find each other.â
Two mutants were loose in the ice land. Kai knew what he had to do.
âIâll check the battle files to see who battled Chillterratan,â Kai said. He hit the Border Guard Battle Files button.
A list of names came onto the screen. Kai waited. Then one name started flashing.
âThis guard lives in a castle!â Kai said.
âOur lighthouse is way better than a castle,â said BC twitching his nose.
Kai smiled then clicked on the name. Will Ritterâs battle file came onto the screen.
âHeâs battled the beast,â said Kai. âIâll send him a text message.â
âTo meet us in the ice land,â said BC.
âYes,â said Kai as he sent the message to Will on his orb. âNow, letâs go get our gear, BC.â
Kai walked over to the doors at the back of the room. The doors slowly opened.
Â
Â
âWeâll do our ride first,â Kai said. He walked over to the touch screen. âWe need something that can fly and go on icy land,â said Kai.
Kai flicked through the rides and stopped at something new. âThis looks awesome,â he said. âIt zooms along the ice and can fly like a jet.â
âAnd it has a seat for me up top!â said BC.
âThat is a good battling spot for you, BC!â said Kai. âWeâll take this ride.â
Kai hit the button for the Jet-Luge 500. Then he went to look at the battle gear on the walls.
Â
Â
âIs it the BMC again?â asked BC.
âNo,â said Kai as he looked at his orb. âItâs a text message from Will. Heâs leaving for the ice land in the Ice Jet.â
âWhat gadget is he bringing?â asked BC.
âThe Net Shooter,â said Kai. âThatâs good. But we need to hurry. Letâs grab our gear and go.â
âWill we take the Super-Zap-6?â asked BC looking at the ray shooter.
âNot for the ice land,â said Kai. âLook! The X-Foam Archerâs had an upgrade. It shoots fire now as well as rocks, dirt and arrows. Iâm taking it.â
Kai took the X-Foam Archer 2 from the wall. Then he and BC headed for the lift.
Â
âTo the transport chamber,â Kai said once he and BC were safely in the lift.
The lift moved quickly to the floor above then stopped. âThereâs our ride,â Kai said as he picked BC up. âIâll strap you in your seat. Itâs high up.â
Kai also strapped himself in then took out his orb. He keyed in the codes for the ice land.
The chamber doors opened and the Jet-Luge 500 shot out from the tunnel to Beastium.
Kai and BC flew into a heavy storm. âIâve never seen anything like this in the ice land,â Kai said into his headset mouthpiece.
âItâs raining ice,â said BC. âWe are in the ice land but why is the storm so bad?â
âWeâre close to the wind land border,â said Kai.
âItâs hard to see,â said BC.
âIâve turned on your eye-windscreen wipers,â said Kai. âIâm flying further into the ice land now. The storm will be behind us soon.â
But the storm got worse. Ice shards came down hard on the Jet-Luge.
Then Kai heard a noise.
âHail stones,â said Kai as he tried to dodge them. âBut these ones are massive ice balls!â
âIâll get them with my eye lasers,â said BC. He opened fire and hit a huge ball headed for the cockpit.
Â
Â
The giant ice ball exploded into a pile of burning dirt.
âInside those ice balls is fire and dirt,â said Kai staring. âAnd the outside is thick, hard ice. They have to be coming from a mutant.â
âMutant pests,â said a voice through the cockpit speakers. âWill Ritter reporting in for battle.â
âWhere have you been?â asked Kai.
âI got caught in a freak storm,â said Will. âThe ice balls are coming from
