Chapter 3- Lanara (La-Nair-A)

"Kai, where did you go?" Tyson asked as Kai walked back to them. "Where's Kathern? Isn't she going to finish the other part of our match?" Kai whirled toward him and struck him in the nose with his fist. "Do you always have to think about yourself?" He asked angrily. "You just don't seem to get that the world doesn't revolve around you!" He pulled his fist back again. "Kai." Ray stepped between them. "Don't hit Tyson. I know that he's really annoying but he doesn't deserve to be hit for it." Kai turned away. When he looked back again, his eyes were still angry, but they had sorrow in them too. " I have things to do." He said, and walked off towards his home.

The next day as Kathern made her way to her class she was bombarded by Tyson. "Hey where did you go yesterday, and why did you go?" He asked. Kathern pushed past him. "Forget it Tyson." She answered. Tyson followed her down the hall. "Kathern." He whined. "Just tell me." Kathern turned around with her fist raised and was about to strike when she noticed for the first time that he had a nose cast. "What happened to you?" She asked. Tyson glowered. "Kai hit me." He finally answered. Kathern tried to hold in her laughter. "Excuse me." She said, and ran down the hall toward the classroom. She made it halfway then broke up. 'Kathern...' Flamer said in her head. 'I know, I know. Be nice.' Kathern answered. 'But it's hard at times.' Flamer growled inside her head and her blade vibrated. Kathern shrugged and walked the rest of the way to her classroom. She sat down beside Kenny. "Hi Kathern." Kenny said. Kathern nodded to him and turned back toward the front of the class. Moments later Tyson walked in with Ray and Max. Kathern nodded to them as they greeted her. Her blade vibrated again. Kathern looked up and saw Kai walking in the door. She stiffened as he walked past her. He glared at her out of the corner of his eye. She glared back and turned toward the teacher, pretending that she was listening. She would go home right after school. To her dad.

At 3:00 as Kathern wound through the groups of laughing teenagers and reached her locker, Tyson and Max bombarded her with questions. "What is it between you and Kai?" Max asked. "Everytime you come around he goes all weird." Kathern shook her head. "I don't know what you're talking about." She answered. "You know, Kathern, you just won't tell us!" Tyson said. Kathern gave him a peircing look. "Even if I knew what you were talking about, I probably wouldn't tell you anyway." Tyson looked hurt. "I have to go." Kathern said. and she turned down the hallway to the door.

The next day (Saturday) Flamer and Kathern walked through the park woods. Suddenly Flamer growled and disapeared. 'Someone is coming!' She telegraphed to Kathern. Kathern spun around and saw the Blade Breakers minus Kai coming toward her on the path. "Hey, Kathern!" Tyson yelled. Kathern walked toward them. "Hey guys." She greeted them. "Hi Kathern." Kenny said. "Hey, Kathern, want to finish that duel?" Tyson asked. Kathern shook her head. "I have to get home." She said quickly as she saw Kai walking down the trail. She turned and disapeared into the trees. "What is up with her?" Max asked. "Don't know." Tyson shrugged. "Come on." They all ran down the path toward the dueling dishes.

Kathern opened the sliding glass backdoor and stepped into the cool shade of the house. "Is it warm out there?" Her father asked. Kathern nodded. "Burning." She answered. "I'm going down into the basement, okay?" Her father nodded. Kathern walked down the steps into the cold air conditioned basement and sat on one of the many oversized silk pet-pillows covering the floor. She curled up like a cat and stared out the window into the sun. "Flamer, come out." Flamer appeared beside her and lay down on the blue pillow beside her with her head on Katherns shoulder. Kathern smiled and fell asleep.

"Kathern." Her father shook her shoulder. "Wake up." Kathern opened her eyes. "You have company." Her father said. Kathern nodded and stood up. She followed her father up the stairs and onto the backporch, where Tyson, Max, Kenny, and Ray stood waiting. "Hi." Ray said. "Hi." Kathern answered. "So what do you want?" Ray looked around at the others and shrugged. "Well, someone came and asked us where they could find you." Kathern narrowed her eyes. "Who was it?" She asked. "It was me." Came a voice from behind her. Kathern spun around and saw the person she thought that she would never see again. "Lanara!" The blond stepped forward to meet her and they grasped eachothers arms. "I thought you were still at the abby." Kathern said. Lanara shook her head. "Nope." I escaped just after you with Rain." Kathern smiled. "Come in." She said and beckoned the Blade Breakers and Lanara into her house.
