Song: Right Here (Ashes Remain)
After Valt's therapy session:
It was a quiet walk back Valt's house.
He and Free had decided to settle down in America because what better place was there to stay then where Free's boyfriend had won the title of number one blader in the world?
And because of that, Lui and the rest of the crew would come to visit them quite often. Even if they lived on the other side of the world. They were super happy for them. But we're shocked after they found out what Valt had done.
So when Valt wasn't around, they all created the Valt Protection Squad.
They made vows of never letting anything happen to Valt.
Even if they had to sacrifice their life for him.
Almost everyone Valt had ever known made those vows.
The beyclub was the first, including Shu and Ken.
Then BC SOL.
They even Skyped some of Valt's old rivals if they wanted to join. Surprisingly almost everyone did.
To this day, the number of members is still rising.
And who is in charge of this?
Lui of course.
He wanted to do something good in his life for once.
He was partly to blame since he also hadn't treated Valt right.
In all honesty he hadn't treated anyone right in a long time. Probably the closest person he has treated right was Gabe.
He could still remember her and all she did for him.
He would never forget her.
He just wished he could see her again.
Lui had been so lost in his own thoughts that he didn't even realize that Valt was calling his name and waving his hand at his face....
"Lui..... Lui.... hello anyone there?"
Lui snapped out of his thoughts and noticed his surroundings.
They finally had made it back to Valt's house.
Valt took out his keys and unlocked the door.
The house itself wasn't too big. It had three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room, and a kitchen.
Lui went to sit on the couch and Valt sat with him. He gave him a serious look...
"Ok what happened?"
Valt asked in a serious voice.
"What are you talking about?"
Lui was generally confused with Valt's question.
"You've been spacing out a lot lately. Like something was on your mind. Do you want to talk about it?"
Valt asked Lui.
Lui didn't really know if he was ready to tell that story.
It had been so long since all of that happened.
How he had treated him horrible.
How she stood up for him.
It was a really long story.
"I... I"
Lui couldn't get the words to come out of his mouth.
At some point he had started to shake. The next thing he knew, Valt was hugging him and trying to calm down.
"Lui its ok.
You don't have to tell me.
Just know that I'm here for you."
Valt let go and waited for Lui to recollect himself.
Lui took a few deep breaths and stopped himself from shaking.
He looked at Valt..
"Thanks......but I should tell someone. Probably you out of all people.
So get comfortable cause this is going to be a long story."
Valt nodded at Lui's response and waited patiently for Lui to begin.
Lui took a deep breath and started talking...
*Flashback sound to when Lui was 7 years old*
A little boy with light blue flaming hair was walking down the beach.
He had always loved the ocean and was happy to live near it.
He took off his shoes and got close to the water.
He gave a little giggle at the feeling of water and sand between his shoes.
If he could he would stayed there forever.
Just him, the beach, and the ocean.
But he knew he couldn't.
He had to go to school and had to go back to his big sister.
