Was it all just a dream or maybe a vision...no it was real...I finally figured out
what the cards were saying

Hitomi gasped as she realized what she was thinking. Could it be true? She had
dreamt that this would happen for weeks after she had arrived from Gaea! Maybe she
was jumping to conclusions. But still...it was possible rite? Then Hitomi remembered
a minor detail that became a major flaw in her theory. She had given her pendant to
Van as a gift to remember her by. Unless it was possible for Van to use the pendant
to take her to Gaea. The bell rang for class to begin and Hitomi was forced to put
thoughts of Fanelia and Van aside to concentrate on math.


When class ended Hitomi raced to track practice. On the way there she ran into
someone and almost fell down before he could catch her. Hitomi tried to get away after
a quick apology but the stranger would not let her.


"Hitomi, do you do this to every nice person that keeps you from falling down
after you bumped into them?" he asked.


Finally, Hitomi looked up to see the face to whom the voice belonged. It sounded
vaguely familiar yet she didn't know who it was but then again she was so preoccupied
that she probably wouldn't have known if it was her mother there. When she saw the
boy's face she quickly recognized his light brown hair and eyes very similar to her own
and realized that he was no stranger. It was…her cousin, Yobidasu, Yobi for short,
standing there!


"Yobi, what are you doing here? Are you on vacation or something? What's
new in London?" she asked quickly


"Whoa slow down Hitomi! OK…visiting you, yea and its raining again. Does
that answer all your questions? Ok then its my turn…what's the big hurry?"


Hitomi was startled and hurriedly replied that she was late for track. Yobi
accompanied her to the track and waited for practice to end. Then it happened again.
As Hitomi began running he appeared on the track. She skidded to a halt and
collapsed in the middle of the track. All the while Yobi stood on the sidelines with a
look of disbelief on his face. Hitomi looked to his face and wondered.*Did he see him
too? Did he see Van?* Then her head fell and she had fainted.


When Hitomi awoke she was in the infirmary again but this time Amano was
not with her. Yobi sat besides her trying to wake her up. As soon as she opened her
eyes she heard him ask if she was alright. Hitomi sat up and tried to remember what
had happened when it struck her. She had seen Van again but this time he wasn't
fighting a dragon. He was holding her pendant in his hand and he had a look of
concentration on his face.


On her way home Hitomi's mind was focused on one thing. How could she get
back to Gaea without her pendant. Then Yobi interrupted her thoughts when he asked,
"Hitomi, what happened on the track?"


"What are you talking about Yobi, nothing happened"



"Don't lie to me Hitomi, I saw someone appear out of no where, right in the
middle of the track, and I know you did too. That's why you stopped isn't it?"


Hitomi bit her lip and thought Should I tell him? Maybe he's different. I mean
after all he apparently did see Van too. Even if I did how would it help?* But after
struggling with the decision she replied, "It was nothing, really, I just thought I saw
someone I knew."


Yobi didn't believe her at all. Then he remembered his talk with Hitomi's mother.
She said Hitomi was sick and disappeared for a while two years ago, then when she
came back she didn't have her half of the pendant with her. Maybe that has something
to do with it. Maybe she had to sell it to someone and now they're back for more. The
pendant has to be valuable. After all that's probably why our grandmother gave each
of us one*


"Hey Hitomi, can I ask you something?"


"Sure."


"What happened to your half of the pendant?"


"My half of the pendant? What are you talking about Yobi? The pendant
grandma gave us? Do you mean there are two halves to it? Who has the other?"
Hitomi questioned.


Yobi became very unnerved. Hitomi's eyes had become bright and excited. There
was definitely something she didn't want to tell him. "Of course there are two halves.
Grandma gave each of us one and I have mine. Do you have yours?"


Hitomi grew quiet and began to think again. If he is the one with the other half
he probably won't let me have it. He probably thinks I sold mine. But his pendant
could possibly be the only way for me to get back to Gaea. That means I'll have to tell
him*


Yobi took a sideward glance of Hitomi to see how she had reacted to his
question. To his surprise he couldn't see a trace of guilt that he was sure would have
been there if she had sold it.


Hitomi looked at Yobi, took a deep breath and began what she had to say,
"Yobi, …"
