Shun : Alice and Runo are best friends Julie .

Julie: I know that but Alice was Masquerade .

Shun : true but if Runo liked me why didn't she tell me . before Me and Alice and before her and Dan .

Julie :don't know why but if ya want the answer to that you'll have to ask her yourself .

Shun : let me guess you texted me last night to come here to see if I go out with Runo .

Julie : if you don't wanna Me and Mira.  could work on finding someone else but it be hard .

Shun : because of Dan's post on the Bakunet .

Shun walked over to where the girls are .

Julie : I have so totally found nothing at the stores.

Runo : that's like a totall shocker .

Mira : Runo bought a painting .

Shun : Runo can we talk .

Runo turned around to see Shun . She completly froze and her face turned slightly pink.

Runo : sure Shun * thinking in mind * "what is he doing here I wonder ".

Shun : runo we need to talk !

Runo : ok like what would you like to talk about.

Shun : did Dan really ask u out nicely or were u forced into the relationship ?

Runo's face changed from happy to fear when shun mentioned dan's name.

Shun : Runo Runo Runo ....

Shun shook Runo for a while till she snapped out of it .

Runo : I rather not talk about him shun .

Runo still shown fear on her face ,she may of seemed happy around Dan . but it was just an act. Runo hugged herself .

Shun : so Dan did force you , why didn't you scream for help Runo ?

Runo : I was scared Shun I didn't wanna be hurt ,he said he would hurt me if I didn't say yes .

Runo began to cry due to the memory flashing in her mind .

Shun : did anyone else know bout this Runo?

Runo: Marucho definitely did I tell him everything he's like a little brother to me .

Shun : everything u tell Marucho? .

Runo : yep everything he like so knows all my secrets . since the beginning of the brawlers.

Shun : did Alice ever snoop through your stuff in your room ?

Runo: uhhh why you wanna know that Shun ?

Shun: I'll take that as a yes then .

Runo : is there like a reason your asking all these questions to me ?

Shun: yeah Marucho mentioned that a girl liked me.  but he couldn't say who, so when Julie texted me to meet her here to chat . she slipped what Marucho wouldn't .

Runo : you mean Julie said ....

Shun : Runo why haven't you said anything to me before Dan asked you ?

Runo: I was but Marucho said it wasn't the right time for that , he said we needed your help stopping Alice when she was masquerade.

Shun: so u never really came to get me. to help you back then . you wanted to go out with me .

Runo: uh huh but Marucho did make a good point.  in the fact that we needed your help. personally I would have gone for both .

Shun : u knew Marucho wouldn't let u . if u did try that ,that's why you didn't ask .

Runo :Uh huh thts so right he was focused on getting help .

Shun : ur still afraid of Dan Runo?

Runo: not anymore today at least. just more angry that he won't move on .

Shun : it would probably be easier for him if you did.

Runo : that's what I want but the way. Dan keeps saying were together. makes it hard for me

.Shun : so u definitely did see his post on the bakunet then?

Runo : yes I have I don't know what to do shun .

Shun : I know what you could do.

Runo : Really I'm up for any suggestion.

Shun* thinking* I know now julie is right : Runo how bout we go grab some lunch ?

Runo: sure shun =) .

Runo was super happy she felt like she was dreaming the whole thing up.

shun: Runo watch oooh are you alright Runo?

Runo froze she was soooo happy. that she closed her eyes and didn't see the pillar in the mall and walked into it .

Runo : yes I'll be fine Shun.

Runo was dizzy and seeing stars fly around. her head in circles .just then two people in cloaks appeared right in front of them .
