Would he be forgiven if he told Sakaki Yuuya the truth? Fuuma Tsukikage stays silent as he watches the other Lancers file in to the room, waiting for Reiji to show up. Serena stands by him, not because they are friends but because she'd rather be near him than either Sawatari Shingo or Dennis Macfield. He can agree with that. Both of them are a little too energetic for his liking. She greets him and nothing more. So unlike her counterpart.
He remembers their brief encounter. Hiiragi Yuzu had also been energetic but easy to talk to. She didn't complain about being carried and actually thanked him for saving her. Behind his mask, he grit his teeth, regretting leaving her in the iceberg field to fend for herself.
Sure, Serena was given priority over Yuzu, but Tsukikage felt responsible for her disappearance. No. They were both to blame. Him and his brother. Had Hikage waited, they could have split up to watch over the two girls. Hikage could have looked after Yuzu and he could still have tailed Serena. Or vice versa.
"You're late, Sakaki Yuuya!" Sawatari's sudden outburst makes him look up. There stands Yuuya, who looks tired but oddly calmer than Tsukikage thought he would be. He wants to go over to the boy and explain that Hiiragi Yuzu's disappearance was his fault, not Yuuya's. That the one to bear that sin was him.
But this is not the time nor the place. Akaba Reiji appears and tells them that they'll be going to the Synchro dimension first. When he places the card given to him into his duel disk, he keeps an eye on Yuuya and asks himself again. Would I be forgiven for my sin?
