Normal POV

Silence was thickly lining the air in which the BladeBreakers were in. They were driving to Akita, where they hoped to find there missing friend. They still didn't understand why Tyson would want to run away, and every time a certain blonde haired boy thought much about why Tyson would leave, he would always think that it was his fault for badgering him to tell him what was wrong, and he would start crying all over again. It was becoming harder and harder for the group of friends to put off the fact that Max might just be over reacting, because the more and more they thought about it, the more they thought that there may be a connection between the way he was behaving before he left and why he left.

"It's all my fault," declared a tearful voice from one side of the car, "I could have told him he could trust me, and that I wouldn't have told another living soul, and then he might not have left, and we wouldn't be chasing after him right now. If anything happens to him, it'll be my fault my best friend is hurt."

Everyone felt great sympathy for Max, because they knew that Tyson was one of his best friends ever in his life, and that having Tyson run away like that made Max think Tyson was trying to say he didn't want him as a friend anymore. But Rei thought that this wasn't fair for Max, and that he shouldn't have to go through the pain alone, so he sat next to him and lent him his shoulder to cry on, which Max accepted whole-heartedly.

Rei's POV

Why am I so distressed about Max being so upset? I know that we are friends, but I'm having such confused emotions. I don't know why, or how, I'm feeling these, but I am, and I don't know what to do. I feel like my inside are becoming fuzzy, and I don't know what to do. And, even though this is going to sound really bad, I'm kinda glad that Max is crying, because it's feels good being round him like this, being there for him. It is really hurtful though that Max will never feel the same way.

"Don't cry, Max. Everything's gonna be o.k." I reassured Max. "We're gonna find Tyson. When he finds out how much we miss him and how much he means to us, he'll come back, so don't cry."

Normal POV

While Rei was comforting Max, Hilary was solemnly thinking over this whole thing, and Kenny tried to talk Hilary out of losing her mind with all these ideas that kept popping into her head about what she would do to Tyson once she got her hands on him. But while all the others were coming to terms with all the pain and despair, Kai was having his own problems. He kept thinking about Tyson, and what he might be doing now, and where he really was. And whether he was thinking of Kai, like he was thinking Tyson.

Normal POV (with Tyson)

"So, this is the famous Akita city?" Tyson said aloud, to no one in particular.

It was a decent sized city/town, with all the facilities of any place people went to, but Tyson kept feeling like he wasn't meant to be there, but always brushed it off as nerves. Tyson looked at the buildings all over the city with admiration, and silent awe. He has always wondered what it felt like being independent, and wondered what it felt like running away. He always thought that it was be exciting and scary, but he learnt by just thinking about it properly that it was adventurous and nerve-racking, because he really wanted this to work, because the more and more he thought about his crush, the more and more difficult id was to continue on his journey, and he didn't want them to think that he was coward, and have to go through the same procedures over again.

Tyson looked up at the sky, looking for some answers of some kind that would point him in the right directions, but all he got was a head full of questions. Why was he running away? Duh, that's an easy one, because of his feelings for someone he knows he'll never have, and not being able to be anywhere near this certain person without getting nervous and wondering whether he looks good. Is this going to work? Of course it will. It has to, because if it doesn't, I'll have to explain why I left, and then I'll have to tell them the truth, and Kai will kick me off the team.

"Why did I have to fall for such a god damn person like him?" Tyson asked himself. "I mean, there are so many other people out there I could have fallen for, but oh no, I had to have a crush with the famous Kai Hiwatari, one of the most bossiest, strictest, deadliest people living on God's green Earth!"

With this, Tyson walked into a hotel and booked in for a couple of nights until his boat ride to Sapporo, but little did he know, the rest of his friends were closing in on the town, and an unknown force has come after Tyson.
