In the last chapter of Emptiness:
(("You've got mail," Dizzi's voice called Kenny as he opened his ever- present laptop.
"Who is it from Chief?" Tyson inquired.
Kenny clicked on the "Open Mail" button and read the address.
His face turned white.))
(("Isn't someone going to tell the Balkov girl that we're meeting somewhere else?" Spencer asked before getting into bed.
"We'll inform her tomorrow morning,"))
(("I will avenge my family Kai Hiwatari."
"What does it mean?" Max asked with his head cocked to one side.
"Wonder who it is?" Ray said inspecting the letter again, "Do you know?" he turned to the blue-haired boy.
Kai just stared at the screen.
"Uh..Kai?" Tyson said waving his hand in front of his friend.
Could it be? No, it can't its just a - a joke that's it. ))

Chapter Eleven: Reminiscence
Four shadows moved within the halls of Balkov Abbey.
"We'll just need to tell the Balkov girl where to meet us now," Spencer said as they headed down to hall to the junior dormitories.
"There's no need," Tala said, but regretted saying it right afterwards, "Forget it,"
"You are acting unusual Tala," Bryan observed, he had an eyebrow raised.
"Forget it," Tala said more menacingly and looked at the other three boys with his ice-cold aqua eyes.
His companions turned around and continued down the hall; they knew that catching Tala in a bad mood wasn't the smartest thing to do.
"We're coming to get you," he transmitted his message, hoping that Kazuki's receiver was on.
Kazuki didn't reply.
Before Tala could send another message, they had arrived in front of Kazuki's door.
"We're here," Tala informed Kazuki again.
Bryan reached out to open the door.
"Don't come in right now," Kazuki transmitted.
Tala reached out and grabbed Bryan's wrist to stop him from opening the door.
Bryan looked up, puzzled.
"We should knock first," Tala said dismissively.
His light purple-haired comrade nodded and knocked three times on the door.
The other two boys looked at Tala in a bemused kind of way. They had never thought that knocking was ever necessary as they rank very high in the abbey.
"Don't open the door, I'll be right there," Kazuki shouted from behind the door. There was a muffled sound and the door opened.
Kazuki was standing in the doorway with her clothes on hastily, as if she was in a hurry to finish dressing.
"What?" she demanded.
"We're training at a new site," Ian told her.
"I know," Kazuki absentmindedly replied, tugging at her left sleeve.
"You do?" Spencer asked with uncertainty apparent on his face.
"Well, I do now!" she growled.
The boys stared at her with raised eyebrows.
"What?" Kazuki said. She had always had on an appearance of composedness no matter what situation she was in ever since her mother had died.
"Let's just go now, we've wasted enough time," Tala said trying to save Kazuki from further embarrassment.
The other boys followed silently and Kazuki followed behind them after closing the door to her room, hiding a knife tinted in the blood puddle on the center of the floor.
----------
Kai walked down the streets of Edinburgh in a daze.
Pictures flooded his mind.
A woman smiled at him and laughed.
The same woman knelt beside him and comforted him.
The last picture woke Kai up: a woman lying on a stretcher with blood running down her face.
A pair of red-gloved hands curled into fists.
"Anna," he whispered, "I never meant it,"
Now that he had remembered the woman, Kai was sure that someone related to the woman had sent him the e-mail.
"So she remembered," Kai said to himself, "I know it would happen eventually. But I thought Boris would've told her sooner,"
Not watching where he was going, Kai bumped into something.
He looked up to see a man standing in front of him.
