And now, on to the story:
A/N: Sorry, just thought of this—Kai will be somewhat OOC in this chappie so bear with it please! Bear with all the dividers as well! Hehe.
Ruby pulled something out from a pouch, which was hooked onto her belt. "Yes, I remember." She opened her palm to reveal half of a heart-shaped pendant, hooked onto another locket, just like Kai's. She took the half-pendant from Kai's hand and put the two together. (You know those toys that fit together, they have one part with a protruding thing and one with a hollow and you insert the protruding thing into the hole and if fits.)

Kai closed his eyes for a moment. "So I take this to mean you really are Amber?" he asked. "Yes…" she said softly.

Kai chose not to respond. Instead he squinted at the small, gold pendant. 'Kai and Amber. Friends Forever.' Kai ran his fingers over the tiny words engraved on the surface of the pendant. "And I thought I'd never see you again…I mean, I just went away suddenly..."

The blue-haired Russian boy got off from the bench and walked back towards Tyson's dojo. The two of them found a nice spot in the attic and settled down. "So…it's been so long since we last saw each other." She said, a small smile on her lips. "Wanna talk?" He shrugged and asked:

"So…how old are you this year?"
"Fifteen and a quarter. You?"
"Fifteen and a half."
"Is your surname still 'Slvosky' or has someone adopted you?"
"No. Still the same. And I still have my accent. How is it that you can cover yours up so well?"
"I guess I'm just perfect." Kai replied, smirking.
"Moron," Amber replied, standing up and kicking him.

After fifteen minutes Amber suddenly remembered that she had to go with Krys to get some art supplies. "Oh, I'm really sorry! I forgot that I had to go with Krys to get some new pencils and a new sketchbook as well! I'm really, really sorry we couldn't talk longer." With that, she got up and vanished out of the door. (I know I said that they can teleport but then let's say they don't like it that much.) Kai, feeling disappointed—he really had wanted to talk longer with her, for some reason(this is what I mean by saying he'll be OOC)—stood up and walked back to his bed.

Oh well…couldn't expect her to want to talk long… He turned so he lay on his stomach, trying to get comfortable inthe mattress.

Come to think of it I bet I'm not even her best friend now…heck…I guess I'm just less than a friend to her now…not that I care anyway.

Dranzer chuckled as he intercepted his master's thoughts.

Amber appeared in the room again. "Oh hey. Krys got her stuff already. She's out with the others and should be back any moment now." She looked at Kai "You don't seem too happy."

"If I tell you, you'll laugh."
"No I won't"
"Yes you will."
"Will not."
"…"
"I won't! Come on! Promise!" she made a puppy dog face which she knew Kai couldn't stand.
"…Fine…"
"Haha, I knew that would work!"

Kai rolled his eyes. "I…I was just thinking…I'm not your best friend anymore…right?" Amber sighed and put down her stuff. "Oh, Kai…you're such a moron!"
"I know."
"Of course you're still my best friend! I've waited for 8 years! Come on! What did you think I was doing?"
"Really?" (Okay, really, really OOC.)
"Really."

A/N: Sorry! It's time to go so this was a really hasty ending! Sorry about the OOC-ness! Bye! Please review!
