"I can't believe Lizzy hasn't woken up yet," Keiza said in surprise, putting a wet cloth on Lizzy's forehead. "It's been almost a day and Jack already woke up."

"Yeah," Aaliyah sighed in agreement. "Poor Lizzy, I wonder what happened. Her magic never failed like that before. Keiza nodded and touched Lizzy's forehead with her own, hoping that her unconscious friend would awaken soon. For some reason, Lizzy didn't wake up from the incident that happened the other day. The group wasn't concerned at the time because they knew that Lizzy could heal herself from any attack, and it usually would take a few hours. But 21 hours have passed and she was still limp on her bed. Now Keiza and Aaliyah have decided not to leave Lizzy's side until she woke up. Little Crow came into the room slowly and asked,

"Is Lizzy up yet?"

"No, buddy," Aaliyah answered. "It may be a little while longer before we see her up..."

"Okay..what's Keiza doing? Why does she so close to Lizzy like that?"

"Actually, Lizzy would do this all the time," Keiza said, shedding one tear. "If there was anyone extremely close to her, she and the other person would touch foreheads."

"Isn't that kind of weird?" little Crow said.

"A little but we all got used to it. Usually she would do this to her family and close friends. It just shows her love." Little Crow nodded and went towards Aaliyah, hugging her.

"Is something wrong?" Aaliyah asked him, hugging back.

"No,"the little boy responded. "Well...I don't think so. Yusei's okay but Jack has been quiet, especially towards James and Ryan."

"Did Jack tell you why?"

"No."

"Hm, that is a little strange." Suddenly, James came into the room and said,

"Will and I are going to the store to get some stuff. Anyone need anything?"

"Nope," Aaliyah said.

"Be safe, okay?" Keiza said. "I don't want you two to crash on your runners. You might die."

"Don't worry, Keiz " James smiled. "We'll be okay." He pecked Keiza's cheek and went out of the room, going to his destination.

"Awww," Aaliyah said, making Keiza turn red.

"Ew," little Crow said in response.

*******************************************************************

Ian, Dylan, and two of the kids were in the living room, trying to keep themselves occupied. Little Yusei was working on a small toy with a screwdriver and little Jack was watching TV with Dylan and Ian. They weren't talking, just minding their own business.

"Ryan, is the popcorn ready yet?" Dylan asked loudly.

"Almost!" Ryan exclaimed from the kitchen. After a few minutes, Ryan came into the room with two bowls of popcorn. "All right everyone, I got two bowls so that we can share!" Little Jack glanced at Ryan silently and then walked out of the room, saying nothing at all. Ryan looked at Dylan and Ian, wondering what that was about. The two merely shrugged while the other boy kept working in his little project. Ryan sighed and put the two bowls on the table.

"Can I ask you guys something?" little Yusei said.

"Sure thing!" Dylan smiled. "What's your question?"

"What did that guy mean by changing the present and future?"

"Well, he means that he wants to change time and everything around that."

"So why did he want me, Jack, and Crow?"

"You three are gonna be important for the future," Ryan smiled.

".......How do you know that? Are you from the future?" There was a long pause from Dylan, Ian, and Ryan. They had no idea that Yusei would figure it out so quickly, but then again he was a smart kid. However, the silence was long enough for the boy to make his own conclusion. "You are, aren't you?" Ian bit his lip a bit and slowly said,

"Well-"

"Why?" little Yusei asked.

"Why what?"

"Why didn't you say anything to us?"

"Um," Dylan said, thinking a bit. "It's really hard to explain, buddy. I don't know if you'll understand it."

"I can try! Please tell me." Dylan, Ian, and Ryan looked at each other, wondering what they should do. However, they decided to give it a try and explained it as carefully as they could. Soon, James and William came back to the house with a few bags from the store.

"Hey, we're back!" William exclaimed.

"Hey guys," Ian said. "Could you help us with something? We're having a bit of trouble..."

"Oh dear, what's the situation?"

"We..may have told Yusei what's been happening.."

"What?!" James exclaimed. "How much did you tell him?"

"Not too much but enough to know what's been happening. He was just getting curious, that's all."

"You can't just tell him these sort of things! He wouldn't understand since he's still a kid."

"Hey, he's been doing pretty well," Ryan said, walking to them. "The only problem we're dealing with is how to explain the Crimson Dragon." James' eyes widened a bit as he said,

"Dude, you can't tell him about that."

"Why not? He's gonna know eventually so why not tell him now!"

"You CAN'T say anything more of it, okay? No more talking of it."

"But why?!" little Yusei exclaimed, running to them. "Why do you keep things from us?" After a long explanation, the boy wanted to desperately know why this was happening.

"It's a very complicated process," James explained with a sigh. "I'm sure you won't understand it."

"Yes I could! I can understand a lot of things!"

"Okay, name a few."

"You all live in the same house because you probably don't have much money, my brothers and I live here since we have nowhere else to go..."

"What else?" James asked.

"Um.." little Yusei said, thinking. "Let me think..."

"James, I think that's enough questions," Ian said. "Just let him be."

"No, let's see if he can prove his case," James whispered. "I want to see him do it." Ian sighed, shaking his head. Ryan tried to reason with James but it only exploded into a big debate. Dylan and Ian tried to calm them down again but this time it was no use and a big fight started. William even came into the fight to try and make the group stop. Nothing would stop their big argument until little Yusei said,

"You fight a lot." The group stopped their actions and turned to him, realizing that he was watching the whole thing. "I thought you were a team of friends. Friends don't fight like this...and you guys fight over little mistakes!"

"We do sometimes," James said. "And then we have to deal with it as time passes. It's like a ghost." After sinking in the information, the boy started to have hot tears in his eyes.

"Whoa, what's wrong?" William asked, now extremely concerned. "Did James say something wrong?"

"Are me and my brothers here because you have to deal with the mistake of turning us into kids?" little Yusei exclaimed, crying. "Is that all we're here for?!"

"What, of course not!" Ryan said. "We're your friends." He approached little Yusei a tiny bit but the boy shook his head and ran upstairs, still crying.

"Oh no, what did we do?" Ian said sadly.
