    Free walks up to me along with Valt, "How was that moving so fast? It was crazy fast!" Valt says. I expected Free to at least say something along good job,or something.
   "Freeji what's wrong?" I ask, completely ignoring what Valt said. He gestures for me to follow him, so I do. "I know you're going to have to against Lui," He starts.
   "And that me and you will have to face off against me at least once," he continued.
     "So let's not train together, and don't tell me about any of your new moves and I won't tell you mine," He ends. My eyes widened in shock, I just couldn't believe it, he didn't want anything to do with me.
   Of course I know why, so that why its a surprise when me and him face off. I walk into the back stage room and see a similar face.
   It was Lui. I stayed quiet so he wouldn't notice me, he looks my way, and just stands there with his arms crossed.
   I have many regrets for leaving him when I was little, but he refused to come with me. Away from the damage that was being created at our family household.
   

"You know something, its very easy to tell who you are," Lui says randomly. "Huh?" I asked in surprise. He walks closer to me and grabs my chin, " Lucille Shirasagi," he says.
   "I don't know who you're talking about" I say pulling my face away from his grip. "Oh? Then why do you have the twin bey of Nightmare Lunior? How about the hair? The way you speak? Or how about what happened when he told you about me?" Lui says.
   I can't lie, I was starting to tear up, I didn't want to cry. But what he was saying made me remind of my regrets.
   "But for your sake, I'll keep quiet, sister" Lui says. I look at him, under my mask

was wide eyes. He found me out, quick. Very quick.
     "Lui.." I say before bursting into tears. He hugs me, "It's ok, I forgive you."  There is something you all never seen about Lui. He has a heart, he can be sweet.
  But only for family he cares about. I know that because he was NEVER nice to our parents, but hey they weren't nice to us either.
   I hug him back still crying, he lets go. "I need to go, I'll see you later," he says and walks off.
    I nod and go the other direction. I wipe away the tears under my mask with my sleeve.
    I walk back to BC SOL, and take my mask off. My face was red, from crying. Who would have guessed, Free wasn't there..
   He did say we shouldn't be near each other during the tournament. But that only makes me want to spend time with him more.
   And I also want to spend time with Lui. He's probably training, and wouldn't bare to take time off.
  But maybe he would, because it was me?  Or maybe I should just stick to hanging out with Free.
      Valt, Honcho, and Sasha walk up to me. "What's wrong?" Sasha asks.
  "Nothing, just that Free says we can't hang out because of the tournament." I say hiding the Lui part.
