We left off as Tara escaped from Balkov Abbey, Boris and her own death. She escaped by going through the air vents.

Balkov Abbey:

As she crawled out of the air vents she found herself outside but still within BioVault property. "Damn! How am I going to get away with my busted leg and all the guards?"

As she was planning out her escape she hid behind the back of the building, hiding herself from anyone's view. She sat there for a few minutes and it started to snow.."Great! Just great!" she fumed. "What was the point of escaping if she would end up freezing to death?"

Tara wanted to punch herself for even thinking that. She had been wanting to escape that prison that she had to call a home since she was sent there where she was young..

FLASHBACK:

Moscow, Russia, 1993

"K-k-kids, get ready to run. Make sure those bad men that were chasing us don't catch you. Pretend you're playing tag and those men are It. Now go. hurry. be careful." Said a woman whose face was all out of focus(like on the news to keep the person's identity confidential)

But the little girl wouldn't leave, she could see that something was wrong. The little boy next to her wouldn't leave either.

"Mommy, but why are those bad men chasing us? Did we do something wrong?" asked the girl. "Mommy? Mommy? Mommy!"

Something happened and the woman protecting the kids fell down. Blood tricked down her face and her eyes stared blankly at the floor.

The little girl looked at the dead woman with horror in her eyes. The boy just stood there, tears forming in his eyes. He grabbed Tara's hand and tried to pull her towards the roof access stairs. But it was too late. the men dressed in black had gotten onto the roof and grabbed each one of them.

"NOOOOOOOOOO! LET ME GO! HELP!" they both shouted. "HELP!"

End Of FLASHBACK

It took a snowflake landing on her numb nose to wake up Tara from her daydream. She looked up and say a steel fence in front of her. "Of course!" she thought. "I'll just climb the fence.. No one who think that I would escape in such a easy way."

And with that, she climbed over the fence, swung her injured leg over the other side first and attempted to climb back down the other side.

The steel on the fence and the snow resulted in the fence being very slippery and as Tara's numb hand grabbed part of the fence to hoist herself down, it slipped and she started to fall.

Luckily Statix was ready to ease her fall (like a big pillow or something) so no more damage was done to Tara. She quickly (or as quick as an injured leg can move) walked to the nearby park where she could rest on the benches while she decided what to do with herself.

* * * * * * *
*

As Tara rested her bloody leg on the cold wooden bench in the nearby park (the one where Max and Ray find the All-Starz and the White Tigers and when the two teams have a beybattle, if you don't know which one then forget it. Just think.. park!) She started to think about her recent dream about the little girl and boy and the dead woman.

"I'm sure that, that little girl was me but who was the little boy? Was that actually my mother? Where was my father then?" Tara pondered.

She fished through her pockets in her beige cargo pants and found the gold locket she got when she was very young. Inside it was a small smudged picture of four people. The only visible face in the whole picture was of a little girl. She couldn't remember who gave the locket to her but she knew she was to never show it to anyone at BioVault, especially Boris cuz he would just take it away and sell it for money. (A/N: If anyone wants to know.. Yes its still snowing and its almost 11:00 pm.)

/My child what are we going to do now?/ a familiar voice asked.

"I dunno Statix.. I don't know.." Tara replied with a worried voice. "I could go back to J&J's tomorrow morning and ask Jon and Janet (the owners of J&J Diner) to let me stay with them but then it would be kinda weird staying alone with a married couple.."

/Ewwwww../ Statix commented childishly.

".. Or I could ask my friend Hikaru Tokuma to stay over at her place.."

"Or you could get your leg to a hospital!" snapped an unknown figure.

Tara jumped and rose to her feet. "Who's there????? Show yourself!!!!!!" she demanded.

Tara expected to see Boris or Tala and the Demolition Boys come out of the shadows but then again they wouldn't tell her to go to a hospital, they're had a gun ready to shoot her. But it was actually.. Kai who came out!

"What are you doing here?" she asked suspiciously.

"This is a free country, no?" Kai replied in his normally dull voice. He recognised Tara as the waitress from the diner that afternoon and Tyson's competitor for their beybattle. He sat down next to her. "And anyways I'm the one who should be asking questions.. What happened to you?" he eyed Tara's bloody leg with suspicion. "Well.. Um.. You see.. I can't tell you ok! I.. I jus-.. I just can't go to the hospital" Tara stuttered and blushed. "Fine.. Hmpf!" was Kai's reply.

They sat there on the bench for like 5 minutes when Kai realised Tara was shivering like crazy(teeth chattering and everything). As he said "Are you ok?" he asked but this time his voice had a bit of worry in it considering she was only wearing cargo pants, tennis shoes, and a light blue sweatshirt. "I'm..*teeth chatter* f-f-i-in-e-.." And with that she fainted and landed on Kai's right shoulder.

"Huh? W-w-wh-at?" he sputtered to himself. He felt her forehead, it was really cold. (A/N: No duh! Its winter at night time after all!)

"Shit! She fainted! What am I supposed to do? I'd bring her to a hospital but she refused before so I guess I.. have to bring her back to the hotel" Kai thought.

So Kai had to carry Tara (princess style, so he had his arms wrapped around her back and her knees) to their new hotel, (cuz Tyson got them kicked out of their other one). Lucky for him, the room arrangements changed too so now he had the room all to himself so no one had to know what was going on.

New Room Arrangements: Tyson/Kenny/Dizzi(but she doesn't really count I guess) Max/Ray Kai

Kai walked into the dark room, flipped the lights on and put Tara on the clean bed. He pulled her pant leg up and started to clean the wound.(A/N: Its not actually that bad of a wound not serious enough to need stitches but bad enough to hurt her when she walks.) That's when he noticed it.

* * * * * * *
*

A very familiar mark just above her ankle. He stared at it for a long time as memories flooded his mind. The first day at BioVault, the beatings he received, the torture and abuse, Black Dranzer and the day they tattooed the blue shark-fins on him as a symbol of their possession over him. He finally snapped out of it when he heard bits of an argument coming from the other side of the door. Kai snapped back to work.

After cleaning the wound, Kai grabbed gauze bandages (the ones that are used to wrap around wounds like tape.. Fabric tape..hehe). He then felt her forehead again and she was burning up really bad. (And I mean real bad!) So he spent most of the night caring for her. (cooling her forehead by putting a wet cloth on it and stuff like that)

That morning:

"Augh..!" Tara woke up with a fright. She had the same dream as yesterday, about the little girl and boy and the dead woman. In fact she has had those same dreams every night for almost a month.

"ZzZzZzZzZzZz" snored Kai next to her. Her focus snapped to him. "he must have stayed up all night to take care of me.." she thought with a smile. She got out of bed and walked to the balcony.

She looked at the view surrounding her. Cars everywhere, people walking in every direction and yet it seemed so peaceful to Tara compared to the abbey. She breathed the fresh air (even if it had all that pollution in it) and smiled. She might as well enjoy being away from Boris and his hatred towards her.

She went back to the bed and sat down. As she looked back at Kai she noticed his brown/crisom eyes staring back at her. She jumped and scolded "Stop doing that!" He stood up, with his arms crossed and asked in a very monotone, "Where did you get that mark on your leg from."

Tara instantly looked down and asked "How did you know?" very quietly. Then she looked at her leg, the one that was all bandaged up and laughed weakly, "Oh.." She got up and started walking around the room in circles, then she sat down again and glanced at Kai's glare. She sighed and whispered, "Well.. it all started.."

Cliffy! Or was it? Oh well. Plz R&R! Good chappie? Bad chappie? Tell me your suggestions please! It is greatly appreciated.. by of course moi!

Ja ne!(translation: Cya!)
