Yvonne's phone vibrated, waking and reminding her it was early in the morning around the time Valt would wake up so she had to be quick.

She stretched and looked across the room. Her brother was sound asleep, looking peaceful. She thought about what she was doing again. Was it really worth it? Did she really want to do this? Would it be worth it? She loved him of course, but sometimes she would daydream about a world where he didn't exist. Would people notice her more then? It was hard sometimes, being just his shadow and never more. "I'm sorry." She apologised for the pain that the both of them might have to go through. Getting dressed and packing her essentials into her bag as quickly and quietly as possible, she took a quick glance at Yildun whose white angel blades twinkled. It took Yvonne a moment, but she nodded. She understood Yildun. She quietly sat down and started writing, then left the note on her bed.

Trying to stay as silent as possible, Yvonne made her way downstairs to the entrance door and prayed that it didn't creak. Thankfully, she made it without any complications. Stepping out of BC Sol, she glanced back at her former "home" and wished everyone the best.

Walking away from BC Sol with a heavy heart, she recalled her happy memories with everyone there, the smiles she shared, and the fun she had. However, she could not help but also remember every time she was pushed aside, ignored and rejected. It was a bittersweet departure, a mixture of anger, sadness and nostalgia.

Moreover, she could not help but feel slightly hesitant about her decision. Taking one last look, Yvonne made sure to preserve the image of her starting point. She might have not been very happy or well treated there, but it was still where she had been brought up. Letting out one last sigh, she turned her head back to the road and quickened her steps, not wanting to dwell on the past anymore and ignored the wave of uncertainty that threatened to drown her.

She continued walking until the sun shown. Eventually, she reached a park. She sat down on a nearby bench, needing a moment to think about her situation. Yvonne was finally free, but at what cost? She took out her Beyblade and stared, wondering if she had made the right choice. Which was worse, she wondered, living in a home where you didn't exist in or not having one at all?

"Where should I go now?" She questioned. It was unclear whether she was asking herself or Yildun, but that didn't matter right now. She thought about her future and about what to do next. Her plan to run away wasn't well thought out. She just needed to get away from her home, but never considered where she would go after leaving. Where should she live? How would she even find a home? Even if she managed to find one that was willing to take her in, would it treat her better than they did? Even so, what would she do then? Would she join a new team? Would she quit Beyblade forever? There were so many possibilities and she had no idea how to get the best one. Closing her eyes, she sighed, contemplating returning back to them and to continue living as a ghost.

"Hey, are you alright?"

Perking up at the unfamiliar voice, Yvonne lifted her head towards it, praying for the best.

A young boy with dark skin and a band-aid on his nose stared at Yvonne with empathy. "You look like a Beyblader. Around this time of the morning, Beyblade teams would be training. Are you perhaps apart of one? If so.. what are you doing out here?"

Yvonne shuddered, "..I used to be part of one. I left.. and came all the way out here. I've nowhere else to go."

The young boy perked up. "Well.. I'm part of a team. We still have room for more members! Wanna join?"
