Chapter 1: "Heartfelt Farewell."
The young hero felt he was trapped in an eternal darkness with no path to escape. He felt numb and anxious as he could hear angry voices shouting around him.
"What kind of a hero are you!?"
"You were supposed to protect us!"
"You call yourself a hero? You tried to hurt your friends!"
"Don't come near us, you monster!"
Boboiboy covered his ears, trying to block out the angry voices.
Suddenly, the memories came flashing in his mind, the painful memory where he couldn't control his powers.
His emotions were in a whirl; he felt so angry yet confused and he was so stressed that-
"I'm definitely more awesome than you!" Boboibot's cocky voice echoed in his mind.
He wanted to forget everything.

Boboiboy jolted up awake when something wet was splashed over his head. He sat up in shock and gasped for air. After he managed to catch his breath, he turned to see his yellow robot, Ochobot holding an empty bucket.
"Uh... You almost turned into Boboiboy Fire… again…" Ochobot explained, his voice sounded sad.
Boboiboy looked at him, shocked. The boy quickly looked away, ashamed of himself for almost changing into Boboiboy Fire.
"You should relax, Boboiboy. Don't stress yourself." Ochobot floated near his friend and gently patted his back.
"It's dinner time. Are you going to come downstairs to eat or should I bring the food to your room?" Ochobot offered when Boboiboy fell silent. The robot hoped that Boboiboy would feel better if he ate but the boy remained mute and refuse to even look at Ochobot.
Ochobot immediately understood Boboiboy's condition and heaved a sighed. Then, the yellow sphere flew out from the room to give Boboiboy some space to recollect his thoughts.
After Ochobot left, the elemental hero stood up from his bed and changed his wet clothes into dry ones. He took a seat by the window; staring outside the gloomy grey sky.
A week have passed yet Boboiboy refuse to go out nor talk; he skipped school, skipped his meal and refuse to meet anyone including his friends.
He didn't have the guts to face the people dear to him when his thoughts were preoccupied with the fact that he – the suppose hero of Rintis Island – was actually a fire breathing monster.
Boboiboy Fire.
That was himself.
The boy who had caused the fire incident around Rintis Island for the past few months.
The boy who almost burned his own friends.
The boy who couldn't even control his fire powers.
He could still remember the fear looks from the citizen and his friends when he changed into Boboiboy Fire. How they back away from him like he was some kind of a disease. A pang of guilt struck Boboiboy in the stomach as he remembered that he nearly burned them alive.
*This is all his fault!* Boboiboy growled angrily as an image of a certain robot flash in his mind.
The claimed new hero called Boboibot, who was an exact replica of himself. Except the fact that Boboibot was a handmade robot build by the box-headed alien, Adu Du.
Boboiboy blamed it entirely on Boboibot for messing with his emotions.
But…
No matter how much he wanted to put the blame on the orange robot.
It wouldn't change the fact that people around him still prefer to have Boboibot's 'hero service' than himself.
Boboiboy looked at his powerband with a pained expression.
He was no hero.
He was a monster.
And monsters like him don't belong in a place like Rintis Island.
.w.
Tok Aba sighed heavily as he stared at the food on the table. Ochobot was kind enough to cook dinner for the grandfather and his grandson but sadly his grandson refuse to have dinner together.
For a week, Tok Aba with Ochobot and Boboiboy's friends tried to get the boy out from his room, unfortunately the stubborn boy locked himself and gave them the silent treatment. Tok Aba felt he was a useless grandfather ever because he couldn't cheer his grandson up.
"Atok? Aren't you going to eat?" Ochobot lightly patted his shoulders. Tok Aba snapped out from his thought and forced up a smile, he didn't have the appetite to eat but he didn't want to disappoint in loyal worker.
As Tok Aba began to eat, a voice called out to him.
"Atok."
Tok Aba turned towards the source of the voice and saw his grandson standing near the kitchen's door.
"Boboiboy. What's wrong?" Tok Aba was relief to finally see that his grandson was out from his room but felt odd by the emotionless look on Boboiboy's face.
Boboiboy stared at his grandfather with a blank expression.
"There's something I want to tell you, Atok."
.w.
Yaya sat on the rooftop of her house, gazing up the night sky that was filled with beautiful bright stars. Usually, stargazing would help Yaya to relax from all the duty she has to accomplish like her prefect duty and super hero duty. Unfortunately, that night her mind was preoccupied with the events that had happened for the last few weeks.
From the mysterious fire incident to the unravel of the culprit. To make it worse, the appearance of the 'new hero' named Boboibot. Yaya was pretty mad at Adu Du making Boboiboy look bad in front of the other citizen and she couldn't help but to feel guilty not being able to do anything about it.
Sure, she could just beat the living daylight out of Adu Du but that would be very risky now that Adu Du has Boboibot with him.
If Boboibot can beat Boboiboy, then there's a 95% chance the robot could beat her too.
The cold night breeze made Yaya sigh in contentment and the girl decided to fly around the Island to take some fresh air.
Yaya flew over the railway station and unconsciously her lips curled up to a smile as she reminiscence the memory where she, Ying and Gopal went to that same station to bade Boboiboy farewell. That particular memory happened about a year ago when Boboiboy left Rintis Island because the school holiday was over.
The pink girl chuckled as she remembered how Gopal would always cling onto Boboiboy like a child despite him being the oldest one of the group. Although Gopal was an annoyance to everyone but Yaya knew all of her friends still like being with Gopal, and yeah even Fang too.
Yaya was about to head home but stopped when her eyes caught a familiar figure at the railway station.
The girl with gravity manipulation stopped and floated mid-air, she squinted her eyes to get a clear look at the person.
*That's Boboiboy!* Yaya thought and lowered herself to the ground. When she safely landed on the platform, she ran towards the young hero.
"Boboiboy!" Yaya shouted to get the boy's attention and she caught the sight of a luggage beside him.
The said boy turned around and stared at Yaya with an emotionless look.
"Oh, hey Yaya."
Yay felt something was amiss about Boboiboy yet she couldn't detect what it was. She looked at him in concern. "What are you doing here?"
Boboiboy gave Yaya a bored look and patted his luggage. "I'm leaving."
Yaya was shocked by his answer and she took a step forward towards him. "What do you mean you're leaving!?"
"Rintis Island doesn't need me anymore. I'm going back home." Boboiboy replied with a nonchalant shrug.
"You can't just leave! What about Tok Aba?" Yaya argued.
"Ochobot will take care of Tok Aba for me."
"What about us? Your friends!"
"You guys are better off without me."
Yaya was stunned at the boy's behaviour. The elemental boy replied so casually like he doesn't even care anymore – or rather he doesn't care about her and his friends, Yaya's heart ache by Boboiboy's sudden change in attitude.
"Attention passengers, the last train to Sentosa City will arrive shortly. Please stand behind the yellow line and wait until the train have come to a complete stop." An announcement came from the speaker caught the two kids attention. Yaya panicked at the thought of Boboiboy leaving Rintis Island.
"You don't have to leave. We need you." Yaya tried to reasoned, staring straight into Boboiboy's eyes.
"Please don't go, Boboiboy." Yaya pleaded, tears pooled in her eyes.
Yaya wasn't sad just because Boboiboy wanted to leave. She was sad because she thought she have failed being a friend to him.
A friend should help each other through thick and thin, but now Boboiboy wanted to leave and Yaya felt it might have been her fault.
The boy let out an exasperate sigh and shot Yaya a tired look while rubbing his temple.
"Now I understand why that knucklehead was so against of this decision." Boboiboy scoffed, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
Yaya was confuse. What did Boboiboy meant by that? More importantly, why was he acting so different? He's not his usual self. The Boboiboy she knew was a strong-willed hero who stood up to any hardships.
But the Boboiboy in front of her now was a coward who wants to run away.
The train finally arrived and the door automatically slide opened. A few people walked out and Yaya silently prayed in her heart that Boboiboy would change his mind.
Unfortunately, her hope shattered when she saw Boboiboy picking up his luggage and walked into the train.
*Please. This must be a dream. Boboiboy can't leave..* Yaya thought in despair.
"Goodbye, Yaya." Boboiboy gave a small smile before the train door closed.
For a slight moment, Yaya swore she saw a flash of Boboiboy's eyes turned light blue before it changed back to his usual hazel brown eyes.
Yaya stood frozen in place as the train began to move and soon disappeared from her sight.
"N-No… This c-can't be h-happening..: Yaya cried as she cupped her face and tried her best to held back her tears.
.w.
Yaya didn't realize that someone was watching her from afar. The person felt bad for the young girl and wanted to comfort her. However, someone held him back. He looked at the person with a frown.
"Don't. You will only make it worse." The person said firmly, glaring the sympathetic boy.
"This isn't right. We shouldn't do this to her." The boy argued back but was silenced with a murderous glare.
"This is the right decision. We're protecting everyone and that is what matters now. Let's go."
The sad boy sighed and took one last glance at the crying girl. With a heavy heart, he turned around and left the railway station.
"I'm sorry, Yaya."
