Chapter 12

"Amazing!" Hilary looks at the lake, which laid near the ruins. Ray and Kenny nods in agreement, Tyson… well he was busy looking into a ruin house. Hilary noticed this and glared at him, Ray and Kenny wisely move backwards.

"Hilary shall we continue to look through the ruin?" Ray hurries to ask her before she decides to kill Tyson. Hilary nods and they start their search again.

Ray had walk further away from the rest of the group and he then notice something lying on the ground. 'Hmm what this?' He picks it up and he see it is a fabric, but he stiffens when he sees what's standing there. 'It can't be?' It stood Biovolt on the fabric. Ray eyes darkens and he remembers what he and Kai had discussed sometime ago. 'So our guess was correct, they are after Aurora. But why?'

/Because she was from this village, she has something they want/ Driger answered wisely.

Ray has as a surprise look on his face. 'But what those Aurora have they want?'

/That I can't tell, we bit beasts aren't allowed before some requirements are met/ Driger closes the link.

'What is going on here?' Ray looks at the fabric, before putting it in his pocket. He walk back to the others and see that Tyson and Kenny was still looking though the ruin, but he couldn't see Hilary anywhere. 'I wonder where Hilary is?' Ray walked up to Kenny, Kenny looks up when he hears footsteps.

"Have you found anything?" Ray asks him. Kenny shakes his head. "No we haven't found anything. How about you?"

"Well… I found something but I want to wait till everyone is here. But where is Hilary?"

"Oh she decided to look near the small mountain and see if she find something there instead." Ray nod.

"Hey Guys! Come on look at this!" They hear Hilary yell. When they see her they notice that she is looking at something.

"What is it?" Ray asks.

Hilary points at the mountain. "Look!" They look up and see that something is written on the mountain, but the problem is that they're unable understand what it's saying!

"How are we going to fins out what is standing there?" Tyson ask them.

Hilary ponders over this, then she gets an idea. "How about we take a picture of and then send it to your dad Tyson?"

"That's a good idea, Hil!" Kenny says, opens his laptop, takes picture and sends it to Tyson's father via e-mail. Ray smiles, but suddenly he shivers. He looks around and frowns. 'Why do I get a feeling that someone is spying on us?'

Hilary notices this. "Is something wrong Ray?" He shook his head. Tyson and Kenny, who were discussing something, looked up, when they heard the question Hilary asked Ray. Then they just shrugged.

"I wonder what Aurora, Kai and Max are doing?" Hilary says and looks at the sky. Tyson look at her. "Did you say something?"

Hilary shakes her head. "Its nothing." 'But some reason I get a feeling that something bad happened to them.'

Inside the cave

Aurora groans when she finally wakes up, she slowly arise, but gasp when she feel the pain in her right arm. She grabs it and force herself to stand up and look up. 'How high was that fall and how long have I been out?'

/OMG AURORA ARE YOU ALRIGHT?!/ Dieel yells to her and continue to rant on. Aurora winces over how loud he was.

/DIEEL SHUT UP!/ Nox shout and hit him. Dieel glares at him.

/Why did you do that for?/ He demand to know.

/You are just making the worst with your yelling./

/Oh… Sorry Aurora./

'No problem Dieel, but do you guys know how high that fall was.'

/Well not exactly to be honest, but the fall was long./ Nox tells her. /And you were unconscious for a while too./

Aurora looks around and then notices that, she can't see Kai or Max anywhere. 'Can you see if you can find Kai and Max? I can't see them anywhere.'

/Sure./ Nox reply, after few minutes. /They are longer in this cave, but for some reason we can't clearly read their aura./ Aurora nods and starts to walk slowly to Kai and Max location, as Dieel and Nox guided her through the cave.

She sighs. 'This goes to slow, but my body hurt to much to go any faster.'

/What do you expect when you fall down from that kind of hight?/ Dieel asks her amused.

'More pain.' Aurora answers dryly and continues forward. After few minutes Dieel tells her that Max were near by and Aurora managed to walk faster. Then she finally saw him. She slowly bends down. She looks at him and check to see if he has any serious injury, then she carefully shake him.

"Hey Max. Come on wake up." Aurora says softly. She sees that his eyes stir and slowly open them up, he rise up and look around. He rubs his head and groans.

"What happened and where are Kai?"

"Don't you remember that we fell down after the floor crumble and for where Kai is, I don't know."

"Oh." Max slowly rise up from the ground and then notice that Aurora holds her arm. "Is something wrong with your arm?"

Aurora looks at her. "Nothing serious, but it hurts as hell." Max nods and they start to walk. Aurora told Max that Dieel and Nox found their aura, but couldn't tell who were who for some reason. They continue and both hope that Kai were ok, Aurora were especially worried over Kai. 'I hope he is ok.'

/Don't worry Aurora./ Nox says softly. /We are close./

Finally Max and Aurora sees Kai and hurries up to him, both could see that he was unconscious. She did the same has she did with Max when she found him.

"Come on Kai! Wake up!" Aurora says and looks worried. Max were other side to Kai, he also tried to wake him up. Then they hear a grunt from Kai and both are happy when they see that he wakes up. 'Aurora…' Was the first thought Kai had when he woke up and rise up. He then sees that Aurora on his right side and Max on his left.

"We are so glad you are ok." Max says happily.

"Hn."

Aurora smiles softly to Kai and then hugs him with a one handed hug, Kai look down at her, while Max look wide eyed at them.

"I'm so glad you aren't hurt." Aurora whispers softly to him. His eyes soften and carefully lay an arm around her. Max, well he were in shock and probably would have fainted, if it wasn't for the fact that they were inside a cave. 'Damn I feel that I shouldn't watch this and when did they get so close?' Max was confused over this.

When Aurora had stopped hugging Kai, they all rose up and looks around. "Do any of you have any idea how we are going to get out of here?" Max asks them, Aurora shakes her head, while Kai give him the usual 'Hn'. Aurora had even asked Dieel and Nox for help, but they said they couldn't help them out of the cave. She told them so and all three of them sigh.

"The phoenix fly to the sun… The turtle swimming in the sea… The dragon flies with wind… The tiger run on the earth…" They suddenly hear a voice says, they turns around and they see a tall person, but they couldn't see the person face because of the cloak. (A/n: If you have played Kingdom Hearts 2, then is the same cloaked thingy the Nobodies use) All three of them wondered where did he came from. "The two winged wolfs guarding the king… The fox who rules them…"

Kai eyes narrow. "Who are you?" Aurora and Max look at the person and wonder the same.

The person sound amused. "Who I am? That is a question I haven't been asked in long time, but you find out with time, young phoenix." All three of them were silent. "Yes I know who you three also, also those on the outside too."

"What do you want?" Kai demand to know. They were worried for their friends.

"What I want? Nothing, I have only come here to give information to Aurora."

Kai eyes narrowed even more if it was possible, Aurora and Max eyes widen over what he said. "What do you want to tell me?"

"That the person who destroyed the home you had held so dear is someone the young phoenix know, the young tiger have found the clue who it was."

'Is it someone Kai knows?' Aurora thought and gives him a sideways glance.

"The young phoenix and the young turtle have meet his evil and fought against him. But you all must be prepared to fight him once again and the team who are after you." The person point at Aurora.

"Do you mean Mark and Susan?" Max asked, though he was terrified.

"Yes and there are three more."

"Do you know why they are after Aurora then?" Kai asks him.

"Indeed I do, but that you have to find out on your own." All three of them almost glared at him, well Kai was already glaring at him. "I have last information for you. Haven't ever wondered why you got that vision?" Aurora was in shocked to hear that. 'How did he know?! I haven't even told Kai about it!' "Look at your lineage, the necklace and your village history. Then you get your answer you seek." Then that person mumble some words and all three of them feel refreshed. All three of them look at him with a surprise look on their face. 'How did he do that?' All three of them thought. "I shall show you three the path out." He starts to walk. "Follow me."

They look at each other and starts to follow. What did have they lose, if that guy could show them way out so be it. Aurora unconsciously hold Kai hand, Kai notice this and let her. After a while, which felt like several hours they are out the cave. They hurry out.

"Oh man, it feel so good to breathe fresh air again." Max exclaims happily. Aurora smiles and when she turns around to look at the cave entrance, but the person was gone.

Aurora gasps. "Guys! The stranger is gone!" Max and Kai turns around and both see he is gone. Max look around. "Where did that person go? Can that person disappear in tin air?"

"Looks like that stranger can." Kai says with monotone voice. Then they heard his voice again out of now where."

"When the time as come you are going to find your true power which lies deep inside you."

Suddenly she heard the stranger's voice in her head. 'Believe in them, never let your hope die not even in the darkest hour.'

Then there was silence. "What hell is going on here?" Max exclaims.

Aurora shakes her head. "I don't know, but we should look around and see if we can find Hilary, Ray, Tyson and Kenny."

After few minutes they found them near the entrance where they had walk in to the village. When they saw Kai, Aurora and Max they hurry up to them.

"Where have you three been?" Hilary demands to know and place her hands on her hips.

Tyson nods. "Yeah you three have been gone for ages."

Ray saw the look those three gave each other. "What happened?"

"Well…" Aurora starts to say slowly. "We found this cave and…" Aurora starts to explain what happen and Max and Kai tells the details she forgot, but when they starts to tell them about the door and the stranger and what he had said.

"So you say that the stranger knew all along we where here and other things?" Kenny asked them. They nod.

"One of things that was strange was that he told Aurora to look at her lineage, the necklace and the village history. That person talked about a vision Aurora had." Max told them. They all rise an eyebrow at this, except Kai and Aurora.

"What vision?" They asked at the same time, they turn to Aurora, who looks at the ground.

"Do you remember when Ray battle against Susan?" They nod. "I had a vision when that cloaked person showed up."

Hilary looks at her and ask. "What was her vision about?"

Aurora then frowns. "That is the strange part of it." She looks up at the sky. " I saw bit beasts roam free and that human and bit beasts worked together, but then there was suddenly fire. I could hear screams from both humans and bit beasts. Then I saw two people running away from something, but if it was a human or a bit beasts I don't know. So in the end of the vision I hear someone whisper my name and that's it."

"That is really strange." Ray mutters.

"But what does it mean?" Hilary asks, worried for her friend. Everyone looks thoughtful, but none of them doesn't have a cluewhat that vision really meant. Suddenly Tyson stomach growls.

"I'm so hungry!" Tyson moans and held his stomach. Hilary glares at him. "TYSON!" Then her stomach growls too, she blushes.

Tyson points at her and grin. "Ah! You are hungry too!"

"Shut up!"

Ray smiles. "I think we all are hungry." They all walk to a several big stones they could sit on. Kai, Aurora, Hilary and Ray sat on one and Tyson, Kenny and Max sat on the other one close by.

"Oh by the way," Kenny speak up, "We found something on the mountain."

Max cast a sideways glance at him. "What did you find?"

"Well it was Hilary who found it, but there was something written on the mountain." Kenny explains to them.

Kai looks curiously Kenny. "Did you understand what stood there then?" They shake their head.

"No we didn't so Hilary suggested we'd send it to Tyson's father and maybe he could find out what's standing there." Ray explains. Kai, Aurora and Max nods, then Aurora remembers something the stranger had said about something Ray had found.

"Ray did you find anything?" Aurora asks him.

"Why do you ask?"

"Because the stranger told us that you had found something and that Kai know who attack my village."

Ray hesitate a moment. "Well I did find a fabric, but what was written on it explain who it was." He takes it out and gives it to Aurora.

"Biovolt?" She read out loud and notices that everyone tense when they heard the name. "What is it?"

They other look at Kai, Aurora turns around and looks at him. His bangs hides his eyes, he sighs and starts to explain why they were so tense, but Aurora notice there was something Kai wasn't telling her, also that they other didn't seem to notice it. They told her about what happened the first time they were on a team and in the tournament and what happen later on. When they are finished, she only sighs and looks at the sky. 'Now I have theory why they attacked the village, but I don't know what they really wants.'

"What about Aurora?" Kenny asks her, drag her out of her thoughts. "Do you know why they destroyed your village?"

Aurora sighs and gets a sad look on her face. Kai sees this and holds her hand, Ray and Hilary notice this and smile. "Well I only have theory why they did it. You all know that I from this village right?" They nod. "From what I remember few day before they attack is that there was a man with purple hair walk into the village and demand to talk to village chief. My parents and few other showed him the way and they were in one of the houses and talked with him, but he came out after few hours. He was angry" She takes deep breath.

'That sound like Boris.' Kai frowns over this.

"How can you remember all that?" Tyson ask and look wide eye at her.

"I think its because that he was there that day." Aurora became very sad when she starts to think about her parents. They other look at each other, Kai knew why, but decide that Aurora should that for herself.

"Anyway, that man saw me sitting near by and something with his look I didn't like so very much. Then my parents walk out and when saw that he looked at me, they hurries up to me and my mother takes my hand walk away from the man. I look back and saw that my father glares angrily at that man and like I said after few days my village was attack. Many of adult villagers tried to protect younger children, but everyone was killed." Takes deep breath again. "So far as I know Mr. D hasn't found any survives after he found me."

Kenny then looks confused. "How did you find Mr. D. We are several miles away from the city."

"I honestly don't know. I only remember that I was running fast as I could to get away from them."

"What then?" Tyson asks. Hilary leans forward and hit Tyson head. "OW! What was that for?!" Tyson asks angrily and glares at Hilary.

Hilary glares back. "Don't you see that this is difficult for her to talk about?!" Tyson glances at Aurora and he finally saw that it was difficult for her to tell about her past.

"I remember that I was looking for my parents in the fire and found them. They were caught by the purple mans men, he treat to kill them if I didn't follow him, but my parents shouted to me that I had to run away and let Dieel and Nox protect me." Silver tears starts to fall down, they other see this and was in shock. 'Silver tears… but how is that possible?' Was their thought. Kai look sadly at her, they others doesn't notice this.

"What… what about your parents?" Ray asks quietly, same time he knew that he really didn't want to know.

More silver tears start to roll down. "They were killed in front of me." She whispers, they others were in shock silence. Aurora stands up and walks away. After few minutes Kai follow her, Tyson and Max want to follow too, but Hilary, who also had start to cry, and Ray stop them.

"Let Kai get her." Hilary whispers sadly. Ray nod.

"Why?" Tyson demand to know.

"Because I think he is the only who can help her now." Hilary whispers and sits down again. Max then remembers what happened in the cave after they had found Kai and he woke up. Tyson sits down with a pout, deep in his own thoughts. All four of them were silent and they hoped Aurora was going to be ok.

Near the lake

Kai looks around. 'Were is she?' He thought.

/Aww you care for her/ Dranzer says happily.

'You know isn't right time right?'

Dranzer sighs sadly. /I know, be gentle with her ok./ Close the link. Kai sighs and then he hear someone crying. He knew right away that it was Aurora.

Kai walked faster and found her on a stone that was hidden by the trees. Aurora had her head between her knees, crying.

Kai walk up to her and sat quietly beside her. Aurora turns around and look at him with eyes full of pain and sorrow, she had sensed him. Then something unexpected happened, Kai took her in his arms. For the first time in many years she cried her heart out, Kai just held her and hoped that the pain will go away for while. 'Aurora…' Kai felt a warm feeling in his heart like a roaring flame.

In another dimension

Six bit beasts was watching in a big globe that showed them Kai and Aurora. Every one of them was sad.

One of them sighs. "I wish this battle was over."

Another one nod. "Yeah, we never thought this was going to happen."

"I thought that the damn door had disappear!" One of them shouts angrily.

"Calm down, Dragoon." A feminine voice says. "It doesn't help us if you get angry."

Dragoon sighs. "I know that Dranzer, but because that happen about thousand years ago, they have to pay the price."

"We all knew this was going to happen near the future, but we never imaged that it was going to be them." Another one says wisely.

Dragoon scoffed. "Easy for you to say Driger."

"Please Dragoon don't start a fight again." Another says sighs. "Last time you started a fight you almost destroyed the room."

Dragoon blushed. "Shut up, Draciel."

Dranzer sighs and look at Nox and Dieel, who was silent, all this time. "Do any of you know what is going to happen to them?"

Nox sighs. "Even if we do we can't tell you anything."

"Why not?" Dragoon demand to know.

"We met him!" Dieel said them quietly. Dranzer, Dragoon, Driger and Draciel both looked shocked.

"How… When…" Dragoon stammer in shock.

Nox sighs heavily again. "Do you remember the strange guy we meet in the cave?" He asks Dranzer and Draciel. They both nods and their eyes widen in understanding.

"You mean that the stranger was him?!" Dranzer exclaims in shock.

"But why didn't we recognize him?!" Draciel asks Dieel and Nox.

"You know that we can recognize his aura easily thought he is very good to hide it." Dieel explain. "We almost didn't feel his aura at all."

"Hmm I wonder what he's planning to do?" Driger asked out loud, they others nods.

"I agree with you there." Nox said in agreement.

"But why did he take the risk?" Dranzer asks softly and look at the globe again. All of them could see that Aurora had calmed down and Kai was whisper something to her.

Driger sighs. "Yes that is a really good question. If he isn't careful he is going to lose someone important again and I don't know if he is going to handle it this time if he do."

They others look at each other. "I just hope that isn't going to be like the last war." Dragoon says sadly.

Everyone became sad over the thought. Dranzer were silent and then sighs sadly. "I'm afraid that the war already has begun, but instead it isn't like the war for thousand years ago. Let us hope that no one is going to lose their life in this war."

Near the place Ray and the others are still sitting.

Two cloaked people were watching them in silent. "Is this really the right thing to do?" A feminine voice asked the other person.

The other one sigh. "We have to do it, but we have to wait till they aren't near the ruins. If we are going to get what we want we have to get Snow and you know that Mark and Susan failed."

"Then we must wait till Snow and the phoenix is coming, though I don't think this battle is going to be easy." The feminine voice says. The other one was looking at the group.

"You right this isn't going to be easy."

Me: Hmm it looks like I made two cliffhangers in this chapter.

Tyson: Your evil.

Me: Thank you.

Hilary: Aurora do you know what is going to happen?

Aurora: Honestly I don't know.

Me: You all have to wait for the next chapter to find out what is going to happen.

Everyone: You are evil.

Me: Thank you! 5 review before I have out the next chapter and I mean it too!
