~Your POV:~
It was late evening. I was in the same inn as Cherry and we were all currently sat round a table. Formulating a plan. Apparently we weren't at the hot springs. It was a secluded spring. Nowhere near where we were. It was the perfect distance for a beef.

"I heard haunting have been taking place." I say.

"Yeah, they said don't go out at night." Miya adds.

"To be honest, I don't care. I just wanna know what a hot spring feels like." I say.

Everyone decided to agree with me, so all 7 of us headed outside. With maps. We had to all race to the hot springs. We counted down and headed off. I followed Joe and Cherry, thinking it'd be the safest route.

We kept on heading until arriving at the springs. I went and changed and managed to get in before Joe and Cherry. I sunk into the water, hiding everything. Only my head poking out.

"Say, Y/N, why did you willingly skate against Adam again?" Joe asks.

"I thought I had improved. Thought I could beat him. I didn't have enough speed. Not height. Normally I'm so good at this stuff. I feel like I'm regressing rather than progressing." I say.

"What makes you say that?" Cherry asks.

"Cos after all these years of being free from Adam, I still can't beat him. I still can't get away from his grasp." I say.

All of a sudden, we smell this awful smell. I didn't even know what it was. We were ambushed. We stayed at the spring until the next day before heading back to Okinawa. It turns out those things that were chasing us where the six wonder. Apparently a Paantu festival took place.

Everyone stunk of that stuff. I somehow, didn't. Probably because I avoided them touching me. Everyone else stunk. Even after a few showers. We soon arrived back at Okinawa. I headed home to drop my stuff off. Once I did, I headed out again, finding Reki and Langa on some steps.

I sat down, looking at the sky in front of us. Then I felt something brush against my back. I sat up straight, scared as to what it was. Then it climbed into my lap. It was a cat. I panicked and started babbling.

"R-Reki get this thing off me!" I said.

They both looked at me confused and saw the cat in my lap.

"The cat?" Langa asks.

"Yes! Now get it off me!" I say.

Langa took the cat off my lap while Reki just laughed at me.

"What? What's so funny?!" I say.

"Nothing. Just. You're scared of cats!" He says, laughing more.

"You can't say anything. You jumped when you saw a cat on a statue." Langa points out.

I then start laughing at Reki to which he pouts. He seemed down though which wasn't like him. Maybe it was because he asked Langa to not skate against Adam again. I sighed before getting up and heading home again and changing to Phoenix's outfit. I changed and headed over to S seeing everyone but Reki.

Apparently Adam had some news to tell everyone. I had no clue what that could've meant. Shortly after I thought that, he came flying down with a parachute. He landed with his skateboard.

"I have decided to hold a tournament!" Adam says.

All our phones light up with a sign-up option for a tournament. Hmm. This is interesting. I'm gonna sign up for this! I signed up under 'Rose' since I knew he'd know who I was. I still find it odd that Reki didn't show. I thought this'd be right up his alley. More so than me. His arm was already healed. Mine was sort of. Since it could never truly heal.
