"Good bye Ryo! You'll be back soon, right?" You asked as you kissed his cheek.

"I'll come back when I know who I am. I've got to go to Peru." He squeezed your hand. "Be safe."

"I will." You gave him one last look, just in case, and then you walked back in to Miki's house.

"Oh, hi YN. Did you have fun with your brother?" She asked from the couch.

"Did I hear YN?" Akira ran down the stairs and enveloped you in a hug. "Missed you."

"I missed you too, Aki. And no, Miki, it wasn't much fun but it's just something he has to do."

"Well I don't know why he had to take you with him..." Akira was grouchy as he walked with you over towards the couch. "Has your dad called?"

Miki shook her head.

"Did you find anything?" She asked.

"I'll ask him." Akira sighed.

"Onii-san?" You clarified at the same time Miki spoke.

"You mean Ryo?"

"He can probably help."

"He's busy, Aki, I don't know if he has time."

"Seriously? What kind of person is he?" Miki asked.

"He tries his best I think. I don't know... I guess I'm bias because I grew up with him. What do you think, Aki?"

"I met Ryo at a pier. He was all wet and rolled up with YN in his arms. He was there just like an abandoned kitten."

"So, you became his friend, huh?" Miki asked as she sat up to let the cat inside.

"I guess I was lonely too." He mentioned as he looked at his phone and hugged you tightly. "He replied already!"

"Oh good. That's nice of him." You remarked as you inhaled deeply. You loved how Akira smelled; it smelled like reassurance.

"He found them! Your mom is at the park in Ebisu. Tell that to your dad. Tell him we'll meet at the park." Akira smiled. "Mm. Maybe you should stay home, YN. I have a weird feeling that you should just stay safe and stay here."

"No fair!" You pouted. "I want to come."

"That's amazing!" Miki cheered as she texted her dad.

"You know what? I'll just go there alone. You two stay here." He ran outside.

"I'm going after him. Miki, you should stay here and watch your house... Good luck." You sprinted off after him.

"Go back inside, YN." Akira growled as he changed form.

"No. You'll take me with you if I have to impale you with all my thorns to stick on to you. Or, I'll fly myself."

"Can you even?" He hesitated and looked back at you. If you could fly, he wouldn't mind the company. You could stay out of the battles and just follow him.

"Let me try!" You focused hard. Normally, your plants were flowers and vines, but you thought that maybe, just maybe, if you could make leaf wings it would work.

"Damn. Cute. Let's get going before I can't resist you anymore." Akira's low voice rumbled as he took off.

Looking at your body, you noticed that you had sprung four-leaf clovers all over, including one giant one on your back.

"This works." You shrugged and took off after him.
