Chp. 2

3 weeks after the Beyblade champion-ships ended. The Ice Crystal girls separated, and went to there homes. Lena and Alissa separated but went to explore opposite boarders of Russia.

Frost entered a cool dark forest not noticing the dark clouds above growing dark and dangerous, threatening a harsh Russian blizzard. She continued enjoying the quiet, tranquility of the forest, as she launched Snow, and called her forth, and it rose. The bit beast stood next to Frost, and they continued forward, running and racing threw the trees, as snow soon started to fall from the dark clouds above. Frost kept going deeper though, even as her wise friend warned her it wasn't safe. And soon as Snow had warned frost, the blizzard started climaxing reaching its point, and soon the snow was blowing every where, and the tempters dropped harshly.

Frost called snow back to her blade, afraid shed loose her in the storm. Trying to find her way threw the Artic like storm, nearly freezing, she felt as though all was lost and she'd probably die if she didn't soon find shelter. She continued on, hoping and by chance she'd find something, anything to keep her warm from the storm. AS she went she spotted a glow in the snow and called out, hoping get would be a house or some one, though the thought kind of left, as her world stared going black and she called out more.

"Please! Can any one hear me! Some one, any one help!!!" She called out as she collapsed numbly into the snow.

Some one had hearted her, but it wasn't who she had expected. Tala had heard some on calling out in the storm, but just barely, and had decided to check it out, he put his warm clothing on, and went out. He looked around in the blizzard, and spotted a girls body. He went over and picked her up, bridal style, not really looking at who it was, and took her into the cottage. As he went into the light and saw who it was, and that she was barely concise, frowns etched on his features.

"what are you doing all the way out here? and in that storm?" He asked urgently as he lay her in front of his fire place and got ones of blankets and covered her to warm her. Then sat on the floor and hugged her to help warm her. touching her gently on her forehead, shivers were sent down his spine, for she felt as clod as an ice cube.

'Damn, she's practically frozen...what the hell was she doing out there?' Tala thought as he rocked her back in forth in his arms, resting his chin on her head, as he did so.

Frost was to clod to reply to his question, as he rocked and wrapped her in blankets. Her body screaming for joy as the warmth invaded her frozen body.

"I'll be amazed if you don't happed to catch anything." He joked and smiled softly, and he touched her forehead once again.

"T-T-Thanks..." Frost managed to mumble, as she closed her eyes, and rolled up into a ball, like a wolf did when it would go to sleep, or if it was cold. But she remained awake, and opened her eyes to look at Tala.

She moved a little and brought forth her blade, and handed it to him. "P-please launch her..." Frost said still mumbling, and Tala nodded and did as he was asked.

Once her blade was spinning, frost called snow out, who ran to here and started to sniff and make sure he mast was safe then went and curled up in a corner or the room.

Tala went and got something out of a drawer, and launched his own blade, and called Wolburg forth. Wolburg went over to snow and smelled snow then curled up next to her licking her noise affectionately.

"Well now your name matches your body. Frosty now has Frost bite!" Tala said joking, as he ran a hand threw Frost now damp hair. Her blanket was wet as well from the snow that had been on her. He unwrapped her, and looked away as he got up and got some of his clothes from a drawer, and handed them to her with out looking. Seeing that her clothes had stuck damply to her body. she thanked him, and went into the bathroom to change. While she had been changing, Tala had made a bed out of the couch in the room.

"You can sleep here tonight." Tala said smiling.

"Where will you sleep?" Frost asked in return.

"Oh me? don't worried about me, I sleep up in the loft up there." He said as went to her and wrapped her in some more blankets, and then picked her up bridal style like before and laid her on the couch bed.

"You do know i can walk, right?" Frost asked kind of annoyed.

Tala completely ignored her question as he covered her, and left to another room, where it lead frost didn't know. The sounds of some one opening a can, pots being moved around, and a phew being dropped, and then the sound of some one starting a stove was heard.

Frost lay looking around, she spotted his suit case, then looked up to where he said he slept, then at the warm fire. Though no windows had been opened, Frost gave a slight shiver, as Tala came back in Caring a bowl and spoon.

" Are you alright?" He asked, sitting on the bed side, noticing her shiver.

"Fine. Better than before at least... thank you..." She replied sitting up and wrapping the blankets around her body a little more.

He nodded as he set the bowl down on the night stand and helped her.

"Tala please, i can sit up my self..." She said stopping and blushing.

"Tala realized he had put his hand on her hip, and the other behind her back, and also noticed how close he was to her, almost cradling her as he helped her. This caused him to blush and let go.

"Sorry..." He said looking away.

She nodded and sat up, her knees to her chest, and resting her head on them.

"So why where you out in the Blizzard? "Tala asked pulling more blankets around her.

"Just wandering around. What are you doing in the he middle of this forest?" She answered as she also asked her own question.

He frowned not really wanting to be the one questioned.

"Kais grandfather, Voltaire, sends me, Kai, Spencer, Ian, and Bryce to 5 different locations once the season ends. Yeah the guys abusive and not to mention hard, but to keep people and the government from getting suspicious of him, he sends us all away, as though where going home, for a month. Where all monitored to make sure we don't try to escape. Which I hope Kai isn't...Uh, anyways, yeah that's why..." Tala replied, hoping she hadn't caught the comment about Kai.

A deep frown etched on her features then. Sure she didn't care much for him, but on of her best friends cared a ton for him, and worried sick about him all the time. Getting a little information on him couldn't hurt could it?

"What do you mean, 'I hope Kai isn't...'?" Frost asked

"Well...I'm not..." Tala looked at her and she was giving him the worst heart wrenching puppy dog face. "Huh, fine. When we've been sent away, more than once has Kai tried to escape only to get caught and severely beaten. He knows he supposed to stay in the allowed areas, but he's a free spirit and hates his grandfather, who is Voltaire, but any ways kais just always trying to escape, and all ways gets in trouble trying to revolt or any thing, he's a little rebel. Foolish kid, always worrying me..." Tala sighed.

"You care for him like a brother huh?" Frost asked.

"Yeah you could say that..." Tala replied. "You hungry?" Tala asked then.

"Uh...I guess..." She replied.

Then he smiled, which was an odd thing to see, and sent chills down her already cold enough spine. She'd really never seen him smile, just smirk. He got the bowl and gave it to her, along with the spoon.

"Here, i made you some soup, maybe its cooled of a little...It should help you get warm again..." Tala said.

She only nodded her thanks, and ate a little. One or two hours passed and in the time they didn't talk much, just gazed around, unsure what to talk about.

"Well I'm off to bed...If you need anything just holler." Tala said as he climbed up to his bed in the loft.

Frost felt a little Lonly though she new she wasn't, she just didn't want to lose his company. But she'd never fully tell any one that, not even him. So, she started shivering uncontrollably.

"I'm so cold she whimpered, pretending to try and get warmer.

"Tala jumped down from where he was and went to her side. He laid behind her, on top of the blankets, and wrapped his arms around her to try and help her feel warmer. She turned around in his arms and faced him, snuggling into him deeper. He gave her an odd glance, but shrugged it off.

'Why not? if i helps make her warmer, I'll let her for now.' Tala thought.

Frost felt great, snug and warm. She yawned tiredly, and soon feel asleep in Tala's arms. Snow picked her head up to look at her master, and a small smile appeared on her lips, as Wolburg did the same.

/. That's new master. Your actually hugging some one.\ Wolburg said telepathically.

'Shut it alright? I'm just doing this to help her get better.' Tala replied.

/.You mean you actually have feelings?!\ Wolburg asked mocking Tala in surprise.

'Oh shut up!' Tala replied.

/. Oh no not yet. That's why your constantly talking about her, oh and did i mention you've stated talking? 4 years ago you'd answer with only a 'Hn?, like Kai still dose, except around Lena. Now you have more of a vocabulary! And Dranzer says Kai feels like shooting your mouth off because of it, but i think its good your talking. I think this girl is doing all this, changing you. I mean...\

'Let me guess you've fallen for snow, am i right?' Tala asked sighing with annoy-meant at his Bit beast.

/. What i cant ignore my feelings for her, She's so fine!.\ Wolburg replied, nestling next to snow, who nuzzled her nose under his and feel to sleep.

'listen just stay out of it okay? Your like 1000 years old, and I'm only 17, and not to mention Frost is only 16!' Tala snapped.

/. So? You just turned 17, and frost turns 17 in 2 weeks.\ Wolburg replied.

'Shhh. Just go to sleep!' Tala snapped again, annoyed his bit beast was trying to meddle in his Daily life like a father, or annoying adult who thinks he knows everything.
