"Okay everyone, I have an announcement to make!" James exclaimed. "So let's come to the living room for the.....thing."

"Ok!" everyone else responded. They gathered into the living room, some where sitting on the floor and some were not. James stood in front of them and took a deep breath.

"Here we go," he thought. He cleared his throat and said, "Now, I'm not good at these sort of things so please bear with me. It's a little difficult."

"You got this, bro!" William cheered.

"Thanks Will. Anyway, I think it's time that we tell the truth to our little friends."

"Huh?" little Crow said. "What do you mean?"

"It's just that when we met you three," James explained. "...you were quite a bit older than you were now."

"Eh?"

"Let me try to explain this carefully.." And so James did his bests to elaborate to the kids of what had occurred, even though the rest of the group had to help him out because he couldn't figure out the right words to say. As soon as he finished, he was completely hesitant on how the boys would take all in the information. In fact, he wasn't sure if they would completely understand it when he was first thinking of what to say to them. But he believed that they would get a good idea of what's been going on based on what he found out from Yusei the other day. After James and the group elaborated the situation, he said to the kids, "Do you understand all of that or is it a bit confusing?"

"It makes sense," little Jack said. "I probably won't remember this though." The other two nodded in agreement.

"Okay but through it all, we are all sorry that you got roped into this mess. Lizzy, don't you say a word!! We are all getting the blame because that's how a group is. When one gets the blame, we all share the blame!"

"Aww, you're sweet, James!" Lizzy smiled happily.

"Despite shat just happened with the word 'sweet'," William began, "James does have a point. We're all sorry for this."

"I'm also sorry about the other day," Ryan admitted. "Paying attention is not my expertise except when playing games. Games are an entirely different story. So I apologize for the incident."

"Oh my goodness, Ryan apologized?!!" Aaliyah exclaimed. "It's a miracle!" Ryan glared at her for the comment, which made everyone else laugh.

"So what do you say, boys?" James asked little Yusei, Crow, and Jack. "Are we cool now?" The three glanced at each other and smirked, knowing what to do next. They stood up and ran over to James, hug tackling him to the ground. "Well, I guess we are!" James laughed. "And I can't get out of this hug. Someone, help me!"

"No one will save you!" little Crow said jokingly, trying to keep James down on the ground.

"Oh no!!! I'll be stuck in a hug forever!"

"I'll save you!" Aaliyah yelled heroically. She dashed over to James and tried to get the kids off of him. Unfortunately, they were really stubborn and did not move an inch. The girl then got wrapped up in the tackle hug and couldn't get out. "Guys, I need back up!" Slowly, the entire group became wrapped up into the tackle hug but they had to stand up after awhile because the group members that were closest to the floor were having a hard time breathing.

"Awww, I'm so proud of you, Jamsy," Keiza giggled, pinching his cheek a little.

"What did I do?" James asked curiously, blushing lightly.

"You were able to act like a leader for our group!"

"Oh yeah.....I did! I feel great! Now can you please stop pinching my cheek. It feels weird when you do this in front of everyone."

"How about this?" Keiza kissed James' cheek sweetly, making him blush more. "How about that~"

"I like that a lot, Keiz~" James grabbed her face and pressed his lips on hers sweetly. As soon as this happened, some of the group covered the kids' eyes.The two lovers were soon wrapped in each other's arms and Lizzy exclaimed,

"There are children here!!! Do not make them see this!"

"I don't think they care," William sighed. "And if they don't stop soon, it'll get interesting."

"What's going on?" little Crow asked, trying to peek out from Ryan's hand.

"No Crow, you don't need to see this!" Ryan said. He used his other hand to create a double shield for the boy. "This is something that children should not watch." He and the other two kids were trying to see what was happening persistently until Ian said,

"Hey, could you move upstairs? The kids are getting too curious." Keiza and James stopped kissing and proceeded to move out of the room, relieving everyone else and letting the boys uncover their eyes.

"What happened?" little Yusei questioned.

"Adult things, my friend," William said. "Adult things that kids your age shouldn't see."

"But aren't I an adult in this time?"

"Yes, but not right this second." Suddenly, a vibrant knock came through and its sound entered the living room.

"I'll get it," Ryan said, leaving the room. He opened the door and smiled, seeing the group's friends once again. "I'm beginning to wonder why you visit so much."

"Well, we like to check up on you guys sometimes!" Leo exclaimed with a grin.

"How are you holding up from the other day?" Akiza asked.

"We are doing better," Ryan smiled. "A lot better. So far, everything is back to normal."

"That's great!"

"Hey guys!" Lizzy exclaimed, running to the front door to see them. "How's it going?"

"Good!" Luna responded. "Why were you running? Were you that excited to see us?"

"Yes and also we just started a game of tag. And I'm not 'it'!" As soon as she said that, Aaliyah dashed to the scene and tapped Lizzy's shoulder, saying,

"You're 'it'!" She then quickly dashed away to avoid being caught. Lizzy's eyes widened in surprise, not seeing that coming from a mile away.

"I guess you're 'it' now," Akiza laughed.

"Awww, I don't wanna be 'it'!" Lizzy complained with a huff.

"You're not getting me!" Ryan shouted, running away from her as quickly as he could. Lizzy sighed sadly but then smirked a little, having an idea. She quickly tapped Leo's head and ran off fast.

"Wait, I'm 'it' now?!" Leo yelled.

"Yup!" Luna giggled. She and Akiza dashed away as Leo tried to find someone to tag. He was beginning to be very frustrated when he couldn't find anyone in sight. He groaned loudly and walked throughout the house to find a person with no success. James and Keiza came down the stairs and saw Leo.

"Hey, what's going on?" James asked him.

"We're all playing tag and I'm 'it'," Leo explained. "But it's too hard to find anyone and I'm not that fast..."

"Oh, then just tag me then. I'll get them!"

"Ok!" Leo touched James' shirt and ran off.

"Keiza, I'm giving you a head start so start running." Keiza nodded and went off as James announced, "I'm 'it', everyone!!!!" He began to dash very fast around the house and everyone else was running from him, laughing as they went.
