DISCLAIMER- OK. I don't really own anything but this story's plotline. So, get off my back and leave me the heck alone. All lawyers will be pounded into the ground by my mighty fist. Trust me, it WON'T feel good.

I'm sorry. It's taken me forever to update, but I had a really good reason. You see, we had a book report due and 6 test in one day and I didn't study for any of them till the last minute. Please, you must understand. I was working on it, but my brain froze and I got caught up in school work.

So, here it is, the chapter no body has been waiting for............................

FUKAI MORI CHAPTER...UM, 5!

(I think that's right).

Kai P.O.V

It's time. I need to find out everything se knows about our parent's death. I think that may help my problem. The dreams...they continue. And it's not only that anymore. Somebody has been sending me e-mails. There just so disturbing.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Flashback

Kai sat on is bed meditating. "You've got mail." "Hn, Stupid computer." He was quickly from the bed and into the computer chair. "Let's see who dares to interrupt my meditation time." Kai clicked on the envelope and watched the message appear.

'Darkness shall rise

And the Phoenix will fall,

And the flame of the Phoenix will be consumed by the darkness that haunts all.'

"I JUST DON'T GET IT!" Kai banged fist on the closet thing to him, which just happened to be the wall. The wall shook greatly and sounded through the whole floor of the house (let's just pretend that Tyson has a two story house).

"Knock, knock, knock." Kai faced the door and watched as Rei entered. "Are you ok? What was that?" Rei walked to Kai's bed and sat down. "I'm fine. Just...frustrated."

Rei P.O.V

I'm so close to him. 'Wow, I'll have to find out what kind of cologne he wears. He smells sooooo...GOOD!' "So, um...what have you been doing all day?" Oh, great job Rei, WHAT a conversation starter. "Meditating. It's... the only thing that helps me relax." Kai looked at me. Oh, really. I'll just have to test that. "Do...you have to meet your sister soon? Or are you free for the next couple of hours." I am SO good. "Not for a while. I'm suppose to meet her in about and hour and a half." "Take off your shirt and lay down on your stomach." "Whatever." I watched patiently as Kai removed his shirt, revealing his muscles and scars. But, the scars. There were so many of them. I can't help but to wonder where they came from. He laid down on his back. My hand lazily traced his scars, up and down falling them till they were no longer visible. I went down towards the small oh his back, where there was a tattoo. It had the Chinese symbol for phoenix on it. I traced it and asked him, "Kai, why did get this?" He froze and thought for a moment. "I'm starting to tell you way to much Kon." he sighed. "When I was little, my dad would tell me how proud he was of me, and how he wanted me to always remember my heritage no matter what happened. So, when my Grandfather threatened to take me away from my family, he tattooed it on me so that even if I was taken away, and forgot my family and friends and all, I would always remember who I was and what I was apart of. The Phoenix Clan*." His hand grabbed onto the sheet below him, as he sat deep in thought. "I'm sorry, maybe I shouldn't have brought it up." Oops. Maybe I shouldn't have said that. Kai looked back at me and sat up. "It's alright. I needed a reminder of who I was just now anyway. Come, get up. It's to quiet down there. I need to check up on the others." He put his shirt back on and walked out the door. 'So much for my 'I'll test that' plan.' I sighed as I stood up and followed Kai's path through the door.

Bottom of Stairwell

Kai's P.O.V

I entered into the family room to see Tyson and surprisingly, my sister playing video games. "Kaiya, you shouldn't hang around him for so long. I don't want his stupidity rubbing off on my older sister." I walked towards her and she paused the game. "WHAT WAS THAT FOR YOU BIG BULLY!!!" Tyson threw the remote at me, but of course missed. "Kai that's not very nice." Max, Kenny, and Rei looked at me disapprovingly. I simply rolled my eyes and turned back to my sister. "Stop playing games. You are wasting my time." "AAAWWW, little brother you are NO fun." She turned off the game system and stood beside me. "We should go now. We have important matters to discuss." I walked past her and waited as for her to follow. Once se was walking behind me, I left. "What is troubling you little brother?" Her face was laced with concern. "These dreams, are you having them too? Do you not relive the day our parents died every night?" I stopped and looked into her eyes. I saw her look and I new she was having them too. "I fear someone is trying to do to us what they did to our parents. Something is amiss little brother. It's not only that, but everywhere I go, I feel like I'm being followed. Do you not sense it?" My eyes drifted from her face and into the sky, which was starting to darken with gray clouds. "Yes, it's someone who knows us very well. Someone we know..." My sister's eyes started to water. "Why can't we just live a normal life for once? Why can't we just be a happy and care-free family like everyone else?!" she screamed. "Because we're not like 'everyone else'. We are members of the phoenix family. We can handle this, Kaiya. I know we can." I comforted my big sister as she had done me so many times before.

Unknown Evil Guy's P.O.V

"Oh, yes Kai. I'm sure you can. That's why I have conducted a better plan in the genius mind of mine. I'll just have to find a way to break you. To make you fell miserable, you know, the pain and sadness of knowing that someone close to you is dying, and it's all...your...fault. Don't worry Kai, you'll be sorry for what you did to me. I promise you, you WILL BE SORRY!!!" And the figure laughed like no laugh ever heard. This one was filled with pure hatred and evil.

End Chapter

R n' R please. It's not too much to ask for is it? No? I didn't think so. Oh yeah, this probably won't be updated in about another month. I have came across a REALLY bad school problem. I have to raise my math grade. So, please accept my apologies and continue on with your life for about a month. Maybe less. Till next time.
