FireieGurl: you'll be pleased to know that Kai and Tyson will be getting together very soon.
You/Kai fic fan: I'm glad you liked the chap and I'm also glad I was of some help.
Angel V: hey no problem, hope you got your comp sorted out. Viruses are nasty things! I'm sorry to end it just as you were getting into it but I had a tad of writer's block as I came to the end of the chap. -looks sad-
And now dear readers I give you chapter fifteen of What Was Once Lost Is Now Found.
/-Thoughts-/
Chapter 15 - Hotel Gatherings.
"Let's go Draciel!"
"Go get 'em Lunary!"
Sparks flew as both blades grind into one another. Lunary and Draciel slam into each other time after time.
"Cool blading." Angel commented.
"Thanks your not too bad yourself." Max says.
Up above the stands Tiffany growled, /-she better not be making moves on my Maxie.-/
Angel smiled, "Let's see what you think about this. Lunary, Lunar Strike!"
"Oh no you don't. Draciel, Heavy Viper Wall!" (A/N: think of the attack Max uses in G Rev (besides 'Gravity Control'))
The two attacks slam into each other with Draciel being the only 'survivor'.
"And Max takes the round for the Bladebreakers!"
The crowd cheer wildly.
"Next up will be Sharon versus Tyson."
Both Tyson and Sharon approached the dish. Their match ended up much like Max and Angel's with Tyson being the victor and the same with Ray's match against John.
After their match everyone returned to the hotel. Tyson was hoping Tiffany was waiting for them in their room, he wanted to talk to her about her 'usual' behaviour. He was soon disappointed though when he saw she was nowhere in sight, he sighed as he looked out the window. /-Man, it's like I hardly even know her anymore. I mean who's to say that she's even my sister? Sure, we have the same hair and eye colour but that's about all we have in common.-/ he thought sadly.
"You okay, Tyson?" Ray asks hearing the downhearted sigh that came from his teammates direction.
Tyson was too deep in thought to hear Ray's question and slowly headed off towards his room.
"What's with him?" Kenny asks.
"Dunno." Ray answers.
Kai stares after Tyson for a little while before deciding to see what was wrong with the usually cheery blader.
"I think I might know." Max said.
"What?"
"He was hoping the same thing I was. That Tiffany would be here when we walked in." Max explained.
"Come to think of it, we haven't seen her since we entered the stadium." Kenny says matter-of-factly thinking about it.
Max sat on the couch and sighed as he put his head in his hands.
"I'm sure she's fine, Max." Ray said trying to reassure his friend. It was then that he noticed an envelope on the table. "What's this?" he said more to himself than anyone else. On the front it simply said 'Bladebreakers' /- wonder if it's from Tiffany-/ he wonders as he begins to open it.
'Hey guys, great match today but don't go and get too comfortable there's still a long way to go. Oh and tell my brother to stop worrying already, I'm fine.'
Ray couldn't help but chuckle at the last line he read, /-she knows him too well.-/ he thought. His chuckle had caught the attention of Kenny and Max, they looked at him strangely wondering what he could be chuckling about. Ray continued to read the rest of the letter.
'There's a little gathering of teams that are competing in the tournament or should I say who are still in the tournament. Considering you guys just knocked one team out today. It's in the functions room of the hotel at 9pm if any of you wanna go, I'll be there checking out the other teams for you guys.
Well see ya laters,
Tiffany.
P.S. oh and Maxie…'
Ray suddenly blushed that part was obviously for Max only.
"Ray, what's up?" Max suddenly asked seeing the sudden colour change on his friends face.
"Hm?" Ray said looking up from the letter. "Oh, I found a letter from Tiffany."
"Let's see." Kenny said.
"Perhaps Max should read it first." Handing the letter over to him.
Max looked a little confused and was still confused as he read the letter but then it all became clear as he read the last part.

Tyson sat on his bed his back facing the door, he sighed and fell back onto the bed staring up at the ceiling. He then heard the door open and close and lifted his head to see who it was. It was only Kai.
"What do you want?" he asks annoyed as he continues with his ceiling staring.
"I came to see what's wrong with you." Kai replied.
"Like you would care." Not moving from his spot. /-I never thought I'd find myself wishing for Kai to leave me alone.-/ he thought sadly /-and yet here I am wishing that exact thing.-/ "So why don't you stop pretending that you do and leave."
After hearing no reply Tyson assumed Kai must of left and sighed again, he'd been doing a lot of that lately.
Unknown to Tyson, Kai hadn't left his room. He stood there staring at the blue haired teen. /-Why do you hate me so much Tyson?-/ he wondered /-If only I could tell you how wrong you are about me and about how much I care for you.-/ he shook his head sadly. /-But you are going to tell me what's troubling you whether you like it or not.-/
He walked over to Tyson and looked over him, making the teen yelp in surprise at the sudden face that appeared in front of him.
"Kai! What the hell are you trying to do! Give me a heart attack!" he cried in annoyance.
Kai smirked, "Something like that."
Tyson growled, "I thought you left already." Starting to get up off the bed but he was pinned back down by Kai. He gave a little 'eep' and looked into Kai's crimson eyes. "K-Kai… w-what are you d-doing?"
Kai couldn't help but smile, Tyson looked so helpless and vulnerable. "What's it look like I'm doing?" he said answering him with a question.
Tyson gulped /-Kai, you have no idea how hot you look right now.-/ then blushed and looked away as he realised what he had just thought.
Kai saw the blush and made him wonder what Tyson was thinking about.
"Tyson." he had said it so quietly it almost came out as a whisper, but it had got Tyson's attention and he slowly looked back at Kai.
They stared at each other for couple of minutes before a voice said, "When you two are quite finished staring at each other. I've got something to tell you." They both recognised it to be Ray's.
"Ray?" Tyson said.
"Your expecting maybe Max or Kenny." He replied a little sarcastically.
Kai sighed, got up and turned to Ray. The moment had been spoilt thanks to him.
"What do you want, Ray?" a tinge of annoyance in his voice.
"We found a letter from Tiffany." Ray began but didn't get to finish.
"Is she okay? What'd it say? Lemme see." Tyson say hurriedly finally managing to get up off the bed.
"She says to stop worrying about her, Tyson." He answers, then chuckles a little after seeing the annoyed look upon Tyson's face. "She also said that there was a gathering of teams later tonight."
"Is she going?"
Ray nods and turns to leave but not before saying "You two should be careful, you never know who might walk in." and walks out.
Both Tyson and Kai blush at what Ray was implying. Tyson then turned to Kai.
"Why'd you pin me down anyway, Kai?" he asked curiously.
Kai didn't answer but walked out of room without a word, Tyson gave a small growl.
"Fine then! Don't tell me!" he yelled at Kai's retreating form.

Tiffany wondered around the functions room the hotel, checking out all the different teams that were there although she made sure to keep well away from her ex-team. She didn't want any trouble, but little did she know that trouble had already chosen her. She sighed as she sat the table reserved for her brother's team and did another quick scan of the room. Even though there was a lot of people she felt alone and isolated, /-I wish Max was here-/ she thought then heard a voice from behind her say "Hey Gorgeous." Thinking it to be 'her' Maxie she turned round a small smile upon her face. But instead of seeing Max's dazzling blue eyes like she hoped she found herself looking into mesmerising green ones.
"Uh… hi." She says barely able to speak.
"Tell me, what's a pretty thing like you doing here all alone." The guy asked.
"I-I-I." Tiffany stuttered, she knew what she wanted to say but for some reason her voice wasn't obeying her brain.
The guy looked down at the table reservation.
"Are you a member of this team?" he asked.
Tiffany shook her head, "M-my brother is." She finally managed to say.
No matter how hard she tried she just couldn't seem to stop looking at him. He was wearing a grey shirt, which was left open with tight black top underneath and navy jeans. His hair was a coppery red and his eyes… his eyes, well they just looked like they could make anyone's dream come true. Tiffany closed her eyes tightly /-I love Max, I love Max. Max. Max. Max.-/ She kept telling herself.
The next time she opened them she found that she was looking at Tyson and Max's worried faces.
"Hey you guys came." She said cheerily trying to forget what happen a few moments ago.
"Tyson's never one to turn down a party." Kenny states.
"Neither is Max." Ray adds.
Tiffany chuckles lightly and gave a small nod.

"So? How'd it go?" a girl asked.
"Perfect." The guy replied, "She couldn't resist." He continued with a smirk.
The girl gave a smile then took a quick look at the 'victim', "Do you think you'll be able to continue with the plan now that her 'friends' are here?"
"No problem. Just leave her to me, and by the time I'm finished with her, she'll wish she never came here."
The two smiled evilly at each other.

Hours went by and Tiffany began to think that the guy who had approached her was just her imagination. But then to her surprise she saw the exact same guy go into the gardens of the hotel. Wait… did he just wink at her? She jumped a little in surprise, and being she was resting against Max at the time he also felt the jolt.
"Are you okay, Tiffany?" he asks.
"Hm? Oh yeah I'm fine." She lies.
Max looked at Tyson who he'd been talking to before Tiffany's little jolt, he looked just as worried as Max did.
"I'm going out to get some air." She suddenly says.
"I'll come wi…"
"No!" Tiffany said forcefully as she interrupted Max. Then seeing the shocked, stunned and hurt look upon his face quickly added, "I mean no, it's okay. I'll be back in a few minutes anyway."
Max just nodded and watch her walk off.
"Don't worry, Max. I'll go see what's up, I wanna talk to her anyway." Tyson says reassuringly.
111111111111111111111
Tiffany walked out into the gardens. It was a beautiful night, one she would've loved to spend with Max but she didn't think he'd take to kindly to her wanting to follow another guy. She noticed him walk around a corner and followed him but when she walked round it she found him waiting for her.
"Didn't realised I was that irresistible." He said.
…………………………..
Tyson had walked out into the gardens a few moments after Tiffany had and saw her disappear round corner. /-She's being extremely secretive today… even more than usual.-/ he thought as he followed her. What he saw next made his blood boil, some guy had Tiffany pushed up against the wall and was trying to remove her clothing while she was fighting to get him off.
"Hey you! What are you doing to my sister!" he yells.
