Locks like this were nothing new to him. Then, however, they entered a corridor that also drew Kai's attention. The walls that lined the corridor were decorated with pictures, but they were covered with large cloths. The name tags were still recognizable, but only Kai could read them because they were written in Cyrillic letters.

"I would like to know what it says ..." Kai heard Mrs. Tate mutter when she stopped in front of a blackboard.“It says 'Mariah and Galux - Team White Tigers'. These are pictures of the world's best Bey Bladers that are on display here.” “You can read this scribble?” Tyson asked in surprise. Kai rolled his eyes. "It's not a scribble, it's Cyrillic letters! They are commonly used in Russia" "And you can read that?" asked Eddy. "No, of course not, I always think up some fantasy stories", Kai snapped annoyed and then went on. "Oh man he's in a mood," said Eddy, startled. "Probably slept badly," said Kenny, hiding the incident with the injured Bit Beast. "Probably not at all," said Ray and looked after him thoughtfully. Kai had been very distant since they arrived in Russia. Mr. Dickenson noticed that Kai was not comfortable here and went after him. "What's going on boy? You look like 7 days of rain". Kai glanced briefly at him but then turned back to the ground."Listen, I know that it is not easy to have to return to the country that you hate with all your heart. But you should tell them, then they would not ask such questions anymore and would leave you alone. What do you mean "They can find out a small part, you confided in me at the time, please try again," said Mr. Dickenson quietly so that only the person addressed could hear something of it. But the slight shake of the head from Kai promised the friendly man that he wasn't ready to trust his team. "Cheer up," he said and went back to Mrs. Tate. Once in the dormitories, the butler gave each team their own room and Mr. Dickenson and Mrs. Tate got their own chambers. "Wow, this is totally cool," Tyson said, slumping onto the bed. "Hey Kai, why are you so good at Russian and can you read their writing too? Where did you learn that?", Kenny asked and looked inquiringly into the face of his captain.Kai went to the window and looked outside, the rain clouds that formed in the sky didn't bode well, just like that night. Then he gave himself a jerk and began to tell: "I was born in Russia and grew up too. So finally satisfied?" He asked coldly. Tyson and the others looked a little shocked. "You don't like being here, am I right?" Asked Max and looked at him. Kai just shook his head then said: "We have to go downstairs, the food will definitely be served". Then he went out of the room. He had already told them too much, under no circumstances were they allowed to know more. His team strode after him thoughtfully. They didn't know what to think of it, Kai had never said anything about himself and now? Kenny became curious, he really wanted to know more but he held back, Kai would tell more of his own accord and he couldn't be pressured that they had already found out, because that way you couldn't get anything out of him.So he decided to talk to Mr. Dickenson. They were just before the dining room when two children rushed towards them, a boy maybe 9 years and a girl 5 years came running towards the quay. "KAIIII," the boy called happily, jumping up on the blader. "Oops, take it easy with the young horses," said Kai and gently loosened the boy's grip. Then the boy babbled quickly and without a line in Russian with Kai. He briefly covered the boy's mouth and spoke a serious word with him. The Withe Tigers and the All Starz who just came out of their rooms watch the spectacle. It looked very funny how the iron warrior stood in front of the little child and talked to him. Then he let go of the boy and then points in the direction of the dining room. Laughing happily, the boy danced around him and then grabbed Drancer, who was strapped to his belt, and disappeared around the corner. Kai looked amazed after the child but then shook his head slightly and gave a strange whistle.Instantly a similar scream rang out and Drancer whirled around the bend and shot towards Kai. This caught his blade skillfully and let it disappear in his pocket. "Hey, that sounded like a buzzard! How did you teach your Bit Beast to listen to signals like this?" Emily asked, amazed. Kai didn't answer, but went silently into the dining room. "Then not," she said angrily and put her hands on her hips. Then they also went into the room and got huge eyes. In front of them was a 10 meter long buffet table "Wooooow! Der Oberhammer!" shouted Tyson and his eyes took on a strange glow.

"I now ask the young people to help themselves to their heart's content!" said one of the servants of the lord of the castle who was standing at the table. "Say thank you again to the lord of the castle for the friendly invitation on behalf of the White Tiger team," said Lee. "Also on behalf of All Starz, I would like to ask you to express our thanks to the lord of the castle.When will we get to know our patron? "Judy wanted to know." Tomorrow, Miss Tate, "replied the butler, glancing in Kai's direction. The boy narrowed his eyes." On behalf of the Blade Breakers, I thank you for that this invitation, "he said finally." Enough chat, ran into the bacon, "Tyson called, rubbing his stomach. He sprinted off and was about to start ransacking the food when he was turned around by a hard jerk on his shoulder, startled he looked into two dangerously flashing fawn eyes. "I only warn you once Tyson so listen carefully! You're not at home here, but in the castle of a Russian landlord, right? And then you have to behave a little bit differently! You're embarrassing our whole team, if you haven't noticed! And if you don't suddenly improve your manners, I'll throw you into the moat with my own hands! Did I make myself clear and precise?"Tyson swallowed dryly and tried not to look directly into Kai's piercing look." Yes, you ... "" Fine! Then you will take a plate like everyone else and sit down over there to eat! "" Yes Kai ... "Kai let go of the intimidated boy again and handed Tyson a plate, who stood there like a doused poodle and looked around briefly." Still as quick-tempered as before, "suddenly another voice laughed Room. Kai scowled in the direction from which the voice was coming, but when he recognized the person, his expression brightened suddenly. "Rather seldom. Only if someone like him really gets in my way, Lew, but only then, "replied the person addressed after a brief hesitation." You know Kai? ", the Withe Tigers and the All Starz asked as if from one mouth. Lew winced immediately when he heard the 8 Bladers." Oh, I'm sorry Kai, I didn't know that ..... "" It's okay, they had figured it out as well ", Kai reassured the servant.This nodded. "Kai used to live near him and was often our guest when his grandfather had to travel," answered Lew. "But that is not important, we are here to train and to resurrect any past day," said Kai and none of those present were spared the undertone in his voice. They all noticed that he wasn’t going to say anything more about his childhood so they all started to work on the buffet. The group remained in silence for an hour and only the clink of cutlery could be heard. "I have to say that Russian cuisine is very tasty, although sometimes I have trouble defining it. But this turkey is delicious," said Tyson appreciatively. Suddenly they heard cutlery falling on the plate and everyone turned in the direction from which the noise came and they discovered: Kai who had put his hand over his mouth and his shoulders trembled as if he was laughing, but no sound came over his lips.Then he recovered and looked at Tyson. "Your turkey ..... is an iguana". Tyson and the others looked at the Blader, who had his usual expression again, but his eyes sparkled with amusement. "That's a joke, isn't it?" Tyson asked a little meekly, but the captain's head shake assured him it was his. He grimaced in disgust and put the meat to one side again. The others still looked at Kai in surprise, they weren't used to such an outburst of emotions and it still amazed them very much. > What's the matter with me? Why do I get the feeling that I could trust you with everything without betraying me? But it doesn't work !! You would be in danger ... But why did I even care? Why am I so worried about her?


"Come on you coward", called the black-haired girl with the red streak on her face, she was maybe 5 years old. "Wait a minute," the boy called and rushed after the girl, then he pushed himself off the floor with force and grabbed the girl by her shoulder and pulled her to the floor. There they rolled around in the snow and he pressed a load of snow into her face. "Nailed down," he said as the girl laughed and pleaded for forgiveness. He let her get up, but immediately realized that this was a mistake. In the next moment he was thrown on the ground with his back first and got the full broadside of the snow. "So who has won now? Say it already Kai," joked the girl and rubbed more and more snow on his face."You won, I'll take everything back too," said the boy. They both laughed brightly. "Friends forever?" Asked the girl, holding out her little finger. "Sure," he answered her and hacked into her. "A promise is a promise and will not be broken. But if it is broken you have to cook in the
