The next morning, Miki awoke to hear a knock on her door, and she got up in confusion.

'It's probably Neil...' the pink haired girl told herself and she opened the door.

To her surprise, it was Allen, with a bouquet of roses, and Miki gasped in shock while blushing.

Seeing her reaction, Allen smirked, and told her charmingly, "Sorry to drop in like this, but judging by your crops, you seem to like plants. So...I thought you might like these roses as well. A princess like you deserves the best, after all."

Miki felt her entire face grow neon pink and she looked at him with her trembling eyes in shock.

No guy has ever done this for her before and she felt her heart race with excitement; however, she for some reason felt guilty about this feeling.

From a far, Neil saw Allen talking to Miki with the bouquet of roses in his grasp and Neil clenched his fist angrily.

Neil was coming to Miki's farm to help with her cow, not to see Allen flirting with Miki.

Before Miki could even respond to Allen, Neil stomped up to them, and demanded infuriated, "What the hell do you think you're doing, Allen?"

"Something that YOU should be doing," Allen remarked with a chuckle and handed Miki the roses.

"What are you talking about?"Neil glared.

"You obviously have the hots for Miki," Allen joked, closing his eyes, and chuckled.

"I barley even know her! I do not!" Neil denied while blushing and clenched his teeth.

Miki didn't know why but the words Neil spoke made her feel hurt and her eyes trembled of sadness.

"Pfttt. Please, Neil, it's written all over your face. You're clearly jealous," Allen countered and chuckled even more.

"Both of you stop it! I don't need this!" Miki screamed and sprinted away from them sobbing, dropping the roses onto the ground.

All of the rose petals scattered everywhere and fell to the ground.

Allen picked up one of the petals and smirked. "Ah I see now. You're so upset Neil because you wanted roses from me. Am I right?"

Neil smacked the petal out of Allen's hand. "Shut up! How can you even joke like that, KNOWING that Miki ran away crying just a second ago!"

"Eh, she seems like the type who cries a lot. She'll get over it," Allen chuckled, tilting his glasses up.

Neil lifted up Allen by his shirt infuriated and threatened, "I'll beat the shit out of you if you don't stop!"

"And what will Miki think if you do? She'll be terrified of you," Allen retorted, flashing an evil smirk towards Neil, and chuckled.

Neil remained quiet for a moment, slowly putting Allen down, and glared at him.

"You sicken me... I don't care what Miki thinks. I would beat the living shit out of you right now but I've got to find Miki first! She might be in trouble!" Neil told him, trying to contain his anger, and he glared directly at Allen with his fierce ruby eyes.

"Hm, do what you want... I would just give her space. You probably give her nightmares," Allen laughed.

"You bastard! I can't stand you! I'm leaving!" Neil huffed and sprinted out of Miki's farm.

Meanwhile... With Miki...

Miki had no idea where she was running but she did know she didn't want to stop.

She came to a halt when she entered into a strange forest and sat down on a log.

She sobbed silently and buried her face into her knees.

'Why... Why do I always have cry over every single little thing? Am I really that pathetic? And why do I have to fear everything... Why couldn't I be born normal like everybody else... I-I couldn't even handle hearing a single argument between Neil and Allen... Is that how pathetic I am...?' Miki thought to herself and even more negative thoughts filled her head as she sobbed.

There was suddenly rustling in the bushes and out came the man with the black hoodie that was following Miki the other day.

In his right hand was a knife and he smirked evilly at her.

Miki's eyes instantly widened in fear and she started to scream bloody murder.

"What's wrong girl...? Don't tell me this knife scares you... I know, let's play tag...How do you win? You don't DIE!" the man screamed and started to sprint towards Miki.

Miki immediately started to sprint as fast as she could away from the man and the pink haired girl screamed SO loudly as she ran.

She then abruptly tripped on an tree branch and turned around to see the man charging right at her with the knife.

Suddenly, the same bear that attacked Miki before, tackled the man to the ground.

Miki's eyes widened in shock. 'A-An animal is saving me?' she thought in absolute shock.

"Damn bear!" the man muttered annoyed and he then stabbed the bear repeatedly.

Miki instantly covered her mouth in agony and her lime eyes trembled as tears fell down her cheeks.

The bear let out a few cries of agony as the man stabbed the bear.

The bear laid on the ground, staring right at Miki, as a tear slid down it's cheek before it finally passed away.

"No..." Miki whispered to herself, utterly heartbroken, and felt an tremendous amount of guilt.

"Now it's your turn my dear..." the man said psychotically and grabbed Miki's shoulder.

Miki closed her eyes and screamed as loud as he could, expecting her life to end; however, it didn't.

She was awaiting for the guy to stab her but she opened her eyes to see that Neil had punched the man.

The man was knocked down on the ground and he was bleeding from the mouth.

"Miki! Are you okay!?- I-" Neil was interrupted because Miki instantly went into his arms and sobbed.

"Thank you! Thank you so much N-Neil!" she sobbed.

Neil looked down at her, slightly smiling, and held her tightly.

"You're welcome."
