Pt3 to 'Partnership of Corruption'
A few weeks Later.
~
The gang has been observing Boat for a few weeks now. Plotting how to get him back. Luckily Nobody's been challenged to a battle yet and Boat hasn't severely injured anyone. Richie was really worried, he never told anyone. But he had a crush on his fellow Ry.(Idk how to fricken spell these names ;-;)
Of course he was probably trying the hardest of the group to get him back. He avoided talking to Boat, not wanting to risk getting in a fight with him. But today was the day he would try to talk to him.

Richie's Pov
-----------------------------
Richie: I was sat on the couch, waiting for Boat to come down. I was excited but nervous at the same time when he finally came down the stairs.
Richie: "Good morning Boat! How are you?"
Richie: I tried to keep my voice calm and cheerful as if nothing was wrong. Although, he seemed to not want to talk to me as he completely ignored me. It hurt a little to be ignored by my crush, But I just had to remember it wasn't him.
Richie: "Boat? are you ok?"
Richie: he sighed, seeming to be annoyed.
Boat: "Besides annoying pests in my way, I'm perfectly fine."
Richie: That definitely was one thing I didn't want to get used to.
Richie: "are you sure your ok? your usually so nice, have you been getting sleep?"
Boat: "I told you, I'm fine. Stop pestering me."
Richie: So far, I've noticed something about our conversation. He hasn't been particularly mean to me, which is much different from his conversations with the other students. could it be because we're friends? I patted the space on the couch beside me.
Richie: "Come sit. Relax for a bit."
Richie: He contemplated it for a bit before deciding to sit.
Boat: "With how nice your acting, I should be the one asking if your ok."
Richie: I chuckled at his statement. It's true I was being nicer to him then usual, It was strange, almost like we switched personality's.
Richie: "Well, I just thought I should be nice to you for once, your my friend."
Boat: "hmmm."
Richie: "I heard that you've been challenging people to duel's like Crazy, may I ask why?"
Richie: He looked away, deep in thought.
Boat: "Power's nice...I want to be the strongest, so nobody can ever hurt me again."
Richie: "what happened to make you feel that way?"
Boat: "I found out Fenix had faked the whole memory loss thing. I challenged him to a duel. But the only way he would except was if I bet Yamato..."
Richie: I knew where this was going.
Boat: "I figured I could win so I accepted his terms...But then I lost...I've never felt so much pain."
Richie: I frowned as tears started to form in his eyes. I pulled him into a hug. I didn't like seeing him cry. he sniffled after a few minutes, pushing himself away from me.
Boat: "Tell anyone about this and I'll beat you so bad you'll never want to duel again."
Richie: Anyone else would be terrified bye his words and tone of voice but I merely laughed at him.
Richie: "I promise."
Richie: I smiled, knowing I had made progress, despite being Corrupted he still had a soft spot.
