Chapter 2
 


Cye slowly woke up and looked up at an unfamilare celing.
    "Where am I?" He asked himself. He slowly sat up looking around him. On one side were four beds, on the other was a large window. The walls that surronded him seemed to be made of metal. Seveal machines were sitting around the room. Cye slid out of the bed and walked over to the huge window. Outside was an increadible veiw. Nothing but a forest lay beyound the walls and a sun that was setting in the distace. He figured that he must be in somesort of castel or at least a really big buildeing. He looked to the side and from what he guessed is the front of the castel stood a figure of a lion with wings. Cye heard a low hiss from behind him and spun around. In the door way was a woman with long blond hair in a pink gown. Cye relized he was just in his boxers and blushed a bright red.
    "I see your up. That is good. Your friends were worried about you." She laughed walking up to him. Cye backed away heading for the bed and grabbed the sheets to cover up with.
    "W..where am I?" Cye asked once he was sure he was covered up.
    "You're in the castel of Lions on Planet Arius. I am Princess Alura." Alura laughed as he struggled to stay covered up. "How is your head? You hit it pretty hard." Cye put his hand to his head to discove a bandage.
    "What happend?" He asked looking around, "You said my friends were worried... Where are they?"
    "To answer your first question we don't know what happend. Some kind of freak accident perhaps. Your friends are resting elsewhere."
    'I don't feel them... they aren't here' Cye thought franticly, "Your lieing! Where are they!!"
    "Please settle down. Your just confused." Alura tried walking near him. Cye looked around him. He found a small knife on one of the trays that were around the room and picked it up.
    "No, Stay away!!!" Cye yelled tears in his eyes, 'what is going on. Where is my armor, I can't feel it, I can't feel the guys.'
    "Please, I'm telling the truth. Y..your friends said you were the warrior of Trust. You must trust me. They do." Alura said tring to inch closer but failed as Cye waved the knife at her. Cye looked at her franticly
    'I..I can't tell... Why can't I tell If I can trust her or not?? What is wrong with me. Something is missing..my armor and my friends... where are they?' Cye thought franticly. The door behind Alura slid open.
    "Princess.. How is...." Kento started as he entered the room and saw what was going on.
    "K..Kento?" Cye asked nervesly.
    "Cye? What's wrong?" Kento asked looking to Alura
    "I don't know. He won't listen to me. Please try." Alura said as she backed away some.
    "Cye, Buddy! Come on." Kento said walking up to him.
    "Stay back!" Cye yelled waving the knife at Kento.
    "Cye? Cye, it's me Kento." Kento said shocked at how he was acting.
    "B.b.but I can't feel you." Cye replied, "I don't know. What is wrong?"
    "Cye, It's me your best bud. Hey, remember when I hit on those girls we passes on the street and they all hit me?" Kento asked
    "Everybody saw that. Anyone could of known that happened." Cye said shakedly.
    "Cye, Why can't you trust me? What's wrong?" Kento asked worry in his eyes.
    "I... I don't konw." Cye stated tears spilling down his face. Cye looked into Kento's eyes. He saw his friend in them the worry. "K..Kento...." Cye whispered as the knife fell from his hand. Kento walked up to him and caught him as he fell to his knees. Cye sobed into Kento's shoulder about everything that was going through his mind. They sat there Cye had cried himself to sleep.



 
 In Toyama, Mia had taken her new guests into town to find some clothes for them.  Mia and Keith were talking as they walked down the busy street. Hunk noticed a restruant and stopped to look in the window.The others went on with out relizing that he had stopped. He desided to try some of the food out and went in and ordered.  The rest of them were walking on down the street, Pidge noticed that Hunk was missing and guessed he had gone into one of the restruants and backtrackt to try and find him. Again no one noticed he was gone. They passes an electronic store that had TV' s in the window. Sven stoped for a sec and started to watch it when the news came on. The other left without him. A couple of pretty girls walked by the now small group and Lance stoped to say hello. Mia and Keith went on with out him. It wasn't untill they had reached the mall that they realized they were the only two left.
    "Where did they go?" Keith  asked looking around
    "They must of stoped and we didn't notice." Mia repied
    "That's just great. We're the defenders of the Univers and we get lost and seperated in a City on one planet." Keith exclaimed.
    "Don't worry. I'm sure they're not far away. Let's backtrack and see if we can find them." Mia suggested. Keith agreed and they were on their way.


The guys were sitting in a large sitting room in the castle. The princess had come back not long after Kento had showed up in the room. They all sat in silence wondering what was going on. The door to the room hisses and Kento walked slowly into the room.
    "Kento? How is he?" Ryo asked standing up.
    "He's asleep now. He's scared and I don't blame him either." Kento sighed as he sat down.
    "How is he scared?" Sage asked.
    "He's lost all his sinces. He couldn't tell if he could trust me or not." Kento explained.
    "He what?!" They all exclaimed.
    "This is bad." Rowen stated, "If we can't get him to be able to trust us... "
    "I think he'll be all right now." Kento interuppted.
    "Are you sure?" Ryo asked
    "Yea, he had a lot on his mind, and the sudden feeling of nothing just scared him a little. It did the same to us too." Kento explained.
    "Ok, now something really is wrong." Sage stated.
    "How do you know that?" Alura asked.
    "Kento's making sense." Sage said.
    "HEY!" Kento yelled.


    "All right, we have to stay together this time!" Keith commanded as they all finally made it to the mall.
    "I said I was sorry." Hunk exclaimed.
    "Your just lucky Mia came when she did. You'd be washing dishes if she hadn't."Pidge piped up.
    "Aww... Shuddup" Hulk grumbled.
    "Okay that's enough you guys. Come on. We've got to get you guys some clothes. Keith, Lance, and Sven can fit into the guys clothes, but you, Hunk, and Pidge can't. So come on." Mia stated walking into the mall.
    "I hate shopping.." Hunk grumbled as they walked in.
 


    "Hey, Cye. How are ya feeling?" Kento asked as he and the others walked into his room. Cye was still in bed but he was sitting up hugging his knees.
    "Better.. I guess." Cye replied quietly. The room remaind silent with only the sounds of movement from the guys.
    "Cye, come on. You've got to get over it. We have." Sage commented.
    "You guys don't get it." Cye said quietly.
    "What don't we get?" Kento asked sitting on the end of the bed.
    "Ever since I was little I would know who to trust and who not to. But... but now I can't." Cye explained.
    "Cye, all of us had to live our lives not knowing." Ryo stated.
    "And your used to it. I'm not. I've never had to worry about whether I could trust someone or not." Cye exclaimed.
    "Cye, you were lucky to be able to do that. The rest of us had to learn the hard way. And people had to earn our trusts and vice versa." Rowen explained.
    "But I don't know how!" Cye protested.
    "It's something you've got to learn." Sage replied.
    "Maybe that's why it happened. You need to learn how to trust people so you don't rely too much on what you are already able to do." Kento suggested.
    "Kento's right. Things happen for reasons. That has to be why, Cye." Rowen agreed.
    "How do I know who to trust and who not to?" Cye asked looking up at his friends.
    "You know. That's probbly the last thing I'd ever thought I'd hear you say, but don't worry, Cye. We'll help you." Ryo said putting his hand on his shoulder.
    "Thank you guys.." Cye whispered.
    "Now, come on Cye! You've got to be hungry! It's almost time for supper!" Kento exclaimed.
    "Are you ready to leave the room?" Sage asked looking at Cye.
    "Yea, I think I'll be all right." Cye replied smiling, "I'm getting kind hungry too."
    "All right. Come one guys. Let's let him get dresses. We'll wait on you outside ok." Ryo said starting out the door. Cye nodded as he got out of bed.



    "There, now doesn't that look cute?" Mia exclaimed as Pidged stepped out of the dressing room. The others atomaticly started cracking up laughing.
    "Umm.. Mia. I'm not some little kid." Pidge spoke up lookingdown at his shirt which was decorated with something called the Power Rangers.
    "But you look so cute!" Mia said standing back and lookng.
    "Mia, I think Pidge is right. This stuff is a bit childish." Keith spoke up still laughing.
    "Oh, all right." Mia sighed, "I know a store we can go to."
    "Finally!" Pidge exclaimed stomping back into the dressing room. They left the store and continued shopping. With Mia, which proved to be a big mistake. But she had the money so there was nothing they could do. 1
