Stretching out, Ishida walked outside and held onto the piece of paper with the riddle on it.
"Alright," He studied the riddle again. "Let's get to this...in hopes of finding my cross."
You can tumble in it,
Roll in it,
Burn it,
Animals eat it,
Used to cover floors,
Still used beyond stall doors.
Freshens whatever it is placed on,
Absorbs whatever is poured into it.
What is it?
"Hm." Ishida glanced around him, wondering what he could find. But he found nothing around him.
"Oh dam--ah!"
As he walked, Ishida had tripped over a bail of hay and landed on his face. Studdering, he slowly picked his head up and leaned back. "D-Damn...it...what was--hm?"
Beside him, Ishida found it was a bail of hay that he tripped over. He blinked, "Hay..." He re-read the riddle again.
"Roll in it...burn it...animals eat it..." He continued reading it, to the end, "...Absorbs whatever is poured into it..."
He started to study the hay carefully. "I wonder...."
Ishida started to look through the hay, making sure not to miss not one piece of it. "Can it..."
Then he felt something. A spark, was it? Coincidence? Or...
He saw it.
Under a few pieces of hay, a silver bracelet, with a very familiar symbol to it.
"This..." Ishida slowly took it, as there was a sudden bright blue light that came forth and slowly disappeared.
He slowly breathed, as he placed his cross back on his right wrist, where it belonged. After he did, he stood up.
"I..." Then, his bow came out, letting out that same bright blue light.
He smiled, "Found it."
