Tobe and Garu waited and waited. They every once in awhile, gave bad looks at one another, then continued waiting. They stayed till uncle Dumpling, Linguine, and Ho told them it was time to close. Garu and Tobe headed out.
Instantly, Garu pulled out his sword and pointed it straight at Tobe. Tobe drew his sword too and faced it at Garu. Garu still believed that Tobe was at the bottom of all the crazy mix ups that happen today. Tobe was extremely angry because he believed that Garu truly wrote that letter to ring-Ring to hurt Pucca and manipulated his letter. Tobe drew back his sword. He said, "Look Garu as much as I want to fight you, I can't find the strength. I can't believe you would do such a thing to Pucca. Honestly, you don't know how good you had it. Pucca loves with all your flaws and is a sweet, brave girl." Gau thought Tobe had something up his sleeve, so Garu pushed forward. Tobe backed up but continued, "I would do anything to have a girl like that." Tobe quickly drew his sword as Garu was full of rage and heading straight toward him at full speed. Clink, Clink, Clink…Tobe went left, Clink..Garu right..Clink, Clink. They kept going at it for a good five minutes. Garu stopped he couldn't get the image of Pucca so sad and betrayed out of his mind. He didn't know what happened, but knew he had to fix it. Tobe saw this as Garu's retreat. Garu ran ff and Tobe yelled, "I'm going to win her over! You'll regret ever letting her go!"
Pucca was up in her room. She had so much in her mind and too much pain in her heart to handle. She replayed the events that occurred in her mind. She imagine it differently. She changed it to where it was her receiving the letter from Garu instead of Ring-Ring. But she knew it wasn't like that and now probably never will be. Ring-Ring is so pretty, talented, and can have whatever she wants when ever. Pucca thought she didn't stand a chance. As she was thinking about the letter, She looked on her bed and there it was. Oh how she wished it could've been from Garu or Tobe, but they had already choose the love of their lives.
Garu who was running at the speed of light, heard what Tobe said, and stopped. His blood started to boil as he stood there frozen, angry, and shocked. " "I'm going to win her over! You'll regret ever letting her go!" played again and again. Who did he mean he was going to win over. Was it Ring-Ring? Was it Pucca? No, it couldn't be, Garu really wanted it not to be Pucca! He stood there annoyed and frustrated. He has always been strong, but this brought him weak to his knees. He thought about how the day was supposed to play out, the correct way. He imagined Pucca smiling, jumping up and down with joy, and he too would be happy. But the sad, sour face Pucca wore popped back up. Garu knew he should've ran to her at that moment, but he froze. He didn't know what to do, so he headed home to plan a way to fix thing between Ring-Ring, pucca and him.
Pucca thought, " Who am I to stand in the way of their happiness? I don't,... No, I shouldn't interfere especially since Ring-Ring and Jing-Jing are so happy. I wouldn't want them in the same boat as me." She decided to give up on love and boys. She probably will never understand Garu. Pucca will probably never hear the final words Tobe wanted to tell her the night of the movie. It was decided, she would avoid all contact and disappear in front of the happy four.
Tobe was rushing home talking to himself. "That dang, Garu, who does he think he is! Just because he has some good Ninja skills doesn't give him the right to treat Pucca that way. Honestly why would he do this to me! If he was going for Ring-Ring all this time, he could of let me tell Pucca how I feel, but no he had to bring Jing-Jing in to this. Even though I'm evil, this is too low even for me. Now what am I going to do? I don't want to hurt Jing-Jing, but I don't want to lead her on either. Oh Pucca! I'm so sorry! She's the one who truly is in pain. I couldn't imagine the pain of having the one I truly love confess feelings to someone else right in front of me! I don't know what I'm going to do!"
Ching and Abyo had just finished their late Ninja practice. Ching was going to get freshen up and then head over to Pucca's. Abyo was going home and then going to check out how his marvelous plan went with Pucca. Abyo was itching to tell Ching about Garu finally revealing that he had feelings for Pucca. Ching had been a little bit bitter since Garu was making her best friend sad. Abyo wanted to explain that Garu, his best friend was also sad because of Pucca. But the fabulous Abyo came up with the best solution to help everyone. Just then,Tobe spotted Garu who looked really down. Abyo ran to him, Ching even though she really wanted to ignore him, went along.
Pucca decided to open the letter that wasn't from Garu or Tobe. She broke the seal and took it out. She found it strange that the envelope had sent address, just Pucca and the Gong-Rong address right in the center. She unfolded the letter and began to read it.
Tobe and Ching caught up to Garu. Abyo was expecting Garu to be super happy, but instead was devastated. Abyo said, "Garu, what's wrong... what happen?" Ching had never seem Garu so down it was like he was a completely different person. Garu slowly began to tell them what happen and how he believed it was Tobe who manipulated everything. He also mentioned that Tobe was trying to win Pucca over. Garu told them that he really messed up with Pucca and she probably hates him. Ching understood what Garu was saying, but was more worried about Pucca. Ching said, "Pucca must have been crushed." Garu nodded. Abyo said, "Ching you have to explain everything to Pucca. She trusts you and would really need you right now." Ching said, "Yeah, you're right. Don't worry Garu I'll get this all sorted out, and I know Pucca, she wouldn't hate you." "more like couldn't," said Abyo as he patted Garu on the back. Garu felt a little more calm but had a lot of things still on his mind to worry about.
Pucca read the letter which stated,
Dear my beautiful Pucca,
I have searched long and far after our encounter, but couldn't find a girl like you. You're my ideal vision of beauty. I know I couldn't get in between you and Garu, and trying to get rid of him wasn't a good idea. But he did help me deceive you into thinking I was him. I'm not trying to drag him under the boat or anything, just putting that out there. My beloved I don't think he deserves such a precious jewel like you. I would have again told you that I'm super rich and famous, but it didn't help me last time. So I won't use that technique anymore. You're not like other girls, you can't be easily pleased with money or gifts. That's one of the things I like about you. You love those around you wholeheartedly, for who they are, not for what they have. While my time away from you, I have changed for the best. I'm not the same overconfident jerk I was before. You can even ask Jasper. He was quite shocked in how quickly I changed. It is all because of you and I want to thank you for helping me realize that the way I was acting was so ill mannered. My change was for the best and I like who I have became. Well I hope I turned into someone you can be proud of and maybe give me a second chance. I'll be arriving to the deck in a day or two. I really want to see you and for you to see the new me. I want to be honest, I'm not going to be staying for long. I'm going to visit a neighboring village for a week or two and would be happy for you to join me. I know it's fast, but I'm not forcing you to come. I know you're very independent and capable of making tough decisions. If you were to come you would have full control and can return home at any moment. All I ask is for you to come see me when I dock whether you come along or not is your decision. Sincerely, L.G
Pucca read it over and over again. She thought to herself, "Just great as soon as I give up on boys, here's one who wants to meet me. Hmm L.G. who could that be. Rich and Famous? It sound familiar, but who is it exactly?" She tried to remember but L.G. didn't ring a bell. She put on some music to help he focus. Just then it hit her. "Oh now I remember it's Lazlo Gozalotovish. The self centered guy who would dance and show off all the time. Well, he did say he changed, and I could really use a break from here."
