Inside the stadium ...
"Sharlene is doing a good job." says Leon.
"That's my sister, I doubt she can win." said Jillian.
"How's the situation?" Tokoha asks the redhead.
"Regardless of the result, we must trust Emi-san ..." he answers.
"... I won this." said Sharlene, who was attacking with her vanguard.
"Not yet!" says Emi, who defends herself ... but Sharlene pulls out a critic, which causes Emi to lose the fight.
"I'm sorry captain ..." she answers, who arrives where Chrono and Tokoha are.
"Don't worry, you did the best you could ... Aichi-san would be proud of you." Chrono answers her.
"Yei! Leon-sama saw my victory!" said Sharlene, who hugs him.
"Huh, it's not fair that only you hug Leon-sama!" Jillian says, who separates them.
Meanwhile in Card Capital ...
"It shows that they will never change." said Misaki, who was watching TV.
"He either." Miwa answers, who pointed to Kamui who was in a corner.
"Do you think they will be fine?" asks a female voice.
"Don't worry ..." Mikuru replies to that person.
"Yeah Mom, we should trust Chrono-kun and my sister," Mamoru replies to his mother.
Back in the Tournament ...
"Well, it's my turn ..." Tokoha tells his companions.
"Yeah, uhm ... good luck." Chrono responds nervously.
"Don't worry, once I win, only your victory was missing and then we will go on to the next phase." she answers.
In the meantime...
"You're on time." Kai tells Kazuma.
"How are things going?" Kazuma asks.
"They haven't arrived yet, and that's what we worries us ..." Oliver was saying.
"They arewondering where we are?" said a voice ...
"I remind you that we only came to finish with our biggest problem, Sendou Aichi will leave it for later ..." Chaos Breaker answers Steve and someone else.
"Well, when did we start?" asks Steve.
"Let's wait a few minutes" answers Chaos Breaker.
Back in the block A match
"Stand Up Vanguard!" Both girls say
"Well let's start..." Noa tells the others.
"heh heh," Saori laughs. Suddenly a strange earthquake feels all over the place ...
"What is that?" Tokoha asks him.
"Jilian get out of here!" Leon tells Jilian, as he leaves with all his team from the arena.
"Emi-san, I'll go for Tokoha, you look for Aichi-san and the others and get out." Chrono tells the brunette. While everyone evacuated Emi manages to meet his brother and his friends.
"Emi-san, where are the lovebirds?" Kazuma asks, there's a noise in that and everyone worries ...
"Aichi, let's go see." Kai tells the blue-haired.
"You guys stay here please, Kai and I will look for them" Aichi replies to Kai, who then gives directions to the others. Once Kai and Aichi enter the building, they see that there is a lot of rubble but ... as they were removing the rubble, they found something that left them stunned.
"Anjou-san, Anjou-san, are you okay?" Aichi tells him, who starts moving Tokoha.
"Aichi-san, Kai-san, where am I?" she asks.
Flashback ...
"Emi-san, I'll go for Tokoha, you look for Aichi-san and the others and get out." Chrono said to the brunette, who at that moment decides to go for Tokoha.
"Tokoha let's go!" Chrono shouted at him, but it was too late, a series of debris fell on them.
End of Flashback ...
"Aichi, I found him" Kai tells the blue-haired, but Tokoha couldn't believe what he saw.
"Chrono!" she yells, but the redhead doesn't react.
"The best thing will be to take him to the hospital." Aichi told him.
"It won't be necessary." a voice resounded.
"Shion!" says Tokoha very happy to see his friend.
"The best thing will be for you two to get up the plane, we will go for the others and we will catch you in Japan as soon as we can." Aichi tells Tokoha.
"Shion ... thanks." says Tokoha when boarding the plane, at that moment he turns to see Chrono and a small tear escapes him.
"Tokoha, if you cry, Am will kill me, and I don't want to think about what Chrono would do to me." the blonde replies, who tries to calm her down.
"I'm sorry, but it's ... that I don't want to lose anyone else anymore." Tokoha tells him, who cleans his tears.
"Well, The important thing now is to take Chorno to the hospital and find out who did this and why?" the blonde replies.
"Yeah ..." Tokoha responds to him somewhat discouraged, since she thought that possibly Chaos Breaker had something to do.
(Upon arriving in Japan...)
"How is Chrono?" Tokoha asks seeing Ibuki leave the room.
"He's stable, but the doctors want him to rest." Ibuki answers, at that moment she stands up from her place.
"Mikuru-san ... I'm sorry!" Tokoha apologized, but Mikuru didn't respond.
"Tokoha, I think the best thing for now is leave this place." his mother told her.
"I don't want ... no, rather ... I can't leave things like that!" she said with a litte depressed tone, as she thought it was her fault.
"Mikuru-san, I'm asking you too, I'm in debt to Chrono for many reasons." Mamoru told him.
"It's okay you can stay ..." she replies with a smile
"Wow, this is a good drama and I didn't bring my popcorn." said Ren, after talking with Mikuru the doctor says they can go to see Chrono, but one at a time.
"Why don't you go first? It's obvious that you have a lot to talk about." Mikuru tells Tokoha.
"But ... you are her relative Mikuru-san." she answers, but Mikuru insisted so it was Tokoha who was first to entered in the room...
"It's weird to see you so calm, you know, when you're not fighting or doing some crazy thing to protect us, you're like a child ... although... while you're looking for a way to protect us, but... who protects you?" Tokoha thoughts.
"Chrono, I don't know where to start ... but thanks for everything, you offered me a place to stay, you helped me when I needed it and you saved my life, so... thanks." Tokoha told him, who was about to leave.
"One more thing ... if we get out of this, I ... I'd like to have a date like the one we had in France." she added, as she left the door but... she finds someone.
"heh, so you already had a date?" Mikuru said, making a mocking laugh.
"Well ... by the way, what are you doing here, Mikuru-san?" Tokoha tells her trying to change the subject.
"Your brother talked to me and told me what happened ... but I can't believe that child has done it up to this point." Mikuru replies.
"what are you talking about?" Tokoha asked.
"Your brother knew that you two had a discussion and sooner or later something would happen, that's why he asked Chrono to protect you." Mikuru answers.
"Now I feel more guilty about what happened to him." Tokoha says embarrassed.
"Come on, put that face up, I'm pretty sure that even if Mamoru didn't ask him, he would do it." Mikuru answers.
"And why?" asks Tokoha
"Are you sure you don't know?" Mikuru answers, smiling at her.
"I have a slight suspicion, but ..." she thought.
"Chrono is awkward, reckless, stubborn and ..." Mikuru said, but is interrupted by Tokoha.
"And it always worries others." Tokoha tells him, this makes both laugh.
"But theres is something I am very sure is that he loves you very much, so ... Welcome to the family Tokoha-chan!" Miukuru tells him, while hugging Tokoha.
