The final ghost silently and slowly made its way to him. When it stopped a few feet from him, Voltaire knelt before it. It wore a black cloak which was trimed in drak grey, that hid its face and body except for its hands.

"Are you the ghost of Christmas future? Are you going to show me what will happen in the time before us?" Voltaire asked.

"But of course, Voltaire. Come, we have much to see." the ghost said, as Voltaire realized the voice of the ghost sounded like Kai's best friend Tala, who lives in Russia.

"Lead on. The night is waning and time is precious to me I know." Voltaire said.

The phantom, who sounded like Tala, moved off as Voltaire followed him. Soon the city materialized around them and they came upon seven young men, it was Tala, Thomas, Bryan, Ian, Spencer, Taurus, and Santos again; Tala seemed unhappy about something.

"He's finally dead." Bryan said happily.

"It's about time too." Spencer said as Ian nodded his head.

"Aren't you happy that he's finally dead, brother?" Thomas asked.

" Of course I am, but I just got an email from Kai. He's not happy that he's gone. He was the only one who could've saved her." Tala said, the others knew what Tala meant.

"I wish there was something we could have done about it." Taurus said.

"I don't think there is anything we can do now." Ian pointed out.

"I know, but still, if we had known about it sooner we could have done something to help." Taurus replied.

"What do you mean?" Santos asked his cousin.

"I mean we could have helped look for someone who was a match, someone besides Voltaire. It could have been one of us and we could have helped to save her." Taurus explained.

"I think you might have something there, Taurus. But we didn't know about it until it was too late to do anything." Tala said.

"I know, I know." Taurus said sadly.

"Spirit? Who are they talking about?" Voltaire asked.

"You will find out, come there is more to see." the spirit said as he moved away from the seven young Russians as Voltaire followed.


The scene around them changed and they left Russia and another city sprang up around them and Voltaire realized that they where in Japan. They soon found another group this one was of eleven young people, six boys and five girls, all of them looked sad.

"I still can't believe she's gone." Natalie said softly.

"Neither can I." Esa said.

"I don't think any of us can." Ally said.

"We can't either, even if we have only known her for a few short weeks." Hillary said.

"The color and the joy hurt my eyes." Kai said sadly.

"It will ease after a while." Tyson said knowingly.

"I don't think it will, Tyson." Kai replied.

"We know how you feel Kai; believe us the pain of losing her will fade." Rei said as he placed his hand on Kai's shoulder.

"I know." Kai said softly as he looked away.

The color and joy? Oh yes, his granddaughter Catherine. She was not there with them, had she died?


As if the specter heard his thoughts, the scene changed and they saw Kai standing at a tombstone in a graveyard, he held a bouquet of white roses and a single red rose.

"I wish you were still here, Presea. I wish grandfather had agreed to help you sooner, but he didn't and now you are gone and now so is grandfather. I'm the only Hiwatari alive now, I will miss you very much my dearest sister; I love you." Kai said as he placed the white roses in front of the tombstone before going to another one and placed the single red rose in front of it before leaving the graveyard. He didn't say anything when he stood in front of the second tombstone he just stared at it sadly before walking away.

They went to the first tombstone and Voltaire saw his granddaughter's name on it, there was also an angel etched on it and in a small grove was a BeyBlade, her bey blade, and her bit beast; Isis, a blue and white ice phoenix. Then they went to the second tombstone.

"I'm afraid to look, spirit." Voltaire said.

"But you must." The spirit said, as Voltaire stepped up to it and saw his own name.

"No!!! I won't believe it!!! Spirit, assure me that I could change all this that you have shown me tonight."

"If you honor the Christmas spirit in your heart like you had when you had been a young child, you can do anything." The spirit said as he pushed his hood away to reveal his face and Voltaire saw that he did not just SOUND like Tala, he LOOKED like him too; with those piercing ice blue eyes and flaming red hair.

"Yes, yes!!!! I will honor the spirit of Christmas in my heart all year!!!" he said as he grabbed a hold of Tala's hand.

Tala fought to pull his hand away, but Voltaire hung on tightly, but Tala was stronger than he seemed and pulled his hand free and everything started to fade and changed into his bed room. Voltaire was back in his own bed room in his own house.


SB/Kierra: That was it?

Annie: Yes that's it. Short I know but I had to make it that way and I had to make a lot of things up so it would make sense and stay true to the story line.

SB/Kierra: I don't get why did you make the third ghost talk in this chapter when he doesn't talk at all in the book?

Annie: I know that, but there is a Mickey Mouse version of this story and the third ghost talks, towards the end before Scrooge woke up. So I decided to do it that way instead of not having him talk at all.

SB/Kierra: Oh................ well we hope you have enjoyed the chapter!!!!!

Annie: Don't forget to review!!!!! Bye!!!!!!!!!!

SB/Kierra: Cya!!!!!!!!!!!
