Emi-Chan: Hola!!!

Zi- SHUT UP! (Hits with mallet)

Me- good idea, anyway I was disappointed with the one review I got for the last chapter so I have dedicated this chapter to Kaieshakai because she has reviewed every chapter so far! In addition, if people don't start reviewing I'm considering discontinuing this story.

Zi- quit your whining and get on with it.

Bob- anything you see on the show is not owned everything else is.

Previously:

"Maria, what's happening?" Kala asked worriedly, it had been half an hour and there was no improvement in Kai. He twitched.

"KALA!" Maria shouted over to her friend, who sprinted over immediately.

Now:

"Kai, Kai can you hear me?" Kala said into his ear.

"What are you doing?" Tala asked as Maria bent down and placed a sprig of mint (yeah, just go with the flow!) under his nose and he sat up coughing violently.

"So that's what happens when you try and sleep," Kai muttered scowling at Maria.

"What? We all thought you were dying!" Maria explained

"Fine, just no so harsh next time please," Kai croaked getting to his feet,

"What happened to your face Rei?" Kai asked hoarsely.

"It, happened" Rei replied pointing at Maria who just flashed her nails at Kai ,who flinched. Tyson walked over to Kai and looked at him weirdly before asking: "Why the hell are you all here?"

"We're here because it's our duty to protect you from whatever did that to Kai." Kala explained calmly to the bladebreakers, who merely stared at them confused, "Kai, you explain,"

"He can't, he can barely talk Kala!" Tala protested.

"I don't need my mouth to tell them." Kai responded walking over to a bare spot of ground, away from any possible greenery. A red aura surrounded Kai as fire flashed through his veins; a huge frame made of fire was floating in mid-air. Soon images of beatings, the last war, and blood shed more than their wildest nightmares. Tyson's eyes were transfixed to the screen, gaping at the brutality and cruelty.

"I've been lucky, She went easy on me," Kai said after the fire had died down, he walked off leaving the bladebreakers in a state of shock and Tala, Kala and Maria miserable and nauseous.

"Yo lil' dudes and dudette! Some funky peep out front for ya T-bone and some chillin' crimson tears ya dig?" Tyson's grandpa walked into the garden.

"Comin' gramps," Tyson strolled through the dojo with his grandpa to meet a very worried Mariah.

"Our village got attacked by a giant black bird, it took Lee, Gary and Kevin!" The pink haired nightmare bawled, and followed Tyson into the garden.

"Rei, your problem." Tyson pointed at Mariah.

"Okaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay, What's up?" Rei asked as Mariah, she walked over to him and explained:

"Our village got attacked by a giant black bird, it took Lee, Gary and Kevin!" She sobbed on his shoulder

'What a cry baby,' Rei thought (hehe no fluff)

"Hang on, say that last bit again," Kai asked,

"It took Lee, Gary and Kevin?" Mariah answered

"No before that," Kai urged

"A big black bird..." Mariah began

"Damn you to hell Black Dranzer!" Kai cursed (no offence meant to religious people) 'Bloody mother' he added as an afterthought before his wrist started to burn "Shit," He muttered under his breath

"What?" 10 voices said simultaneously,

"She's taken Galeon, Gallzy and Galamon," He whispered as a marking on his wrist burst into flame.

"What's that?" Rei asked

"Nothing of your concern," Kai hissed as Mariah held back the tears, 'He mustn't see me cry' She thought for a moment before two words came to her mind:

"Crimson tears," She muttered to herself, Maria walked over to Mariah, who was now sitting by herself.

"How do you know that?" Maria asked softly through gritted teeth 'How does she wear that much pink????' she yelled inside her head.

"Lee said to find the Crimson Tears healer," Mariah sniffed

"You're lookin' at her," Maria grinned happily,

"No way, Lee said she was one of us that was taken," Mariah's words faded to nothing as she saw the Neko-Jin in Maria's eyes,

"Welcome back," Rei held out his hand for Maria to shake.

"FINALLY!!" Maria hugged Rei and Mariah gleefully thinking 'wanted at last'.

# finally#

- I know-

#'She' struck again though#

- I can't believe it's come to this-

-What's she after this time?-

# The usual, phoenix, dragon, turtle, dragon. She wants rid of all who oppose her in strength, my mother does not tolerate anyone with higher status than her alive#

- therefore, we have to combine again-

# It won't work#

# Time to fly, She's in Brighton, England#

-) Aye! Aye! (-

Kai, Kala, Tala and Maria all took out their launchers.

"Let...It...Rip!" They all shouted in unison calling four sacred spirits into the air.

"Where are you going?" Tyson asked bewildered

"Later! Crimson Tears REFORM!" Kai rose up onto Dranzer's back followed by Kala, Tala and Maria.

"Do Svidanya()!" Tala called out to the people below them,

"Best of luck, Rei yelled up, Maria gave him a thumbs up before disappearing under a white wash of clouds.

"Where to?" Maria asked,

"Brighton, England," Tala replied

"O greeeeeeat cold beaches Oh and Rock£!!" Kala almost jumped for joy.

I'll be there, as always

# Thank you#

"Will the Majestics be there?" Tala asked,

"Hope so," Kala muttered, her good mood drowned by the miserable atmosphere.

# Robert Jurgan, will he be there?#

The Majestics shall be there

#Thank you#

They flew over China at a relatively fast pace
