Chapter 5: Consolation

It had always been rare for Crow to be the one to come crawling into Yusei's bed. Once he was past the age where most nightmares bothered him, generally Yusei was the one to seek Crow out during the occasional thunderstorm.

But considering the circumstances, Yusei found it understandable.

Crow had remained impassive while Sector Security took Kalin away and all the way up to the point where'd they split up from Jack.

Even then, Crow didn't brake yet, though Yusei had half expected him to.

But when the younger had decided to crash with Yusei that night and then when he'd approached Yusei in the dark with tears in his eyes, Yusei only held open his arms and hugged Crow as the boy let out all the tears he'd been holding in up until this point.

Probably ever since he first realized Kalin had gone insane.

Morning came to find a reality much different than the day before.


Short, sad little chappy. But it wanted to be written. And it fits into the collection well. And I've just realized that all these are pretty much from Yusei's point of view. Huh. Not what I intended.
