"I wouldn't have brought it up if I wasn't..." Leo said yawning as he started to rub his eyes so that he wouldn't fall asleep.

Luke gave Leo a somewhat odd look but still believed him. Helen looked at Leo and Luke then at Raikov. "Well, we all fought a tough opponent today...but I'm afraid we have not attained victory yet. I fear Tiserias is still alive and dangerous." said Mew Snow sitting down on her old bed.

"Of course he's still alive. If he wasn't then this Mark might have dissipated by now..." He said as he looked at his hand, feeling the darkness of Tiserias's heart still beating.

"Tiserias was once my greatest friend and most trusted teacher. To see him as a monster trying to destroy everything is....." started Helen. Tears formed in her eyes.

Leo sighed as he walked over to her and sat down next to her. "Hey I know it must be tough to see someone you once admired with all your heart turn into something like that, but there is always light... even in the blackest of darkness's. Either way, just try to get some rest for now... you earned it." He said smiling as he could never bare to see a girl cry, it was one of his weaknesses.

"Overwhelming darkness is still out there after us. I'm afraid...I'm afraid for Leo, I'm afraid for Luke...I'm afraid for all of us..." continued Mew Snow about to fall to the ground crying.

Leo not really knowing what to do placed Mew Snow's head on his shoulder and let her cry. "Don't worry about everything all at once, things will work out okay..." He said in a kind and gentle voice.

"I have no where to go now...I stay here, for it is a home of the dead. I cannot return to the Mew Mews because I have been marked as a 'Mew Outcast' by Ryou himself. I cannot return to my uncle, for I fear he's dead. I cannot return to my mother..." Mew Snow continued naming her sorrows.

"I guess it can't be helped, looks like you'll be staying with me." He said softly, even though he was serious the whole time.

Raikov gave Leo a cold stare when he heard Leo say such a thing. Luke meanwhile was sorrowful, "I have nowhere to go either...I could cross the Pacific and hopefully reach home, but what are the chances of that happening?"
It was true: Luke Arrius was no longer a slave to Ithatae, Helen Iras was no longer a student of the once glorious Tiserias, and Raikov...had matters of his own to attend to.

"Alright, since you all have somewhere to go... I'll be taking you there first thing when I wake up tomorrow..." He said still yawning, knowing he would be just as tired after he took them where they wanted to go.

"Huh? What do you mean? We have nowhere to go!" said irate Luke.

"Okay, you want to go home. You want to go to Tokyo, and you just want to be around Snow so I'll take you anywhere you ask." He said smiling as he point at Luke first, then Helen, and finally Raikov.

"Wait, you can't take me home, I wont'....." started Luke. He paused as if ashamed to continue. "I know I can't return to the Mew Mews after being marked as an 'outcast' by an administrator there." said Helen looking at a picture of herself when she was 13 in front of Cafe Mew Mew.

"Fine then, I'm going to sleep... wake me up when you come to a decision." He said as he fell onto the floor and tried to go to sleep.

"Raikov, Luke, come with me. Let us go to the archives here and see what's left..." said the now drowsy Helen Iras. She and the others travelled to the archives. She explained a lot of things about herself and her situation to Raikov and Luke.
Dusk passed and nightfall was upon them. Everyone went to bed. Helen drug Leo into a different room and put him on a bed then went to sleep herself.
Dawn came...

Leo woke up in a bed and just yawned while stretching his muscles. "I must have fallen asleep..." He said as he got out of bed and started walking around.

No one else even stirred.
They had all slept amongst the dead.

"Well, might as well wake everyone up..." Leo said as he teleported outside everyone's rooms and knocked on each of their doors to wake them up.

Everyone awoke slowly yet surely. Both Luke and Helen had had nightmares overnight.

"Alright guys hurry up, we need to go..." He said as he knew that this place wasn't the safest right now.

"I don't know where to go though..." said Luke. Helen and Raikov were in silent agreement.

"Well we can't stay here, because we would risk another attack by that Tiserias..." He said as he looked at their clueless faces. "I guess we're going back to my place then..." Leo said as he put a grouped them all together and teleported away before they could argue.

Before anyone could blink, everyone was back at Leo's place. Helen then turned upon Leo irate (which was highly unusual for her), "Hey! I wasn't done back at the island! I wanted to pay honors to my deceased comrades and finish scavenging the archives!"

"Fine...." He said as he teleported Helen and himself back to the academy. "But the longer we stay the greater the danger it is to you..." Leo warned as he looked at her.
