Kai and BC stood in the lift. The lift travelled up and down inside the lighthouse. It also went underground where many of Kai's Border Captain rooms were hidden. ‘Underground level 3,' Kai said loudly.

The lift began to move.

When the lift reached the control room its doors opened. Kai and BC stepped into the room.

‘I need to start the computers with my new Captain Card,' Kai said. He reached into his pocket for his card.

Kai pushed the card into the slot. A beast loaded onto the screen.

‘I hope this isn't a mutant beast again,' said BC.

‘Couldn't be,' said Kai. ‘The BMC said the Outland gates were down for only a few seconds. Not enough time for more mutants to get out.'

When Kai saw the whole beast he knew he was wrong. ‘That thing's a mix of three beasts I think.' Then he saw the words Chillterratan Mutant. ‘At least it isn't a mega-mutant, BC. It's in the ice land.'

‘We haven't battled this beast before,' said BC.

‘No,' said Kai. He looked up the beast on his BMC captain's watch. ‘It has less rock beast in it but that will change if it becomes a mega-mutant.'

‘Another beast is loading on screen two,' said BC.

‘Not two beasts to battle again!' said Kai.

Three heads moved onto the screen.

‘I don't need to see any more, BC,' Kai said. ‘I'd know those three heads anywhere. It's the mutant Terraserpix that we battled in the rock land.'

The beast finished loading. Then BC said, ‘And it's in Isolus, too. Double trouble.'

‘Yes, we need to build a team and go to the ice land,' said Kai. ‘Before these two mutants find each other.'

Two mutants were loose in the ice land. Kai knew what he had to do.

‘I'll check the battle files to see who battled Chillterratan,' 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.

‘This guard lives in a castle!' Kai said.

‘Our lighthouse is way better than a castle,' said BC twitching his nose.

Kai smiled then clicked on the name. Will Ritter's battle file came onto the screen.

‘He's battled the beast,' said Kai. ‘I'll send him a text message.'

‘To meet us in the ice land,' said BC.

‘Yes,' said Kai as he sent the message to Will on his orb. ‘Now, let's go get our gear, BC.'

Kai walked over to the doors at the back of the room. The doors slowly opened.

 

 

‘We'll do our ride first,' Kai said. He walked over to the touch screen. ‘We need something that can fly and go on icy land,' said Kai.

Kai flicked through the rides and stopped at something new. ‘This looks awesome,' he said. ‘It zooms along the ice and can fly like a jet.'

‘And it has a seat for me up top!' said BC.

‘That is a good battling spot for you, BC!' said Kai. ‘We'll take this ride.'

Kai hit the button for the Jet-Luge 500. Then he went to look at the battle gear on the walls.

 

 

‘Is it the BMC again?' asked BC.

‘No,' said Kai as he looked at his orb. ‘It's a text message from Will. He's leaving for the ice land in the Ice Jet.'

‘What gadget is he bringing?' asked BC.

‘The Net Shooter,' said Kai. ‘That's good. But we need to hurry. Let's grab our gear and go.'

‘Will we take the Super-Zap-6?' asked BC looking at the ray shooter.

‘Not for the ice land,' said Kai. ‘Look! The X-Foam Archer's had an upgrade. It shoots fire now as well as rocks, dirt and arrows. I'm taking it.'

Kai took the X-Foam Archer 2 from the wall. Then he and BC headed for the lift.

 

‘To the transport chamber,' Kai said once he and BC were safely in the lift.

The lift moved quickly to the floor above then stopped. ‘There's our ride,' Kai said as he picked BC up. ‘I'll strap you in your seat. It's high up.'

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.
