Kuwabara pushed his way through the crowd to where Okubo had been, but by the time he got there Okubo and his family were walking away. "Okubo! Hey, Okubo!" Kuwabara called, trying to catch up with the other boy, but in the crowd Okubo didn't hear him calling.
Kuwabara's shoulders slumped when he finally lost sight of Okubo. "Man, I'll never catch him now."
He turned to walk back to his family, only to realize he'd gone farther than he'd meant to, and didn't know the way back. "Uh oh," Kuwabara said. "Mom's not going to be happy."
Kuwabara went back the way he thought he might have come from, but didn't see any sign of his parents or anything that looked familiar. His heart rate sped up as he started to worry. What if he never found his family again? What if some stranger decided to kidnap him and sell him as a slave or something? Or what if aliens like the ones on TV stole him and took him to outer space? What if he was attacked by clowns?
Completely panicked, Kuwabara rushed around, trying desperately to find someone, anyone, who was the least bit familiar. That's why when he saw Urameshi, his relief was so great that Kuwabara actually hugged the other boy. "Urameshi, it's you!"
Urameshi shoved him away. "What are you doing, stupid?"
Kuwabara blushed bright red. "I was trying to strangle you of course!"
Urameshi glared. "You were hugging me."
"Was not!"
"Whatever," Urameshi said. "I'm outta here."
Kuwabara felt that panic coming back. Urameshi couldn't leave him here! "Wait up, Urameshi! I'm coming with you!"

To those who thought this was going to end badly for Kuwabara...What on earth gave you that idea? *evil grin*
