The Inventory
The three neared an intersection, and then a thud came against the side of John's armor. It was Koishi accidentally ramming into John, as she was paying no attention to what was in front of her. The force knocked Koishi back and to the ground, where she rubbed her head.
"Ow." Koishi said as she tried getting herself up.

Sometimes when you're driving down a road, a bug hits your windshield. It's ugly and unpleasant, but you just activate the wipers / cleaning fluid and it's gone in a few seconds. It's just part of driving down the road. You don't dwell on it, because that'd be silly. Bugs aren't worth the time.
You just discard their guts and keep on driving.

Gensokyo - Blowhole | Night
Max had been running through Gensokyo, towards his desired destination. The Blowhole. The location where the Kappa's are mining. Max had been assigned an errand by his boss, however he had only been told to head to the Blowhole and find Yamame. That's all he was told to do. He knew full well that Gensokyo was a dangerous place from what he had heard, and why he was asked to head to the Kappa's mining site is all up to speculation. However Max wanted to fulfill his orders so he had decided to head towards his assigned destination. With his trusty gun the Bell Trigger holstered on his waste, and his reliable Battle Wrench on his belt he had kept running until he finally reached the entrance to the Blowhole. Once there he had began to search for the person named Yamame.
"Hey is anyone by the name of Yamame around? I kind of need to see her!" He called out at the top pf his lungs, as he took a few deep breaths in every other word. Running from the Kappa Village, to the Blowhole is quite an exercise, but nothing he isn't used to.

Kappa Mine - Blowhole - Gensokyo
"You were looking for me?" A peppy voice called from behind Max. Behind Max stood a tomboyish girl wearing a casual khaki pants and black-and-white shirt. Her movements were brisk and energetic, her golden amulet-like necklace bouncing up and down every time she skipped around.

Kappa Mine - Blowhole - Gensokyo
Max jumped as Yamame called out to him from behind. Almost immediately he grabbed his large Wrench as he readied himself. However after hearing that this girl was the one he was looking for he let down his guard as he put away his wrench.
"Oh sorry for that. You kinda startled me! Anyways I was asked to come here because my boss kinda asked me too. However that's all I was told... so I don't know why I was asked to come here."

Kappa Mine - The Dark Blowhole - Gensokyo
"Boss, huh?" Yamame unhinged her bungee cord and swiftly hopped over to a safe platform. It's an amazement how quickly she could navigate up and down the dangerous ledges of the Kappa mines, what with all her tools around. While the Kappas were engineers and mechanics, Yamame had her knack in architecture. So she was always seen carrying heavy ladders and huge protractors around. Her toolbelts slung around her slim waist carried scratch papers, pens, and other doodads including her trusted Swiss Knife that her fan gave her about a year ago. (Said that it was antique, used by the fan's great grandfather in a war against the Germans...) And that's not even mentioning the two melons on her chest that Max didn't have.
Yamame skipped, closing in the distance between her and Max to a dangerous degree, and closely inspected Max and found a little badge, the badge that indicated his service to the Kappas. "Oh so you're the errand boy they sent. Okay, follow me."

Kappa Mine - The Dark Blowhole - Gensokyo
The young mechanic backed up a few steps as Yamame drew closer faster than she should have. However once she was within a safe distance from him he looked at her and was amazed at how... cute and lively she was. It was almost alluring to him as he watched her... melons bounce up and down as she skipped towards him. Though Max quickly shook his head as he looked at Yamame.
"O-Oh I'm sorry... uh yeah I was sent here by the Kappa Village. Mitori kind of sent me here. I don't know why though. All she did was tell me to come here and see you. Do you have any idea why I was sent here?"

Kappa Mine - The Dark Blowhole - Gensokyo
"She probably needed this." Yamame said as she took a path downstairs, then to the left, then down again, then through a ladderway... How long is this gonna go?
Yamame arrived at a deep cave inside the mine, where a vein of bright turquoise ore the size of a pickup truck was being mined by some Kappa miners.
"Jeez, this is a big vein." Yamame commented. "This is the thing Mitori was probably looking for. Tell me, how much can you lift?"

Max looked at Yamame as she went downstairs and into the mine.
"Uhm... Not a whole lot why?" He called down to Yamame as he began proceeding down the stairs as well to see what Yamame was looking for. When he finally went downstairs, and down the ladder he saw the large amount of Turquoise ore. The amount of the ore had surprised Max. It was bigger than most ore chunks he had seen. "Whoa that is a large chunk of ore! I might need to call in Steve if you expect me to lift that..."

The Inventory
"I'm pretty sure she would already know about this place. This place has been here ever since the first time you met us, back when the bridge in the Ancient City collapsed.", John explained to Reimu as he began to look around, trying to find somebody to ask for help.
Just then, John felt something bump against his armor and heard a thud on the ground. John quickly looked over and saw Koishi on the ground. John was surprised to see her, especially since it had been quite some time since John had last seen her.
"Koishi, are you alright?", John asked Koishi in a surprised tone as he held his hand out to help her up.

"Hmm I see." Yamame nodded, not too phased by Max's inability to lift heavy things. "Here, I'll hold it up, you just lead me to where Mitori is."
