POV 2:
*Yoichi gives a cold pad to Mino that he still had in his pocket.*
*Mino takes it and puts it on his blue eye.*
Mino: You know, it really hurts.
Lillizia: Yeah, I already said sorry.
Yoichi: Mino... aren't you one of the best soldiers of Oakheart?
Mino: Tsk...
*Yoichi giggles.*
*It's quiet for a while as they walk.*
Mino: Also, little girl.
Lillizia: Lillizia, or if that's too long, call me Liz.
Mino: Alright, Liz. How are you so strong at such a young age?
Lillizia: Oh... long story short, one of our members in the TCC has a big brother who is really good at fighting. He's not here often, he comes here like two times a year, and every time he's here, I want to show how much I've improved! Also, Minka, the person I talked about, helps me too. Since she's the oldest one in the group, it feels like she's my mother.
Mino: I have so many questions now...
Lillizia: Go ahead!
Mino: Don't you have a mom or-
Lillizia: My parents threw me out of their house, and then the TCC kind of adopted me, and I grew up there. But they also tell me that I'm very... different from the others my age. And I can already tell what you're gonna ask next.
*Mino and Lillizia, at the same time*: What is the TCC?
Lillizia: Yeah, yeah. It's a group of people. But here's a secret. We actually aren't allowed to exist.
Mino: Why is that?
*Meanwhile, as they talk, Yoichi notices someone close to them talking.*
Lillizia: Well-
Yoichi: Shh, do you hear that?
*Everyone is quiet.*
People from behind: Yeah, but you know...
Lillizia: Hide!
*Everyone jumps into a seaweed plant.*
Sophia: Wait, someone is here.
*Everyone walks slowly towards the place where the sound came from.*
*As they arrive, Lillizia jumps out and attacks Kayo.*
Kayo: Hey! What is that?!?
Kin: Liz! Stop!
*Lillizia stops.*
Lillizia: Oh, it's you!
*Lillizia jumps off Kayo.*
Kin: You really need to learn to stop attacking random people.
Lillizia: Yeah, but what if people are chasing us and find our place?
Kin: Well, you're right. Anyways, speaking of not finding the place, we need to blindfold all of you.
Kayo: Oh god...
Kin: Also, that black-haired guy...
*Kayo and Mino look at each other.*
Kayo: Which one of us?
Kin: The... not middle-part guy...
Mino: My name's Mino.
Kin: Yeah, Mino. May I ask how you got that "eye"?
*Mino looks at Lillizia.*
*Lillizia does a grumpy face.*
Kin: ...Liz...
Lillizia: Yeah... anyways, back to the blindfolds. We have different colors. We have pink, blue, and the rest are grey...
Yoichi: I'll take the pink one!
Lillizia: ???... I mean, if you want to.
Yoichi: Yes, thank you.
*Kayo gives him a disgusted face.*
Yoichi: What? Can men not like the color pink?
Kayo: Nah, nah, I mean, they can, but it's... yeah...
Yoichi: Hm...
*Everyone now has a blindfold. Yoichi has the pink one, Spezi has the blue one, and Mino and Kayo have the grey ones.*
