'Heisan'!!(HeHe, that means Hallo in norwegian:P) Thanks for all the reviews!!! Oki, on with the story!!!
SummaryTyson has disappeared, and He has taken his place! Ray has no idea what is going on, but Kai and Max are on their way to find Tyson and bring him back. But how can they get rid of 'mini-Kai'? And where is Voltaire now?
Some of the chapter titles comes from songs I have been listening at when I'm writing:
1 In these times: "In these times" – Joan Armatrading
3 Things I allmost remember: "Once upon a December" – Disney, Anastasia
9 Broken Wings: "Broken Wings" – Chris DeBurgh
10 I can see clearly now: "I can see clearly now" – Johnny Nash
11 This is where I belong: "This is where I belong" – Bryan Adams
They are all beautiful songs!
Chapter 11: This is where I belong
"Kai?...I dont know if you have noticed...but, it's kinda...dark...in here..."
"So? Are you afraid of the dark or something?"
"What!? No, of course I'm not!" Max answered, a bit to quickly. Kai snorted and tried to walk as quietly as he could.
"Well, I cant see anything. Can you?"
"Sure...there is a huge spider on your shoulder."
"WHAT?! GET RID OF IT!!! GET RID OF IT!!!"
"Calm down! I was only joking!"
"You were?"
"Yes, of course! It's in your hair...see? Now it's gone..."
"Thanks dude"
DUNK!
"AU! What the heck was that?"
"Kai?What is going on?"
"Dont know. I think I walked into a wall..."
"You mean, it's a dead end?"
"Looks like." Kai walked over to the wall to find a door or something that could lead them to Tyson. But, there was nothing. Behind him, he could feel that Max leaned against the opposite wall.
"You know? I actually think that...AAAAAH!!!!"
Then, everything went quiet. "Max? Are you there? MAX?!"
"Argh...I think I found a door..."
"No, you didn't. You fell through the wall! Max you're a genious!!!"
"Can I get that in writing?"
"Come on!" He grabbed Max's hand and dragged him into the new corridor. It didn't take long time before they could see light in the end of it. They came into a small room, and when I say 'small', I really mean it. Actually, It was a closet. They found out that in the same secound they walked into it. Then they opened the two closet-doors, and came into a cosy room, that was bathed in sunlight. There was a lot of toys in there, and a bed stood in one of the corners. Kai gasped.
"What is it?"
"It's my old bedroom! And...TYSON!" He ran over to the boy that was sitting in the corner behind him. He didn't seem injured, he was just sleeping.
"Well, that is so typical Tyson."
"Can you wake him up?"
"I got a feeling that waking him up is not a wery good idea, I think that we just should..."
"You're not thinking about dragging him with you, are you?"
"Well, ehm...I was thinking about it, but..." He lifted the sleeping Tyson up on his back(not without difficulties), and walked over to the door(not the closet-door if that was what you thought). "...since you are sutch a joy-killer."
Max laughed. "It's the first time I have been called a 'joy-killer'." They came into a new hallway, like the one where the mirror had been hanging on the wall. A dusty chandelier was hanging from the cealing, but it was long time since it had stopped shining. There was two huge windows on the opposite wall, and the carpet under them was decorated with red birds. Kai smiled, and remembered when he was a kid, he could nearly see himself walking down the corridor. But all that was in the past, and it could never come back again. He would never have that feeling again.
"Kai. I just thought about something."
"What?" Kai answered, still in his own thoughts.
"Oh no! Kai! What about Ray?! We left him alone! With Him!"
Kai looked at him, and then both of them ran down the hall as fast as they could.
"You know, I got a bit scared for a secound. I thought that you had met Him." Ray sat down around the kitchen table, and looked up at Tyson, who now stood in front of the window, and steared out at the falling snow.
He laughed, "Oh, you know me. But I actually think that he is gone."
"What do you mean? I thought that he was trying to kill Kai?"
"Yeah, I thought so too, but...not anymore."
"Hm..." Ray looked at his friend with worryed eyes. "Something wrong? You're acting so strange."
Tyson turned towards him again, now with a grinn on his face. "No, nothing wrong."
Suddenly Ray could see a flash of red in his eyes. "You're not Tyson!"
"No, I'm not."
"Ummmmh...Hey? KAI! SET ME DOWN! NOW !" Kai stopped halfway down the stairs, and sat Tyson down. He looked at him with a confused look, but didn't get any further, since Kai grabbed his arm, and nearly dragged him down the stairs.
"KAI! What is going on?!"
"Sorrry, Tyson! No time to explain!" Kai kicked the kitchen-door open, and ran inside. Ray stood with his back against them, in the middle of the room. A little girl stood in front of him, the sunlight shone on her brown hair and white dress. It felt like time moved slower than usual, when Anya smiled and looked at her older brother. And then, she disappeared. It took a while before everyone could move again, and Max was the first.
"Ray? Are you okay?"
"She saved me...Kai?" He looked up at him. "I think you got an angel in this house..."
It was quiet for a long time. "Im sorry Ray..." Ray blinked confusedly. "Why?"
"I left you alone without protection...you didn't even know that it was him...he was leading us away from you, so he could take you first..."
"It's okay, Kai. It's not your fault..."
"It is! But now, I've got enough!" The others looked at each other, and then back at him.
"We are leaving! Now! Go upstairs and pack all your things! Im calling Mr. Dickenson. And remember to stick together!" They didn't hesitate at all, but ran out of the kitchen, and left Kai alone with his thoughts. Once again, he was going to leave his home, but this would be the last time...Every one who sat their foot inside those doors, would be in danger. And he couldn't do anything about it...except from running away from it. He punched his fist in the table! He was so sick of it, allways running away! But what else could he do? He couldn't fight! Not against this...not against himself, and his own guilt...not against pure evil...
"I dont believe it!!!" Kai ran out in the hallway where all the others where standing with their baggage.
"Whats wrong, Kai?" Ray asked, It looked like he wanted to get out as fast as possible. Kai couldn't blame him that.
"That damned phone! It's broken! And we cant use mobile-phones in here eighter!"
"Wha...? Why not?"
"It's too mutch protection around here, made by bit-beasts. But, I dont think that it would be any problems...We can find a telephone in the village."
"Okay guys! Finally, we are leaving this damned place!!!"
"Oh, I promice you, I wont miss it!"
Kai smiled silently, and looked up at the stairs. Deep inside, he could feel that he was sad, leaving his old home. But he had to. It was not because of him, but the others. He couldn't let anything happen to them...he had never told them before, but he really did care about them. And then he remembered something he had heard long time ago...When you really care about someone, you would do anything to protect them. No matter what the cost! Now, Kai was thinking, that the person who told him this, was right... But he knew, deep inside, that this was where he belonged...and never would he see it again...
I'm sorry, this was sutch a short chapter! (and I didn't like it)! I think that I can manage to write one, maybe two, more chapters before I'm going to Denmark. And do not think that because they are leaving, the story is over!!! It's just began...
Please Review...
