-----------------------------------------------------------

Tala continued to run through the snowy forest with an unconscience Kai on his back. The guards had picked up on their trail and were close behind.

Tala looked up and saw that the forest would soon part into a field of grass. He cursed in Russian, realizing that Voltaire's men would have a clear view of them.

With nowhere else to go, he headed for the field, hoping they could find help close by.

"There they are!" He heard a guard shout.

Meanwhile:

The BladeBreakers were training in a park a few blocks from their hotel. It was towards the outside of the city, and not many buildings were around. Mr. Dickinson thought that if they had a training battle, their minds might be eased about Kai's disappearance.

Tyson shouted as he launched Dragoon into battle with Rei's Drigger. "I still can't forget about Kai!"

"They'll find him. I believe Kai can take care of himself until then." Kenny said.

The two blades hit each other a few times before knocking themselves out of the beystadium and landing into their owners' hands.

Just then, gunshots were heard close by, then shouting in Russian.

They looked over to the edge of the park, and saw faint shadows in the trees. A few moments later, a figure ran out of the trees carrying someone and tripped on a root of a tree. The person he was carrying was thrown a few feet away.

"Kenny! Go get Mr. Dickinson and the cops!" Tyson yelled as he and Rei ran off to help the unknown figures.

"Tyson! It's Tala!" Rei exclaimed.

They helped him up.

"Are you alright?" Rei asked.

Tala looked around frantically. "Kai!"

Kai was lying with his back turned towards his friends, and shaking slightly. He had hit his head on a rock, but it seemed to wake him up. He got up on all fours and spit out some blood and coughed.

Tala and Rei rushed over and pulled him off the ground.

"We have to go!" Tala exclaimed, seeing that the guards were very close.

They began to run for the hotel. 3 men immerged from the trees and began to fire at them, missing within inches.

Tyson turned around. "Let it rip!" He shouted as he launched his beyblade and the guards.

Dragoon flew through the air and knocked the guns out of the guards' hands. The guards cried out in pain as the blade cut their hands.

Dragoon returned to Tyson's hand. "That should give us some time." He said and continued to run.

The bladers exited the park and were heading through an alley to the hotel, when suddenly, a black car stopped in front of them!

The 3 men had recovered and retrieved their weapons and blocked the blader's only exit.

Tala cursed under his breath. They sat Kai down against the brick wall and prepared for the worst.

The door opened, and a large man stepped out.

"Voltaire!" Rei and Tyson exclaimed.

Voltaire chuckled seeing the world champions trapped like rats. He looked down at his grandson who was bleeding severely and gasping for breath.

"I'm surprised you got this far." He told Tala. "And I'm impressed to see that you're still alive." He looked at Kai again.

Kai growled and looked over to his grandfather. He couldn't see him, but he knew were he was.

Voltaire smirked.

He pulled out a gun from his coat pocket and aimed it at Tala.
