Destiny of the Descendants

Disclaimer: See earlier chapters.

I'm sorry if I offend anyone with my version of Tyson. I don't really like him and try to leave him out of my stories.

While the Saint Shields and 4 Bladebreakers had been realising there was more to the run-down warehouse than there seemed, one Bladebreaker had been quite lonely. Tyson just wanted some company. He knew they were looking for Sora, but... it was so silent he wanted to lay down and go to sleep. He hated to admit it, but it was all his fault he was wandering around this place alone. He had put Sora in danger. And he was to blame for Ray and him splitting up... Now he wished he hadn't been so damn cocky.

~~Flashback~~

"Careful, Tyson, we don't know what could be in here." The two boys stood at a fork in the hallway, staring down each one.

Tyson scoffed. "Nothing will stop me!! Besides, Sora's in trouble," he added, almost tauntingly.

"We should still take caution. We've gone rushing into traps before," Ray replied wisely.

The boy laughed defiantly. "Come and get me, trap! A Bladebreaker is in need!" Tyson just wished that he had a sword to look more a hero.

"Okay, since you're so worried," Ray cried impatiently, with a hint of anger. "Let's split up. We're wasting time here!"

"Fine!" Tyson called confidently. More fame when he saved the world as usual.

"Well, then... ok. Uh... okay. Bye." Ray walked down the right fork without even a backward glance.

Tyson smirked after him. "Bye," he sang to Ray's back. Then he cockily began to strut down the left hall.

~~End Flashback~~

And they had never met again since. But now Tyson had broken a supposedly stone wall. He had slipped a piece into his pocket. And now he was staring at something very interesting. Very interesting indeed.

Ozuma walked through the room, glancing at all the unconscious men and broken control panels. There was one panel unaffected. Ozuma stared. Sora was floating in a tube of green liquid. Ozuma frowned at the technology. If only he could use it somehow...

Wait a sec, what was that?

He prodded a green button, and the screen switched to some text document. Ozuma zoomed in to a readable size, then leaned in. It was a long script, a manual on... Oh, my god.

Joseph stirred, then slowly opened his eyes, first seeing blurs. Then, things began to sharpen, and through his headache, he cursed himself for his weakness against heat. He glared at the bright lights built into the wall, the four thick impenetrable walls, the stone-hard bed, and finally, the door that suddenly swung open.

"So, you're the runt that was contaminating my heating ducts. Welcome," he smirked mockingly, "to your new home. Joseph, isn't it? So, I expect my computer system is malfunctioning due to the Saint Shields..." His eyes narrowed. "...And the Bladebreakers... or what's left of them, anyway."

Joseph opened his mouth and closed it again. "Joseph..." His voice was echoing and dark. "I don't like nosy intruders... And you are a nosy intruder."

"Holy... we have to tell the others!" Ray insisted.

"Yes, we'll just tell them by telepathy. Or better yet, we'll just talk to the air and expect that it will carry our message to the right people," Dizzi replied sarcastically.

"She's got a point," Kenny admitted grudgingly. "We can't just tell them... or..."

"Oh no, Chief, a girl could get a virus!"

"We'll have to risk it, whatever it is. This is important," Ray muttered seriously.

"Are you sure this will work?" Dunga was nearly whimpering now.

"Don't worry," Max grinned. "It has to!"

"Really? Why?"

"Um..." Max blushed. "'Cause I said so!"

"Oh great..." Dunga mumbled as he stared down into darkness.

Kai strided quickly through the hallway, Mariam following and pulling her blade and launcher out more with each step.

"Hey," Kai turned so sharply that Mariam almost walked into him. Kai's previous train of thought crashed. "...Why do you have your blade out?" Kai asked suspiciously.

"Uh... just in case, since this place is full of traps."

Kai's eyes narrowed. "And how do you know that?"

"I, um... walked into a few before you showed up."

"Riiiiight," Kai replied disbelievingly. Then he glared. "Are you feeling okay?"

Mariam smiled. "Of course, Kai... why wouldn't I be?" She asked innocently, placing her blade onto her launcher.

"What should we do with the girl?"

"Wait until the boss gets back."

"But, ma'am, we could start now and it would be f..a..faster..." His last word drifted off as the woman glared.

"You. Are. Not. To. Do. ANYTHING. Without the boss's direct orders. Do you understand?"

The man nodded meekly, wide-eyed.

"I said..." The woman repeated calmly, dangerously, "Do... you... understand?!"

"Y-Yes, ma'am!!" He rushed away to spread the order.

The woman smiled after him. This was fun. But it was time to get back to business.
