A/N:
I know the chapter title's a little crap but it was all I could think of.

/-Thoughts-/

Chapter 9 - Listen To Your Heart.

"Anyone know what's going on?" Kenny asks confused by Tiffany's behaviour.

"I think the only one who can answer that is Tiffany." Ray answered.

"And it appears she's staying quiet." Max says.

"She's changed." Tyson said quietly looking at the door she just went through.

"It's time she told us everything." Kai said.

"And if she doesn't want to?" Kenny asked.

Suddenly Tyson ran into the house without a word.

"Tyson." Kai said after him, "I'm going after him. You guys find Tiffany and see what she's playing at." He instructs.

/- I wonder if it's got anything to do with what happened back home." Max wonders as he thinks back to the conversation they had that morning before they all agreed to go to America.
#MEMORY#
"So what are you doing out here?" Max asks again.

"Thinking." She answered if a little solemnly.
#END MEMORY#

Tyson was in his room looking out the window, wondering what happened to change his sister so dramatically.
#FLASHBACK#
A tear slid down Tiffany's sad face.
"He died Tyson. He left me everything. Everything. The house, the business, everything!" she was crying now.
#END FLASHBACK#
He could still remember how pained she looked when she told him about their uncle but he had a feeling there was more to it than that. What had happened over the years that could've made her react to people like this? How did she know that girl and what did she mean by 'we will have our revenge.'
'I got into a little trouble.' Tiffany's voice says in his mind. What kind of trouble did she mean? Tyson sighed /-I wish you would tell me what happened to you Tiff.-/ he thought. Then another question popped into his head, if Tiffany was able to beat Kai so easily why didn't she use the same attack when she battled him? He replayed their match in his mind. It just didn't make any sense why hide an attack as powerful as that? He growled in annoyance he had too many question and no answers to any of them.

"What did the window ever do to you?" a voice says a little sarcastically.

Tyson turned around surprised the voice and saw Kai by the door.
"Kai, how long have you been here?"

But Kai didn't answer instead he said, "You're worried about her aren't you."

Tyson gave a nod. He was surprised that it was Kai standing there wanting to help him with his troubles he was expecting Max or maybe even Ray but they were probably too into his sister to notice.

"She's changed Kai, and I don't know why." He said worriedly. "I know she can take care of herself but I can't help but worry that she's got herself into something she can't handle."

"Tyson, your sister's been keeping a lot of things from us. The fact that she was your sister, that she blades, this place…" Kai started to say.

"If you're trying to make me feel better Kai it's not working."

"I'm simply saying that it's about time she told us what she knows. Look at the match we had, none of us knew she had an attack like that."

Tyson gave a small smile.
"Well you were asking for it."

Kai raised an eyebrow.
"I just ask her to give us a demonstration of what she meant."

Tyson gave a small chuckle.
"And annoy her in the process. She wouldn't even get changed because of it."

Kai gave a small smile.
"I must admit it was the first time I've ever battled someone in a bikini before."

"And get beaten in two seconds." Tyson added.

"Hey, I was trying to forget that." Kai pointed out jokingly.

They both laughed.

"Thanks Kai."

Kai smiles and gives a nod.

/-I never noticed before how cute Kai looks when he smiles. Wait a minute did I just think that?-/ Tyson thought as he looked at Kai.

/-Why is Tyson staring at me? What's the matter? Is it something I said?-/ Kai wonders. "Tyson, what's wrong?" he asks voicing his thoughts.

"Hm? Oh nothing Kai." Blushing a little /-I didn't realise I was staring, I musta scare the heck out of him.-/

/-He looks so cute when he blushes. Oh no could Tiffany actually be right? Could I… no, no that can't be it. I mean it's Tyson.-/
"Then why were you…" Kai began but didn't get to finish

"Where is everyone else?" Tyson asks.

"I told them to go find Tiffany."

A devilish grin suddenly appears on Tyson's face.

"Tyson what are planning?" Kai asks curiously.

"Oh just that it was about time Tiff and Max noticed each other."

"Noticed each other?" he repeated a little confused.

"Don't tell me you haven't noticed the way they look at each other."

"Not really."

"I'm going to get them together…" Tyson says.

"I don't think that would be a good idea. Besides I don't think your sister would like you interfering in her personal life."

"Ahhh come on Kai, it'll be fun. And besides you're gonna help me."

"What are you gonna do about Ray? You know he likes her to."

"We'll figure that out later. So what do ya say? Will you help me? Pleeeeease." Giving his best puppy dog look -which he learned off Max.-

Kai sighed then shook his head.
"Fine I'll help you." /-one of these days I'm gonna have to figure out a way to say no to him.-/

"Thanks Kai, you're the best." He says smiling brightly.

/-Kai what have you let yourself in for.-/ he thinks to himself.

"You find her yet?" Kenny asks as he meets up with Ray.

He shakes his head.
"She could be anywhere."

"What happened to Max?" wondering where the blonde had got to.

"Maybe he got lost, this place is big enough."

"Or maybe he's found Tiffany."

That was an answer Ray didn't want to hear. /-Why is it always Max? What has he got that I don't?-/ he wondered then sighed.

"You okay Ray?" Kenny asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine Chief. Maybe we should ask one of the servants if they've seen her."

"Good idea."

It had just turned midnight and Tiffany was out in garden wondering round. It was always so peaceful out here, it was also a beautiful night the moon shone brightly and the stars twinkled against the dark night sky. Tiffany sighed as she sat on a bench and looked at the stone Pegasus fountain. She sighed once again thinking about what had happened earlier that day.
#FLASHBACK#
"Well well look what the cat dragged in."

"What the hell do you want and how did you get in here!?" she spat at the person.

"Now now Tiffany, is that anyway to talk to an old friend?" the girl said with a slight smile.

"You're right." Tiffany said her voice suddenly back to normal. "Where are my manners what I meant to say was GET THE HELL OFF MY PROPERTY!"

The girl growled at Tiffany.
"Very well, but just remember this Tiffany, we will have our revenge." And with that the girl walked off.
#END FLASHBACK#

/-I knew it was a bad idea to use that attack.-/ she thought sighing, /-but Kai just made me so annoyed. And now they know I'm back.-/ she looked up into the sky. "What am I to do now?" she asked it hoping it would give her the answer, but it stayed silent like the rest of the night with only the sound of crickets every now and then. /-I must of scare the hell out of my brother… and probably the others too. They're all wondering what's going on I guess, but what do I tell them? So much happened to me while I was growing up.-/
She took out her blade and looked at it. "I guess it's time I stopped running huh Firefly."

"Time you came back more like."

Tiffany looked up and saw that there was someone on the other side of the fountain but she couldn't see who it was. The moon now hidden behind some clouds.

"Who's there?"

"Face it that's the real reason you came back, not to help those idiots but to make up for what you did in the past. Why else would you've used that attack." The person states.

"I doubt that highly." She replies.

The person chuckled, "You should listen to your heart and hear to what it's telling you. When you do you'll know why you came back."

Then the moon came out from behind the clouds illuminating the garden as before but the person had gone it was as if they'd disappeared into thin air.

"Listen to my heart?" Tiffany repeats softly. /-Perhaps I should, maybe it can tell me what I'm suppose to do now.-/
Her grip around Firefly tightened and she put her hand upon her chest closing her eyes at the same time. A minute or two later she opened her eyes and smiled then headed towards the house.

Max awoke to someone gently knocking on his door, he tried to ignore it at first thinking it maybe Tyson wanting to know if he would join him in another midnight feast. But the person kept knocking Max looked at the clock and sighed then got up and went to the door.
"No Tyson, I don't want…" he stopped mid sentence when he saw who it was.

"Don't want what? And no I'm not Tyson." the person says with a little giggle.

"T-Tiffany? W-wha…" Max tried to say but found he couldn't speak all that well.

"Hi." She says cheerily, "I uh... bet ya wondering what I'm doing here huh."

Max gave a nod.

"Um…would you believe I just felt like dropping by?"

"At one in the morning?" giving a little yawn.

"I didn't wake you did I?" she asks a little embarrassed.

"Oh, no no I er…"

"Good, mind if I come in? Don't wanna wake anyone else do we."

As Tiffany walked into Max's room someone else opened their door and looked out into the corridor. /-I'm gonna have to tell Tyson about this.-/ he thinks with a smile.
