blitzkreig50889: we're back! And we've got another chapter for you. However, I must say I'm a little disappointed in the reviews I got or maybe I should say the lack of reviews.

Kai: yeah. She tells you I'm coming back and the review ratings seem to drop. What's up with that?

Bryan: can it Kai. Maybe people weren't able to get to the story before she decided to put another chapter.

Tala: yeah, besides, the other chapters were doing just fine. People probably just didn't realize another chapter had gone up that's all.

Ian: yeah, quit being such a worry wart, Kai.

Kai: if you guys don't shut up I'll kick all of your asses, despite my broken leg.

Tala: if you can move.

Kai: why you…

blitzkreig50889: that's enough guys. And just out of curiosity Kai, how did you break your leg?

Kai: tripping over a pile of junk that had been turned invisible by Tyson and Dragoon.

blitzkreig50889: no wonder you're not in a good mood. Sorry about that.

Kai: no big deal.

blitzkreig50889: Anyway, on to chapter 6. Bryan, you know what to do.

Bryan: yeah, I know. The disclaimer. I didn't forget about it.

Tala: then do it already!

Bryan: I am! blitzkreig50889 does not own beyblade or any of its characters. She just owns the plot ideas she comes up with.

blitzkreig50889: thank you Bryan. Now, on to chapter 6. Hope you like it. Oh and sorry about this but it's going to be a little long.

Ian: great. Thanks for the warning.

blitzkreig50889: you're welcome

Ian: (anime fall)

Chapter 6—Kai's Return and Bryan's Escape

(Kai's P.O.V)

I hurried down the street towards the abbey. I had to get the others out, I had to. I couldn't believe I'd been stupid enough to think they'd gotten out. After all, it had been almost two days and they hadn't met me at our meeting spot. They would never go back on their word.

Rounding a corner, I darted into the shadows and began looking for the easiest way into the abbey. Guards were everywhere, which was unusual since they were almost never out and about during the day. I saw several of them talking and decided to move closer.

"How the fuck are we supposed to find Papov, if it's almost thirty below and the little guy is as smart as an eel?"

I gasped. Ian had escaped? But if he'd escaped, why hadn't he come to the spot we were supposed to meet? It made absolutely no sense. Unless…maybe Tala had thought I had abandoned them and gave Ian a different set of directions. But what were those directions?

Curious as to how long Ian had been gone I moved closer. The guard's voices became more distinct.

"Papov's been gone for a day already and no matter what Boris tries to do Kuznetzov, Ivanov, and Pterov won't open their mouths. I just don't get it. They obviously know where he is but they won't tell us. Why go through that much torture just to protect someone. It's ridiculous."

I grinned, glad I was hidden in the shadows and that the guards couldn't see me. It was just like Bryan, Tala, and Spencer to know how to protect someone. Yet, part of me was worried. How were they protecting themselves?

Deciding that I would have clear answers to my questions if I went inside and found them, I jumped over the fence. My new DNA that had been given to me by Boris was that of a cat so it was easy to jump over the fence. Add in my bit beast's abilities and it was an extreme piece of cake. Still, I stayed to the shadows just to be safe. I still had to get into and through the abbey without being discovered or I would suffer worse than any of my teammates had ever suffered. And then how would I be able to help them?

(Inside the Abbey…)

"Did you hear about Ian? He escaped!"

"What are you serious?"

"Yeah! The guards are all furious about it. Just think about it though. If Ian managed to escape, we probably can too."

"That sounds awesome. I want out of this place. Do you think Tala, Bryan, and Spencer will tell us how they got Ian out?"

"Maybe if we ask nice enough. You know how they are; they don't do anything for anyone unless they have to."

"True, but maybe this was their way of getting everyone in Biovolt to gather together. Maybe they are helping everyone buy showing us it's possible to escape!"

"Maybe. Let's go find them and ask!"

I smiled. So it seemed Tala had come up with another plan after all and it had started with Ian. None of the boys I'd been listening to had even known I was there. At least that had gone right, but how much more luck was I going to have? I had nowhere to hide in this place. All I had was Dranzer's magic and if that were to fail, I would be sunk.

"Okay, Dranzer, I'm moving now. Can you still handle the spell?"

"Yep, no problem. You're clear for movement."

I almost sighed in relief. Dranzer's blessing was a relief. Now, all I had to do was follow the two boys who I had been listening to and hope they led me to my teammates.

(Bryan's P.O.V)

I grimaced. How was it possible for one person to make such an idiot of himself? First I passed out from my injuries and now I had somehow gotten myself into a beyblade match with one of Biovolt's best beybladers. On top of that, I was still trying to figure out how I was going to escape.

"Bryan, you might want to watch what you're doing or you'll get your ass kicked," Falborg warned. "Oh, and by the way, someone familiar is watching us."

Cautiously I looked up from my beybattle. Boris wasn't anywhere in sight, but there was someone in a cloak that looked awfully familiar. It was hard to tell who it was since he was blurred, but still he seemed familiar.

"Do you not recognize him?" Falborg queried.

"No, who is he?"

"Finish your beybattle and I'll tell you then. I don't want you to give him away since it's only because of me that you can see him."

Baffled I did as told. Within seconds my opponent had been defeated and I was finally allowed to leave the arena.

"Who is he Falborg?" I asked once we were out of any close guards sight.

"Kai."

I nearly gasped out loud. Kai was back? "But that's impossible! He escaped two days ago!"

"I know that, but I think he came back for you guys. He probably doesn't know that Ian's escaped yet so just imagine the shock when he finds out."

"Maybe, but I think Kai will probably already know about Ian's escape. He always knows stuff like that."

Falborg just shrugged. He didn't seem to care, but then again, that was nothing unusual. "Let's go let him know that we know he's here without letting anyone else know that we know, okay?"

"Okay," I agreed. In a matter of seconds I was by his side and whispering in his ear.

"I know you're here Kai, so don't play mute with me. Follow me back to the room and we can talk there, got it?"

Kai nodded. He didn't look happy about me knowing he was there. However, within a matter of minutes, I had us back at our room and through the door. Tala and Spencer thankfully were already there.

"Hey, guys, come here a second," I called to them through their bedroom doors. Tala had gotten food poisoning last night and Spencer had gotten a major cold. And all courtesy of Boris none the less.

"What is it Bryan?" Tala grumbled as he opened the door and walked out. He looked like a ghost he was so pale.

"We've got company," was all I said. Spencer must have heard me for he opened his door and walked out to.

"Where?" they both asked, obviously unable to see Kai at all.

I didn't have time to answer them; Kai did it for them.

"Right in front of you."

"Kai?" Tala sounded shocked. "Hey, get rid of the spell so I can see you. I don't like talking to someone who's invisible.

Kai must have dropped his spell for within moments he was visible and grinning slightly. "So, how have things been going since the beatings you received yesterday along with the colds you and Spencer have now?" Kai asked Tala.

Tala just glared at him. "Fine, but we could've used your help."

"I know. That's why I came back."

"Good. Then you can help Bryan come up with an idea as to how he's going to escape."

Kai just blinked and nodded. I just stood there in shock. Kai had never taken orders from Tala before. What the hell was going on here?

"Come with me, Bry, while we let Tala and Spencer recover from their colds."

Stunned, I just did as Kai said. If Kai could get me out, then it was fine by me if I had to take orders from him.

"So, Bryan, have you come up with any ideas of how you want to escape?" Kai asked.

"No, I haven't. Ian was easy to get out compared to me. I have to take his and Spencer's launchers out with me when I go."

"Well, then in that case, we could just have you climb through the vents if you're thin enough and quick enough."

"Kai how is that going to work if I have to carry three launchers with me? Tala sent Ian to get Mr. Dickenson so we could all get him out in the end. He's the last one leaving. If either Spencer or I goof things up, Ian's escape won't help us at all. Tala's depending on us."

"So, that's why Ian didn't meet up with me at the spot where all of us were supposed to meet."

"What?" Now Kai had me confused. "What meeting spot?"

Kai glared at me. "Never mind. Let's work on checking the vents to make sure you can get out of here through them. If you can't get out and if your escape is a way of helping Tala and Spencer escape then I'll do whatever I can to get you out. You have my word and honor on that!"

Startled and relieved I just nodded. "Okay Kai. What exactly do you have in mind?"

(Kai's P.O.V.)

I sighed. These vents were all too small around here for Bryan to climb through carrying three launchers. I still had no clue as to why Bryan was carrying Ian, Spencer, and his own out of here, but he was.

Curiosity however, got the best of me as it usually does and the next thing I knew I was asking him why he was carrying out not only his own launcher, but Ian and Spencer's as well. After all, if Ian had already escaped why hadn't he taken his launcher with him? I was shocked when I heard Bryan's answer.

"We dressed Ian up as a girl so if he would've been carrying his launcher, the guards would've recognized him as he tried to escape. Spencer plans on getting himself outside then swimming through the ice cold water to the nearest shoreline that isn't part of Biovolt territory and if he were to carry his launcher with him it would've either rusted or weighed him down. Ian and I are going to meet him at that shoreline and help him get to the hiding spot that happens to be a part of BBA territory. That is why I'm carrying three launchers and not just my own."

All I could do was stare at him. That was a pretty tough assignment for someone like Bryan who wasn't the most light-footed of people around.

"Well, then," I said after a moment. "I guess I'm going to have to find a pretty big vent if I want you to get out of here, aren't I?"

Bryan chuckled. "That you are if you want me to get out of here alive. If the guards hear any noise up in these vents they're likely to start shooting at them thinking there's a mouse or something in here. You know how most of these guards are afraid of mice, right?"

I grinned. Bryan must have been taking prank lessons from Ian and he was planning on playing one with the guards in order to escape. I guess my vent idea was all he needed.

"Well, I guess you don't need me anymore."

"Actually, Kai, I do. You see, I want you to set the mice loose as I get into those vents that way the guards won't hear me."

I had to admit it was a clever plan. Bryan however was assuming that I would be good enough not to get caught in the process. All I could do was hope his trust in my abilities was right.

"Ready, Dranz?" I asked my bit beast.

"Yes. Does this mean we'll be getting Bryan and ourselves out of here soon?"

"Bryan, yes, but we won't be leaving unless Tala says for us to leave."

"Alright, if you say so, then that's what we'll do."

"Thanks, Dranz, you're the best."

"Aren't I always?" Dranzer was being very optimistic and his optimism raised my spirits. Dranzer was ready to get Bryan and the others out of here by any means necessary. Even if he had to go catch Bryan and I some mice to do it.

"Kai?" Bryan queried from behind me.

"Sorry, I was just asking Dranzer to go and catch us some mice. Ready to get out of here?"

Bryan grinned again. He was obviously getting a major adrenaline rush; definitely a good thing in his current condition. "You bet I'm ready to get out of here. How long do you think it'll take Dranzer to catch those mice?"

"About two minutes to find them then about thirty seconds to catch them and return to us with them."

"Good."

Bryan and I had been waiting for about three minutes when Dranzer returned. Falborg had left to tell Tala that Bryan was leaving and to get Spencer's launcher. He arrived about two minutes after Dranzer had returned.

"Thanks Dranzer, Falborg, you guys really made this easy for me. Kai, are you escaping again, or are you going to hide here until Spencer and Tala are out too?" Bryan looked worried about his teammates who he was leaving behind.

"I'll be here hiding until they get out. Hopefully Ian managed to get to Mr. Dickenson and help is on its way for Tala and I."

Bryan nodded, pleased with my answer despite the second half of it. "Ok. I'll see you when we bring the Calvary in to get Tala out. You can set those mice free now if you want."

I nodded and set them free. They didn't run until Falborg dove at them, then they ran like hell. Guards could be heard yelling in fear as they caught sight of the mice.

As the guards continued to cry in terror Bryan called Falborg into his blade and I had Dranzer hide me with his magic. Bryan had entered the event and I knew that within a matter of minutes he had made it outside. Then, knowing that Bryan was going to be safe thanks to his new vampire DNA, I hurried back to Spencer and Tala's room to hide until the BBA came for Tala and I.

(Outside…Bryan's P.O.V)

I was free! My night vision was unbelievable and the few guards that saw me escaping were unable to catch me. I moved like the wind! Now all I had to do was find Ian's chosen hide out until he returned with our escape team and I'd be good. And oddly enough, I thanked Boris for giving me my new vampire DNA.

(England…Ian's P.O.V)

"C'mon, Mr. Dickenson, there has to be something you can do!" I cried in frustration.

Mr. Dickenson looked thoughtful. "Actually, now that I think about it, there may be a way for me to get you guys out of Biovolt, but I'll have to bring in outside help."

I scowled. "You've got to be kidding me."

"No, Ian, I'm not. I only have two people that might be able to help me get your teammates out. Three, actually if Kai helps."

My eyes grew wide. Kai had been in contact with Mr. Dickenson?

"I see you look surprised. Kai has been helping me for years against his grandfather's wishes. It wouldn't surprise me now if Kai had gone back into Biovolt to help your teammates and friends. After all, even though he won't admit it, Tala, Bryan, and Spencer are his friends too."

All I could do was gape. Kai considered us friends? I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Still, I shook myself and asked the question that had first popped into my head when he had said that there were two other people besides Kai that could help my teammates and I.

"Who are the other two people, Mr. Dickenson? You know, the ones you said could help us besides Kai."

"Why, they're Great Britain's two best spies and assassins. They're Jonathan McGregor and Cassandra Black. And before you ask, yes Jonathan is indeed Johnny of the Majestics."

"Great," I thought to myself. "I'm about to help my friends out by bringing in their two worst enemies. What's next?"

Blitzkreig50889: so what do you think? Sorry about the length of the chapter. I had a lot of describing I had to do in order for this chapter to make sense.

Kai: you're telling me! It's almost nine pages long!

Blitzkreig50889: well, it's not like I was trying to make it that long, I just ended up making it that long.

Bryan: don't worry about it blitzkreig50889. It's no big deal. What matters is that you got it done and that hopefully the viewers will like it. I especially hope they like the twist you put in at the end but that's just my opinion.

Blitzkreig50889: yeah, I guess you're right. (Suddenly realizes that Ian and Tala are gone) hey, where are Ian and Tala?

Kai: taking potty breaks. They just left about a minute ago.

Blitzkreig50889: oh. Anyway, I guess I'm done with all that needs to be said for this chapter. I hope to see a few more reviews though before it's time for me to put up the next chapter. Either way, I hope you enjoyed the chapter and please, please, please review!

Kai: yes, please review or she'll make saying the disclaimer torturous.

Blitzkreig50889: shut up Kai and let the people review already.

Kai: oops! Yes ma'am!

Bryan: (laughs as Kai hurriedly hobbles out of the room then follows him out.)
