"Chiro!" Everyone ran to the boy as he started falling. Danni was getting closer to Chiro; she readied her arms to catch him. As soon as he fell into her arms, he disappeared. Tears started streaming down her face. "No, Chiro!"

Danni fell to the ground on her knees, sobbing hysterically. The others weren't doing better themselves.

Antauri had tears rolling down his face, Nova buried her face into Sprx's chest, as he patted her back, Gibson tried his best holding back tears, Otto and Mytho just stared at Danni.

Ryuk, on the other hand, was really pissed off. "Damn it! That fucking crystal; God damn it! I should have smashed it before it even got here!" He tried to sound tough, but it didn't do any good. He averted his gaze to Danni.

She took it pretty hard; a new friend, disappearing in the blink of an eye, it was too much to bare. Ryuk took pity for her; after all, Chiro did help her when she needed help.

I know I am going to regret this. Ryuk bent down to be closer to Danni and wrapped his arms around her, trying to calm her down…by, soon, having the crap beaten out of him. Only what he didn't expect was her to do the same.

She mimicked Nova, and cried into his chest. I can't believe he actually cares…he doesn't mean it though…does he? She continued to sob for a few minutes, but she stopped when Otto yelled out," Meeko, oh my gosh I forgot all about her!" Everyone turned their gaze to Meeko, only to have, yet another horrifying image lodged into their minds.


Chiro landed on the cold ground of the Citadel; feeling somewhat weak, and his eyes shut tightly. He sat up, eyes still shut, and started throwing a coughing fit, but it ended soon enough. He rubbed his eyes and opened them.

He looked to see his surroundings; he knew this place very well. "Why does this always happen to me? Can't this happen to someone like...I don't know, Gibson (Chiro is mean!)?" Chiro quickly heard heavy foot steps and his blood ran cold.

He turned around to see Skeleton King walking slowly towards him. Chiro backed away, each time Skeleton King took a step closer. Slowly, he readied his hands to make a monkey fu, but something was wrong. "Monkey Fu..." Nothing happened, and this only caused Chiro to grow scared. "What the...what happened...:

The Skeleton King watched the boy wonder, and he cackled evilly. "Silly boy...you think I would let use your powers." Chiro's eyes widened and tears started to roll down his face.

"What do you want from me?" His voice cracked a little and was small. This only caused the Skeleton King to smirk. He waved his hand and the boy floated into the air. Something gripped his neck and Chiro started struggling to break free.

"You are more powerful than you believe you are. I plan on using your power to destroy this pathetic excuse for a planet and plunge the universe into darkness..." Chiro started struggling even more.

"What the heck does that have to do with this stupid crystal!?" Chiro screamed out, with most of his breath.

"This crystal holds magnificent power, you should be proud that it needs a mortal body to unleash it's power to it's full extent!" Chiro's struggling became violent and eventually he broke free.

He landed on the floor and started running away. He heard Skeleton King yell out commands to the formless and it only caused him to speed up. Guys...where are you, I need you, please hurry...


Meeko was placed on the examination table, Otto was holding her right hand because he was worried for her...and due to the fact that her left arm was torn off. Gibson was fiddling with his tracker, trying to get a trace from Chiro's communicator, Mytho and Ryuk were getting some Dragon Tears-hoping that could help- and the others were comforting Danni.

"Come on Danni, cheer up we'll find him." Nova pleaded.

"Yeah, he'll be just fine, just you wait and see. This is nothing, the kid's been through a lot worse, trust me when I say worse!" Danni gave Sprx a sheepish smile. She felt a calm hand on her shoulder and turned to see Antauri.

"Do not lose hop my friend...I know how you are feeling." A tear shed from Antauri's eye as Danni wiped the tear off his face. She laughed softly.

"Don't you cry too, I'm sorry I'm making you guys worry..."

"Do not say that. We are just as worried about Chiro as you are. I care deeply for him...I feel as though I let him down."

"Why?" Danni asked the black monkey, a confused expression on her face. Antauri sighed, another tear fell off his face.

"He thinks of Chiro as his son. Chiro's helped us so much, he's not just our leader...he's part of our family..." Danni smiled at Nova's reply.

"Hey guys," Otto screamed out; his team looked at him jumping around," I think the Dragon Tears are helping Meeko!" The team's faces lit up and they ran into the other room which held Meeko.

They saw Meeko standing up, wobbly. She tried walking, but she fell flat on her face. Otto laughed as he helped her up. She looked at him for a second and threw herself at him. "Yay, I can hug you a-Ah." She fell again, losing her balance. "This new arm and leg is not helping me out so much."

Meeko tried to hug Otto again, and was successful. Otto noticed her hug was not as hard as she hugged him the first time they met. He was relieved. Meeko nuzzled him for a second before she realized...

"Holy shit, where's Chiro!" Everyone's happy expression faded into a depressed frown. "Well, is someone gonna tell me or do I have to hug it out of you?" Meeko threatened them with, yet another death hug.

Danni cleared her throat and stated, sadly,"Chiro...Chiro's gone Meeko..."


Okay, this one I thought was much better than the last. Thanks again, my fellow readers for cheerin me up, you guys are so awesome, and yes, I'm updating a little faster than usual, but I don't want you guys waiting! Hope you liked it and R&R.

Meeko: Yay, I'm gonna live, but where's Chiro!? And doesn't Danni care about me?

Danni: Of course I do, it's just...

Meeko: You're mad 'cause I keep giving you hugs, aren't you?

Danni: HEY I WAS WORRIED ABOUT YOU, YOU'RE MY BEST FRIEND!

Meeko: (hugs Danni) Nice try!

Danni: Ahhhhhh, someone help me! R&R and stuff!
