I have my recital and I have to leave but be prepared cause I'm going to hurry up with the next chapters.

Hello Readers, I wanted to tell you that I received a score of 1 my recital. It is rated from 1 being the best to 5 being the worst. My friends that were in 8th grade received 1s too. My 7th grade friends received 2s but 1s and 2s are still very good scores. My solo and my quintet went perfectly with 1 mistake in my solo and no mistakes in my quintet. My computer partner who plays the sax got a 1 but he would have died if he had gotten a 2.

Chapter 9: Feelings for thought

Kai's Viewpoint

Dranzer could talk who knew? Apparently Emily did because she took that knowledge and made a chip so they could easily speak English. I wonder what Dranzer and Exzata are talking about.

"Kai, you want to go get something to eat? We haven't eaten anything in a while. Would you like to come. I'm making everyone dinner." He stood up and nodded.

"You cooking is something, I have to see." I laughed and then went to the kitchen to prepare the meal. I was going to make Chicken Strips, bread, carrot soup and cake for desert.

"Emily, this meal is great; I didn't know you could cook. You should cook for us all the time." Michael said stuffing food into his face like Tyson.

"No chance of that. Me cooking is just for Christmas and maybe spring break feast. So what does everyone else think?" I especially wanted to know Judy and Kai's critiquing of my cooking. Judy was a great cook and Kai just always had something to say so that's why I wanted to know.

"Emily this food is wonderful, nicely done; you should cook for us more often." I nodded and sighed. Cooking was now something I liked but too much work for a girl who is only 19. It's parents and chefs' jobs.

"I guess I could make meals a little more often but it's just not something I enjoy doing too much work. We pay people to do this. I have a lot on my mind than to be making this food for you guys but I don't mind. So let's eat." I was about to sit down and Kai looked away. Max and Miriam sighed and continued to eat.

"Nice meal Emily, could be better though, like your beyblading skills." I sighed and just put my face in my hands and shook my head.

"I've had it. You never try to better yourself just bother me. I've had it!" I grabbed my plate and ran to my room. Everyone was wondering what had gotten into me.

"Emily, open the door. You've been in there for 3 hours. Are you doing sulking yet?" Dani said as she screamed at me through the door.

I sat there in my room; Staring at the door that led to my exercising room. I didn't feel like exercising today or in a long time. The door kept shaking. Would she leave, ever? Something turned the lock and opened the door. I stood there in shock. He ran to me and covered my mouth. I tried to scream but he hit me with something and I was knocked out. I only said one word before I passed out 'Tala.'

I awoke strapped to a table with leather straps and ropes. I was scared frantic and wanted to know what was going on. I remembered something very bad. Kai's Dranzer and Exzata were both locked up in high security room behind my room. Kai couldn't get to them to use them to save me. I felt weak and drowsy.

"Hi Emily, you have the ultiblade. You made it, you gave it your energy and part of your feelings. You trained the blade to have feelings, have weaknesses. I'm sorry that you're going to have to end this way." He held up a gun and pointed it to my head. I wanted to scream but I couldn't. I had no voice. He laughed.

I mouthed "What did you do to me?" I cried without a sound, just little sounds from me moving and shaking as he grasped my arm to steady me from moving.

"I poisoned you, only a certain can cure this drug I made. Kai knows this drug well because it was used on him and I a lot. It was hard to control our actions, powers and then we would use up all our energy and pass out so we would battle our best." I wanted to cry for Borris doing that to them and for myself. "It's extremely painful isn't it." I closed my eyes and nodded but it took so much energy to do.

"Where's Kai?" I managed to squeak. He held up my head and looked at me.

"You know you shouldn't be worried for him because is just a mental wreck. He's trying to find you because it's so hard for him to leave you. You're in a slow process of dying so you should worry more for yourself." He said laying my head down. I couldn't see and could barely breathe.

"Why worry, Kai is just like me. If I'm gone than you still have a major enemy. No worries forever for me. If I die here I die is pain but happy with the hope that I've done all I can." I couldn't notice anything. I just heard words like I was in a coma or was I in coma.

"Stubborn as Kai, polite as Kai and as non-contact as Kai; she's a female version of Kai. If only she knew that her death is the undoing of everything she worked toward." I just realized. I had locked his blade and the beymetal blade in the room. He had no blade and all my work was in there. He had nothing of me to help him.

I couldn't move, I was just here strapped to the table and poisoned. I wished someone would help me. I'm in a coma and wish I was in good condition to help but I'm useless. I wish I was like Kai made some of the fake things of our personalities matched but on the inside we are both so different. I wish I could live but I'm really helping bring Kai down. 'I'm ready to Die.'

Kai's Viewpoint- Earlier

Emily had just thrown a fit about my playful comment about cooking. She was acting really weird for her today. Usually she'd come back with another playful comment and we'd go on but her running off was not normal something was wrong.

"Nice Job Kai. Apparently even when she's upset you're mean to her. Uh." Dani ran off to check on Emily. Why was Emily upset usually we would have known why by now but not this time.

After a few minutes, I stood up and started to leave. "I'd recommend leaving her alone Kai. Emily's really upset about something today. She won't tell anyone but it's bothering her so leave her alone." Eddy said as I left.

"I wasn't planning on bothering her. I know how to act when someone doesn't want to talk to people. I'm good at it." I said storming off and returning to my room.

I watched a few beyblade matches on TV then just studied some strategies and did some homework for our classes. It was easy but I didn't want to do it before we left and with me being in the hospital and then leaving time hasn't been on my side.

I went to talk to Emily I'm sure that she's fine after a couple hours. I knocked but there wasn't any answer on the door and I decided to leave she probably fell asleep sulking or watching TV or something.

Michael and Eddy ran down the hallways frantically looking in every room. "Kai have you seen Dani?"

"No, I thought she was in with Emily but Emily's asleep so maybe she just went home for Christmas. I'm sure that she's fine." They nodded and calmed down and went back to there rooms.

I watched TV for about 20 minutes and decided to check on Emily to see if she knew if Dani went home. Dani is a wonderer but according to Emily you can always find her when you need her.

"Emily, Emily." I kept knocking hoping she would stop ignoring me and give up and answer the door. I didn't here any sounds. I was sure that she'd be awake. I decided to let myself in I opened the door and no one was there. No sign of Emily. I calmly walked to Judy's office.

"Hello Kai, so did they find Dani? Do you know if Emily is feeling better?" She said looking up from her book at me and noticed I a little bothered by her question. "So Emily isn't better, well she's be fine soon."

"No she's gone, like kidnapped I think." Judy ran to the meeting bell and everyone met in her office to discuss what to do.

"Kai says Emily has been kidnapped. Has anyone seen her?" No one spoke and we all hoped that she wasn't hurt or that she just walked of grounds but she like Dani would have been seen or told someone.

"What's the plan Judy, we need to find Emily as fast as we can. Who knows what Tala has done to her so far?" Everyone looked at Max who just looked away and Miriam started crying. Max was whispering things in her ear and she started to calm down.

"Kai, did Emily give you Exzata yet?" I shook my head. "Let me see if I can create a small support disk for Dranzer so you can have better chances with Tala. You're good but even you can do even better."

"I don't have Dranzer with me or here either. I don't have him Emily does but I can go get him with Exzata." I ran out of the room and went to Emily's room. I grabbed her glasses, her pillow, and her hairbrush. Hair brush for hair sample, glasses for iris scan, and her pillow carries skin cells of hers than will open the door. It's a good thing Tala isn't as smart as me or he could have gotten the bit-beasts pretty easily. I guess Emily is right.

The door opened and I walked in and turned to the first door on my right and walked in on the two bit-beasts conversations. They sighed and looked upset especially Exzata.

"Emily has been kidnapped." I said as simply put as I could.

"We know. The cameras picked it up in her bedroom maybe an hour ago. I wish I could have done something but we can't get out of here. I'm surprised that you could. So what's the plan." I sighed. I really didn't have a plan. "Great no plan." Exzata was a blade that had no official owner and wasn't a bit-beast that had powers it just stayed there helped the original bit-beast become even more powerful.

"Kai, it's easy. Battle Tala, win and take Emily back." Dranzer had my attitude, make is so simple that it's confusing.

"It's not going to be that easy but I guess with your help Exzata it is going to be." The dog bit-beast smiled and went into her blade. "You too, Dranzer." Dranzer went into my blade and I put his chip on Exzata's blade.

I took a look at the video footage of her kidnapping. I turned on the tape.

Tape

Tala and Connie burst through the door and Connie covered her mouth. Tala gave her a shot of Melodeon. She fainted and fell backwards. Tala grabbed her body and jumped out the window.

Tape End

I slowly walked out of Emily's room and into the hall and back to the office. "Kai, do you have it?" Max asked while Miriam looked out the window next to him.

I held up the beymetal blade in all it's glory and they all just stared at it. "Kai, how did you manage to get through all her security?" Judy asked wondering how he had gotten through all the traps and things but it was easy because he needed to use that when he was at the abbey to escape. "Did you find any clues or anything in her room?" I threw the disk that I had copied the tape onto.

They all watched in amazement. They didn't know exactly what poison Emily had been shot with but I was glad they didn't. I knew exactly what it was and what it was doing to her. I didn't want to tell them but I hoped he didn't give her anything else while he had her in her possession.

"Kai, what's the plan? I'm going." Miriam said turning back to the window.

"No, I'm doing this on my own. You don't understand what he's going to do to me and what he already is doing and has done to Emily. I can't put anyone else in danger." I walked off and Max put his arm on my shoulder.

"I'm coming too no matter what you say. I'm going." I don't think you're listening to me Max, alone means alone.

"Us too." Michael said with Eddy and Steve by his side.

"See Kai, you can't get rid of us that easily. Emily is like a sister to us and we can't just let you go on your own and save her. You're going with all of us." I sighed. I remember what Emily said about the dangers of this blade it could happen again.

"Emily told me this blade is a danger to anyone in the area where it is used and she's scared that I might get hurt by using it so she'd kill me if I brought you into an area of complete danger. You're not coming and that's final." I walked a little and they all sighed and nodded.

"You better bring Emily back in one piece or you'll be in for it." I nodded and walked out of the room. Michael was right and saying I'd be in for it. If I didn't save her, than the whole world would be in for it, especially me.

I went to my room and grabbed my launcher and left the building. It would all be my fault if the world came to an end if I lost than Tala would get Exzata and that is a power that no person can control. I don't control her she thinks for herself and helps increase the power of Dranzer. That power with Tala would end the world.

I was stopped by Judy. "Here Kai, Exzata knows what it is. She'll tell you what it is when she thinks you need it and how to use. Don't worry about it. Let's just hope it doesn't come to that, okay." I nodded took the package and put it in my pocket with my launcher.

'Exzata, Dranzer, I don't know exactly how this is going to end but now that you understand and can talk to people. If something happens to me make sure that we still win, save Emily, and get rid of Tala forever.' I don't know why but I was sure that something was going to happen and pull me and Emily apart. I didn't want that to happen but I was sure that something of that sort was going to happen but as long as she is safe than I'm fine. I wouldn't want to save her into a horrible world like it would be if Tala ruled the world.

I walked into the building that was Tala's headquarters. It was very empty and I was in the main room. I wanted to know what was going on. I was sure I sensed major bit-beast power coming from this room. I saw something up a head of me.

I walked closer to it. It was Emily on a table strapped down. She wasn't moving. I laid my head on her heart. She's breathing but just barely and her pulse is very weak.

Melodeon was one of the worst drugs in the world for this reason. It works just like speed. It takes all the energy it can and uses it up a period of 10 minutes an average beybattle length and then you collapse to reserve energy for the next round. It kills your whole body system but you can't control your body and are just poisoning yourself and it's dangerous. The main difference is that it keeps happening over and over once you take it once. You can control when it starts but you can't sleep, breathe, or do anything normally. Most people in the abbey died from a chemical imbalance and they were too weak. It made me stronger but it had horrible disaffects. I don't believe Boris would give it to us when we were just growing up. Tala and I had both been treated once we escaped from the abbey but it's a good thing that Mr. Dickinson helped me.

I looked at her body it looked fine just weak and frail but usually it was just frail and very strong but the drug was damaging to her system. She started wiggling and I wondered what she was dreaming about. She looked like she was now getting the full dose of the drug and it was hurting her very bad. "I'm ready to die." Emily said and her body was slowing down.

I looked at her body and untied her. She seemed to relax but she was still breathing very hard and very slow. "You can't die." I pressed my lips against hers and left her there to die if she wanted to or she could fight it. If I could she could because we have equal levels.

"Hello Kai, isn't that sweet. You remember the problems we had with Melodeon don't you. It's sad to see someone on a death bed isn't it Kai. I guess I need to tell you something else. It isn't just Melodeon in there. It's a tiny percent of led. Not enough to kill her by itself but enough to put her through a lot." I glared evilly at him.

"Why would you kill Emily, Tala? Are you stupider than you look?" He started laughing.

"So I got rid of someone who could have made me the ruler of the world, so I destroyed a friend of yours, so I destroyed the only person you related to, so, you're point is." Tala didn't know I had the blade, he knew that no one having it was better than me having it. Too much good came out of Emily being alive. I liked the good she brought to the world but it was a little too much for me sometimes but way too much for Tala.

"Emily is a wonderful person and I'm sure that if you were good she would have helped you. I mean she made friends wherever she goes. She's like a sister to Max, Michael, Eddy and Steve so why would you want her gone. I mean we'd be sad but you think we are going to let her die that easily." Was he crazy, I wouldn't let him win and neither would Emily.

"Then let's go and see how our little tale ends. I mean our book is going to end with either of us dying or both. So what will it be; I don't care if I die because I already am. I took tons of ounces of Melodeon and I'm fine, so let's go." This is going to be an simple strategic match. I keep on defense until the melodeon's strength part wears out then I go offense and it's over.

We let our blades go and we just evenly matched each other than he went for a final blow not a little pat is what it felt like. It caused a major drop in defense power levels but he was weakening and Exzata had taken over. She beat him down and took him out and the beyblade smashed into his stomach and knocked the wind out of him.

The antidote fell onto the floor I took it and gave it to Emily. I knew it was the antidote because it was the same color as what I was given a long time ago. He probably had it for himself for after our battle but Emily was a lot better use to the world than he was.

3 months later

I carried her to a hospital to get treated it turned out that she was in horrible shape. The antidote stopped the Melodeon but not the led. It messed up her up pretty bad. It was a good thing she was a head by 2 months on homework and assignments. She had worked a lot ahead of our classes just incase something happened to her. She hasn't woken up from her coma yet. It's now her birthday and I hope she's going to be waking up. It's spring vacation and I'm happy because I get to see her again. Even if she's asleep I haven't see her in 2 months and I've had to do a lot of things on my own and I haven't had someone on my level to blade with.

I still have the scars from the battle. The metal wires that snapped and scared my arms when the came down. I have marks from the wood that had fallen on top of me during our battle. It reminded me of all the stuff I went through during the battle but Emily was a constant reminder. She wasn't there anymore. I was bored with all the classes and I didn't have anyone to tease anymore and I was so annoyed with the girls at school and Sydney.

I'm arriving and here is Max and Miriam to come and meet me. I really hope Emily is doing better than she was when I left.

I got off the plane and looked around for Max and Miriam. I couldn't see them so I just waited for them to come and pick me up. I didn't see them but then I saw someone who I couldn't believe, it was her.

"Emily." She smiled and she walked over to me. I smirked and I was so glad to see her.

"I see you missed me." I just smirked and we leaned in and kissed. "I see you missed me a lot."

"Of course I did you are my partner is so many ways. So when did you get out?"

"I got out maybe a month ago. I had to regain my energy and my beyblading skills. I'm sure they are back up to your very high standards. I'm sure that I probably won't be up to my perfect standards." I smirked and then I grabbed her arms and pulled her close to my body.

I turned her head and then whispered in her ear. "You're a perfectionist and you should know from all the problems we have had that no one is perfect and you by expecting too much of yourself you're ruining your life. It is best to just have very high expectations and always be your best." I brought my lips to Emily's and we met in a very long kiss.

"Thanks, I really missed you too and I'll keep that in mind. Now let's go back to by old home." We arrived home and everything was back to normal. Emily had put them on a regiment and schedule with exercises and they were in tip top shape.

"Hey Kai, I bet you're extremely happy that Emily's all well and happy." Me and Emily started laughing and Michael's question was easily answered with I laughs.

"I don't think I want to know what happened at the airport when you went to pick up Kai, Emily." Max and Miriam got up and went to their room. They had been staying with the All Stars.

"I'm sure all you don't want to know." Emily said looking at Kai who just smiled wickedly at her and they went off to only I know where.
