"I didn't think it was that bad!!!" exclaimed Hilary

"Well it is and we need to do something!"

"I agree Ray, Kai is not as invincible to emotions as he would like us to believe" said Kenny, "question is what do we do?"

Tyson, for once, had an answer, "if he's got stuff to do, then we follow him and find out what it is!"

Everyone could only stare at his short term memory loss.

"Rays tried that idiot!!!" Hilary said, clearly looking for a fight with Tyson. "Kai knew Ray was sneaking up on him!!!"

Max and Ray had to hold back a very red and angry Tyson, shouting at a Hilary who didn't help the matter by obviously ignoring him.

"Guys, stop fighting! I think I have the answer. I've been working on a tracking system that follows the bitbeasts slight energy released by a blade all the time its not in battle, each one is different. All we have to do is follow Dranzer's signal to find out where Kai is going, at a safe distance", Kenny said rather proudly, which was then quickly removed by Dizzi's remark "you've been working on it? What was I doing at the time? Learning to samba?!"

Before another argument occurred Ray suggested they started to find Kai. After a few momements Kenny yelled a eureka, before saying a surprised "he's moving fast! We had better go!"

The kitchen was cleared in five seconds. ~~

Kai never thought he would enjoy running through the streets, but it was giving such a good heady feeling. By having to dodge, jump and duck people, stalls and random objects the pavement, he was getting a really good work out. With his speed and the white scarf streaming behind him, he made an impressive sight. The shops and high buildings gave way to houses, which gave way to far set larger houses and parks. Kai didn't know where he was running to until he was right by the gates. A cloud of dust flew from the gravel road as he stopped abruptly and skidded a little way.

He was outside the gates of his grandfather's mansion. This might be a good place to get some answers, especially since Voltaire had gone missing.

He couldn't go through the gate, not with servants around still, and only a couple of them Kai could trust. The rest were Voltaire's puppets. Good thing he knew his way around the mansion and grounds, it would make this so easy. With that thought he smiled as he walked round till he found the area of wall he knew was a blind spot to the cameras surrounding the grounds. With one leap he had scaled the wall and sat, watching. He would move when the time was right. ~~

The rest of the bladebreakers team had had a few problems keeping a reasonable distance between them and Kai, they had to slow down or speed up depending on Kai's erratic movements. They slowed right down when they got close to the mansion, he had stopped.

"Isn't this Kai's place?" whispered Max

"Yes, and be quite! We don't want him to know we are here!" whispered back a nervous Kenny; this place just couldn't be Kai's! It was huge!

A voice made them all jump.

"You just can't take a hint can you? I said leave me alone!"

They all blushed under Kai's piercing gaze from the top of the wall; they really hadn't meant to get caught.

"Now leave, I have things to do!" and with that Kai jumped down the other side of the wall.

"Well now what do we do!" whined Tyson, it had been a while since he had eaten breakfast; they couldn't expect him to keep going without any food could they? That would be too cruel!

Ray side looked him, "now we wait, i've got a feeling Kai won't be long".

The others sighed and got themselves comfortable sitting against the wall in the shade of an overhanging tree, they hoped Ray was right. ~~

Kai moved through the garden like a shadow. It was good using the skills he had learned in his training, even if he couldn't remember the training. It was like putting on an old glove. He carried on moving till he got to a side door. Looking round carefully, he slowly opened the door. Seeing no one was in the room beyond the door, he crept in. he went through each room carefully, always checking and creeping. The adrenalin pumped through his veins, and he had to control his breathing before he got carried away. That's when he felt it. Something was not right. It hung in the air, where had he felt it before? He tried to shake it off; it was too late to go back now. The next room he walked in to was the huge hallway, the large stairway opposite the equally large front doors. The walls were red trimmed with dark brown wood and gold. Typical décor from his grandfather Kai thought, a sneer on his lips. He walked into the room and stopped in the middle, facing the door.

~~flashback~~ A ten year old Kai pulled up in a limo outside an impressive house. It was raining as he stepped out the car, looking up at the huge front doors. Hands guided him up the stone steps and into the hall. Lightning flashed, illuminating the space and causing the gold in the large room to glitter. "Welcome to your home Kai, I hope your Japanese is up to standard, Russian won't be needed anymore. You had better not have neglected your studies on the journey here, it will not be tolerated" came the cold voice of his grandfather. An awed Kai could only nod. "You will answer me when I speak to you boy!!" was soon followed with a slap, nothing changed. ~~flashback~~

A very familiar voice brought him back to the present. Kai's heart stopped for a beat as the same cold voice said "welcome home Kai". Kai turned to face the staircase and at the top of the stairs his eyes froze as they met eyes made of ice and steel. He froze. "No, he couldn't be here, no.." A smile formed on the lips beneath the hollow eyes. And Kai's world collapsed around him.
