"So, that's how it happened." Oliver observed as Tyson had just explained what had happened that evening.

Eve nodded. "I wonder how she is." Eve said. She pulled out a pink and white Beyblade from her pocket. "I hope she's okay."

A tense silence spread through the kids in the waiting room.

'If she was any normal human, she would have died a long time ago…' Johnny thought, he was sure Oliver and Enrique were thinking the same thing.

"That's all very well." A voice said, a voice possessing strange familierness. "But why did they come after her? And who were they working for?"

They all turned their heads to see Michael, accompanied by the rest of the All Starz and Judy standing in the doorway.

Judy ran over to her son and pulled him into a tight, crushing hug.

"Max! Your alright, aren't you? He didn't hurt you, did he?" She said, as Max pulled away from his mother's grasp.

"I'm fine mom. Honest. It's Julz that's hurt!" Max protested, blushing slightly at the fact his mother was making such a fuss about him.

Max turned to glare at Angie, she shrugged.

"Tyson gave me the numbers, I just dialled. I didn't know who I was talking to." Angie replied.

"You must be Max's mom." Fiona said. "I'm Fiona, personal friend to the one who's been struck down, or rather shot down, as it were."

Judy smiled at Fiona, then turned to Max. "Is this your girlfriend Max?" She asked.

Max blushed crimson, Fiona just laughed.

"Excuse me." Kai spat. "But, the reason why were here!?"

"Yes," Enrique agreed. "I do think that's more important then talking about girls. Don't get me wrong, I love to talk about girls, it's jus--"

"It all started when we were at Julie's place." Johnny began. "She was planning to train with her friends for the regional, I," He paused and searched for the correct term. "Persuaded, her to take part in."

"Persuaded…" Oliver muttered. "Bribed is more like it."

"Anyway." Enrique continued. "Robert was looking through some old books, and he found this sort of record book, or diary… It was about his aceient civilisation, who had the power to control Bit-Beasts."

"What?" Emily exclaimed. "That's impossible."

"That's what it said." Oliver said. "It was written by some girl called Nienna."

"What did the book say?" Chelsie asked.

"That's just it. We don't know." Enrique confessed. "Robert read the book, then disappeared off somewhere. He came back looking as though he had just thrown up or something. He was all pale and trembling."

"What happened to the girl who wrote the diary?" Kenny asked.

"That's what Robert went to find out." Johnny said, banging his fist on the wall. "Either he doesn't know… Or he's not telling us."

Ray stood up. "I've got this horrible feeling in my gut, that's telling me something." He said.

"Uhh… You need to go to the bathroom?" Tyson asked.

"No idiot!" Kai growled at Tyson. "I think I understand too, now that I think about it. It all makes a creepy kind of sense."
