Chapter six – Uncertainty

***

"Weird" he muttered as he leaned the map which just moved by itself. Suddenly, he jumped back, his hand covering his mouth, eyes wide open.

"Impossible." he mumbled and looked again at the map. It didn't change - or more exactly, the thing that surprised him so didn't change. He walked over to the map and realised that the little figurines were actually Bit-beast models.

"Cool" he whispered and looked for his bit-beast, Wolborg, which was spotted in a tiny area. The area was where he was right now... the museum... "I wonder... does this map show where the holders of the bit-beasts are?"

With that idea in mind, he started to search for others, such as his team mate's. There *was* a figurine of an elegant white dragon on it - and of course in a place where it would be the most dangerous. Just his rotten luck! It was on some mountain - steep one from what it seemed. But he was not going to give up - he started looking for a pen and some paper. He would go there and he would obtain the bit-beast... Not to mention a certain blue-haired 'blader.

"Yes, I'll do it for my love, Tyson... the one and only! And then Kai... muahahahahaha..."

The redhead jotted the place down and turned to leave the room but he thought he heard a sound. His eyes widened as he realised, that it must be the staff.

Panicking, he tried to find a place to hide, but it was too late. The door had been opened and two men stared at the horror-stricken teenager.

After a second one of them asked: "What are you doing here young man?"

"Er... umm... I was er… browsing the museum?" The nervous teen replied with a frowning grin... "But since I figured that there's nothing much in here, I better leave to see other stuff" And just as Tala tried to walk out of the room, the angry staff, with hands on their hips, stopped him.

"You're not going anywhere, young man. Since this area is non-permitted to visitors, we'll have to punish you"

And Tala shuddered at the word "punish" again. This time, he decided, he'll defend himself rather than making excuses.

"But but... What the big deal anyway? There are just tonnes of old books, a computer and a bit-beast tracking map--- Oops..."

"That's it, you know too much."

Shit, shit, the teen cursed in his mind. Him and his big mouth...

He had no way of getting out, because the two blocked the door and there were no windows. Unfortunately, if he tried to fight them he'd be in big trouble. Think, Tala think - he urged himself. There must be a way; there always is a way...

"LET IT RIP!!!" He yelled out as he launched his trusty Beyblade.

The two men flinched and moved out of the way. Tala, taking this as an advantage, slipped through the two men. Before he left entirely, he called out, "Don't mess with me... Or else!" then ran right out of that dark room, and out of the museum.

He ran to a safe place and mused about Tyson. 'If he saw how cool I was, he would've fallen for me right there and then."

It was a wonder, he still liked Kai. Tala was much better looking, smarter and definaltely had a better taste. Yes. The Russian was very pleased with himself and just couldn't stop gloating mentally.

"Okay okay, don't get over-confident. I got to really get to that Mountain... wassit called? Oh... Mt Platinum... and get that beauty for Tyson... then we'll see who's talking, Kai!"

Meanwhile, Kai wasn't wasting his time either. First he borrowed Dizzy from Kenny and tried to find something via Internet, but the digitalized bit-beast was bugging him to much. After some unfruitful research he decided to go to a library - maybe there would be something?

"Hmph," smirked the older teen, and he started to walk off.

"Wait Kai! Where are you going" The 'geek-boy' (as Kai refers Kenny to) called.

"Hmph" Kai, nowhere to be seen, smirked again. 'I don't need a bunch of moron's help' he thought quietly to himself.

Kenny sighed, wondering how Tyson could like such a person. He wondered what he was up to. Tala also disappeared this morning. The short boy sighed again.

"Oh well" he shrugged and wandered off. 'Who cares about their private lives anyway?'

Kai, out in the snowy weather, was running to the library to find information on the so-called unknown "Hikari Tatsu"

...

"Does it even exist?" Kai questioned himself. But why would Tyson lie to him? What if he was dating somebody else and wanted to get rid of him? Like Rei? Or Zeo? Or Max? Or even Kenny?

ARGH!

"No way!" He yelled, and everybody surrounding him turned to face his way. Some were mumbling about "mental" or something. But Kai couldn't care less.

'But on the other hand... what if he's not lying? What's worse, Tala could well be on his way to obtaining that magical Bit-beast."

ARGH!

"No way!" He yelled and people around him fled, thinking he *is* a madman.

The pale teen felt a surge of motivation and started running to the library, while people ducked out of his way, convinced he was a madman on loose. He didn't even notice to busy fearing his little angel would be taken by that annoying redhead.

"I won't lose to you Tala, NEVER! I WILL KILL YOU!"

And of course, that outburst caused the cops nearby to get suspicious.

"Hey you," one of the officers yelled but Kai took no notice and continued his mission. The officer thought about chasing the boy, but decided against it, only murmuring "Kids these days."

Meanwhile, the slate-haired adolescent reached his destination - the public library. He hurriedly rushed in with the same furious look. This, of course, attracted attention.

'Is it just me, or is the world looking at me wherever I go?' Kai shook his head.

Without a warning, a teen dashed in front of him, accidentally bumping into him. Kai was about to curse when he found that the boy was actually Wyatt.

Was he being finally lucky? Wyatt could help him, couldn't he? So busy he was with mental gloating that he didn't notice that the brown-haired boy was blushing and had a very dreamy look. Kai stood up and dragged the other boy to his feet.     

"You have to help me." he stated.
