Chapter 10

Hilary sat on the floor with her back to the door, traces of fallen tears on her face

Why would Tyson do that?

Fresh tears formed in her eyes as the memory came rushing back

Flash back

"Where's Tyson?" asked max

"Whatdumean?" came a choked reply form Kenny

"Wasn't it ur turn to take care of him?" ray asked him

"My turn? No I thought it was kai's—"

Max stopped short as realization dawned on him

Tyson had slept alone

"Oh shit…"

The whole team got up and ran as fast as they possibly could towards Tyson's room

Hoping, against hope, that he was okay

Ray got to the door first he wrenched it open and followed Hilary inside

"Tyson..."

Tyson was standing near the open window

"Tyson are you okay?" max asked

For a second nothing happened and then, slowly, Tyson turned around

"Hello guys" he said in a hollow voice

His sight shocked them

He was pale, so pale that he seemed to be almost a ghost

His eyes were wide open as he stared at them

"Tyson..." Hilary's words got stuck in her throat

It was as though Tyson had seen her for the first time

"You--"he croaked "you... you..." he pointed a finger at her as he spoke

"Please" his eyes traveled to the rest of the bladebrakers

"Please save me" he whispered as if begging them

"Tyson what are you talking--" Hilary came towards him but stopped as he gave a loud cry

"Stay away... you're. Dead... dead"

"Stay away"

He whispered he moved away from them towards the open window

"Stay away"

Tyson seemed to be failing his eyes rolled into his head as he lost consciousness

"TYSON!" Hilary screamed as he started to topple

But before she could move kai leapt forward and caught him by the hand before he fell and dragged him to safety

"No"

So close to falling, so desperately close to falling

She couldn't lose him

She ran as fast as she could away from the scene Tyson's cold words echoing in her ears

Words, she thought, that would haunt her forever

Flashback

What was wrong with Tyson? She couldn't possibly understand

She stayed in her room

She couldn't remember any sounds nor could she remember how many hours had passed.

She sat in a daze until somebody knocked at her door.

"Hilary?"

Slowly Hilary blinked away her tears and got up

Her knees hurt from sitting in the same position for hours

"Hilary?" the voice called out to her softly "its me, please open the door"

Hilary sighed then opened the door a little

She came face to face with Tyson.

He stood with his head bowed

"Um.." he started "the guys told me about... about well I'm sorry, I didn't remember any of the things I said"

He paused then looked up into her eyes

"Id never say that to anyone, especially not you"

Hilary felt something wet on her cheeks and realized that she was crying again

Tyson touched her cheek softly before he wiped her tears

"I cant see you hurt I'm sorry

"I know I'm an idiot and I always love to bug you but this time--" Tyson stopped as Hilary threw her arms around him and started to cry again

"Tyson...you..."

"Its okay" Tyson whispered to her

As he held her he felt a single tear escape his eye as well.

Everybody except Tyson sat in ray's room where a meeting was underway

"What about a doctor?"

"I took him to the doctor he was the one who recommended the trip in the first place" said Hilary throwing a nervous glance at the door to her right Tyson's door where he was lying down currently.

"Then..?"

"I don't know his condition has worsened since we came here..." said Kenny

"Maybe this whole trip was a waste of time" sighed max

"I agree with max" said ray "maybe its about time we went home"

There was a pause when everybody processed the information before they came up with a common solution

It was indeed time to head back.

Across the door Tyson had heard every word of the conversation

And what did he have to say about it was nothing

He knew that if nothing improved he would surely die

Then maybe he should return he thought maybe it was for the best

That night Tyson tossed and turned his mind filled with an uneasy dream

His forehead was drenched with sweat his throat was raw

Gaping for breath he gained consciousness.

Tyson shivered slightly he sat in his bed his mind extremely clear

Assessing what he has just seen he leapt off his bed and stumbling he reached a desk that sat in the corner

Shuffling through the maps and guides on it he finally found what he was looking for

Gazing at it for a few seconds told him what was to be done

He would have his answers soon.
