For the love of God, where did he go?

Gogo couldn't stop asking herself that question or similar, ever since she started on this 'mission'. She so many times loved to say that he popped up from somewhere and surprised her, even though she never was one for surprises. or that she found him there, or here, anything that could make her worry disappear. she had been looking for hours, and everywhere she went she would check twice for a chance of him coming there or here on a whim.

Gogo skidded through the city between cars, ignoring all the traffic lights. She was not a car after all, so why would she respect any? She had to find Hiro, so she needed to ignore some rules.

Out of all her friends, Gogo is not the most rational person, because that would automatically apply on Wasabi because he wouldn't just up and throw all logic out the window. And as expected of her, Honey Lemon is indecisive, because when shocked, she would not just move. And as Fred is, well, just Fred, there will be nothing to say other than he will wait out. Some things need time to heal he says.

Gogo didn't need any of that right now. She needs to be worse than herself. Hours had passed and that was not enough to complete what she strived for.

She's about to lose her mind.

"Did you guys find anything at your end?" Came Wasabi's voice through her comlink.

She halted her move in the middle of the lit road as the cars pass beside her. She lifted her visor to look around her as she responded. "No. what about you? Fred? Honey Lemon?" Any trace of him would be fine with her, she thinks.

"Nothing here," Fred said.

"Here, too." Honey Lemon said sadly.

If her suit didn't hide her skin, Gogo's white knuckles would have appeared so clearly from the pressure she was putting on them. At least her hiss couldn't be missed by her friends. Not that tried to hide it this time around.

"Gogo, I'm so...

"WIPE OFF THAT FUCKING WISHFUL THINKING FROM YOUR HEAD, WASABI. HIRO IS NOWHERE TO BE FOUND AND I'M LOSING MY MIND." She started yelling as tears started to well up in her eyes. "The boy is only fifteen for God sake. We don't even know what he could be doing to himself right now. And you, you're telling me to calm down and that we'll find him? THAT'S BULLSHIT, AND YOU KNOW IT." She added as she pressed her palm to her forehead. "I... I would... forgive myself if something happened to him."

silence ringed on the group as Gogo cried.

"Do you think that you're the only one who's worried about Hiro?" Gogo contemplated the answer to Wasabi's question. "If so, you wrong. Because we are as worried as you, but we can't just be like you, because the way you are right now is not serving for anything, let alone a second in command. And who the hell decided that anyway? Who gave you that authority? HUH? You are but a self-absorbed girl who only cares about herself." Wasabi hissed out with venom in his voice.

"Wasabi! Stop that!"

"No Honey Lemon, she needs to hear the truth. She's been acting like slope for the entire raid. crying, yelling and all that bullshit. I'm sick of her at this point, and whoever trusted her to be our second in command must be an idiot.

Gogo's tears couldn't stop rolling down her cheeks as she put the back of her hand to her eye, trying to hide away her shame. Wasabi was right. She acted wrongly. She's Gogo Tomago. The girl made off of one hundred men. The coolest girl in college. The kind of girl that made some shit possible for her sex. The girl who never cried in front of others. The girl that Hiro trusted the most to make her second in command. Why was the same girl being all of the above's opposites?

"That's enough, Wasabi. You got your point across. So shut it." It was Fred who surprised Gogo this time with his seriousness, for once. Plus, what he said made her realize that he agrees with most of what Wasabi said.

She clenched her fist, hard and wiped her tears entirely, then she sighed heavily

"Tsk." Wasabi showed his annoyes by clicking his tongue.

"Wasabi! Thank you." Gogo announced through the comlink.

"Wait! really? Did it really work? I mean... yeah. You're welcome!"

She smiled as she resisted the urge to tell him that; yes, it worked so perfectly. "You guys! I'm really sorry. I shouldn't have put you through this." She said bitterly.

"Aww! don't worry about it. We feel ya, sis." Fred said.

"It's Okay, Gogo. We're all stressing out over this, but we will find him in the end." Honey Lemon added.

"Yes, we will. Only this time, with style." Gogo said confidently as she got herself ready to continue skidding.

"Hey, Gogo!" Wasabi called out, this time happily.

"Hmm?"

"Woman up!"

"Ok. You got that." She said with a wide smile adorning her face as she hid it behind her visor, then launched herself through the road toward some red, giant bridge.
