Chapter 2

'Kai… I don't understand…why? Why didn't you tell him?' asked Rei confused after he was sure Voltaire had left.'Be…because Boris knows…'
'Knows what?'
'My…you know…' he said, making clear Rei had to read his mind. Kai didn't want to say it out loud in front of Kenny.
'He knows! O my God…that's no god. Is that why?'
'I guess…so. But… he…there's more…I think he's planning something…something big, and if he wants he can get rid of Voltaire in a blink of an eye, but I won't be discarded that easily, and he knows…'
'I already thought about something like that, but I can't prove it.''Me netierh…anyway, you shouldn't fight too much with Grandfather. At least, try not to.'
'I know, I know, but he's begin unreasonable and…'
'Shhh…calm down.' said Kai softly
'How can you be so calm about it bro?' wondered Rei. If just…'
'Rei, please… you're giving me a headache… could you make me that special potion which kills the pain a bit? My back and head are killing me…' the prince said smiling faintly.
'Of course, I'll be back soon. I've got to make some first. Kenny, would you mind helping me?'
'Not at all Master Rei.'
Rei smiled. 'Hang in there bro.'
'I will Rei, thanks.'

When Rei left Kas bedchamber the prince called for his special friend with a special way of whistling.
Only a few seconds later a beautiful red coloured phoenix flew in the room through an open standing window. She perched herself on the headboard.
'Hi beautiful.' said Kai, trying to raise his arm to pet her. When the bird saw the prince couldn't make it she hopped on a pillow nearby. She chirped and spread her wings.
'Dranzer…no…you can't heal it…' said Kai knowing what the bird was thinking. 'It's too bad.'
The phoenix ignored the dual haired teen and perched herself on his shoulder. She sung a beautiful song. Her tail touched Kais bandaged back. When it began to glow Kai moaned in pleasure. He loved it when she healed him. It felt just like heaven. When Kai opened his eyes again Dranzer already sat next to his head again.
'Thanks beautiful.'
She chirped again and nuzzled against the crown prince. Every time Dranzer did that Kai was surprised how soft and fluffy Dranzers feathers felt.
'How do you keep your feathers so soft?' asked Kai. 'Mines aren't as soft as yours by far…'
She chirped again. She lay her head on his hand palm and talked to him through a sort of telepathic bond.

Fresh air Master Kai…and a lot of attention. A soft voice said. The dual haired teen smiled.

'I would let them out if I could…but please…don't stop talking. I love your voice.'

Thanks Master Kai, but your brother is coming back, should I be going?

'No, please… I don't want you to go.'

But…

'He'll be surprised, but he won't harm you. I promise. Please Dranzer?'

How can I say no when you give me that look. she said playfully. O, your slave is with your brother as well…do you mind?

'No. He's seen you before.'

He has? When?

'When we thought he was sleeping.'

Oooh… she said.

Rei entered Kais bedroom first and almost spilled the cup he was holding when he saw Dranzer.
'Wh…wow. I mean, are you okay bro?'
'Perfectly fine. Don't worry about her. She's my best friend.'
'But…how…how did you befriend a phoenix? A full blooded phoenix?'
'She's really nice.' said Kenny suddenly, but as soon as he'd said that he covered his mouth with his hand.
'What? How do…' started Rei.
'Don't worry Kenny.' said Kai. 'I know you've seen her before. If I minded you would have known.'
'Why didn't you tell me?' asked Rei while confusing turned into excitement. 'I've always wanted to see a phoenix. Do you know how much magic originally comes from them, together with four other fellow spirits?'
'I know about the spirits fire and earth, so I assume there is water and two others too.' said Kai.
Rei placed the cup with the potion on the nightstand and sat down next to Kai on the bed.
'May I?' he asked, his hand reaching for Dranzer to pet her.

But of course Master Rei. Dranzer said. She didn't need to touch Rei to talk to him. Rei's level of magic was high enough for her to directly talk to him.

'What the…she…Kai…she talks…'
'I know.' grinned Kai. He pushed himself up with his arms and turned around so he could sit up.
'Woah, should you be sitting already Master Kai?' asked Kenny concerned
'Probably not, but beauty here healed me quite a bit, and Rei's healing helped out really well too. I could still use your potion though, bro.' teased Kai.
'O…yeah, right…Here you go.'
'Thanks.' said Kai and he took a few sips. 'You've sweetened it?' he added.
'Yeah, I know it doesn't taste too well, and a little honey doesn't change the effect. So…how long have you known…what's your name?' asked Rei suddenly turning to Dranzer.

Dranzer. she said with a nice voice. I've known Master Kai since birht, but the first time we actually met was…four years ago… she said while she used Reis magic to make her voice audible in the bedroom so Kai and Kenny could also hear what she was saying.
Rei felt her tap into his magic, but he didn't mind. Somehow Dranzer knew how much magic she could use.

'Isn't it six already? I first saw you when I…you know…' he said suddenly remembering Kenny didn't know he was half phoenix.

Hmmm… said the phoenix thinking. I think you're right Master Kai. I've lifed for so long now, that years don't really matter to me anymore.

Suddenly Dranzer tilted her head and closed her eyes.
'Something wrong beautiful?' asked Kai concerned.

No, I'm fine. I've got to go though. Will you be fine Master Kai?

'Don't worry. Don't make yourself stay here because you are worried about me. I just like your company ,but if you have something to do, you must go. I've got Rei and Kenny if something were to happen.' said Kai, gently patting her on her head.

Okay then. I'll be back when you need me. She said and flew out of the window.

'She's beautiful.' said Rei watching her fly away.

Meanwhile in the city

'This is the city Max!' said Takao happy. 'Somehow I recognise this all…'
'That's great! Now we only have to find the person we're looking for.' he said grinning. The both teens were still on horseback, searching for a place to spend the night.
Dragoon was peacefully asleep in Tysons hood. To prevent suspision the blond had pointed out that traveing with a hooded cape wasn't good for the level of trust one would receive. After thnking about it for a while Takao agreed. Nobody here would recognise him as a prince, and this way Dragoon could hide himself very well.
Suddenly Dragoon woke up.

Takao-sama. We're being followed. He warned. He also sent his thoughts to Max.

'What? Who?' asked Takao scanning the crowd.

No, not the crows. In the air. And don't be obvious about it. he warned

Short chappy, I know, sorry… I thought this would be a appropriate ending…for now. Also, the last few days I haven't been in the complete right mood to write… sighs being in love really makes your mind turn into mush…
