Chapter 5

Suddenly Dragoon's voice floated towards her. Evidently he hadn't left. His tone was low and accusing. So, you liked Wolborgs' sense of fun?

Startled, Dizzi answered truthfully. Yes, what's wrong with that?

Dragoon's voice came out in a growl. She having 'fun' almost caused Tyson and I to freeze to death!

But…but that was not her…Dizzi murmured. It was those Biovolt people who controlled her!

Dragoonanswered in a hard tone. Don't be so sure there! When I met her, she knew pretty well what she was doing!

No, she didn't! They had done something to her…turned her mad and cruel, those scientists did. Yes, that's what they did!

Dragoon snorted derisively. She certainly wasn't mad! But cruel, yes! You've seen how cruel she was, haven't you? Better believe it, Dizzi!

Dizzi almost seemed to be pleading to Dragoon . It was not her fault! She was turned so mad that she couldn't tell good from evil!

Wolborg knew, Dizzi! And she was not as mad as you believe. At least, she sounded pretty normal to me!

She talked to you? Dizzi asked slowly, as if unbelieving of what Dragoon had just said. She never talked to me, even though I tried to contact her so often.

Sorry that I have to disillusion you, Dizzi… Dragoon did not sound the least bit sorry. But maybe your 'friend' is not as good a friend as you thought.

She is! I count her to my best friends, along with you and the rest of the team! Dizzi cried.

One of your best friends attacked a human! That's the worst sacrilege! And she tried to annihilate me! I can't believe that still call such a spirit your friend, after all she has done to us! Dragoon shouted.

But…but… Dizzi stammered.

Dragoon continued to shout. It's either us, or Wolborg! You have to choose where your loyalties lie!

Dragoon stormed off, leaving Dizzi in his wake.

Dragoooooon! Dizzi called after him, but all the dragon did was ignoring her.

In his dreams, Kai heard some sort of crackling noise, like gunshots. For a short moment he feared that he was back at the Abbey, but then he awoke with a start, realising that he still sat in the kitchen in front of the laptop. He must have dozed off while talking with Dizzi.

The crackling noise had emanated from somewhere nearby. As he quickly opened his eyes, he saw little lightning sparks dancing on the keyboard of the laptop.

"Dizzi?" Kai inquired, somewhat confused.

After a few seconds the sparks receded. Kai yawned and asked again, "Dizzi? What was that?"

Dizzi finally answered, "S-sorry if did wake you up, Kai…" Her voice came out as if she were choking on something.

Alarmed, Kai asked, "What happened?"

Dizzi sniffed. "No-nothing…"

Kai only glared at her, his grey eyes definitely stating that he didn't believe the laptop.

Dizzi sniffed again and then told him, "Oh, well, if you have to know… I had a quarrel with Dragoon…"

Then, suddenly, she started sobbing. It sounded extremely strange coming from a laptop, but Kai nevertheless recognised it as what it was. He had been at the Abbey long enough to discern every kind of sobbing, even when skilfully suppressed.

Dizzi showed no signs of continuing her story, her sobs taking the place of words. Kai glared at her, hoping to intimidate her to stop sobbing. As it didn't work, he could only stare at her helplessly.

"Dizzi…" he tried, and raised his hand a little towards the laptop. Any other person would look as if he was trying to comfort the laptop. Being Kai, he stopped soon enough, and tried talking "Hn…Dizzi…?"

Dizzi calmed down a little bit. "S-sorry Kai…" she sighed. "It's just that … we bit beasts have our differences as well… and Dragoon, he …he was so…"

Kai never thought he would be one that someone confided in, least of all a laptop. He found himself in a very strange situation. He didn't mind listening to Dizzi sharing her problems, even if it did not interest him in the least. Being around Tyson for a longer period of time made hearing anyone else talking a pleasant experience.

But else the situation left him helpless. Needless to say, he didn't like to be helpless. However, at that particular moment he was too tired to make many thoughts of it. He only hoped that she did not expect him to say anything - he wouldn't know how to react. He concluded that Dizzi wouldn't expect anything much; after all, he wasn't known to be very talkative.

"I don't know why I am telling you this," (This, Kai wondered as well), "… you won't tell it to the others, will you?" Kai shook his head, confirming his promise. Why would he tell?

"We bit beasts also have feelings, you know…" No really. Kai tiredly raised his eyebrow, the hour being a little too late for convincing sarcasm. Dizzi rambled her story in a lot of confusing sentences, but in the end Kai finally managed to extract the story about the quarrel over Wolborg.

He yawned, his vision slightly blurring. He took a few moments of sleep-slow thoughts and then murmured, "Wolborg is a wolf. Wolves obey the pack leader. So Tala is her alpha wolf and she will do exactly what he tells her, when he tells her. Wolves do not betray their pack, neither do they question the alpha. If at the beginning the scientists weakened her Tala would have been the stronger one. Now even if she might have regained her full strength and could defeat Tala, she couldn't do that. Beasts don't battle alphas… " Kai yawned again, but Dizzi remained silent for a few seconds, then she showed a big smile on her screen.

"Sounds good..." Dizzi said happily, then as an afterthought, she added: "You should go to bed, Kai, it's three a.m., and you put training for six…"

Kai yawned involuntarily.

"Good night." Dizzi said.

"Good night," he mumbled, then added, "The others read the training schedule wrong. Training's at nine o'clock, not six. Right?"

Dizzi sent him a winking smile, "Yeah, right." Kai carefully replaced the laptop in front of Kenny.

He stared for a second at the younger boy, then he softly placed his hand on Kenny's shoulder and shook him a little. "Kenny, wake up and go to bed…" He said in a harsh, quiet voice. Kenny sleepily opened one eye and Kai repeated his request. Somehow the words managed to filter into Kenny's subconscious and Kenny did what he was told almost without noticing it. He shuffled to the dormitory, his eyes not even half opened and his feet barely lifting from the floor, but the laptop was in his hands, naturally.

Kai switched out the light in the kitchen and followed him.
