After six days as promised, Akasan finally was coming up on the majestic Pink City within the two-week timeframe.
Gida barely made it alive. He was on his hands and knees, panting. "That... was the hardest thing... I've ever done in my life."
Akasan chuckled. "Well congratulations I guess. Come on, we don't have to run anymore."
Gida's legs felt like jelly. But he continued on.
Akasan walked out into the city. He didn't find any sight of his Elites.
Gida looked around. "This is a nice city... what are we here for?"
"My group is here." Akasan flared up with crimson fire for only a brief moment then stopped it.
Gida jumped back. "Whoa, what was that?!"
"Hm? Just my crimson fire. It's nothing serious."
A portal opened up to Akasan's right in between two buildings. Hanami, Jin, and Naozumi came out of it.
Akasan ran over to them. "You guys are okay, that's good."
Hanami looked Akasan up and down. She noticed his bandaged arm. "What happened to you?"
