Yuki nodded and ran back to the Café waving at Ellie as he ran. Ellie would wave back to Yuki. Ellie would turn and walk down the street. 25 minutes later Yuki and Kaki would return to their dorm. Kaki would sit on the couch and turn on the Tv. He would be flipping through channels until he got to the news station. Yuki would be in his closet putting pajama pants on and a white t-shirt. Suddenly a glass cup would shatter out in the dorm. Yuki would run out of the closet and look at Kaki,
"Kaki is-" Yuki would look at the tv shocked.
"Ellie Thompson, age 15 found dead behind Shimura international School… Cause of death: Suicide." The newscaster on the tv said.
"Was this murder or just a terrible tragedy… The authorities say that she had no guardians or relatives, that the girl lived on her own." the newscaster continued. Yuki and Kaki would look at the TV in shock. Yuki's would be shaking all over. Yuki would run over to his closet and grab a coat and sweater. Yuki would put on his tennis shoes and would open the door of their dorm and run out. Yuki would be running down the hall as he zipped his coat. He would be running down the hall when suddenly he would run into Callie. Yuki would move out of the way and keep running. Callie would turn and look at Yuki run out of the building. Yuki would run over to the school and would see an ambulance leaving. The ambulance would start up and start hovering.
"WAIT!!" Yuki shouted. The Ambulance would start lifting up in the air.
"I-I CAN SAVE HER!!" Yuki yelled. Yuki would then start floating in the air when he would suddenly get thrown to the ground.
"NO BOY!" The old man shouted. The old man's figure would be made out of the snowflakes falling from the sky.
"You mustn't use those powers in the public eye!" The old man said. Yuki would have an angry look.
"I DON'T CARE ABOUT COSMIC LAWS RIGHT NOW OLD MAN!! I NEED TO SAVE MY FRIEND!!" Yuki screamed. The old man would look at Yuki. Yuki would fall to his knees. Yuki would start slamming the ground with his fists.

"IT'S MY FAULT!! I-I COULD HAVE SAVED HER!!" Yuki screamed. Yuki would start sobbing as he would start hitting the ground softer. The snowflakes would be falling on Yuki's back.
"SHE SAID SHE WOULD MEET US AT LUNCH TOMORROW, S-SHE PROMISED!!" Yuki shouted. Nakamura and Kaki would walk over to Yuki. They would help Yuki up and they would all hug.
"S-She promised…" Yuki muttered. Tears would be falling down the three kids' eyes. Yuki would think back to all the fun they had at the Café and he would start crying even harder. Suddenly a man in a puffer coat and sweatpants would run over to the group with a security guard next to him.
"Yuki!?" The man said. Yuki would let go of the hug and look at the man. It would be his dad Akuno Homura.
"Your mother and I are very worried about you, how about you come home tonight… School's canceled for the next few days…" Akuno said. Yuki would wipe his tears and nod.
"I'll go get some stuff…" Yuki said. Yuki, Nakamura, and Kaki would walk back to the dormitory. The three teenagers would walk back into the building. "Are we sure she doesn't have any living family?" Akuno asked. The security guard shook his head,
"All the paperwork was filled out by a woman at some orphanage." The security guard said. Akuno would look at the guard confused.
"How did she pay for food?" Akuno asked. The security guard look down and frowned.
"She worked three jobs back to back to back…" The security guard continued. Akuno would be shocked. Akuno would sigh and then pull out a futuristic phone. He would press a few buttons, and a flying car would then hover over next to Akuno and he would get in. The car looked like a red Ferrari F40 with hover wheels on the bottom and small boosters on the back. 5 minutes later Yuki would open the front trunk of the car and put a duffel bag in, Yuki would close it and Akuno would lock it from inside the car. Yuki would open the door to the passenger seat and hop in. Yuki would close the door and Akuno would then start driving. Akuno would press a button on the car and Akuno would take his hands off the wheel.
"Why not have a driver if you were just gonna put it on Auto-Pilot?" Yuki asked. Akuno would put his hand on Yuki's head and shake it a little bit.
"Because personal drivers are annoying," Akuno said. Yuki chuckled,
"Y-Yeah… I guess…" Yuki said. Akuno would look at Yuki and smile. Yuki would look out the window next to him. He would see downtown Neo-Tokyo. Yuki would look at all the skyscrapers and holographic billboards. Yuki would rest his head on the window and would look at the snow falling from the sky. He would think about the Café and all the fun the kids were having. Yuki would put his hands in his pockets. He would feel a small folded piece of paper.
"What the… This wasn't here before…" Yuki thought. Akuno would look at Yuki confused.
"We should be quiet when we get home… Your mom is probably fast asleep…" Akuno said.
