[When Riko first comes to in the sand, there's a voice in the back of her head asking her why on earth she'd jump into the ocean in the middle of April like that...that was what happened when she met Chika for the first time, wasn't it? Except that happened what feels like years ago now, and she knows for sure that she wasn't anywhere near the beach last time she checked. Not unless she somehow fell asleep on the shore, and that would never happen.
It takes her a moment to get her bearings as she slowly sits up and brushes sand from her face and arms, wincing at the mild cuts and scrapes on her body. Okay...did she almost drown, because she's soaked too. Other than the cuts she doesn't feel injured anywhere else, but she gives herself a minute before she slowly pushes herself to her feet. The lights up ahead seem promising, but the scent of gunpowder does not, and it leads her to first turn around and look down the beach behind her...
Right where someone else, possibly another newcomer or an actual local, happened to be standing right behind her, resulting in a soft collision that makes her squeak with surprise.]
O-oh, I'm sorry!

[An arcade...it both looks similar to and nothing like any arcade Riko's encountered, especially with the robots moving to and fro. She scarcely gets a chance to even come close before a voice echoes in her head, but her immediate thought is that it must have come from the arcade, not from her own mind.
It causes her to freeze and pull back slightly, wrapping one of her arms around her torso. She stays this way for a moment before taking a hesitant step past the threshold, peering inside where the machines flanking the walls blink the brightest.]
