Hey! Strange title mmmhmm? Just read. And enjoy!

Sky, Tokyo, Paris

"They are working on a new system right now." Logan said quietly looking at his friends. Tala turned to look at him his eyebrows risen questioningly. "How do you know?" Logan mixed a smirk and a grin and replied: " Hacked their computer system last night."

"They were able to beat the Heavy Metal System last time they fought Tyson and his friends. Our Personality System was able to stop them but next time…" Rika trailed off.

„Next time they will shatter us!" Dennis spoke up while looking over the garden of the Granger dojo. To the Russians it had went unnoticed that Tyson was standing just around the corner listening to their conservation quietly.

Kai sighed heavily. His bangs were covering up his eyes. "Then we have to come up with a new system… Rika?" He looked up. The girl with the grey shrugged. "Yeah. Only way to take, I think. But I have not come up with an idea since now."

Maxie grunted. "Great. Here we are babysitting a group of half-grown up children which Kai actually calls his 'friends' . We will have to battle BioVolt again and have no system running on our blades that would stand a chance in battling them." Her voice had turned very sarcastic during her speech.

Logan gave her a brief smile and stated dryly. "If you want to sum things up – you're right." Rika paid less attention on the conservation. She tackled her mind with hundreds of questions searching for a way out. They had to keep everyone out of this…but this grew more and more impossible the more she thought about it.

Maybe… no…but when it was the only way… maybe she would not be pleased – on the other hand she had said that she would help out at any costs.

"I'll call Sky." Rika said. The others were now looking at her. "Can she help?" Kai asked her. Rika shrugged. "Who else?"

The others thought it over for a moment then nodded in acceptation. It was worth a try…

Meanwhile Tyson rubbed his head and returned inside. Who was Sky? Tyson knew it would be useless if he went to ask Kai and the other Russians. They were all very secretive. Even Dennis - who seemed to be very open minded and humorous - excluded himself from Tyson and the group. And Tyson would have to admit that he had ears dropped the conservation. And that would definitely not turn out well for the dragon master that was sure.

A great building in the city of Tokyo. A great staircase leading towards the glass front doors. The blue sky had turned to several bright colours of red, yellow and orange. In about an hour the lamps would enlighten the city.

Rika was leaning against a street lamp. Her eyes were fixed on the entrance to the great building. It was an office from a company which was dealing with high teach and computer software. It was the H & H Company.

From time to time the front doors opened and people came out hurrying home after a long day of work. Rika paid no attention to them. She waited patiently. That was one of her strongest character traits. Patience. But behind all patience was a lot of fire ready to break out if needed.

A young woman at the age of nineteen stepped through the doors. She was sloppy dressed and would normally never fit into a company of high standards. But still she worked there as the identification card told that was clamped at her jacket. Her jacket was black and underneath she was wearing a light violet shirt and a pair of old used baggy trousers. Her light silver shimmering hair stuck out messy around her head as if it had never met a brush.

The woman walked down the stairs rummaging inside of her yellow and black backpack. She rose her hand and fixed a bang of her light hair behind her ear and suddenly looked up her eyes instantly focusing on Rika.

A look of surprise crossed her face for a moment but it vanished quickly. Rika pushed herself away from the street lamp and walked towards the girl. The girl closed her backpack forgetting what she was searching for and walked towards Rika.

It only took them several seconds to approach each other before the stopped in front of each other. Their eyes locked and they were staring at each other for a moment searching in the eyes of the other. Suddenly the girl with the light hair wrapped her arms quickly around Rika embracing her into a hug. Several seconds passed by until Rika returned it. It had been over a year since they had seen each other.

On the side of Tokyo a group of Russians met. Sevastion was sitting on his motorcycle while his girlfriend Maria Petrovich was sitting behind him. Stephania was there leaning against a wall plying with one of her blood red strands of hair. Further there were two boys packed with muscles.

A cell phone rang and Sevastion reached inside the pocket of his black coat. "Yes?… Yes, Sir!…no, sir…-yes, yes of course! Sir!" The Russian flicked the cell phone shut. "Raschka?" Maria asked him. Sevastion nodded. "He is angry. We should have taken them out by now. There is something running in France. He did not want to tell me. He said we should leave the city for a few days…" "What? But then we can't complete the mission!" Stephania exclaimed. "I want my revenge!"

"You know that most of all I want that Hiwatari gets what he deserves!" Sevastion answered his anger and hate clearly in his voice. "But the orders came directly from Voltaire!"

One of the other two boys cursed loud and kicked against the wall with full force leaving it damaged behind.

Meanwhile in Paris, France, a girl with two toned hair walked down an avenue. Her light crimson eyes were thoughtful. These days her thoughts often went towards her brother and the girl she called her best friend.

A cheering voice brought her back to reality. "Are you daydreaming, again?" The young woman next to her asked. Her long light blonde her was falling down her back in shimmering waves. Her clear blue eyes were sparkling. She was one of those girls which got the attention of any man. She was a beauty and many said she would look just like an angel from heaven.

"Sorry." Kaiko said quietly. But still a worried sigh escaped her lips. "Hey! Don't worry! Kai and Rika will do fine! Remember? Last time Rika called she said that the Ivanov siblings, Dennis and Logan were there, too." Kaiko glanced at the one year older girl.

"But…" She tried but was instantly interrupted. "They are fine." Alica emphasised. She put her right arm around the younger girl. "They are tough and got through worse…" "Yeah. I know and you are right…" Kaiko gave in and tried a smile which the other responded. "Let's head back!" The blonde said and brushed her hair out of her face.

Danger! I felt as if more action was needed. The REAL action I want to happen in this story. But I had to introduce some things first.

Please review! If you have any ideas for the story - tell me! I would be happy!
