Now if you'll excuse me i have Kai tied up to a chair xD

The calm before the storm.

The police man walked up to Kai and shook his head. 'I'm sorry Mr Hiwatari. There's no sign of her anywhere.' He said in russian.

'That's ridiculous.' Said Kai angrily. 'She can't have left the country so quickly without her passport or money or clothes.' His nerves were starting to take a toll on him.

Voltaire put a hand on his shoulder. 'What my grandson is trying to say is that Angel cannot have disappeared into thin air.'

'Mr Hiwatari. I assure you, we've looked everywhere.'

'Well she isn't with me!' Said Kai and he stormed off.

'You can't just explode Kai.' Voltaire stated, catching up with him. 'I know it's been two days but you need sleep.'

'Kai.' called Tyson, reappearing in the doorway with Max and Ray. 'You rang?' he said, smiling.

'Turning to Voltaire, Kai said, 'I'll sleep when I have my wife safe and sound.'

Voltaire walked off, muttering to himself as the three reached him and Kai told them what had happened.

'Knowing my sister, she's probably complaining.' Said Tyson, trying to lighten the mood. 'What does Leo say?'

Kai took Leopold out of his pocket and the three gasped. He was shaking a lot and that was bad. He was always spinning.

'The only thing he can tell me is that she is in pain.' He said quickly. 'And that Gin is in a room nearby.'

Ray put his hand on Kai's shoulder. 'I'm sure she's ok.'

'And i'm sure that who ever's done this is gonna pay.' Said kai dangerously. 'No one touches my wife and gets away with it.'

'I have her!' Said Leo suddenly, leaping out of Kai's hand. 'Follow me, quickly and quietly.' He spun off through the house until he reached a wall. 'Through here.'

Kai pushed and the wall slid inwards, revealing a secret passageway.

'Lead the way.' Said Kai, following Leopold down the corridor, the other three quick on his heels.

As they approached the next door the sounds of a dozen Bey-blades could be heard and then a scream.

'I'll go and get the police.' Said Max, running off.

A few minutes later he returned with about five officers behind him, all with their torches out, just in time for another scream to be heard from inside.

Kai paled and almost collapsed as he thought of all the things that could be going on in the room.

Then, the door was open and the Police charged in, shouting orders at the people in the room.

Kai followed Leopold inside, and was almost stepping on him in his eagerness to find Angel.

'Through here.' Said Leopold, stopping at another door.

Kai opened it and stared in horror at the sight of Angel, bleeding from scratches all over her body, laying on the floor.

'I need someone in here!' he shouted, kneeling down next to her. 'Angel honey wake up, it's me, Kai.' He moved her hair from her face, noticing all the damage. 'Angel, please wake up.'

The paramedics came in and put her on a stretcher, taking her back through the room, behind another stretcher.

He looked at the second stretcher and saw Gin, almost as badly beaten.

Outside the press was going crazy as the two were put in seperate ambulances, Tyson going with Gin and Kai with Angel, to the nearest hospital.

Angel fell in and out of consiousness as her wounds were treated and bandaged up.

She was aware once of a heated argument going on but was unable to tell them to be quiet and let her rest.

When she woke up again, Kai was asleep next to her in a chair, his hand on her bed.

Very painfully she moved her arm and stroked Kai's grey hair, feeling the softness even through her bandages.

He woke up as her fingers moved from his hair to his cheek.

'Angel?' he said sleepily. 'Is that you?'

'Who else would it be?' she asked, her voice cracking from no use.

He opened his eyes at the sound of her voice and smiled.

'I'm so glad you're awake. I was so worried.' he said, taking her hand in his. 'Gin's been awake for a while now.'

'He's ok?' she asked, when Kai nodded, she sighed. 'Good.'

'Apparently you wouldn't tell who ever it was what they wanted to hear.' Said Kai, beaming at her. 'Who was it?'

'I can't remember.' She said as the door opened and Mr D came in. 'I just can't.' Kai hugged her carefully.

'May I have a quick word in private?' Said Mr D, looking at Kai. 'You already know I shan't harm your wife Kai.'

'I'm not leaving her alone again.' Said Kai defiantly.'

'Very well.' Said Mr D. 'Angel, when you're recovered you will only have one thing to do job-wise. Remain a Shark.' He breathed for a second then carried on. 'This is for me to make sure you do not disobey orders or interfere until I give you another job.'

'Yes sir,' Angel said quietly. 'I understand completely.'

'Good. I shall see you when you're feeling better.' he walked out, gancing at Kai as he left, shutting the door.

A week later, Angel sat in the Shark office on her first day back, when Kai came in, looking furious.

Shutting and locking the door after him, she stood behind him, arms around his waist.

'What's wrong?' she asked, sitting in on his lap.

'You.' He said looking at her. 'You've lost your edge. The Angel I married would have fought Mr D's decision, not sit there and take another beating.' he looked away from her as though he was disgusted.

She stood up from his lap and looked at him. 'What are you saying? That you don't love me just because I've changed one little bit?' She asked, tears forming in her eyes.

He looked at her, shocked at what she had accused him of.

'That's not it at all.' he said, standing up.

'Then tell me what "it" is then.' She said, looking at him.

'I-' he sat down. 'I don't know any more.'

Angel stormed out, making the whole office quiet and Kai heard her shouting orders.

He opened the door and called her back into the office.

'Yes boss?' she said coldly, her arms crossed, launcher in her left hand. 'What did you want?'

'Sit.' he siad equally as cold, pointing at a chair.

'I'd rather stand.' she said defiantly.

'Ok fine.' He said, sitting down behind his desk. 'Your attitude lately is diabolical.' he began. 'It's not a good thing with you, so I'm suspending you from duty.'

'WHAT!' she yelled, looking at him. 'Fine, do what you want.' she said walking out again.

An hour later, Gin found her sitting in a tree, staring into space, holding her launcher still.

'Why aren't you with the Sharks?' he asked, looking at her. 'You aren't supposed to leave there.'

'Do you want revenge for what HE did to you?' she asked, ignoring his question.

'I've never thought about it.' He said. 'Why?'

'Apparently because of the incident, I've changed so much my own husband doesn't recognise me anymore.'

'You and Kai have an argument?' Gin asked.

'You could call it a super-nova.' She said, 'He suspended me from duty. I didn't even know he could.'

'What happened?' Gin asked, 'You two don't usually argue.'

'I've no idea.' Replied Angel. 'We just both snapped.'

'So what's this about revenge?' Gin asked, sitting down next to her. 'Mr D's gonna fire you for sure if you do anything.'

'But I'm one of his best agents.'

'You were one of his best.' Said Gin. 'You should have waited for me to call for help.'

'Oh that's the thanks I get for saving you?' She jumped down and out of sight. Gin got straight on the phone.

Angel looked at Leopold. 'Let's go back to Russia.'

'You're upset. There's no chance.' he said, annoyed.

'I need to settle this.' She said. 'For my marriage.'

'Our marriage is fine.' Said Kai appearing in front of her.

'But you said I'd changed.' she said, crossing her arms.

'I did, but I was angry.' He said, hugging her. 'I'm sorry.'

Angel broke down then, crying into Kai's chest. 'So am I.'

'Do you remember who it was yet?' he asked when she stopped crying.

'It was Boris.' She sobbed. 'I remembered earlier.'

Kai was on the phone quickly. 'It's confirmed. Arrest him.' he said, then hung up. 'Gin wasn't sure so the police were on standby outside his house here.' Kai explained.

'Oh.' Said Angel quietly. 'What was he doing in Japan?'

'Conference with my Grandfather.' said Kai looking at her. 'Don't worry you won't have to testify. Voltaire's made sure of that.'

Angel kissed him as her pager went off. 'Everytime.' she muttered.

'You better go.' he said, putting her hood straight. 'Be careful.'

'Look whose talking.' She laughed. 'I'll be home after this.'

'Ok I'll be awake.' he said, starting to walk off. 'Things to do.'

When he looked back, Angel had disappeared into the trees.
