Adrian and Ana, Ana and Adrian. As if I had a chance of getting with her anyway, she hates me. I just had to live with it. 'Yeah right.' You can say what you want but I'm happy for her. 'You happy?' I sighed burying that annoying voice sent to torture me. But I was telling the truth, I was happy for her. There may've been a part of me that was disappointed but I had no chance really…not even a tiny one.

We arrived back at the hotel and my cold wasn't getting any better. If Katy wasn't in danger I would've taken care of my cold like I said. I was waiting for Katy to present me with her honey and lemon concoction but she was missing.

I went out of the hotel room to find her training in the abandoned field with a pit in it. She was training very hard and didn't seem to care about anything else. 'I feel so unloved!' Quiet you she's trying to release the bit beast by the look of things. "COME ON!" She didn't quit and kept going until she had nothing left to give.

Katy fell to her knees and was out of breath. I muffled a sneeze as I approached her blowing my nose in some tissue. "Your nose is pink." She said turning her head to look at me. "No kidding." I said sarcastically. Then a look of realisation appeared on her face. "Oh! I said I'd make you something didn't I?" I nodded and she picked up her blade.

KATY

I was about to head back to the hotel but Kai stopped me. "You can't quit now, you were very close."

"No I wasn't." He gave me a look as if to say don't argue with me. He kneeled behind me and took my arms in to his hands. "Get in to a position to launch your beyblade." I'd better get this right the first time. He needed that hot drink soon because he sounded terrible. "Ok." I lifted my arms and he adjusted my arms and legs so I could achieve the best launch. "Ready?" I nodded and launched my blade. It was the best launch I ever made and my blade sped away from me in a straight line.

Three seconds later and Aura erupted from my blade. "Right now connect your mind with hers and you'll achieve a connexion giving you more power."

"How do I do that?" What he said was just confusing to me. "Concentrate on trying to talk to her and she'll hear you." I closed my eyes and concentrated as hard as I could. 'Hello? Hello? Oh this is so stupid.' I thought. 'Yeah but it works.' My eyes snapped open to see the white angel looking at me. 'Aura?' The angel nodded and I could see her clearly. She had four brilliantly white wings with clothes like Fallen but white. She definitely lived up to her name, she shined with a white aura. "Cool."

"Indeed. Do you feel her power?" I nodded feeling powerful and thanked Kai for his help. "Now do you think you could…heh…make the drink? Hassho!"

"Poor Kai. Come on, let's see what we can do for you." He took me back to the hotel, not before bought the honey and lemon juice we needed. Kai went to bed and I told him to wait for me there. I used the coffee maker in our main hotel to boil the water and I mixed the ingredients together. I knocked on the door with the steaming beverage. He tried to reply but sneezed instead. He sounded really bad and I wondered if he was going to be alright for tomorrow.

"Here." I sat on the end of his bed to make sure he drank it. Kai breathed it in first and sipped it. He seemed to be enjoying it and drank it down. "Good?" He nodded and lay back to go to sleep. "See you on the plane tomorrow."

The sleeping arrangement went. Ana and Kara, Sam and Max, Ray and Tyson, Kenny and Justin, Adrian was sharing a bed with Justin and finally I was sleeping in the same room as Tila. Kai was on his own so he could get a good night's sleep without anyone disturbing him in the night.

Adrian and Ana were most definitely back together so things were turning back the way the were. Kara cracked a smile, Sam was happy again instead of angry, Tila was no longer jealous and Justin wasn't a psychopath anymore. Everything was working well. All that was needed was for Kai to get over his stupid cold. But what would happen after we go to Japan? I've never been in another country before and it wasn't Russia. How was I going to get back? Now I was scared about it. I'm sure something would be figured out when I get there but I can't help feeling like this. Now I couldn't sleep…great.

Three hours later I went out the bedroom and in to the main room wrapped in my blanket. I walked up to the balcony and looked over the city from the glass doors. I sighed and silent tears rolled down my cheeks. "What are you doing out of bed?" I quickly wiped away my tears so Kai couldn't see I'd been crying. Then I turned to look at him. "Nothing."

"You've been crying." Damn! "Why are you out of bed?"

"Don't change the subject!" He scolded me and I flinched without meaning to. He sighed and sat down on the couch. "So are you going to tell me why your awake or do I have to get it out of you some other way?" What did he mean by that? Kai can be scary when he isn't even trying to be. I had to come up with something quick. "Well?" I didn't want to tell the truth in case it sounded stupid. "I had a nightmare." The age old excuse that never failed a small kid like me. "About what?" Was he trying to play therapist tonight or what? "About Boris's men kidnapping me."

"I see." Ha! But I had to admit I was still freaked out about it. "Does your mum know your ok?"

"Ana rang her up before we came back to the hotel." My mind was racing, but he believed me. I was looking like a frightened rabbit after all. "Did they hurt you?"

"They looked after my needs and nothing more." I said shivering at the images of my kidnapping crossing my mind. "How did they capture you?"

Flashback

I was walking home by myself in broad day light. A van pulled up and a man dragged me in it kicking and screaming my lungs out. When they put me in the van I had a blindfold and a piece of heavy duty tape put over my mouth. I couldn't see anything. They only removed the tape so I could eat or drink, nothing more. I could hear planes and felt us take off.

The tape and blindfold were only removed when I needed to go to the toilet. When we reached a building my wrists and ankles were bound to a chair so I couldn't even move to scratch.

End of flashback

I found myself looking back out of the window trying hard not to cry. "Good, because if they did hurt you then…" I think he realised what he was saying and stopped. I didn't ask him to tell me what he was about to say. It might embarrass the mighty Kai to admit he was protective over a little girl like me. "I know." Was all I said.

"I think your concoction did the trick."

"Hmm?" I asked turning to look at him. You couldn't believe the shock I felt to see a smile on Kai's face that was so warm. "My cold's gone." I smiled too but I still felt afraid. "Why don't you go back to bed? You'll feel better in the morning."

"I guess your right, see you tomorrow Kai." I went back to bed hearing him go back to his behind me.
