In the last chapter of Emptiness:
(("I knew this seemed a little too easy," Kai frowned as a password window popped up.
Kai thought for a while before typing in a few letters.
The computer paused for a minute and Kai held his breath.
"Password Accepted" the computer said and Kai smiled.))
(("Changer, I've found you," Kai smiled and was about to click on the button when he sensed someone standing behind him.
Turning around, Kai glared at the intruder.
"You?" Kai said surprised and stood up straight.
The girl looking at him smiled and said, "You were expecting someone else?"))
(("Shatei.."
Her eyes came back to focus and without a backward glance, she threw her Beyblade to Tala, who caught it instinctively, and cautiously walked on the cracked ice towards Ian, who was now desperately trying to chip the ice with his rifle shooter.
CRACK!
With a final crack, the ice broke loose and Ian was submerged underneath the freezing mass of liquid.
Not thinking twice, Kazuki followed Ian into the glacial water with a dive.))
((She pulled Ian's face up and swam with one hand towards the other boys.
The astounded boys just stared as the girl emerged in front of them with Ian. She was dripping wet from the water but she didn't seem to be freezing.
Dumping the boy onto Spencer, she took her Beyblade from Tala's hands, and muttered a quick, "He should watch himself," before leaving the boys staring after her.))
(("Dizzy and I have found out where the e-mail was sent from," Kenny corrected himself as Dizzy gave a satisfied, "Mm-hm"
Kai tensed at the mention of the upsetting e-mail, "Who?" was his simple question, but he could almost guess the answer.
"You may not like the answer," Kenny started and looked nervously at Kai.
Kai returned his gaze with a glare from his fiery-red eyes.
"Gulp. Well, the signal Dizzy had traced back said it was from Russia.." he trailed off, not wanting to finish.
"BIOVOLT,"))

Chapter Fifteen: Error
Kazuki was sitting on her small bed staring at her distorted reflection in her shattered mirror.
"Why did I do that?" Kazuki asked herself. She had saved a complete stranger and put her own life in danger to do it.
Actually, her life wasn't in danger, but that is not the point.
Whey did she save Ian?
The answer was bothering her: Alexander.
Shatei..
Had she confused Ian for Alexander? Maybe.
But there was not resemblance between the two at all.
Maybe it was because she had missed having a brother. It had been eight months since her little oniichan had been taken from her.
Kazuki stopped thinking about the subject and lay down to rest.
She couldn't take the emotions that were supposed to have disappeared from inside her to come back again.
----------
"She brought me back up?" Ian asked as he sat on his bed with his ragged sheets around his shoulders.
Tala nodded as he sat by a window watching the moon.
"What caused her to become the heroine all of a sudden?" Ian asked in disbelief.
"As if anyone would know," Spencer assured him.
"She would," Bryan corrected.
"I'm not so sure of that," Tala suddenly said to himself, but the others heard him.
They looked at him in surprise.
"Forget it," Tala said and looked back at the full moon hanging in the sky.
"You seem to know her better than we do," Bryan pointed out.
Tala angered at that, slitting his icy blue eyes and showing his fangs.
To the other three boys, he resembled his bit beast, a vicious snow wolf.
"Probably because you can sense things that we can't," Ian mended, hoping the older boy would calm down.
Spencer cleared his throat uncomfortably and walked towards the door.
Tala watched his blonde teammate's every move with his icy blue eyes, daring him to mention Kazuki again.
Bryan shrugged and followed after Spencer with a, "Like it matters that much,"
At last, Tala turned his attention back to the window.
Ian had already lain down on his bed, trying to find as much warmth as possible with his thin, torn blanket.
Tala, looking over at the boy who hadn't yet recovered from the lake incident, involuntarily walked over to his bed, grabbed his own tattered blanket and draped it over Ian.
Sensing Ian's eyes on him, Tala shrugged and said, "I don't think I'll be sleeping tonight, you might as well use it,"
He turned away before Ian could say another word and walked out of the room.
Down the dark hallway, a slash of light could be seen at one of the abbey's rare windows.
Leaning down on the window, Tala continued his ritual-like stare at the moon.
----------
"I got that one in the bag!" Johnny boasted as he shot a golf ball into its designated hole.
"Boy am I psyched," Jackie said with a glum voice as she sat in the background watching her brother play golf.
"Your turn Jackie," Johnny called to his younger sister.
Jackie got up from her seat and took a deep breath.
She took the golf club that her butler handed her and got ready to shoot.
As she aimed for the hole, she saw Kai watching her from the other side of the field.
Jackie frowned and, instead of concentrating on the hole, concentrated instead at Kai's smirking face.
The golf club hit the golf ball with a whacking sound and shot it a few meters off the ground.
Jackie watched the white speck disappear into the light of the sun and coming back to view.
Thud.
Uh-oh.
The round object had landed directly on a certain blue-haired Bladebreaker's head.
Kai's head, that is.
Jackie snickered but stopped immediately as she saw Kai storming across the vast golf course with an angry expression replacing his usual calm.
The rest of his team was laughing in the background.
She tried to ignore the look that Kai had on his face and looked down at the second golf ball instead.
She didn't notice Kai rounding the fence and coming up behind her.
That was probably why, a second later, another thudding sound could be heard as Jackie accidentally hit the golf club on the lower chin of her pursuer.
A deep growl was heard as Jackie slowly turned around.
Kai stared back at her with a look of murder on his face accompanied with a bruise on his lower chin that he was now rubbing with the back of his hand.
"Got to go!" Jackie half-shouted, half-giggled as she tore out of the golf course at the speed of light.
Kai glared at the next person he saw, Johnny.
Johnny just snickered and called his personal doctor to attend to the bruise.
"You will regret that," Kai thought to himself as he grabbed the pack of ice the doctor offered him and crushed the cubes before they reached his chin.
----------
Kazuki walked down the hall silently.
She couldn't sleep due to her reoccurring nightmares.
No sure where she should go, Kazuki looked up at the moon.
It was full tonight.
Kazuki's gaze shifted across the night sky until they reached one of the rare windows on the east side of the abbey, facing the river.
Standing at the window watching the moon as well was a familiar face.
The girl stared at the red-haired boy's face for some time.
She hoped that somehow, Tala would look back at her.
Wait.
She wasn't supposed to wish for such stupid things, especially if it concerns a michi.
No. She didn't need anybody.
Besides, what would happen if Tala did happen to look back?
Mentally slapping herself, she lowered her gaze and walked towards her rock by the river.
