A/N: Hello, I do hope you like this chapter and will continue reading. This is probably confusing and I put a lot more episodes than normal in it. At two episodes there were only 652 words so I did even more episodes and it didn't change much in the way of word count. I stopped writing it at the end of episode 138.

Chapter Fourteen: Reversed Worldly Friends
Aichi's POV
After a while Ren called me back saying that he saved Suiko. "Seems you're awake now" Ren spoke but I knew he was talking to Suiko.
"How are you? You're back to normal it seems" Ren continued. "At least you saved one of them" I sighed in relief.
"Seems you were right Aichi. We just can't lose a Cardfight" he said.
"I know. I was, I think, the first person to save a Reverse Fighter" I told him. I don't really know if Link Joker got outside of Japan or not.
"I swore I would protect my friends and that's what I'm going to do" Ren told Suiko. "I'll call or text ya when I save Tetsu" Ren told me making me sigh.
"Fine but make sure you do, don't fall asleep before then" I warned. "I won't scouts honor" I just rolled my eyes at this. "Go save our friends already" I chuckled.
Scene Change: Card Capitol
Ren still hasn't texted or called me. I hope the Network isn't down there.
"Get your head in the Game" Morikawa complained. "You were thinking about Kourin weren't you?" he inquired. "No I wasn't.
Ren was supposed to call or text me and he hasn't yet. I tried calling him earlier but his Phone was disconnected" I told him.
"Why would you worry about a person like him when there's Kourin to worry about?" he was in gush mode again. "Sorry about him. Ren's your friend right?" Izaki asked.
"Yeah and there's something going on at his Headquarters" I told him. "You don't want Morikawa being even more paranoid right?" Izaki asked.
We were careful not to speak too loud because of Morikawa being not too far away in his dream world. "Yeah, Miwa and the others know. I'm worried about Kai to because he started most of it" I explained and he nodded.

It's been a while but Ren finally called me. He told me the Network was down so he couldn't contact anyone.
"I saved Asaka before I saved Tetsu. Have I really been so oblivious to how Asaka felt in the past?" Ren asked making me sigh. "It's not entirely your fault you were Dren though you did notice" I told him.
"Where are you anyway?" I asked before he spoke. "I'm at your School" was his simple answer.
I was a block away from there. "Wait right there" I told him before he chuckled through the Phone. I ran all the way to School and skidded to a stop when I saw Suiko on the stairs to the left of the School.
"There you are… why are you here?" panting from how fast I was running. "Did you run here?" Tetsu asked.
His voice was laced with concern for some reason. "Yeah… but only… a block" taking in gulps of air. "Is your Ultra Rare classmate supposed to be coming today?" Ren queried.
It was sort of out of the blue if I didn't already know why he asked. "Well I do know she's been gone a lot, I don't trust Takuto's word.
I would say she's been Reversed but I haven't seen her" I told him. "Oh I see…" he was going to say something else but Rekka and Kourin appeared. They seemed off even if they didn't act like it.
There was something very dark in their hearts that Ren can't see anymore. "Well I have to go, text me if it happens again" grabbing Kourin and Rekka's wrists gently.
"Roger! And you'll do the same?" Ren saluted and I nodded. "Of course" saluting him back when I let go of Rekka's wrist. "At least you're back, many of our friends were worried" I told both of them.

I was playing Misaki when I remembered something. "Koutei's supposed to be coming home today right?" looking out the window at a passing Plane.
"Yuri said it should be coming in any minute" Misaki answered. I nodded hearing Darkquartz's voice in my head. He told me that Kai was at the Airport.
'Oh no' I worried when I heard this. "We haven't seen Kenji in forever" I whispered.
It was loud enough for Shingo to hear apparently. "You wouldn't happen to be talking about Kenji Mitsusada are you?" Shingo asked. He was right in front of my face when he asked to.
"Who's that?" Naoki asked when he came over. "Of course a rookie wouldn't know him" Shingo started.
"Shingo, don't start fights today" warning him. I was worried over Kai, Koutei, and Chris now. "Kenji Mitsusada is one of the few people who have been able to beat Ren Suzugamori" Shingo explained.
"Many call him 'The Emperor' or 'Koutei'" Shingo explained further. I don't see why he had to explain that though.
From the name that Koutei was given Naoki thought he was full of himself. "Not in the slightest Naoki. You have to get to know someone before you make assumptions like that" I informed.
I sent a text to Yuri telling her to warn her boyfriend. I sent a text to any one of the leaders of worldwide Teams I have the numbers of.
Chris was first though and I gave a warning to Koutei just in case. Don't know if he'll even check his messages when he gets off though. Darkquartz told me when we left the Club Room that Kai was heading to New York.
They didn't seem to heed my warning. This really is bad but at least this was supposed to happen.
~Nin~
Walking through the street I wondered what else I needed for the trip. "I have a Flashlight, Raincoat, and Backpack. Am I missing anything?" I asked worried about Kai and the others still.
"You'll need another pair of shoes, one won't be enough" Misaki told me. "We're only going there for three days" Naoki was exasperated.
"Oh I need my Cooking Kit, Satellite Phone, Sewing Kit, First Aid Kit" I rattled off a few more things before I realized something. All three of them were staring at me like I was crazy. "I bring that stuff all of the time" I told them.
Shingo decided to tell Naoki that he'd get bad foot fungus if it rains and he only has one pair of shoes. I can take my blue Pacific Mountain Descend Waterproof Hiking Boots.
They can easily be my spare pair. The Vanguard Weekly Segment came on before I got a text from Taishi. 'Where's Kai?
I can't reach him anywhere?' Taishi asked. 'New York, I think' I typed back.
'WHY IS HE IN NEW YORK!' I felt bad for him because he was that worried about Kai. Kai's also conscious of what he's doing so I don't know who to really feel worse for. Because the VF High School Championship is around the corner they were talking about that.
Dr. O said that Ren's Team is likely to win this year but I really have no idea. I think it's going to be a while before Kai actually returns and we have to stop Link Joker.
'Um that's sort of the bad news about this whole ordeal. He's been hired by Takuto/Link Joker/Void to recruit more people. Kai's a strong player so he's less likely to lose than anyone else is' is what I tapped back.
Naoki's not happy that we have to go on the Class Trip. He wanted to be the one going to the Finals and not stuck here.
"We'll make it next year" I smiled before Misaki spoke. "We still have more shopping to do" she told them walking off. Shingo followed right behind before Naoki did.
Dr. O mentioned Leon and his Legendary Aqua Force Clan. "It truly is a sight to see him play" Dr. O praised.
I wouldn't know what sight it is to watch him play. I've played against him and heard him play but did not see him play. 'Good luck to all of you' I smiled before I went to where Misaki and the others are.
Because of the mention of Leon I remembered that I should text him what happened. 'Hey Leon just wanted to give you an update.
Ren has cleared his Team of Reverse. Koutei/Kenji, Yuri, and Chris's Teams have become Reversed. Kai is now in the U.S. spreading Reverse on Link Joker's orders.
I do hope that's useful, I'll see you sometime' sending the message. 'Just figured out what you meant thanks, don't lose right?" Leon asked after a bit.
'Yeah don't lose to a Reverse Fighter. If you do you become Reversed as well' I informed a second or third time. I can't really remember how many times I've warned them ahead of time.
It's only so they'll know what they're getting themselves into. I got a text from Guy for some reason after we finished shopping.
He asked if I knew where his sister and Koutei are. 'They're in the Airport still I think. They've become Reversed and are Reversing Jillian, Sharlene, and possibly Leon' sending it when I finished.
