{Chapter 2/9}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tyson left Max and Rei to their own devices, and started to wander around thinking about what he should do next.
// KAI!! I'll ask Kai, if anyone can figure out who it is, he could, he's good at figuring stuff out! And besides, it's good excuse for me to talk to him// Tyson blushed as part of his dreams flashed through his mind, he DEFINITELY wouldn't mind having to talk to Kai.
Tyson started searching for Kai, but to his dismay, he couldn't find him anywhere.
He searched for over 40 minutes, but there was no sign of him anywhere.
Thoroughly disheartened and annoyed Tyson decided to go back to his room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As he walked into the room, Tyson was shocked to see someone's shadow.
Quickly he looked around to see who was in his room.
Whoever it was, realized that they had been caught, and before Tyson could get a good look at them, they dropped something on his bed, jumped out the window, and went down the fire escape.
'HEY!!' yelled Tyson.
He quickly grabbed what had been left on his bed (it was another rose and card) and followed the mysterious person.
He bolted down the stairs trying to catch up to them, but they were too fast.
He kept of trying to chase them anyway.
With no idea where he was being lead, Tyson kept of running down the street.
He still couldn't make out any physical characteristics of the person, and he wasn't quite sure how he was able to tell where they went. It felt like something was drawing him in the right direction.
He wasn't quite sure how long he had been running for, but he was finally lead to a park.
Unfortunately as soon as he arrived there, he lost all traces of his target.
Sighing, he flopped onto the grass next to a bench, exhausted.
After a few minutes, he realized that he hadn't read the latest card yet.
Looked at it, and it said:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You know me,
And I know you,
If you ever realized who I was,
I don't know what I would do.
To you,
I may seem strong,
I may seem tough,
But underneath it all, you'll only find fluff.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tyson closed his eyes and smiled, even though he didn't know who the sender was, he couldn't help but feel that he did already know them.
He felt a shadow pass over him, and for some strange reason a warm feeling followed it. He then felt another feeling but he couldn't quite place it.
After a few more seconds of lying there with his eyes shut, he realized that the feeling was the type you got when someone was near you, and watching you.
In a flash had Tyson sat up and opened his eyes, but it was too late.
They had gone, and they had left another rose and card on the bench next to him.
Tyson cursed himself for being so unobservant.
'THEY WERE RIGHT BLOODY NEXT TO ME!!' he yelled, even though there was nobody there to hear him.
Sighing he picked up the card.
//Doesn't matter, I actually like getting these things.//
This time the card said:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That was close,
But not close enough,
I'll have to be more careful,
Getting away from you was tough,
However,
You should be too,
While you were asleep in a park like that,
Anyone could have snuck up and hurt you.
~~~~~~~~~~~
After reading the card again, Tyson realized that it had started to get dark, so he started to head back to the hotel.
He wasn't quite sure how he managed to get back, because he hadn't paid much attention to where he was going when he was running.
As he walked into the foyer, he bumped into Mr. Dickinson.
'Good evening Tyson, have you had a good day?'
Tyson smiled at him, 'Sort of, I've been a bit busy.'
'Doing what?'
'Well, this morning I found this card, and I've been getting more all day.'
'A secret admirer? Do you have any idea who it is?'
'None whatsoever. I asked Kenny, but he said that it might be a joke, and then I asked Max and Ray, but they said that they didn't think it was a joke!'
'Have you asked Kai?'
'Kai.......I wanted to ask him, but I haven't been able to find him anywhere!'
'I see.....'
'Do you have any idea who it might be?'
'Maybe.........................But I really shouldn't say. Maybe if you sit and think about it for awhile, you might be able to work it out for yourself.'
'But............'
'I'm sorry Tyson, but I can't tell you.'
'Oh, ok. I better get going, it's getting late.'
'Alright, good night.
'You too.'
'Oh, and Tyson?'
'Yes Mr. Dickinson?'
'If you find Kai, tell him not to be so secretive about his feelings in the future.'
'Pardon?'
'Don't worry, just tell him that for me, I know he'll understand what I'm talking about.'
'Um......sure thing.'
~~~~~~~~~~~
Still a bit put off that he hadn't gotten any closer to finding out who it was, Tyson trudged back up to his room.
He was so lost in though, that he didn't notice Kai walk past him in the hallway, or the concerned look Kai gave him as he went by without noticing his presence.
Tyson walked into his room and flopped dejectedly onto his bed.
He groaned as he realized that he was lying on another card and rose.
He pulled them out from under him, and looked sadly upon the rose that had just been squashed.
This time the card said:
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Time for bed,
It's getting late,
You need your rest,
And your dreams await.
Go to sleep,
And worry not,
Tomorrow's another day,
Let all your troubles be forgot.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Unfortunately for Tyson, even though the message was pleasant, he wasn't tired and he couldn't stop wondering who the sender was.
// Everyone I asked had different thoughts on the matter, but I haven't really come up with any for myself. What I need to do is go through the cards, and see what clues I can get from them.//
Tyson picked up the first card he got.
Roses are red, Violets are blue, I wanted you to know, that I really like you! Kenny is smart, More than some folk, But rest assured, This isn't a joke. I know what your thinking, I'm not a stalker, I happened to be there at the same time, You didn't notice 'cause your such a loud talker.
//Okay, they have to be somebody really close to the team, especially if they were in the same room as Kenny and I, maybe I should ask Kenny to see if he saw anyone.//
If you knew who I was, You might find this strange, I can't tell you who I am, 'Cause everything would change. You think you know me, But you really do not, I'm scared to tell you how I feel, to your face, So this is the only chance I've got.
You know me, And I know you, If you ever realized who I was, I don't know what I would do. To you, I may seem strong, I may seem tough, But underneath it all, you'll only find fluff.
//Who's someone I know well, but would have stuff about them that I don't have a clue about? Someone who is known to hide things and seems cold and distant....//
That was close, but not close enough, I'll have to be more careful, Getting away from you was tough, However, you should be too, while you were asleep in a park like that, anyone could have snuck up and hurt you.
Time for bed, It's getting late, you need your rest, and your dreams await. Go to sleep, and worry not, tomorrow's another day, let all your troubles be forgot.
Tyson thought for a minute, //Hang on, I know someone who's cold and distant! I can't believe it was so obvious after I thought about it! WHY DIDN'T I JUST SIT DOWN AND READ THEM BEFORE! IT WOULD HAVE SAVED SO MUCH HASSLE! //
He grabbed a pen and started writing, tomorrow he would confront them.
