Hayato had been working on his mother's gadgets, trying to tinker and improve her designs. He didn't have much success, however, he did manage to make the gadgets smaller and more compact than before. While he was at it, he used the left over materials he removed to make a makeshift sheath for his bokken. Though it only only covered the hilt it was able to attach to his belt quite easily. Where he'd grown up you always needed a weapon of some sort. [color=0072bc]"Old habits never die, you never know when you need a weapon for something. Be it for breaking an object standing in my way or self defense..."[/color] Hayato said outloud to himself. He decided to grab his new duel disk to admire it for a bit, which he slightly modified to house his mother's announcer device. Sadly the only voices he could fit in was himself, Yuya and Jack. The button was located at a location he wouldn't press by accident. Slowly, Hayato started to drift off after a long day of tinkering. He had a feeling he should have followed Haas, but he said he was going to work alone and he'd rather not associate himself with the investigation group. Hearing some noise outside his dorm room woke him up from the slumber on his desk. He found it odd to hear people rummaging about all of the sudden and strapped his bokken to his belt, grabbed his new modified duel disk and forgot to remove his safety goggles. After getting his stuff together, he sent Haas a short message over the D-ceiver. [color=0072bc][i]"I'm hearing people getting out of their dorm rooms right now... I thought you'd like to know... also, just a reminder... I'm just providing you with some information. Don't forget, since...[/i]"[/color] Hayato sent the message, then gave a short pause to type another, though much shorter message. "[b][color=0072bc][i]I WORK ALONE.[/i][/color][/b]" After confirming it had been sent, the boy got up and opened the door to his room to go out and see what was happening. Hayate listened to Haas's explanation of what to do and took a moment to think. [color=00aeef]"Well... I think I'll stick with Haas. Someone needs to keep up with him if he ends up running after anyone suspicious... He's surprisingly fast!"[/color] Hayate said to the group, but quickly added something else. [color=00aeef]"Shouldn't we have someone stay behind in the dorms in case anything suspicious happens there? Mom told me the strangest things happen at the most unexpected places."[/color] Hayate gave her thoughts to the group before patting Haas on the shoulder. [color=00aeef]"I'll be counting on you, leader."[/color] Hayate said confidently, tapping her shoes. She's ready to go.
