Deal with the men.

It was the least Shiki could do with the information she had gotten from him. She asked him for the last location, and he had mentioned some restaurant. Seeing as it wasn't far, she arrived rather quickly but realized that she had forgotten to ask him about their looks. Knowing that he probably didn't move very far, she went back and asked him for their looks, but wasn't too surprised when he had forgotten their appearances too. They must've knocked him pretty bad.

So instead, an impromptu plan was made. Both Shiki and the guy would go out together at the restaurant and wait. Supposedly, seeing him and another girl would attract the two same men. If Shiki played her part well, she'd let them take her somewhere private while he submissively allows them to take her. Once they were behind the restaurant or something, she'd give them quite the beating.

So, the two waited inside. While the guy ordered an occasion soda or something, Shiki would get vanilla ice cream or water. At the very least, he did offer to pay, although he did seem concerned with how she was only interested in ice cream or water, and nothing else. It wasn't that Shiki didn't eat other foods, it's just that she preferred her desserts, for some odd reason.

She was about to call it off about nearly an hour in when two men entered the Restaurant. Judging from how the man reacted, these must've been the guys. The duo went around from table to table, hitting on girls and trying to get some of them to go with them, although most of the girls stayed by their lover's side. However, their chuckling and smiling expressions, and their flushed pink faces were giving their partners good concern their love may not last forever. Shiki and the guy waited as the duo came to their table, closing it in from both sides, preventing them from getting up and leaving.

"Well, well~" One of the men approached, placing an arm on the seat as he leaned in towards the guy they had beat up earlier. "Guess who's back, and with a different girl too. We should tell your lady before you're not quite faithful, although I guess that doesn't matter to her anyways."

"She's not my girlfriend, but my friend, guys..." He weakly says. As he continued to drink, he watched as one of the men placed a hand on Shiki's shoulders.

"Come on babe, ditch this loser and come with me. His lover before you did. Plus, he can't even fight to defend himself. What makes you think he's the guy for you if he can't protect you?"

Shiki took a sip, as she set her cup down. "...You're right." Standing up, she placed both hands in her pockets. "Get me away from this loser."

The men seemed quite pleased with her answer, as they chuckled to themselves. "Man, that's such a good answer! You suck dude! Just go home and hang out by yourself! Or y'know, keep bringing girls for us to pleasure!" They laughed as they carried Shiki out with them. She didn't look back, but she could tell that even if this was meant to happen, he was probably quite hurt.

They walked out, going behind into some alley where they wouldn't be seen, or interrupted. Now that they were far enough, Shiki had a chance to do something. They were coming up against a dead end anyways..
