-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Gaku and Ryuu were walking toward cafetaria while talked to each other about today mission. A few minutes later they saw Tenn walked ahead of them. Ryuu called him but Tenn only keep walking like he didn't hear them. That confused them, they fasten their pace to catch up with Tenn. When they manage to catch up Gaku grab Tenn shoulder and turn him around

"Just what is your—." Gaku's voice die down when he saw Tenn expression

Their Ace face was pale and look frightened with something. His body was trembling. Gaku and Ryuu really worried now. Yesterday Tenn was fine and full of energy when sparring. But now..

"Tenn, what happened?" Asked Ryuu gently while holding both of Tenn shoulder

".. kill.. him...hand..."Murmured Tenn

"Eh?"

"...kill him... my own hand..." Repeated Tenn

"What? Kill who?" Gaku surprised

"...I think we need to talk in private." Said Ryuu

Gaku nodded in understanding. Him and Ryuu now guided Tenn to their unit room for privacy. In their unit room Gaku settle Tenn down at one chair while Ryuu prepared drink for all of them. Gaku sit down silently in front of Tenn while Ryuu sitting beside Tenn after finishing their drink.

"Tenn, can you tell us now?" Began Ryuu gently

"Sorry... it just... the vision..." Said Tenn

"Did Cielo give you a vision about the battle?" Asked Gaku

Tenn nodded his head and his hand began trembling again. Ryuu seeing this rubbed Tenn back to calm him and gave him his drink. Tenn thanked him and began drinking slowly. He inhale a breath and then exhaled it to calm himself. Then he put his drink at the table and bowed his head.

"I saw it ... I killed him... I stab Riku using my sword..." Whispered Tenn

This surprised them both

"Wait Tenn, calm down okay. That might be only a dream." Said Gaku

"No, it's a vision. This morning Cielo's gem glowed..." Said Tenn while touching his earing

"So Cielo giving you a vision that you will kill your brother?" Asked Ryuu

Tenn nodded his head. Both Gaku and Ryuu don't know what to say to calm their ace. His haunted look make them grimaced, they need to do something. It's dangerous for all of them (including Riku) if Tenn distracted at today mission.

"Damn it... after finally i finish all trial. Is this mean anything i do will end up me killing Riku?" Asked Tenn to no one

Tenn hold at his cup tighten, the cup even cracked. Ryuu then put his hand a top of Tenn hand

"Tenn... it's only a vision. You can change it." Said Ryuu

"Ryuu's right Tenn. Nothing is absolute about future." Said Gaku

"But..."

'Knock' 'Knock' someone knocked their unit room door. Ryuu let them enter, then the door sliding open and Iori entered the room

"Finally found all of you. There's something i need to tell all of you." Said Iori

No one said anything that confused Iori, then he looked around the room and see the air was tense. When he glanced at Tenn and saw his pale face he thought something happened
