When Tyson came into the living room, Kai had the channel on Resident Evil: Appocalypse.

With Max sitting right in front of the screen.

"Kai! You're gunna scar the kid for life!" Tyson yelled. "So? What do you care?" Kai asked. Tyson lowered his head. "I don't want him to be like you when he changes back!" Tyson replied.

"Oh? What's so bad about me, Tyson?" Kai asked curiously. "Er...your snobbish, self-centered, and rude!" Tyson commented. Kai hauled Tyson off the ground, Tyson being inches away from the elders' face. "And do you have a problem with those types of things, hmm Tyson?" He asked. Tyson's mouth shut, and he stared Kai in the eyes, completely silent. Kai threw him to the ground. "Didn't think so." He said, lifting Max off the floor, and away from the TV. "Max? Why don't you take 'idiot-that-is-really-pushing-his-life-span-to an- incredible-limit-to-get-killed', outside and play?" He asked, shoving him into Tyson's arms. "I'm not looking after you brats." He said, turning to go back to watching Resident Evil.

"Oh...He's such a jerk!" Tyson yelled, setting Max beside Hilary. "Who is?" Hilary asked. "Kai! He had Resident Evil: Appocalypse on, and Max was sitting right in front of the TV!" He said, crossing his arms. "He shouldn't let Max watch that--It could screw his head up!" Hilary said. "Exactly..." Tyson said thoughtfully. "Of course!" Hilary said. Tyson stopped. "What?" He asked. "It's obvious! Who's the only one that has a spell book?" She asked. "Um...The White Tigers?" Tyson asked. "Yeah!" Hilary said. "But how'd they get all the way to New Jersey?" Tyson asked. "I don't know..." Hilary said thoughtfully.

"I scanned the whole city; they probably already left!" Tyson cursed. Rei looked up; "What are you talking about, Tyson?" He asked. "The White Tigers did this to Max! ...And they have control over how old he is..." Tyson said. Rei's eyes widened. "They what! Oh, wait until I find those traitors!" He declared, his eyes narrowing to slits, his pupiles sliting like cat eyes. "They're all going to pay once I find them!" He yelled. Tyson stopped him from running out. "Rei, let's search tomorrow; it's 9:30." He said. "And I'm going to bed." He added. "But Tyson? What about dinner? You haven't eaten." Rei pointed out. Tyson turned, a semi-glare on his face. "I'll eat tomorrow." He promised, crossing his fingers in front of him. With that done, he continued to his room.

It wasn't until 3:45 am that Rei heard feet padding in the living room. He knew something was up when he heard a thump, signaling something had bumped into the living room coffee table. Rubbing his eyes, he headed down the hallway, peeking around the corner. Two, blue eyes flashed, and a kitten smile appeared on the figures mouth. "Max?" Rei asked. Max payed no heed, and continued walking around the house. "Max!" Rei said, a little louder. However, Max continued on as if never hearing him. Finally, Rei walked up to Max and picked him up. Max yelped. "Max! What are you doing out of bed?" He asked, taking him back to his room. "It's 3:58 am!" Rei said. Max wasn't studying Rei like he usually did when Rei was talking to him. Suddenly, a thought ran through his mind of what Tyson had said earlier.

"...And they have control over how old he is..."

This thought in mind, Rei turned the light on; Max looked the same, but a bit younger.

"Shit!"
