A/N: Chappy 7!!! : ) yayy. SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you don't know who Masquerade really is. Soooo enjoy!! : ) I own nothing.
I sat down in Runo's chair near her computer. I logged on to the brawlers site.
"What is this idea?" She asked.
"We will challenge Masquerade, save Dan, and not kill Masquerade." I told her.
"Oh. Ok." she replied. She probably didn't want to argue.
Everything was set up. I started filming.
"Hey Masquerade! I want to battle you after what happened to Dan! If I win you have to bring Dan back. If you win I will do what Dan did, go into the Doom Dimension. Got It?" I disconnected.
"Are you sure this will work?" Runo asked.
"Positive." I said. She nodded, and I sighed because I knew she didn't believe me.
That night I couldn't sleep. I never can when I'm nervous. Never.
I woke up to a note in my room. It was from Masquerade. It said,
Milly,
It's nice to know that you'll do anything for Dan. I will battle you. Meet me at the harbor, at 3 O'clock today. Alone.
~M
I shuttered. I couldn't share this with anyone. Not the brawlers. I grinned. I needed them. But, they could cause me some trouble and obstacles in order to save Dan. I couldn't make up my mind.
Someone knocked on the door. I opened the door.
"Hi Marucho. What's up?" I said.
"Um, breakfast is ready in the dinning hall." He replied.
"Oh. Ok." I closed the door behind me and followed him.
"Is something wrong?" he questioned.
My expression changed completely. "Err, um no. Sorry. I just miss him." Dan…
"Oh yeah. Me too. He was so…" He started. "Stupid." He muttered.
I froze. He was stupid. He knew Runo loved him and then went for me. That liar. He hurt both Runo and me. Way too much. I stopped and ran the other way.
"Milly!" he cried out.
"Don't worry!! I have to do something now!" I yelled.
"Like what?" He yelled back.
"Apologize!" I yelled and ran to Runo's.
I rang their doorbell. Runo's mom answered.
"Hello!" she said.
"Where's Runo?" I asked.
"In her room…" she said.
"Thank you!" I ran inside to her room.
"Milly?" she exclaimed.
"Runo, I'm sorry." I muttered.
"Why?" she asked.
"I took Dan away from you." I said.
"I wouldn't say that!" Runo said.
"Yes you would." I glanced at the clock. 2:50!
"Crap. I got to go!" I ran out and sprinted to the harbor.
"You're late." Masquerade said.
I nodded. "I know." I looked up at her disguise. Why would Runo want to kill Alice? I thought.
"Let's brawl!" I yelled.
