Aichi blushed. Then a second later he smiled back. "Yeah!"

Suddenly Ayumi went to Emi's side.
Ayumi: Lying again, aren't we?

Emi blushed
Emi: Shut up...

The gang went outside the cardshop because it was probihited to eat there. Kai and Miwa were left at Cardcapital.

Miwa: Sooo? What do you think of the tournament?

Kai: it was boring. There were no challenging cardfighters at all.

Miwa: Eh?! I don't believe you. To me there were many shockers...

There was silence for a while.

Miwa: It was just like your first tournament with her.

Kai pushed his deck to the table making a loud sound.
Kai: Miwa, that's enough.

Miwa: Sorry did I hit a nerve there?

But something unexpected happend. The shop doors opened and a figure with a cloak walked in. Miwa was the first to look at the figure

Miwa: I'm sorry, but i think the shops closed

Kai looked at the figure, and the moment he saw her eyes, his eyes widened with shocked. The figure noticed this and lowered her hood and said

??: S-sorry, I got the wrong cardshop.
The figure was about to leave when Kai rushed towards her hand.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hime: Guys. I'm just gonna go back a bit. You wait here

Aichi: Ok!

Hime was humming happily when she suddenly saw a weird scene right in front of her.

A figure was just outside cardcapital and Kai was holding her hand like he wanted to talk to her something. The hood slowly went down, and the person's face can be seen.

Hime: !!!!!

The figure looked at Kai with worried eyes
??: LET GO OF ME!

The moment the figure shouted, it dashed away in the streets leaving Kai dumbfounded.  Later Azami went rushing to Hime side.

Azami: Hime! What wa that?

Hime just looked at the ground
Hime: It was Hina
