Hey everyone! Thanks for joining me once again! And thanks also for all the encouragement I got for this chapter. It was very hard to write, because most of it was filler. Next chapter should be good though.

Incidentally, only one person noticed, or no one else found it interesting enough to comment, but at the end of the last chapter, right before the kiss scene, Kai called Tyson 'Tyson'. EVERONE else calls him 'Takao', remember?

Oh well. No harm done. Just remember, if you see something like that again, note it, or tell me or something. It might be a mistake, but, chances are it was meant to be like that, and I'd put it in intentionally. SO, note discrepancies!

Ok, now to reviewer replies:

Viper – That's for me to know, isnt it? ^_^

The Owner of TO – Tykaness, as you put it? We'll just have to see, wont we? *grins* Such fun!

Crosby – Oh, don't die! If you do, you wont get to read this update!

Shadow Cat17 – Tala smiling is sorta scary, isnt it? Eh… I sorta failed my finals… whoops. Spent too much time reading/writing. My bad. But, I'm doing a different course now, so that's cool.

Scarlet Witch 41 – Thanks, and no, your reviews werent annoying me. I like getting reviews anyway.

SquirrelOfShadows – Sorry I took so long to update. And Thanks for reviewing.

Star's Dreams – Thanks. I'm glad you like it. Here's the next chapter for you! And thanks for putting me on your favs list!

Digigirl – Hey, everyone's entitled to their own opinions, but since the whole thing was set up by Voltaire, your reaction was the one he was expecting, and hoping Tyson would have. You know, separate Tyson further from his team. But anyway, thanks for the review.

Hobgoblin – Sorry I couldn't get any more done before I moved. But, I do have a new chapter for you. As for the last chapter not being what you expected, what did you expect, if you don't mind me being nosy?

Kiina – I've continued! I swear I have!

B.B.G and Kenzy-Chan – Thanks. Here's the next chapter!

Timberwolf220 – Here! New chapter, as asked. Kai is quite possessive, isnt he?

Skittles the Sugar Fairy – Next chapter coming up! Glad you enjoyed the last chapter.

Raven's Light – Thanks. Here's the update.

Nanashi2 – I'm glad you had the patience to wait for this. And I'm really sorry it took so long to come out. As for the pairing, you'll just have to wait and see what I decide to put! I already know, or at least have some idea of what I'm going to do. ^_^

F.A Star Hawk – You know, you were the only one who picked up on the fact that something was wrong with what Kai called Tyson/Takao. Kudos! Congrats!

Dragi – Thanks. Here's the next chapter, and I hope you didn't have to wait too long for it.

Yoh Asakura – Thanks. And I'd be pretty pissed off with Voltaire too. Hmm… have to think of an appropriate punishment for him… hmm…

Arashi Doragon – Hey, aren't you from the OTKH group? I'm sure I've seen your name somewhere! And stop hitting your head on the wall! It hurts! See? *hits head* …itai… Ooh now I'm dizzy…. It's a good thing I do review replies last, isnt it? Cos, with the headache I just gave myself (I missed the wall and hit the corner of it instead, silly me), I don't think I could write the whole story!

Tinanit Enozym – Same question as above, are you from the OTKH group? Sorry about how long it took. I'm really slow sometimes in updating. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

TechnoRanma – O_O I can advertise fics? Isnt that like… boasting? And, it isnt that good anyway. Your fics are better – way better. I love Impossible, it's wonderful! And that last chapter of it was well worth the wait!

Joce – wrong line? I think Kai disagrees with that! Here's the update!

Special Mentions go to F.A Star Hawk for noticing the name thingy X_X you all know what I meant! Don't you?

Disclaimer – I don't own a thing in this chapter. Oh, wait, yes I do! *lawyers come in* NOOOO that's not what I meant! I don't own the show or any of the characters in it! I only own Ranulf Koailt, and the secretary who I didn't bother to give a name because chances are we wont see her again. I think. I hope. We probably wont see Ranulf again either, but I had to give him a name since he introduced himself.

NOTE: IMPORTANT!!!! READ PLEASE!

~*~*~ means a change in scenery or time in a world. It can be either the fake world or the real one.

However, if you see this ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~, then that means it's a change in worlds, ie, from the FakeWorld to the RealWorld and back again. Also, it is only EVER Tyson's POV in the Dream World. No one else.

Ok. Enough of my ramblings. (For Now. There's a little more at the bottom of the page.) On with the story.

Chapter 5

The shock Tyson felt as Kai kissed him wore off quickly, and he pushed the slightly older boy off him.

"What are you doing?" he demanded, ducking under Kai's arms, which had tried to pin him again.

"What does it look like I'm doing, Tyson?"

"Well, if I knew that, I wouldn't have asked, would I?" Tyson shot back, glaring at Kai. He froze suddenly, his eyes going wide. 'Tyson! He called me Tyson!' he thought frantically. 'Tyson, not Takao!'

Kai took advantage of his stunned state, and resumed his previous activity.

"Kai!"

Kai looked up, growling softly. His crimson eyes narrowed as they landed on Tala, who stood in the gateway, staring down at the two. Without a single word being said, Kai let go of Tyson, and stood in front of him, placing himself between Tyson and Tala. Tyson could almost see the distrust racing between them as they stared at each other.

"Why are you here, Tala?" Kai said, spitting the name like a curse.

"I could be asking you the same question, Kai," Tala said, his eyes raking over Tyson, who was still behind Kai, "but what I really want to know is what you were doing to my charge."

"Your charge?" Kai asked, disbelief colouring his words. "Since when has Tyson ever wanted anything to do with you?"

Tala's expression softened. "Kai, that isn't Tyson," he said softly.

"Like hell it isn't!" Kai shouted, gripping Tyson's arm painfully and pulling him in front. "Have you even bothered to look at him? It's Tyson!"

"Kai!" Tyson yelped, wincing, "You're hurting me, let go!"

Kai didn't reply, just kept staring at Tala. Tyson managed to wrench his arm from Kai's grip, and took a couple of steps away from him, unintentionally putting himself even further from Tala. He stood, rubbing his sore arm, waiting for the clash that he was sure would come from the two in front of him, while also trying to get a hold on the situation.

Kai had called him Tyson, when everyone else called him Takao. Could it be that Kai thought he was his brother, the one who died, and the one who Kai had been battling when he died? But then why would he kiss him?

Or could this Kai be from the real world, the one he was from, and his friends were looking for him? But again, why would he kiss him? As far as Tyson knew, Kai didn't even like him like that.

"I don't know what you've done to my boyfriend, but I want you to go, and never speak to him again!"

"B-boyfriend?" Tyson stuttered in shock, hearing Kai's words to Tala.

The words caused both teenagers to look at him. Tala caught his eye.

"Takao, I want you to go back to the house, and let yourself in. I'll be there shortly. I need to talk to Kai."

Tyson nodded at Tala's words, but not really hearing them. He edged around the two older teens, then practically ran the whole way home.

What had happened back there? And what was wrong with Kai?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It had been a week. One long, tiring week since Tyson had been kidnapped by Voltaire.

The BladeBreakers were still under the pretence of being quarantined, but somehow Kai had managed to get a flight to Russia. He had an idea of who he needed to talk to, and where to find him.

He was hunting Demolition Boys.

~*~*~

Kai stood looking at the spot where the Abbey had once stood. Once it had come to light what had been happening to the children in there, there had been a public outcry, with millions demanding that the Abbey be demolished. The government had been forced agreed with the people or risk a massive backlash which could have had the current government removed from office. Only a few months after the protests began, a new building was taking shape. There were construction signs all around the block of land, and a large sign proclaiming that a new shopping complex was being built there. Kai snorted, but continued on his way, heading for a nearby law firm. He had it on good authority that Tala now worked there, as an intern, and he was determined to see the red-haired boy.

~*~*~

The young woman behind the desk looked at him as he came in. "May I help you?" she asked politely in Russian. Kai replied in the same language.

"I'd like to speak to Tala Pilokoauf. It's urgent," he added, seeing the girl look away uncomfortably.

"I'm sorry, but Tala isn't receiving any visitors at the moment," she said.

"Fine. Then I need to speak to the Managing Director of the firm."

"He's in a meeting. I'm afraid you'll have to wait for him."

Kai nodded and took at seat.

~*~*~

"You wanted to speak to me?" Kai looked up, startled, before his eyes darted to the clock that hung on the wall. Over an hour had passed since he asked to speak to Tala, and then the Managing Director.

"And you are?" he asked the tall man in front of him.

"Ranulf Koailt," the man replied, holding out a hand, "I'm one of the senior partners of the firm," he explained.

Kai took the hand offered. "I'm looking for Tala Pilokoauf."

Ranulf frowned. "I was unaware Tala had done anything wrong."

"You are aware," Kai began, choosing his words carefully, "that Tala used to work for Hiwatari?" there was no need to say his grandfather's first name, everyone knew who he was.

"Yes, of course. That was one of the reasons we took him in, to try and give him a normal life. Is there a reason you are looking for Tala?" Ranulf's voice held the slightest amount of accusation.

"I'm not saying he's done anything wrong," Kai was quick to assure the man, "but he may have some information we need about Hiwatari's whereabouts."

"I understand," Ranulf said, his tone changing considerably, "we all want to see that madman go back behind bars, after what he put our children through,"

"Would I be able to arrange a private meeting with Tala?"

"I don't see why not," Ranulf replied. "He's on his break at the moment, but he should be back soon," Ranulf said, looking at the clock. "In fact, he should be back in about ten minutes. You're welcome to wait," he offered.

"Thank you."

~*~*~

Tala hated many things in life – Tyson Granger, Voltaire Hiwatari and Kai Hiwatari were the top three, though not necessarily in that order. Luckily, or so Tala believed, he had not met up with any of the three since the World Championships seven months ago, or spoken to them either.

But somehow he wasn't surprised to see Kai waiting for him when he finished his break. Nothing else had gone right today, at least with meeting or seeing people he hated – why should this?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tyson looked at the calender that hung on the wall, smiling. It was a full moon tonight.

And that meant he would get to speak to his mother. Maybe she could tell him what was going on.

~Owaru - for now

Yay! Another chapter done. Oh, if anyone wants to try, I have a competition about to start. Whoever can guess the person who killed Takao's brother gets a dedication for the next chapter; a small, but important role in the fic; and the next chapter early! So, start thinking – Who killed Takao's brother?

I'll give clues!

it's a male he has a bit beast he's a character from the show, so he isn't made up.

One more thing. It's been just under a month in the dream/fake world Tyson is in, while it's been a week in the real world. I'll try to keep the time lines working in the same way – a month in the FakeWorld equals a week in the RealWorld.
