"Get back on your side of the boat!" Kyoya snapped as he shot a glare towards the girl beside him. Kyoya had decided that she was to close next to him. Madoka grumbled to herself, scooting across from him. The boy had been, to put it nicely, very moody since the sun had risen. Neither had gotten very much sleep last night even after the storm had passed. Both were hungry and and stressed about their new situation. Who wouldn't after being swept far into the ocean? And both felt a feeling of fear rising, even if Kyoya wouldn't admit it.

Madoka made a small noise of disgust when Kyoya jumped up to lean over the boat. The sick feeling in Kyoya's stomach had finally become too much for him. "Well I hope you've learned your lesson." Kyoya slumped back down in his previous spot.

"What?" He breathed trying to relax.

"You were drinking last night." She replied simply. "I could smell it on you last night." Kyoya shrugged voicing that he didn't care and something about how he'd only had two or three.

They didn't speak to each other again after that. To Kyoya it felt like hours even though he figured it had only been a few minutes. Kyoya spent the next few hours trying to get a decent nap in. When it finally felt like he had fallen into a nice rest he was jerked awake when Madoka's voice filled the air.

"HEY!" She had jumped up, rocking the boat as she waved her arms in the air. It took Kyoya few seconds to process what was happening. "OVER HERE!" She was calling desperately to a fishing boat floating far in the distance. Kyoya could just barely make it out.

"It's too far." He watched it grow smaller. "They can't hear you." He went ignored by Madoka, who went on to call out for help until the boat had completely disappeared from sight. Kyoya closed his eyes to go back to sleep as Madoka angrily kicked at the old tarp. Kyoya slept all day and night while Madoka restlessly sat looking for anyone.

"I can't find her!" Hikaru panicky spoke as she caught up with Selen, who wore the same expression of worry. "She didn't come back to our room like you said she would!"

Nervously Selen replied "I...I don't know what to do! We've looked everywhere, no one has seen Madoka anywhere. Not since last night…"

"We have to tell someone...we need to find her!" Hikaru stopped walking to lean against the wall. "Who know what happened to her last night…"

"If we go to someone then we'll have to tell them about last night!" Selen protested. "The party! Hikaru everyone will be busted, we can't just-"

"She's gone Selen!" Hikaru pushed herself from the wall and drew closer to the dark haired girl. "She could be hurt, in trouble or-" Angrily she balled a fist. "She's is our friend and we can't just keep quiet about it because we don't want to get in trouble!"

"Hikaru!" Selen shouted after the other when she turned angrily away. Storming away with the obvious intention to get Selen followed.

Hana Amano smiled as she spoke to her husband over the phone. He had left for a business trip the same day her daughter had left for her school trip. She laughed, "okay honey, well I'm going to let you go. Someone is on the other line, probably Madoka checking in...I love you too sweetie!" Hana hung and then curiously answered the new caller. It was not Madoka. Instead her principle.

"Good evening Mrs. Amano."

"Hello…" She replied hesitantly. "Do you need something? Did something happen?" Hana moved to lean against the counter. A sense of worry washed over her.

"...I am truly sorry for the news I have for you" The woman's voice sounded like a mixture of exhaustion and sadness. "We've looked all day...the local police have gotten involved."

"Whats happened?" Hana's eyes widened. "Is my-"

"Your daughter and another student has been proclaimed missing."

"..." she didn't move from her spot neither did she speak for a moment.

"Though it's not crucial that you be here, we offer you to come if you like...we can get you on the soonest flight of you-"

"Yes...that would be great...thank you. You say another student went missing?"

"Unfortunately yes."

"May I know their name?" She asked.

"Tategami, er, Kyoya Tategami."

"Thank you…" Almost dazed she hung the phone up and placed it in the countertop next to herself. She stood silently for a moment likely trying to process the news. "This can't be happening" She mumbled. "This…" she stopped" cutting herself up with a choked sob.

Kotaru glanced at his ringing phone quickly. It was his sobs principal calling. The business man sighed as he abandoned the email he was typing and reached to pick it up. "Speak." He spoke, turning back to his email.

"Mr Tategami, I'm very...upset to be the one to have to deliver this unfortunate news to you…" The principal's voice spoke from the other line.

"Listen, whatever my son had broken or stolen I can assure you I will cover it,"

"N-no sir, you son hasn't done anything like that. There's been an-"

"Listen I'm going to have to let you go for now. Kotaru interrupted as he noticed the time. "I have a meeting to get to."

"I can assure you this is far more important than some meeting. Your son is-"

"This will have to wait" He spoke, standing up at the sight of his assistant in the doorway. She held a folder with the information and issues he would bring up in the meeting."I will be back in touch later tonight or early tomorrow."

"You son, he's miss-" Quickly he hung up the phone, missing whatever she had begun to say.

"Thank you" He said as he took the papers from his assistant, hurriedly walking down the hall to the meeting hall. His phone began to ring again and soon again and again. All went answered and he never did call back.

Two days passed after Hana found herself packing to take the flight. By now she had been informed in more detail and was less hysterical than she had been the previous nights. She urged her husband to continue his work while she took care of things. Hana bit her lip nervously and she double checked everything. Her flight would be leaving in a few hours. She took a deep breath and grabbed her bags and begun down stairs. She took her keys from the counter. She had one more thing to take care of.

Hana was surprised she still knew the way to the Tategami household. It had been so long since she'd driven there. They lived on the nicer side of town, in a large neighbourhood that didn't have many houses (the ones there were big enough to fill the space though.)

Hana hurried through the rain, up the steps and to the front doors. She rung the doorbell twice. She waited a minute before going to press it again. After the fourth time the door was finally opened to reveal Kotaru standing with his work phone pressed to her ear. He looked rather annoyed to be interrupted while working at home.

"Hang up the phone Kotaru." Hana told him calmly, though she felt anger building up inside. Even after three days he still didn't know about Kyoya's disappearance. He was seemingly too busy.

Reluctantly Kotaru hung the phone up, "what are doing here?" He questioned. It was quite odd after all he hadn't seen her in years.

"How dare you." She growled. "You son is missing!" She shouted "and all you do is work! You couldn't of been bothered to call them back, you ignored all those calls!?"

Taking a step back he spoke, "what is this about? What did you say about Kyoya?"

"He's missing Kotaru! And so is Madoka!"

"Wh-what?" Kyoya? Missing? "How come I wasn't informed right away!?"

Hana resisted the urge to slap him right there. Is he always like this? She wondered as he went on to complain and question her. No wonder Kyoya looks so sad whenever I happen to see him…

The third day approached slowly for the teens. Kyoya was still fighting seasickness by sleeping whenever he could and hanging off the boat when he was awake. He really was feeling miserable. Madoka on the other hand seemed to be holding up rather well. Besides starving and getting little sleep she had yet to get sick or breakdown in tears like Kyoya though she would've by now.

Though Kyoya supposed things could be worse. It had rained all night the previous night so the two had managed to gather some water. Still nothing to eat though and bother were feeling burned under the hot sun.

It was about midday when Kyoya was awoken by the sound of soft crying. Sleepily he sat up, looking over to Madoka, who he hadn't spoken to since the rain the previous night. She had her face buried in her arms as she leaned against the boat's edge. Slowly he moved to his knees next to her.

"Why are you crying?" He asked quietly.

"We're never going to be rescued!" She sobbed. "It's been three days and we haven't seen anyone or anything!" Kyoya watched her awkwardly. He placed a hand on her shoulder.

"We're gonna get out of this…" She reached to rub her eye.

"What makes you so sure?"

What did make him sure? "I'm not...but I mean they're all looking for us by now. I'm sure you parents are trying their best to get to you." He assured her. Both were quiet for a moment. Madoka looked over his shoulder and away from him. His words did make her slightly feel better…

"Island." She finally spoke.

"Yeah that's what we need!" He grinned. "We'll come across one eventuality and until then we just need to-"

"No look!" She cried as she stood. "An Island!"
