Hey again!
Thanks for all the wonderful reviews! I can't believe I've gotten that many already!
Well, like I said in the last chapter, this is the reunion of the team....hopefully it won't disappoint you all....nervous laugh
anyway...here it is..enjoy

Hilary led Kai back to her house, drawing stares from different people as they passed them. Once they were back, the brunette rushed off, leaving Kai in the hallway. She came back, holding two fluffy towels and a wash cloth.
"Here....why don't you go take a shower and clean up." Hilary handed the blue haired teen the towels and pointed him in the direction of the bathroom.
Hilary and her sister had tried to clean off all the blood from his body, but it seemed like an impossible task while he was unconscious. Since he could now walk around slightly, Hilary thought he might feel better once he took a shower, and scrubbed off all the dirt and blood himself.
"Uh...thanks...." With that, he disappeared inside the bathroom.
Hilary sat down on the couch, listening to the sound of the water running.
"Did you find him?" Her sister asked, walking down the stairs about 10 minutes later.
"Yeah. He said he would stay with us for a while longer."
Lena seemed to brighten up at her words. "Well? Where is he?"
"He's in the shower..." Hilary pointed over to the bathroom door.
"Ooooo!" Lena crept over to the door, jiggling the handle softly to see if it was unlocked.
"What do you think you're doing?!" Hilary yelled at her sister, pulling her away from the door. "Let the guy have some privacy! Sheesh!"
Her sister chuckled nervously. "I can't help it! It's not everyday that a hot guy comes and stays in our house! It's locked anyway."
Hilary sighed.

Kai closed his eyes as the hot water cascaded over his aching body. He watched the combination of blood and dirt swirl down the drain below him. He grimaced as he looked at the gash in his leg. He couldn't remember how he got it, but he guessed it was from a knife, or a similar object. The bleeding had slowed down almost to a complete stop, and the skin around it appeared to be healing.
"What happened to me?" He asked himself silently, lathering his hair with a handful of shampoo. He leaned over and let the water rinse the blue mass clean. He then grabbed the wash cloth and scrubbed his wounds gently, ridding his pale skin of more grime and dried blood. They stung harshly as the soap ran over the deeper wounds, causing Kai to hiss.
Once he finished cleaning himself, he turned off the water and stepped on out onto the tiled floor. Grabbing one of the towels, he quickly dried himself and wrapped it around his waist. Using the other, he threw it over his head, rubbing his hair fiercely. Removing the towel, he shook the remaining water droplets off as he proceeded over to the mirror. He wiped away the fog with the towel and let it drop to the floor as he examined himself for the first time in a long while.
His blue hair was limp, sticking to the sides of his face, which had a few small cuts and bruises on the cheeks and forehead. A scab had formed where his lip had been split. His ribs protruded against his skin, which was covered with more cuts and bruises. Kai noticed a small tattoo under his collar bone. He leaned over the sink, staring at it intently in the reflection. It was a string of numbers with the letters BV and the end.
"Hmmm." Kai arched an eyebrow at it. "What's that for?" He sighed and looked at the blue triangles on his face, a deadly scowl forming on his face.
He growled, immediately grabbing the wash cloth and scrubbing at the triangles on his cheeks. He growled again, this time louder as the blue paint stayed in place.
"Are they tattoos?" He glared at himself in the mirror, trying to scrub them off again, but to now avail. He cursed softly, throwing the cloth into the sink.
"Kai?" A voice asked behind the door.
The blue haired teen jumped slightly, turning to the closed door. He limped over to it, unlocking the handle and peering outside. He looked down to see the friendly face of a brunette, smiling up at him.
"Here, I brought you some new clothes!" She lifted her arms up, revealing a pair of purple pants, a navy vest and a folded white scarf. On top of the clothes, there was a couple rolls of gauze and some medical tape.
"Where did you find these?" Kai asked, shocked as she pushed the items into his arms.
"I bought them on the way home from school, that's why I was late." Hilary smiled again. "There the same size as your old ones. It was hard trying to find a scarf, so I hope that one's alright." She looked down at her feet, blushing slightly.
Kai looked down at the clothes and back at Hilary, still somewhat shocked. After a moment, he smiled, chuckling softly.
"What?" Hilary looked back up at him.
"Thank you.....I owe you alot already...."
"Stop it!" The brunette interrupting him by sticking her hand in front of his face. "You don't owe me anything, remember that."
Kai sighed, closing his crimson eyes.
"Now, why don't you finish up in there, and then come into the kitchen. Dinner's waiting for you." She gave him a wink, and went off. "If you need help, just call!" "Heh...." Kai smirked as he closed the door.

After a few more minutes, Kai appeared in the kitchen. Hilary and Lena were already seated at the table, waiting to eat their food.
"Hey..." Lena started as she stared at their guest, dressed in fresh clothes.
The purple jumpsuit fit perfectly, along with the navy vest. The white scarf came down past his knees in two tails. A large grin appeared on Hilary's face. The new outfit made Kai look a little older and respectable, not to mention cuter. She patted the chair next to her, signaling the blue haired teen to sit down.
"Hope you don't mind ramen again...it's the only thing Lena's allowed to cook, and I burn everything I touch!" Lena giggled, causing Kai to roll his eyes and exhale loudly.
"I gave you a fork too!" "I see...." He picked up the utensil and examined it. "Thanks."
The three teens ate their meals in silence. The girls were dying to ask questions, but figured it wasn't the time.
"We made up the guest room for you Kai." Lena suddenly stated as she put her bowl in the sink.
"Thanks....you've gone through alot of trouble for me...." "Nonsense! We love having company!" Hilary quickly replied.
"But how...." Hilary placed a finger to his lips.
"Would you stop already!? You don't have to pay us back! Besides, you got me an A on my science project. I'd say that's enough payment." She smiled.
Lena giggled madly in the background.
Kai looked away as he stood up, taking his bowl to the sink.
After cleaning up the kitchen, the teens got ready for bed. Hilary led Kai to his new room.
"Tomorrow, I have to be with some friends for a good part of the day, so you're stuck with Lena."
"Great...."
"Good night. If you need anything, I'm right next door."
With that, Hilary departed to her room. Kai let out a loud sigh and collapsed on the soft bed, immediately drifting to sleep.

Hilary, Tyson and Kenny were sitting patiently in the airport's lobby, waiting for their foreign friends to arrive.
"Hey guys..." A voice said behind them. The group turned around to be greeted by a raven haired teen, dressed in Chinese clothing.
"Rei!" Everyone exclaimed.
Hilary jumped up and gave her friend a hug. "How are you?" She asked softly.
"I'm good....how about you guys?" He replied, shaking Tyson's hand.
"We're holding up." Kenny said.
"Tyson!" Another voice exclaimed, this one belonging to a hyper blond haired boy. He hugged his friend quickly.
"Hey Max!" Everyone exclaimed.
"You all ready?" Rei asked, earning nods from everyone.
With that, the group exited the airport to go back to Tyson's dojo to drop off their bags before proceeding to the grassy hill outside of town.
After a 10 minute walk, the group of teens came to the hill, raising above the ocean shore. They circled around the polished stone, staring down at it.
No one said anything, they just stared at the sacred spot under the large tree. The brunette could feel a strong sense of grief for her friends. Every year on this day, the usually energetic teen was solemn and quiet, like his life had been drained. Max was the same way, and Rei, he tried to hide it, but Hilary could tell that the early death of his captain affected him the most. Hilary felt a little awkward. She didn't even know this guy, but she wanted to respect her friends.
After everyone said a prayer, they departed once again from the grave. The ground glowed a brilliant red behind them, calling out for the unknown.

The remaining BladeBreakers walked back into the dojo. Everyone ditched their shoes before proceeding further into the house.
Tyson suddenly lost his balance as he tried to take off his second shoe, knocking over a small table next to him. A picture frame hidden within the drawer fell out, shattering on the wooden floor.
"Careful Tyson!" Rei exclaimed.
Hilary bent down to pick up the broke frame. She turned it over and gasped at what she saw. It was a picture of the BladeBreakers after their first world championship. Her eyes widen as she stared at the figure on the far right.
"K...Kai?!" She exclaimed.
Tyson snatched the picture away from her. "Yeah....that was him...." He stuffed the picture back into the drawer.
"How did you know his name?" Max asked.
"He's....he's at my house!"
"Very funny Hil." Tyson glared at her and turned to leave.
"No! It's true! I found him on the street the other day! He was wearing the same thing in that picture! He even has it in his wallet!"
"Come on Hilary, stop it already."
"It's very cruel to joke about something like that. Kai died in a plane crash 3 years ago!" Kenny said.
Hilary gasped. So that's why he couldn't remember....but how did he get those injuries? Some of them weren't 3 years old!
"No! I'm not lying! I'll prove it to you!" She grabbed Tyson's hand and rushed outside toward her house.
After a few moments, everyone was standing on her front porch, waiting for her to open the door.
"I hope he didn't run off again...." Hilary thought. If he wasn't there, she was probably going to loose her friends.
She took a deep breath and opened the door, only to be immediately greeted by a tall, blue haired figure, about to open the door for himself.
Everyone gasped in surprise. "Kai!" Hilary exclaimed, finding her voice.
Kai stood there, his crimson eyes as wide as saucers. Small shivers shook his thin body as he stared back at the 4 boys on the porch. All their eyes were just as wide, and the color had drained from their faces. "Oh my God! Kai!?" Tyson reached out to him.
The blue haired teen quickly took a few steps back. "Ty...Tyson? He managed to say. Suddenly, his vision began to darken, and he felt extremely dizzy. His body swayed slightly as he tried to retreat further in the house, and suddenly blacked out, falling to the floor.
Everyone burst inside. Tyson managed to catch the teen before he hit the hard wooden floor.
"Kai? Kai!" The navy haired teen shook his captain slightly, trying to wake him up. Tears were running down the boy's cheeks. After three years, their friend was alive!
Kai was eventually lifted onto the nearby couch, everyone sitting around it.
"Is that.....really him?" Max asked.
Hilary tossed Rei his wallet.
"Yeah...it's him alright." The Chinese teen said after seeing all the money stuffed inside. He showed his friends the damaged picture and sure enough, it was an identical match to the one they all possessed.
"But....how?!" Tyson exclaimed. "You heard the reports. Everyone on board died!"
"Maybe Kai jumped out, or maybe he was thrown out." Kenny suggested. "Or maybe someone took him." Hilary said, starling everyone.
"You mean, he was kidnapped?!" Tyson asked.
The brunette got up and fetched Kai's old tattered clothes and laid them out for everyone to see.
"These are the clothes I found him in. It seems someone did this to him. Some of his injuries are weeks old at the latest. I think he escaped from somewhere."
The boys gasped. "Who could have done this?" Kenny asked.
"Do you think......" Max started, scared to say what he was thinking.
"BioVolt? But I thought Voltaire and Boris were arrested after the championships!" Rei finished.
"Wait a minute....didn't the cops say that the plane's engine was tampered with?" Kenny asked.
Everyone nodded.
"It makes sense then....they wanted to get revenge!" Max said.
"Well, we'll just have to wait until Kai wakes up." Tyson looked over to the sleeping teen, sweat pouring from his forehead.
He stirred slightly, moaning inaudible words.
In the darkness, Kai was struggling with his dreams....dreams from the past.
