Hi again everybody. I hope that you like this chapter and I'm sorry for the wait.


5. Knowledge and Misery

Kai woke up the next morning from the bell like the day before. He got up off the floor and left the cell, following the morning routine.

"Hey Bree, hey Ben," he said as he met up with them.

"Hey Kai," they replied and they made their way to the training room.

"Are you alright?" Bree asked Kai noticing he seemed a little down.

"I just miss my family that's all," he replied sadly.

"Don't worry Kai you'll see them again one of these days," Ben said trying to cheer him up.

"Maybe I'll see Dad and sis again but not Mom she's gone and she's never coming back," Kai said as tears formed in his eyes.

"It's ok dude," Ben said and placed an arm on his shoulder.

"Yeah Kai we know how ya feel," Bree finished.

"Sure you do let's just go before they kill us," Kai said and started to walk off.

Knowing that there was nothing else they could say to cheer up their friend they followed him to the training room.

"Hey Bree how bout a battle?" Kai asked with a determined look on his face, he decided that he would forget the longing of home for now or at least show it so he wouldn't be beaten by Boris again.

"Alright but you're just gonna get the same result as last time," she answered and launched her blade as Kai launched his.

Bree was winning being the better blader she had the upper hand and Dranzer was getting beaten. As her blade came in for the final blow that would put Kai's blade down Kai called out the powers of his bit beast like he had the night before. The magnificent creature let out a shriek from its powerful regal head, its feathers burned with a fiery light, and the phoenix charged at Bree's blade. The attack caught her off guard and sent her blade flying leaving Kai as the winner.

"Wow Kai that was awesome. I never knew that you had a bit beast," Bree said surprised with the outcome of the match.

"I didn't either until last night. That was an awesome battle you're really good," he replied.

"Yeah you're really good too and next time I'll be the one who wins," she said.

After the match the kids in the room continued practicing and battling the other bladers including Kai, Ben and Bree. Eventually they had to go run their laps and afterwards the kids went to the cells and Ben and Bree went to their room.


Boris however did not go to his room he had work to do before he was going to call it a night. He went down the twisted, mazelike halls of the abbey until he came to a room that was like an office. It was not his office but the office of the man that he worked for, Voltaire Hiwatari. He knocked on the door and waited to be let in. After being let in he entered the room and stood in front of the old man.

"Tell me Boris how is my grandson doing here?" Voltaire asked wanting to make sure Kai could handle life at the abbey.

"Kai is now able to call out his bit beast sir. He is doing quite well and I believe that he has the determination to be a great beyblader. But I'm afraid to say that he's still hanging onto the memories of that damn family of his," Boris reported.

"Well then we'll just have to get rid of those emotions of his. Give him beatings everyday and if that doesn't work then you can try whatever torture you want just so long as it gets the job done," Voltaire ordered.

"Very well I will enjoy messing with that boy's mind."

"Just don't mess it up so much that you get rid of that nice little determination of his and his skills as a blader. Your job is done so get out of my sight."

"Yes sir," Boris said and he left the room.

Once Boris had left Voltaire sat back in his chair and thought, Once Boris has whipped Kai into shape then he will do what he's told and I will be able to use him for what he is meant to do. I need my grandson but if somehow this doesn't work then I'll have to go pay a visit to the hospital and use his sister against him. The worthless little bitch is probably crying over her dead mother and that stupid son of mine they have in extensive care. When I'm through with Alexander she'll have more then just her father's health to cry about.


Back in his cell Kai lay on the floor thinking about the way his life was turning out and hoping that his father and sister were alright. He was drifting off into sleep when the door to his cell creaked open and he was picked up off the floor.

"Hello Kai your grandfather wanted me to pay you a little visit," Boris said with an evil grin.

"Can't you just leave me alone for once?"

"If I did that it would be no fun."

"So what do you want then? You're not paying me this visit just to say hello."
"You're right young Hiwatari I came to teach you a lesson," Boris said and smacked Kai on the ground.

He punched and kicked the boy, giving him a severe beating like Voltaire had ordered. Boris left satisfied with the night's work leaving the boy to his misery. Kai was covered in bruises and in some places the beating was so bad that it had left a cut. There was blood coming from his body but there was nothing that Kai could do about it. The beating had left Kai in a lot of pain and after a while he passed out not being able to deal with it.
