Just then Ray came running back in to the room.
"Where's Rochelle gone!" He yelled. "Where is she?"
"She's gone Ray." Kai said, laying a hand on his shoulder. "She said something about a time limit." Ray looked shocked and then burst in to tears. Kai took Ray in to his arms. "I'm sorry Ray." Was all he could say, it didn't seem to help Ray though.
"I'll never see her again!" Tyson and the others stood in the doorway, not knowing what to do. "I never got to tell her how much I missed her!" Ray wasn't holding anything back. Kameko could see that some thing's were going to be said and done this afternoon that might hurt some people, namely her self and Kai, and she didn't want the others to be on the receiving end of any of the things that were gong to be said.
"Guys," She said turning to the others at the door, "I think you should go and practice or something." She then looked at Kai who nodded in agreement.
"Go," he said, "This is between Ray, Kameko and I." The others left, closing the door behind them. "Ray." Kai said. "Do you want to sit down and talk this through with us? We're still a bit confused." Ray looked up at Kai, tears still streaming down his face. Ray nodded and Kai led him through to the more private lounge the suit boasted. Kameko followed, shutting the door behind her. "Now," Kai said, sitting Ray down in one of the big comfy looking chairs, "Tell us everything, and I mean everything Ray." Kai said, sitting in the chair opposite Ray. Kameko sat down on the arm of the chair. Ray looked at them, suddenly remembering when he was little his parents had sat him down just like this and had asked him why he always came home from school with bruises on his arms. Ray suddenly felt scared like he had that day, the bullies had said that if he told his parents of the teachers what they were doing they would kill him, the same feeling he had felt that day bubbled in his stomach. "Ray," Kai said, seeing the fear in Ray's eyes, "We're not going to kill you, we only want to know the truth." Ray didn't say a word. Kai went to say something else but Kameko put her hand on his arm.
"Let him tell us in his own time Kai." Kameko said. "I can feel an old fear in him, welling up from some old memory." Kameko the got up and walked over to the large drinks cabinet in the corner and poured three drinks. She handed one to Ray. Ray looked up and took the glass.
"Thank you." He said, finally finding his voice.
"Now," Kai said in a firm tone, "Tell us. What is going on here Ray? You say that Kameko and I are your parents. That I understand, in an odd way."
"What we don't understand," Kameko said, "Is HOW." Ray looked at them both.
"H.how what?" He managed to get out.
"How did you get here, what were the circumstances?" Kai said. "Or don't you feel ready to tell us?"
"I.I want to tell you but something keeps telling me no." Ray put his head in his hands again. "I don't know." He wailed. Kameko got up off the arm of the chair and knelt down beside Ray. He laid a hand on his leg.
"Ray. Like I said earlier you need to tell us in your own time. If that means never then I'm OK with that. I want you to understand something though." Ray looked down at Kameko, who smiled. "If ever you need to talk to someone you can come and talk to me, any time of day or night, do you understand?" Ray nodded. "OK. Right now we have more pressing business to attend to."
"What's that?" Kai asked.
"Those people who attacked Ray and Max, that's what." Kameko turned to Ray. "It wasn't your sister or any of her friends that attacked you was it?"
"No," Ray said, shaking his head, "Definitely not them. They wouldn't attack any of us, especially me. It was someone else, someone I recognised from somewhere but couldn't quite place the face with a name." Ray looked up at Kai. "He reminded me of you Kai." Kai looked shocked.
"Are you trying to say.?"
"NO." Ray said quickly. "No I'm not. I'm just saying he reminded me of you but it wasn't you. Something about him just.his manner, the way he stood, the way he acted.it was mainly what he said though that reminded me of you."
"What did he say?" Kameko asked, laying a hand on Kai's arm.
"He said something like; 'We shall see about that shall we? These people were asking for this, they were worthless peasants.' What did he mean?" Kameko walked over to the window in the room and stared out across the landscape to the near by cathedral, St. Paul's. She watched as the evening sun glinted off the stark white doom and then began to sink behind the doom, illuminating like a halo. Kai came up behind her and laid a hand on her shoulder.
"What are you thinking about?" He asked. Kameko laid a hand over Kai's.
"About the entire day and how it's gone, that's all babe." Kai smiled.
"My new nickname is it? Babe?" Kameko turned round and hugged Kai. She didn't know why but something about the cold-hearted man intrigued her. Something made her want to be with him, show him the joys of emotions. Kameko nodded. "Ray's gone to get something, said he wanted us to see a little of the future." Kai frowned. "Personally I don't want to."
"But Kai," Kameko said, turning her head up so she could see him, "We already have. Rochelle and her friends, I have a feeling they're the other's kids from the future." Kai looked out at the quickly darkening sky.
"Maybe you're right Kameko, maybe you're right."
"You'll still be saying that when you're older Kai." Kai and Kameko jumped. Ray stood, leaning up against the doorframe, a smile on his face. Kameko didn't know why but something wasn't quite right with this scene. She then spotted the scar of Ray's left cheek; it hadn't been there before. "Observant as always Kameko." Ray said.
"Who are you? You're not Ray!" Kameko said.
"I am Kameko, just not the Ray you know at the moment. I'm here to give you a warning." He walked up to Kameko and Kai. "What ever you do," He frowned, "Do NOT let Bio Volt get a hold of you."
"That's the same warning Rochelle gave to us." Kameko said, her hand rising to her mouth in shock.
"Listen to me!" Ray demanded. "If they do get you Kameko DON'T let them break you, you're stronger then you think and Kai," His eyes turned to his father, "Don't let Voltair tell you anything different to what you know is true, what is RIGHT!" He looked at them both with pleading eyes. "Please promise me!" He seemed desperate. They both nodded. Suddenly a noise came from outside the door and before either of them could say another word Ray was gone. Kai clutched on to Kameko, what ever was out there WASN'T Ray returning.
"Kameko get behind me now." He said as the door burst open to reveal two bladers. Kai noted instantly that they both wore the Bio Volt symbol on their jackets. Suddenly there was a crash and Kameko screamed. "KAMEKO!" Kai screamed himself as he was attacked from all directions, not knowing where to turn. Suddenly he was hit from behind. The last thing he saw was a pair of feet. The last thing he heard was the voice of his grandfather.
"I think you need re-educating my dear boy." Then everything went black.
///
The others were downstairs now. They had gotten a great shock when those friends of Ray's sisters had suddenly started disappearing. Tyson had screeched when that boy, Tyler, had vanished, he'd been about to asking him who his father was; he had a strange feeling that he was. Tyson shivered. Him, a father? There must be a mistake, he wasn't father material, never had been and never would be.
"I still can't believe," Max was saying, "That Kai and Kameko actually got together in the first place. I mean," Max added, "Kai's a bit of a cold-hearted ass-hole isn't he."
"True enough." Kenny said
"Never judge a book by it's cover boys" Dizzi said. "I still can't believe what you've just told me, Ray is actually the son of Kameko Dickinson and Kai Hiwatari. Still a bit hard to process."
"You're telling me that Dizzi." Mr. Dickinson said. "I mean that's my granddaughter we're talking about." He sighed. "I'm going for a walk, do any of you boy's want to join me?" They all shook their heads. Mr. Dickinson then left the building.
"This is just madness." Tyson said. It was the first thing he had said in an hour. "How can Ray be Kai and Kameko's son? He's the same bloody age as US!"
"From what I could make out," Kenny said, "Ray was sucked in to some sort of time machine and got stuck here, in the past." Kenny sighed. "It's like Dizzi said, still a bit hard to process."
"Oh dear." Dizzi said suddenly.
"What's wrong now, you found a fire wall?" Kenny asked.
"No." Dizzi said. "We've got company!" Dizzi yelled as windows and doors suddenly started to smash and break.
"We're in big trouble." Tyson said. "BIG TROUBLE!" That was the last thing he said as the knock out gas was thrown in and started knocking out all the people in the hotel. As Tyson fell to the ground he thought he heard a woman scream. He then heard Kai scream out Kameko's name. After that everything was black.

Author: Oh my God. :-O. What's going on? What does Bio Volt want with our heroes?
Kai: I don't know but what ever you do you better bloody do something about it! I'm actually quite absorbed in this story, and that Kameko chick IS major hot stuff!
Ray: This is definitely a new way to portray a family theme in a Beyblade Fanfic.
Kenny: You're telling them and us that?
Kai: Who asked you lot to butt in? Anyway please R&R.
