:Chapter seven:

:Cold memories of cold days:

Ray was traveling on the plane thinking in his friend. Poor Kai- he thought. if something was really affecting him was the fact that he could do nothing until the plane arrived.

Fortunately it didn't take so long because the guy slept quickly, imaging that it would be a hard day the following and he needed to rest.

When he arrived it was snowing. He didn't remembered how to get to the Balkov abbey, so he asked a man… and a woman… and a kid… and another man… and a group of guys like him… but no one knew about it. He heard someone calling him.

"Boy!" said an old man.

"Hey! Yeah, what do you want?"

"Just to ask you… what are you looking for?" the man appeared to be a painter, by the way he looked. He was carrying a lot of paper, brushes, and pictures.

"I am looking for the Balkov abbey… Balkii… Manastir?" He tried to say in something that seemed Russian, the words he had heard Kai repeated in dreams.

"ohhuuuuuuuu! Da da da… (yes, yes, yes) But that was put down years ago!"

"no, excuse me, you don't understand, a huge building, an abbey…"

"I know what you are talking about, boy. This." The old man showed a picture he had painted, representing the abbey Ray was looking for.

"That's it! The Balkov Abbey!"

"I know. This building was down three years ago. When the annual Beyblade Championship finished, and the owners were arrested."

"…"

"But you aren't going to leave there, are you?"

"no no no! I am certainly looking for my friend... who was… taken there by another guy… his name is Kai Hiwatari."

"Oh! Somewhere I remember that name from… well, it doesn't matter, I'll remember it later, now I will help you to look for your friend."

"But--"

"Follow me."

"Sure sir."

Jade, Erika and Kai were guided by Gary, following the instructions that Boris had given him to do while he would be writing some papers.

"Where are you taking us? I wont allow you to trick us!" answered Kai, to whom the travel had made him be conscious that he couldn't trust that people at all.

"Hey hey hey! What do you think I am? I'm taking you home! To our new home! The Balkov Abbey!"

"I hope so."

Not so far away, the two girls were talking silently, looking at the guys with a worrying face.

"Listen you two!" said Gary, "If you are talking badly about anyone in the abbey I swear I will make sure you never do it again!"

"You will do nothing to the girls. –said Kai, seriously while they passed through a dark tunnel, that ended on a woody room.- or I will make sure you never do that again."

"jajajaja! You really think I am that weak! To fall because of a guy that has been off from training during… let me see… 10 years! Whoa, I didn't knew you were sooooo weak!"

"That I haven't been in the abbey where you were doesn't mean that I hadn't trained on my own!"

"I'm not talking about those stupid things you bastard call Beyblades, and I would better call little spinning tops. I am talking about real training, body training to be a stronger man!"

"Are you calling me weak? Do you really think I am weak? Let me shut your mouth and then tell me if you think the same!" answered Kai, furious.

Gary hit Kai on his shoulder, not strongly but seriously enough to start a fight.
