Hey, I know it's been a wile since my last update and I have no excuse other than I just needed a break, I am terribly sorry and I hope this is a good chapter Enjoy!

As Kanade and Yurippe had battled across the chessboard, I could see that they were equally matched, reacting to each others' moves accordingly, staying silent the whole time until their small battle had come to a stalemate, Yurippe's king unable to make any moves, ending the game.

"I must admit, I had a very hard time, Kanade" Yurippe said, looking up from the board, over at me and Kanade.

"You did well, yourself, however I had quite a challenging time myself" Kanade replied, stretching and starting to put the pieces back in the bag from which they came from.

Hinata and Yui had decided to leave, getting us all something to eat at a fast food restaurant, so they would be back soon, Hinata had wanted to stay and watch the game, but he had decided to go with Yui instead, he had told me to keep track of who was winning, so I had decided to record the game on my phone, sending it to him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hinata's P.O.V.

"Wer're here, Yui" I said, Yui hopping out of the passenger side of the car after I opened the door for her.

We had walked up, walking inside of the restaurant to the counter ordering for everyone back at the hospital, but something was strange about the clerk at the counter, I could have sworn I saw him before, but I couldn't quite remember. Man, this was going to drive me insane.

The young clerk was a boy, probably around fourteen or fifteen, as I looked closer, I could see his name tag, his name had translated to large mountain, but frankly, he wasn't very tall at all, but I'm sure he would grow some more later in his years. He had dark brown hair and his name seemed familiar to me.

Ooyama, where have I heard that name before... Wait!

I had frozen up, instantly remembering, the kid! He had no special abilities whatsoever, but he had made it here in the second life. I looked beside me and it appeared that Yui had noticed it a bit as well.

"U-um sir, excuse me?" He had asked, nervous "Are you alright, sir?"

My phone had just then vibrated, I had got a text from Yuzuru, and a link as well, the whole chess game on video. I looked back up at Ooyama, quickly apologizing and thanking him for the food, moving over to set it down at one of the tables, texting Yuzuru back on whom me an Yui had just found.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yuzuru's P.O.V.

"hmm?" I had looked down at my phone, the ringtone going off, "Hey, it's a text from Hinata," I flipped open my phone, reading the text, my eyes growing wide.

"What is it?" Yurippe asked, standing up.

Kanade turned around, looking at me as well, but staying silent

"I just got a text from Hinata. The found Ooyama at the front desk working there, he didn't seem to recognize them too well, and he says to hurry over." I said, smiling slightly, partly glad they didn't find Noda.

"I can't believe they found Ooyama..." said Yurippe, getting up. "We should get over there quickly, how far of a walk is it?"

"I can't say for sure, he didn't include where he was at, but judging by where we usually go to eat, I would say it isn't too far" I said, forgetting that we had to use Hinata's car to get to the hospital.

"Alright then, we should get going" said, Yurippe, ready to get out of the hospital's bed.

"Right then" I said, turning to Kanade "Are you ready to roll out?" I asked, looking down at her, still sitting at the edge of the bed

She nodded, smiling "mhmm" she hummed cheerfully, and with that, we were off, I had told the clerk that we would be back later, and the doctor from earlier said that he would have Kanade's prescription ready when we came back. It had turned out Kanade had severe bronchitis, and the doctors had prescribed some medicine to help clear her airways.

I was glad that she was okay, and the doctor had said that it was good to get her here in time, while they were able to help.

The trio of us had walked out the front, into the sun of the day shining down on us, warming us up.

soon we made good distance, closing the gap between us and the restaurant which was only a few blocks ahead of us now.

"I can't believe it was this far away" I muttered, "it seemed much closer than this distance"

We had continued walking, stepping into the entrance of the small building, first seeing Hinata and Yui, and then catching a glance at Ooyama at the front counter.

"Sorry for taking so long" I apologized, turning my attention back to Hinata and Yui

Yui had then hit me upside the head with a rolled-up newspaper. "Well be on time then!" she yelled

"What a brat..." muttered Yurippe, standing behind me by Kanade

I gritted my teeth, ignoring Yui, and relaxing "Right, are we sure this is Ooyama?" I asked.

"He looks a lot like him, and his name tag has his name on it" said Hinata

I nodded "okay, um any plans?"

Hinata shrugged "the tune had always seemed to work, so that would be my best bet"

"We seriously need to memorize this tune, so we won't have to drag Kanade around all the time..." I muttered

"I don't mind walking around" said Kanade, smiling

"Is your throat okay to sing?" I asked a bit worried, but not trying to show it.

she nodded, still smiling "mhmm"

She had walked over to the counter, silently, looking at Ooyama, smiling some

"Can I get you something, miss?" he asked, smiling back

I had pressed record, so we could hear the tune loud and clear, and also so I wouldn't forget it

"Can I hum you a tune?" she asked, waiting for and answer

"U-um s-sure, I don't see why not, miss..." He smiled again

And with that, Kanade had started humming the tune, a certain customer coming in when she was in the middle. He was a tall young man with purple hair and tan skin

I cursed silently to myself, for he had heard the tune as well, and when she had finished they both had a look of daze on their faces, slowly regaining all of their memories. It was only a short matter of time before Noda gained his memories along with Ooyama.

Noda had snapped out, charging out towards me, yelling.

"You idiot!" cried Yurippe, making him freeze, and go back to standing normally

"Yurippe!" he said, cheerfully, turning towards out leader, getting distracted from his task a few moments earlier

I sighed, relieved walking over to the counter, pressing the end recording button on my phone. "So what time do you get off work, Ooyama?" I asked, smiling a bit.

I laughed a bit nervously " I don't get off until another hour..."

"Maybe we could hang out here until you get off then?" I asked, smiling "We have to go pick up some medicine for Kanade and Yurippe later anyway."

He nodded, smiling "That would be nice"

I smiled, laughing a bit "looks like the group is getting back together again"

Okay everyone, I hope you enjoyed and I'm sorry for my laziness, and have a good day! (I know this chapter is a bit shorter than usual, but yeah)
