"And ... the winner is ... Shindou Chrono, Team Striders win the U20!" said the commentator.
"Chrono-san we did it." Taiyou told Chrono.
"Not bad Shindou." Kazuma tells him, who hits Chrono in the back.
"Once again... I lost against him" thought Tokoha who seemed depressed.
"I know what you're thinking... and believe me I feel the same way, frustrated by not being able to fulfill my mission to win the U20, but... it's Chrono we're talking about." Shion says, approaching she is.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Tokoha asks him.
"I don't know, it's like if Chrono had some connection with his cards and knew what he's going to get out or something." the blonde replies.
A little later...
"Congratulations for your victory Chrono-kun!" Aichi congratulates him, who was heading towards where the redhead was.
"Thank you very much Aichi-san." Chrono answers, at that moment the Jaime Flower's team passes and they see Chrono talking to someone they didn't know.
"Jaime, do you know who the person Chrono is talking about?" Tokoha asks Jaime.
"It seems familiar to me, but..." says Jaime, but when he can not see his face, they choose to approach the conversation.
"We'll meet for the party later, I'll go tell Nome everything that happened." Aichi answers to Chrono.
"Yes, but there is something that still worries me..." Chrono answers.
"Don't worry, Kai is looking for Noa so let's leave him." Aichi answers to try to calm Chrono, but Chrono still had his doubts ...
"I understand that Chaos Breaker is dangerous, don't worry about it Aichi-san, I'll send those guys back to Cray no matter what." Chrono tells him, but there was something else that bothered him.
"I understand... there's something else that bothers you, right?" Aichi asks him.
"Yeah, if they were recruited fighters to turn them into Diffrides that means..." In that one person got up from the bushes very annoying and slapped Chrono without giving him a reason.
"Ouch! Hey, Tokoha, why was that?" Chrono asked who touched his cheek.
-...-
"Tell me something at least," Chrono told him.
"Damn you Shindou! Who the hell do you think you are to talk like that about others ?!" says Tokoha who starts shouting, and this makes people turn to see them.
"I don't know what's going on, but... your fight will have to wait a bit, or do I have to remind you that this is a public place?" Ibuki replies, who was accompanied by Mamoru and the others.
"well, we're leaving!" says Tokoha who retires with Kumi and Enishi, since she was still upset with Chrono.
"Amigo~... uhm ... I have something to tell you" Jaime tells Chrono and they go to a more secluded place.
In a more retired place...
"Miguel Torres, that explains everything..." Chrono tells Jaime.
"I don't understand... you could explain a little." Jaime answers a little confused.
"Well... when Chrono heard about the Driffrides and Shiranui he looked for information about Onimaru Kazumi and... also about his team." says Aichi, who arrives where they are, accompanied by Mamoru, Shion and Ibuki.
"Aichi-san, what are you doing here?" Chrono asks to see them all together.
"So you were worried about Tokoha from the beginning?" Shion asks.
"Huh? What are you talking about?" Chrono answers him.
"Don't you remember... you clearly said" I wonder why Tokoha decided to leave his studies abroad to return here." says Shion.
"That says nothing, I found out about the Diffrides until after the second stage of U20." Argues Chrono.
"Yes, but you knew there was something wrong with Onimaru and his team, and when you found out ..." Shion replies to the redhead.
"Where do you want to go with this Shion?" Chrono asks the blonde.
"Do you really want me to say...?" the blonde answers
"(sigh) If you have nothing to say, I'll go help Shin in the store." Chrono tells him, who moves away from there, but at that moment ...
"Maybe Aichi-san does'nt not know, but ... Jaime, Kamui, Mamoru and I know, that you like Tokoha. So stop lying to yourself." Shion answers, making the redhead turn around.
"You're just saying nonsense." Chrono answers him, who leaves and leaves them alone.
"hehe, Shion-kun, I already knew that." Aichi replies to Shion.
"Did Kamui-san tell you?" Shion asks the young blue-haired man.
"No, Chrono-kun asked a weird question the first time I met him." Aichi replies to the blonde.
Flashback...
"I can't believe what I heard. How is it that you aren't surprised as I am?" Chrono asks them.
"That's because you're still young," Kai replies.
"Well... there was a time when we went through a similar situation," says Aichi.
"Really?!" who is surprised Chrono even more than he was.
"How to forget it... the fight against Chaos Breaker, for some reason I feel it is a coincidence, or a bad one." Kamui replies.
"But it will be easy, right? I mean... you've defeated him before." Chrono says to them.
"This time it will not be so easy, first we have the Diffriders and now that we know they woke up Chaos Breaker, things will get harder." says Ibuki.
"Yeha, Chaos Breaker doesn't like to be in one place, and he will look for a way to use fighters to have an army of Reverse." Kai replies.
"..." does that mean that my friends are in trouble? "Chrono reacts worriedly.
"You just concentrate on the U20, we'll take care of the rest." Kamui answers.
End of Flashback...
"Well that does not say much, but ... why would Chrono be thinking?" Shion would say when he found out about a few things.
"For now, we will go to the party to celebrate the champions and Aichi." Ibuki tells them.
"Hey?" Shion reacts surprised.
"Yes, I'm leaving in a few days, so ... Shin-san and Misaki decided to throw me a farewell party." Aichi tells Shion.
"Well, see you at the party." says Jaime, who is going to plan something to make his team go to Aichi's farewell party.
"Someone else feels that this will end badly ..." says Shion when he sees Jaime walking away.
To be continue...
