From her position in the middle of the square Setsuna watched in confusion as Lei was suddenly come upon by an old woman. The woman seemed to give off a loving aura upon the helpless ensign. Setsuna felt sorry for her fellow ensign, but it was not her place to butt in so she waited and watched as the incident played out. The crowd amongst the elder woman and young ensign aimed only to make the scene even greater adding to the embarrassment of Lei.
After a little talking which she could not make out, Lei finally pulled away from the lady disappearing into the crowds. Whether he disappeared out of embarrassment or if this was normal behavior was not something she could tell but nevertheless it was about time that they should be meeting. Looking around she saw no sign of the other marine who was supposed to be coming so she headed off to find Lei.
Sliding through the crowds she put back her marine coat as it got in the way and could easily be knocked off or stolen as she weaved in out of the moving mass of humans. Scanning the bundles of people for Lei's black hair she finally spotted it bobbing back in forth in one of the farther away bundles. Boy could he move fast . . . she quickened her pace slightly pushing through the crowd this in combination with her skinny body allowed her to quickly gain on Lei who continued to move from his position somehow in a direction which always seemed to be away from her.
Finally catching up completely she placed her hand on his shoulder, to turn him around. "Lei . . . stop moving we have to find that other girl. Nali i think . . ." She said, she paused it was odd enough that she was talking for so long to make her think. What was happening, could this be the onset of .. . boredom. She wondered to herself as she waited for Lei to answer her, they were of equal rank so they didn't exactly have to salute each other.
