nothing at all, the ceiling remained closed. Startled, he walked towards the 60 heartbeats and he felt the uncomfortable pressure in his lungs. He has to take a quick breath before he really drowned miserably here. He thought feverishly, if his blade couldn't even break through the ceiling, what then?"Morse code, that's all I can do now," he thought and swam back to the ceiling and pounded on it. Boris laughed and listened to the sound. "4 minutes, the boy is damn good" The Demolition Boys stared in horror at the closed ceiling, they couldn't help him, they weren't allowed, he had to get out of there all by himself. Suddenly Tala recognized a rhythm in the drums, he listened more carefully and suddenly turned pale. "Let him out, Boris," he said carelessly, his face showing no signs of emotion, but a war was raging inside. "Why, he only needs to fill up the 5 minutes, then I'll open it voluntarily," said Boris spitefully and listened to the drumming sound. Kai couldn't anymore the burning urge to fill his lungs with air was stronger and he opened his mouth, the water immediately poured in, the unpleasant pressure on his eyes stopped when he let out the stale air. He fought doggedly against the dizziness that was slowly spreading in his head."75" he thought to himself when he closed his eyes. It was only vaguely that the covers opened again and someone jumped into the water. Then he was grabbed and pulled to the surface, coughing, he clung to the edge of the pool and spat out the swallowed water. He gasped again and had another coughing fit. Spencer patted him gently on the back and waited until he had pumped all the water out of his lungs. Then he pulled himself from the edge of the pool and gave Kai his hand. The gray-haired Blader gratefully gripped her and let himself be pulled out of the water. "Very good, I'm speechless," chirped Boris. "Keep your false praise for yourself, I can do without something like that", Kai hissed angrily and stumbled up again. The clear air revived him and he shook water out of his hair for the second time. When Boris approached him again Kai jumped up into the air, turned a somersault and landed safely on his feet behind Boris, in a flash he turned around and pulled out his blade which he pointed at his trainer.He found the fact that Kai had gained the upper hand not very funny but he didn't let it be noticed. “Never point the gun at one of my employees again!” Voltaire barked from behind. Kai winced inwardly when he heard the voice, slowly he lowered the blade but his eyes were full of anger and contempt. He hated this person and he also hated his grandfather, those who kept trying to separate him from her. But they would not succeed, he would fight for his freedom again as he had done before. Suddenly his thoughts paused: 'Why AGAIN?


"Riku, hurry up or we'll lose sight of cricket," urged Gary and turned to the girl.Riku stood on top of the snowy cliff and looked sadly down at the abbey then she felt his strength grow and grow stronger, how his fire began to blaze. She giggled softly, his fire had been on for a few days, on the back burner but now it was growing again. She raised a hand and spoke softly: "Rea". Immediately snowflakes played around and flew to the abbey. "I'm coming, Gary," she called to the waiting boy and ran up the slope. "Let's go," she said softly and turned back to the abbey. > I trust you, show them who you are <. Together with Gary she set out to catch up with the others. "Where have you two been so long?" Lee asked when he had his eye on his team member again. "I wanted to see again if nobody was following us," said Riku and looked Lee in the eye. Lee raised an eyebrow and looked at Riku thoughtfully. "How is Tyson?" Said Riku. "Oh, besides the fact that cricket doesn't care much about how he's shaken, he's fine," replied Michael, pointing to the horse that had just jumped over a tree trunk and Tyson was thrown roughly against his neck.Riku couldn't help but laugh. "Cricket is not used to having a beginner on his back". Then the stallion suddenly threw Tyson off and stood across the path. His ears twitched forward nervously and he grumbled restlessly. "Something's wrong there," said Lee and already ran forward. The others also ran up to the nervous animal that was beating its tail in alarm. "Oh no, what are they up to?" Max asked when he saw the Demolition Boys walking down the pass below them, followed by Boris on the snowmobile. "Team attack!" Yelled the trainer. The five boys immediately obeyed. In a triangular formation, they all pushed each other powerfully off the ground, holding their hands crossed in front of their chests. "Destroy our enemy. Only victory is our life". Their battle cry rang out uniformly when they suddenly clasped their hands to the side as if they had wings. The black aura enveloped Kai who was at the head of the team and Black Drancer appeared behind him.Tala was surrounded by a white, Bryan by a purple light while Wolborg and Falkborg appeared behind their coaches and Spencer appeared from a yellow, Ian from a green as well as Seaborg and Vyborg. "Demolition Boys" called out the 5 and united their Bit Beast with Black Drancer. The 4 Bit Beast danced around Kai as he held his blade over his head. "Brocken Wing Attack," he said and started his blade. A gigantic beam of light shot out of the blade and devastated the area. With an effort, all 5 landed back on the floor and remained in their kneeling position. Only Kai raised his hand to catch his blade again. After that, the Bit Beasts disappeared again with their actual owners. Shocked by the uniformity of movements and the extent of the attack, the Blader stared at the Demolition Boys. Nobody dared to utter a single sound, for fear they might be discovered and that could not be ruled out with these fighting machines."Very nice, the attack is already working fine. Next time I want to see the full power of the Bit Beast in this attack and you will work on your precision!" Echoed Boris. "Yes," replied the 5 at the same time. Then they made their way back. Kai brought up the rear, as is so often the case, as if by inspiration he looked up and discovered Riku. His eyes flickered red for a moment, but no one except Riku could see the slight flicker, she nodded suggestively and stared at the young Blader in horror. Then Kai turned back to his team and followed Boris. "We have to keep going, we have to be quiet," she whispered to the others and knocked Cricket lightly on the flank. "Show us the quickest way, we have to get to the castle," she said and sent the horse forward. They had to get back as soon as possible to warn the others. She knew what Voltaire was up to and she knew that Kai would try to delay it as much as possible."Why are you in such a hurry now?" Asked Tyson who was soon at the end of his tether. "We have to hurry, if I understand Kai correctly, Voltaire wants to wipe out everyone who helped Kai hide from him and right now they're all sitting with Mr. Okinawa in the castle. Mr. Dickenson has called a conference and everyone will be there tomorrow be ", said Riku. "How do you know all this?" Lee asked, grabbing her shoulders. "I am not allowed to tell you, please trust me. You will see it soon enough," replied Riku, brokenly. The others had to be content with that, because Riku didn't speak any more. The black-haired angel set off again, while her thoughts revolved only around her warrior who is stoking his fire, ready for the great fight. And she too began to stir up hers, but she stirred up the opposite. SHE couldn't possibly stop him, because she was at a disadvantage because of her element. But it would also be the end of it.She followed the stallion resolutely, long since she no longer paid any attention to the group that followed her. They had to make the preparations as soon as possible and before it was too late. It took a long time until the bladers finally saw the lock, totally exhausted and pumped out. The lights were still on and a lot of cars were parked in front of it. "How did you know?" Lee asked again but got no answer. Instead, the angel started running now, she had to be alone for a brief moment. Cricket noticed that something was wrong with the girl and trotted beside her and grumbled invitingly. Riku looked at the stallion and then nodded gratefully. She grabbed the mane and, while still running, swung herself onto the animal's back and urged it on. She had to do something before the others saw it.

"Hey that's not fair now," Mariah nagged and sank into the snow and Emily wasn't enthusiastic either, she wasn't used to walking that long. "Come on, don't
