Chapter 18 is here~ I don't own cardfight vanguard!

Hazel eyes flashed towards the ground as Mizuha sighed.

"You know how I found you unconscious on the beach right?"

The youngest boy nodded. Mizuha took a breath before continuing.

"Well...... You were actually underneath the metal, like really underneath it, it was hard to get you out from under it..... I think the waves crashed it into you"

The brunette was silent as he listened to the beige haired boy, wondering why he was so hesitant in speaking.

"So what? I got hit by metal and lost my memories, what now?"

Aisen sighed, he was feeling slightly impatient to know what his lover was actually trying to say.

"Well..... The water around you was dark red..... At first I thought it was all of your blood so I panicked. But when I pulled you out, I could see that your injuries weren't enough to cause that blood loss....."

The beige haired boy trailed off, leaving the two listening to hold their breath until he continued.

"I brought you to the hospital first before returning back to the beach, your safety is one of my top priorities after all......"

The brunette felt uneasy, for some reason he was unsure as to whether he wanted Mizuha to continue or not.

"When I returned.... I saw more blood than before on the beach, leading towards the undergrowth.... I looked around but found nothing....."

"....... So Aichi did wash up on the shore....."

The brunette murmured, feeling relieved for a few moments before realizing that it didn't necessarily mean that the blue haired boy was still alive.

"Maybe....."

The beige haired boy whispered softly, feeling slightly shy due to the attention he was getting.

"Why didn't you tell anyone?"

The blue haired boy asked, slightly upset that his love had kept quiet.

"Because I was too preoccupied with hoping that you'd get better.... And then after a while I became worried that I'd get in trouble for saying nothing"

The brunette nodded, he understood the boy, however he couldn't say that he was too pleased with him.

"Thank you for telling us this Mizuha"

Kai said, Mizuha smiled weakly at the brunette.

"So this Aichi, what's he like?"

"He apparently looks identical to me....."

The beige haired boy paled slightly at the younger's words.

"Exactly the same?"

Mizuha whispered, the other two nodded.

"Yeah, why?"

Aisen chirped, trying to be energetic so as to lighten the mood.

"So I might have accidentally taken Aichi and have mistaken him for Aisen?"

"Yeah you could have, however I have a few doubts about Aisen actually being Aichi"

The brunette replied.

"Doubts..... so there's the slightest chance......"

Both younger boys sighed, causing the brunette to shrug.

"We won't know for sure until we find
Aichi"

"But what if he's........"

The blue haired boy trailed off, unable to continue his sentence.

"Then we'd find him..... We've already found his glasses....."

Kai replied, his head was starting to hurt due to all of the possible 'ifs'.

"So........ would you guys mind if I help search?"

The beige haired boy asked, he wanted to help because he was curious about whether he had actually saved his Aisen, he thought so, yet he wanted to make sure.

"I don't see why not"

The brunette replied, knowing that they'd get more ground covered with an extra set of eyes helping them out.

"Yay, Mizuha has joined the fun!"

Both older teens sighed at Aisen's call, both thinking that the younger was quite childish despite their previous conversation.

"The blood trail lead over towards there"

The beige haired boy said as he pointed towards a thicket that the brunette hadn't searched yet.

"Oh yeah..... I almost forgot about that path....."

The blue haired boy replied as he wheeled himself over towards the thicket.

"I don't blame you Aisen..... you haven't traveled on it since you lost your memory"

Sapphires flashed at hazel orbs as the younger crossed his arms and did a little pouting motion.

"Don't look down on me! I'm soon going to be back on my feet"

The brunette raised a brow at the younger's comment, he had assumed that the boy's injury was permanent.

"Yes yes, it's only a matter of time Aisen"

Mizuha sighed, patting the smaller boy's head in the process causing him to blush slightly.

"What's on the path?"

The brunette asked, curious as to what was behind the thicket.

"A narrow path that leads to a cave system, it's easy to get lost in it though"

Jades lit up, it made the brunette hopeful that Aichi had entered the caves and had just gotten lost"

"Oh..... Does that mean you guys are going to leave me here?....."

Aisen said, knowing that his wheelchair probably could only handle wide paths.

"No, we should go tomorrow when the day is new, we don't want to be in their after dark just in case. Anyway I also want to buy a long rope so that we don't get lost"

Mizuha replied, causing the brunette to feel a little disappointed, though Kai did see the reason behind the beige haired boy's concern. It wouldn't be to fun being lost in a cave.

"So we should head back and rest until tomorrow"

Kai said as he looked at the sea, the sunlight was starting to turn orange, causing the sea's surface seem illuminated.

"Yeah, and I'm coming"

The blue haired boy huffed, causing the two older teens to smirk and nod.

"Of course, you've been looking longer than I have Aisen. I'll carry you on the narrow path until we reach the wide cave, Kai will carry your wheelchair until then as well"

Sapphires lit up at the beige haired boy's words.

"Okay!"

The youngest chirped before the three of them dispersed and headed their own ways, law headed towards his hotel while Aisen and Mizuha went to their own house.

"KAI!!!!"

The brunette jumped slightly when Miwa came running towards him when he entered the hotel, the blond seemed somewhat on edge.

"What's wrong?"

The brunette sighed, wondering what could have caused the cheerful blond to act so uneasy.

Me: that's the end of the chappy~

Miwa: Q.Q

Me: what's with you?

Miwa: *sigh*

Kai: he's just acting odd like usual

Miwa: ouch.....

Me: hehe anyway hope ya people enjoyed le chappy~
