Not long after, Rin's teacher's ears flicked, this was a indication that he sensed danger to himself or his loved ones in the future. This set him off.

'Its.. its Rin.' Tears welled up in his eyes and his loving wife was concerned for him and asked "What's wrong Marcus? You only have that ear thing happen when something bad happens..' She was obviously worried and was shaking.

"It's.. a great friend of mine that I promised something.. I may need to go." Marcus looked back in her eyes with deep sadness in his eyes.

(Robotic Voice: "Friend "SandLover69" Has reached level 1000! Congratulations!")

Marcus looked and said "I see.. I suppose it is time.." This worried his wife greatly.

"Time? Don't be silly! You can't just keep doing this Mark! You're going to get seriously hurt one of these times!" His wife began to cry as she begged him to stay.

Marcus slowly got out of bed and said "These kids.. need me. I became a teacher for reasons like this. It's about time I show him my sand collection.."

Marcus then exited the house while his wife screamed and begged him to stay, but he already began to leave.

Marcus went around town in his motorcycle, he was still in his pajamas which had small pictures of Rin on them. He went to all of his friends and family saying goodbye, then he left to the ocean to say goodbye to his one and only pet that he'd die for. His pet Sea Turtle, his name was Fluffy.

He picked up a backpack on the way there, he had a gift for his pet. He arrived to the beach and opened his bag and smiled as he looked inside.

'I'm sure he'll love it.. at least I hope so. I haven't seen him in a while.. I hope he's well!'

Marcus walked towards the place his Pet would go every single day and soon a rock appeared in his sight, Mark felt something.. he felt fear. He walked slowly until he collapsed on his knees. It wasn't a rock, it was Fluffy's shell.

"No.. who.. Who killed you? I see. There is nothing left for me after all, I guess I am pretty old anyway. Rin, you are now my last living best friend, I'll save you soon. Firstly.. I have to complete my promise with my friend."

Marcus brought out a paint set and a beach hat from his bag. He found his Pet's body and placed the hat on the Sea Turtle's head. On closer look the Sea Turtle died with a smile, content with the life it had lived. Marcus began to cry.

Marcus took out the paint set as he cried, he then sobbed as he painted the Sea Turtle's shell, something he promised to do each time he met with the Turtle.

"Why?! Why must I live like this!" Marcus screamed out as he painted, night soon came and he exited the beach with a clenched fist. He was ready to prepare for Rin's escape..
