xXxAngel VxXx: uh huh sure am. Awww thank you. Sorry I didn't update sooner. (Especially with all your nice persuasion) I'll try harder next time. I will, honest!
If I've missed anybody out I'm truly sorry, for some reason they (it won't let me write the name) won't allowed me to enable any of my alerts (reviews, author and C2 community). So I don't know if and when (maybe even or) I get a review -looks sad- ah well on with the story, huh?
And now dear readers I give you chapter nineteen of What Was Once Lost Is Now Found.
(-Thoughts-)
Chapter 19 – Revenge and Beyblades.
"You didn't have to come with me, you know. I'm quite capable of taking care of myself." Tiffany said to Ray as they walked down the street.
(-That's not what I'm worried about.-) Ray thought. "I thought I'd keep you company." He lied.
Tiffany smiled but it had a hint of sadness in it. "You know if Max was up he'd be the one to 'keep me company'. " she said sadly as she looked at the ground.
"How comes you didn't wake him earlier anyway?" Ray asked curious.
Tiffany shrugged trying hard not to replay yesterday's events in her head.
"You two have a fight or something?"
Tiffany stopped and looked at Ray, her surprise was evident.
"It isn't that hard to work out. Usually you two spent every moment you can together." He explained.
She gave half a smile, "Guess you're right." Continuing on her way.
"So what happened?" he continued.
"I… I don't wanna talk about it." (-if I do that means what happened four nights ago would have to be revealed. And I don't think I can face that… not yet.-)
Suddenly Ray grabbed her arm stopping her in her tracks.
"You're hiding something." He said plainly.
"What?" she was so amazed by what he just said that her voice was just about audible. (-Am I really that easy to read-) She wondered.

"She's here, time to put the plan into action." Cameron said.
"Right. Simon, you know what to do." Jason said.
"Leave it to me, Jas." He answers and walks off.
Cameron watched Ray and Tiffany an evil smirk appearing on his face as they drew closer.
"I believe it's time we 'introduced' ourselves."
"Right." Jason said with an evil smile.
They both walked toward Ray and Tiffany and 'accidentally' bumped into them.
"Well well look who it is." Jason said. "Talk about coincidence. Hey, Cam."
"Yeah, I'll say, Jas."
Jason smirked when he saw that Tiffany recognised him and immediately looked fearful.
"Who are you and what do you want?" Ray said defensively. There was something about those two that he just didn't trust/like.
"Awww… I'm upset that you didn't tell him about me, Cutie." Jason said to Tiffany a tad sarcastically.
"You know them, Tiffany?" Ray asked taking a quick side-glance at her. She looked terrified although she was trying hard not to show it.
"R-remember the thing I told you a few minutes ago." She said nervously. "W-well uh…" she stopped when she saw Ray give a nod of his head thankful she didn't have to continue.
Jason smiled and took a quick look around.
"Awww, your brother not with you? Such a shame." He said sarcastically.
Cameron chuckled.
"Why don't the two of you get lost. Tyson may not be here but I am and whatever your planning to do isn't going to work." Ray warned.
"Planning?" Jason said innocently, "What do you think he means by that, Cameron?"
Cameron shrugged, "Here we are out for a walk when we just happen to bump into you, and you're accusing us of planning something?" trying to sound shocked and confused.
Ray looked at them both suspiciously, he knew they were up to something he could feel it.
"What may I ask are we suppose to be planning?" Cameron asked seeing the way Ray was looking at them.
"Would it by any chance have anything to do with this…" Jason said his voice having a hint of evil in it.
There was a thud sound and suddenly Ray fell to the floor.
"RAY!" Tiffany yelled as she looked at his now unconscious form.
She then heard a chuckle from behind her, she looked and saw a person with dark green hair.
"Good timing, Simon."
Simon gave a nod and looked at Tiffany an evil smirk appearing on his face.
(-I gotta get outta here-) She thought desperately (-but I just can't leave Ray laying there.-) Looking back down at him. When she looked back up she saw that all three guys were slowly closing in on her. Panic ensued within her and gradually she walked backwards that was until she hit a wall. Tiffany was now at her wits end she was trapped between a brick wall and three guys who looked like they wanted to do her serious hurt.
"I told you I always get what want." Jason said coldly and evilly.
The next thing Tiffany knew was darkness.

Kai sat in the main room wondering what was taking Tyson so long. It didn't take that long to wake up Max surely. It also made him wonder what was going on between him and Tiffany. When Kenny had asked her to go wake him up she said she thought it was better if Tyson woke him. It seemed fairly strange to him usually Tiffany didn't have to be told to do anything that involved Max, she'd do it automatically.
Just at that moment both Max and Tyson came out of Max's room. Max looked sad and worried and the look on Tyson's face was indescribable.
"It took you long enough." Kai said.
Max looked over at Kai and gave a sad smile.
"Where's Tiff?" Tyson suddenly said harshly almost making Kai jump.
Kai shrugged, he hadn't seen her since Kenny asked her to wake Max. (-Come to think of it that was the last time I saw Ray also.-) He thought.
"Anyone seen Ray?" Kenny asked walking into the room then seeing the sad look on Max's face added, "What's wrong, Max?"
"Nothing, Chief."
"I haven't seen Ray since you… asked… Tiff to… wake… Max." Tyson said suddenly realising something. (-Please don't tell me she's doing what I think she is.-) He thought half angrily half worriedly.

(-What hit me-) Ray wondered as he 'woke up'.
"Tiffany, are you okay?" he asked casually as he placed a hand on the sore spot on his head. (-Ow, what the hell happened-) When he didn't get a reply he looked around there was no sign of Tiffany or those two guys. "Tiffany? Tiffany!" he shouted out but still got no answer. As he got up he thought (-I've gotta tell the others… as soon as everything stops spinning.-) A couple of seconds later he gradually made his way back to the hotel stumbling a little. (-Tyson's so gonna kill me.-) He thought as he entered the hotel and went up to their room.

"Where could they be? We've got a match soon!" Kenny said stressing out.
"Calm down, Chief. The match isn't for another four hours!" Tyson said.
"Four hours! Four hours! Tyson, do you know how short four hours is?" he asked rhetorically, "Not to mention we've still gotta go over our stragies and …"
"Whoa, calm down, Kenny before you strain something." Max said worried that his friend might hurt himself with all the stressing out he was doing.
"They'll be back soon. Tiffany knows how important this match is, as well as Ray." Kai reasoned.
"I guess you're right, Kai. But I still can't help but worry." Kenny said.
At that moment Ray burst through the door making them all jump in the process.
"Hey Ray, what are ya trying to do give us all a heart attack!" Tyson says a tad annoyed.
"Where's Tiffany?" Max asked worriedly. He had a bad feeling about this, he was hoping that she appear next him saying 'right here, Max' but no such luck.
"I-I don't know."
"What do ya mean you don't know!" Tyson suddenly shouted.
Ray winced as Tyson's voice rang in his ears, he was still a little dizzy and the loud voice didn't help his condition. If it weren't for the fact that his hand was against the door he might've fallen again.
"Ray, are you okay?" Kenny asked with concern seeing he had his eyes closed.
"I'll be fine. As soon as the room stops spinning and Tyson's voice stops ringing in my ears." He replied quietly.
"What happened?" Kai asked seeing the sudden panic flash across Tyson's face.
Ray opened his eyes, looked at them then made his way over to sofa.
"Tiffany wanted to go for a walk, I knew it was a bad idea to let go on her own so I told her I'd go with her." Ray began. "We'd been walking for about five minutes when these two guys bumped into us."
Everyone tensed they all kind of knew what was coming next.
"I told them that whatever they were planning wouldn't work then I guess I must've blacked out."
Tyson wanted to ask if Ray knew what happened to his sister but found that he couldn't speak or couldn't move for that matter. He found himself paralysed with fear over what might have happened to her.
"T-T-Tiffany?" Max asked barely able to speak.
"When I came to there was no sign of her or the two guys."
(-Tiffany. No.-) Max suddenly thought.
The room was silent no one knowing what to say then suddenly Max ran into his room and slammed the door. A few moments later everyone could hear crying, Tyson wanted do the same but his body wouldn't obey his brain. He stood there like a statue, a cold emotionless statue. This couldn't be happening to him, he couldn't lose his sister like this. Then suddenly what it said on his uncle's gravestone flashed through his mind only this time the words were different. 'Here lies Tiffany Kinomiya beloved Sister and Friend who went before her time.' It then all became too much for Tyson and he fell in a heap on the floor and started to cry.
Kai went over to him and tried to comfort him not caring that Kenny and Ray were there or what they thought.
"It's okay, Tyson. Shhhh. She's gonna be okay." He said soothingly as he held him.
Kenny was amazed at what Kai was doing and looked over at Ray with a shocked and amazed look on his face, but Ray just smiled at the two and thought it was best if they were left alone. He was about to say just that to Kenny but instead he found himself looking at Max's door, suddenly realising that Tyson wasn't the only one who need 'comforting'. (-Poor Max.-) He thought and decided to go see how he was doing.
Leaving Kenny wondering what to do and still amazed at Kai's actions.
Kai could feel somebody staring at him and turned to Kenny, he silently told him to leave to which Kenny finally complied and looked down at the sobbing teen in his arms.
"We'll find her, Tyson, don't worry. And when we do she'll be just fine." He said trying to calm him down.
"No… she… won't." he sobbed the image of the gravestone still in his head.
Kai pulled the blue haired teen away from him a little and looked at him.
"Tyson, I promise you nothing's going to happen to your sister. I won't stop looking until I find her and those two guys. And when I do they'll be sorry they even looked at her!"
Tyson chuckled a little at the thought of hurting those responsible that 'took' his sister. "You promise?" he asked looking at Kai sad eyes.
"That's what I said didn't I." wiping Tyson's tears away.
Tyson smiled, "Thanks, Kai. That really means a lot to me."
Kai gave a small smile and said, "Do you know how cute you look when you cry?" he teased as he kissed Tyson on the forehead.
"Very funny, Kai." Tyson said as he rested against Kai's chest.
