Adachi nodded. "One friend. His name is Shadow. He kinda... Watches over me, I guess." He rubbed the back of his head while smiling widely. "So, um, hey? What about some more of those melon things? I could probably try to get some down!"

Haruhi nodded. "He does seem protective of you, but he's also very rude too." She shrugged. "Sure. Or I can climb up and get some more if you want me too. They seem to grow on the trees that look kind of like our palm trees, but if you look closely, the leaves have a purple edge. That's where I found them first, anyway."

Adachi waved his hand. "Heh, I'm the adult! I can do it!" He walked off, staring up at the trees. If he was actually back SOON.... It would be a shock.

Haruhi sat in the cave, waiting for Adachi to get back. She absentmindedly played with her ruined tie, her jacket spread out under her to protect her regular clothes from getting dirty. It was getting dark now, and a light drizzle had started. She really hoped Adachi was okay, even if he was really weird.

Adachi came back nearly an hour later with a bruise forming over one eye and four more of the strange melons. So, he HAD injured himself, but at least it hadn't been TOO bad. He grinned at Haruhi. "Here ya go!"

"Thanks." Haruhi took the fruit and bit into one. "So what took you so long? And how did you get that bruise?"

Adachi touched his head, wincing lightly. "Oh, this? Heh. I... may have fallen from the tree." He waved his hand and his eyes widened. "But -uh- you heard nothing! I'm fine!" He grinned dismissively.

Haruhi furrowed her brows. "You fell from the tree?! Why didn't you just let me go get them?" She pointed at the ground, telling him to sit inside the cave and get out of the rain. "Are you bleeding anywhere?"

Adachi sat, then raised his arms, only showing a bit of stiffness. "No, I don't think I'm bleeding. And, 'cause I'm the adult. I... I should be responsible!"

Haruhi just shrugged. "I'm used to being responsible. I've been taking care of my dad since I was five." She stopped worrying over him then, and returned to her pieces of fruit. If he said he was okay, and she didn't notice any blood, then she didn't really feel anymore need to concern herself over it. As long as he didn't do it again.

Adachi began munching on the fruit. It really was quite tasty. And, he was glad to have someone like Haruhi with him. He was used to be ordered around, what with his senior detective. That guy would've handcuffed Adachi TO his coffee cup if the young assistant had gone off alone again. "So you wanna be a lawyer Haruhi? What kind of cases?"

Haruhi nodded, looking down at the stone floor. "Yes, like my mom. She worked as an attorney for murder cases, so that's what I'm hoping to do as well."

Adachi smiled. "Murder cases are fun!" Then he paused. "Well, not fun in the literal sense. But... That's what I investigated, I mean. We were tracking a serial killer, but I was on vacation...."
