This is almost the end of this extremely short fic but considering my twisted mind never sleeps, others will follow. And thanks to MasterDranzer and Frostt for reviewing.

Bad news

Several years had passed; Taka and Kai had become very close friends. They were practically inseparable, but only in secret. All the students had been invited to a demonstration of the ultimate blade, Black Dranzer. Both Taka and Kai were excited, though they were both lower level class. They watched the black blade spin with perfect balance, then take out a couple of hundred blades without faltering at all. It was amazing. They were both curious about the extent of its power.

' Come on, we have to check it out,' Taka nagged.

' But what if we get caught?' Kai asked uncertainly.

' But, you must be a little curious. Please. ' ' Fine, we'll go test it out tomorrow night, okay.'

' Thank you, thank you, thank you!'

They waited until night had fallen, before sneaking out of bed and meeting up outside the dormitory entrance. They knew very well that they could be caught at anytime, but they had done this too many times before. They often met up and talked about stuff they would never be allowed to mention during the daytime. They had never been caught, yet.

' Here, keep this.'

' What is it, Takamara?'

' It's my necklace.'

' Why are you giving it to me?'

' So that if we are ever separated, you will remember me.'

' I don't need it.'

' I'm not asking you to wear it, I just want you to keep it.'

' Fine.'

*From around the corner* ' Hmm, you wont like being separated will you,' Tala said to himself, grinning.

*********

*Next day*

' Takamara, Kai, you know where to go,' Boris said in his usual tone.

They both did.

' Takamara, I'm deporting you,' Voltaire said rudely upon the enter of the two children.

' What?' she asked.

' You will be transferred to China for the mean time, and moved as they see fit.'

' You cant do that!'

' Oh, but I'm afraid I can.' He said with a grin on his face,' and you, little girl, cannot stop me.'

She scowled at him for a few moments.

' Kai, escort her to the exit, she leaves tonight.'

He nodded, and lead her out of the room.

'What's he deporting me for!?'

' Dunno.'

'It isn't fair!,' she sulked,' we won't be able to do what we planned!'

Kai remained silent. He helped her pack her bags without a word, and didn't say goodbye all afternoon. He didn't accually speak until that night.

' Well, bye I guess,' takamara said.

Kai didn't reply, but his deep grey eyes looked at her affectionatly.

' Yeah, i'll miss you too.'

She was practically dragged to the car, as she was frantcally waving. once the car began movind slowly down the drive, she drew an invisible line around her neck with her fingers.Kai mimicked the movement, and then realized what she had meant.

' The necklace!' he said aloud without meaning to.

he ran inside and scurried into Takamara's old room. there on the desk, was her necklace and a note. note and looked down at it. It was a plan of the maze and traps in the entrance to the lab they were going to break into that night. Next he picked up the necklace and looked at it closely, something was different about it,he saw a pendant on the end of it. he inspected it closely and saw a small clip on the bottom. he fliped it up and the gemstone opened, reveiling several pictures. the first was of takamara not so long ago, and the second was a picture of Kai. He did not know how she had found one, but she had. The third was a familliar female face. She had long blue hair and deep grey eyes. Kai quickly took the picture out of the pendant and looked at the back. it clearly read: Mrs. Kairi Hiwatari.

*Flash to present day*

Kai still stood at the bridge. He was searching his pockets for the pendant he had picked up when training at the abbey previous week.

' You looking for this?' a voice came from the other side of the bridge.

' Come on Kai, you didn't think we would just let you walk off, did you?' the bubbley voice of Max said.

' Yeah, we're your friends,' Tyson added.

' And we know you feel the same about us,' kenny inputed.

' Here,' one of the boys walked forward,' this is yours.'

Kai took the pendant from Rays hand, and smiled at his friends.

' Thanks, guys,' he said.

he opened the pendant to see the only two people he had ever looked up to.

' I will find you, Takamara. And that evil bastard isn't going to stop me.'
