A/n: It's adventure time! This story is on the way to the conflict. More OC will come and more pairings will showed up. And just like at chapter 5, I will added original song. I don't own Cardfight Vanguard.

Enjoy~

Six teenagers are walking at the thick forest. Aichi is leading with a tablet on his hand. Iachi and Kourin are behind him while Aini, Aicha, and Emi are the most behind.

Aini is looking around and spining slowly while walking.

Emi is looking down as she frowned and sometime glance her hand.

Aicha is talking with Iachi.

While Kourin is staring at Aichi in worried.

Kourin is about to talk but Aini is fast than her. "Aichi, are we there yet?" Aini said as she slightly run to Aichi. She look at the tablet on Aichi's hand where it has a map with red point and an arrow that shows where they are now.

"Not yet. It's still far away. And it's a little confusing. Is there will be a village or anything? I'm afraid we can't sleep at here since Iachi doesn't want to sleep beside the insect." Aichi ask to Aini.

"Yeah. There's no way I want to sleep with them. They will enter my body through my hole." Iachi said as everyone except Emi sweatdropped and stare at Iachi in terror.

"What hole?" Emi asked.

"T-There is nothing at all, Emi. What Iachi means is his ears and nose." Aicha said.

"Don't know why it feels Iachi's words have negative meaning." Aini said to Aichi as Aichi blushed madly and accidently let all of wild fantasies running around on his head.

"D-Don't say that in front of me!" Aichi shout to Aini. "I-I don't want to talk about this again." Aichi said as he turn his body and walk a little faster.

Iachi just confused and blinked his eyes. "W-What? Did... did I just say something wrong?"

"Well, your words seems have unmentioned meaning." Kourin said as Iachi realized and blushed madly.

"You guys are very pesimistic. I didn't mean that kind of stuff." Iachi shout.

"What are you guys talking about anyway?" Emi asked in confuse.

"Er,... Emi, let's hearing something else, okay!" Aicha said to Emi as she turn Emi's body and talk to her about something that suit for underage people.

"Hey, guys." Iachi and Kourin turn to Aini. "Is it wrong if I think that Aichi is pervert to himself?" Aini asked as she point Aichi who already far away from them.

Aichi heard Aini even though he already close his ears as he blushed.

They continue the search. It's been an hour they walking and they decided to rest for a while. They found the place near the river as they take out the stuff in their bag. "What the heck?!"

Everyone turn to Iachi. "What's wrong, Iachi?" Aichi asked.

"You gotta be kidding me. Mother Of Light even added a frying pan and a spatula inside my bag. What was she think? Did she thought we're going to the cooking competition?" Iachi said as he take out a frying pan and a spatula from his bag.

Note: Things in their bags is filled by Mother Of Light and her maids. And their important stuffs are in it too.

(Mother Of Light: Tehee~ ✌😊)

Aichi shocked and slightly jawdrop as he quikly digging his bag to search if there are weird stuffs in it. Everyone quickly searching around too.

As expected, Aichi shocked when he found... a battery charger as he take it out. "And did she thought that there will be an electricity in the forest?" Aichi said as he sighed.

"Hey, Aichi." Aichi turn to Aicha who pouted. "Want some ballon? 😒." Aicha asked as she take out a plastic full of ballon from her bag.

"No thanks. I don't need it." Aichi said as he sweatdropped.

"What's with this old pipe in my bag anyway?" Aini sweatdropped when she found an old pipe that already been rusty in her bag.

Emi found something but it doesn't clear so she take it out. And it was... a snake. Emi screamed in fear as she throw the snake and it fell to Aichi's shoulder.

Aichi felt it as he turn to his shoulder and see a yellow sharp eyes animal on his shoulder. "AAAAAH! SNAKE! GET OFF! GET OFF! GET OFF!" Aichi screamed in fear and... crazily with wide eyes as he try to take the snake off of him.

The snake finally free from Aichi's shoulder as Aichi panting hard in fear with his eyes still widened and clutched his chest. Kourin walk toward the snake and touch it cause she thought that the snake didn't move.

"It's only a toy." Kourin said.

"Why Mother Of Light added that kind of thing in my bag? Is she trying to prank me?" Emi asked.

Aichi has finished stabilize his breath then he fainted. Iachi and Aicha approach him to check on him. "Bro/Aichi?" Iachi and Aicha said together as they try to wake him up.

"Guess the prank is actually for Aichi." Aini said as she sweatdropped. "But why Mother Of Light added this kind of stuff in our bag? Weird... " Aini said to herself as she just shrugged it off.

Iachi walk to river and cupped the water with his hands then he walk back to Aichi and Aicha. He pour the water to Aichi's face as Aichi awake then shake his head to decreased the water on his face. "How long I have fainted?" Aichi asked to Iachi.

"2 minutes 5,5 seconds." Iachi answered.

"Anyway, boys. Maybe you guys should get the woods and fishes so we can eat. We will pick the fruits from the trees around here and cook the fishes that you guys catch." Aicha suggest.

"Okay." Aichi and Iachi said as they nodded and run toward the river.

"But becareful! Don't let your clothes wet!" Emi shout.

"Don't worry! We won't." Aichi said as he and Iachi start to fold up their sleeves. Aichi turn to Iachi. "Iachi, you gather the woods first then help me catch the fishes, okay?"

"Okay, but are you sure you can do it?" Iachi asked.

"It's okay. I still remember how we catch the fish when we were kids." Aichi said as he take off his boots and socks then fold up his pants.

"It brings up memories, huh." Iachi said as they laughed at each other in joy.

Emi, Kourin, and Aicha are picking the fruits. Iachi is gathering the woods while Aichi is trying to catch the fish. It does kind a hard but Aichi can catch the fishes even without powers. There is a small basket so Aichi can put the fishes there.

When it full, Aini taking it and walk back to the girls. And then Aichi got another fish and turn to Aini. "Aini, catch!" Aichi shout as he throw the fish to Aini.

Aini turn around and dodge the fish. As the result, it hit Kourin's face. Aichi shocked and got scared when it hit her. Kourin get that fish off of her head and it revealing that she is pouted. "You're so death, Aichi Sendou." She said as it makes Aichi shivered.

Kourin throw the fish to Aichi's face with her eyes (+_+) shining red. When she throw, the fish just like a rocket and finally land on Aichi's face. "Aaagh!" Aichi screamed as the fish bounced back to the river after hitting him harder. Aichi felt like he just got seizure spasms now.

"Oooh, I'm sorry, Aichi. The fish slipped from my hand and run away." Kourin said with fake guilty tone as she smirk like she is saying 'Take-that!'.

"I-It's... o... kay... " Aichi said while trying to stop seizuring and continue catch the fish. Then Iachi join him to catch the fish after giving Emi the woods.

The twin start to catch the fish then throw them randomly. Aini is about to giving back the basket but she shocked when many fishes is throwed to random place.

She quickly catch the fishes panickly with basket on her hand. Aicha saw this as she shocked. "Hey, that's enough you two! We already got many fishes." Aicha shout.

"No way. I won't let brother Aichi catch more fish than me." Iachi shout as he continue catching the fish.

"Try to beat me." Aichi said as he got two fishes on his hand.

"In the end, there is a catching fish competition in front of us." Kourin said as she sweatdropped while Emi sighed and facepalmed.

The twin is chasing their own fishes and their fishes start to approaching each other. And as the result, the twin bump to each other and fell to the river.

The girls only watch them. "*sighed*,... boys." Aini said as she panting hard after catching the fishes.

Aicha chuckled awkwardly while Kourin facepalmed. "Didn't I tell them to not let their clothes wet?" Emi said as she sighed.

Fortunately, there are a spare clothes in the twin's bag. So they wear the clothes while Emi sunning their own clothes.

Aichi wears dark purple shirt, maroon hoodie jacket, and black pants.

Iachi wears white shirt, purple bluish jacket, and black jeans. Because their hair are wet, the twin have towel wrapped aroud their shoulder.

Aini cut the fishes, Aicha is making sure the fire didn't out, while Kourin is grilling the fishes.

"You guys are more bothering when you are together." Aicha said as Aichi scratch his head and laughed awkwardly while Iachi just blushed and looked away.

"Are you guys always like this when you were kids?" Aini asked.

"Yup, mom said they often go to the river and play. And of course Iachi who planning it while Aichi just agree." Emi explained.

"Hey, it was fun doing it, you know. And sometimes not because brother Aichi sometimes got scratches on his knees." Iachi said while Aichi rubbing his knees.

"Oh, and mom once said that you accidently catched the fish with your mouth." Emi said as the girls laughed.

Iachi blushed harder and close his face with his hand in embarrasement. "Haha, good thing you didn't eat the fish, Iachi." Aini said.

"Well, it's brother Aichi's fault for pushing me." Iachi said as he point Aichi.

"Eh?! Me?" Aichi said as he shocked.

Aini only shook her head seeing the twin's arguements. She turn to the basket full of fish that she just catch. "So, what are we going to do with these fishes. They're too many fishes and they're all big." Aini asked.

"Maybe we should grill all of it. We can eat some of it later." Aicha said as Aini nodded.

After eating, they discussing about the map in Aichi's tablet also wait for the twin's clothes to dry. "Aini, do you remember where the other protectors are sent to?" Aichi asked to Aini.

"Well,...I remember some of it. But we can call them for a help. Only for a help and something that is necessary. The protectors can tell if they already found the crystals. So, the red point will gone from the place where they already found it. So, if the red point is gone, then they're might be still around there." Aini explained.

Aichi nodded in understanding as he hold his chin to think. And then he sees some place that is kinda familiar on that tablet. He staring it in confuse but he didn't ask.

When the twin's clothes have dried, the twin put the clothes in their bag then they continue to walk. An hour later, they arrived at the silent village. The wind blow lightly at that place, making it more seen silent. "Where are we?" Aini asked as everyone turn to Aini in shocked.

"You don't know too?" Aichi ask as Aini nodded.

"Never heard about this village." Aini said as she stare at the village. "How about we check on it? They're might be a clue in here." Aini suggest as everyone stare at each other then shrugged it off in agreement.

They walk into that village's hall. They heard men's voice in every houses. "It seems quiet from far but if we hear it closely, this village has the people in it." Iachi said.

"But why are they didn't do their activites? Much of them must have an activities at outside." Aicha asked.

They looking around the houses but they didn't realize someone who is smoking at the window watching them. The person throw the ciggarette and walk away.

"Hey, are theese people really in their house?" Aichi asked as he turn to Iachi while there is a window right behind him. But Aichi didn't realize there are four eyes behind that window.

"Don't know, bro. Um,... From the look of it, maybe they are hiding or-..."

"HWAAAAH- UMPH!" Everyone quickly turn around and they didn't see Aichi everywhere.

"B-Bro,... ?"

"Aichi, where are you?" Kourin shout but no one answer her.

"We're doom. Mother Of Light order us to not lose Aichi. It will total disaster if Aichi... Aichi... " Aini said panickly as she panting hard in panic.

"Aini, calm down. We're going to find Aichi. He must be still around here." Aicha said as she hold Aini's shoulder.

"I thought Kourin will be the one who is the most panic." Emi said as she turn to Kourin who is seemed panic but not really panic like Aini. Emi is getting worried seeing her. "Anyway, we should search for him now. And I think spliting up isn't a good idea cause right now we didn't know anout this village." Emi suggest as everyyone only agreed.

Aichi's POV

I was listening Iachi's answer but suddenly, four hands wrapped around me and one of them close my mouth so that I stop screaming. They quickly take me to the dark room as I can hear we are going to downstairs. Then they put me the floor an good thing they didn't put me harshly.

'Where am I? It's dark. I can't see anything.' I thought. The lights is on as I reacted when the light shine to my eyes. Then I widened my eyes for what I seeing.

Aini's POV

I very can't hold my histerical. Aichi is targeted right now and I don't want him in danger. I'm afraid Mother Of Light will punished me because of my carelessness. But good thing she only advise me softly.

We have searching for him now but it's useless. Aichi is nowhere to be found. Oukkh, I wish someone will come to help us.

"Excuse me,... " We heard a male's voice as we turn. "It's very a surprise to see travelers came here." He said.

I only stare him from how he is wearing. Just like a bandit. I kinda feel uneasy because of it also how he talk. But I have to rid off that pesimistic thinking now. Aichi is missing and maybe this guy might know him. "Um,... sir. We just wanna ask. Do you see a blue hair boy around here? He almost like him." I said as I pull Iachi closer so that guy will understand.

"A blue haired boy? I'm very sorry but I didn't see him." He said as I sigh in dissapointment. "Just let him be. I think he is curious and he might be want to look around alone." He said again.

"How can Aichi leaves us just like that after he screaming? And I'm very sure he heard Mother Of Light's advise to always be with us if he want to go somewhere." I thought. Well, I can't blame this guy since he don't know anything at all about Aichi.

"Anyway, how about you guys just wait for him at my house while I'll tell this to the mayor?" He suggest.

"Uh,... one minute, please." Iachi said as we gather around to discuss about this. "Guys, don't know why but I feel this guy is... well, you know what I mean."

"Yup, he looks suspicious. But maybe we should believe him first. Right now, we need a help from anyone who live at this village." Aicha said.

"I just agree with you, Aicha. Right now, I'm really worried about Aichi." Emi said.

"But we still need to watch over ourself too. It's no use if Aichi is alright, while all of us can't protect him cause we are in no condition." Kourin said.

I try to think for a suggestion. Fortunately, I have found it now. "For just in case, how about one of us watch over everything if there's something fishy? We won't be trapped if someone know what will happen." I suggest as everyone mumble in agreement.

"Yeah, that will be a great idea. But who will do that?" Iachi asked as I smile. I know that kind of question will come.

"I'll do it." I said in full of determination.

Meanwhile

Normal POV

Naoki is walking to the Card Capital as he think about Aichi. He fall too deep to his thought until he bumped into someone who is carrying a plastic bag. "S-Sorry, I-... " Naoki widen his eyes when he sees Nagashiro Maki in front of him as he blushed.

"Ishida? Oh, I'm sorry too. I didn't see you." Maki said as she smiled.

Naoki stare at her. He froze when he sees Maki is so beautiful and kinda different when she is not at school. "M-Maki,... " Naoki mumbled. Then Naoki shook his head and start the converstation. "So,... where are you going?"

"I just went to the animal's food's shop. And now, I want to the pet shop." Maki said.

"You want to have a pet?!" Naoki exclaimed.

"Yes. More likely a new pet." Maki said. "I already have 15 kind of birds and 8 cats. Now I want to buy 2 more birds and 5 cats."

"Wow, that was many." Naoki said. "Aren't you tired of taking care all of them?"

"No, my parents also have pets. My mom have kind of lizards as a pet while my dad have kind of unharmed insect as a pet. So, we sometime taking care of each other's pets." Maki explained.

Naoki nod his head. "Um,... " Naoki said as Maki tilted her head in confuse. "C-Can I... a-accompany you?" Naoki said shakily.

Maki only giggled as she turn to Naoki. "Of course. Why not?"

Meanwhile

Emi's POV

I can't believe it. It is our first adventure but we already lose Aichi. What are we going to do? What if Aichi is in danger now? I'm so worried about him.

I try to calm myself. It's no use for to thinking pesimistic. In the end, I only making it worse.

But...

Not only Aichi that I am thinking right now. I also thinking about... something inside me. Something that still be a mystery inside me. My powers.

I know it seems not really an important thing. But I very wanna know about it. I want to protect Aichi. He's my brother and a Protector. I can't just watching around while everyone desperately protecting him. Kourin is useful because she is one of Takuto's agent.

What am I going to do?

"Here we are." I come back to the reality as I turn to the guy we just met. "My friends are hanging out at my house. You can talk to them while I'll tell the mayor about your friend." He said.

"Oh, okay. Thanks." Aini said.

"Your welcome. See you later." He said as he leave us.

We slowly walk to his house while Iachi take a little peek from the window. Then suddenly, the window is opened and Iachi fell in shock. "Oh, hey. What are you kids doing here?" A cheerful man said who suddenly appear and stare at us.

"Uh,... um,... " Iachi said shakily as he try to find a good words to talk.

"We lost our friend, sir. And your friend is going to tell the mayor and he order us to wait at his house." I explained.

"Oooh, then come in." He said but we still hesitated.

The man come out and push all of us to the house. "C'mon, c'mon! Don't be shy!" He said.

When we enter the house, it very looks like a bar than a house as we see all of his friend. Some of his friend are talking and some of them are drinking, don't know what they are drinking right now. Maybe it's apple juice.

(Me: Bear with it. She is underage.)

"Uh,... this is looks like a bar... not a... house." Iachi said.

"Well, every house are like this." He said.

"Where's the living room?" Iachi asked.

"This is the living room." He answered.

His friends turn us as they seems happy to see us. "Guys, we got a new visitors." He said as his friend gathered around us.

"Hoho, hi. Welcome to our village."

"Let's be friend there!"

"Oooh~, you're so cute there, girl." That one is for me as I smiled awkwardly.

"C'mon, let's have fun!" One of his friend said as everyone except us cheered and pull us to join them.

Aichi's POV

I slightly widened my eyes when I see my surrounding. There are many people who wear torned clothes and dusty. "Young man, good thing we save you before you're in danger." An old man said as I turned confuse.

"What are you mean? Where are we? What danger? And who are you people?" I asked multiple times.

"Calm down there, kid. Before we explain everything to you, what's your name? Why are you came here? And where are you came from?" A teenage girl who seemed older than me asked.

"I'm Aichi Sendou. The reason why I came here because of curious. And I'm from Tokyo." I answered in order.

"Kid, you shouldn't be here. You have to go back. Right now, this place aren't safe for you."

"What? Why?" I asked.

"Cause this village is full of cruel bandit. Those men are not the villagers... but they are the bandits who are targetting a travelers right now."

"Hah?! They are the bandits?" I exclaimed in shock.

"This is bad. Iachi, Aicha, Aini, Kourin, and Emi are still there." I thought in worried.

"Then why are you guys only save me? My friends and families are still there." I shout.

"Eh?! So, you're not alone." A boy said as I nodded in panic. Then that boy turn to the twin brother beside him. "Explain, please!" He said as the twin slightly scared.

"We don't know too. We only saw him." One of the twin said.

I very can't sitting around like this. I need to save them. Then I stood up. "Where is the way out?" I asked in panic.

"What are you going to do?"

"Isn't it obvious? I need to save them." I answered as I try to break through them but they stopped me.

"Are you crazy? You can beat them all. They are strong."

"I don't care if they're strong. I'm still going to save them." I said again as I going to run away but 4 hands grab my hands. I struggled against them and panting. "L-Let me go! I need to save them."

"We know you are panic, young man. But you can't go there when you don't have a perfect plan to beat them. You need to calm down first and think clearly." An old man said again.

That old man's serious face making me stop struggling. I stabilize my breath as I finally calm down. When I calmed down, those 4 hands release me. "Okay,... I will think a plan to beat them." I said as I slid down and now sitting on the floor.

I can't blame them. I really need to think a plan. But what is it? Wait, they forgot to explaining everything to me. "You guys forgot to answer my questions earlier. And from the look of you guys, you are the real villagers, right?" I asked.

"Yes, we are. The story is like this... "

A/n: NaoMaki has arrived. And I'm sorry cause I can't post my drawings. It doesn't mean I don't have it. It just... I think I shouldn't have my drawings in every chapter cause I'm afraid if I don't have any again. But in the next chapter, there will be an OC's QnA. You guys can ask the question to the OCs. They'll be love to answer them. Well, that's all for my information. See you later~
