Chapter 37 - Chapter 35: Things Are Going Down... (part 2)

-Riku: "Iso! What're you doing here alone?"

-Iso: "Oh uh, I just wanted some time alone".

-Riku: "You are just 6! You are NOT going out alone like this!"

-Iso: "yeah sorry..."

Riku notices something is wrong.

-Riku: "...hey, Iso, everything is alright?"

-Iso: "Yes, everything is alright, I just thought about something."

Riku closes to Iso and sits next to him.

-Riku: "What is it?"

-Iso: "...um, but first, are you in danger?"

-Riku: "What?! no no! I ain't in any danger!"

-Iso: "Don't hide it, I heard the conversation between you and Uncle Masani in the middle of the night."

-Riku: "Oh, you overheard..."

-Iso: "I don't want you to be in danger, you know."

-Riku: "What?... Sorry, this was unexpected."

-Iso: "I know, you never really see me care for anyone else."

-Riku: "What makes you say that?"

-Iso: "You know how I am, I am usually the boring and selfish type."

-Riku: "Oh, c'mon, don't say that."

-Iso: "I assure you I am, when we went to the 'a museum*,' everyone of you seemed bored and didn't wanna stay any longer, that's why I actually told you guys I had enough." (refers to chapter 30)

-Riku: "First of all, that's not true, we really had a great time, you didn't know it, but later that day, without you knowing, they did tell me they had a great time."

-Iso: "Wasn't Momo saying all the time, 'I am bowed'?"

-Riku: "...Maybe except her, she's just a toddler anyway."

Flashback. After chapter 30 but before chapter 31.

-Momo: "kurute musuum!"

-Riku: "Yes, Momo, we're going there."

As they continued walking, Iso went somewhere to drink some water.

-Riku: "Be careful!"

-Yaku: "Riku!"

-Riku: "ahh! What?!"

-Yaku: "Sorry for scaring you... Anyway, this one museum was...Something, I hope Iso isn't mad about us because he might think we all found it unfunny."

-Riku: "What are you talking about? I didn't find it unfunny, if Iso is happy, I am automatically happy, that's how the perfect dad should be!"

-Yaku: "Uh, W-well! B-big sisters are A-alos meant to be like that! I-i also didn't find it unfunny!"

-Juni: "I didn't find it unfunny, I found Iso explaining all that unnecessary information quite impressive, that exceeded even my own abilities sometimes."

-Amane: "halfway through I did find it boring, but thinking about it back, it got a lot of potential, especially in drawings."

-Momo: "It was bowing."

-Everyone: "...she will get it soon enough...yeah."

Back to now.

-Iso: "...that doesn't change the fact that I am a selfish guy."

-Riku: "I am not so sure about that. During that day, you did care about how everyone was feeling during the tour, right? And you just said you don't want me to be in danger, right?"

-Iso: "Oh yes, I did say that..."

-Riku: "And don't worry, if you are sad because you didn't get a competition arc, I will take care of the author by myself and rewrite the whole novel to get you a competition arc."

-Iso: "That is very unnecessary...But I still don't know, why are you in danger?"

-Riku: "I have no idea, Masani told me there was a rich, creepy dude searching for me."

-Iso: "Rich dude? I bet it's the rich kid's dad."

-Riku: "Who?"

-Iso: "the rich kid who participated in all the competitions that the others participated in that day and who lost 4 times."

-Riku: "Oh yeah, that kid, I also thought it could be his dad, but I am not so sure."

-Iso: "well I have a clue, after Momo won her competition, he got up from her kick and went to the locker room, I overheard him talking to his dad and I think his dad said something like 'Come home, explain me more" since he's a rich kid, his dad is surely a rich dude, maybe that 'rich creepy due' you said is him"

-Riku: "You overhear even the government at this point...but you may be right"

-Iso: "And if what I am saying is true, then you aren't the one who is in danger, but it is Yaku, Juni, Amane, and Momo since they all beat him."

Riku takes a moment to realize...

-Riku: "OH CRAP I LEFT THEM ALONE IN THE APARTMENT!"

Meanwhile.

Yaku opened the door.

-Yaku: "I am not letting him search Iso, I will be the one finding him!"

-Amane: "Didn't he tell us to stay inside the room?"

-Juni: "He can't be fighting death, I have it as a gift."

-Yaku: "he's taking a little too much time finding Iso, I am also worried, you know?"

Someone knocks at the door.

-Momo: "Papa?"

-Yaku: "If that's him, why would he knock?"

Yaku opens the door, only to find the same Rich kid with his dad, who immediately kidnaps all of them.

Back to be park.

Riku's inner survival instinct only says one thing...

"Kids in danger!"

Riku instantly takes Iso with him and sprints back to his apartment and stopping just near his apartment.

-Riku: "Iso, please stay here, Dad has some affairs to finish off RIGHT NOW!"
