In one week, the practice match with the vampires went fine and Toma Kira hasn't appeared but suddenly, before the National Tournament, a black, letter envelope is given to Kuran Kaname. He opened it and read;

The Samurai's Girl dies while the Samurai Junior is devoured by me... Protect them all you can tomorrow!

Kaname quickly knew that Echizen Ryoma cannot participate in the Nationals. He told it first to his great grandmother and Yumiko. Later on, the three of them told him that they have to leave Cross Academy and allow himself to stop playing Tennis.

"Do you understand how much danger you are in?" Kaname asked.

"Hai," Echizen said.

"The three of us will live somewhere far away from this place. I can't allow him to kill you!" cried Miyaki.

Echizen hugged his grandmother and after that, he wore his white polo and brown hat. It was painful for him to leave his tennis racket, and Seigaku Clothes in Cross Academy but he knows that his grandma just wanted to protect him.

Chairman Cross quickly contacted Coach Ryuzaki and lied to her that Echizen has been very ill. When the team knew that he won't come, they really felt very sad and prayed he'll soon be fine but after two days, they knew slight of the truth. Echizen and Yumiko are together but they are missing.

Echizen, Miyaki and Yumiko glimpsed at the National Tournament after they have settled inside a hotel full of humans. "Be careful, you understand? Your human friends musn't see you," Miyaki reminded him as he was walking to buy some Ponta.

After he put his coin in the Vendo Machine, two cans of Ponta fell off. He took both of the cans and quickly went to the Finals Court. To hide himself, he only stayed at the very back.

Sakuno is under the Sakura Tree talking with Tomoka. It was obvious in her voice that she is really sad. "I wonder when Ryoma will go back."

She saw Nanako walking while crying. She quickly approached her, "What's the problem?"

Sakuno is still clueless about what the team knows. Nanako quickly told her, "I have to tell his parents he's missing. No one can find him!"

The Seigaku team still focused in winning which made him smile. He doesn't want them to worry or anything and so, when he was already going to return where Miyaki and Yumiko are, he hid behind the tree when he saw Sakuno crying and hugging a box of bento while screaming, "Ryoma-kun!!! You're not missing, right? You'll soon go back, right? RYOMA-KUN!!! I thought you'll be here, now! I want you to taste my bento again!"

People were staring at her confusedly and weirdly. Echizen can even hear murmurs that she may have been crazy.

Ryoma cannot take her tears anymore and so, he showed up to him by giving her a can of soda. "Stop. It's annoying."

Sakuno looked at where the voice is and when she looked up, she saw Ryoma. She dried her tears and knew that the person in front of her is truly Ryoma. "Ryoma-kun!" she happily said.

Ryoma didn't say anything that much but hugged her and told her, "Forgive me."

After ten minutes, Yumiko appeared. She was really surprised to see him hugging another woman and so, when they both saw her, they quickly separated.

Yumiko told her irritatedly, "Your grandma already told you not to show up to anybody!"

"Why?" Sakuno asked. Echizen quickly held Yumiko's hands and told her, "Do my punishment. Let her forget we met each other today, Yumiko-sama."

Yumiko stared at his painful eyes, "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure. If ever Toma Kira appears here, she'll be his first target. If he learns that she's lying she saw that we appeared here, he'll torment her."
