But if you feel hatred and alone, I will come to take you, Accalian Princess

Gen wakes up suddenly, catching her breath from the nightmare. She found herself inside her tent with Accalia near her side. She takes Accalia and looks at it. Meanwhile Tsubasa was in a video call with Ryo and Hikaru.

"What?!", exclaimed Hikaru.

"The crystal was taken by someone else an year ago, huh? Hmm...now that was some twist...", said Ryo thinking.

"And its not just that...(they both look) Gen...she...", said Tsubasa looking down.

"The Wolf Demon Curse, isn't it? (Tsubasa shocks) Aiko's dad told you only I guess...", said Ryo which shocked Hikaru.

"Wolf Demon's curse? What do you mean, Director?", she asked.

"Its a dark curse by Accalia...I will explain the details later but right now, Tsubasa...where is Gen and how did she take it?", asked Ryo. Tsubasa looks down.

"(remembers the moment) When she found out about the crystal being gone, she just became so depressed that made the curse come up, her eye colour turned red and her white part became black, black veins came up near her eyes and even shocking was that, her nails were growing so big (Hikaru shocks) She didn't know about the curse till now and this time she was feeling hurt by the curse which made her unconsious. I later gave her some first aid and she is asleep now I guess...", said Tsubasa.

"What is this curse? Now this is even complicated than the dark power she had within....", said Hikaru.

"It sure is...all I can say now is for the time being, we can leave the topic about the crystal...the legendary bladers can still defeat Nemesis even without its presence...", said Ryo.

"So about the curse? Should I tell Gen about it?", asked Tsubasa. Ryo sighs.

"I guess she saw herself transforming right? So she might know about it...if she asks further, you just tell her...", said Ryo.

"Okay, Director", said Tsubasa as the video call ends. He looks down for a while. That's when he saw Gen coming out from the opposite side of the tent.

"Where do you think you're going?" Gen shocks and turns around and sees Tsubasa behind the tent. Gen then looks away.

"I...I am gonna train with Accalia...", said Gen in serious.

"What? But you are not recovered yet...and its best if you don't battle for a while..."

"So what? (Tsubasa shocks) I don't care if I am hurt...I am gonna battle no matter what, until I become stronger than anyone of you...so just leave me alone...", said Gen as she almost went forward.

"Battling is fine and I appreciate it but... when you are no condition to battle a.k.a you are hurt, I can't allow you to do it...", said Tsubasa.

"Just because my dad told you to take care of me...don't take the full advantage of it...and besides you told him about the crystal, did you? What did he say? ", said Gen.

"He said to tell you that to leave it and go back to Bey City...before that h-"

"I knew it (Tsubasa shocks)...he wouldn't even care about it even from the start...leave it he says..the same dialogue that I expected as his answer for almost everything I do..."

"He didn't say that just because he hates you or anything, Gen...but he did said to just forget about it..."

"And what? See his son get the spotlight and his daughter walk under his son't shadow?"

"That's not what I meant, Gen...look, I know you are disappointed..."

"Who wouldn't be? I think I know who all, my dad, my brother Gingka, the people who see Gingka as the only strongest blader from the Hagane family and treat me as Gingka's sister or dark shadow, almost everybody I know and that includes you too Tsubasa..."

"I understand how you feel, Gen...I reall-"

"Don't say that just to make me feel better...that trick won't work on me...you don't know how I face my life everyday, when I walk in the streets, people talk behind my back, 'Is that Gingka Hagane's sister?' or 'Is she the Hagane sister who went on a dark rampage during the world tournaments', when I hear it everytime, its like an arrow that shoot my heart out of nowhere, And that crystal...that crystal was the only thing that I want to make me strong and to understand my mom better but I...I failed...and Gingka and my Dad, they wouldn't even care about it, you don't have a clue about I feel because you never had a mom or a dad or even the annoying brother who is a headache eversince he was born, you were brought up by the WBBA and in other words, u never had a family in the first place! So stop saying you understand me because you don't have any of those things!", shouted Gen as she looked down.

Suddenly something was thrown at Gen's face. She took it from her head and looked at it. It was her jacket that was still nice and clean. She shocks and slowly looked up. She sees Tsubasa looking down in anger.

"Tsubasa...I..."

"The Gen I know would think and talk everytime, but eversince I got back to Bey City, you changed not only in a good way, right now, all I want to say to you is (looks up and Gen sees Tsubasa angry) You are an idiot!", shouted Tsubasa. Gen becomes shocked and then she begins to be angry even more.

"If you see me as an idiot, then just go back home and get out of my life, Tsubasa!", Gen shouted back and she turned around and ran away. Tsubasa really was hurt and felt sad for Gen.

Gen on the other hand, reached near a river. She sat near a rock and wore the jacket. She then remembered what she said to Tsubasa and felt sad and regret. She took out Accalia and sooner or later, she started to have tears in her eyes. She burst into tears and covered herself. Accalia fell from her hands and it was on the ground. From a mile away, Tsubasa was behind a tree looking at Luprio. And thats when he really realized what to do.

He comes out of his hiding place and walks towards Gen. Gen hears the crunching sound of the grass and looks. She was shocked to see Tsubasa but looked away in tears.

"Why...why would come to me (Tsubasa stops walking) ...even if you know...that I literally hurted your feelings...?", asked Gen looking away. Tsubasa then again begins to walk and reaches her.

"Because I didn't know you didn't mean it (Gen shocks)...It's natural for someone to say hurtful things to the person near you...you did it before remember? When you lost Accalia due to the dark power that you shouted at us in the hospital like it was our fault...a lot of people do that and even I have done it... and that was now to you...and for that, I am really sorry..."

"No...I should be sorry...I am an idiot like you said...(twists her fist and tears came out) I am just too late for almost everything...just like Ryuga said...I will always be a step back from Gingka...I want to walk on my own shadow, not in Gingka's because I am not Gingka Hagane, nor Gingka Hagane's sister, I have a name and that's Gen Hagane! But I guess that...I am useless...why does Gingka always have to be a legendary blader while I don't....I just don't get it...and I failed my mom and now I think...her faith in me was gone..."

"Hey, don't like that...(sits near her on the grass) She would understand how you feel...but you are not alone, Gen...I am not a legendary blader either...that's what I mean by understanding how you feel...but that does not stop you from becoming stronger...(Gen looks) show it without the crystal...and that's what I am gonna do...I am gonna train to be stronger...and (kneels in front of her and wipes her tears which she shocks) The Gen I know does not cry...she has a strong will power and spirit...and you are not useless...", said Tsubasa with a smile. Gen looks at him and then smiles.

"I guess you are right...wow, I did cry a little bit huh?"

"A little bit?! You were crying like a waterfall (Gen laughs and smiles) There is the Gen I missed all this time...", said Tsubasa.

"Oh really? You missed me, huh?", asked Gen laughing.

"Of course I did...", said Tsubasa laughing. Gen gets up and looks at the night sky.

"You know what...(turns around) I will train Accalia and become stronger even without the crystal like you said...not that I mean now...but I think we will be going back to Bey City huh?"

"Well not yet..."

"Huh?"

"Your dad gave us permission to enter a tournament called Destroyer Dome which is gonna happen in America within two days...the qualifying rounds were done today but the WBBA gave permission for us...there is a chance a legendary blader would be there so he said to check it out...so you in?"

"Of course I am in, you dummy! There is no way I am saying no to a battle..."

"I knew you would say that...but there is also one more thing you have to deal with too..."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Masamune...you still have to tell him how you feel right? (Gen shocks and Tsubasa looks down) I mean we are going to America so we would meet him eventually so..."

"Oh (looks down) yeah I guess I forgot about that...", said Gen looking down. Silence occured.

"Umm...there is something I want to tel-"

"Is it about the Wolf Demon Curse?", asked Gen which shocked Tsubasa.

"You know about that?"

"Well you see...it was there in my mom's journal...she wrote about it and then I knew that I had it in me the first time I battled with Asuna...I felt an unusal power and feeling..."

"Wait all this time...you knew about it and you didn't tell anyone? For a while, I thought how to tell you about it..."

"Yeah I kind of knew (Tsubasa shocks) Wasn't it obvious? The tent I was sleeping on was near to you? So I heard almost everything...", said Gen with a smile.

"I guess I didn't notice..."

"Well...I guess I will be going to sleep then...I have a big match that I need to be prepared...goodnight Tsubasa!", said Gen as she went to the tent.

"Yeah...goodnight", said Tsubasa with a smile.

Gen was walking and walking and then she realized something.

"Am I forgetting something? (She shocks) Oh no! That was my chance to tell Tsubasa how I feel...I am such an idiot...well (takes out the bracelet) I am gonna tell him in America...just you wait! Tsubasa...", said Gen with a smile.
