CHAPTER 4:
SURPRISES
"Are you alright?" came a voice.
Kai opened his eyes and met the gaze of a redhead.
"Tala?!" Kai exclaimed, surprised.
"Let me explain." Tala announced. "After my battle with Tyson, I decided to leave Balcov abbey. I realized that I was just wasting my time and energy there. I flew to Japan to start anew and turn away from my past in Russia. Mr. Dickenson saw me kicking cans on the street and approached me. I told him everything and he said he could get me a place to stay. I asked if there was anything I could do for him and he said there was."
"What was that?" Kai asked.
"There's going to be a new tournament next month." Tala answered. "Mr. Dickenson has already confirmed that Voltaire's up to something. He asked me if I could sneak into his mansion and collect any documents about his plan. I agreed. That was something I can do easily." he added smirking.
"But.?" Kai said, urging him to continue.
"I was making my way to the back door when I heard a crash and saw you jump out the window. Then I immediately saw Voltaire's men coming. I hid in a nearby bush as they surrounded you. When I saw all the cuts you had, I decided to help you. So I threw these things..." he said, showing Kai olive-green pellets. "These let out a foul smell that causes people nearby to faint. When everyone fainted, I carried you here." he finished. "I doubt that anyone will find us here." he added looking around the forest-like backyard of the Hiwatari's.
"It's not as if anybody actually bothers coming here." Kai replied. He looked away and muttered a quick 'thanks'.
"I owed you guys." Tala replied.
"It's over here!" a voice rang out.
"No it's not!" another voice came. "It's this way!"
"I think those are your teammates." Tala told Kai.
"I think you're right." Kai replied.
"I have to go." Tala said, standing up and walking away. "Bye."
Kai watched him disappear.
"KAI!!" someone shouted.
"There you are!!" Kenny exclaimed.
"What happened to you?!" Max yelled.
"And don't you dare say 'nothing'" Tyson added.
"It's none of your business, Tyson." Kai told him.
"Tell us.!" Tyson ordered.
"Nag him later, Tyson." Ray told him. "We need to get Kai to a hospital right now.
"."
"Can you walk, Kai?" Ray asked kindly.
"Yeah." Kai replied
"Don't pretend to be so tough, Kai! How can we believe you can walk?!" Tyson said eyeing his teammate's current condition.
"I'm fine." Kai told him, irritated.
"You have a million and one cuts, Kai!" Max stated.
Kai just walked away.
"C'mon, guys." Ray said following Kai.
The others quietly followed him.
Sidewalk.
"Let us help you, Kai!" Max said.
"I'm fine." Kai repeated for the thousandth time, though he didn't mean it.
Just then, a limo stopped in front of them and an old man peered out the window.
"Boys! What happened?!" the old man exclaimed. "Get in!" he added, opening the door of his limo.
"Thanks, Mr. Dickenson." Kenny told him.
"To the BBA office, James." Mr. Dickenson ordered.
"Do you mind telling me what happened?" he asked Kai.
Kai sighed and told him everything that had happened.
Clinic (BBA office)
"Tsk, tsk, tsk." muttered the old nurse in the clinic. "What did you do to yourself?!" without waiting for an answer, she added "Kids these days.!"
Kai rolled his eyes and remained silent.
An office in the BBA.
"Is it agreed, then?" Mr. Dickenson asked a couple of men.
They nodded.
"Good."
A few minutes later.
The clinic door opened and a man stepped in.
"Hello Mr. Dickenson!" greeted the nurse.
Mr. Dickenson smiled at her. "How's Kai?"
"I fixed him up already." the nurse replied. "The poor dear.He's got cuts all over and a deep one in his leg. I doubt that he'll be able to walk properly." she said throwing a pitiful look at Kai.
Kai ignored the nurse and walked out the clinic leaving the nurse stunned.
Mr. Dickenson just chuckled.
Outside.
Kai found his teammates waiting for him. Tyson was fooling around again while Kenny frantically tried to stop his sugar rush.
"Kai!" Tyson shouted and as usual, Kai just ignored him.
"I'm surprised you don't look like a mummy right now!" Tyson exclaimed. "With all the cuts you had, I was pretty sure you would have as many bandages as a-I'm just kidding!" he said, seeing the look Kai was giving him "Sheesh!"
Kai leaned against the wall in his usual position.
"Sourpuss." Tyson muttered and Kai ignored him once again.
Mr. Dickenson stepped out of the clinic.
"Hey, Mr. D!" Max greeted.
Mr. Dickenson smiled.
"Are you boys spending the afternoon at Tyson's?" he asked.
"Yup!" Max replied.
Mr. Dickenson nodded and said: "My driver will take you there."
"Cool!"
Mr. Dickenson chuckled then turned to Tyson and Kai. " I need talk to you for a while boys."
At Tyson's house.
"Home sweet home!" Tyson shouted.
"Let's party!" Max exclaimed.
"Bring on the food!" Tyson shouted again.
Everyone sweat-dropped.
"It's going to be a fun evening!" Tyson said. "Right, Kai?!"
"Hm." Kai replied, coldly. 'I can't believe this!' he thought. 'Just 'coz Voltaire kidnapped me, Mr. Dickenson had to dump me here! "For your own safety" he says! Whatever! Now I have to see Tyson's ugly face everyday! God! What did I do to deserve this?!"
That night.Dinnertime in particular.
"Where's Kai?" Ray asked.
"He won't come out of his room." Tyson replied, biting off a piece of his chicken.
"Why?" Max asked.
"Because he's Kai." Tyson replied again.
They laughed.
"Let's just leave him alone-" Tyson said.
"Are you sure you're Tyson?" Max interrupted.
"I'll pester him tomorrow." Tyson replied.
"That's more like it!" Max exclaimed.
A few hours later.
"You're leaving already?!" Tyson cried.
"It's late Tyson." Max said.
"We have to get home already." Ray added.
"Same here." Kenny said.
"You're leaving me alone?! With Kai?!" Tyson exclaimed.
"Sorry, buddy." Ray said.
"We'll write to you everyday! Ok?!" Max added.
"Alright.See 'ya guys!" Tyson replied. "Have a safe trip!"
Then his three friends left.
Morning.
"Hi, Kai!" Tyson yelled.
"I'm not deaf Tyson." Kai told him, coldly.
"."
"So.uh.what were you up to last night?" Tyson asked, trying to start a conversation.
"None of your business."
"If you don't wanna' talk, then fine!" Tyson pouted. "I'll leave you alone." he added walking away. "I need to practice sword-fighting anyway."
"So go already." Kai said, cruelly.
"You are so-" Tyson said losing his temper. "I challenge you to a sword- fight!"
Kai just walked away.
"Scared?!" Tyson asked.
Kai stopped walking but didn't turn around to face him. "Reverse psychology doesn't work on me, Tyson" he told Tyson. "I have better things to do than play with sticks."
"You're just scared! You know I'll beat you!"
"You wish." Kai shot back as he continued to walk away.
"I'm gonna' get you Kai!" Tyson called after him.
Later that afternoon.
Kai sat under a tree, deep in thought. So much was troubling him Voltaire and Tyson especially. But his mind drifted to the World Championship Finals instead. He was still wondering what exactly happened. What did Dranzer just do? What was the answer behind this mystery?
He closed his eyes but immediately re-opened them when he heard a twig break. Someone was there.
"Hiya!"
Kai moved and narrowly missed getting hit by a bamboo stick.
"Curse you, Tyson!"
"Let's fight!" Tyson said coming out and throwing a sword at Kai.
Without waiting for an answer, he charged towards Kai.
Tyson was about to hit Kai's head with his bamboo sword but Kai easily dodged his attack.
"Hiya!" Tyson tries to attack again but Kai grabs his sword and breaks it in half.
"My sword!!" Tyson cried.
"Stupid idiant." Kai said walking away.
Kai made his way back to the house. He was about to open the front door when the doorbell rang.
He opened the gate but saw no one.
However, he saw an envelope on the floor. The envelope had his name on it. He picked it up and opened it. Inside was a short letter that said: To Kai Hiwatari, please meet me at the weeping willow in the city park tomorrow at noon time. Please come. It's very urgent.
Kai folded the letter and put it back in the envelope. 'Is Voltaire trying to trap me?' he thought. 'I don't care. I need an excuse to get out of here anyway.'
Next day.
"There's the weeping willow." Kai told himself as he walked over to a tree. "Nobody here."
He leaned against the trunk of the tree and looked around. He didn't see any of Voltaire's men. He didn't even see anybody in a uniform.
Then two girls approached him. One with black hair in a high pony and the other with short purple hair.
"Are you Kai Hiwatari?" the one with black hair asked him.
"Why?" Kai asked her.
"I'm the one who wrote to you." The girl replied. "My name's Meia and this is Marianne." She said introducing herself and the girl beside her.
"What do you want?" Kai asked again.
"During the World Championships your Bit-Beast mysteriously turned the entire stadium into ice, right?" she said. "Though it's element is fire.?"
Kai raised an eyebrow. "So what?"
The girl took a deep breath and replied, "I think I know exactly what happened."
