Arthur was standing in the "Soul Antiques" just staring at it. He made sure no one was looking and then picked up the shiny metal key on the shelf. He took out one of his own keys and compared the two. The one that the shop had was grey, and his were all dark red, but it still had the same shaped key, and it was the same size and basic design.
He put his own key away and then turned it in his hands, no price tag so he approached the counter and tried to see round the back.
"Um ... excuse me," He asked "Is anyone there?"

Akemi came out, "Yes, is there something I can help you with?" She asked.

"Hi um ..." Arthur gave her a shy smile, he held the key up "Do you know what this is?" He asked her.
"Only ..." He reached into his pocket and took out the other two keys "I got these from my Grandad and are they ... um ... collectors items?" He needed to learn what "Collectors" was in Japanese, maybe she wouldn't understand it in English.

"I don't know what they are." She replied, "But it's for sale, if you want it. I'll even discount it for you, since it seems important."

"Well that depends on how expensive it is," Arthur said with a smile.

"I can't give it to you for nothing, so I'll give you a low price. Ten thousand yen"
(about how much would that be? Do you know offhand?)

~According to the internet it's about $120~ Cross
"Um ..." Arthur rooted through his pockets "Sure, sure ..." He handed her the money and then looked over it again. "Do you know where you got it? Who brought it in?"

(I was off, then. Ok)
"I'm not sure where it originated from, I'm sorry." She replied. She took the money and handed over the key, "Here you are."

~Is it okay for me to do this?~ Cross
"Thankyou very much," Arthur smiled, he went towards the door and then noticed a small missing persons poster, The guy had been missing for a good few weeks. He frowned and tried to read the name.
"Ren ... Ren Nakamura?" He asked, trying to read it aloud.

(No problem, makes sense to me, since Whip wasn't telling them)
Whip walked out of his tea shop and walked towards the man who was looking at Ren's missing poster. Whip was chewing on a pear as he approached, "He should be fine." Whip assured the man.

"Huh ..." Arthur looked at the guy and swept his eyes up and down him "Is he a friend of yours?"

"You could say that." Whip replied, walking away without saying any more.

Arthur looked at the man who'd just walked off and then at the poster. He was tempted to chase after him but instead he put the key inside his rucksack and then moved towards his bike when he stopped.
He went up to the side of the Tea Shop and started inspecting something amazing. A Yamaha R1! He moved his hand over the handlebars, it looked pretty cool, he'd have bought one just like it if the ER5 hadn't been a little bit bust-up and therefore, much cheaper.
He looked into the Tea-Shop and tried to catch the attention of the pear eating man.
"You're bike is handsome!" He smiled and then realised that he'd used the wrong word "No ... cool! You're bike is cool!"

"Thank you." Whip replied, "Now, I have things to do." He said, walking inside.

Arthur walked back to his own bike, put his helmet on and then flipped his visor down. He revved the bike up and then drove off to his next destination.
