If at first you don't succeed, try Kai again!

Chapter 8

The sacred spirit of fire gazed down upon the chaos that was playing out in the Granger's dojo. She was very concerned...perhaps she should use human form and assist somehow. But...the others couldn't know.

"Totes your fault, Dranzer. Your visit to the human world seems to have stirred up some kind of cosmic disorder." Driger quipped. Dranzer turned as the vision faded with a last shout and loud mechanical roar.

"Bryan's got the chainsaw." Dragoon commentated as Driger snarled at the presence of the Russian blader. Dranzer was alarmed but relieved at the same time because the other three had no idea that she had made Kai younger.

"I have to go down there." She decided mentally. "But...first I'll need a distraction..."

Driger made another window of vision appear and what he saw angered him to no end. For what he saw was his master Rei, being confronted by Bryan with a chainsaw.

In the vision, you could see Rei's amber eyes becoming cat-like slights and baring his teeth as Max quickly ushered Kai out of the room. Kai was whimpering a little in fear. Bryan and Rei began shouting at each other as Ian and Spencer cornered Johnny and Daichi and Tala pinned down Tyson, demanding to know what had become of the phoenix keeper.

Driger snarled as Bryan and Rei's conflict continued. "Totes going down there." He decided. As if on cue, Galeon appeared. The lion had sensed what was happening and went to hold Driger back. But this also signalled that the White Tigers were on their way back from buying Kai's clothes.

Dragoon and Draciel looked at the vision, then Dranzer, then Driger fighting against Galeon to get to the human world. Finally, they looked at each other.

The dragon and turtle began to chant "FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!"

Dranzer, though utterly bewildered by the turn of events, saw this unrest as an opportunity to sneak off. The sounds of chanting and roaring became even more distant as she flew away.

Kai pressed his ear to the door of the main entrance way of the dojo. Dizziness and fear threatened to consume him greedily, but the child resisted. He heard lots of shouting and the occasional smash. He could hear Max and Kenny babbling fearfully, seemingly trying to explain something.

Rei was shouting at the top of his lungs followed by another voice that Kai did not know. After this, there was a thud, sometimes a growl. Kai was scared for Rei and he felt tired, dizzy and sick. Kai had had enough.

Kai began to swiftly jump up, trying to pull the handle with his little fingers. He knew they were all fighting over him, but why?

"This involves me too." He muttered between weary gasps for breath. "But they tell me nothing. Wasn't I always small? They said I wasn't. How do those guys trying to hurt Rei know me? And...Where are mother and father? Where's Dranzer?"

He fell to the floor again, losing balance as the uproar outside raged on. Kai lay on the floor, his chest rising and falling with quick breaths. The questions continued to torment the boy, stinging his mind again and again like hornets.

He felt tired all of a sudden and he curled into himself as his amethyst eyes slipped closed. Kai was swiftly letting unconsciousness take over him, he was too tired to resist. Too tired to notice a figure of a woman appear in a flash of red aura.

Dranzer scooped Kai lovingly and sadly into her warm embrace as his eyes fell closed.
