Gozu turns to walk over to find the desk. "I guess we should each buy a ticket, but let's say we lose? What do we do?" Gozu asks as Shiro and him make their way to the desk to buy a lottery ticket. Let's hop luck is on our side.

Shiro follows Gozu. "I guess we buy it from the winner. The people here don't know how valuable it is, after all. To them, it's probably just some trinket." He gets in the back of a long line, waiting to buy his ticket.

Gozu gets in line ahead of Shiro and waits. They make small talk as they make their way to the desk. When they finally make it Gozu places 100 zenie on the table and gets his ticket. "Y'all just barely made it. Only 5 minutes until the drawing."

Shiro's still grinning after a joke about Gozu's and Julia's relationship as he buys his own ticket. "I still don't believe there's nothing going on between you, official or not."

Gozu smiles and shakes his head. "Why does everyone who sees us just assumes something is going on between us?" Gozu asks waiting for lottery to begin. "What about you and Ava? Seems like I remember her being mad at you for some reason last year."

Shiro shrugs. "Dunno, just how close you two are, I guess." He then frowns when Gozu brought up Ava. "I haven't seen her in a year. And I never did find out why she was so mad at me." He looks up, as if trying to figure it out, while a voice over a microphone said, "The drawing for the lottery is about to begin!"

Gozu is about to say something but is interrupted by the announcement that the lottery is going to start. Alright come one. Luck please be on our side. There is a long dramatic pause as the announcer milks the moment playing with the crowd.

"Our prize this week is..." The announcer paused for dramatic effect, while a drumroll played in the background. Suddenly, the curtain on top of the tower was pulled off, revealing the seven star ball. "THIS!! Yes, ladies and gentlemen, a truly fabulous good luck charm, sure to increase your winnings at Jacustra's Casino!"
If that thing's lucky, I'm a carrot. Shiro mentally told Gozu, since he wouldn't've been heard over the crowd.

Gozu chuckles as he looks back at Shiro. Well you know dress you in orange die your green. You could be a carrot. Gozu thinks with a chuckle as a drum roll plays as the announcer takes another minute to milk this for all it's worth.

Shiro glared at Gozu as the numbers were called. "Our first number is..." Another dramatic pause and drumroll. "...21!"

Gozu just grins at Shiro and turns his attention back to the announcer and he looks at his ticket. Gozu smiles when he hears the first number. YES! Gozu thinks and Shiro will hear him. "Next number is...25!" The announcer says.

Shiro ignores Gozu's mind-ear hurting 'yell' and listens to the next number. "The next number is... 32!" That's three down, two more to go...

Gozu has a huge smile as all three numbers so far have matched his ticket. How are you doing Shiro? So far I'm three for three Gozu thinks as the announcer delivers the next number. "Next number is.....7!"

Shiro grins as he hears the fourth number. Four for four, that just leaves this next one... "And finally," The announcer calls, "our last number...42!" NO!

There are groans from all the crowd that had just lost it. Gozu pumps his fist in the air. He turns to Shiro. "I WON! I WON!" Gozu flies up to the desk and hands the man his ticket. The announcer checks his ticket over and announces to the crowd. "He won!"

Some of the crowd claps as they file out to gamble or get a happy ending from a dancer. The announcer gives Gozu the dragonball. "There you go sir you just one a good luck charm." Gozu thanks the man and flies back over to Shiro.

He shows Shiro the ball before putting it in his pocket. "Alright Shiro lets go before I get jumped by more prostitutes." Gozu says with a chuckle as him and Shiro leave the casino and go out to the streets.

Shiro gives Gozu the capsule containing his ship and they fly off to a place where they can use it talking about how lucky they were that one of them got the winning ticket. They come to place and Gozu throws the capsule.

They get in the ship and Gozu just presses the blast off button thinking that he'll set a course later. The ship lifts off the ground and heads into space towards nowhere cause no course had been set.
