Remembering Eureka"s words, and seeing how close they are on separating despite the gloomy atmosphere, Azusa took a deep breath and"Guys, there"s something I need to confess."

Inhaling the fresh air in the morning, Eureka couldn"t help but heave a sigh of relief. Being inside helped her relax and have the best sleep but at the same time she"s still confined so it is still stuffy.
Just as she"s about to start walking someone suddenly jumped at her, hugging her so tight.
"Why, why eureka? Why did she have to do that? It hurts to think she can actually do that," hearing Karen"s crying voice, Eureka already had the idea of what"s going on.
She looked at Feena, whose eyes are obviously puffy, who"s just standing not far from them.
"I can"t breath Karen," she said as she tap Karen"s arm.
But instead of letting go, Karen hugged her tighter.
"*sigh* Then what do you want me to say?" she couldn"t help but ask defeatedly.
"I don"t know!!!! I"m just hurt, that"s what I know. It"s so painful to think she could leave us to die. She tried to kill us Eureka, Azusa triend to kill us. She didn"t even tell us when we first talked with her," she continued crying damping Eureka"s clothes.
Knowing that no words could ease their pain right now, Eureka could only continue comforting her by tapping her back. Feena still stood there with her head down, but shoulders shaking.
Not long after, she saw the guys coming. Mamoru"s face was completely dejected, Hideyos.h.i.+"s face couldn"t be explained and Raven"s face are still emotionless.
Another time pa.s.sed before Karen calmed down and let her go, she then handed her a handkerchief.
"Did you know? Is that why you asked to speak with her?" Feena asked as they stood there just in front of the tower.
"I did," Eureka replied.
"Why didn"t you tell us?" Karen couldn"t help but to feel betrayed.
"It"s not my position to tell you," Eureka replied.
"Even though, you should have told us. Then maybe, maybe it wouldn"t hurt this much. We accepted the thing about her bringing us with her, but to actually find out that she left us to die, we just can"t accept that," Karen replied with a hint of irritation.
"Will it really hurt less?" Eureka replied without any emotion.
Seeing this Feena couldn"t help but snap back, "WHAT IF I TELL YOU IT WILL? WHAT IF I TELL YOU IT"LL HURT LESS IF WE FIND OUT SOONER, OR IF YOU EVEN HAVE THE SLIGHTEST CONCERN FOR US AND TELL US!! Coming here is the wrong choice, let"s go Karen. It"s obvious whose side she is, and that is not us."
Feena turned and marched away, Karen followed suit. Hideyos.h.i.+ looked at Eureka without any emotion before following them. The only ones left are Eureka, Mamoru and Raven.
"Why does this scene feels like de javu?" Eureka said as they watch their retreating backs.
"Eureka," Mamoru seriously started.
"Do you think they"ll be fine after this?" seeing their hurt looks, Mamoru couldn"t help but ask. This is a big issue after all.
Azusa indeed tried to make them disappear but she was planning to go with them, yet what she did before that was different, she left them to die.
"*sighs* It seems that you yourself have his feelings in turmoil. The girl you love did something unforgivable to the friends you cherished," Eureka replied facing him directly.
"Wh I-" Mamoru became fl.u.s.tered.
"You"re att.i.tude when Azusa reconciled with the other two is different when she was still distancing herself from them. Oh and adding to that, you were always distracted whenever she"s around," Eureka added.
"What att.i.tude?" Mamoru asked.
"I don"t know, you should know better, it"s your feelings after all."
Seeing how Raven is not reacting, Mamoru knows he has no escape to this.
"Then do you think they"ll be fine?" he asked once again.
"That depends, will they forget all the bonds they had. Or will they find it in their hearts to forgive her and give her one final chance. The answer lies within them Mamoru, no one else could decide for them," she replied before she herself started walking away from where they were.
And as if remembering something she turned around and, "No one can decide your life other than yourself."
"Eureka still have no care towards us doesn"t she? And why does it feel like her last words are too deep?" Mamoru couldn"t help but ask Raven.
"Let"s go find the others," Raven instead replied.
Soon they found them by the lake where they usually paratice.
"Are you mad at Eureka?" Raven asked straight away.
"What if we are? Are you going to reprimanf us again?" Feena asked getting tired of Raven reprimanding them because of Eureka.
"The shouldn"t you get mad at me as well?" instead he asked.
The four of them were baffled.
"I know it as well, my father told me," seeing their looks he replied.
"Yours is different, coming from the headknight, he must have told you that it is a secret," Hideyos.h.i.+ replied.
"No he didn"t, he just told me it is my choice wether I should tell you or not," Raven replied.
"Even so, you"re different from her. We"ve known you longer. We know your choice are for our best interest," Karen replied.
"See now," Raven said seriously.
Everyone looked at him.
"You kept saying you want to be her friend, but you never trusted her words. A little mishap and your mad at her. Tell me when did you see her with Azusa after Azusa was released? When did she saw you together?"
The two girls shook their heads.
"Then the first time would be in her cell," Raven continued. "What did she first do when we were all leaving?"
Reaching this point they realized their mistake. Eureka indeed saw them all together the first time when she was imprisoned. But befire they left she talked to Azusa.
"Noticing Azusa"s uneasiness, she must have told her to tell you guys," Raven then added.
He then faced Mamoru, "Now tell me, does she still not care for this group?"
Everyone fell into deep thought.
"Your emotions are in chaos, that"s why your judgement were clouded, I just want to clear everything up," Raven ended and this time he"s the one who walked away, leaving them to think for themselves.
The day ended with each of their feelings in turmoil.
*****
"Good morning," a sad voice greeted Eureka as she stand by the lake.
"You"re here," she replied not facing her.
"I did what you told me, the guilt is indeed gone but this time it"s even more heart breaking," Azusa said as she stood beside her.
"How long did they try to reconcile with you?" Eureka asked.
"If it"s about ten years ago, I don"t know maybe five years? or maybe the whole tenyears, they still approached me whenever they get the chance," Azusa replied remembering the other two.
"Then you have more than enough time to ask for their forgiveness and prove yourself to them."
Listening to her Azusa understood what she meant, Feena and Karen didn"t give up on her. Then she too won"t give up on them.
"Thank you, Eureka," she replied before leaving.
Not long after,
she couldn"t help but ask herself when she felt them approaching.
"Eureka," Karen started.
