Here's the next chapter

An Unexpected Love

Chapter 20… O.O Already? WOW!

Finding a Phone (crappy title, I know)

They finally managed to meet in a small clearing.

"I guess we can put the radios away" Max said putting it away.

"Yeah, I guess" Ray said doing the same.

Angel put hers in the backpack she brought along.

They walked in the direction their bitbeasts had instructed them and found the path.

They followed it down to the camp site.

Kai growled once he came inside, "I knew it!" he said angrily, he didn't want to be right.

Angel came up to him and looked at his frowning features.

"Kai" she said quietly and walked over to Tyson.

She hugged him, he was about to cry.

"It's alright Tyson, we'll find her and Kenny too" she reassured him, "before you know it she'll be back with you, I know you love her. Just believe, believe that we can do it, we can find her" she told him.

"Thanks" he said letting go and sitting down.

They all sympathized with him.

"Hey, you guys come here! I found something that I think you might want to see" Max said.

"How could they?" Ray said after they saw what Max was talking about.

"What is it?" Angel asked as they went over.

"That" Max said pointing to the table.

On it was a message which said:

Don't worry about your friends we'll take care of them until it's time. Biovolt would like both Kai and Angel to join if not willingly. We will keep your friends until the tournament if you don't join us by then bad things could happen.

-The Dark Slayers

P.S.: don't bother trying to save them it'll only make it worse

They were all shocked, now Kai and Angel didn't have a choice but to join if they wanted Hilary and Kenny to be ok.

"They're doing everything they can think of to make us join and it's just not fair!" Angel yelled. She was really mad, when you mess with her she doesn't mind as much but if you mess with her friends then everyone should watch out.

"They probably won't keep their word" Danny said.

"Knowing them they probably won't but that doesn't mean they wouldn't keep them alive. We are going to have to come up with a plan" Kai suggested.

"It's probably a good idea" Ray agreed.

"I say we ignore the lame threat and go rescue them now!" Tyson proposed.

"No, they would only carry out their 'lame' threat" Danny warned.

"Know would be a good time to tell my mom what is going on, they could help" Max advised.

"I think Max is right, we should warn them, they'll probably want to steal bitbeasts again" Ray agreed, "the white tigers should know more about the situation than what Mariah's probably already told them"

"Alright, I'll tell Tala about this. He'll be more than happy to help" Kai told them.

"We'll have to warn who ever we can" Tyson said.

"Yeah, but we can't warn everyone because we don't know who and who is entering. We'll have to find out from Mr. D" Max told him.

"Oh yeah" Tyson said when he realized.

"Um… guys? Is there a phone around here?" Angel asked.

"I think there was one down the road somewhere" Danny said.

"We need two brave volunteers to go" Angel said.

"I'll go" Danny offered.

"Thanks Blaize, who else wants to go?" Angel said.

"I'll go with him" Tyson volunteered.

"Alright, you guys will leave tomorrow morning, it's already dark out" Angel told them, "Also I want you to take a radio, just in case"

"Ok" they agreed.

"Right now we need to rest tomorrow while Daniel and Tyson go to find a phone we will be practicing. We all know have an even special and stronger bond with each of our bit beasts. We need to use that to our advantage" Kai said taking charge.

He walked to the room that he was occupying, Angel went to hers. She was alone now, with out Hilary.

Danny stayed with Ray to give Kai his own room and Tyson stayed with Max.

They all decided to go to bed and rest.

(The next day)

They all woke up at around the same time. Tyson was up on time for once. Danny and Tyson were about to leave in search for the phone Danny said he saw.

They had eaten before Tyson ate willingly but both Kai and Danny needed some convincing which Angel provided.

After they ate Tyson and Danny headed out in search for the phone.

Max, Ray, Kai and Angel were outside practicing while they could.

Angel's POV

Augh! I can't believe they would stoop so low! My own father, I never would have believed it before.

When they messed with me it wasn't so bad but now, now I just wanna make them pay for endangering my friends!

'Elzer help me reach my goal!'

'I will my dear Angel, I will…'

I heard a voice say softly in my mind. Once I heard him I calmed down a little.

'I'm glad you're here Elzer.'

'I'll always be here mistress; I'll never leave your side…'

'Thank you'

I put my blade in my launcher and released it, it felt good to let Elzer's power rush through me. Whenever I put my heart and soul into my beyblade I feel her power flow through my whole body giving me the strength I need to keep going. I depend on him and he depends on me, we help each other.

Right now my concentration is on being the best I can and getting my friends back, that's the main thing I need to be worried about.

But I also can't get Kai out of my head, he's always there and I really need to concentrate!

I'm so stressed out, I need to relax. There is so much going on it's all too crazy!

I hope the guys find the phone soon we really need to get out of here and tell the others, I really wish my mom was here, she'd know how to help me.

Sigh. Ok, now it's time to get serious. Ok… relax, let Elzer's power flow through me… relax. Breath in, breath out… concentrate.

AUGH! I can't do this!

I lost all concentration and Elzer went haywire, crashed then stopped.

I fell down on my knees and I just broke down, it's too much, I can't take it anymore. I covered my tearstained face in my small hands.

We really need to do something but I just feel so helpless and I just can't do anything! Right now I wish I could just fall asleep and never wake up; I wish none of this had ever happened! I wish my mom was back with me and my dad and that we were all together, as a family. I wish that Kai didn't have to go through what he had to and that he and his family were together again. I wish we could live in peace with out those creeps out there! I wish, I wish everything was ok but it isn't I know I have to realize that but this all feels like a dream. It feels like I'm gonna wake up and none of this would have happened.

I was just sitting there crying and I felt two strong and protective arms embrace my small, shaking body. Then they started slightly rocking me back and forth in a calming manner, it felt soothing.

"Calm down Angel, calm down" they whispered soothingly in my ear. I knew it was Kai; I held on to his purple shirt tightly and covered my face in his shirt crying.

"I tried to be strong… but… they, they just took… took it… too far!" I said between sobs.

"Shhhh, it's alright. Cry, let it all out" he said softly to me.

I calmed down a bit and cried silently.

I knew the others were watching. Max, Ray, they didn't say a word. They stopped and watched; they'd never seen Kai this way or seen me in this state.

"Let's practice" I said after I had calmed down in between sniffles.

"Ok" Kai said knowing that I could take care of myself, that's another thing he trusts me and my decisions, I would respect his only sometimes he's just to stubborn for his own good.

"Let's get practicing!" he said coldly to the other two.

Both Ray and Max launched at the same time.

I launched not long after, Elzer and I were happier now that I got everything I needed to out.

I let Elzer's power flow through me again, it felt good.

"Ok, I want both of you, Max and Ray to come at me" I said, I felt that I needed to be able to defeat them both if I wanted to beat those disgraceful fiends.

Kai's POV

We were outside practicing while Daniel and Tyson went to look for a phone.

I made an obstacle course for her and we ran it I put in some of my strength with hers. Dranzer made it with no mistakes. I turned around and saw Angel letting Elzer go freely for a little then crash. Her head was hung low and I guess she lost her concentration and crashed.

She collapsed, crying with her head face in her hands, I knew I had to do something. I couldn't stand feeling useless so I went up to her and hugged her. I relaxed myself so that she would relax a little and I rocked her softly back and forth.

I could feel her shaking.

I can understand what she's feeling, I feel it too; I just want to break down. I can't though; I can't remember the last time I did. In a way I as I was calming her I was letting out all my feelings through her. It felt good but I still felt useless and I hate it.

"Calm down Angel, calm down" I whispered to her.

She held on to my purple shirt tightly and covered her face in my shirt crying.

"I tried to be strong… but… they, they just took… took it… too far!" I heard her say between sobs.

"Shhhh, it's alright. Cry, let it all out" I told her softly.

I felt her calm down a bit as she cried silently.

The two others had stopped their training and watched us, I knew they were. I could feel their stares; they'd never seen me or her like this. I didn't like it but I couldn't help but feel like I had to do something to make her feel better, even though she is my girlfriend it's still strange acting like this. I've never had a girlfriend before; I never thought girls really mattered that way. Now I know what I feel and I like it I've found my love and I'll do anything to keep her.

"Let's practice" I heard her say after she had calmed down a little between sniffles.

"Ok" was all I could say, but I couldn't blame her I want to break down and cry to but I want to be stronger so that I won't have to. I have to be strong for her and for the others, I know it seems like I don't care but I do even if it's just a little, I guess it still counts.

I would want to practice to if I were Angel so I agreed.

"Let's get practicing!" I said coldly to Ray and Max.

They got the message and got to practicing. They launched at the same time, they were going to go against each other. Angel launched not long after.

"Ok, I want both of you, Max and Ray to come at me" Angel said with a determined tone in her voice.

Normal POV

"Are you sure Angel? I mean…" Max began.

"Yes, I'm sure. Now do it, it's just the two of you against me" Angel said with deep determination.

"Alright Angel, you asked for it!" Ray said attacking her.

"Elzer dodge and attack Draciel" Angel instructed.

Elzer did as he was told. He dodged Driger and attacked Draciel.

"Draciel, on defense!" shouted Max.

"Don't forget about me Angel!" Ray said reminding her he was still in the game, "ATTACK DRIGER!" he commanded.

She smirked, "you fell right into my trap… Elzer avoid Driger's attack now!"

Elzer moved out of the way and Driger crashed in to Draciel's blade sending it out of the stadium.

"(gasp) how, how'd you move so fast and get so strong?" Max asked.

"I was just wondering the same thing" Ray said agreeing with Max.

"It's the bond that she has developed with Elzer. Her bond makes her stronger and faster. You could do it too if you really tried and concentrating. Dranzer and I can do that too" Kai explained for her. During this time Angel managed to knock out Driger.

"Elzer and I have a strong bond that we have developed over time, even though I haven't had him long, his desire to help me reach my goal and my determination are all he needed to come and help me" Angel further explained.

As Ray and Max though about it, Kai spoke up once more.

"Instead of our normal training we get to practice intertwining our strength with that of out bitbeasts strengths" he said.

"Ok, I think that'll be easier than what we usually do" Max shrugged.

"That's fine with me" Ray said.

They let their blades go freely and they concentrated and tried to contact their bitbeasts again like they had the previous night.

(With Tyson and Danny)

"Are you sure you saw a phone down here?" Tyson asked Danny.

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure, why?" Danny asked in return.

"No reason, it's just that I wish we could get there faster! We've been walking for ages!" he complained. He really wanted to save Hilary but he couldn't do it if they were stranded out in the middle of nowhere.

"I'm sorry Tyson" Danny said out of the blue after about 10 min of silence.

"Huh? For, for what?" he asked confused.

"For everything that has happened" Danny responded.

"As long as we save Hilary I don't care about anything else" Tyson told him.

"You really lover, I mean real, true love right?" Danny asked.

"Hmm… yeah I do, I've never felt like this for anyone. Ever since I first met her I was always nervous around her and kept making an idiot of myself. But then I just told her I loved her… I wonder if Kai and Ray feel the way I do when they're with their girlfriends" Tyson said.

Danny stayed quiet for a while, longing for someone to love like Tyson, Ray and Kai. He thought that Max probably felt like him, lonely and misplaced. Everyone had a pair but them.

"I wish I had someone to love like that" he said looking out to the distance as if looking for his one true love out there.

"I never thought I'd find her so soon, I always thought I'd be single until I was at least 18 or something, I'm not too good with girls" Tyson admitted.

Danny laughed lightly, "She loves you back, and I can see why you're happy most of the time and why you are so mad right now"

"Hmm… you'll find her, you'll find the one that's right for you, I bet you anything Angel will try to help" he said and they both laughed.

They kept on walking in silence, the trail was long.

After what seemed like hours they kept on walking, then Tyson suddenly interrupted the silence, "I SEE IT! I SEE IT!" Tyson yelled running towards a phone booth in the distance.

Once Danny caught sight of it he sprinted towards it catching up with Tyson.

When they reached it Tyson picked up the phone and inserted some change.

"Umm, do you know the number?" Tyson asked sweatdropping. Danny sweatdropped also giving him a business card Mr. Dickinson had given him.

"Thanks"

"No prob"

Tyson dialed the number and his secretary answered, "hello, you have reach the BBA chairman's phone who may I ask is speaking?" she greeted.

"Umm, hi, uh, I really need to speak with Mr. D its urgent!" he told her.

"Alright, please hold on for a minute" she responded.

A little later Mr. Dickinson came on.

"Hello, this is Mr. Dickinson" he answered with that cheery attitude he always had.

"Hey Mr. Dickinson" Tyson greeted, "something urgent came up and we have to get back to civilization"

"Oh, ok, what is this urgent occasion?" he asked.

"Oh, um, Angel said she wasn't feeling well and Hilary sent us to tell you that we needed to leave now, I'm not to sure why but we found the phone down the road and yeah… probably girl thing" Tyson managed to come up with a white lie so he wouldn't have to worry the old man any more than needed. He already had enough to worry about.

"Alright Tyson, you go back to the others and I'll have a bus sent up there by morning" Mr. D concluded.

"'kay, thanks a lot" Tyson agreed.

"Take care until then and I'll see you at the tournament in a couple weeks" Mr. Dickinson said his good byes.

"Yeah, thanks again, until then" Tyson said.

"We'll have a bus here by morning" he told Danny after he'd hung up the phone.

"Ok, but why'd you lie to Mr. Dickinson?" Danny asked.

"I figured he already had enough to worry about and he didn't need all the real details" Tyson explained.

"I guess you're right, you know your different now"

"Different… how?"

"Well, you seem more, more… I don't know, more… mature and serious, I guess"

"So what are you saying, I'm immature?" he asked getting irritated.

"Well no, but…"

"Whatever, how can you expect me to be happy and everything when everything is messed up at the moment?" he asked.

"I don't know, It's just kind of weird, I guess" Danny said to him.

From there they walked in silence until they got back to the cabin.

(With Angel and the group)

They were all tying to concentrate on using both their bitbeasts strength and their own. Angel, Kai and Tyson had already mastered this but it was needed if the others were going to help. They would need all the strength they could get.

"I hope they found a phone…" Angel said drifting off.

She was wondering what her brother was doing at the moment.

"They should have already found it, it wasn't to far from here" Kai told her.

"Hmm, I just can't help but be worried after all that has happened…" she said trailing off once again,

"I know, they'll be back soon, just wait and see" he said to her as he hugged her loosely.

"Thanks" she said at his attempt to make her feel better, it had worked slightly.

Then he smiled at her, she couldn't help but smile back. He knew it would cheer her up that's why he did it, that's why he smiled.

"You know one of these days I'll get you to laugh, just watch, I'll do it" she warned him, her smile not leaving her lips.

After a while Max caught sight of Danny coming down the road and told Angel.

"Hey, Angel, Tyson and your brother are coming back!" he yelled.

Kai and Angel came out of the cabin.

"I can't wait to go back to the dojo" Ray said.

"Me neither" Max agreed.

When Angel's brother and Tyson finally reached the cabin Angel and Ray came up to them with Max and Kai not to far behind.

"We found the phone and called Mr. Dickinson, he said that there'd be a bus here tomorrow morning" Danny said.

"Ok, that works" Ray responded for the others.

"Angel?" Tyson asked.

"Yeah, what?" Angel responded.

"Umm… if Mr. Dickinson asks, we had to go home because you weren't feeling well and Hilary said we had to leave now" Tyson told her.

"Ok, wait, why?" she said suspiciously.

"That's what I told him" he reasoned.

"Why?" asked Max.

"Well, he has a lot to worry about already right? So I figured that it wouldn't hurt if he didn't know the whole truth" he told them.

"Oh, ok then" Max answered.

"Are you sure that's what you told him?" Angel asked.

"Yeah, I'm sure" Tyson said.

"Ok"

"We need to practice" Kai said.

"Then let's get practicing" Tyson said.

Everyone looked at him.

"Are you sure you're the real Tyson?" asked Angel.

"YES! I'M THE REAL TYSON!" he yelled and got his beyblade ready to launch, "are we going to practice or what?" he asked.

Everyone shrugged the way Tyson was acting off.

I'm ending it here, I'm sorry once again for not updating sooner! I REALLY AM SORRY! It's just there's so much to do here at my house!
