I suppose writing a Kaisaki fic won't hurt. Enjoy

I was standing high on a cliff, watching as Kai looked in the distance, his gaze blank and longing, as he stared at the vibrant night sky. He was probably pondering about ways to reach Aichi, it was written all over his face. Ever since Aichi vanished, Kai's expression could be read like an open book.

I frowned. It seemed that all the brunet thought about was Aichi, Aichi, Aichi. Sure, I was also agitated about our friend, but it still hurt to see him like this, my heart aching with longing to comfort him and reassuringly ruffle his hair.

Yes, I, Misaki Tokura, had developed feelings for Kai Toshiki, our vanguard. He called all of us mates, but it seemed that Aichi was the only mate, and we were just there to help him selfishly take Aichi all for himself. The thought made my lips droop in a frown.

To Kai, I wanted to be more than his mate.

Deep in my heart, I wanted to take Aichi's place and be Kai's best friend, rival,

and lover.

He probably didn't realize that he loved Aichi yet, but his fondness for the small bluenette was very obvious, and no one would be surprised if he confessed to Aichi. I felt my frown become larger.

I wondered if he felt the same way with my concern for Kourin.

I only thought of Kourin as a friend, yet I felt a strange connection with her, similar to how Kai felt about Aichi.

Although that connection wasn't as strong as mine with Kai.

Well, you couldn't really call it strong. I barely interacted with Kai, occasionly passing questions or comments to each other, and I rarely had a cardfight with him, but whenever I did, his eyes wouldn't spark like when he fought Aichi or Ren.

My gaze traveled down, looking at the barren ground at Kai's feet.

That was where I was.

Although I won championships and contests with my friends, I felt like I was the one who brought the team down, and I felt the same when I lost to Ratie.

That little witch was right. I am despairing. Despairing about everything. About Kai, about Aichi, about me being the weak link in the group and probably the one who would cause all of us to fail and lose memories of Aichi.

I felt my eye muscles tighten and my eyes becoming moist. I didn't want Kai to lose his memories of Aichi.

If he did, he would become that cold, unfriendly, power hungry person he was a year ago, before Aichi came to change his life, and he would never realize that I had feelings for him.

I feared that.

People always thought I was a strong, confident girl, yet I had so many fears. Fears to disappoint my friends, fail, let my parents down. I continued to sulk, digging my toe into the ground.

No.

I stood up straight, looking directly at the gray sky.

I musn't doubt myself, or Kai will see me as a weak, unconfident person.

I grabbed my deck out of my pocket, looking at the shining card sitting on top.

My legion unit.

I felt my strength rise, as my confidence grew.

I am going to go to where Aichi is, not for him, or for my friends.

I am going for Kai.

I looked back at the sky.

Kai, you may not notice my strong feelings for you, but I will always be there to help you out.

That is the true Heaven's Quest.

Out of the corner of her eye, a dim star grew brighter, completeing a constellation in the sky that lit up the reflected seas.

Oh my god. I think I did pretty badly on this one, Gomen.
