"I'm not the one who should be answering that.." Shun said quietly as he held her close, "Are you going to be alright..?"
She had been against this originally. He wasn't sure what had spurred her to change her mind.

"Yes.....and no...I don't know really." She admitted. Her mind was still a huge ball of confusion that kept turning out terrible possibilities.

There was a moment of silence, but then Shun leaned down and kissed her before guiding the lycan towards the elevator.
"Come on. We should head out."
She seemed to be in a state of shock, and quite frankly, he couldn't really blame her he supposed. But, he wanted to get her mind off of things, and that wasn't so possible while they were standing around.
"...Have you been on a bike before?"

Mitsu nodded at that. She was more than ready to leave this place but as they started toward the elevator she paused briefly at Shun's question. "Bike? Like a bicycle?" She made a motion like she was holding handle bars. "I've been on one of those before. My brother tried to teach me."
She left out the fact that it hadn't gone very well. Her balance was far from being the best.

"...Sort of. I had meant a motorcycle," Shun clarified. Being on a bicycle was fairly different just in the fact that it wasn't nearly as fast.
"I should still have one around here.. unless they got rid of it. But if we take it, we can go around the city a little more easily," he explained. After all, they wouldn't just be on foot. The city was a big place too.

"Motorcycle?" The prospect seemed to distract her a little. "I've..never been on a motorcycle." They looked rather cool in the movies speeding down the roads as heroes made their escape from something terrible. Hopefully they would not be part in any high speed chases.
Following Shun closely Mitsu looked back toward Kaitou's office on last time before facing her reaper again. "Do...you think Mr. Shiro will be okay?"

"Would you like to ride one? I'll be driving of course," he offered. Shun wanted to make sure she was comfortable with the idea. In any case, he went on to head towards the garage. If she didn't want to ride, they could walk out anyway.
"He should be fine. Chances are that he's respawned by now. But... I can't imagine him being very happy about what happened. We can try and find him later if you'd like."

Thinking about it for a short second Mitsu nodded to Shun's question, following him as he made his way to the garage. It didn't involve being up high and Mitsu didn't have to worry about steering. Riding around would probably serve as a good distraction for the time being.
"I can't imagine Mr. Shiro would be happy about what happened no. It might not be a bad idea to check on him."

"I know where he lives... well. Unless he's moved in the last year or so. After we go around, we can visit him," Shun nodded. Since she hadn't objected to riding with him, he went and made a quick stop to grab the helmets. He at least had a spare helm that she could use. He also grabbed a backpack in case they needed something.
"You might need to hide your ears for this," he stated. He wasn't certain if it'd be comfortable to wear with her wolf ears. Not only that but... it may be easier for her to ride without her tail too for that matter.
Once in the garage, he approached the vehicle, which had gathered a bit of dust seeing how it hadn't been used in awhile. Placing the helmet on, he climbed on and got it started. Good, it was still working.
"Climb on behind me and hold on," he instructed.

"Alright." She nodded. At least they would be able to check up on him and see how he was doing. Mitsu knew he probably wasn't happy but maybe things would be better once he knew Shun would be around to help eventually. Perhaps Mr. Shiro had an idea on how to make that possible.
Once they were actually in the garage Mitsu was handed an item she had yet to ever wear. She looked the helmet over, tapping on it lightly before looking into the opening. The lycan had started to play with the visor in the front when Shun suggested she would probably fair better to hide her ears.
"Oh, so..its a hat." Concentrating Mitsu allowed her ears and tail to fade away so that she was left with a smaller pair of human ears on the sides of her head. Everything seemed so quiet and muffled now but if she had to wear the helmet Shun was probably right, this would be more comfortable.
Walking a little awkwardly at first Mitsu followed Shun the rest of the way to his bike, the helmet clasped between her hands. He had climbed on immediately and started it up but she was curiously inspecting it instead. Freeing one of her hands she poked around the seat and some of the random pieces to see if they did anything. At his instruction she looked back at the helmet in her hands and turned it around until it was in the correct position and slipped it onto her head. Now the next task...getting on.
She paced a bit before she finally decided on the best way to mount the bike and carefully climbed on behind her reaper. Once she was in place she wrapped her arms around his middle to hold on.

Once Mitsu was in place, Shun carefully got them out of the garage and onto the street. Having been over a year since he last drove, there was a little bit of rust in his system.
Not.. to mention that the last time he did, he still had two eyes. He was going to need to drive carefully while he readjusted himself. If it were just himself, it wasn't as much of a problem, but he had a passenger here. As a note to himself, he was going to need to try and find a way to modify his mirrors so that he could see more easily on his left.
The streets were at least not too busy at this time of the day, so he was able to go about more casually as he began to navigate around.
For now, he just had one destination in mind, as he made his way towards the pier. After awhile, the edge of the island and the sea could be seen. Apart from various docks for the boats, there was a small area for people to walk about. Not far off, was a large scareish wheel. He had no plans on taking her on that, but it was a place with a niceish view.

When the bike first moved into motion Mitsu was startled enough to grip Shun a little tighter, nervously peeking around his shoulder to see where they were going. It took a bit of adjustment but once they were on the street and moving at a steady pace she began to relax and actually enjoy the ride. In a way it was a lot like running in her wolf form just without the leg work.
Mitsu could tell they were getting closer to the water before she could see it. The air had changed and even inside the helmet she could smell the salt in the air. She peered around her reaper at the scenery up ahead, daring to push herself up a little higher to get a better view. It looked like there was a pavilion of sorts and off in the distance..a Ferris wheel. Hopefully they would avoid that.

Shun was glad that Mitsu didn't squeeze him too tightly. It would be very bad if she caused him to pass out while he was driving. Once they were at the pier, he stopped and climbed on off with her. Removing, his helmet, he took in a breath, smelling the salt from the sea nearby.
He then looked over towards his lycan to see if she was following.
In the area, there were also a few other things. Some small shops and food places were there. There were also a couple of street vendors for the same purposes. One that he noticed, was selling takoyaki.
"..Ever had takoyaki?" he asked her.

Once the bike came to a stop Mitsu dismounted almost as awkwardly as she had climbed on. Pulling the helmet off sent her hair into a frenzy, which she attempted to smooth down while she had a look around without the visor in the way. The horseman trials were the only time she had ever been to such a large body of water until now and this was a lot more enjoyable. It wasn't as bright and the weather wasn't as hot.
Taking in the shops around them Mitsu secured her helmet with the bike before she left to follow after her reaper, turning to regard the stand he had pointed out. "Takoyaki? Is it like Taiyaki?" She hadn't had much luck with those...having found chocolate in the last one she had tried.

"No. It's very different. It's little octopus balls," he said before approaching the street vendor. The ghost in charge was getting some ready to make a fresh batch from the looks of things, "They're pretty good. Would you like to try some?"
