Cardfight! Vanguard: The Dark Side of Love

Rated: Mature

Parings: Aichi x Ren, Aichi x Kai

Author's Note: I haven't watched any of season 4, so this might be kind AU. But I'm taking the idea of Aichi being forgotten by everyone still. I don't own any of this or any of the characters in this fanfiction. I also couldn't have done this without my good YouTube friend Elementalherogunman.

Without any futher ado enjoy the story.

Chapter 1: Found & Lost Again

***Kai's P.O.V.***

It's been a good six months since I've been getting the feeling I'm forgetting something important. But no matter how hard I try to remember all I see is white haze. What am I forgetting I kept asking myself.

When I asked everyone else if they were also forgetting something like I was; they all said I was imaging things. No one seemed to remember something wasn't right.

With each passing day that went by the growing frustration kept on growing. I was becoming very antsy and every question become more vexing. I couldn't keep myself from walking around in circles.

I tried many times to walk around the city to see if anything would bring any memories back, but each time nothing seemed to bring anything back.

That was the case until June 6th came around. On that day I found a certain Vanguard card, Buster Blade that card helped clear up some of my hazy memories.

A young boy a little bit shorter than me. With long blue hair with a right bang coming longer than the rest. That's what came back to me has I held the Buster Blade card in my hand.

"What was his name though?" I whispered to no one in particular. I knew the boy I remember that much, but his name slipped past me. When I picked up another Vanguard card, Buster Dark a piece of folded up paper was under it.

It read:

"If someone is reading this then that means no one has any memories of me. Life would be rewritten like I was never there. Maybe that's for the best after all I was always the weakest link in Q4 anyways. The team is only as strong as its weakest link which would be me.

I'm sorry Kai I kept letting you down every time you helped me back up. Kai if you're reading this, please don't come looking for me. The team is a lot better off without someone to hold them back. I'm always burdening everyone with my selfish ideas of wanting to be stronger. Ren was right if I wasn't there to hold everyone else back you could of fought him. It's all my fault.

Why was I born in the first place? I don't regret meeting you, Kai once again. I was actually really happy to have been able to meet you after all these years. I also learned what's it's like to be in love with someone thanks to you, Kai."

P.S. Once you read this Kai burn it I don't want to be found. Good-bye my first and last love.

From: Aichi Sendou

I couldn't stop my hands from shaking as I cried my heart out as I read the note. I've forgotten Aichi the one who taught me how to have fun playing Vanguard again. The one who saved me from the darkness that consumed me when my parents died. He was also the one who opened my eyes to see that I wasn't alone, and that I needed friends to keep me anchored in reality.

"Ai…chi…I'm…so…rr…y…!" I sobbed how could I forget him. Now he's gone for good, and he thinks he's a burden to everyone. That's it's better to continue living without him. That's he's the weakest link in Q4. Why didn't I notice he was always suffering behind that childish smile. Aichi always had a childish smile that was contagious, making everyone around him smile. Aichi always knew how to find the good in people, even those like me who became numb to the world.

It wasn't Aichi's fault no it was my fault for not paying enough attention to his feelings. Now he's gone and he'll never come back. My heart ached as I couldn't do anything to prove to Aichi that he isn't our weakest link. No he wasn't weak at all, in fact he was Q4's strongest member. For he was the one who kept all of us grounded, Aichi…he was our anchor. Now without that anchor who would be the one to keep Q4 together?

For the rest of that month no one saw much of me as I was lost in my own self-pity. I stayed at my house with my parents being dead, no one bothered me Not even Miwa came to visit me.

Over the past few weeks I've read the note Aichi wrote so many times I knew it by heart. Each time I read it, I cried at my mistake that cause him to leave. I couldn't blame him I would of done the same thing if it were me. If only I had stopped Ren from saying it was Aichi's fault. If only I didn't tell him he was our weakest link. Even if it was to give him some motivation to get stronger.

On July 1st I turned on the TV, I found Ultra Rare performing by seeing them again it brought back another memory. It was Aichi, he told me about a certain card shop called Psy that Ultra Rare runs. I took off with that shop in mind, hoping they'll be able to help. I brought both the Buster cards and Aichi's final note with me. When I arrived at the shop I was greeted by Kourin.

"How may I help you Kai?" Kourin asked confused as to why I knew about this place. She was sure she or any of her sisters told me about their card shop before.

"Re…ad…this…plea…se…!" I panted from running all the way here as I held out the note to her. She took it reading just like what it did to me tears fell from her eyes as she finished reading it. She too loved Aichi, but even though she had a crush on him she knew he loved me instead. To her we were perfect for each other, but it took me too long to realize my feelings towards him.

"Aichi how could I forget you?" Kourin asked, trying to wipe way her tears, but more took their place.

"It's been over six months since I knew I was forgetting something very important. On June 6th I found both Buster Blade and Buster Dark, along with that note I found under Buster Dark." I explained

"I see, Aichi is wrong it isn't his fault for any if this. He is neither weak nor his he selfish." Kourin stated softly

"I want, no I need to find him no matter what!" I stated wanting to tell him that he isn't weak, and that Q4 needs him back. But how will Aichi act when I find him when he doesn't want to be found in the first place? That's the real question will he want to come back even after I explain everything to him.

"I'll try searching for him." Kourin said, letting the other two Ultra Rare members read the note. Both of them remembered Aichi, and wanted to help me find him.

"Thank you." I said as Rekka returned the note to me.

"We'll tell you if we find anything." Kourin said as I left heading to Card Capital to get them to remember Aichi as well.
