Hikaru watched on outside of the hospital as his eyes averted to the sunset. Sky was standing next to him just staring into space. A few footsteps coming towards them made Sky look backward to see who it was. Hikaru wasn't at all interested; he was too dazed by the sunset.

"Hikaru?" A small voice said from behind him. His head turned in an instant. That voice sounded like someone familiar. Then everything went black for him.

2 hours later

"Hey are you ok?" Lyru asked as she was next to his bed. Sky was on the other side peering forward. Hikaru moved into a sitting position on the bed and put his right hand over his eyes.

"Do you need a doctor?" Lyru asked. She had already had enough sleep and regained the energy she lost but the others were still fast asleep and the organoids were in this room getting a special stone to re-power them up.

"No I'm fine; I just thought I heard… it's nothing." Hikaru said looking toward Sky as he nuzzled Hikaru's hand.

"Who did you think you heard?" Lyru asked.

"It's nothing." Hikaru said.

"At least I hope it wasn't her. No I'm imagining things." Hikaru thought not noticing that Lyru had moved away from his bedside and over to the window. It was already dark and there looked to be a quiet peacefulness outside. The stars had started to shine throw the cloud of darkness as both moons were red in the sky.

"You know tonight looks like the same as when that wild zoid attacked my village. I was only 8 at that time and my brother was 9. Did a zoid like that attack your village?" Lyru asked turning back to look at him.

"I…I don't remember much about my childhood beside the fact that Tskiyu had found me. Sky was with me at the time but he was under piles of snow before Night was able to dig him out." Hikaru said as Sky moved and walked over to Lyru. She has already conquered over his trust and laid a hand over his head.

Lyru smiled at Sky and looked back at Hikaru. "He's very gentle after you gain his trust. He's just like Crescent, my organoid."

"Heh yeah a real fluff ball." Hikaru and Lyru started to laugh at the same time after what Hikaru had called his organoid. "Heh, I haven't gotten to laugh like that in a long time."

"I have a question for you."

Hikaru nodded signaling that she could ask it.

"How much do you know about Tskiyu?"

"There's not that much to know. He doesn't like talking about his past but he is a very kind person."

"I remembering saying his plan about destroying the Empirial Republic bases, why is that?"

"I don't think I'm allowed to tell you. All I can say is that something had happened to him that changed his way of thinking. Anyways it was those Empirial Republic's fault that a zoid that powerful attacked your village. I over heard Tskiyu and Night talking about a zoid which was created 7 years ago that destroyed countless villages. The Empirial Republic scientist were trying to create an all powerful zoid that they could control after seeing the Death Saurer and fearing that something such as though might happen again. Something went wrong and the zoid went out of hand. I remember Tskiyu calling it a Meteor Saurer."

"Wait but the Empirial Republic can't be held responsible for something like that. They couldn't have known it was going to go out of control. Why are you helping him destroy the bases?"

"I haven't given it much thought. It's just…I remember when after a year or so when Tskiyu had found me, he told me that it was the Meteor Saurer who had attacked my village as well. I guess after being with him for a year already and that I felt safe enough to stay around. He helped me improve of my piloting skills."

"I guess he's not as bad of a guy as my brother thinks."

"Now I have a question for you. Why do you fight for the Empirial Republic?

"I just think that there fighting for peace and I want to help achieve that. My brother also wants to fight for justice."

"Heh, that's a lame reason. How would you know if the Empirial Republic was just in its decisions?"

"Well it's no better then your reason!" Lyru shouted. Her eyes were darted straight at Hikaru. How could he say such things about the military who was trying to protect everyone? It wasn't that she agreed completely with the military but at least they were trying. But Hikaru was fighting just because of what one person was telling him.

Tension breached the room and everything was silent. They looked away from each other as Sky back over to Hikaru and laid down on the floor.

"I'm sorry. That was uncalled for." Lyru said apologizing.

"Yeah, same here. I guess I'm just frustrated over something. I shouldn't have taken that anger out on you."

"Tell me about it." Lyru moved over to Hikaru's beside again and laid her head on top of her arms and on the bed like what she used to do when her mom would tell her a story. Kane would be already asleep in his room.

"Fine I'll tell you. I do remember these bits and images from when I was younger before Tskiyu found me. I lived with this family and we seemed happy. I had a sister too. Heh she acted sort of like you, stubborn."

"Hey." Lyru picked her head up at that comment then put in back down to hear more of his story.

"Anyway she was a cute little kind. Probably about 7 or so at the time. She loved zoids since I remember an incident when she hugged Sky like crazy." Hikaru then looked down. "I remember seeing my house on fire and I didn't see them ever again after that. The area was covers in smoke. Only Sky was by my side and was trying to stop me from going inside to try and save or at least see if anyone was still inside."

At this point Hikaru's bangs shadowed his eyes but Lyru was able to tell that he was trying to hold back his emotions. Lyru then moved up and wrapped her arms around his neck giving him a hug, actually human contact that he longed for. Hikaru knew that even though Tskiyu was his friend as treated him as a brother he would never have this contact with him. He allowed Lyru to keep him in this hug for a while. Then he couldn't hold back anymore tears started to be shed and it trailed down his cheeks. Sky sat on the floor watching them knowing not to do anything. This hug allowed him to remember a faint memory of his sister,

"Big brother." A little girl would say as Hikaru was about to leave in wonder with Sky. She had long but not too long navy blue hair. Her grey eyes were larger as to begging. "Can I go with you exploring today. Mommy and Daddy said I could if you look after me."

"I don't know you should probably stay here."

"Please big brother"

"Ok ok you can come with me and Sky."

"Yay!" The little girl jumped onto Hikaru and wrapped her small arms around his giving him a great big hug.

"Hey are you ok?" Lyru ask as she moved away from the hug. Hikaru was jerked back into reality and looked at her.

"Yeah I just thought that…it's nothing."

"Hey Hikaru, can I ask you something?" Lyru asked as she moved back to the seat next to his bed.

"Alright."

"Are we friends?" Hikaru looked at her for a moment not knowing what to say. He didn't know what to say. Were they? He had talked with her more that anyone that he could remember beside Tskiyu so did that make them friends? He had stopped the attacks that Tskiyu would have preformed to destroy her and her friends. Did that make them friends?

"Well I think we are. I guess I can say that you saved me not once but twice from your other friend and helped me out that time."

Hikaru smiled as he thought to himself about making a new friend. "I guess we are friends, aren't we."

"Then as a friend I want to ask what you had just remembered."

"Alright, I remembered that I used to have this little sister. She was stubborn too, just like you."

"Hey" Lyru shouted at that comment but allowed him to continue. "What happened to her?"

"I don't remember."

"Oh."

"Don't worry it'll come back to be someday. My memories." Hikaru said as he looked up at the ceiling."

"I'm going to go see how my other friends are doing. I'll be right back."

"Alright."

Lyru got up and left his room to walk down the hall to Kane's room first. She knocked first and heard a voice shout 'Come it'. Lyru turned the door knob and entered to see Kane sitting up on the bed.

"You should be laying down Kane, you over exhausted yourself."

"I can't lay down now knowing that I was brought here by my enemy."

"Come on Kane your enemy. You can't say that. Hikaru's not that bad." Lyru said trying to persuade her brother to rest some more.

"You know his name!" Kane shouted in an outraged voice.

"Why wouldn't I? I meet him before and he's my friend."

"You can't be serious! He tried to kill us with his friend."

"So he saved us too."

"He's evil. He destroyed colonies already and he's going to continue destroying them until we can stop him."

"He is not. Hikaru is very kind as well as his organoid. They aren't as bad of a person as you call them to be."

"You meet his organoid too. Did it hurt you?" Kane shouted.

"That's insane it would not." Lyru shouted back. Kane gave up on the yelling and started to speak in a more calm matter.

"I trust you with your decisions but it's just that what's been happening, I don't know anymore. I just don't want you to get hurt by him."

"I'll be fine. Heh, he would save me even. We're friends."

"I just hope you know what you're getting yourself into. Now get out I want to sleep."Lyru looked at him and smile at his acceptance as he slide unto the covers and closed his eyes. She exited the room quietly and went to see Moon and Osorus before going back to see Hikaru.
