Chapter 4

"Um, guys? I just thought of something," Yamato said as the group was packing supplies for their journey. Gray sighed.

"What is it, Yamato? We have to hurry up and get going," the blonde boy said, wanting to save Allison as soon as possible.

"What if the NSA catch us and try to b-dabattle us?" the younger boy asked.

"Train so you're prepared, duh," they heard a voice say from the door.

"Granted, the only members are Enjyu, Biarce, Cain, & Joshua, but they have several subordinates," another voice, which sounded younger than the first, said.

"Wen, Li, what are you doing here?" Terry said. It was good to see the two again.

"We figured we'd tag along! Allison's our friend too," Wen said, smiling with a thumbs up. Gray smiled back.

"Thanks guys, and your right, we should all train. We'll train today, and set out to rescue Allison first thing in the morning," he said.

"Aren't you worried about her though, Gray?" Liena asked.

"Yeah, but I know she'll be fine," Gray replied. 'I just hope that creep Cain doesn't do anything to her,' he couldn't help think while fisting his hand.

Back at the hideout, Allison remained where she had been since waking up. "I wish I had Wind Rush Zephyr with me," she mumbled.

"Wind Rush Zephyr? Is that your b-daman?" Cain's voice came from the doorway.

"Yes. Gray made it for me," Allison replied, looking up at her visitor.

"Oh, I see," he replied, secretly annoyed that Gray had hand made it for her.

"He worked day and night making it for me. I've always kept it at my side," she said, looking back at the floor.

"If it means that much to you, I could have Joshua go and get it for you," Cain said, smiling a little. Allison could have sworn she saw a hint of the old Cain in that smile.

"You'd do that for me?" she said, perking up a little.

"Anything for you, princess," the red/yellow haired boy said, smiling again before kissing her and leaving.

'I do kind of wish he'd stop calling me that…' the brown haired girl thought before laying down and drifting off into a nap.

"Joshua, I need you to do another favor for me," Cain said.

"Yes sir?" Joshua replied, wondering what Cain could possibly want now that Allison was here.

"I need you to go back to Yamato's house and get Allison's b-daman. She misses it," the younger boy said.

"Alright," the green haired boy replied turning to leave.

"Oh, and Joshua? Don't get caught," Cain said before leaving.

"I understand," Joshua replied before heading out.

Enjyu saw Joshua as he headed out. 'Strange, where in the b-daworld could he be going this time?'

"B-Dafire!" Gray shouted as he fired several b-daballs from Chrome Raven.

"I don't think so!" Wen said, deflecting Gray's shots with his own from Bakurekuso. Everyone had been paired off to practice by Mie and Gray had been paired with the Yong Fa brothers, though technically he was only fighting Wen since he and Li had combined their b-daman into one. It wasn't long before Gray was victorious.

"Not bad, Gray! I think you'll be able to beat any Neo Shadow punk!" Wen said, grinning.

"You too! At several points during our battle, I thought you were going to beat me," Gray replied, laughing a little.

In the bushes, Joshua was spying. "Good, they're all occupied. I better do this quickly," he said to himself before climbing in the window. He saw the green & silver b-daman, which looked practically like Gray's original Chrome Zephyr, sitting on the table next to the bed Allison had been in. Figuring that this was the girl's b-daman, he quickly grabbed it and left.

"I'll be right back, guys!" Gray called before heading to the girls' room. He figured he'd go get Wind Rush Zephyr and take it with him so he could give it to Allison when he found her, but when he reached the room, the b-daman was gone!

"Gray, what're you doing?" Joe asked, having come into the house to wash up because he was going to help Liena and Mie with cooking dinner, and found the younger boy searching all over the over the room as if looking for something.

"Joe, Allison's b-daman is missing! It was here this morning, I saw it!" Gray replied, panicking a bit.

"Say what?! A b-daman can't just get up and walk off on its own!" the older boy said.

"I just hope it's ok, along with Allison," the blonde boy said.

"Don't worry, we'll rescue her," Joe said, giving Gray some hope.

It was dusk when Joshua made it back, and Cain was waiting. "I got it just like you asked," he said, handing the younger boy the green/silver b-daman.

"Thank you, Joshua," Cain replied, smiling a bit.
