"Come on Kai! We could have fun today!" The grating voice that was right next to her ear made her eye twitch just a hint. Purple eyes moved from straight ahead to slowly settle on the grinning boy next to her. It was a rather slow movement, just screaming of her irritation. Beaming midnight blue eyes begging her with the adoration of a mangy puppy, Takao was set on annoying her from the get go today.
"Training is fun." The female answered simply, inwardly enjoying the way his face fell and she could feel the small smirk from Rei, almost amused at her bland statement. Takao whined loudly, his arms flailing around like a small imitation of a dying chicken- as he gave her reasons of this and that weren't fun. If her hand wasn't clutching her side discreetly, Kai would have pinched the bridge of her nose and sigh silently at her teammate's whining.
"You just dislike it because it requires effort, Kinomiya." Takao rolled his eyes and she was sure there was a long 'well duh' mentally in his empty skull. "Come onnnnn! We never have any fun! We just trainnnn." The last notes were drawn out with the proficiency of a five year old in the middle of a tantrum. The urge to punch his teammate in the stomach was excruciatingly high. Dark blue hair spilled over her shoulder as she looked over to Takao with a blank look.
"Kinomiya. If you want to win the next championship, you have to practice. Sheer luck will not gain you a win every time." Finding himself fighting a no winning argument he huffed- looking to Max for help- but Max avoided his glance, a grin on his face. Kai wasn't sure which one was more annoying at the moment, Rei's all knowing stare, Max's giggling, or Tyson acting like an inebriated valley girl.
However each moment that went on- Kai's side hurt worse and worse, and it was really starting to make her more irritable- than normal, since her being irritated tended to happen when she was around Kinomiya. The fight she had gotten into with some street thugs after accidently stepping on her turf led her to victory- but a god forsaken bleeding wound on her side. She forgot if it was the crowbar that nailed her or someone's brass knuckles- because she had bruises from both of those. The team leader could have skipped coming today to the Kinomiya dojo- but she had a feeling that would cause more trouble than it was worth. Probably because of Takao Kinomiya himself.
As they made their way to the dojo, ignoring Takao's and Max's conversation about lunch later completely- she tried not to show the wince each step caused her- and how she just wanted to sit down and not move. She knew the wound wasn't infected- she had went through enough burning of peroxide to know that- and the bandages on her side held any discharge or blood- but still it hurt. Kai was not one to ask for help- or even tell her teammates about things like this- so she never mentioned that she had a four inch gash in her side that she couldn't exactly remember what goon dealt it with what weapon. Dranzer did nothing but try to soothe her with those wings of fire- but that was not helping the gathering pain.
She would hide the evidence before the thought of asking for help even crossed her mind. The blood, the bandages, she would set them on fire if she had to change them here- easily hiding her wound with more proficiency than the average person. They had to win the next beyblading tournament- so help her she would fight that bright spirited-blue eyed dragon-idiot named Takao Kinomiya if it was the last thing she did! Dranzer only chuckled at the thought- knowing what her master really felt- and left the child to rant internally about the great fight she'll win- because really, in her mind, Kai needed to be a bit more of a child sometimes.
I haven't written these things in forever. Forgive me. I really like Fem!Kai, and for a time I rped her for like two or three years. However the rest of the team I'm about as fresh behind the ears with as ever. So I do apologize if their characterizations is off. Don't kill me.
