Description: Teresa and Yuuri head out into the deserts of Nevada to help out a town with a Kishin Egg problem.

It hadn't taken them long to track down the Kishin Egg in question. The creature had been terrorizing the people all throughout the town by the time they'd arrived, and he and Teresa had instantly gone into action. It was lucky, really, since she seemed to just know when he was about to just dash off and get himself involved, and when he'd done that, Teresa had dashed after him and reminded him to transform for their battle. Yuuri had done just that without any questions, and while the Kishin Egg had been tough to fight against, their combined powers had eventually given them a victory.

Yuuri hadn't picked up the soul right away after the fight, but had instead gasped in shock as he saw an injured man hiding off in the distance. Leaving the red orb right where Teresa spoke, the young Maou forgot all about it as he jogged over to the man and asked, "How badly are you hurt?"

Glancing back over his shoulder, he peered in worry at Teresa as he called out, "We need to get him to a doctor!"

It was lucky that she didn't voice her thoughts, because Yuuri would have undoubtedly become upset with it. As it was, he comforted himself with the thought that she was safe and okay, and turned back to glance at Teresa while they moved off. The strange box? It only took a second for him to make the connection - a connection that showed on his expression.

"I use it everyday," Yuuri offered as he kept his attention on Teresa. Unlike her, he couldn't remain focused on two things at once, at least most of the time anyway. That was why he began to question her instead of looking around for anybody who might need some help right now. "Why's that?"

Her steps carried her easily around the small village as she contemplated the strange device she had been originally shown but had never entirely figured out. It had seemed a grand waste of time, but the incident with the clothing had reminded her that she needed to adapt to the situation in order to be best prepared. She needed to learn the strange technology of this world.

Her eyes moved around in search of people who might be injured, but most of her attention was on Yuuri walking next to her. "I know how to turn it on and off, but... I should learn more about it. Will you teach me?"

Yuuri hadn't expected that question to come from Teresa at all. She had always been so against technology that he had respected her decision on that. Everyone in Shin Makoku and the human lands did so on a daily basis, so he could appreciate other words that didn't have any.

Yet he was more than happy with her decision as well, since it would make things safer for her here as well!

"Sure! Of course I'll teach you," Yuuri said with a grin. He had been wanting to help her more for a long while now, and he was more than happy to be given such an opportunity! "When would you like to start?"

Teresa had not found it prudent to learn about the communication system of this world. She had always believed that talk was cheap, that actions spoke far more about a person. However, the city was so large that it seemed impossible to keep track of what everyone was doing without some larger system. Perhaps it was alright to learn it.

"I've been shown once when I first arrived, but it was all confusing and overwhelming," she stated without shame. She needed the help, and Yuuri had never made her feel that it was wrong to seek his help. He was always willing and ready to jump at the chance. "Perhaps after this mission if you have the time?"

He looked at her sympathetically when it came to the communication systems. Yuuri couldn't blame her for being confused over it all, since it had all confused him and he came from a world with similar technology! He was more than happy to help her with anything, and especially with something as important as this! That was why he nodded his head enthusiastically.

"I would love to!" Yuuri said with a large smile. Searching for any injured people had fled his mind by this point, as he was too distracted with the thought that she needed any kind of help. "We can head back to the apartment and play around with them."

[of_the_faint_smile]

It seemed to her that, as usual, he was eager to jump to helping her, which was a comforting notion. She was only starting to get used to it, after she had been so self-sufficient in her own world. This one was still rather overwhelming. There were things she would probably never understand.

Glancing around as they moved through the small village, it seemed to be clear and free of threats as well as injured. "Yes, we should head back now that the mission has been completed. Shall we then?"

[a_royal_flush]

There didn't appear to be anything else happening in the town now that they'd taken care of the kishin threat. That was a nice thought, and when Teresa gave her suggestion, the young Maou nodded enthusiastically.

"That sounds great to me," Yuuri said before he began walking ahead of Teresa with renewed vigour in his steps. "Once we get back, I'll start teaching you how to use the communicator!"
