Utterly Confused -:{Finished}:-

[RyuSeiko, Yukio]

The city, noisy and very confusing. Especially to a man who hadn't even been in one before; and only in the country. So many people lived and went around it gave him a head ache. "Sure... come to the city and have fun he says... oh no... Damn it is confusing here." he said aloud as he weaved in an out repeatedly. Crowds and crowds were everywhere, it gave him motion sickness a little. The country side of Kyoto was less confusing than this was, he looked at all the signs and began to feel like a mouse in some maze that wanted out and the only way was the way he came. Which he had no idea how or where to go. And also he'd forgot his Zanbatõ back a mile from the area he came in.

He was annoyed but somewhat thankfully to his stupidity, people didn't stare when he didn't have it. His annoyance came from forgetting since he may need it but he'd rather use his fists for now. He didn't want to fight he just wanted out of the noisy and confusing place.

Sean was on his way to work--he was always on his way to work, walking down the bustling streets of London. It was still daylight out, and there were people on corners pausing for tea. But he wasn't in the mood for any bloody tea. He wanted some good old rum.

He had shaven himself clean from the incident at the apartment. Still feeling like he was helpless in a world that was beyond his control.

At a corner, he instinctively paused--there was some odd fellow in oriental dress on the corner, looking around like a deer in headlights. Perhaps the man was a tourist of some sort. He hated them. They made him nervous, like he was on display in a case called London. This was something that he had always struggled with, and it was very hard for him to not develop discrminative traits at the hands of foreigners; they were always touching, changing things, commenting, about their everyday lives. This wasn't the United States. When you didn't have something complimentary to say, you shut yer gob and stay bloody quiet. But, no, because they were paying money...

He forced himself to look away from the youth moving through the crowd. He had to go to work. He was always on his way to work.

[RyuSeiko, Yukio]

Yukio was confused till he saw someone close by but he seemed startled to see him. He figured it was the way he dressed, why hell he was from Kyoto and this was how he liked to look. He watched as he walked off as if he was uncomftereable, he did need help and maybe the guy could at least give him directs out of there. He then quickly walked over to the man and tapped him on the shoulder and said, "Hey, can you help me. I'm lost and this place is confusing..." he then kept pace just to make sure if the guy would run for it or stop suddenly he'd be able to also.

[Sean Colton]

Sean froze when he felt the tap on his shoulder. He knew that it was the tourist before he even turned around. He always had that kind a luck. Always. He shouldn't have looked over at the bastard in the first place...

He hated being touched by people who didn't know him or didn't have permission. It was something that had always irked him. He pulled away from the man's touch as he turned, looking the dark haired lad in the eye.

"Right. I assume you're a tourist. What do you need help with?" Despite his qualms with tourism, he was quite polite by nature, simply because information came more quickly if you were right nice about it...except for certain crowds. He found himself slowly smoothing his accent from his speech, although this traveler had a thick one of his own.

[RyuSeiko, Yukio]

Yukio was surprised at how he acted. Putting on an act of kindness, but he didn't care. As long as he got directions out of there. He then stuck his hands into his pants' pockets and answered, "Yeah... I guess I am sort of... I am lost in this crazy place. And I am trying to find my way out again.... 'Cept that is hard to do here..." he waited for an answer. He knew it was kind of snobby to ask someone about how to get out of there but he needed to be helped right then.

[Sean Colton]

Sean sighed, running his hands through his long, red hair. There was something about this traveler that was..."off", and he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

"Well, mate, you'll have to tell me where it is that you're going for me to tell you which way to go. Are you trying to leave London? Or are you looking for a particularly hotel or something of the like? An airport? I need an idea of where you're headed."

[RyuSeiko, Yukio]

London... man was he out there... BIG TIME. He half smiled, "I am trying to leave... I entered somewhat near the country side..." he crossed his arms. What he just said did not have much information, but he really could not remember any landmarks and such. How annoying but it was mostly fault to his confusion and head ache.

[Sean Colton]

...quite a head on this foreigner's shoulders.

Sean smiled kindly. Well, the best way to the countryside is over near Ireland, but you've got quite a journey if you're going in that direction...If you don't know where you're coming from, do you know where you're going? You can head downtown if you need a place to spend the night, though...

[RyuSeiko, Yukio]

Yukio sighed and noded, "Not sure where I am just going everywhere I can. I am sightseeing." he then looked around. The Brit's accent was kind of annoying but it was new so he'd probably get used to it soon. Which he hopped so, sometimes he had to guess on what he said, "And I'd stay here but I am not sure if they take Yen, the currency of my country. Which is all I have for now."

[Sean Colton]

Sean sighed again. There was a foreigner with no currency??

Rubbing a palm across his face to make it known that he was annoyed, the Brit reached into his pocket and pulled out a twenty euro bill. He knew that he was being generous; he did not even spare that much for the homeless, but if those twenty euros could help him get away from this clown then so be it. "This should be able to help you out a little, although I suggest going to the international exchange on the other side of town if you want to translate your coinage," he said. "That bill there should be more than enough to get you a cab ride to that place. I hope it's useful."

Pausing, Sean asked, "Are you sure you're lost? Did you come here looking for anything in particular?" This fellow was strange indeed, and Sean was gearing his thoughts toward the idea of this bloke being...weird. Different. Perhaps someone who had come into contact with one of the creatures that he had seen from before...

[RyuSeiko, Yukio]

Yukio listened to Sean and sighed, "Yeah I am lost... I was looking for Westminester or somehting. But I can't find it here. Thank goodness I did not bring my blade here or I'd be in bigger trouble...." he was more talking to himself than answering Sean but still...

[Sean Colton]

Although the visitor spoke in low tones, Sean heard the word "Westminster" and actually had some well thought out directions for the fellow.

"With the money that I'm giving you, ride a double decker bus. You'll know what they are because they have two levels, one on the roof. They're always bright red. What I've given you should be enough. That bus always runs to Westminster. It's a very famous place. Most people go there to look at the cathedrals. Hopefully, that will be enough direction so that you won't get lost. Did you understand?"

[RyuSeiko, Yukio]

Yokio listened. He then sighed, "Yeah I get it. Cathedrals? Well I guess I could see that... who knows what cool things..." his words drifted off as he began to think. He was trying to figure out what to do now.

[Sean Colton]

Sean smiled. "That's the ticket. There are lots of things to see here. Enjoy the ride before you get to your destination. I hope that I was able to help..."

Sean secretly wanted to follow the bloke there, but he had already been annoyed enough by this encounter and he was not particularly fond of those who were foreigners. "I suppose now would be a good time to bid you adieu," he said, bowing in a polite fashion before turning to walk away.

[RyuSeiko, Yukio]

Yukio smiled. He nodded politely to Sean, thanking him also, "Yeah might as well and go myself." he then turned to go. Hands in his pockets and just humming quietly. He was looking for a buss. But he'd find it. But first he was going to explore. But who knew what he'd see.
