Chapter 10
Chibi Kai pulled large black tank top over his head and fastened a pair of over sized sweat pants around his hips.
"Hiwary....why do I have to wear so big clothes to sleep?" He asked, shuffling his way over to his bed, careful not to trip.
"Well...um...that's because....all your other clothes are in the wash!" Hilary replied, not wanting to explain the growth spurts when he sleeps.
The chibi sighed, falling onto his futon.
Hilary turned back toward the blue haired child, a thick blanket in her arms.
Unfolding it, she let it fall on top of Kai's small form.
He popped his head out and rested on his pillow.
"Sweet dreams Kai." Hilary bent down and gave the chibi a soft kiss on his forehead.
Standing up, she turned and headed toward the door.
"You aren't leaving me...are you?" Kai's voice suddenly exclaimed.
"No Kai...I'm just going to my room is just next door." The brunette replied, pointing to the door that connected her room with Kai's.
"But...."
Hilary flashed a warm smile. "Don't worry...you won't be alone."
Kai sighed softly and pulled the blanket up over his shoulder.
The brunette flipped off the lights and walked out the door, leaving it cracked open slightly.
Entering the second guest room in Tyson's dojo, she changed into her pajamas and got in bed.
"Poor little Kai...it's almost as if he's afraid to be alone..." Her ruby eyes closed with a yawn, and she drifted off into a peaceful sleep.
---
Crimson eyes shot open at the faintest sound from somewhere outside.
Kai rose quickly to an upright position, glancing about the dark room he was in.
Suddenly, he heard something click, and then soft footsteps of an intruder.
The blue haired youth growled as he watched shadows dance about the hallway through the small crack under the door.
Narrowing his eyes, Kai threw off the covers and swiftly but silently got to his feet, treading cautiously over toward the door.
He pressed his back against the wall, waiting for the intruders to make the first move.
Faint whispers erupted from outside, causing Kai to smirk slightly.
"It's about time they found me...but now everyone else is in danger."
The door at the other end of the room began to creak as it was opened slowly, the culprit was being careful not to awake anyone that might be inside.
Kai cursed to himself. He had two doors to cover now.
Swiftly, he moved over to the second door, hiding behind it as it opened further.
A dark figure appeared, treading cautiously inside the room.
Suddenly, Kai bounded out and grabbed hold of the intruder.
His large hand covered it's mouth so they wouldn't make a sound.
With a swift flick of his arm, Kai threw the intruder down on his bed, pinning his enemy down with his legs.
His crimson eyes widened and he gasped. "You again?!" He whispered, somewhat loudly.
Below him was a teenaged girl, someone he had seen before.
Kai removed his hand and crouched down next to her. "What do you want?"
Hilary blinked a few times, still in somewhat of a shock. She sat up and moaned.
"What the hell is wrong with you?!" She nearly yelled, only to get her mouth covered up again.
"Shh...if you haven't noticed...we have visitors."
The brunette grabbed Kai's hand and forced it off her mouth. "That's why I'm here! I came to see if you were alright!" She whispered.
The blue haired teen stared at her for a moment.
"What?"
Kai opened his mouth to reply, but was cut off when the main door to the hallway began to creak open.
"Stay back..." He got to his feet and moved behind the door once again as another figure intruded into the room.
The figure gasped, seeing Hilary on the floor, but before he could aim his weapon, Kai had tackled him from behind, sending him to the ground.
The weapon discharged, hitting the wall directly behind Hilary.
"What was that!?" A different voice exclaimed.
Kai cursed, bringing the side of his hand down upon the intruder's neck, knocking him out.
"Hurry! Get up!"
Hilary obeyed immediately, jumping to her feet and rushing to Kai's side as he peered around the corner and looked down the dark hallway.
"There!" Someone called.
Two more guns fired at Kai's head, their explosive noises muffled with silencers.
The blue haired teen ducked back inside the room, touching his forehead for any sign of blood.
"Did they hit you?" Hilary asked.
"No..." Kai replied looking at his fingers. "I just felt the wind."
The two teens watched as the remaining intruders took cover in door frames to other rooms, peering around slightly to see if their target was in firing range.
"How are we going to get out?" The ruby eyed girl asked.
Kai thought for a moment before gasping.
Searching his own clothing and finding nothing, he rushed back to his bed, looking around frantically.
Noticing a small bundle of clothes, he began digging through them, finding a pair of toddler sized pants.
He blinked, looking back a Hilary a couple times in confusion.
Shaking his head, he felt the pockets, but found nothing.
"Where is it damnit?!" Suddenly, he found what he was looking for in a cargo pocket.
Kai pulled out his shimmering blue beyblade and tossed the pants aside.
"Where's my launcher?" He asked, looking back at Hilary.
"Umm...I think I put it on the bookshelf." She replied, pointing to a bookcase next to him.
The older teen got to his feet and rushed to the bookcase, trying to find his launcher in the dim lightly.
"Hurry!"
With a curse, Kai's hands finally grasped a familiar object. "Alright!"
Attaching his beyblade to the launcher, he returned to the door and aimed it into the hallway.
"You plan to disarm them or something? You won't be able to do it with one hit!"
"Shut up will ya?" Kai was getting annoyed.
His eyes scanned the areas he could see from the doorway, calculating everything that needed to happen for his plan to succeed.
Suddenly, he pulled his ripcord as hard as he could, sending his beloved Dranzer off the launcher and bouncing off the walls in the hallway.
"What the..." A voice exclaimed.
There was a sudden cry of pain, followed by another.
"Heh....just as I thought...the two were across from each other..."
"Wow...." Hilary blinked.
Suddenly, Kai bounded fearlessly into the hall, rushing towards the intruders.
"Damnit!"
Kai's knee rammed against one of the intruders' chin, sending him to the floor in pain.
His crimson eyes glanced across the hall to the remaining enemy, still tending to his broken hand.
"Hey! Girl! Get downstairs and wake the others!" Kai called back to Hilary.
Nodding, the brunette rushed out of the room and past Kai.
Flying down the stairs, she noticed Dranzer, still spinning in place, waiting for it's master to call for it.
Bending down, she grabbed the beyblade and stuck it in her pocket and rushed off to find Tyson and the rest of the BladeBreakers.
---
Kai took a step forward, ready to attack his last opponent.
The man looked up from his injury and gasped in fear.
He bent down, trying to locate his weapon, but Kai had already kicked it out down the hall.
"Damn! The serum wore off?!" The intruder took a step back.
"Sir!" He yelled as loud as he could, but was cut off as he was tackled to the ground.
Kai grabbed him by his collar and glared at him. "Who are you? What do you want?!"
Suddenly, Hilary's scream rang up from the first floor.
With a growl, the blue haired teen threw the man back on the floor and rushed down the stairs.
He ran toward the back of the dojo, to the training room, remembering that's where they would all sleep.
Throwing the doors open, he saw his friends, cornered at the far end of the room and a dark figure holding a gun out at them.
"Ah there he is!"
Kai skidded to a stop, his eyes wide at the sound of the voice.
The figure was a tall man, and wore goggles with red lensed that glowed in the dimness of the room.
"Boris!" Kai growled, clenching his hands into fists.
"So the serum did indeed wear off...."
"What did you do to me?!" The teen demanded.
"Kai! Get out of here while you can!" Tyson suddenly shouted.
"Shut up meddlesome brats!" Boris spat, his finger squeezing the trigger of his weapon.
Kai took a step forward, ready to bound in and stop the evil Russian from firing the gun when suddenly, he gasped in pain and fell to his knees.
"No....not...now...."
Boris cocked his head to the side at the teen's sudden pain, staring at him in confusion.
"What's going on?" He demanded to know.
Kai moaned as his body pulsated with a familiar pain, but no matter how much he tried to fight it, his body became weaker and weaker, and smaller.
There was a sudden brilliant flash of light, causing even Boris to shield his eyes from it's glow.
When the light faded, Kai had once again transformed into his chibified self, sitting on the wooden floors in a disoriented state.
The blue haired toddler looked around before his crimson eyes settled on a pair of black boots and traveled upward.
With a gasp, Kai's eyes widen as his gaze reached the stranger's face.
He shook his head and began to mumble inaudible things to himself. He scooted backwards, trying to escape the purple haired stranger but ran into something.
A man appeared behind the chibi and picked him up by the back of his shirt.
"Let me go!" The young version of Kai screamed, kicking his feet and swinging his arms desperately, trying to get away.
"Heh..." Boris began to chuckle, walking over to the struggling chibi. "It seems the experiment just has a few...glitches in it."
"No! Leave him alone!" Hilary called out, rushing from behind her captor and grabbing the chibi in her arms. "Don't hurt him...please let him go." She held the blue haired chibi's head to her chest, her body trembling slightly.
"Hiwary...." Kai sniffed, squeezing the fabric of her shirt.
"So this is the way it's going to be?" Boris looked back at the rest of the team. They all had now been surrounded by more men to prevent any more interference.
"As you wish....we'll take them all." With that, the older Russian snapped his fingers and the man in front of the door.
He nodded and grabbed hold of Hilary while Boris grabbed Kai, wrenching the two apart.
The chibi cried as he was torn from his friend's embrace. He reached out, trying to grab the brunette again, but Boris swung him under his arm and walked out of the dojo.
The remaining men nodded to each other, and began knocking the rest of the teens unconscious with the back of their guns.
"You've caused me a lot of trouble young Kai..." Boris said emotionlessly, covering the screaming chibi's mouth as they emerged from the house.
With an angry growl, Kai bit down on his captor's hand, knowing quiet well the punishment he would soon receive."
"Insolent whelp!" The purple haired Russian snarled, bringing his knee to the small boy's chest.
The impact knocked the breath out of Kai, and soon enough, the chibi fell unconscious, creating a large smirk of achievement to cross the Russian's face.
"You're nothing with this body my young Kai...."

Please review!
Hopefully that didn't move too fast...I'm trying to break my habit of rushing.
