(GS3) Field: Regional Hall

[OverDrive]

"...That aura..." he could not believe his eyes, this time it was clear something had happened. This time around Neo was not up for a fight and Tsubasa has no clue wht the extent of the effects will be, so he was frozen.

If anything he was more concerned about Neu and his friends, inside him a voice cried out Neo, pleading for him to change this apparent path,"..No...DON'T DO THIS..." but it could not be audible. Tsubasa had began to relive the feeling of loss, but this time he decided that no matter what happens he will fix the situation. He quickly grabbed Neu gently and gestured for her to leave with him, he mainly wanted her to be safe,"II appreciate today guys.." he said, as they both made their way out of the hall and started on their path home.

Hikaru watched as Tsubasa dragged Neu with him as the man says his goodbyes. Hikaru gave a small wave as he returned to serve any customers.

Today was a break day for the Cardfight Club members due to yesterday's success. Isabella decided to enjoy her time around the Culture Festival by going to the spaghetti booth and eating spaghetti.

Darren yawned again as he had spend all of last night doing Image Training and looking over his deck. The chill that Neo gave him caused him to second guess what he should be doing. He knew he wasn't bad or anything since he had been told more often than not that he was very skilled with Dimensional Robos, but that only made him wonder if his clan was able to keep up with what others around him were doing.

Now that he had a break, Darren was actually looking around at everything in the Culture Festival and he was impressed at how well it all turned out. It made him happy to see that everyone in the school had worked hard to make this and it was fairly professional in what it wanted to do. As he was walking, he saw Hana, smiling as he went to where she was. "Hey there!" he called out. "Nice show yesterday. Sorry I didn't get a chance to say it then."

Haruka returned for Day 2 of the culture festival. Luckily today was a break day for them, which means they didn't have to get stuffed into costumes and serve anymore, they were free to roam about and enjoy the festival normally. Haruka was excited to see his friends as usual, considering other than school, they don't get to talk all the time. Sort of a sad realization that everyone would be graduating soon, as this was their senior year...

Speaking of graduates, Haruka hasn't seen Yukino in nearly three days now, ever since he left her house that one morning for the park and then work, she has just been absent again. It felt like a hole burrowing again, but he'd just have to endure for the meantime. Maybe she was preparing? Maybe she just didn't like festivals. Maybe he could just text her to come out....

"hey, festival was a huge success yesterday! shouldve seen it. me and seifer matched, he was mordred and i was blaster dark, pretty nicee. anyways, you should come along today! we rnt working so u can just look at stuff and play games if you want. -haru <3"

First time he ever put a heart at the end of the tag line. Subtle.

First stop, Dump the Rapper... Drake better still be there. Haruka has a mean fastball.

[Hope]

"Hey Darobo" Isabella waved as she noticed him and his greeting. "Well I didn't really get a chance to roam around after it, but thanks." She was in the mood for some fights for the rest of the day. While she still wanted to enjoy herself, the close of the festival was coming quickly and tomorrow would be when the battle would begin. The anticipation made her want to go do training in order to prepare. She had faith in her Bermuda Triangle, but at the same time she really does wonder just how far they could go.

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

Darren sighed lightly as he looked at her. He was happy she could have fun today to make up for what she couldn't do yesterday. He looked down lightly and said, "Neo seemed strange yesterday... I got a really bad vibe from him. Something about it makes me feel like I need to make sure I'm at my best... but I don't really know what else I could do. My Dimensional Robos can only go so far unless I can evolve them like you said."

[Hope]

"Oh. Well Neo is always strange." She walked from the booth, heading wherever. There was nowhere in particular that she had planned, but the spaghetti over at that one would only tempt her to eat more. "The best thing to do is just practice and get stronger on your own." Well, that was the right thing to do. Falling into enemy hands for that weird power is also an option, but too many things are unknown at the moment.

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

Darren walked with her, mostly to continue the conversation. "I know that, and I was doing that last night," he said to her. "But Neo wasn't his energetic self... He had this really dark feel to him and... I just wish I could connect to my units like you can." He smiled lightly at the thought of it, but at the same time, it felt more like a dream than a possibility.

[Hope]

"Connecting to your units is just being able to fight with them. Not like it's necessary to have a special power to do so." She shrugged it off along with the stuff regarding Neo. She'll just have to deal with him when she saw him and that would be later after this relaxation period... well sort of. This is going to be a bigger mess than the War of Liberation it seems.

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

Darren thought about it, somehow feeling like there was more to it. It could be his own paranoia though or his doubt. He shook it off lightly and said, "Maybe you're right. Anyway, what are you gonna look to do now? You mentioned wanting to fight, right?"

[Jello]

Haruka ate a lot that day. A lot.

Man, he was just hungry for that pineapple.

After about twenty minutes of devouring a food stand consisting of pineapple friendly products, Haruka proceeded to walk towards the main hall of the event. It was brisk outside even, and the evening was coming soon. Maybe if he wasn't gonna be working, he should just head home. Things were getting awfully fuzzy anyways... Too much pineapple.

"Hey Sera, you're feeling this too righ----" Haruka slumped against a wall, a bit dizzier than before, evoking a rather large yawn. He was even starting to sweat up a bit, as if he got hit with a fever all of a sudden. Maybe something infected him last night? Haruka wasn't sure... Sera wasn't responding either. Haruka vaguely heard him for a second as his tailbone finally smacked against the floor of the corridor he had found himself in.

"Sleep well, Haruka. I'll ta-- care -- --- -verythi-- wi-- -- --ight---"

Black out.



"Sleep well, Haruka. I'll take care of you. Everything will be alright."

Haruka's once resting body sprang to life just moments after passing out. It took only a moment for him to realize that he was still in the obnoxiously noisy Regional Hall from last night. Not only was it getting late, but he was starting to starve a bit. Pineapple wasn't exactly the most appetizing thing... Maybe something sweet.

"Guh... At least dress better next time." He scolded himself on his choice of wear, and started heading out of the Regional Hall and anywhere else that wasn't so crowded or at least a bit more peaceful. It didn't even have to be secluded, just not three hundred people within retina vision at all times. He was gone in an instant, even just moving at walking speed.

[Hope]

"I don't remember mentioning that out loud" She scratched her head, wondering where he got that from. A fight wouldn't hurt anyone though so there wasn't really any need to have one she supposed. "If you want to then I don't mind, sure."

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

It was probably Darren wanting to fight more than anything but he felt that was something that she wanted for some reason. He smiled lightly and said, "Yeah, let's go a round. Maybe it'll help the both of us." He pulled out his deck. He had been working on it a bit and hoped it was more able to keep up with her now.

[Hope]

The game went as usual for Isabella, with the standard route of either riding Iori or Mer first, then finishing off with Reit's restand ability. She was pushed more than usual with Daikaiser's limit break, having to guard to make it enough for to Grade 3 checks. In both cases it was the right choice to do so as one grade 3 usually showed up, but not another. All in all, Darren did well was getting closer to becoming better with his Dimension Police deck in Isabella's eyes. This also gave her the confidence to deal with Neo later.

"Naisu faito." She said the usual suffix, putting away her deck back into its box.
