BC Sol made it to the hospital. Suddenly Valt stopped and everyone stopped also. Up ahead, they saw two parked police cars in front of the large present building. No one was in them, but Unmei and Sasha blinked with puzzlement.

"What's going on?" Cuza asked outloud.

"I dunno." Isan raised an eyebrow.

Curiously, they walked to the two police cars. They took one peek inside each of them and then left them alone. Side by side, they walked to the back of the hospital, which was the indentification room. But then they stopped. They saw the doctors, nurses, a couple of police officers, and Kit who was standing outside of their conversation.

"Hey, Kit!" Valt called out.

"Huh?" Kit turned to him. "Valt, Honcho, Reo!" he ran to them.

"What's going on?" Valt asked.

"Boy, I got some major, MAJOR bad news!" Kit shook his head slowly.

"Tell us!" Rantaro replied tranquilly.

"Well..." Kit took a small gulp. "This may scare you, but Nina's body is gone-"

"It's what!?" Sisco gasped as he widened his eyes.

"Hey, chill!" Reo fanned him a little.

Hurriedly and suspiciously, Sisco ran to the room. The doctors and the cops ignored them as they continued to talk about what was going on. Slowly in stun, Sisco opened his left palm and his bloody bouquet sat on the floor. The story that Kitt told was true. A green velvet box was seen right corner of the room, looking like there was a small treasure. He carefully opened and took a peek inside of the box and found a diamond ring necklace covered in blood. The body of the his girlfriend wasn't seen in sight. At first, Sisco looked around to see if it was lying around somewhere, but it wasn't. It was truly gone. He looked at the big writing in blood.

I'M SORRY BUT YOUR LITTLE PRECIOUS GIRLFRIEND IS ALL MINE AND NOW YOU'RE NEXT

"Kara!" Reo walked up to his cousin.

"Reo?" Kara looked at him. "What brings you here?"

"Well, me, Valt, Rantaro, Unmei and BC Sol were planning to identify Nina's body today, but... Now all we see is this." Reo explained. "What happened?"

"Well..." Kara began to speak. "My dad came here just this morning as he usually do for his career. When he left his things in his office and to check on Nina's body, he just found this writing on the glass." she pointed to the glass where Sisco continued to glare at silently. "Next, we both found out that the door was open and her body gone." she pointed to the empty room. "The he decided to call the police and let the doctors, surgeons and nurses know about this. Not only that, but I bet that this would be all over the news."

"Who could've done this?" Kitt pondered to himself.

"What if... what if it was Lui all along?" Valt asked nervously.

"It can't be!" Unmei gasped shockingly and Rantaro widened his eyes. "No way! No one has heard an explosion, I checked with some nearby residents. I mean, why would he steal the body of a dead victim of he just killed? I swear he's never done that before!"

"I dunno." Valt shook his head. "He's a cold hearted guy, that's all we know. Whatever he's up to, he can't get away with this."

"Wait, no one heard that the ground was being destroyed?" Unmei asked Kara.

"No one." Kara nodded.

"Hmm... That's strange." Unmei pondered as she looked away a little.

"I'll say." Reo agreed.

"..." Sisco continued to stare at the glass with a writing. "Whoever you are, you're surely going to pay for this. But if it wasn't him, then who could've done this?" he said in thought.

More blood was dripping on Shu's chest. He heard that Sisco's girlfriend is killed by Red Eye. He started to tear up after hearing a helpless girl get killed by a psychotic killer.

"I'm so sorry. I couldn't get out of this! Please don't think it was really me doing this to you." Shu said. "He won't get away with this! Once I get out of here, I will kill him!"

"Hahaha! That's a bad idea! You can't get away from my world, Kurenai. She failed the game, and she is now mine forever. Would you like to see her?" Red Eye said, his lips curved into a sick and twisted grin on his face. Appearing before Shu was a figure. Nina. But, her skin is no longer tan. It's decay with hollow eyes, and blood falling from her eyes. Scars on her chest. Shu gasped at the sight of Nina. He wanted to turn away, but his eyes couldn't leave the sight of the poor girl.

"No..."

"Her soul belongs to me. She is too slow." Red Eye said.

"You bastard! Let her go!" Shu shouted.

"...Why...?" Nina spoke in a low voice. Shu finally got out of the grip from the dark. He came to her by grabbing her shoulders.

"Hey." Shu said. "Are you okay?" A crazed laugh is heard around them. Nina slowly looks up at him, crying in blood.

"...Why?" She asked. "Why did you give me to him?"

"What?" Shu asked. "I didn't do this! He's the one that abuse me. I'm trapped here! But, I'll stop him!"

"...He's too strong. You can't stop Spriggan." Nina said before disappearing. Shu reached for, breathing heavily in fear. More laughter is heard. He falls on his knees, crying in despair.

"Bastard!"

Later on in the afternoon at the Snake Pit, Boa was in the gym punching the bag. He somehow calmed her emotions down since he has heard the about passing of Nina. However, he still had some anger inside of him, as well as everyone else did in the Snake Pit. After he got done launching his bey into the bey stadium, he kneeled down, panting heavily and wiped off his sweat with a clean towel. The television near him was showing a comedy stand up show until it suddenly got cut off. On the screen now was a logo that read IMPORTANT NEWS BROADCAST. Boa started to do sit ups repeatedly as he ignored the sudden news broadcast theme.

"Good afternoon, this is an unbelievable news update", a anchor man wearing a proper suit as his face appeared on the television. "Just hours ago, a nurse called the police this morning to take a look at the green velvet box found in the identification room inside a local hospital. The head doctor, Dr. Sadonikusu, has reported that the body of  Nina Ganetto was stolen."

"WHAT?!" Boa stopped and stared up to the TV. He turned it up louder so he could hear better.

"The police are not sure about who was responsible, but the leader of BC Sol, Valt Aoi thinks that the vicious blader in Japan, Lui Shirasagi is behind all of this. At first, everyone agreed to his complete guess, however, they can't really say for sure." The female reporter explained. "And here's what all of the witnesses of Nina's body disappearance had to say."

"It's crazy." Christina shrugged her shoulders as she was seen on the camera that was taped at 1:00 p.m. "I mean, why would anyone take a dead body of a young woman who just died a couple of weeks ago?"

"Whoever did this will really suffer the consequences." Trad said at the camera furiously.

"It's Lui." Valt crossed his arms. "If it's him, he's going down. And if it's not, then who did it?"

"Um... Um..." Kit swifts his eyes side to side uneasily. "What do you want me to say?"

"Do you have anything you want to say?" the camera man asked Sisco, who had his face covered with his right hand.

"..." Sisco shook his head.

"Do you have any idea of who did this?"

"..."

"Can you speak?" the camera man asked gauchely.

"Get that f-(beep)-king camera out of my face!" Sisco threatened as he stomped away from him.

"Sisco!" Valt pouted.

"Well I'm out of impatience, you pussy punk bitch!" Sisco spat angrily at Valt.

Isan shoved Sisco violently. "Hey! Don't you EVER call him that!"

Sisco laughed sarcastically. "I'm sorry that you misheard me! Let me say it again! YOU ARE A PUSSY PUNK BITCH!!!"

Isan punched Sisco in the face, and then they started beating up each other nonstop. But Reo and Rantaro separated them from making a big scene.

"It is confirmed that the police will continue to investigate on Nina's sudden disappearance." The female reporter explicated. "If it really was Lui, then the government might have to take forces on defeating him once and for all. I'm Risa, and that's the news for this time." After the news report, the show started showing some commercials about gas prices.

In shock and fear, Boa laid down on the floor. He couldn't believe his eyes or his ears. No one has ever thought that anyone would still the body of a dead girl! Essentially, that sounded disgusting! The one behind all of this might be Shu, known as Red Eye, but they're not sure about that. Still, it seemed obvious to Valt apparently. Boa believed that at some sort, but he wasn't sure if the criminal identity was correct. He could tell that when Sophie gets back, she would be mad with terror. Did Red Eye steal Nina's body? Why did he do it? What are Ashram planning to do with us?

Wakiya sat alone on his bed, staring blankly at the big flat sized TV in front of him as it played some soap opera. He couldn't give his attention to anything as the horrific scream appeared in his mind again and again. Sisco Karlisle's girlfriend... demised before his ears. Why did she have to have this kind of ending? It made Wakiya shudder to think it could have been him too.

Sisco seemed really sad and raged after Nina's murder and disappearance which was natural for a real lover. He had vowed to find the person who is behind all of this. Wakiya can just wish him good luck with that. He wished he could help the former member of the Sunbat United in any kind but it was none of his business. But he hopes Valt and BC Sol will help Sisco.

Wakiya sighed as he stood up and walked out of the hotel room. The hotel was totally silent. Not a comfortable silence, but a creepy one which made him slightly tremble but he didn't care. He walked towards the kitchen and opened the vending machine to see if there was anything to eat.

"OMG! Can't believe I just left my wallet in there!" Wakiya wondered aloud as he stared at the vending machine, shaking his head and sighing loudly. Usually the butler takes care of these things so he never needed to ask for snacks, but now, after Nina's horrible death, Wakiya can't blame his companion if he just forgot to fill in.

Wakiya turned the corner and walked back to his hotel room and headed to the counter of the kitchen, pouring himself a glass of water. As he was doing the task, suddenly a creepy feeling sent a shiver down his spine. He felt like someone was watching him closely. Wakiya took a swift turn and he could swear he saw a faint shadow running and hiding in one corner. "What was that?!" He looked around and it was nothing. But who could it that be since there was only one key of this hotel room. "Whoever is pranking, then knock it off!" It'll better be a prank!

No, he must be wondering too much. Ganetto's death really shook him already. Wakiya let out another heavy sigh again and went to drink the water but at the very moment he felt something soft and heavy coming straight down on his face, making him stumble back and the glass falling out of his hand. He heard the loud sound of glass breaking into pieces and water splashing.

"Umm... hmm..." Wakiya tried to remove the soft thing which he recognized as a pillow or cushion from his face. But as more as he tried, it got heavier over his nose and mouth and made breathing almost impossible for him.

He tried his best to remove the pillow but the hands pushed the pillow more on his face, suffocating him beyond the limit. Every inch of his body thrist for a little air but he got no chance as the pillow became heavier by every second.

Fight it! You've not born to lose like this! Something from his inside told Wakiya to fight against the hands and by instinct; he gathered all his strength on his feet and kicked the owner of the hands as hard as he could. The person standing behind Wakiya grunted in pain and obviously, their hands became slightly loose and Wakiya didn't hesitate to take the chance and throw the pillow away.

Wakiya turned around and to his utter astonishment; he met the most unexpected pair of red eyes glowing at him, burning him in an immense fire. He was so surprised that he forgot to run away and the mysterious person got another chance to attack him.

What is happening? Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared before Wakiya, who gasped in surprise. Shu was grinning at Wakiya, covered in blood.

"Found you..." He sang.

"Shu...? Mind telling me why you have blood all over you?" Wakiya asked. "Who screamed out there yesterday?" Shu started to have dark red aura around him, and the sounds of eerie was heard. Like claws scratching the counter. It was so horrible. Wakiya covered his unseen ears, trying to block the sound. "Aggh! What the hell is that noise?"

"You can't run..." Shu says by walking the pace around Wakiya, who continues to cover his ears. Wakiya looks at Shu's grin, showing his razor teeth that is good for biting. He notices his eyes.

Wakiya backed away slowly, his blue eyes wider than ever before. He breathed heavily as everything slowly became clear in front of him. He could never believe if anyone told him that... Shu killed Nina so gruesomely.

"Why...?" Wakiya whispered. He made a run for it, but Shu keeps appearing around him. "Get away from me you creep!"

"You can't run, little dragon." Shu said. "Dolly failed the last game, and now you will fail this one." Wakiya was about to punch something's possessed his friend, but missed as Shu went behind him, chuckling at him. "You're too slow." He sang out.

"Where is that innocent girl?!" Wakiya asked in anger, trying to lessen his fear. "What have you done to her?!"

"She's in my world now. She is my little toy, and now you will be my next toy!" Shu said. Wakiya turned to punch Spriggan Requiem again, but again, Shu went around Wakiya and grabbed his dreadlocks. "Playtime is over for you, little dragon." He then launched his claws into Wakiya's stomach. Wakiya's eyes watered and his voice croaked. "Oh come on! Why?! You can't do this to me! I'm your friend for God's sake!"

Shu's horrifying laughter hit Wakiya's ears like a lethal poison as the figure didn't stop coming towards him. Wakiya was going to run but Shu's hands pushed him down violently. Wakiya was sure there were bruises forming on his shoulders.

"Please... Don't do this..." Wakiya cried loudly for mercy but it was no use. A devilish smirked formed on Shu's lips. Wakiya screamed in agony, and Shu's demonic laughter is heard. The body fell lifelessly on the ground. Shu wiped the blood on his face and forehead, smiling in delight. "So many souls to play with. So little time." He said in a demonic voice.
