Chap. 29 : Back to Normal
Lei felt herself spiraling downwards. She opened her eyes and found herself in a completely black dimension. When she stopped, she fell onto the ground. The ground was cold. Suddenly, a chained and bolted door appeared out of nowhere. Lei felt herself attracted to the door. Slowly, she floated towards the door and without doing anything, the door unlocked itself and opened automatically for Lei to come in. As Lei floated like a ghost into the door, it shut itself and locked automatically, never letting anyone in ever again.

Kai opened his eyes open and sat up slowly on the bed. He rubbed his eyes to see more clearly. No mistake, he was in a ward. Everything was bright. The rays of sunlight shone in the room, making it hard for Kai to see.
" You're awake, Kai." Said Ray from the door as Kai jumped.
" Ray !"
" We thought you were dead. You have been in here for 2 days." Informed the neko-jin.
" Speaking of dead, where's Lei ?" asked Kai, anxious to know.
The colour on Ray's face drone.
" She's not dead, is she ?" asked Kai as Ray's face shot up.
" Oh no, she's not. She's sort of dead."
" As in ?"
" Coma. Sadly, now if you excuse me, I still have school." Said Ray as he left the room, leaving Kai dumbstruck.
' Coma huh ?' he thought as he headed for the washroom.
-
Kai entered Lei's room, room 10C. Her room was different from other people. It had slightly darker colour walls and the curtains weren't open. The only thing that enlightened the whole room was a vase of flowers that were sent by the Bladebreakers with a 'Get well' card. Lei's heartbeat sounds could be heard from the machine. It was slow. Unlike normal humans. Kai walked towards Lei and took a seat beside her. She had bandages around her head and hands. Lei had an unreadable expression on her face. She looked like an Egyptian mummy.
' You sure are an interesting book.' He thought.
He slowly reached out for her hand and held it tightly. It was cold. No signal of warmth. Of course ! He forgot what he had witnessed back at the abbey. He himself saw Lei Yamazaki's soul being sucked out by her own bitbeast. Kai thought it was cruel of bitbeasts to be like that. Lei wasn't meant for torturing stuff. Kai tried to recall important events of Lei and him but ended up recalling sad ones. He slapped himself mentally. He shouldn't be here daydreaming. He should be doing something useful to Lei. Like thinking of ways to save her from coma and stuff. Suddenly, the doctor's words came flowing in Kai's mind like water.
Her organs are badly damaged. There are no signs of life in her body. But what puzzles me is how she's living at the moment without warmth. Anyway, we reckon she'll be in coma for the rest of her life until she dies. It'll be a miracle for her to wake up.
Kai shuddered at the doctor's words. He didn't want Lei to be unconscious for the rest of her life. She was only 15 and she had such a long time to live.
The prophecy was created, passed down until the progeny received, as the creator emerged, the prophecy is now, complete.
The sentence two days ago repeated itself in Kai's mind, echoing itself. At that time, Kai was shocked to realize that Lei was just a progeny, an instrument just to complete some stupid dangerous prophecy. What the hell anyway. Using human as a tool. Kai thought it was absurd. Whoever created this stupid bizarre thing was sure mentally disturbed. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door as four teenagers entered the room. Kai frowned. They were the Demoralizers that worked for Boris who was now dead. ( YAY !!!! ) They were wearing normal clothes, unlike their cloaks and hoods stuff.
" We don't want a fight here and vice versa." Said Namie.
" Suit yourself."
" So, why aren't you at school Hiwatari ?" asked Edmund, frowning that Kai was holding Lei's lifeless hand.
" I just woke up this morning, Taylor." Growled Kai.
Both bladers were glaring at each other. Until Namie elbowed Edmund to cut it out.
" Keep your mouth shut Edmund ! You sure know how to offend people." She muttered as Kai smirked.
' Victory.' He thought.
" So, what do you plan to do this afternoon Kai ?" asked Asher, the peace-lover.
Kai blinked at Asher, calling him his name. Edmund gawked at his teammate as if he was some gorilla that escaped from the zoo.
" What !? Now that we're agent-free, we can relax ourselves right ? Can't we be friends ?" asked Asher, pointing his finger at his white shirt that had hands shaking with the 'united' word on it. Salem nodded in agreement.
" He's right. Stop being thick-skulled Ed." She said as everyone hid a smile except for Edmund, embarrassed of himself being called 'Ed'.
" So, Ed, what brings you guys here ?" asked Kai, emphasizing on the 'Ed' word.
" Watch your mouth Hiwatari." Growled the Demoralizer team leader.
" We just came here for a visit. Never thought we'd meet you here thought." Said Namie. " Actually, it was Edmund's idea we visit Lei. He seemed anxious about her."
Kai glared at Edmund. He didn't want to share Lei or let her get taken by anyone.
" She's taken." Said Kai, taking his glare off from Edmund.
" I see." Grinned Asher as Salem shook her head, sighing.
" Stupid Eddie. Fighting over 'love'." She mumbled.
Kai looked at the mocha haired girl, puzzled.
" Don't mind her. She's a bit sensitive." Said Namie, noticing Kai's weird expression.
" Salem Talientzev, don't call me what stupid Ed or Eddie again ! It's embarrassing !" growled Edmund as Salem sent her leader a death glare, so scary that it sent shivers down Kai's spine.
Suddenly, the door flung open and in came the merry bunch.
" ARGH !!! School was boring !!!" groaned Tyson loudly as Hilary pulled his ear.
" You're in the hospital." She lectured, noticing the Demoralizers.
" Hey, if it isn't Mr. Peace-treaty Asher Robinson, what brings you guys here ?" she asked as everyone turned their attention towards Kai who just let go of Lei's icy hand a few seconds ago.
" Yes ?" Kai asked icily. ( Perhaps Lei's icy effect has affected him. )
" Nothing. We're just surprised that you'd actually let them in." said Mariah.
" I see. It seems like some people don't want us around. C'mon mates, we're leaving." Smiled Asher as the four bladers stood up and turned to leave. Salem whispered something to Namie. Namie nodded before looking at Kai.
" Careful Kai, you'd better watch your steps from now on." She said before leaving.
When Salem walked past Tala …
" Forget everything." She told the red-headed prankster before closing the door.
Tala frowned as he took a seat beside Kai. Denise followed him.
" What did she say ?" she asked curiously.
" Oh nothing. She didn't say anything." Lied Tala, smiling.
( Flashback … )
" Wolborg, give it your best shot !!!"
Salem said nothing but just grinned under the hood.
" Do it, Qian." She murmured.
Suddenly, Tala felt himself going through time. Suddenly, he stopped at a ransacked place. Denise had disappeared. And so had Salem.
" Denise !!! Hey !!!!" he called.
" Welcome, Tala Ivanov. You should know this place." Floated Salem's voice from nowhere.
" Hey !!! Where's this place ?!" yelled the red headed, desperate to leave.
" It's a shame you don't know. This, Ivanov, is your mind. Go on, pick any door you like. Each of them will show you something." She grinned as four doors appeared in front of him. They were labeled as A, B, C and D.
' I'll pick … D.' he thought as he opened the door.
Inside was a garden. Something like a park. Tala was curious of what was going to happen.
' Maybe something funny. I hope I'll get inspiration on a new prank.' He thought.
Just then, voices appeared as well as people. Tala hid in a tree, watching two figures as they walked over and stopped.
" C'mon Denise, what's wrong ?" asked a tall red-head.
' ISN'T THAT ME !!???' thought Tala above the tree, staring at himself and Denise, wide-eyes.
" What do you have against me ?" asked Denise, eyeing the older Tala.
" I don't. And what the hell are you talking about !?" asked he older red-head, worried.
" I know you have ! Stop lying ! If not why would that-that-that-that freak be near you !?" yelled Denise.
" She's-just a friend." Sighed the older Tala.
The present Tala was blinking. What friend !? What monster was Denise talking about ?! He didn't have a clue on what was going on.
Suddenly, Denise's voice floated in his ear again. He looked down but she wasn't talking. Suddenly, it came again.
" Tala !!!"
Tala looked around. Who the heck was that ?!
" TALA !!!! SNAP IT OUT !!!!!" it yelled.
Tala suddenly disappeared from the park. And then, he found himself right back at the beydish, fighting with Salem.
" Tala ! What the hell are you doing !? FIGHT HER BACK !!!" yelled Denise from a corner as Tala nodded.
Salem sighed, shaking her head.
" Wolborg ! Novae Rog !!!!" commanded Tala as Qian flew out of the beydish.
Salem said nothing and picked up her blade. She sent Tala and Denise a mysterious look before leaving, disappearing into the air.
Denise ran towards Tala and hugged him tightly.
" Man I thought you were going to lose !!!" she exclaimed. " You had a possessed look in your eyes like you were seeing something unpleasant ! Thank god that you woke up to your sense !!!" she gasped.
Tala looked at her, blinking.
' What was that all about !?' he thought, puzzled.
( End of flashback )
Until now, Tala was still greatly puzzled by what Salem showed him.
" Tala !?" called Tyson as he jumped.
" What ! And don't scare me like that !"
" Sorry, you still haven't given us an answer."
" What answer ?"
Tyson glared at the red head. " We were thinking of going to the park tomorrow. Everyone's going except for Kai. Do you want to go ?"
" Oh err … sure."
" Then it's settled ! We'll meet there after school !" smiled Hilary.

In another world, a young lady around the age of 25 sat on a rock, with a marble small table in front of her. She had dark-green and long hair with front bangs. She was wearing white robes with long sleeves. On the table, was a crystal ball, floating. Inside it, it showed another dark-green haired teenager, fast asleep.
" The time has come."
