Much like Akui, the last ten minutes played in her mind over and over again and above all emotions she felt right now, one of sheer powerlessness was the most dominant one. Kideme only wanted the best for the friends she had because she cherished them more than any other thing in her life. But Akui was his own person and he had his own agenda, and she wasn't going to stand in his way, especially now when he took and kissed her hand. Before he'd even say anything, she knew the answer to her offer and she smiled with a solemn nod. If nothing else, she would pray for his safety. "Mmm..." Now that it was time to get out and face the crowds, she did so with her head held high and an elegant demure about her, taking his arm. Although Kideme wasn't on the higher lists of celebrity, people still knew her name and arm in arm with Akui, they were treated like royalty. After perhaps 15 minutes of a little mingling, shaking hands, networking and even a few innuendos, people began moving toward the theater. Kideme and Akui were soon escorted to their own personal opera box to the right of the stage on the third floor. They were sharing the luxurious area with an elderly couple and they would make a short bit of small talk before the lights would start to dim. "By the way...." Kideme would turn to face him, whispering in his ear. "....There was one other reason I thought to invite you..." With a smirk, she nodded toward the stage. The play would then soon begin and a slew of colorful characters with vibrant black, red and white makeup appeared, and the main character of all this? His name was Akui. DM: While the boy and the woman were taken up to their seats, the man with blue hair followed and passed by their pillbox seats, flashing a light that shone dully off of Kideme's earring. When nothing happened again, that strange shine of light appeared again, this time reflecting off the white jewel of her ring. Kideme glanced down toward the light that was no longer there but thought nothing else of it. The third time, however, shone directly in her eyes and she looked over her shoulder in slight annoyance. Akui might have seen it, but Kideme could actually feel this light, whatever it was, and it made her skin prickle with agitation. She got up now and pressed her left index finger to her red lips toward Akui while she disappeared through the sliding shoji doors and closed them behind her. Most of the upper level was dark so her shadow wasn't even visible through the paper doors. If Akui did decide to persue her though, when he opened the door, Kideme was no gone and there was no sign of her. Not a lingering scent nor a shadow would give way to where she had gone. On either side him was the curving row of doors that would eventually lead toward the open balcony areas and then the stairs.
