Chapter 34: Aftermath


The Running Man players loses their confidence after losing the battle with the DV8, but the thing that was most implanted in their thought was the shocking revelation of Yuu which turned out to be a Human.

Liu, Kuga, Lonky, and Popo all sat together at the meeting lounge. Their arms crossed together with their minds clouded with questions regarding Gai's betrayal and Yuu's appearance.

"I can't believe... That Yuu is actually a Human..." Lonky mumbled the thought that all of them were thinking. "And here everyone thought that Humans were just part of a made up fairy tale to teach us moral lessons"

"I know... It's really shocking. All this time, we've been playing the tournament with a human..." Popo muttered after Lonky.

"Both of you sound like you're disturbed about Yuu's appearance?" Kuga said to them.

"Who wouldn't?!" Lonky replied. "If the fairy tale about humans are real then that means Humans are the embodiment of greed which lead to them destroying their previous world!"

"He's right! All of us know how that story goes! It could happen!" The penguin shouted before Kuga gave out a loud sigh of disappointment and glanced at them from the corner of his eyes.

"Then now do you know... Why he wears a mask?" Kuga paused at first before sitting up straight. "Because if he walked around in public with his appearance exposed. He would hear people, like you, judge him based on what he looks all because of a stupid fairy tale"

The Giraffe and Penguin sudden felt a strike of guilt on their chest as they simply lowered their head to avoid eye contacts.

"You sound like you're not bothered at all that Yuu is a human" Liu spoke. Referring to Kuga's words that sounded like he respected Yuu.

"Human or not..." The tiger inhaled. "That man fought a battle he obviously couldn't won but he kept fighting just so we could win the match. That is something I cannot overlook. I don't know about you guys but in the Bars Tribe, what Yuu did, was true power" Kuga's voice became deep as he gained the attention of Lonky and Popo before placing them both in an even stronger guilt.

Soon the Impala arrived in the room. Slowly walking towards an empty seat next to Liu before exhaling to relieve his exhaustion.

"Pala, what's Yuu's status?" Liu asked in concern.

"Well... His physical injuries are healed but... There's something else that's slightly ruining his body. The fact that I don't know the cause terrifies me and puts me to shame... I'm suppose to be the healer..." Pala sulked and Liu reassured him with a pat on the back.

"It's alright. You did your best" Said the bug and brought the Impala to a small smile.

"Thanks, Liu"

"Is he still unconscious?" Kuga asked.

"He is. I don't know when he will awaken but if I had to guess... It won't be long now"

Soon silence echoed through the room once more. But this time, the Running Man's thoughts were placed on their defeat of the match.

Miyo then entered the room, having the same defeated look across her face with her hands crossed as she sat on an empty seat.

The males started to stare at her from the other side. Having their eyebrows lightly creased before Miyo noticed what they were doing.

All of them gazed over at the feline's  fierce eyes in silence and uncertainty after revealing her ability to read minds during their previous match.

"So... There was a spy amongst us..." Kuga broke the silence and addressed the elephant in the room. "We just didn't realized it..."

"Well, Miyo knew and probably for a while too" Said the Popo, his voice exposing his sudden distrust. "With your ability, I'm sure you peaked into Gai and Yuu's mind at some point"

"Not true!" Miyo immediately replied. "I found out the same time all of you did. And why is Yuu suddenly on the topic?"

"When we removed his bandages, you showed no reaction to his 5 fingers nor his red blood. That can only mean you used your ability to find out who he is!" The penguin and exclaimed his wild assumption.

"Are you kidding me?! I was speechless as all of you!" She shouted.

"Then why weren't you surprised?! I saw the look on your face at the that time and you were as calm as a sloth!"

"Because Yuu already showed me his hands!" Her sharp words surprised them all. She let out a soft exhale before continuing. "He told me not to tell anyone about it and I did... That's why I wasn't as surprised as all of you... I made sure I'd keep my word... Because I'm his friend! But I really didn't expect for him to be a Human... That result shocked me as well" She said softly with parts of her voice cracking while gazing down at the floor.

The Penguin came to a silence before Pala saved everyone from the awkward Aura.

"Umm anyways Miyo, What did you find out about Gai...?" Asked the Impala.

Miyo shook her head sideways, clearing her thoughts and acting professional.

"I found out that Gai was a Spy that Charming Gold planted within our team. Charming Gold named him Man x" Her revelation surprised them even more as they became eager to know more information. "Charming Gold had set up everything so "Man X" would end up as the winner..."

"Wait...!" The penguin prepared to exclaimed once again. "So the games were rigged the whole time?! Argh! We wasted to much time and effort and because of that, Yuu was placed in critical condition!" Popo said out loud, showing his annoyance.

"Popo please, calm down... That's enough" Liu begged for the small penguin to calm down but he retaliated.

"Enough of what?! Am I wrong?! Huh am I?! Dang it, I'm so mad!!!!"

Suddenly, the door opened and all 3 of Gai's brothers arrived inside. Having a look of guilt across their faces. Popo was infuriated when he saw the three Monkeys and rushed towards them to shout.

"You're brother is a traitor!" Said the penguin and alarmed Gai's brothers.

"I swear, Gai didn't want to be apart of this. It was Charming Gold, he proposed the idea to our tribe. Our Elder thought about it and accepted the offer. Gai had no choice but to follow orders..." The second eldest brother replied to the penguin but in only made Popo even more annoyed.

"All of you knew about it and didn't even tell us?! Well, that makes all three of you just as bad!!!"

Liu jumped in between them and attempted to stop the enraged penguin's harsh words.

"Popo stop it! Take it easy on them. What we need to do now is to come up with a plan for the next game" Liu suggested but was immediately turned down.

"A plan?! Are you serious?! I'm sorry, Liu, but there is no way out of this! We can't win against those monsters!"

"He's right Liu" Lonky agreed from the comfort of his seat next to Kuga. "You know how fast and bright I am when it comes to thinking. I'm a pretty cheerful and optimistic guy... But I must say... We're doomed on this one..."

"This is a bad situation for us..." Pala spoke next to the giraffe.

"No! There's got to be something we can do guys!" Said the bug. Not letting his confidence be defeated. "Yuu risked his life for us, we have to win this match in return!"

"Like what?" Lonky asked in sarcasm. "What do you expect us to do? Even Kuga here got his butt kicked by the Red Eyed Beast"

Suddenly, Kuga stood up. Lonky jolted and covered his face, assuming that Kuga would throw a punch at him but no. The tiger sighed and slowly walked towards the exit. Leaving the room in complete silence.

Kuga's POV

I can't stop thinking about that Red Eyed Beast... What he did to Me... And to Yuu back at the arena...

I said to myself as I walked towards the room. My mind, overflowing with memories of the technique that guy used.

I understand that Yuu can copy abilities which explains why he can use it but the Red Eyed Beast.... What he did was definitely the Super Paw... A very powerful one that surpasses mine...

Back at the Lounge

"We have come up with a plan to save Gai and take down the Dv8" Liu mumbled, thinking deep within his thoughts just to come up with an idea. "But for that to happen... We have to win the next match and then Gai will be saved! After that, we can find out who the Dv8 actually are"

"Oh Liu... Give us a break!" The Penguin disagreed. "We can't win that game. You're way over your head"

The Bug puffed out a breath with a smug look upon his face. Looking like he had already come up with a plan.
"My plan is like... A big fish"

"A what?" Everyone Gawked at his remark.

"You Cath a big fish with Bait! Our enemies, by now, think they are much stronger than we are. That idea will be our bait! If we allow our enemies to think they already have us beat, we can use that against them. That's when... Popo, Lonky, Pala, you guys come in!"

"Huh?! What for?!" The trio stood Infront of Liu and shouted the same question in a mixture of confusion and surprise.

"The most important part. All three of you have unique skills that we can use to disarm their biggest guns!" The but replied with a wide smile.

"Yeah but..." Miyo spoke from behind them. "For that to work... We need to find out their weaknesses"

"According to my analysis on our last match... The Dv8's biggest weakness..." Liu spoke with a deep voice. Placing suspence towards the trio. "Is that they don't play us a team"

"Are you kidding me?!" Shouted the trio out loud in unison. "You can say the same thing about us!"

"I think you have it wrong Liu" the feline commented. "The Dv8 were fully synchronized in their attack to defeat Yuu. It's like... They were one with each other"

"That is correct but, you're forgetting one thing Miyo" Said the bug which caught the feline's full attention. "All of them teamed up because they knew how powerful Yuu is, meanwhile when they faught us, only Gai was sent to defeat us while the others stayed and watched"

"So what your saying is... Each of us will need man one of the Dv8 to by some time. Then we... Team up to take down the Red Eyed Beast... Their strongest player?" Said Miyo.

"Exactly!" Replied the bug. "If we join forces together. We can easily take them out one by one"

"Sorry Guys" Pala exclaimed as he stood next to the exit. "But I'm out" The Impala said with a defeated voice before leaving the area.

"That's a shame... This is the most important part. And this is Pala's role meaning this operation, cannot succeed without him.

Suddenly, Pala appeared standing next to Lonky and Popo with a crescent smile, feeling over confident all of a sudden.

"Heh... I'm listening" Pala replied.

"Quit it with the suspense already and tell us the plan!" Shouted the Penguin in annoyance.

"Okay. First, I need all of you back in your room. I'll discuss the plan individual there! Let's Go go go!" The bug said in excitement as the trio slowly exited the area to arrive in their rooms. Feeling uncertain of Liu's plan.

When it was only the bug and the cat who were left in the room. Liu's wide smile slowly dissappeared.

"That was a good idea to make them feel special just so they wouldn't lose confidence" Miyo commented, crossing her arms and legs together.

"Everyone right now needs a confidence boost... Our sudden defeat planted a heavy impact on all of us..." Said Liu, his cheerful tone lessened and became flat. "I still can't remove the thought that Yuu is..."

"None of us can... What do you think does this mean?" Miyo asked.

"I... I don't know... I refuse to believe the story that they told us about humans and their greed... Because Yuu showed none of those things to us..."

"Story? What story?" Miyo asked again and surprised the bug.

"You don't know about the Human's tale?" Liu asked in return and Miyo replied by slowly shaking her head sideways.

"Our people don't believe in their existence so none of us ever once talked about them. What's the story about?"

"I don't remember it much because it's a story that's commonly told to kids because it gives them a moral lesson in life. The story starts of that the world was once populated by humans and animals living together. The humans were said to be the most dominant species of the planet and evolved into a modern society just like this. But all of them wanted one thing... All for themselves... The Materion... Because everyone wanted the fruit all to themselves, chaos was ensued. Greed took over their minds and destroyed almost the entire planet... The animals... The trees... All of it were gone.... And no humans were left after that corrupted battle. The moral of the lesson was to not let greed consume us. It was a rather twisted tale to tell but it was effective nothing less... That's why many tribes refer to humans as... The Harbingers of Discord"

"... Do you... Believe that Yuu is one of those people... Bringer of chaos?" Miyo asked with a look of both concern and uncertainty but the Bug's reply remove those feelings of hers.

"Of course not. Whether he's a human or something else entirely... He will still be our friend" The sudden appearance of his smile brought the feline to smile willingly as well.

After some time. Liu was seen inside Popo and Pala's shared room to discuss his plan.

"What?! I'm suppose to take out Kuphaman?!" Shouted the Impala in surprise.

"You can use your herbs to recover quickly from anything right?!" Said the bug.

"Uhhh... Yes of course"

"Which means you can rise no matter how many times you fall!!" Liu said excitingly.

"Y-yeah I guess..." Pala replied with uncertainty.

"Yeah but... That won't work. You think that monster will get tired as long as Pala keeps riding like a zombie?" The Penguin disagreed with his Idea but Liu ignored his words and spoke.

"And you, Popo. You are also a key player. A vital one infact" The penguin was surprised at what he was hearing. "

"Really...?!" Asked the penguin.

"You can come up with a good spell that can buy us more time to stall them"

"So... You want me to cast a spell on the Dv8 to keep them at bay...? That's... Not an easy thing to do. It will take a lot of time to plan, not to mention... All the cards that I need to use" Said the penguin but Liu spoke out loud as if he heard nothing of what Popo said.

"You're the best wizard I know!!!"

"W-well... Okay Liu... But~" The penguin stopped when Liu hopped towards the door and waved over at them.

"Great! Thank you! Bye!" The bug said his instant farewell and left the room. Only placing them both in confusion.

"I can rise no matter how many times I fall...?" Pala mumbled before Popo.

"I'm the best wizard he knows...?"

The two gazed at each other before shouting out loud in frustration.

"Are you Insane!!!"

Soon it was the Giraffe's turn. Liu arrived inside Lonky's room and saw the giraffe enjoying his time at his fancy looking, and power consuming, massage chair.

"Hey, Lonky! How's it going?" Said the bug as he walked closer.

"Oh I'm fine!" Said the Giraffe with a pleasuring laugh due to his massage chair. "I'm doing a technique that my family had been doing for years. With this, I can take down two Dv8 at the same time!"

"Great! Lonky you are awesome!" Said the bug to further boost the Giraffe's confidence.

"Well yes, That's true. I am happy to help" The Giraffe responded.

"Great! We're all counting on you!" Liu made his last reply and left the room. Happy to have boost Lonky's confidence for tomorrow's match.

The bug then proceed to the third room, which was Kuga's.

"Kuga!" Yelled the bug with a wide smile, causing the tiger to stop on his training.

"Get out! I have no time for nonsense..." Kuga responded, having a frustrated tone.

"Look, I know you're still mad about that Red Eyed Beast but Gai needs us... And for us to save him, we all need to work together!"

"Tch... I said get out!" The tiger warned him but the bug resisted. Speaking towards Kuga with a firm tone.

"Kuga, he's our friend. You, me, the others, we're like family! Which is why we can't just forget and abandon Gai like that! It's our job to save him and bring him back!"

Kuga took a moment of silence. Showing an angered look, he punched his training dummy with a powerful force. Placing all of his frustrating onto that punch before letting out a deep breath.

"Alright... So you're plan... Do you think it's gonna work?"

"Kuga asked, shifting his head towards Liu. The bug replied by triumphantly smiling and nodding his head.

Soon the bug exited the room. And upon arriving at the halls, he encountered Miyo that seemed to be waiting for him.

"Liu... You're plan's great but... What if we still can't beat them? If we lose tomorrow then..." Miyo couldn't finish her sentence. The thought of losing on of her friends forever made a great impact on her.

The bug saw through Miyo's troubled and placed a gentle hand over her shoulder.

"Of course my plan will work. We'll win and bring Gai back to us. Okay?"

Hearing the bug's simple reassurance had pulled Miyo out of her void and brought a gentle yet, determined smile across her face.

"Okay. We will bring him back!" Miyo repeated.

Liu then removed his hand from Miyo and took in a deep breath before gazing sideways, staring at a specific room from within his eyes' range.

The feline notice the room Liu was looking at and immediately spoke.

"Are you worried about, Yuu?" Miyo asked.

"I am. Normally, one of my doughnuts in the refrigerator would have been gone by now but it's still there. I guess he still hasn't woken up yet..." The bug then exhaled before looking over at Miyo. "Let's check up on him?" Liu suggested. Miyo paused for a moment before nodding her head.

The two players entered the Human's room and saw nothing but darkness. They were sure they left the lights on before they left. Miyo attempted to turn on the lights but a deep voice prevented her actions.

"Don't... Turn it on..." Said a familiar voice.

Once their vision adjusted in the dark, they could see a half-baked Yuu standing Infront of the closed window blinds that prevented the afternoon light to illuminate the room. His naked back turned against them.

"Yuu... You're awake!" The bug pointed out but Yuu was silent for a brief moment. Breathing slightly heavily before speaking.

"Where... Are my bandages...?" Yuu asked without turning to look at them.

"We removed them and threw them away... They were covered with your blood... We had to, or else Pala wouldn't have been able to heal you..." Miyo replied for him.

"Did you... Did you guys saw... The real me?"

"We did..." Liu responded before Miyo.

"But we're not affected by what you look!" Miyo exclaimed and surprised the bug. Hoping to reassure Yuu. "If you're angry or upset because you think we hate what you look... Then we're not! You're still the same Yuu that we know"

"Then can you promise me..." You paused for a moment to breath and then exhaled. "That once I step out of this room... With my true self exposed... No one will be disturbed after taking a look... at me... No one?!" Yuu suddenly ripped off the blinds that covered the glass window.

The light of the afternoon immediately brought clarity to the room and revealed Yuu's exposed human body once more. But Miyo and Liu showed a surprised reaction when they saw  his left eye was still bloody red, blackness replaced the white in his left eye. He pivoted his body sideways against them and placed a look of annoyance towards them.

"Can any of you promise me that...?!" Yuu asked once more and this time, he stood tall in front of them.

Miyo and Liu struggled to let out their voices. They failed to reassure him because they knew by heart that anyone will be afraid when they see Yuu like this. Lonky and Popo's previous reactions were already a good example for what may come.

"That's what I thought..." Yuu exclaimed and sat on an empty chair. Leaning his body forward as he gazed at the floor. His ash grey hair were dancing along with the light breeze that entered the room.
"I overheard what Lonky and Popo said about me earlier... I'm used to being treated like that behind my back but I didn't expect for even my "friends" to say those words.. It's my tribe all over again..."

"They were just shocked. All of us were. Everyone assumed you were a chameleon at first, including me... When we realized that you are actually a Human... We didn't know how to react" Said Miyo with a look of concern, same with Liu.

"She's right! Human or not, we're still friends!" The bug assisted her in her reassurance.

"It doesn't matter... I still can't show myself to the audience after what happened... I didn't realize they were that strong... I should have tried to remove their masks just like she said... Dang It!" He scoffed at himself, running his right hand through his hair.

"Who was the girl...? The one that halted in her previous attack?" Miyo asked out of curiosity.

"She was sent here to just gain information about me. I didn't know why she stopped but she told me to remove their masks... I tried desperately to move my body but Hanabi's attack prevented me from moving any part of my body... I was lucky enough to still be alive after that... I thank Pala for that..." Yuu slowly gripped fist, showing clear signs of bottled anger.

"What was her name...?" Miyo asked again.

"Rema..."

The feline's ears then perked up as her eyes widened after hearing that name. Liu noticed the look she was making.

"Miyo, what's wrong?" Asked the bug.

"Rema... That's the name of the Spy that was previously sent here to gather info on Charming Gold. But she never returned... She's from the Nyanya tribe just like me..."

"Wait, you're a spy?!" Liu gawked.

"I'll explain that to you later..." Miyo assured.

"I see... No wonder she knows about you" Yuu refered to Miyo. "That peacock... What did he do to them...?!!"

The room echoed with his rage, Liu and Miyo remained silent, sharing slight anger towards Charming Gold.

"We don't know..." Said Liu. "But that's why we need to work together to beat them and save Gai! After that, we'll come up with a plan to rescue the Dv8. Whoever they are!"

"I can't... I'm powerless now... The consequences of overusing my power is taking control..."

"What do you mean?" Miyo asked, feeling concerned.

"My vision is getting blurry... I'm having trouble breathing... And I feel like I'm about to collapse any moment... I can't participate tomorrow's match... If I hadn't used that move, then it could've been different..."

"What move...?" The bug asked.

"Status Promotion... It's another ability I have... It makes my copied ability reach it's maximum level... I copied that Beast's strength and doubled it with that move and this was the outcome... I thought I would have won but... It seemed Charming Gold played me right to his trap... And the heavy injuries I sustained only made the drawback of my power worse..."

"We need to get you to a hospital then!" Shouted the bug in concern for his friend.

"No hospital can help me now..." Yuu replied, running another hand onto his hair, still maintaining his eyes on the floor. "It's better to leave me here to rot... Charming Gold can have his win..." Yuu suddenly spoke. Sounding like he lost all hope.

"What are you talking about...?!" Miyo asked him, Liu can sense a certain rage coming from the feline.

"We can't beat him... I'm useless now and none of you are strong enough to defeat them.... You can find a way to rescue Gai yourselves, I'm going to sit this one out... "

Suddenly, Miyo's ears perked and her claws retracted before yelling in a tone of anger.

"Don't say that! You can't just forget about Gai! He was there to offer you a hand to shake! He shared conversations with you and he treasured those memories!" Miyo referred to the memories of Yuu and Gai when she was in Gai's mind. "Pick yourself up for once and stand up! You're not useless!"

"Miyo..." The bug mumbled but Yuu showed no signs of reaction except his hand that gripped the top of his head. Still gazing down at the floor.

"You think we're bothered because you're a human? Because you're different?! Yuu, we couldn't care less!!! Being a human doesn't matter! It's too far from the topic at hand! Who cares about what you look?! You're worrying too much of one small thing!"

Suddenly, Yuu made his response.

He gritted his teeth and widened his eyes. Standing up from his seat and finally looking over at both of them. But his expression was nothing that Miyo had expected. Yuu clenched his fists tightly and shouted in return. Showing even a greater anger compared to hers.

"Shut up!!!" Yelled Yuu, causing the feline to halt. "All of those things are easy for you to say...! None of you know what I've been through!!! All of you grew up normally in your tribe, living happily and learning your tribe's knowledge but not me! While all of you were living the best days of your life, I WAS LIVING MINE IN HELL!" Yuu's anger grew stronger as he continued on firing bullets of his pain and sorrow towards the bug and the cat. "When the couple that raised me died, I was met with nothing but hardships! There was no end to it! Every where I go, people in my tribe would talk sour behind me. Kids avoided me and some beat me up. All because I... Am different. SO DON'T PRETEND LIKE MY APPEARANCE DOESN'T BOTHER ANY OF YOU BECAUSE I CAN SEE IT IN YOUR FACES, WHAT I LOOK CLEARLY DISTURBS YOU ALL!"

Yuu reach his peak and slammed the back of his fist on the window, shattering the glass into a million pieces before silence ensued.

Soon the Human's eyes widened to a realizing when met with Miyo's. The look that she had was nothing compared to disturbed or anything he thought she would act. Miyo... Was scared. The look of fear on her face and eyes brought the human to a silence. His anger dissappeared and his thoughts were cleared. He lowered his head once more and let himself fall back into his seat. Lowering his head to gaze at his knees before speaking with a low voice.

"Please... Just leave me alone..."

They heard Yuu's broken words but Miyo still showed the look of fear in her eyes until Liu stepped in to break their silence.

"Come on, Miyo... Let's give our friend some time to rest..."

The bug placed his hand on Miyo's back and gently assisted her in leaving the room in silence.

The bug and the cat was placed in deep thoughts. They never once considered Yuu's feelings to his current dilemma and they never realized that Yuu had live a tough life growing up in his tribe. All they could do now was respect the Human's words and give him the needed time to rest.

But Yuu was still seen sitting on an empty chair next to the broken window. Small rays of light was still peaking through the window to illuminate the room yet, it still felt like darkness shrouded the area. Tears slowly trailed down the Human's cheek as time quickly passed.

Several hours later

The Running Man players, slept quietly in their room until loud voices were heard from the halls telling them to wake up. The faint voices pierced the wars of the sleeping contestants and slowly exited their individual room.

"What's going on...? It's the middle of the night!" Popo said, feeling drowsy and too tired to open his eyes.

"Who's shouting?!" Kuga shouted as he exited his room.

Once everyone had gather in the halls, all of them could finally see the cause of the loud noise. It was no other than Gai's brothers. Calling out to them in urgent distress.

"Guys wake up there's something we need to show you!"

"What's the matter...?" Liu asked, feeling tired as the others.

"It's Yuu..." The Monkey's response slowly awakened the running Man team as they were now curious to know more.

"Did something happen to him...?" Pala asked nervously.

"No it's... He entered our room a few hours ago...~" The 2nd eldest brother paused when the youngest brother spoke from behind.

"By the way did you guys knew Yuu is actually a Human?" Asked the youngest brother and everyone replied with in underwhelmed look.

"Yes..."

"So what did Yuu do? Where is he?" Miyo asked, wanting to get to the point.

"He... Took a pair of Gai's clothing and spare bandages before leaving this note and telling us to hand it to you guys..." The eldest replied and handed Liu a crumpled paper. The Running Man team clustered together to read the paper.

The paper contained the few words; I'm Sorry and Good Luck, Running Men. Ps: I stole the chocolate shake in the chiller. Thanks Lonky.

"What?! But that's imported!!! It's straight from the giraffe's tribe Royal Cafe!!!" Shouted the angered giraffe.

"What does Yuu mean by this...? Where is he?" Popo asked the Monkeys and they soon replied in unison.

"Yuu... Left"

The Running men were alerted, their eyes widened as they jolted from what they said.

"You left?!" Popo repeated.

Then, Miyo started to run toward the opposite direction to where she arrived. The others became confused and followed her. Once she stopped in her sprinting, she stood Infront of Yuu's room. And upon entering, there was nothing left inside except a quiet and messy room with a broken window.

The feline slowly bitted the bottom of her lip in frustration. Showing small signs of sorrow and anger as small tears escaped her eyes. The males stood behind the door frame and simple watch as the feline sulked.

"Yuu... Why did you leave us...?" Miyo said to herself as Liu and the rest lowered their head. Speechless from Yuu's sudden action.

Meanwhile, in Charming Gold's quarters. The peacock slept like a king, having cucumber slices on his eyes before being awoken by one of his robot servants.

"ALERT! ALERT! Movements near Tree City Terminal detected!" Said the robot with a loud siren going off.

The peacock jumped out of his bed in surprise before filling up with rage.

"This better be important or it's the junkyard with you!!!" Said charming Gold before a holographic monitor appeared Infront of him with the view of the Train terminal through their Hidden Camera.

He squinted his eyes when a hooded person slowly boarded the train and left the area. He replayed the event and paused the moment the person took a sip from his beverage. He zoomed and enhance the image and when the bandaging around the person's arms and hands were in view, Charming Gold immediately realized who the person was and slowly laughed.

"So he finally gave up..." The peacock muttered before laughing loudly this time. "HAHAHAHA What a miracle it is! HAHAHAHA. Thank you so much Yuu.... For making this easy for me. Without you, the hindrance left to my plans are those puny Running Men.... HAHAHAH ITS RUNNING TIME YUU! RUN AWAY!!!"

The peacock's laugh echoed the entire facility, a light that's beyond maniacal as something sinister proceeded to occur beneath their noses.
