Aiden shrugged. "I play music, hang out on rooftops, go to Freeds, the amusement park's pretty fun too even if none of the rides work anymore." He gave a small grin and began moving for the exit, pretty sure Locke would follow him. He'd part ways with the Tora after they got outside, any later and he'd feel pretty trapped. That never turned out well.

Locke followed Aiden toward the door, her mind suddenly concentrated on the aforementioned amusement park.
"I heard that someone fixed the carousel," she speculated. "I wonder who did it. Maybe some sort of mysterious Ancient Gear enthusiast?" The thought made her laugh; it brought forth an image of some blonde guy in pink ruffles tinkering away at the broken machine, muttering things in an androgynous voice.

He hadn't heard. "Really?" He asked, opening the door and holding it for Locke. His eyebrow was raised in interest. "I'll have to go check see for myself then. Maybe whoever it was got the roller coaster working too." It probably would have been his favorite if it was still running, thrills were fun and you could only ride an indoor roller coaster so many times. Beside, the Ancient Gear Amusement Park had much more room to use so it was much MUCH bigger.

Locke contemplated Aiden's mention of the roller coaster as she walked out of the door. Thrill was all fine and good, but the albino got enough of that from roof-jumping and fighting. She felt the need to divulge something else about her last expedition to the abandoned park; something that she thought the Ookami would find interesting.
"Someone's also been hanging out at the House of Mirrors," the Brit remarked. "I went roof-jumping there, and I found a Rainbow Dark Dragon card. Oh, and this, too." The albino fished around in her trench coat's inside pocket and retrieved a sterling silver necklace on a long, thin chain. The charm looked like someone had used Polymerization on a question mark, but had forgotten to fuse it with anything. "I'm not much one for jewelry, but this is pretty interesting, don't you think?"

Aiden stopped dead and stared at the glinting silver pendant. A moment passed before his arm shot out and he snatched the silver necklace from Locke's grasp. "This is mom's necklace..." He muttered, turning it over carefully in his hand. "How did it wind up at the park..." He thought it had still been in the jewlery box in his parent's room. Granted, he hadn't gone to check recently, but he knew Jack wouldn't touch it out of respect and Tekka was never allowed in the room anyway.
Of course, no one was home to keep Tekka out of there...
And of course, Tekka rarely paid attention to a rule...
And of course, if something was forbidden, it made taking it all the sweeter...
The pieces clicked together quickly, and Aiden turned on his heel to go find the blond that was his sister and beat the thieving shit out of her.

Locke stood there for a moment, wide-eyed, and then she gave chase, catching up to Aiden quickly. The albino stood in front of him, arms akimbo.
"Anyone ever tell you that it's rude to leave a conversation like that?" she asked with a smirk. Now was the time for smart-assery, before the Ookami became a war machine and tuned out anything the tall Tora said. "Just where are you going? If that was your mum's, then who d'you suppose the Rainbow Dark Dragon belonged to?"

"In this order: Yes, to find my sister and kick the shit out of her, and I don't know and don't care." Was Aiden's reply as he sidestepped the Tora. Annoyance at her pursuit coupling with his already rising anger to create a very VERY short fuse. If Locke wasn't careful she'd have a fist hitting her face at around forty miles an hour.

"Hmph!" Locke replied, pursing her lips and folding her arms over her sizable chest. "Well, if that's how you'll have it, then I'd best take my leave." Without another word, the albino was several stories in the air, hopping from one side of the street to the other on the rooftops. If Aiden didn't want to talk this out, she'd deal with him his way... later.

Aiden waited until Locke was out of sight before breaking into a run. The necklace grasped tightly between his fingers as he dashed for the Amusement Park. Hopefully more could be found out by visiting the House of Mirrors.
