"Storage Room": (continued) Makino slid the key in the lock taking a deep breath, turning the key the lock clicked and she slid the door open. Allura peeking into the dark room looking for a the light switch. Finding it she flipped the switch.
Makino's eyes widened when she saw a full storage room. She looked to Allura with a bright smile. "So far so good." She stepped in the room. "Lets look through the crates and make sure they have what they claim in them."

Allura nodded and started with a crate closest to the door. She looked through, making a mental checklist of the things she found inside.
"May be bad with money, but at least she's honest for the most part." She continued looking through the crate then looked to Makino, "Do you remember what theme they said they wanted to go with?"

Makino nodded as she dug through another one of the crates. "Yeah, it was a masquerade festival. "Though, when I was going through the paperwork, I saw nothing of them obtaining masks for them to sell at the festival." She moved to another crate and opened it.
"A masquerade?" There was obvious worry in the redhead's voice as she stopped searching through the crate and looked to her friend, "Is that really a good idea considering the events as of lately?"
Makino nodded. "That has already been taken into consideration. Byakuya-sama thought that maybe a mask not able to be worn at all times would make it safer. That way we could at least still dress up." Makino continued to look through the one crate as she talked. "I guess we could change it to a costume party." She shrugged, "either or we have to make sure people know masks that are worn are not acceptable."

Allura nodded slightly as she felt a nervous pit deep in her stomach that she tried to ignore. The only reason this bugged her so much was what had happened recently with Sayoko, but of course she wouldn't say anything about that directly.
"Maybe I'm just paranoid. It just seems like a very bad idea, but if they have the precautions to insure it'll be safe. I guess there's no harm in it." She turned her attention to a different crate from before and she began looking through that one, trying to distract her from the buzzing thoughts in her mind.

In hearing the worry in Allura's tone she turned away from the crate she was looking through and looked at her. "Is there something wrong, Allura? You seem..." she shrugged. "Concerned about this more then you are putting on. Did something happen?"
Allura didn't look up from the crate but tried to laugh off the question, "Of course not, Makino. Like I said. I'm probably just being paranoid about this."
Makino walked toward her. "But something is bothering you. What's wrong?"

Allura heard her footsteps and glanced over at her. She sighed quietly knowing Makino was going to keep trying to pry it out of her, but she wanted to at least try to lie her way out of it.
"Like I've told you before. I am being paranoid and I've just been having trouble sleeping again because my dreams came back. I'm sure everything will be perfectly fine. Of all the people who have stuff to worry about danger-wise, I should be the one at the very bottom of the list."

Makino's hand rested to her shoulder as she shook her head. "Not true. With the way these kidnappings are going all the females in the area need to be paranoid. These guys mean business." She shook her head and sighed.
"I am just hoping the guys that harassed us are not behind this." She smiled. "Then again if they are at least they have an ID of them and can track them easier."

"With how they acted, I wouldn't doubt it was them. I just hope all of this stops soon, so many people seem scared of their own shadows right now." A thought popped to Allura's mind when she said those words.
"Speaking of the kidnapping paranoia. My parents think I'm going to get nabbed any day now and my mother keeps insisting I come home." A laugh slips through her lips and she shakes her head, trying to change the tone of the situation, "But I'm sure without the kidnappings happening my parent's would insist on me being home."

Makino giggled softly. "As is my mother and I believe Byakuya-sama is waiting for me to mess up one more--" her eyes went wide. "Fuck!"
"What!?" Allura asked her looking around as Makino rubbed her temple.
Makino walked to the door of the storage building and looked around outside of it then sighed heavily as she stepped back looking at Allura. "I was given a warning by Byakuya-sama. He told me and to let you know. If we ditch our escorts one more time we were both getting sent home until the threat of these guys is over."

Allura blinked and her eyes went wide momentarily. "Well shit. I don't even ditch mine, I just leave before they show up because I don't enjoy being followed around."
Makino nodded at her friends words, "I was just so distracted and focused on getting this done today that I forgot to even bother finding someone to escort me."
"Do you think we should go find someone now then to avoid getting into any trouble?" Allura's expression didn't seem all too concerned, but it was obvious that she'd rather not go back home.

Makino nodded. "If we don't want to get sent back home I would have to agree with that." She looked around the room once more. "I guess I will corner Ayako and finally get the spare key from her."
She looked back at Allura and smiled. "Got any plans after classes?"

"Good luck with that." Allura laughed some then shrugged at Makino's question.
"Other than the usual, no." She put the top back on the crate she was looking through then raised an eyebrow at her friend, "Why, got something planned?"

Makino laughed, "yeah." she looked around the storage room. "I will get Riku-kun and Soji-kun in here to help as well." She continued to look around at everything. "We got a quite a few crates to go through. Plus, I can bring in the list of what they clam to have in here and we can check it off as we go."
"Riku is helping now?" Makino nodded slowly as Allura smiled. "Well that is good to know you two are speaking again."
Makino nodded in turn with a smile. "I missed Riku. He has always been a good friend. It was foolish of me to freak out the way I did over what happen in class."
The two moved toward the door Allura turning off the lights once they reached the door. "So after classes?" They both stepped out of the building as Makino closed and locked the door behind them. "I will whip something up for us to bring along for dinner. That way once we are here we don't have to leave until we are finished or it gets to be too late."

"Sounds good to me, it'll get most of it out of the way." Allura smiled some as they started to walk away from the storage building, "I should probably go get my stuff. I'll see you guys later."
They went their separate ways and Allura realized that for once she didn't feel anxious to be outside and her thoughts were a bit more positive than they have been as of late. Hopefully that was a sign that things would work out and everything would go back to normal.

"Returning from the Treasure Trove": (continued) Kouen jumped down from the wagon as did his younger brother. He walked over to the side where Makino was and helped her down by lifting her up and over the side. Riku then jumped out of the back on his own. Placing his and Sojiro's kimono's off to the side so not to get confused with the other things that would be placed in the auction. He walked back over to help them unload as Makino went to unlock and open the door to the storage building."We will need to set prices on all this stuff later, Riku. I still have the list we made as he pick things out. So we won't have to come spend the day here to do this."
Riku walked past her with an arm full as he nodded. "Maybe we can over lunch this weekend? You, me and your brothers," he looked to her brothers. "I'll treat everyone. We can meet at The Emperor's Palace. I've wanted to try that restaurant for a long time now." Kouen looked to Riku as he set his load down and turned to get another. "Don't want to offend you Riku-kun, but can you afford that? That place is pretty pricey. We took our mother there for her birthday last year. We would love to meet you guys there, but we can swing our half of the bill. You don't have to do this."
