Disclaimer: I do not own Beyblade.

Hey all, sorry I'm updating really quickly but I like writing this story and I have nothing else to do! There is medium violence in this chapter. Enjoy!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Previously...

Kenny opened his eyes. Omens face was shadowed and unrecognisable in the bad lighting.

'How did you know my name?' Kenny whispered in terror.

'I've been watching you and your little friends for a while now!' Omen whispered coldly. 'Since you first set up your camp site. I know about you, Tyson, Daichi, Ray, Kai, Max and the girl Hilary. You don't need to worry for the time being...'

He patted Kenny on the head and laughed when Kenny flinched. He then leaned closer. Kenny felt Omens hot breath beside his ear.

'I'm not going to kill you until all your friends are here, tied up beside you!' Omen whispered softly and slowly, 'You can all die together, after all, friends do everything together don't they?'

----

Kai, Hilary, Ray, Max, Tyson and Daichi all sat awake together. Hilary was so close to Kai that he could feel her shaking. None of them could sleep. Ray and Kai had offered to stay awake while the others slept but they were all too scared to sleep after Kenny had been kidnapped. Daichi had tried to remain fearless. The others admired this, remembering he was alot younger than them. Even Kai felt a respect towards Daichi.

Golden and light rose pink hues of light erupted over the horizon, announcing the arrival of dawn. The sun hadn't some up yet though the forest was bathed in dull light. Birds began twittering and singing natures alarm. They flitted across the skies, going out in search of an early meal. During the night, Kai and Tyson had packed some backpacks with food, torches, water and a packet of matches. They would be leaving all their stuff behind accept what was already packed, their mobile phones and some jackets. Dew settled on the leaves and blades of grass around the adolescents.

'We wont leave yet,' said Kai quietly, 'It's still too dark.'

They waiting a few more minutes.

Finally, golden shafts of light shot over the horizon and the sun tipped over the horizon, pouring its molten glow over the forest. Kai stood up as beams of light broke through the upper foliage and showered upon them. The other's all began to get to their feet also.

'Let's go,' said Kai, adjusting a backpack over one shoulder.

Hilary stood up. They were all fully dressed. Kai turned and lead the way, his white scarf fluttering behind him. Tyson and Ray followed, then Hilary and Daichi with Max protecting the rear of the group incase of an attack from behind.

'It should take us around six hours to reach the rangers station,' said Ray.

'Six hours!' Daichi asked, 'But it didn't take that long to get here!'

'Yeah, but we got a lift halfway from the rangers remember?' said Max, 'They drove us until the woods were too dense to go any further by car.'

Daichi remembered and nodded in defeat. Normally, Daichi was cheerful to be surrounded by nature, but he was worried this time about the kidnapper and realised that the person must be as resourceful and adept with nature as he was if they were able to get into the camp sight and kidnap Kenny without a sound.

'I really hope Kenny is alright,' said Hilary looking down at the ground.

They were all thinking the same thing.

'He'll be fine,' said Ray with forced optimism.

At least... I hope so... Ray thought.

----

Kenny couldn't sleep either. He watched Omen who slept peacefully against the wall with the shining silver dagger in his hands. Kenny tugged at his bonds. The ropes around his wrists were ruthlessly tight and cut into his skin every time he tried to loosen them. But it didn't stop the brown haired teen.

I've got to get out of here! Kenny thought desperately, If not to save my own life... then to warn the others! They're in danger!

Kenny felt the ropes burning his skin as he twisted his hands in his desperate attempt to escape. The ropes suddenly pinched his flesh causing him to yelp. He looked around to where Omen was sleeping, hoping he hadn't woken him. Omen's blurred figure stirred slightly, Kenny held his breath, but he remained in peaceful slumber. Kenny breathed a sigh of relief then continued working at his bonds.

A few minutes passed. A shaft of dull sun light came through the ceiling where Kenny realised there must be a thin gap to the outside world. Kenny continued working tirelessly at his bonds until he felt them beginning to come loose at last! He smiled excitedly. Maybe he could escape!

'Keep going! You're almost there!'

Kenny stopped, his blood ran cold. Omen's icy voice echoed through the cavern with bone chilling amusement. Kenny looked up slowly. Omen was sitting on a large boulder. One knee bent so his arms were wrapped around it and his chin rested on the kneecap. He was watching Kenny with a smirk on his face. Kenny could make out a blurred red glint in Omens eyes, which scared him even more. The silver dagger was in his hand.

'Don't stop now!' said Omen humorously, 'You're so close to getting free!'

He snickered maliciously. Kenny felt his hands trembling. Omen lifted his head slightly. His jet black hair almost covered half his left eye. It was short but the fringe ended at nose level. He looked like one of those handsome, popular people that all the girls fell for. A smirk spread across his face.

'Is that fear I see Kenny?' he asked, 'I think it is! Are you afraid of me?'

Kenny didn't answer. The answer was quite clearly yes. Omen laughed. He jumped off the boulder and walked towards Kenny. He kneeled behind the brown haired boy and tightened the ropes until Kenny gave a gasp of pain.

'Oh I'm sorry,' said Omen smiling, 'Did I hurt you? How's this then?'

He pulled the ropes tighter. Kenny yelled.

'Why are you doing this!' Kenny asked, breathing hard under the pain. 'What have my friends and I done to you!'

Omen finished securing the bonds then stood up.

'I dunno,' he said, 'I just feel like tormenting some pathetic innocent campers! Plus, your friendship and cheeriness sickens me, not to mention I have a major lust to see blood shed!'

'That's sick!' grunted Kenny.

Omen kneeled down and grabbed a handful of Kenny's hair pulling his head back brutally. Kenny gasped. Omen whispered sinisterly into his ear.

'No, that's not sick, what I'm going to do to you and your friends,' he laughed softly, 'That's going to be sick!'

He thrust Kenny's head forward releasing his hair. Omen smirked then walked around infront of Kenny.

'I'm going to the Ranger station for a moment, then, I'll be back soon with another one of your little friends.' he said, putting the dagger away into his belt.

'No! Leave them alone! Arrgh!' The ropes cut into Kenny's flesh, causing him more pain then before.

Omen smiled. He pulled out a small roll of duck tape from his pocket and crouched down.

'Since when do you tell me what to do?'

He tore off a strip of the grey tape and put it across Kenny's mouth.

'I can't have you yelling your head off down here!' Omen stated, 'Your voice could go out that crack up there or echo through the cave and alert a passer by and they could come and rescue you! I don't want that to happen after I spent all that time capturing you!'

He patted Kenny on the cheek hard then stood up and walked towards the exit. Kenny watched the blurred teen walk out of the cavern and hung his head in defeat.

My friends, Kenny thought, I can't even warn them! He's going to kill us... and there's nothing I can do!

----

Dark clouds hovered overhead threatening a storm. Hilary looked up as a small rumble echoed.

'Hn, perfect!' she heard Kai mutter sarcastically.

They had all been walking for three hours. Kai followed the thin overgrown track that they'd followed the previous day and lead them out to the four-wheel-drive track where the rangers had dropped them off. The others all filed out behind him. Ray suddenly stopped. Kai looked at him. Ray looked around.

'There's some one following us,' said Ray quietly.

Kai looked around. Something on the rod caught his eye. Tyson walked forward.

'Stop Tyson!' Kai yelled.

But it was too late. Tyson waked through a this clear trip wire. There was snapping in the tree's.

'GET DOWN!' Ray yelled.

Every one dropped to their stomaches as a row of small wooden shafts, around 5 inches long and one inch thick, shot out of the bushes, flying above their heads.

Omen sat up in a tree watching them with amusement.

The adolescents on the ground all raised their heads. Hilary found herself under Kai who had pulled her down. She felt her cheeks go red once again. Kai didn't seem to care. He stood up and looked around, thoroughly pissed. There was a cracking in the trees coming towards them.

'Get up!' shouted Kai to the others, 'Get moving!'

The others all jumped to their feet and began running down the track. Hilary ran fast beside Ray. Tyson and Kai covered the rear. Rain began to sprinkle lightly upon them as they ran. Omen ran along side them off the track, behind shrubbery, and out of sight. Ray noticed something dark along side them and as he looked some thing flitted out of the shrubs. It was a dagger! The glimmering blade embedded itself in Tyson's right shoulder. He stopped and yelled once in pain, falling to his knees. The others all stopped. Kai looked around. A dark figure leapt out of the bushes and tore the dagger from Tyson's shoulder, causing him to yell again, then disappeared before anyone could get a good look at it. Max and Daichi ran back to Tyson.

'Stop!' yelled Kai, 'It's a trap!'

But it was too late. Daichi, who was behind Max, was grabbed by the person and began being dragged away. Daichi yelled in fear. Kai, Max and Ray ran forward, desperate to catch up. Ray jumped, grabbing Daichi's hand but the young bladers hand slipped through his fingers, slippery from the rain, then disappeared into the undergrowth. Kai attempted to follow but it was as if the two people had disappeared. There weren't any screams, noises or tracks left to follow. This kidnapper was good. Kai and Max came back. Ray and Hilary were beside Tyson. Tyson's shoulder was bleeding badly. Ray looked numb and horrified.

'I let him slip,' he said numbly, 'Right through my fingers! I had him!'

'Don't beat yourself up over it,' said Kai bitterly, 'It wasn't your fault.'

Something caught Kai's eyes. He suddenly jerked his head back as a bloody dagger shot through the air mere centimetres from his face.

'Run!' he yelled.

Max and Ray pulled Tyson up and ran supporting him. Hilary felt Kai grab her wrist and pull her along. She felt her heart pounding in terror. She looked around and saw the dark figure throw the dagger again.

'LOOK OUT!' she screamed pushing Kai off the track.

Kai almost lost his balance then continued running. Ray, Max and Tyson continued running up the path. Omen stopped and smirked, he wasn't even puffed. They were separated!

They're just making this too easy! Omen thought evilly.

He walked back to where he'd tied and gagged Daichi.

----

Kai and Hilary kept running through the forest until Hilary tripped on a raised tree root and fell face down in the dirt. Kai stopped and looked around. They were alone and weren't being followed anymore.

'Are you alright?' he asked, panting slightly.

Hilary breathed deeply and held her ankle tightly.

'I think I've really hurt my ankle!' she said holding in tears, not wanting to look weak in Kai's eyes. 'But it's fine, I can keep going!'

She stood up, took one step on her injured ankle then fell forwards painfully. Kai caught her before she hit the ground.

'It's not fine,' he said.

'I said it's fine!' said Hilary stubbornly.

'And I said it's not.' Kai repeated.

'Leave me alo-EEK!'

Kai lifted her off her feet and carried her in bridal style. Hilary grabbed him around the neck, feeling like she was about to fall.

'Put me down!' she said indignantly, yet also blushing.

'So you can fall flat on your face again?' he asked monotonously.

Hilary knew he had a point. She sighed and gave up. She was actually enjoying being carried by Kai but was scared that he might think that she was heavy or weak. She didn't want him to think she was heavy and fat, even though it was quite obvious she wasn't fat at all. And she definitely wasn't weak, considering Tyson and Daichi feared her sometimes. They walked for a little while then Kai found a large hollowed out tree whose trunk as covered by a curtain of shrubs and branches. It was almost impossible to see, Kai only found it because he'd kicked a rock and it shifted the curtain of foliage. He walked over to it. Hilary noticed what he was doing and moved the greenery away. Kai carried her inside. It was quite large inside for a hollowed out tree and was completely dry and hidden from the outside world.

----

Omen carried Daichi through the mine and into the cavern. He dropped the young red head down beside Kenny.

D-Daichi? Kenny thought, seeing the scrawny frame and red hair through the blur.

Daichi's mouth was taped shut and a scrap of material was tied tightly over his eyes.

'I brought you a little friend!' Omen said to Kenny as he tied Daichi up to another large pole that stuck out of the ground beside Kenny.

He tied the bonds around the young bladers hands tightly so he whimpered slightly. Omen walked around the front of the pair and took the blind fold off Daichi. Daichi looked at Omen in fearful surprise at his kidnappers appearance. Omen knelt down and tore the pieces of tape off the boys mouths, taking some skin from the lips with it. They both grunted with pain, their lips stinging as if on fire. Daichi looked at Omen as he stood up.

'Who are you? What do you want? Where am I?' he asked immediately. He noticed his brunette friend beside him, 'Chief?' He looked back at the wet, black haired teen. 'You're the one who kidnapped Kenny?'

'You ask alot of questions don't you!' Omen laughed coldly. 'It's kind of obvious I took Kenny, considering he's sitting right beside you, so I don't even know why you're asking me that question! To answer all your questions in order, I'm Omen, I want you and you're friends dead and you are in the last place you are ever going to see! You want more info, talk to little Kenny here! We've had the pleasure of each others company since last night so I'm sure he'll tell you all about it!'

Omen turned around and pulled something out of his belt, but it wasn't his dagger. It was a gun.

I really must thank those generous Park Rangers... he thought smiling.

He stowed it back into his belt and pulled his dagger out, cleaning the blood off it.
