And I'm back with another story ~ I just couldn't resist the urge ! I was super angry with the ending of Mechtanium Surge when Dan just left on a boat ! :P I was totally expecting some DanXRuno moments when Dan told Runo "Listen up , Runo . We've got some unfinished business to take care of but as soon as we're finished , we'll be home to celebrate with all of you ." I NEARLY SCREAMED WHEN I HEARD THAT ! Waited for like 17 days for a day of sheer disappointment . ARGH . ):

And then , I thought of making my own 'ending' instead ~ Read , review and enjoy ~

Chapter 1 : And He Came Back

"That jerk ... He left us . He left me ."

Rain was pouting down heavily from the sky , hitting the windows with large 'pitter patter' sounds . It wad just like how she felt . The rain was washing all her hopes away , her heart was lost in all the water .

She hugged her knees , trying to fight back tears .

"How selfish can you get ?" she whispered , hugging her knees tighter .

She looked out of the window at the gloomy sky .

"I should get some sleep . No use trying to brooding over him all the time ," the blunette said to herself , lying down on her bed .

She tossed and turned in her sleep .

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She was surrounded by darkness . A fog lifted up . She felt scared .

"Anyone there ?" she barely managed to say as her heart thumped heavily in her ribcage .

No answer .

As the fog started to clear away bit by bit , she squinted eyes to try to figure out where she was . She turned around .

A forest .

"Am I ... alone ?" she gasped .

"No , you're not ."

She turned towards where the voice came from . A boy . An eighteen-year-old boy . Brown hair , red-brown eyes , slightly taller than her .

"Dan ?"

"It's me ," the brunette said coldly .

The blunette slowly made her way towards the other teenager , who flinched and walked backwards , away from her .

"Why ...?" she stopped moving .

"I ... don't want to be with you . Not now , not anymore ."

The blunette gasped , taking a step back . The brunette walked away , not turning back . She tried to gave chase , but the fog sank down again , blocking the view around her .

"No ... NO !"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The blunette got up , breathing heavily as she grabbed her blanket tightly . Droplets of sweat dropped down from her forehead , and she started to cry .

"Why ...?"

* Runo's POV *

"You can't keep on being like this , Runo . It's been a month already !" my silver-haired best friend yelled from behind me .

I covered my ears and laid my head on the table . She sure was noisy .

"Are you even listening to me ?" Julie screamed .

"Let her be , Julie . You're not helping her with all the screaming ," my raven-haired friend said coolly as he sipped some tea from the teacup . Thank goodness for Shun .

Julie puffed her cheeks and sat down on the chair .

I took a little peek to look at what my friends were doing . Shun sipping his tea , Julie putting some jam on a piece of bread , Marucho carefully putting some food into his mouth and Mira reading a magazine . I sighed , and laid down on the table again .

It was great that my friends weren't bugging me .

I got up from the table to leave the dining room .

"Not eating ?" Mira asked , looking up from her magazine at me with a concerned look .

"Not hungry ," I shook my head as I walked away .

I head back to my room and sat in front of the dressing table . Since my family was in Japan and I had come to Bayview to help my friends with a battle a few months ago , I decided to extend my stay till I felt like returning home .

Dan had no idea how happy I was when Mira asked me for help to come help them . He wasn't the most romantic guy , nor was he the smartest . But he was the guy that could make my heart beat faster , and the one whom my heart beat for . He never really expressed to me how he felt , and nor did I . We weren't the closest couple , but still , we were rather close friends . The relationship we had is complicated , truthfully .

I took some clothes from my closet , an orange singlet , a white jacket and a grey skirt and changed my clothes . I let down my hair from the orange hair bands and put on a white hat . Pulling up my socks and then tying my shoelaces , I got up and walked out of Marucho's house without telling my friends a single thing .

I didn't know where to go . All I knew was that I needed some time alone . I wanted a little fresh air , so I decided to head down to the beach .

I sat down in a quiet corner from all the busy bustling . I closed my eyes , swinging my legs gently to and fro as I smiled . It had really been a long time since I felt peaceful . Say byebye to stress , and hello to the ocean breeze .

I was indulged in my daydreams , so deeply that I didn't realize someone approaching me from behind .

"Hey , kid ."

I turned around , extremely shocked and my heart nearly leapt out of my mouth .

"Dan ?"

"Missed me ?"
