When Suki woke up, she found that she was in the living room. A cover had been put over her and a pillow was under her bed. She had been changed into her pajamas. She looked around at the hallway clock; 1:45 am.
"Where's Ray?" she wondered.
"He left right after you fell asleep." Said Odeon. She was on the living room table, looking right at her owner.
"Oh." She replied.
"That sure was a long day." Said Odeon, stretching her wings.
"Thanks for watching over me." Said Suki. "You can go to sleep now."
"Are you sure?" asked the Phoenix.
"Yeah, I need time to think."
"Wake me if you need anything." Said the phoenix before she disappeared.
Something was wrong. "Why can't I sleep?" thought Suki. Something was bothering her so much, she woke up. But what was it? Everything seemed OK, very calm, very peaceful… yet there was something dark out of all of this.
She stood up and went to the kitchen; perhaps all she needed was a drink of water. She served herself, and began to drink, but when she looked out the kitchen window, she saw something moving. She settled her glass down, leaned towards the window glass and stared outside. A dark figure was moving at quite a distance. She narrowed her sight, and a few minutes later, she noticed the figure had arms and legs; it was a person, but she couldn't make out who it was.
She left the kitchen and ran to her room. She grabbed Odeon's physical body form under the bed and whispered into it. "Odeon, somebody's out there."
The phoenix appeared, flew to the window and stared outside. "There's something wrong with that boy." She said after what seemed like 5 minutes.
"Is it Kai?" asked Suki, hopeful.
"No." said Odeon shaking her head. "He is tall, and he does have spiky hair, it's just that it's red…" the phoenix didn't continue. Instead she gasped. "Suki!" she said. "RUN!"
"What?" asked Suki confused. "What are you talking about?" Maybe the lack of sleep was affecting the phoenix already.
"That boy is bad news Suki!" said Odeon turning to her. "You have to get away!"
At that time, her bedroom window broke, and a beyblade came into the room, spinning madly as Suki protected her head of the flying glass with her arms and jumped to the other side of the bed.
"They're coming!" Yelled Odeon.
"Who!" asked Suki, beggining to panic.
"RUN!" Suki did as told.
She stood up and ran into the hallway to the living room. She tried heading towards the front door, but it bursted open, and a guy came in. She let out a small scream. Instinctively, she changed her way, and jumped out of one of the broken windows.
"She's going towards the trees!" yelled the guy at the door.
Suki ran, and turned, just to see two figures chasing after her. She ran fast, almost flying. She got tired after moments, and began to slow down.
"DON'T SLOW DOWN!" yelled the Phoenix. "KEEP RUNNING!"
Suki picked up the pace. She went right. Left. North. South, trying to loose them. Then she stopped and moved behind a tree and made herself stick to it. She breathed hard, cold sweat running down her body and her closed eyes.
She was scared and very confused. "Odeon, who are they?" she thought. "Do you know them?"
"Yes. Well, I know one, but only by appearance, and I can tell you he's bad news!" said the phoenix.
"Do you know why he's chasing after me?"
"No…"
"Where did she go?" asked a boy.
"I saw her running in here." Said another boy. There was a pause.
Suki pressed her body against the tree, it seemed she wanted them both to become one, so she could be safe. She tried to keep her heartbeat down, but it only caused it to go faster. "Don't let them hear me…" she thought holding her breath. Her grip tightened around her beyblade. "Please… Don't let them hear me…"
"Split up." Said a third voice. "We have to find her. She can't get away."
Suki heard 3 pairs of feet running in 3 different directions. She let out the air in her lungs, quietly, gently, carefully. It was a matter of seconds before her heartbeat returned to normal.
Kazumi heard somebody running in the hallway. She looked at the clock in the night table beside her bed. 2:00 am. Maybe she was dreaming? Not giving it much importance, she laid back down and fell asleep. But a few minutes later, she heard a window break. It seemed to be coming from Suki's room.
"Kugamoro." She said, shaking her husband as she heard more running in the hallway.
"What?" he replied, half asleep.
"Somebody's in the house." Replied Kazumi, in a quivered voice.
Kugamoro sat up. "Are you sure?" At that moment, they both heard a small scream, as more windows broke in the living room. They stood up, and headed towards the living room, just in time to hear a boy yell from the front entrance. Then he ran away, at the speed of light.
They came into the living room and turned on the light. There was broken glass everywhere, and the covers in which Suki had slept in were also on the floor.
"What happened?" asked Ishuzo, also running into the living room. Then she let out a gasp. "Where's Suki?"
Kugamoro stared around him, angrily. He couldn't do anything. He couldn't think clearly. Everything was so messed up. From the corner of his eye, he saw Kazumi slip to the floor quietly.
"Suki." She whispered. "SUKI!"
Suki pressed her body against the tree once more. She thought she had heard voices near by, but she wasn't sure. Still, she didn't want to be heard.
"Did you find her?" asked a voice.
"No." said a second voice.
"C'mon, we have to find her, for him."
She heard them split up again, and then she let herself separate a bit from the tree.
"SUKI!" her mothers voice echoed through the forest, and reached her ears.
"Mother." She whispered. She wasn't thinking clearly. She wasn't even aware of what her instincts made her do. She just separated from the tree and ran back home. But she didn't make it there. She wasn't even out of the forest when a dark figure came in front of her and knocked her out. The boy caught her before she hit the floor, but he didn't notice her hand had opened, letting go of her beyblade.
"I never thought you were that fast." Said the boy, looking down at her. "But your speed doesn't compare to your stupidity."
"You got her?" said a second voice.
"Yeah." Said the first boy.
"Then lets go back." Said a third one.
The first boy picked up Suki bride style and led the other two deep into the forest, disappearing into the darkness.
