Leo scratched his head and said, "Not really. I never asked where he lived. I'm still getting used to moving around this city since I moved here. But he said he lived here with his Grandpa, if that helps."

"Well, not much, but at least I know he's alive. Maybe I'll get lucky and run into him one of these days," Harley said.

Leo then said, "Well that's great. You're little brother's alive and well then!" Something else then clicked in his mind as he said, "So... Is that the reason you had been so harsh on yourself earlier? Because someone stole your little brother from you?"

"I shouldn't have even taken him out of the house. I wasn't supposed to," Harley said. "But I was bored and wanted fresh air. It was so selfish of me to take him out of safety, selfish and irresponsible. I don't care what anyone says. It was all my fault."

Leo now had a good understanding of what Harley was talking about. He then said, "You didn't know that would happen Harley. It was a mistake that you could never have seen coming. But that doesn't make you less of a person. It could have happened to anyone. But you were unfortunate enough to be their victim."

"I wasn't the victim," Harley said. "Sam was. I should have been more responsible. The fact is I can't be responsible for anything, or take care of anyone."

Leo then said, "Now that can't be true. You've taken good care of Kora since she hatched. And we've both helped plenty of digimon in the digital world. If anything, you're one of the most responsible girls I know." He put his hand on her shoulder to try and comfort her. He then said, "Was there really anything you could have done once those dark people had laid eyes on you? Even if you had resisted to your fullest, the same thing probably would have happened."

"I can't help it. It just feels like its all my fault. I should have tried harder to save him, but I froze up like a coward instead," Harley said.

Leo then said, "Would it have helped if they had decided to kill you just to take him? I doubt there was much you could have done Harley. And now you have a chance to find him again. You just need to take some time to look around and find him."

"Yeah, I will," Harley said. She still looked rather down.

Leo then said, "Hey, You shouldn't dwell on that bad memory. You should focus on what you'll say when you finally are reunited with your long lost brother. And what about your family? Won't they be happy to know that he's alive and healthy?"

"Yeah, that's true," Harley said, smiling a bit.
Suddenly Kora landed on her head and looked down. "I'm hungry."

Argo then came over to them a bit winded as he said, "She is one fast little bird."
Leo smirked and said, "I guess you guys had a good time then."

"Yeah," said Kora. "But now I need some food. Like candy, or cookies, or cake, or-"
"Or something healthy," Harley said, pulling out a health bar and feed it to Kora.
"Aww. But OK." Kora then ate it rather quickly.
