee had to convince herself this was a good thing. Though, she felt she needed no one to help her sometimes, especially when it came to her own things. Ragtime had to mentally push her to even consider the idea of going to this guild for assitance. What other choice did she have? Home? Hell, no. According her cousin, Astrid, Solomon was already on her tail. Her parents and uncle were still not out of the woods. Astrid had been vague and distant with her and updates. She had her reasons and already made them clear upon each call, assuring Lee that it was no ill intent.
"I am still unsure about this, Ragtime" she whispered to herself. Internally, he sighed at the thought of Lee having second thoughts.
"You are going to do this for the sake of your own sanity and your daughter. Remember, if not for you, for her and Lector. I will take care of you, kid. Just keep her safe. The worse thing they could say is no" he assured her. He and her talked within her own thoughts. Outside, everyone thought she was just focused. Her daughter was at her side. Hikari was wearing a yellow shirt and boots with a red pair of overalls. Her hairs was a dirty blonde color that was long and wavy.
Hosenka was beautiful during the night. There were Joyan paper lanterns lit up on the strings along each booth which was selling all sorts of food. LeeAnn, of course, gotten lots of unneeded stares from other men, checking her out. They all smelled horribly drunk. She gave death glares, enough to poison someone's drink. Hikari held her hand and LeeAnn made sure she did not go any where. She was still trying to get used to the idea of parenthood, but so far she was doing okay. "You're nearing the guildhall. Stand up straight. Head held high and relax, kid. I am sure you will be alright" Ragtime furtherly assured her. Silently, she came upon a large, beautiful building that was Joyan in style.
Hikari's and Lector's eyes grew stars. Their mouths were gapped with a grin. Both looking at each other then ran ahead of Lee. With a groan, she dashed in front of them and glared down. "Okay, you two. Here are the rules. We are guests. This is not a playground. I want BOTH of you on your best behavior. Please. Just this once" she spoke, sternly. Her eyes begged them to at least mind their manners. A giant gate was behind her, blocking them to get inside. "Again, behave. Hikari this means no running around, no screaming or squealing, you stay by my side of else no candy after dinner. Got that?"
Hikari's eyes became a bit sad, but could tell her mother was stressed. Sweetly, the small girl intertwined her hand with Lee's. "Let's go, mommy." At that moment, Lee felt her stomach churn making her ache. It reminded her of her own parents and what they were going through. She had to be there for Hikari. No one else was going to. Slowly, she pushed onto the gates and entered into the guild. Everything here was beautiful. Of course, the others were amaze. Lee had to admit it that Blue Pegasus was no where near as impressive as this guildhall. This place had everything. Though, there was more pressing matters on hand. She entered into the guildhall and found someone who was a member. "Excuse me, where can I find the guildmaster, Kurisa? I am a member of the Blue Pegasus guild. I was wondering if she could help me with something. My name is Lee Nakamura" she spoke.
