Yes I'm here with another update. I have quite a few chapters written up, so the updates should be pretty frequent and consistant for a while. Please enjoy!

Back to BIOVOLT

"Tala." Kai walked in front of him, touching the bruise on the beyblader's cheek.

Tala flinched, but he quickly became annoyed. "You should have stayed with your friends. I can't believe that you're that much of an idiot!"

Kai sat down next to Tala. "I didn't come here out of my own free will."

"I know, but if you had stayed with the Bladebreakers Boris wouldn't have touched you."

"You're kidding right? So how did he get you? Did you just walk into his arms?"

"Alright you got me kid, you got me." Tala was still Kai's senior by two years, but the two had never even known each other in the abbey. There were no friendships in the abbey, because in the end they would be in your way to get to the top.

"Do you always run away just when your life is starting to have some meaning?" Tala looked at Kai in disgust. "It's pathetic."

"You have no idea."

"What's that?" Kai was holding the pendant that Mr. Granger had given him. He squeezed it, thinking about his own grandfather. Would he do anything, or was Kai on his own again?

"Tyson's grandpa gave it to me. It's supposed to be good luck."

"Maybe there's an on button that you need to find first." He could tell Tala was trying to lighten up the mood, if not for Kai then for himself.

"Or maybe it's a piece of junk." Tears were falling down Kai's face and Tala's eyes went wide.

Kai opened his eyes to see Tala wiping the tears from his cheeks, which had turned blue from the face paint. Kai took a cloth from his pocket and tried to wipe the rest of the markings away.

Tala took the cloth. "Here, at least I can see what I'm doing."

Kai closed his eyes as Tala gently wiped the rest of it off. He felt Tala's free arm pull him into a hug. Kai opened his eyes to see Tala a few inches from his face.

"Kai, I promise the two of us will take Boris down for good and we'll get out of here, but once that happens we go back to the way things were, alright?"

Kai nodded as Tala brought him into a hug. It was strange; he did not feel uncomfortable. It was the same that he felt with Tyson, like he actually belonged somewhere. Kai returned the hug and for a moment it was as if his father was back.

"How cute."

Both boys turned and growled at the new voice. "Boris."

"Now, now Tala, where are your manners?"

"I have to admit I thought the two of you would be tearing each other apart, but here I find you having feelings for each other. I'm sure your grandfather would be interested Kai."

"You're sick." Kai glared at Boris, but the smirk of the older man's face stayed in place.

"Now come Kai. Are you saying that there's no way the two of you would get together?"

"Shut up Boris! What do you want with us?" Boris and Kai turned to look at Tala. Boris smiled and walked away knowing that he had pushed Tala as far as he could.

After Boris had left Tala spoke. "The hug didn't mean that Kai. Maybe it's better if we don't talk to each other."

Kai watched as Tala turned his back on him. He was mad at what Boris had implied as well, but there was some part of him that trusted Tala, maybe just because he was the only person Kai recognised who he knew was not a complete creep. Boris knew the two of them could escape if they worked together, but if they could not even trust each other they would not be able to.

The clank of the cell lock made Kai look up to see one of Boris's lackeys. Tala was asleep, but the man was not interested. He nodded to Kai and undid his chain.

"Don't try anything kid." He pulled Kai along with the chain.

Kai walked past all the empty cells, "So we're the only two beybladers left in BIOVOLT."

The man smirked. "It's not the same building you remember, so don't think of trying to escape."

"There aren't many places that use dungeons and knowing Boris it's one of the last places my grandfather would look, but he will look here."

"You really think your grandfather will save you?" The man laughed, "Well you can hold on to that pathetic dream if you wish, but it will not make a bit of difference to you being found."

They came to a door where Kai knew Boris and what was left of BIOVOLT had been moved to.

"Well here is the famous Kai Hiwatari. It's a shame that you will not do this willingly, but that cannot be helped."

Boris smiled as Kai started trying to escape, but someone put a mask with sleeping gas over his mouth and nose and soon he was unconscious.

"That took you long enough. You should have done it when you went to get him instead of waiting 'til he panicked." Boris sighed. "It can't be helped. I want you to start the treatment and I want even the slightest change in his functioning to be reported to me."

"Yes sir."

Boris walked to his office. All of those years of planning had been shattered because of some children, but through Kai he could get revenge on Voltaire and Kai's friends at once.

When he had first met Kai the boy was lost. Voltaire had explained that Kai's father had just walked out on them and that Kai would be the heir of Hiwatari Enterprises. It was the easiest and fastest way that Boris could get to the top without getting his hands too dirty.

He soon realised what he had got himself into when he found that Kai would not listen to anyone, not even his grandfather. It took months of heavy discipline to get Kai to the point where he would follow orders, but not before giving the person who had given the order a run for his money.

Because of this he had separated Kai from the others to prevent any ideas of breaking the rules. Kai never seemed to mind. He would just read or sit and stare at nothing for hours. He was definitely a unique child, even if he was not the best at anything in particular he was great at practically everything he was interested in.

"Sir." One of the scientists stood at the door.

"What is it?"

"There's something really strange. We think that you should see it."

Boris nodded and stood up to walk out after the man. This time Kai had no power against them and his grandfather would not find him any time soon since he had few contacts that were still able to help him. Everything was coming together and the BBA would rue the day they wrote him off.

First of all I am not homophobic in any way, but I felt it would be right that for once the main characters themselves do not feel comfortable with the idea. Not every one is alright with boy/boy relationships and I thought it would add a bit more tension between the two of them. As you probably noticed they are not starting off on the best of terms.

Please review! (I can handle critisism)
