Quin woke up hours after Skylar left him behind in South city, he has no idea what to do now considering how Skylar left him for 'his own safety' and what not. So much for honoring his duty as a knight to ensure her name is cleared. As he got up he contemplated on why she left him there, perhaps she thought it would be good for him to learn more about society on his own? Well as a knight he's not one to turn down a challenge so he decided he may as well try. Though adapting to modern society means adapting to modern values. So he stood up and walked out of the alleyway he got left in.
Then he heard voices around him saying things like "oh that guy does realize the anime convention ended yesterday right?" "Wait, isn't he that guy from the contest?" "Yeah heard he actually made it far with that realistic looking costume he's wearing" "and the accent." "yeah can't forget that I don't know he does it...but he's good." "But why is he still wearing it?" these were all things they said as they witnessed him walk on the sidewalk while wearing his full knight armor. "not exactly the most shining of armor huh?" he heard a woman say as if mocking him. As it is he was simply listening to their speech patterns to try and understand modern sayings and accents. Unfortunately, it's actually harder than one would think....

Quin wandered the streets...still in his armor while getting strange looks towards him. Eventually, he walked into an Alleyway. He ran into a group of 5 thugs surrounding a woman...His eyes narrowed as he approached them. "Step away from thee lady gentlemen." he warned while having his hand on the hilt of his sword. The men turned and faced him, and started laughing. "What the hell are you supposed to be? some weird cosplayer freak?" the 2nd one continued with "Hey isn't that guy from the convention yesterday?" the next one laughed "yeah, he is." the 4th one said. "hey calm down Sir Quin, we're just having fun with this chick here ain't that right?" the 5th one just stayed silent. The woman stared about frightened and now worried about him. He glanced at the woman.
"Worry not young lady, I wilst handle these foul men." he calmed her with his words as he approached them. The men surrounded him, ready to take him down. He narrowed his eyes and brought out his sword, which was actually real to the 5 men's surprise. "playin for real eh punk? alright then..." he wondered why he couldn't sense their powerlevels for a moment before suddenly he felt pain and his face on the ground. He did a spin and tripped the man with his leg. He got up fast and shield bashed the guy knocking him back.
The man rushed him and Quin used iron flesh to block the blow from the guy's fist with his shield. The men were too busy watching to notice that the lady got away. In the end, Quin was left on the ground on his back. The 1st guy noticed the lady got away. "Dammit, the chick got away." the others cursed and began walking off, the last one did one last kick at Quin's side making him grunt slightly. "That was for the fun dumbass haha" the 3rd guy who had fought him said before leaving with the others. The 5th one glanced at him before leaving. 10 minutes later the woman came back and dragged Quin's heavy self to her place to help him out.

Quin got up and saw that he was on a bed, with his armor not on him. He quickly glanced around the room looking for it with his blue eyes. He found the armor off to the side just sitting on the ground looking cleaner now. He sighed in relief and got up from the bed feeling that he was still wearing the cloth he always wore under the armor. Which was a simple brown shirt and brown pants, he saw some neatly stacked cloth on a soft bench in the room. He walked over to it and picked up the shirt. Looking at it, he saw that the shirt had a dragon symbol on it. He supposed that with his affinity for fire that it made sense, but, these were clean clothes so how was he supposed to get clean?
The woman he saved walked into the room and saw him looking at the clothes. "I see you're up." Quin turned and looked at her with his blue eyes, she gained a slight patch of red on her cheeks which made Quin wonder if she was okay. "I noticed thine new clean cloth, but I'm afraid that I know not how one gets clean in tis era." the patch of red left her cheeks as she raised an eyebrow in surprise and confusion. "Era? The hell does that-, ah whatever." she groaned in annoyance and wrote instructions and handed him the paper. He looked at it and raised an eyebrow as he read. "my lord tis modern age is strange." he mumbled as he picked up the new clothes and walked into the bathroom.
He took the shower and was now for the first time in 1200 years, clean. He put on the modern clothes and placed the old clothes in a pouch held by his armor. He felt odd in these new clothes, yes the dragon symbol was fitting in a way but, he had to wonder why people of this age put pictures on their clothes. It struck him as odd but he decided not to think about it much. He noticed a room with a warning sign on it, she told him that it was a gravity chamber that the old owner of the place left behind for whatever reason. He asked what grav chamber was and she said she used it to float around in Zero G, and that others used it for intense training.
She showed him the room and taught him how it works by activating Zero Gravity. Zero Gravity was a rather odd experience for him as he didn't need ki to fly. He asked what intense training others use it for and she said that they make the gravity go above 1. She put the gravity back to normal and left the grav chamber. He pressed a few buttons and was now in 2x gravity. He wasn't in his armor so it wasn't all that bad to him but there certainly was an extra weight. He understood what she meant by Gravity now, and he could understand how it could be used for training. He put the gravity to 4x which was double the weight of his armor and started training in it for an hour before turning it off. He came out of the chamber and gave his thanks before putting on his armor and blade and waving goodbye to her.

Quin walks the streets in his armor and spots a tall brown haired man, the guy had a stache and beard that appeared to be growing in. The guy had brown eyes as well and was wearing a light brown trench coat and a white button up shirt. He seemed to recognize him. "Yo Quin, it's been awhile, buddy..." the man said with a grin on his face as he walked up to him. "I'm guessing you still need help fitting in don't ya?" he asked looking at him. Quin blinked under his helmet, this guy's voice was familiar, the fact he knows his name also caught his attention.
He took a guess "Art thou Sadahiko?" Quin asked the man, who nodded in agreement. "It's is good to see thee again," Quin started with a happy smile on his face. "Come on Quin, we're going to my place," Sadahiko told him, Quin followed the Samurai to his place, Sadahiko opened the door. "Come on in Quin, we need to get you learning the modern dialect." The taller of them stated. Quin went inside, the door closed behind them. They sat at a table, Quin took off his helmet. "Ah good, you don't got the face of a hollow right now," Sadahiko commented with a smile. The Samurai handed the knight a book. "You don't have to try it now but it will come in handy later," Sadahiko told him. Quin nodded in understanding.

Quin and Sadahiko were still sitting at the table. They were watching the TV and saw that apparently the river, 2 public pools and the water supply of a city block got poisoned last night resulting in many deaths. Both undead frowned as they listened to this. Sadahiko had informed Quin as to what the TV was for and for awhile Quin was left rather fascinated by it, but now he intends to make use of it to learn what is going on in the world. "Quin, you've fought enemies that are too strong for you right?" The samurai asked with a serious tone.
"Aye, I hath done so, but this one hath failed to succeed thus far." Quin replied with a somber tone. Sadahiko pulled up a map on his labtop, circled a general location and turned the labtop to have it face Quin. "Do you see this body of water Quin?" Sadahiko asked Quin nodded as he looked at it. "Aye, I see it. Is there perhaps something you would hath this one approach?" The knight asked with curiosity in his voice. Sadahiko grinned and had a challenging glint in his eyes. "There is a rumor I once heard along those coastlines that in those waters, is an island." he let the words sit to let Quin comprehend it.
"Tis island hath something?" Quin asked with a raised eyebrow. Sadahiko continued to smile. "Yep, it is said that the island has a master of martial arts staying on the island. It's actually folklore of sorts but it is said that in a pink house on a lone island, the turtle hermit waits, ready to take on any students who pass his test." He explained. Quin raised the other eyebrow "Turtle Hermit...tis shalt be a fascinating journey!" Quin declared as he got up and put his helmet back on. He walked to the door and opened it. "I thank thee for thy information Sir Sadahiko, may we meet again one day my friend." He left the building and began walking along the streets.
Quin decided to fly there, so he floated into the air and flew through the city being careful not to smash through any buildings or any flying vehicles. He eventually left the main city and came through the suburban area outside the city. He eventually got passed the park and got to the entrance to the city outskirts. He passed that and flew above the trees, watching the area around him with wonder. Eventually, the forest ended and he entered grasslands. He could see the beach on the horizon. After a minute of travel, he got to the beach and landed on the sand, and looked to the waters in front of him. He would meet with this...Turtle Hermit and learn what the man has to teach him.
