"I think we can rest here for the night...we can set the bonfire over there and sleep near it...", said Tsubasa as he and Gen put their bags down on the ground. Gen looks around and then turns towards her bag. She then takes something. Tsubasa too notices it.

"I guess another packet of chips, huh?", he asked.

"What? No...that's for the night (Tsubasa does a sweat drop) I bought a tent in case we stop near forests..."

"You bought a tent?"

"Yeah...what do you think? I will sleep on the ground? That's ridiculous...you didn't bring a tent?"

"Me? I just sleep at the open...it's actually great you know..."

"It's great? Don't you worry about little bugs coming near your mouth and you swallowing it while you're asleep?"

"(laughs) Nah...I don't..."

"You don't? You are not joking, aren't you?"

"Nope...I do this everytime..."

"Everytime? (thinks in her mind) No wonder he is known as the eagle of the sky...he is adapting like it....good grief", thought Gen smiling weirdly.

"Is there something wrong?", asked Tsubasa.

"Oh...it's nothing...hey...maybe we can share the tent...you don't need to sleep outside..."

"I can sleep in the tent? (blushes) you don't need to do that...I am okay at sleeping outside...I am sure there won't be any space for me to sleep with you..."

"What are you talking about? I would love to share the tent...and don't even think about the space...it's very big you know...so wanna help me in setting the tent?", said Gen with a smile.

"(shocks and smiles) Yeah...I would love to help", said Tsubasa.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Okay...I guess it's all set...I can't believe it's still awesome as ever...don't you think, Tsubasa?", asked Gen looking at it.

"(looking weird) Yeah...can I ask you a question?"

"What is it?"

"When was the last time you used the tent?"

"The last time? Oh...I used it when me and Gingka were 5 years old...", said Gen.

"5 years old? I thought so...", said Tsubasa as he looked at the tent weirdly. The tent can fit only one person and it was covered with Pegasus' icons.

"so...this tent...does it belong to Gingka?", he asked.

"How did you know?"

"Wasn't it that obvious? Pegasus icons?"

"Well...I had a better tent full of Accalia icons...but that naughty idiot a.k.a Gingka, spoiled it and so for revenge, I took his tent instead..."

"Am I really in a dream? Or is this really Gen which I didn't know? I guess the Director was right...she is worse than a 6 year old...", thought Tsubasa.

"Anyways...how is the tent?"

"(does a sweat drop) Yeah...its fine...but I am not sleeping in it..."

"Why? There are hardly anyone here..."

"Gen....have you seen the size of the tent? Only one person can sleep in it..."

"Come on, its not that (realizes she is an idiot and does a sweat drop) Okay...I got your point..."

"You can sleep in it...I will be good sleeping outside...."

"You sure?"

"Yeah I am....don't worry..."

"Okay...well then guess I am going to take a nap...see ya later..."

"Now? You are going to sleep?"

"Well...I need to restore my energy for the next battle I face....and I have to be prepared for the crystal too...so what are you gonna do?"

"Me? I was thinking of training with Eagle...and after that I am gonna search for food and wood for the bonfire...."

"Well okay...I guess (yawns) I will leave all to you...sweet dreams, Tsubasa", said Gen as she sleeps. Tsubasa does a sweat drop.

"Did I get a babysitter job or something? Nevermind...", thought Tsubasa. But then he smiled and went his way. But Gen acted like she was sleeping as she got up.

"Phew! He fell for it...now is my chance to observe him and (takes a small book out of her pocket) takes notes about him...so that I don't blow up and start blushing at him the next time I talk to him...but I have to be very silent...", said Gen as she came out of the tent.

Soon she found Tsubasa who was training Eagle and started to watch him. She took notes. There was times that Tsubasa felt someone watching and Gen was almost caught. But then he ignored. It went on till the night until Gen lost him. She looked around and saw no one. Then she came out of her hiding place.

"Huh? Where did Tsubasa go? Sheesh, now what will I do?"

"I knew something was up (Gen shocks and Tsubasa comes out from his hiding place) why are you spying on me, Gen?", said Tsubasa as Gen slowly turns around with a weird smile.

"There you Tsubasa! I was searching for you, I was feeling hungry when I woke up and then I saw you not return till now...", said Gen weirdly.

"You've been lying a lot lately (Gen shocks) and now you are spying on me? Is something wrong? you got to tell the truth..."

"There is nothing wrong (laughing weirdly) and I am not spying on you..."

"Oh really? Then (takes out Gen's small notebook) what do we have here?"

"Huh? Where did you get that?"

"Well...not gonna tell you..."

"That notebook is nothing I tell you..."

"Its the first time you have it in your hand...you have to tell me the truth, right now...I won't leave you until I know it..."

"Come on, it's nothing..."

"Don't lie to me, Gen...what's wrong if I know it? Am I not your friend or something?"

"Well I...you see....its...umm....(she suddenly looks into her pocket and sees the chips which she got an idea) okay...just hear me out...(starts blushing) I...have a...(looks at Tsubasa who was serious) I have a crush on Masamune...(Tsubasa shocks) Yeah that's why I have been lying to you all this time so...you mind giving the book?", said Gen weirdly.

"You have a thing for Masamune? But why are you spying on me and taking notes on me?"

"Well...just want some...umm...good qualities of you...I don't want to be a frozen cat near him...I just want to impress him thats all?", said Gen laughing weirdly.

"My good qualities? Well that's (Gen shocks) makes even more sense...you could just ask me instead of spying on me you know...", said Tsubasa giving the book which she takes it in speed.

"Well...I don't know how to tell anyone about this....I am really new to this stuff...that's why..."

"Well I thought so (smiles) but...(Gen shocks) you said that you would concentrate on battling more right? So you realized that you can't keep your word?"

"I guess so..."

"So how long has the crush thing started?", asked Tsubasa sadly.

"Well...I...eversince the finals of the world tournaments...I just don't know why...but it is kind of weird...he is like my brother...but different...anyways leave that, where were you this whole time?"

"Me? Well...I just found an awesome site...so..."

"An awesome site? Here? Where?"

"Just follow me...", said Tsubasa as he and Gen went forward. They reached a big banyan tree. Tsubasa climbs it.

"It's up there...come on", he said as Gen too climbed the tree. Soon they reached the top most part where they can see the surrounding from above. It was so beautiful as Gen's eyes sparkled under the moonlight. She smiled at the view.

"Wow...you are right...it's so awesome...it's like in heaven...and its pretty much cold here too...it's so good here...how did you find this place, Tsubasa?"

"Just roamed around like I always do...and from here, I saw you coming out of your hiding place (Gen shocks) so you can't hide anywhere in this place...the tent was completely shut too...so I knew you were on to something...."

"You know the truth now...so why back on the topic...we could just forget it, Tsubasa....", said Gen weirdly.

"There are times that I don't get you...but nevermind that...I like climbing trees eversince when I was 7 years old...without no one's help...I was kind of alone when I was a baby..."

"You mean...(looks down) you don't know who your parents are?"

"Yeah...the WBBA took care of me when I was a baby...trained me and when I was 5 years old...I got the job of becoming a spy for them..."

"Wow...at that age...I guess I would be playing with Gingka or something...I won't even know that there is a thing called beyblade in this world (Tsubasa laughs) so your surname Ootori, is it really yours or...?"

"Yeah its mine...the WBBA knew who i was...but they never wanted me to know who my parents are..."

"Why? You got to ask that?"

"It won't be no good...(Gen shocks and Tsubasa lies on the bush) If I knew about them, maybe I would get sad of why they ditched me...but whatever reason is, all I know till now, I don't miss them even a teensy bit..."

"Huh? But why?"

"Because of you...(Gen shocks) seeing your Dad and Gingka and you, I guess I was never left alone (Tsubasa smiles and Gen looks down) and I can feel their love towards you during when you were in the dark power...why do you really hate them a lot? There is nothing to hate them..."

"It's not that I hate them...all i want is for my dad to not treat me as a princess...and see my power which I have with Accalia...he just...ever since Mom died...he was, I don't know, scared of me going through the wrong path...and it became worse when I had the dark power...when I see he appreciating Gingka almost everyday...I just feel that he doesn't even know that he has a daughter too.."

"Come on, its not the truth, I am sure he really loves you...you are always you know...umm...let's say...overanalyzing things...and besides, if he does hate you, will he give you permission to this trip? (Gen shocks) That's true love of a parent you know, and that's why I really like your dad, some people don't show their emotions out that easily...you are also like that, you know.."

"Me?"

"Umm..yeah...I got to know what was really going with you and your feelings today...you are just like your dad.."

"I am not...everyone says that I look like my mom..."

"That's about your physical features..."

"Even my inner self..."

"No way...look just forget it...my point is, just be who you are and then you will get what you want for reals..."

"Just be myself? (looks at Accalia and smiles) I guess you are right as always, Tsubasa...(lies on the bush) so what is your dream? You got something settled for the future right?"

"For the future? I don't know..."

"You mean you never thought about the future? That's a shocking..."

"You can always expect me to be perfect always, Gen...I never really thought about the future that much..."

"Oh I see..."

"What about you? You still want to battle with Accalia in the future too, I guess?"

"Of course I am gonna...but I was thinking of something else...and I don't know if it is stupid..."

"Let me guess, you are gonna open an ice cream shop in the future?"

"What? No...well...(looking at the sky) I was thinking about becoming the director of the WBBA in the future..."

"For reals?"

"It's just a thought, I am not that serious about it and I am sure my dad would have decided on that already..."

"I think you will make a pretty good director (Gen shocks as she looks at him) whatever you are in the future, you are gonna be great...trust me.."

"You think so?"

"Yeah...100%"

"Well...if I became the director, maybe you could be my assistant (Tsubasa shocks and looks at her) there is no one else I could count on...so...what do you think?"

"I...I don't know what to say...I would love to..."

"Yay! Well...can I ask you something?"

"Huh?"

"Why...why do you support me everytime?"

"(looks at her and smiles) Because you are my best friend (Gen looks at him) Best friends support each other...and your decisions are amazing you know...", said Tsubasa with a smile. Gen shocks and starts blushing.

"I am speechless now...thank you, Tsubasa...you are a great friend..."

"Your welcome...", said Tsubasa as he looks at Gen who was looking at the sky. He looks sad.

"Masamune, huh?", thought Tsubasa.
