It was now the early hours of the morning and everyone was now asleep. But as Yoh and Anna slept the window in the room opened and a figure climbed inside.

The figure walked over to Anna and ran a finger down her face the figure was spike.

"Now don't you look cute when you're a sleep" he whispered.

Spike pulled out a piece of paper and begin to scribble something on to it.

Next morning Anna woke to find and envelope on her pillow. She opened it and found a drawn picture of her sleeping and below was a message, which made Anna drop the picture when she read it Anna, dropped the picture the girl began to tremble. Yoh woke up to see Anna's face twisted with fear.

"What's wrong Anna?" he asked.

Anna turned to Yoh and pointed to the piece of paper.

"Spike was here last night" Anna voice quivered.

Yoh picked up the picture and read the message.

"Hope to see you soon spike" Yoh read.

Yoh realised that spike must have done something to Anna while he was out. Yoh went over to her.

"Come here" he said.

Anna grabbed Yoh and he held Anna as tears begin to fall from her eyes.

"I'm so afraid Yoh"

"Don't be I won't let him hurt you Anna"

Anna decided not to tell Yoh what had happened outside the ring because she knew Yoh would go after spike.

Latter that day everyone had split up into groups to search town for Kyle. The final of the tournament would take place 2 days from now so Yoh and Anna decided to join Alex and keyran to search for Kyle.

"So where shall we head first" Yoh asked.

"The bar in the town square see if the owner knows anything" keyran replied.

As the 4 headed to the town square Anna noticed Alex was lagging behind a bit.

"You all right" Anna asked the boy.

"I'm scared Anna" Alex said.

"I know just how you feel Alex when claw kidnapped Yoh I was scared too"

Anna put her hand on Alex's shoulder.

"Kyle will be fine don't worry I'm sure we'll find him soon enough" she said.

"Thanks Anna" Alex replied.

As Anna and Alex continued to talk Yoh was lost in his own thoughts. He wanted to know what spike had done to scare Anna so much. But he wasn't going to ask her what had happened because he didn't want to put Anna though whatever spike had done again. And spike wasn't yoh's only problem because someone still had his friend manta. Everyone soon arrived at the bar.

"You 3 wait here" keyran said.

The 3 kids nodded. Keyran headed into the bar and walked up to the bar tender.

"Hello there what can I do for you?" the bar tender asked.

"I'm looking for someone a guy called spike" keyran replied.

"Your looking for spike is you. You a friend of his" the bar tender said.

"Something like that. Do you know where I can find him" keyran asked.

The bar tender shook his head.

"I'm afraid not but he's in here most nights so if you come back tonight you might catch him" he said.

"All right thanks" keyran said.

Keyran turned and left the bar.

"Did you find anything out? "Alex asked.

"Well the barman says spike comes here most nights so if we can't find him this is the place to come" keyran explained.

"So what shall we do now?" Yoh asked.

"I think we should see if we can find anymore of spike's hang outs" keyran suggested.

As keyran and the others left the bar tender watched from his window. As soon as they were out of view the bar tender picked up a phone and dialled a number.

"Spike it's Dom" the bar tender said.

"Hey Dom what's up" spike asked.

"I just had a guy in the bar looking for you" Dom explained.

"Oh yeah. Was he alone" spike asked.

"No there was 2 boys and girl with him" Dom replied.

"Was the girl wearing a red bandanna" spike added.

"Yeah why do you ask?" Dom said.

"Oh no reason. Thanks for calling me Dom" spike replied.

"Anytime" Dom added.

Spike put the phone down.

"So your searching for Kyle are you Anna. Looks like it's time to make my next move"

Spike smiled to himself.

"Dash" spike yelled.

Dash entered the room.

"I want you to find Ricky tell him to meet me in the town centre" spike told the boy.

Dash nodded.

"You got it," he said.

Dash turned and left the room.

"Now the fun really begins," spike said to himself.

Spike laughed.

Keyran and the others spent 2 hours asking around but no one seemed to know where spikes hang outs were but it was obvious everyone knew who spike was. Soon it was time for them to meet up with everyone else and keyran and the others had arrived at the meeting place. As they waited Alex begin to think about Kyle.

Alex's flashback.

An 8-year-old Alex was watching Kyle train. Alex tried to copy Kyle but soon fell over.

"Hey you all right squirt" Kyle asked.

Alex sat up.

"Ow that hurt" the boy said

"It takes a lot of practice to master a Marshall art," Kyle told Alex.

Kyle helped Alex up.

"You've got to start with the simple stuff first. Let me show you"

Kyle stood in fighting stance.

"Stand like this and close your eyes"

Alex did as his brother said.

"Concentrate on your breathing. Make your self totally calm" Kyle added.

Kyle walked towards Alex.

"That's good now open your eyes and try and hit me if you can" Kyle said.

Alex tried to punch Kyle but he blocked it.

"Nice punch now try and break my blocks" Kyle continued.

Alex continued to fight and eventually got a punch in.

"Well done Alex you did it"

"Kyle"

"Yeah squirt"

"There's something I don't understand"

"What's that"?

"That guy who attacked will. How was I able to fight him I'm just a little kid" Alex said.

"Because you were angry," Kyle replied.

"So does that mean I'll only be strong when I'm angry?" Alex asked.

"At the moment but with time and training you'll become a really strong fighter. Who knows one day you might become stronger than I am" Kyle answered

"You think so," Alex said excitedly.

Kyle nodded

"Now are you ready to go again" Kyle asked.

"Yeah" Alex shouted.

The two continued to practice and Alex was really excited this was the first time Alex had every trained with Kyle.

End of flashback.

Now the events of 3 years ago played though Alex's head. The secret order had taken Foxly Island over and it had been up to Kyle and the rest of the gang to free Foxly. It was during their adventures they first met the white tiger gang and members of the secret order who included Ricky dead eye grey wolf red fox mask and the 2nd in command of the secret order shadow. Alex was suddenly snapped out of his thoughts by yoh's voice.

"Were getting nowhere it doesn't look like anyone knows where spike hangs out," Yoh said.

"Maybe there just too scared to say anything," a voice said.

Everyone stopped dead they all knew that voice it was spike. Everyone looked around but couldn't see him.

"Where the hell is he," Anna said.

"Show your self spike or are you afraid" keyran shouted.

Spike laughed.

"Me afraid of you oh that's a good one keyran" spike said.

Spike came out of a side street.

"I think you should be afraid of me" spike added.

"You going to take the 4 of us on" keyran asked.

"Oh there's no need for that," another voice said.

Everyone turned to see Ricky.

"Now what do we do" Alex said.

"I'm afraid there's nothing you can do little brother" spike said.

"You guys should just give up now there's no way you can beat both of us," Ricky added.

"We'll just see about that" keyran told Ricky and spike.

"I was hoping to do things the easy way. Oh well we'll just have to do this the hard way"

Spike grinned and he and Ricky got ready to fight.

To be continued.

Will keyran and the others be able to beat spike and Ricky find out in the next island of heroes.

Yet another cliffhanger for you what do you think is going to happen next please tell me what you think. I also thought I'd put in a bit about when Kyle and the others first met the secret order and the white tiger gang. Alex's flashback is taken from Foxly island secret order.
