Author- I guess that last chapter wasn't really THE END, because I've come
up with a last 'Good-Bye' chapter. This is sort of, and epilogue and a half
to the other stories I have, and even though it isn't as long, I hope you
enjoy it.

Caitlin clutched the small bag, in her lap, of food and clothes she had taken from Tea's house. None of the food was hers, but the clothes had been bought for her before hand. She looked down at the amulet around her neck and sighed.
"This is all your fault." She said, quietly enough so no one else on the bus would hear her. "You're more of a hassle then you're worth, you know that?"
The item didn't answer, as Caitlin half expected, but she couldn't help notice the sort of quick glint in the sun that made it look like it was enjoying the whole thing. She looked out the window again and watched her past home fly behind her in the blink of an eye. It was very depressing, Caitlin concluded, that she could just leave home and take a plane to America without anyone really noticing.
*It's my own fault. I said good-bye in a letter, that's all they needed.* She reminded herself.
The bus screeched to a halt in front of the airport and all the people piled out of the vehicle after paying the bus driver. Caitlin didn't pay much attention to where she was going as she wandered around the airport, only half looking for where to pay for the ticket.
*I'm going to have to learn the language...* She thought, *That will be hard, but I've already gotten through the difficult part. I'm going to write them as soon as I get there somehow. I'll find their addresses and keep in touch best I can.*
Caitlin stopped aimlessly wandering and sat down on a bench to think. Was this a good idea after all?
*I must be crazy leaving my friends as soon as I make them, but this will be an adventure. And besides, I don't really belong in Domino. It's too small, and too easy to cause a lot of trouble. I'd be on the news every day!*
Caitlin nodded to herself, firmly, and took out a slip piece of paper from her bag along with a blue pen. She should do it, she was meant to do this. Without so much as a second thought after the talking to, she propped her knee against the wall and began to write.
'Dear Tea, Yugi, Joey, Tristen, Mai, Ryou, Zach, and Megan.'
'I am at Domino Airport, and it's a mess. People are everywhere, all hurried and bustled and ready for a new start. It seems cramped in the building in spite of its size, and I'm only in the parking lot! I'm hoping I can leave for America pretty soon, but it doesn't look too very promising.'
'I appoligize about leaving you a letter, but I couldn't stand saying good- bye in person. Talk about a change in heart, I've only been gone for a few hours and I'm already starting to have second thoughts. It's too true that I miss you already, and I've already decided to keep in touch, but I can't make a promise. Life destroys all my promises. Isn't it mean?'
'I don't know if this letter will ever get to you, seeing as I don't understand the postal service completely yet and I'm sending it by air mail, and I don't know if I'm ever going to see you again, but I'll always be thinking about you. I guess this is goodbye then, Caitlin.'
Caitlin folded up the letter and let it go in the wind, her personal 'air mail'. She watched it float away in the breeze for a while before turning back to finding a way to buy a ticket.
*Maybe some day I'll see them again.* She said, a tiny smile playing on her lips as though certain, *Maybe.*

Author- Kay, that's the end. Yeah, I know, kind of boring. I wrote it when it was raining so it's kind of depressing, and not much happens, but I wrote it so you could kind of see what was going on in Caitlin's head when she was going to the air port. Sorry peoples, but this is the real end of my story.
The REAL end of my Story.
