New York City hadn't changed since the last time Riku had been there. It was still huge and still incredibly crowded...no matter how many times he went to Earth, the sheer number of people living there always amazed him. It wasn't necessarily a bad thing, just strange. Most worlds were so small and empty in comparison.
The entire group was assembled, a number of refugees and Radiant Garden locals included. Sora, he was relieved to see, seemed to be dealing with the location just fine despite his experiences in Tokyo. Even asking to go on the subway...Riku wouldn't have been surprised if soon the boy started running off and getting lost. Or worse. he thought, barely holding back a sigh at the number of possibilities for trouble.
Better make sure he doesn't get introduced to coffee. he thought. Sora of all people being hyped up on caffeine would be impossible to deal with.
"We need a way to pay for it first." Riku replied, his eyes wandering over to the sword still attached to Cloud's back. That couldn't be a good idea, he realized - he knew enough around Earth to know that people generally didn't carry weapons, especially not swords. "Hey Cloud, are you sure bringing that sword along was a good idea?"
He pulled a strand of (now blond) hair out of his eyes, quickly realizing that this trip was either going to end up being fun or completely disastrous.
