"Robin? Why... why is he here!?" Kuri thinks to herself. She asks him, "Where am I?"
"This is my apartment," Robin says.
She looks around the room. "Robin's apartment...?" she thinks. "I'm in this guy's apartment..."
"Do you remember?" he asks.
Kuri's eyes widen. She looks on the couch. Robin's uniform, the suit he wore, his mask...
"After you used that power," Robin says, "you fell down, asleep."
"I remember..." Kuri thinks. "That low voice..." She looks at him. "That mask..." She stands up and walks over to the couch. She picked up the mask. "But... I didn't notice..." She goes to him. "The deep color of his eyes..." She placed his mask over his eyes. "Robin...?"
"Why?" she asks.
"To get my memory back," he says, "I have to get the Snow Crystal."
"Your memory?"
"I got my powers when I was ten." Robin said. "But I can't remember anything else. Not anything from my past. But...I did remember you, Kuri, I mean, Chaos."
"I have these dreams where you were calling to me, telling me the secret to my memory was the Snow Stone." Robin looked up. He looks at Kuri. "What about you? You're looking for it too, right?" he says. "Why?"
"Well... I'm..." She scratches her head. "I don't really know why. But I remember I must find and protect it."
"I see."
"So that's his reason," Kuri thinks.
Their eyes meet. Robin puts his hand on her shoulder. " Kuri's heart jumps. "Here's your bag," he says, holding up her bookbag. She takes it and he leaves the room.
She lifts the star-shaped watch from her skirt. "He brought this for me... A broken pocket watch."
Robin stands by a dresser. "Night has fallen already." He holds the handkerchief Kuri dropped at the masked ball. He kisses it gently, as Kuri, at the same time, kisses the watch.
Kuri headed home, and in a swarm of machinery, a man landed in front of her; Cyborg.
"I am Cyborg." She said. "I have the Snow Stone, and I am the one you have sworn to protect, Chaos."
Kuri was full of both hope and despair.
