Dimension

Part 12

Takaki rubs his eyes several times. How is this possible?

There are two Ueda!!

"Hold in tight!" Kei-Ty reminds the confuse boy as the white horse starts flying.

"Wait! What is going on? Why there are two Ueda-kun?"

"Only one is Uepi. The other one is the bad guy," Bubu looks at Takaki.

"HAH?"

"In this dimension Uepi is the Dark Emperor, Yuya's real father," Kei-Ty explains.

This new information put Takaki in a huge blank. "Is there anymore surprise that I need to know?"

"For now... no," Kei-Ty who is flying along with the unicorn replies. "Stay focus. We are about to enter the underground now."

"I don't see any entrance. All I see are rocks," the unicorn flies towards a giant rock. "Hey horsie! We'll be dead if you hit that-"

"Kyaaaa!!!!!!!!"

"I must say I am so proud to know that my own self is this brave in the other side."

Ueda coldly stare back. "And I am ashamed that 'me' is a cruel and yet coward ruler."

A loud evil laugh echoes in the air. "You have good sense of humor. You would make an excellent warrior if you became my servant."

"Not interested!" Ueda launches his first magic attack. With a flick of his wrists turbulence is formed. He later points at the other him, causing the strong wind to hit the Dark Emperor.

"You are too childish," the opponent arrogantly walks out from the midst of dust. "That is the first thing we taught our kids. In other words you are not my match."

"Really? Then I'll show what I've been training in these past years. I don't think fairies do this- haiya!!!!" Ueda starts hoping around with his fist ready for punch.

"This is what I call the Ultimate Kick Boxing- fairy version!!!"

"Where are you going?"

"Isn't it obvious? I'm looking for Yuya."

Inoo grabs Daiki's hand. "Have you forgotten what Ueda-kun said? We are not supposed to leave this place!"

"He's not here! And this is my house! Why should I listen to him?"

"Make sense," Yamada voices up, causing him to receive a fierce stare from Inoo.

Daiki releases his hand from the other boy. "Whether you like it or not, I'm going. I'm not staying here and wait till their dead body to return."

"Ueda-kun will save them," Inoo tries to reassure the worried boy.

"Ueda-kun? Why do you trust him so much? He hasn't contact us in hours! How do you even know if he's at our side?"

"Wowowo..." Nakamaru stands up. "That is not something nice to say about your senpai. He saved you people from the two guys remember? How can you question his loyalty?"

"Even so how sure you are that he is still are out there alive?"

This time nobody dare to answer. Daiki is right, there is no proof or sign that show Ueda or Ryutaro are still breathing. Left alone Takaki who has been missing for almost 24 hours now.

"I can't let you do that," Inoo insists. This time he stands at the front door, preventing Daiki to escape.

"You have no right to do so!" Daiki shouts in anger. "I'm leaving!"

"Over my dead body!"

"Why do you have to make it so difficult?!"

"Because I love you!"

The last statement that came out from Inoo's mouth gives shock not only to Daiki but also to Yamada and Nakamaru who have been listening since the beginning.

Inoo wipes his face several times before walking towards Daiki who is still looking surprised. "I love you, and I don't want anything happen to you," he gently put his hands on Daiki's shoulder.

But the other boy back off a few steps. "You are crazy. You know that I only love him."

"I know. You told me everything. Don't you see now how hard it is for me to deal with him knowing your feelings towards him? Knowing that you chose that clumsy boy over me?"

"My mistake then," Daiki bites his lower lips. "I shouldn't have told anyone. I should have just kept it to myself."

"Dai-chan-"

"Don't call my name," Daiki cuts in. "I'll look for them- Ryu, and both my Yuya. Nobody can stop me."

"Ryu!" Takaki runs to get Ryutaro who is locked up inside a cell. But whenever Takaki tries to touch the rusty door he gets electrocuted.

"Step over," Hika orders. The boy places his palms about few centimeters from the cell, chanting a spell. The moment the rhyme finishes the rusty iron cell turn into wooden one.

"Ah... Hika! You are supposed to make it disappear," Bubu whines.

Hika put up a long face. "I tried... Why Hika's magic does not work? Huuuuu... Hika wants Kei-Ty..."

"Kei-Ty is fighting the guards. Do you want to take over her role?"

Hika shakes his head.

"Well, your magic does work," Takaki tries to cheer the little fairy. "Just not the way you want it to be. But never mind. Let me show you human's power. Haiya!!" Takaki kick the wooden door with his strong left leg –thanks to the soccer training Yabu gave him for the Johnny's sports day- and breaking the entrance.

"Ryu!!" Takaki rushes to get Ryutaro who is lying weakly on the floor. "Hang in there Ryu!"

Ryutaro opens his eyes. "Yuya?"

Takaki frowns. "What did you just call me?"

"Yuya... my friend... you come to save me," Ryutaro smiles.

Takaki forcefully pushes Ryutaro on the floor, making a gap between him and the other boy.

Ryu only call me with one name, and it's Bakaki.

"What's wrong Yuya? Why do you push me?"

"You are not Ryu! Where's Ryu?" The tall boy fiercely asks.

'Ryutaro' gets on his feet, smirking at Takaki who is starting to sweat. "His memories said you are stupid. Look like it's not really true."

"What have you done to him?"

"I sent him to hell, and you'll be with him in a moment," 'Ryutaro' role his eyes.

Just when he is about to answer Takaki could sense somebody is standing behind him. He slowly turns around.

"Yama-chan?"

"No, it's Ryo-ya. Nice to meet you Yuya. Sayonara."

Takaki feels a sharp blade piercing his abdomen. His white clothes turn red in few seconds.

"Takaki!!!!" the two little fairies wanted to fly to his side but Takaki stops them.

"Run Bubu... Hika... Find your guardian... Find Ryu..."

Don't end up like me.
