Nihao! Privet!

Sorry for making you wait that much! I have a lot of things to write in this chap, and I hope you like them!!!

Enjoy!

A cool atmosphere surrounded the three of them.

"I'm still wondering what where you talking to."

"I already told you, Tala, I was talking to Kai!"

"I don't see anyone here." Replied the red haired.

"Well, I don't mind if you don't see him, I do, and he's great."

"Whatever…" Tala clutched the rope that hanged from a nearby tree, and started climbing up.

"Wait for me!" grinned the other kid as he started climbing with older Kai's help.

"You never could climb alone! What makes you do it so easily now?!"

"You won't believe it…!"

"C'mon, don't tell me that Kai of yours is helping you… wait, don't tell me that you have brought him here anyway!"

"I did… but Tala, he doesn't see him, neither do you, so what's the problem with that?"

"ok, ok, nothing. How does he look exactly?"

"Like me. He looks like me, but… I have to admit, he's ruder and much bigger…"

"Then you'll look like that in some years… if this thing you say is true."

"Of Course it's True!"

Tala laughed joyfully. They spent all the afternoon up on that tree, eating the strawberries that the red haired had stolen from the Abbey's kitchen.

Soon it came time to sleep, and there was the oldest Kai calling for the little one, not to be late.

"I know, I know…" argued the little.

"You even get complaints from him?! – asked his friend, eyes wide open. – you're turning mad…!"

"I'm NOT MAD!!" cried the kid.

"Ok, I was just joking. If believing in that guy keeps you safe from all this insanity, then I'm glad you can still survive."

"Tala, got to go… are you coming to dinner?"

"Think so… I'll go later."

Apparently, some rules could certainly be broken at that harsh place. And dinner or not dinner was one of them. It was your choice to eat or not… but not to eat meant failing on the training… and that wasn't a good rule to break.

Soon after eating, little Kai decided to go to sleep for once. So Kai followed, and as the chibi went into his bed, Kai, once again, rested his back against the furniture.

In the cold abbey room, Kai and his younger edition were sleeping peacefully, after a long and tiring day. The oldest opened his eyes slowly in the middle of the night. Something was wrong. He looked slowly at chibi Kai; he was moving in his bed. Kai got up, and walked nearer the bed. 'is he having a dream?' thought Kai, as he slowly ran his hand by the kid's left arm. The kid had a chill.

'it can't—' though Kai. 'no, not at this age. It can't had happened yet… or yes?'

However, he decided to wake the kid up. There were so much symptoms that showed it could have happened. But was Him that bad?

"Kai! Kai, wake up!." Called Kai. "please, don't go on with this, you're too young!"

"Kai…" whispered chibi Kai, closing his eyes strongly.

"it's okay, you had a nightmare…"

"I'm afraid…" admitted the little one. Kai sat next to him, and smiled comprehensively.

"C'mon, let's go to sleep."

"I don't want to sleep. He'll come again."

Kai sighed. "…who will come, and to do what?"

"to stay with me. And teach me once again The Lesson."

"which lesson?"

The kid felt how a tear ran by his cheek. "the BAD lesson, the most awful…"

Kai had found the point. In fact, he had gone through that before, many times. "I'll stay with you. –he promised- I'll protect you. But if you don't sleep, tomorrow you won't be able to finish the training and then you know what comes if you don't obey."

"but…"

"But nothing. To sleep, tiny boy."

"kay…"

"good." He helped the youngest to get inside his bed, and wrapped him. He knew he was doing no good in some way doing this, when he felt the kid chill, again, however the chibi needed to be loved, and not just wanted.

"Kai, -asked the little- you will always protect me, you will always replace mom and dad here, won't you?"

Kai was shocked by what the kid had just asked. Some day the would have to return… and he would have to leave Kai alone… "I… don't know."

"…You will have to return?"

"I think so… please, forgive me…"

"Will that happen soon?"

"I don't know… but I'm sure you'll be strong enough when that happens."

"I'll… never be as strong as you…"

"Oh, yes, you will… but only time will tell when. Go-to-sleep."

"Oook."

Both slept again, this time, Kai lied himself next to the kid. He didn't mind the touch, and the little either.

They were friends, and that was enough to trust one another. Days passed slowly, and little Kai focused on the entertainment as hard as he could. Kai taught him some new techniques to prevent the torments and pain that the chibi would get otherwise, and he did well on them. At nights, Kai slept always near little Kai's bed, to take care of him.

Some day, one question told Kai it wasn't going to be easy to leave. Lot of days had passed since he had come, and he didn't know how was him. He had found a way to return, he only needed the moment.

Now the tortures had reduced considerably, just in few moments they kicked the kid, and Kai couldn't help that.

Like once.

Little Kai came crying to the room. That day Kai had stayed at the room, because little Kai had asked him to do so. As little Kai entered the place, Kai walked quickly to him, and grabbed his arm.

"WHAT HAPPENED?"

"n-nothing."

"Kai! What happened, tell me!"

His arm was red, and Kai almost knew what had happened. "he kicked me… it hurts… He told me that if I cried… he… he was going to come at night…"

"did you cry?"

little Kai said 'no' with his head. "no… just… a few… tears…"

"No!"

"I couldn't… help it… forgive me please!!" Apologized, as Kai slowly ran his hands by the his arm, comforting the pain.

"don't worry… please… just… don't cry more… we'll see… what we do this night."

The kid put up his sight, and looked at the elder eyes "mom and dad wouldn't have let this happened, would them?"

"no, they wouldn't… they would have protected you… the opposite I did…"

"they aren't here… anymore... and they won't be."

Kai realized that young Kai was thinking difficult things… he was growing up. And as he grew up, days passed, and Kai had to return.

"Kai, -asked the little Kai once. – are you going to leave? Are you going to leave me, because you must return?"

"I… I… I'm sorry." A tear ran by his cheek. "I think so." He whispered.

"why are you crying?"

"because I don't want to leave you, but I must do it."

"don't worry… -slowly little Kai wiped away the tears in Kai's eyes. "Dranzer will take care of me… and of you."

"Kai… forgive me."

"you did anything… it's something you must do."

"you're old enough now… I know it since you started thinking about things that, perhaps, aren't for your age. Like the death of mom and dad."

"I think… I can't think anything now."

Kai went down to his knees at the high of the little Kai. "come here." He said opening his arms.

Little Kai moved, slowly, and gave in by resting his head in Kai's chest, and letting him round his back with his arms. Then he wrapped Kai too.

A strong noise behind the door cut their embrace, and their breath.

"No! He's here!" gasped the youngest.

"don't worry. He won't touch you… not now… I must protect you…"

"Kai?"

"I… must…"

The door opened suddenly. The chibi paralyzed… but Kai didn't.

"Now you can't see me… but I can see you…"

"Kai?"

"No, I'm Boris, you're completely scared, my little puppet…"

Kai smirked. "He's not mad… you're mad… and out of your league, Boris…"

Chibi Kai smiled hopefully. He ran and hided himself behind Kai's legs.

"Kai? What are you doing running around the room…? Don't you realize that this room is not big… and sooner or later I'll catch you?"

"Kai's protecting me…" assured the little one

"You're Kai, little idiot." Complained the man, laughing sarcastically.

"Stop it. Kai, grab Dranzer… remember what we practiced?" asked Kai.

"I remember it…" chibi Kai smiled again.

"You remember me? Good, then you know I'm more powerful than you… and you can do nothing against my power… muhahaha!!" laughed the dirty old man, coming closer to Kai.

"Now Kai!!" commanded the teenager.

"Fire Arrow Attack!! Dranzer, Now!!!!" shouted chibi Kai, with all his will. A barrier of fire took its place between the old man and the other two. Kai smirked, and looked at the bright look in chibi Kai's eyes.

"It's time to get outta here!" ordered Kai, handing the youngest on his arms.
