Meanwhile, with Dan,

Dan, Runo and Joe hung out everyday. Soon, it was time for Chan to move in with Joe. The three of them were in the airport.

"Man! When is the flight going to land?" asked Dan. He was quite impatient.

"Slow down, you doofus! It'll land soon, if you hold your horses!" Runo scolded Dan.

"I. WANT. FOOD!" whined Dan.

Runo was on her nerves. She couldn't tale it so she stuffed a hamburger in his mouth.

"Mmmfghtfgfd" Dan talked with his mouth full.

"Stop it, guys! I think I see her coming." said Joe, who had spotted Chan.

Chan waved to Joe and ran to him with her luggage. The two lovebirds hugged.

"I missed you Joe!" said Chan.

"Me too." replied Joe

Chan looked up to Dan and Runo. "Hey brawlers!" she said.

"Hi Chan. Long time, no see." said Runo. Dan was still chewing his food but he waved to her. Chan looked at him and then looked at Runo.

"He was a doofus so I stuffed his mouth." said Runo. Chan giggled.

"Lets go, shall we?" asked Joe.

A 45 minutes later, they reach Joe's apartment.

"Wow, nice place!" said Dan.

"Thanks. My mom got it when I told her Chan was moving in." said Joe.

"Speaking of, where is Mrs. Brown?" asked Chan.

"She's moving in the next door beside ours. I didn't want her to be left out." said Joe.

"That's cool." said Runo. "If it was anyone else, they would admit their parents in an old age home." said Chan.

Dan thought, 'Maybe I shouldn't have moved out. My mom and dad are alone now.'

Runo noticed that Dan was a bit disturbed. So she said,

"We'll let you guys settle in. Dan and I have something we need to do."

"Okay. Bye!" said Chan/

"Dan, could you start your car downstairs?" asked Runo.

"Oh, sure" said Dan as he went downstairs.

"Joe, do me a favor . Can you try to track Shun's location?" asked Runo.

"What for?' asked Chan.

"Dan's been down lately because of that and I think Shun and Alice have some apologizing to do." replied Runo.

"I had no idea. But me and Chan will do all we can." said Joe.

"Thanks! Hey, lets celebrate at the cafe tonight! Meet us there?" asked Runo.

"Awseome!" said Chan.

Runo and Dan left to Dan's apartment .

"Hey Dan, why were you upset today?" asked Runo.

"Just thinking. What if I made the wrong decision of moving out? My mom and Dad are alone now." replied Dan

"Aww...I understand Dan, but I think your parents wouldn't want you to be down for this. " said Runo.

"No, its just, I left them and..."

"Oh, Dan. Stop worrying. You've been under a load of pressure lately and don't add this. I understand how you feel." said Runo.

"Thanks kid. You know just what to say." said Dan.

Runo kissed Dan. "My pleasure, doofus" replied Runo.

Hey guys. I know that I've been focusing on Dan and Runo so now, its time for...

"Alice, come on! We're running late!" shouted Shun.

"I'm coming, honey! Where's my bag?" asked Alice

"I have it! We have to go! Julie will be furious! Last time, she made me strip-dance!" said Shun.

"Okay, coming" said Alice, as she locked the house door.

Shun and Alice moved in to a beautiful house in Moscow. They both had contacts with Julie and Marucho. Every month , Julie hosted a brawler get-together. Julie, after moving in with Billy, had gotten the idea of this reunion day. Marucho would fly to Australia only for this day. Alice and Shun used Masquerade's transport card to go to Australia. All the brawlers, except for Dan and Runo would attend.

Soon, all the brawlers meet at Julie's place.

"Hey Shun and Alice!" Julie said.

"Hi Julie. " said Alice. "Hey Marucho."

"Hey Alice." said Marucho.

"Good to see you Shun." said Billy. "You too, Billy." replied Shun.

"Great! Everyone's here!" squealed Julie.

"Everyone?" asked Shun. "Two are missing if you didn't count properly."

Everyone's expression saddened.

"I wonder what Dan would be doing now..." said Marucho.

"And what Runo would be doing too.' added Julie.

"It would be better if those two were here." said Billy

"We should have tried to contact them. Its our fault." mourned Alice.

Shun didn't say a word. He was in deep thought. 'Its my fault. I shouldn't have left without telling him. I'm sorry Dan. I never realized my mistake. ' He just walked to the terrace, in silence.

"Shun's taking this harder than all of us" said Billy.

"Why wouldn't he? He and Dan had known each other since the age of 3." said Marucho.

"They've been through everything together. They knew when to leave each other alone, like when Dan left Shun alone when his mother..." said Alice.

"Someone should go and talk to him." suggested Julie.

"No. In this case, even I can't do anything." replied Alice.
