Usagi saw Hazumi's smile soft a bit. Oh, I wonder what's wrong? Usagi followed the older woman down the path. This left great. She could remember the last time she was this close with someone. "H-Hazumi, do you have any family? You asked about my grandmother, but I-I don't know about your family. It must be hard being far away from them."

Her smile nearly dropped, before she managed to hang on to it. "Ah... I have a brother," she said quietly and put her hands in her pockets.

"Oh th'at nice. I bet he's a wonderful person." Usagi said, not noticing the smile on Hazumi's face almost drop. Usagi had been looking down at the ground during that time. "I wish I had s-siblings." Usagi looked up and was surprised that they made it to the center of the maze. "Ah, we did it! Isn't that wonderful." Usagi said, not knowing for once she had not stuttered."

She smiled widely and looked around at the center of the maze. "Incredible," she said quietly.
The beauty of the place amazed her. Hazumi walked closer to the tree in the dead center of the maze. Her hand moved up to touch the base of the tree. "I love it here," said the woman, just barely above a whisper.

Usagi gasped in excitement. The way the place was set up, it was like a giant tree was being housed within a single green square. It was beautiful. She felt at peace here. "It's amazing isn't it?" Usagi asked with a smile, her shyness gone.

"Very," said Hazumi.
She looked around the area before turning to her. "Do you duel at all, Miss Usagi?" She asked quietly.

Usagi looked at the woman with a slightly solemn look. "S-sort of. I think the game is fun, but I don't think I'm very good." Usagi went to reach into her pocket a pulled out her deck. She felt an additional weight in her pocket a pulled a pack of cookies. "Oh, I forgot I had these. Would you like one?" Usagi offered.

The woman nodded slightly. "I'd love one," she said before sitting down crosslegged.
She smiled a little and set her backpack down before herself. Hazumi unzipped her backpack, reached and pulled in a small container. "Would you like some onigiri? I bought them before stepping into this maze. I bought eight of them if you wish to share."

Usagi nodded at the gesture and took an onigiri before sitting next to Hazumi. She took a bite and smiled. "It's delicious." the girl commented. She was starting to enjoy this small, unplanned picnic. Usagi then remembered Hazumi asking her if she duel. "Hazumi-san, if you asked if I dueled, does that mean you're a duelist also?"

She smiled and nodded. "Usually it does."
Hazumi slowly began to eat an onigiri from the tupperware container.

Usagi became quiet as she watched Hazumi eat. She then turned to the deck that was in her hands. She wanted to become a better duelist, she did, but she felt that she wasn't good enough. The members of my clan. They're all really strong. I've seen them duel. They always come out on top. But me...I'm the weakest. I-I've got to get stronger. Even if I don't like to duel, I'll do it for the others. she thought.
"Ha-Hazumi-san. Will you...Help me get stronger?" she asked.

Hazumi pulled out her own deck and after finishing her first onigiri and began shuffling quietly. "Do you really want to get stronger...?"

Usagi watched as the woman pulled out her deck and began to shuffle. She really did want to get stronger, really she did. "I-I don't like to duel." Usagi said quietly. She held up her deck and began shuffling just as quietly as Hazumi. "But if I have to duel...To help support my clan, then I'll to it." Usagi finished with a determined expression.

"Should I take out my duel disk as well?" Hazumi asked quietly as she shuffled and looked at her calmly.

"I-I don't know. Would it help me be better?" Usagi asked, looking up at Hazumi with big innocent eyes.
