Rukongai, District 61: Flashes of the Past (Open)

Lee just simply let himself watch as the two had there own touching moment and he was not going to intrude. He was not on that tight of a schedule so a time for goodbye wouldn't hurt anything and it would make Ashe's resolve more absolute for the time. He watched as she turned around and met his own gaze he raised his hands up and clapped them together as he nodded "Well then, we must be off."

He turned toward the old lady and bowed once again as he spoke to her "Thank you again for taking care of her." He then turned and walked outside and onto the porch and waited for Ashe to join him.

Ashe looked up as Lee clapped his hands and nodded, not looking back at the old woman as she followed the soul reaper outside. She glanced at the umbrella but did not take it, the rain had lessened and besides she couldn't take the only umbrella in the house. So she stepped out into the street and blinked, looking up for a moment at the drops of water coming down on her. The blonde looked back at Lee and asked, "So...which way?"

Lee watched as Ashe continued and out into the rain as he simply watched. He watched as she just stood there and waited for more than a moment before she spoke. He then slowly let himself take a few steps out into the rain himself and stood behind her as he looked around. He then leaned down and let an arm sweep under her knees and the other arm held her up against her back as he then stood with her in his arms.

"I think we will get there much faster this way..." And with a light lean forward, he used his Hohō and flickered into nothing as he was gone with her to meet this Bane.

Ashe was wondering why Lee was looking around as if he didn't want to be seen when she was suddenly sweeped off her feet to be carried. Immediately a blush came to her face, but she was further distracted when he spoke of getting there faster 'this' way. Was she that slow? She wondered, but then most of her thoughts were focused on holding on for dear life as she was whisked out of the Rukongai. Ashe just hoped that she would make him proud in doing this for him.
