Chapter Six: A Small Clue
It was Sunday morning. Sunlight poured in through the hospital windows and illuminated the white walls of the room. Tyson, Ray, Max and Kenny were all sleeping on chairs and tables in the room with Kai. All had slight burns too and were also in bandages and what not. As the light hit his eyes, Tyson woke up and yawned. He walked over to Kai's bed and notices that Kai was already awake.
"How ya feeling there Kai?" asked Tyson, rubbing his burns on his arms.
"I've been better." Kai assured, as Tyson smiles at that.
A while later the rest of the team wakes up. Regaining their memory, they try to act as encouraging as possible. Kai was up but his spirits weren't as good. The doctor came in and said Kai should be fine after another night's stay. Everyone gave a sigh of relief.
"Well now that that's settled," said Kenny, "We should fill you in on what happened after you fainted Kai, and I must say that Dizzy here is just itching to show what she's recorded."
Kai got up from his bed and looked at the computer screen in front of him, crowded around by Max, Tyson and Ray. "Enjoy boys," came Dizzy's voice, "And you may need your heavy duty sunglasses too!"
The screen started off with heaps of fire coming from the battle dish, and then an enormous bit-beast rising up from Talon's blade. "Whoa what's that thing?" asked Tyson in awe. The bit-beast had similar features to Kai's Dranzer but its tail spread out like a 360 degrees fan.
"That's a Ho-oh, and one of the most powerful and oldest spirit I've seen yet," Kenny told them.
They continued to watch as one big explosion knocked Kai off and hit the ground. Talon got shot back a bit too but regained ground as the smoke started to clear. The screen shook as it showed Ray, Max and Tyson running to Kai. "This is the part guys," Kenny cautioned as it closed-in unsteadily on Talon. They all watched as Talon slowly went down on the still-burning dish and grabbed Kai's Beyblade. Kai gave a growl, but the anger didn't stay long when a flash of bright light suddenly blasted behind the retreating Talon and knocked him to the ground. The screen blurs and stops as Talon runs away leaving Dranzer and the blade on the ground, unharmed.
Kenny closed the laptop. Kai was the first to speak, "A flash. from nowhere?" he said disturbingly.
"And a powerful looking one too," added Ray, "I think our best guess is that it came from another bit-beast, unless you guys have any more ideas."
"I agree," said Kai still staring at the laptop, "There's no way any technology today could've did that. That flash was the work of a sacred legendary spirit."
"Our only problem is," came Tyson, "that we don't know who did it, or if it's untamed."
"I think it's tamed," said Max, "No wild bit-beast would just out and blast someone. It wouldn't make much sense."
The boys talked about the mysterious bit-beast for quite awhile. Ray suggested that someone they knew like Robert, Oliver and even Tala could've done it. But Tyson argued about why they would've show their faces. Everyone got stuck on that one, so they let it go. The next day the doctor checked on Kai again and said he was all ready to go for now.

It was Monday, and Tyson, Ray and Max were walking to school once again. Kai said he wasn't up to a day of school just yet, so he stayed back. Summer was coming in just two more weeks, if they can make it, they can train for this year's world championships, and hopefully get as strong as Talon. Speaking of him by the way, Talon no longer attended the school; instead Ms. King-Kay announced that his family is moving again.
"I bet Talon chickened off after that blast he got," whispered Tyson to Kenny.
"Maybe, but we'll probably meet him at the world championships." Kenny whispered back.
As they're in school, Kai took a long and lonely walk back at the hills behind the school. He came upon the dish where he and Talon battled. He can still feel the pain and feelings of the struggle, but he was here to find something. He wasn't sure what, but like everyone else searching for something, he'll know it when he sees it.
Kai took the uneven dirt path of the hills, his long flowing white scarf behind him. The path led in circles, and Kai passed by the dish a few times. He gave a sigh and sat down with one leg up and put his arm on it, trying to figure out what just happened to him. He was a world champion one year, but got beaten by Tyson last year. He knew he has to reclaim his place this year, or everyone will just look at him like just another Beyblader. just another.
"Huh?" Kai notices something blue on the ground on the other side of the Beyblading dish. He got up and cautiously walks over, eyes glued to the blue thing. Then he notices the blue thing was a headband, still quite unsoiled and dirt free. This headband hasn't been here for long. thought Kai.
Then his eyes widened, "This is it, a clue." He looks around and examines the placement of the headband. He smiles. "It's just where that blast of light came from and sent off Talon. Whoever this belongs to must be responsible for it." He puts his finding in his pockets and starts to walk back.

Following day at school, Kai decided to actually confront everybody after his defeat by Talon. Tyson, Max and Kenny found this odd knowing that Kai is secretive and surely doesn't even want to get close to school.
In Kai's class, he looks at everyone closely to see if they could've worn the headband. But he didn't remember any of the boys in the class with headbands, even the tough guys. He sighed. He'll just have to check Tyson's class.
After school, the team was under a cherry blossom tree to settle their thoughts and to plan what they're going to do next. Max immediately suggested that they should train, but with all the homework and school, there wasn't any time to train until the holidays. Tyson replied with "HARD CORE SHOW-OFF EXCERISES TO EVERYONE AT SCHOOL!" Everyone just looked away at that.
As Kenny, Tyson, Max and the ever-complimenting Dizzy were arguing, Kai wanted to know whom the mystery guy was with the blue headband. "Yo, Ray" he called. Ray flipped his tail around and said, "Yeah, Kai? Wassup?" Kai paused as he tried to get his mind straight, "Know anyone that might wear a blue headband?"
Ray looks at Kai confused. "Not really. why?" At that, Kai took out the blue headband and held it out. "I found this where the beam of light came out and shot Talon. Whoever did it must have worn this and accidentally left it there." Ray thought for a moment as he rummaged his memories for any headband. His eyes sparked.
"I know who," said Ray in a hushed voice, "Kimmy wears it."
