Okay, now to the story…

Kai slowly opened his eyes. His sight was blurred at first but he tried to blink it off. He tried to lift his hand, so he can rub his eyes. But the Dranzer wielder couldn't lift his hand. His mind was now alerted. He tried to look at what is holding him.

Now, the dual hair can see that his arms, and legs were strapped to a metal bed. Kai tried his hardest to break free. But he can't do anything. Then he looked around to see the place. 'This is not the place where I was. But this place is familiar.' He thought.

Then he tried to remember what it looks like, but most of the place was covered by darkness. Kai muttered under his breath, "What sort of place is this?" A voice echoed, "A place which you used to fear."

The Dranzer wielder's eyes opened wide in shock. But even more in fear. He thought, "This can't be true…" The shape quietly moved through the darkness, before stopping near Kai. Kai recognized the person. "How can you be here? You are…" The dual hair started but was interrupted.

"How can I leave my grandson alone? After all, I have to teach him some lessons." Voltaire smirked. Kai's breathing became heavy. He still can't believe how he feared his grandfather. Voltaire noticed the fear in those amenthyst eyes. He just spoke, "Don't be afraid now. I have something to show."

He pressed something on the wall and then, a glass window got into view, as he had probably switched on a light. Voltaire pointed at the window and slowly said, "Look there, Grandson. There is something, you'd love to see." Now, the Dranzer wielder looked bewildered, 'I'd love to see? No. There's something wrong."

But his metal bed was roughly turned around. So he had to see that 'thing'. Kai's breathing hitched. There on the other side of the glass window, he saw, "Tyson?" Kai questioned unable to believe his eyes.

"Exactly, my grandson. You dear friend." Voltaire said, saying the word 'friend' with such venom. Kai noted that that the navy-blue haired male was unconscious. Kai snarled at his grandfather, "What did you do to him?"

Voltaire smiled as he patted Kai's hair, as the Dranzer wielder tried to move his head away from his touch. "Still nothing. But something sure will happen soon if…." The dual-hair knew what his grandfather is hinting, "I won't accomplish any of your stupid tasks!" Kai just yelled at Voltaire.

Voltaire smirked evilly and turned Kai's to look at the glass window. The evil grandfather snapped his fingers. At the sign of that, a man completely covered in black clothes appeared behind Tyson.

And the navy-blue haired blader looked like he was put to sleep, so he didn't notice it. Voltaire whispered in Kai's ears, "Now, you're about to see what will happen if you disobey me, Grandson." He nodded at the black figure.

The black figure in response took a knife and placed it on Tyson's neck. The Dranzer wielder's eyes widened in shock. He whispered, "You can't do this…" His grandfather evilly said into his ear, "Oh, yes. I can…"

And then he again nodded. This time, Kai saw the knife which was brought down on his best friend. He couldn't control himself. He yelled, "No! Tyson!"

He sat up sweating, and heavily breathing. He frantically looked at the surroundings. He was in his bed-room. The Dual-haired blader sighed in relief. "This was all a nightmare." He said to himself. And his alarm clock is the one which woke him up.

He got out of his bed and walked to the mirror. "Why is Voltaire torturing me, even in my dreams? Why can't he leave me alone, even after he left this world?" He mumbled to himself as he walked.

He then looked at the mirror to find himself staring back with red eyes. His red eyes were now not covered by contacts and he was a bit irritated to find some blue hairs in between his dyed black and gray hairs. "This is not good." He said to himself. Kai hated his blue hairs. But he had a reason for that.

His grandfather, who left the earth just a couple of years ago, had once told him that it was a sign. Kai remembered that voice in his head, 'That blue hair and red eyes is something to show the world that you are living proof of the Bio-Volt's experiments on humans and how it increases their potential.'

The Dual hair just scowled at that memory. He hated to be called a 'lab rat'. That's why he dyed his hair in the first place. To push back those memories to the back of his mind. But dye can't last forever. So, the memories haunted him every now and then.

After sometime, Kai is now opening the door of his Ferrari. He was now wearing a long coat with high collars which covers most of his face. He also has a pair of sunglasses which hides his amenthyst eyes. He just revved up the engine and started his journey.

He just wants to help his friends now. And then he can reveal himself to them. 'If they ever want to see me again after I abandoned them.' He thought to himself. Though his eyes were focused on the road in front, his mind began to walk down his memory lane. And it stopped at the memory which haunted him.

Flash back

Kai came back to his home. His mother and father patted him on his head before saying good bye. The Dranzer wielder was in a happy mood to notice the sad glances of his parents.

Kai was happy because, he and his friends 'The Bladebreakers' which included Hilary, Max, Ray, and Tyson won the world championship. So, they were officially the world's top bladers. He was grateful that the World Championships coincided with his vacation. Otherwise, he wouldn't have got permission.

'That was great! Isn't it, Dranzer?" The young dual-hair blader asked his bey. Dranzer slightly glowed to say that "It was Great!" Kai understood what Dranzer was saying. But as he put his bey in his pocket and turned back, he was greeted by his grandfather towering over him.

Voltaire asked calmly, "What were you doing in your vacation, Young Kai?" Kai's heart was beating in his throat. Kai thought, 'Grandfather might know something, otherwise he'll not be this calm.' The dual-haired kid started to stutter, "I, I-I was…well…"

Voltaire now had an evil smirk etched on his face, "Too bad, you don't know how to lie to me, Grandson." Kai noticed the look on his face and started to sweat. Voltaire continued, "I know, what you've been doing. Playing a kid's game."

Kai had an urge to yell at his grandfather that, 'It was not a kid's game!' But he knew better than to do something like that. His grandfather continued, "But I don't want to say anything about it, since you've won those pathetic kids. But…"

Kai knew that those who battled him are not pathetic. He knew them as great bladers, who had a strong connection to their beys like him and Dranzer. Voltaire continued, "You are close to those Bladebreakers. Aren't you?" He looked at Kai for a response.

Kai was shocked to know that Voltaire knows about this. Voltaire noticed it in his eyes. "Very well then, Grandson. I know you are close to those brats. And how many times have I told you that everyone tries to use us. And that we should never trust anyone."

Kai murmured, "But trust is something which can only be earned not given…" Unfortunately for him, Voltaire heard that. He glared at his grandson before lifting him by his neck. Kai started to struggle, he found it hard to breath. He pleaded, "Grandpa, please…Let me go…"

Still Voltaire held his glare, "You are pathetic, just like your friends. But they are not your friends anymore. If you still want to trust them and be with them, they'll have the worst death right in front of your eyes. Got it?" He hissed.

Kai was scared. He didn't want his friends to die. Not because of him. "Yes, Grandfather." He managed to squeak. Voltaire left his neck, as the child hit the ground hard. But the ground doesn't pain Kai. The words of his grandfather did.

He whispered to himself with tears threatening to spill, "Sorry, friends. This has to be done." Voltaire didn't notice this as he was talking to someone with a red-eyed mask. He turned to address his grandson who now wiped his tears.

"You will be under his super vision and training, Grandson. He is Boris Balkov, my most trusted companion. You will not go to vacations, so erase those 'friends' from your memories all together. And don't disappoint me again." Voltaire ordered. Kai just nodded. He couldn't do any other thing.

Flash back end

Kai blinked back few tears which tried to escape. He was still hurt, that he couldn't help his friends. The dual-haired blader thought, 'I would make it up to you, guys! I give you my word.'

He just parked his car in a secluded place. He got out and locked the car and walked towards his destination. He doesn't want to be recognized, by anyone. So, he had to walk. When he reached the place and thought, 'Hope this can make amends.' He then walked into that building.

This chapter is now finished. And again sorry for updating it late.

And a question, Where did Kai went? I know it's quite simple. But just guess it.

Anyway, how was this chapter? Good? Bad?

Anything I am open to reviews.

Till then bye_Devi
