Outside Kenny looked at his watch Hilary had been gone for half an hour, he stood and walked into the Kitchen.

"Hilary?" he looked around there was a strange smell in the air, he stood for a couple of moments wondering where Hilary was when something on the table caught his attention, a letter addressed to Kai, Ray, Tyson, Max and Kenny. He opened it and began to read:

Dear Blade Breakers

By now you will know that I have a few of your closest friends in my care, this includes the young girl I just picked up. Hilary isn't it? You should have kept more of an eye on her!

Tell no one what has occurred or she will suffer for it.

I will be in touch, until then you had better bring Dranzer out of retirement I want to see him.

Boris

Kenny stood for a moment unable to move

"Guys! KAI! RAY! MAX! TYSON!"

Kai was the first one to enter the room Kenny looked at him, and wordlessly handed him the note "Hilary" he gasped when he read it, his hands balling up into fists. The others had followed him and watched puzzled, Kai passed the note to Tyson who read aloud and Kenny watched as they all reacted to the news.

"We need to go see Mr Dickinson" Max was the first to break the silence. Kai looked up at him astonished, not realising what he was doing he walked towards Max menacingly and grabbed his clothing and lifting him up off his feet pressed him against the wall.

"The note says 'tell no one' we tell no one" Max struggled to breathe.

"Kai!" Ray and Tyson grabbed him and pulled. Max dropped to the floor coughing and spluttering Kai seemed detatched as he spoke

"You don't know Boris like I do, if he says that she will suffer, he will hurt her like none of us can imagine"

"Alright, we won't tell." Kenny agreed hastily, "but we need to do something though"

"What I don't get is why he wants Kai to find Dranzer"

"Same old four sacred bit beasts shit I suppose." They all stared had Max just cursed? Max was looking up at Kai with a hurt look on his face.

"Kai and I need to talk, leave us alone" Tyson Ray and Kenny gave each other looks unsure whether or not to leave them alone but Max was suddenly looking very angry, unusual for him and the look on his face meant he wasn't to be argued with the three of them made quickly for the door and together they practically fell through it.

"Max I'm sorry" Kai stared at the ground he was devastated at the loss of Hilary but, how could he have done that to the kid he had started to consider a little brother?

"Kai, it's alright…," Max stared at him understanding dawning and relaxing the harshness on his face "I should have guessed a long time ago how you felt about Hilary I understand!" Kai's head snapped up and he stared at him,

"What do you mean?"

"Wow you don't even realise it yourself yet, do you?" Kai stared at his friends face, he was grinning hard.

"Don't realise what?" Kai gave him a death glare but it had no affect as Max only laughed

"Look you haven't concentrating on the game recently, I noticed it a while ago, I wasn't sure what it was at first but all you've seemed to do these past few days is stare at Hilary."

"That's not true"

"I beat you yesterday don't get me wrong Kai I wanted to…., but next time I win against you I hope it's because I am good not because of Hilary's new green top!"

"It was blue,…" Kai corrected him then paused blushing (yes he blushed! I know totally ooc but work with me here!).

"Kai!" Kai looked at Max and was surprised to see him frowning "Hey I know what its like, on the one hand she is a team mate on the other she's a friend and you don't want to lose either of those facts but you really want something more, you might not know what it is yet but its more than you have with her right now."

Kai stared at him unsure, he wasn't one to talk about his feelings but Max had just described the thoughts that had been going through his head for so long that he couldn't help himself as he said disbelievingly,

"You've been through this as well?" He, slid down the wall he was leaning against to the ground. Max grinned to himself who would have ever thought that the surly Kai would need help with a girl!

"Look right now we have to concentrate on getting her and the others back, we all care about her! But when this is all over Kai you need to decide what you want most. Is friendship enough or do you need more?"

Kai thought hard, if he told Hilary how he thought he felt and she reacted badly he would lose the friend who could find him when he wanted to disappear, the girl who spoke her mind and told him exactly what she thought of him. He couldn't bear to lose that. No one else ever dared to question him, but he wasn't even sure if he loved her yet!

"I would rather have her as a friend than not at all." He spoke decidedly and ignored the voice in his head that tried to tell him otherwise.

"That's up to you but if you ask me you won't be able to handle it"

"What do you mean?"

"Kai believe it or not I know a bit about you by now and you, are the jealous type, Hilary is very pretty, she's lots of fun and Kenny says she is getting to be more popular with the guys that she works with, basically when Hilary starts dating someone seriously - which she will- you won't be able to anything"

"She hasn't really shown any interest in seriously dating anyone before"

"Not because she doesn't want to," Max grinned "She has had dates but never told us"

"What? When?" Kai looked up he didn't know this

"She never told me about them till afterwards, she got a bit wary about introducing us to guys after the incident with Santos"

Kai smiled he remembered well what had happened when Hilary had been picked up by her date. Each of the Blade Breakers had turned on him while she was getting her jacket and threatened that if he ever hurt her he would suffer, She had arrived back two hours later furiously angry and it had been some time before she would talk to any of them.

"Hilary can do what she likes" Max looked at Kai hard look had come into his eyes as he said this and Max saw that he had made a point that Kai was going to think about.

"Kai you can't decide that, not now, right now we need to wait for Boris" Max grinned "besides you may feel differently when you finally see her with some other guy." A thought occurred to Kai

"Max who…?"

"Who did I have feelings for?"

"Yeah, I mean was it Hil…?"

"Hilary, NO! don't get me wrong she's great but I lost my heart a while before I met her, good thing too, If you and I ever became love rivals I don't fancy my chances"

--

Hilary groaned she felt as though she had been hit by a truck, her body ached her head was pounding her throat dry and aching, she opened her eyes but this proved to be a bad idea as bright light shone down into them causing her intense pain. She tried to sit, but her head began to spin and her arms wouldn't do what she wanted.

"Hilary?" the voice was familiar she opened her eyes again it hurt less this time and she saw in front of her a cloud of pink.

"Mariah?" the cloud of pink began to take shape and soon she could see the friendly face in front of her "Mariah!"

"Hilary!" Hilary winced as the blader threw her arms around her, "I was so worried you were unconscious for so long"

"Takes more than that to get rid of me,"

"Is she awake?" Hilary turned her head,

"Hiro, Rick good to see you guys again,"

"I wish it was under different circumstances" Hiro stood by her bed

"You and me both! Next time lets do this over pizza," Hilary was pleased to see Mariah smile at this comment Mariah usually had such a sunny mood it was hard to see her look so down. "Where are we?"

"Your home for god knows how long" Hiro looked around severely he pointed to a door "the bathrooms through there and we do everything else in here."

"Don't worry the guys will come for us," Hilary leant back on her bed tired, what the hell had they knocked her out with?

"That's the problem though" Rick came forward "they want the Blade Breakers to come here."

"Why"

"Something to do with Bitbeasts" Hilary instinctively clutched her locket, still there good!

"Please" she begged weakly "Do not tell me this is to do with the stealing of and or creating copies of the four sacred bitbeasts"

"Something like that" Hiro looked down at her surprised.

"Bloody hell" she pushed the covers back and swung her legs down off the bed thanking God she was still fully dressed, "Not again" Hilary jumped off the bed and wobbled slightly as her legs got used to holding her up. "Is there anyone else listening?" She spoke loud enough for all to hear.

"Hello my dear, good to hear you're voice again" Boris' silky voice sounded loudly in the room. Hilary instinctively shivered but she wasn't going to let him scare her.

"Look you freak, better and more deserving people have tried to take and control the four sacred bit beasts, the Blade Breakers have held onto them" She wasn't sure where to yell at but seeing a camera in the corner she directed her anger there. "I am fed up with being Kidnapped and being used, I hope the Blade Breakers don't come"

"Are you sure about that? What do you think will happen to you my dear when they do not come and you are of no use to me?" Hilary didn't show any fear, she was severely pissed off and her anger overpowered any feelings of terror that she might have.

"I don't care, I really no longer care! You are a sick son of a bitch and I don't care what you do to me I truly don't" Behind her a door opened, she spun around in front of her stood a pale man with evil eyes and purple hair

"Boris" Hilary was terrified but she refused to show it, "I would say its good to see you but I never was much of a liar"

"You don't care what I do to you?"

"No!" it was a lie but Hilary was to stubborn to even think of taking it back, Boris advanced towards her an evil smile playing on his lips

"Are you sure about that?"

Hey two cliffhangers in a row, not bad! OK people you know what to do R&R
