Chapter35: Infiltration.
Max glanced cautiously at the group he had been assigned to; Lois and Pedro gazed determinedly back. He nodded nervously. Not really wanting to be the one who had to go first; he nodded slightly to them.
"I've already told you Max, going first is the easiest one to go on. Trust me." Pedro repeated again. Yet still, it was nerve wracking to have to the next part of the plan Kai had made for them.
Dizzi had played a major part in getting the blueprints for the vast building that now stood a head of them. The fact they had had to memorize them was the difficult part. The plans sketched out to get in was given to Pedro by Nina, and Lois had been given tips into hacking into the main frame computer by Kenny, and surprisingly Ana, who it seemed was the data collector for the Espanola Angeles .
They were the smallest group, but Henry had told them it should make them less conspicuous yet still it made Max uncomfortable, he was used to working into his team the Bladebreakers. Not some mix of three teams. Still, he was put in charge – though he still wondered why.
He turned his gaze back to the obstacle ahead of him. A long rope with his jumper around it. According to Pedro it was fast and, as long as he didn't let go, safe. Max didn't really want to know the consequences.
I've just got to think of Mariam... Come on, she's in trouble and you're to chicken to do some stupid stunt they do on all the movies loads of time.
"Just remember to let go before you crash into the wall." Pedro reminded him as he began to lift his feet.
"Thanks for that Pedro." He muttered, closing his eyes tight and lifting his feet.
The urge to shout out soon left him as he felt the wind wrap around him. He felt it run though his hair and envelope his body, he opened his eyes and felt the strong urge to whoop as he slid gracefully in the air down the wire.
He soon found himself able to let go of his jumper. And land smoothly onto the roof of the tall building. At least until he lost his balance and fell over. He got up quickly, hoping the other two didn't notice.
"Well that wasn't that bad." He told himself as Lois was the next victim to jump off the huge branch they had had to scale.
That time both boys fell over as Lois came crashing into Max, causing them both to go flying. They didn't notice Pedro glide over stylishly and land with a swift precise manner along with perfect balance. The two other boys frowned slightly and got up again.
"We don't have time to fool about you two. If we are going to get back the girl then we must hurry." Pedro said airily to the two of them. The other two got up fast before following him, making Max vaguely wonder why he was in charge.
Ray crept along the side of the humongous building. His cat like reflexes guiding him across the almost frighteningly lofty building; the same as Max, Tyson and Kai had entered with their newly appointed 'parties', everyone splitting up to get one of the captives each.
He felt the rope around his waist tug slightly, realizing he had stopped he began once more to inch along the narrow shaft at the edge of the building, once more trying not to look down for the sake of his sanity.
Just typical, Drigger, if we get out of this remind me to get some life insurance, or at least something like that. He though has images of the whole group falling down to certain death flooded his mind.
You have to be eighteen to have life insurance Ray, but when you're old enough I'll remind you. Drigger's mind voice replied. Ray couldn't help but smile as he thought of Mariah doing this.
Man, if only Lee and the gang were here, they'd no what to do. We'd be able to get you back Mari, no matter what. And I'm going to do the now!
They finally reached an open window, climbing in cautiously as though hoping not to make a disturbance. He jumped silently in, his sensitive ears only just able to hear his fellow 'teammates' jump into the corridor next to him.
Henry and Francis stood on either side of him, like two bodyguards almost. Ana just smirked softly whilst she walked past them, her soft steps not setting pressure pads or triggering trick laser traps to the boys' relief.
"Be careful Ana, I don't want anyone to give us away." Ray warned her; she turned around, her dark eyes meeting his golden orbs. She made a slight hiss with her tongue, as though laughing at him quietly.
"Then I suggest that you don't move your right foot." She told him, she smirked slightly and walked right into his presence. "When I say now, lift it." She murmured in his ear. Ray felt his cheeks redden slightly as he felt her warm breath and mellifluous voice tickle his ear.
She pulled out five small pocket mirrors and positioned them in various positions on the floor until she rose back up. She placed an elegant hand on his torso and pushed him lightly backwards.
"Next time watch where you walk... Ray." She paused before his name as though savoring it. His already pink cheeks turned a faint shade of red as Francis tried not to gawk at the golden brunette walking down the corridor, her hips swaying slightly as she walked a head of them. Henry just frowned, his eyes showing an obvious distaste in her behavior, especially at this crucial time.
Ana just laughed silently to herself, seeing from the corner of her eye the Chinese boy who was staring at her slightly, his cheeks hot with a slight embarrassment.
Tchh. Males are so easy to manipulate.
"Kenny are you sure it's this way?" Zoriaida asked him cautiously in her usual quiet voice. Tyson found himself staring at her dark brown eyes and long loose curls that framed her face beautifully.
He blinked and tried to remember why he was here, the little man called guilt twisted around his stomach and tied his insides out.
Aw man! The one time I'm not thinking about food or beyblading I'm having girl trouble! I'll just have to get Zoriaida out of my head because I have Hilary... I hope... His thoughts were troubled by awful ones of Hilary in trouble, then even worse ones of Isis.
His eyes flashed slightly, showing the hint of protectiveness once more. Man! She's been though enough already! I mean, going out with Kai can't be easy and the place... Biovolt wasn't the best thing to go to even if it was only for a month or two.
"Hey! Listen? Can you hear something?" Phillip suddenly stopped in his tracks, causing Tyson, who was thinking to himself, to fall into himself. "It sounds like crying!" He called out; beginning to run towards the source.
"Wha? Hey Phillip! Wait up!" Tyson called out, also picking up the pace of his walk into a run.
They all ran towards a steel looking door. Phillip signaled for the others to be silent, pressing his ear on the door.
"Someone's in there." He muttered.
Tyson didn't bother with knocking or even trying the door handle. He pushed Phillip out of the way and started banging on the door, fists making slight indentations in it.
"Hilary! Hilary are you in there? Hilary!" He yelled; the faint sobbing from with in stopped as Tyson tried to knock the door down. "Stupid... Baka.... Door...." He muttered between hurling himself at the only obstacle in between the two of them.
"T... T... Tyson?" A small voice murmured; he stopped suddenly. Desperately trying to listen to her quiet voice. "Tyson...."
"What? Hilary?"
"Tyson... door handle..." She muttered; everyone was unable to hear the bit between.
"Wha?"
"The..."
"Wha?"
"TYSON USE THE BLOODY DOORHANDLE!" She yelled through the door, Tyson let out a sheepish frown as he tried it.
A disheveled looking brunette crumpled into his arms, her whole body shaking as she wept from shock.
"Hilary don't cry... You're okay now..." Tyson tried to comfort her, "Ray's getting Mariah and Max is getting Mariam... Kai's gone after Isis..." His last sentence seemed to distress her even more.
"No! No! He can't go and find her! You don't understand! We have to stop him!" She burst out.
"What? Hilary-"
"He's possessed Osiris! He's going to try and get Kai through Isis! We have to stop him!" she gasped through her tears of realization. Everyone was shocked, unable to move.
"Tyson you baka! If you don't come now, your cousin, teammate and my pen pal will all pay the consequences!" She yelled at him, they all came to their senses and started heading to where Kai had been told Isis were going to be.
What's her pan pal got to do with this?
Kai, Cleo, Antonio and Nina finally reached to where Kenny had told them Isis was going to be. It had been relatively easy to get down to where they were supposed to be.
"What the? But this is a beystadium..." Antonio growled, everyone instinctively reached for their blades, launchers ready to let rip their blades.
"Something's not right. Kai, this is a-" Cleo began; only to be cut off by the whole place starting up, the whirr of machinery and other various bits of technology.
"Congratulations. You have managed to find the way to my ice phoenix..." A harsh two toned voice spoke through the hum of everything else. "I must say Hiwatari, if I was still with you I would most definitely find her attractive." A voice filled with mockery.
"Who the fuck are you?" Kai growled; his fist suddenly clenching into a tight ball.
"This boy, his body, is Osiris. I, Hiwatari, am an old unwanted memory. And I shall become the most powerful phoenix in the spirits of the Bit-beasts."
Kai almost fell back in a covered up shock.
Flashback...
Kai reached for Tyson's hand, the ice he was over was beginning to crack. A scuffle and he was safe. Gazing at his team members, no, his friends.
"Let's go. Bladebreakers! Oh yeah we're back!" Tyson cheered and jumped up in the air slightly. They all began to walk back from the lake centre, back to the warmth and comfort of their hotel.
Kai hesitated before following them, taking out the black phoenix from his blade and casting it away. His mind finally able to rest from the nagging evil that had laid in his heart and mind since he had first seen the evil spirit.
And now he was gone.
End Flashback...
"Black Dranzer..."
