Ten Years by Himako-hime
Hi, minna! I know that I'm crazy to be starting this fic when I already have a newly-published fic going on. Yeah well, I felt that I just have to write this, so here I am. This is a yaoi fic. Gosh if Aida sees this she's never ever gonna let me hear the end of it, and Aiko too. Well, anyway it's a Beyblade fic, and yes it's Kai/Rei. So, um I guess that's supposed to be an warning.
Disclaimers: I do not own Beyblade, I'm not really clear about who does, it is a new anime after all. I do not own the kawaii bishies Kai and Rei, such a shame!
Warning: It's not a hentai and has no lemon, but it is yaoi/shounen-ai. So consider yourself warned.
Summary: Slightly A/U. After Mariah, Lee, Kevin, Kenny, Emily and Michael's death, Rei sets off to avenge all of his friends. But first he has to win his former captain, and the reason of world domination's trust. Can he stay focused on his mission? Kai/Rei pairing

by Himako-hime/Aiwa
Prologue
***Flash Back***
"I promise, we'll be friends no matter what happens." A thirteen-years-old Rei was talking to his childhood crush: Mariah, the pink-haired neko-jin.
"The beginning of a beautiful friendship!" Rei was saying.
"Mariah, no. No, don't go! Mariah!!!!!!!" Rei was waking up from a dream, shaking like a leaf in a storm.
"Well, I guess this is good-bye then." Rei hugged his pink-haired friend good-bye, trying not to sound too awkward.
"Tyson! Tyson, Tyson look! She wrote to me! Mariah wrote to me!" An ultra-happy Rei was dancing around the bedroom that all of the Bladebreakers shared screaming at the top of his lungs and waving a small piece of paper that's assumed to be Mariah's letter at 6:30 in the morning. Everyone except Kenny was woken up by the commotion.
"Argh. Put a sock in in, Rei." Grumbled Kai, usually the earliest to rise but who is still human and needs his sleep.
"Sorry man, but I'm afraid that for once I'm gonna have to agree with Mr. Sourpuss. It's wayyyyy to early to be up no matter who wrote." Tyson said, his eyelids drooping and falling asleep again almost instantly.
"Awww. That was a good dream too. Really Rei, do you like Mariah or something?" Max whined trying to get back to his sleep and a delicious dream full of pastries just for him, not noticing how Kai stiffened when he mentioned the White Tiger's not-so-vague crush.
"But guys, don't you wanna know what Mariah wrote about?" Complained a disappointed Rei.
"Sure we do Rei, just not so early in the morning. Don't wanna be spoiling my apetite now." Mumbled Tyson from his dream-like state. The White Tiger narrowed his golden eyes but kept quiet for he knew that once Tyson was asleep, almost nothing could wake him up. From the corner of his eye Rei saw his captain getting up silently.
"Hey Kai!" Rei called when Kai was almost out of the room. Where in the world could the former-world champion be going this early in the morning?
"What do you want?" Kai grunted, still very grumpy.
"Where are you going?" Rei asked, good-naturedly.
"None of your business. But if you must know, I'm going to train." Kai replied.
"But it's only 6!" Rei exclaimed.
"You're up aren't you?" Kai said sarcastically and left the room without looking back.
"Mariah! Lee!" Rei greeted. He was very surprised by the presence of the White Tigers and All Starz at the world tournament.
"Rei!" Mariah giggled and flew up to hug him.
"Hey, good to see you too." Rei laughed along, momentarily forgetting his captain's absence from the team.
"Hey, looks like everyone's here." Lee smiled and acknowledged Rei in a friendly manner.
"Hey, wait a minute. Kai isn't here, what happened?" Emily asked taking a break of her childish and immature staring contest with the pink-haired neko-jin.
"Hey don't ask us. Mr. Sourpuss obviously doesn't care if anybody's going to be worried to death about him." Tyson answered sarcastically and nudging Rei in the ribs. Everyone turned to stare at the boy who owned the white tiger bit.
"What!?" Rei exclaimed, instantly getting defensive.
"Nothing. Nothing at all Rei." Max winked at him. Now Rei was confused beyond hell, why the heck was Max and Tyson giving him signs every two seconds, it's not like he liked Kai personnally or anything, he was just worried.
"And give it up for the Demolition Boy's surprise blader, Kai Hiwatari!...what? Yes it says Kai's name. Man this is one heck of a surprise, A.J.! Welcome the newest addition to the Russian team, none other than the captain from the Bladebreakers! Kai!" Brad was saying.
Rei stood frozen in shock. All these days when he had worried to death about Kai's safety, Kai was actually busy joining some other team? How dare he! Well, now Rei knew what it felt like to be betrayed. he can't say that he blames Lee for his earlier actions. Kai stood on the other side of the rink in all his glory, but Rei could sense that something was different about him. It was as if this was a different person! There was something evil about the new Kai's confident strides, how his eyes glowed wickedly at the opposing team: the All Starz. Then, Kai laughed. A horrible laugh full of evilness to it, not the beautiful and ethereal sound that Rei imagined and longed to hear.
It was almost too easy! Kai defeated the All Starz singlehandedly and without even breaking a sweat! Rei's heart suddenly stopped, Kai was...he was taking the bit-beasts from the other team! The White Tiger watched as Kai took the bit-beasts, one by one in slow motion, he could feel tears stinging his eyes as one by one the All Starz fell painfully on to the ground. He knew what it felt like, he'd lost Drigger before, and he hated Kai for doing this to anybody on purpose.
The silence was deafening as the crowd of some thousands all stood shocked and at loss of words. Then, that horrible laugh. Rei cringed, as the evil Kai laughed, crazily, like there was no tomorrow. It sounded almost like crying. Rei wondered what had happened to Kai that made him act like this. He couldn't hold back his tears anymore, they fell on the floor, pit-pat, pit-pat... but nobody took notice. The entire stadium was filled with that horrible laugh. Rei felt like screaming, for the lost soul of the phoenix-holder, for the owners of the lost ancient spirits, and, for himself. The neko-jin vaguely heard someone screaming as he fell onto his knees, tears streaming down his face like rivers, then he realized that the screaming voice belonged to him...and all went blank...
***End Flash Back***
Rei's POV
I woke up screaming, again. This nightmare is particularly fresh in my mind, proabably because I've had it almost everyday for ten years. Yes, it's been ten years since then. No longer the innocent and naive little boy I used to be, no longer living the carefree life of a beyblader. All this is because of HIM. Him, Kai Hiwatari. I can't honestly say that I hate him, because I don't. I know that sounds strange, but I don't blame Kai for any of this. It wasn't him, it was somebody else, the person who changed him into this horrid and evil creature.
If you asked me what I thought about Kai two months ago, I would have said that I'd gladly kill him, roast him alive, torture him slowly, make him pay for all those things that he's done in these ten years. So why the sudden change of heart you ask? I guess it's because I've gotten to know him again during these two months, and I think...fell in love. Wouldn't Lee curse me to hell if he heard me just now. But he can't, because he's already in hell, most likely. Yes that's right, Lee is dead, and so is Mariah, Kevin, the chief, Emily and Michael; and yes, they were all killed by HIM, personally.
After the world tournament, or some of it anyways, Biovolt (AN: I have no idea what it's called in the Japanese version, so bear with me) decided to put their action to plan earlier than originally thought. The White Tigers, All Starz, Majestics and just about every other team that there is, were all robbed of their bit-beasts. But our team was spared...for the moment anyways, I guess Kai wanted to leave the best for the last. He hunted each one of us down, one by one and took our bit-beasts, that is, everyone except me. I'm proabably one of the two people who still own bit-beasts in the world, and of course the other is him. Kai.
Two months ago, after I had heard of Lee and Mariah's deaths, I couldn't just stand by and watch anymore. I wanted to make Kai pay. I thought that it'd proabably just stay a dream for I did not believe that I could succeed. Now, the chances are pretty good, if I had the heart to do it. I'm not a weak-willed person, no; but even I could not fight love. I guess I was doomed to this fate from the first day I met him. Sometimes I think to myself that I'm so pitiful, if it was Lee, Michael, Emily, or even Mariah, they could and would do it, but I can not.

Tell me what you think. I'm already starting on chapter one, but it will proabably take me a few days 'cause it's getting busier at school. I'd love feedback! Please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please tell me what you think!!!!!
I know I'm being annoying, so I won't say anymore, but please review!!
