Hi. Here. I thought this story needed a change. Well let's face it, it was crap before (and still is probably still crap). I haven't have changed the story line, I just updated it a bit. Enjoy.

Disclaimer: I do not own beyblade.

"Blah" – talking

'Blah' – thinking

Change of place/time

Chapter 1: The Beginning

Kai got up as usual, at 6:00, as he does everyday, even on the weekends. He got out of bed and had a shower, then got dressed. Kai had a lot of things to think about, Mariah kept on asking the same question, 'Will you tell me your secret? Will you tell me your secret?' All of which was Ray's fault, as he had let it slip once. But Kai as always would refuse. He just didn't like talking about it. It brought back to many bad memories.

He walked into the Dojo where he met Max, Ray and Tyson, who had just woken up.

"Tyson, will you hurry up and get dressed, we're gonna be late for school." Said Ray, all Max could do was giggle.

"Morning Kai." Said Max, Kai just nodded his head to show that he heard. Ray turned when he heard Max say this. "Oh, morning Kai, I'm just having a little trouble with Tyson.

When Tyson had finally got dressed, they all got quickly got of the Dojo and made their way to school.

When they had got up to their form room Mariah walked up to them and warmly greeted them, and then looked at Kai before going back to the rest of The White Tigers.

Kai's first lesson was English then Science, both equally boring in their own way. Then at break Mariah, caught Kai all on his own in the Quad, Mariah sneaked up to him and tapped him on the shoulder. "Kai I was wondering, since we're all alone-" "No, I'm not going to tell you, but I will someday, just not right now okay?" Said Kai

Mariah then nodded to show that she understood. "Mariah I will te-", then just as Kai was about to even maybe tell Mariah his secret Ray came and asked, "Hey Mariah, Kai I was just looking for you Mariah." Mariah looked at Kai hoping that he would say something. Kai just looked at her and got up and went in another direction. Mariah got up and followed Ray.

Ray asked "Why were you with Kai anyway?" Mariah said "Oh you know I've been asking him about his secret, I asked him again because we were alone, and I was hoping he would tell me". "Oh" said Ray. Ray looked at Mariah and said,

"Well…. I know you're not gonna like what I have to say next," "Why, what's wrong Ray," "Well Tyson, Max, Kenny and myself all know Kai's secret." "Oh, well, will you tell me please?" "We promised Kai we wouldn't tell anyone, but I'm sure he'll tell you someday." Ray said hopefully that Mariah would not be to upset.

"Oh, okay. But why did you want me?" asked Mariah. "Oh yeah. Tyson wanted to speak to you, and so did Lee." Said Ray. "Bout what?" asked Mariah. Ray just shrugged. "Okay then, where are they?" "In the form room." Mariah nodded and headed in that direction.

Kai's POV

I really want to tell her, but I just can't bring myself to tell her. I think about it and all these bad memories come flooding back. Why can't I just ask one of the guys to tell her, but then that means I would have to tell the rest of the White Tigers as well. What am I gonna do?

End Kai's POV

Kai was lost in his train of thought and bumped into his English teacher. Mr. Tanimoto.

"Oh sorry Sir, I wasn't concentrating." Said Kai as he picked up his books. "No, that's okay Kai. But are you okay? Is there anything bothering you?" asked Mr. Tanimoto. "No, nothing Sir." Said Kai as he went in the direction of his next class. Mr. Tanimoto just shook his head, as he knew there was something wrong with him.

In his next lesson, which was double maths, Kai was just staring out of the window, tapping his pencil on his book.

"Mr Hiwatari, now I want you to answer the next question. What is 12 squared times 24 cubed?" said Mr. Fujii their short annoying maths teacher. Kai of course wasn't listening.

Ray saw this and elbowed Kai in the ribs, "Say 1990656."

"Why?" asked Kai rubbing his ribs." "Just say it."

Kai quickly said the answer, and Mr. Fujii's reply was, "Correct but next time don't take so long."

"Thanks Ray, but did you have to hit me so hard?" asked Kai. "Sorry." Whispered Ray. "Mr Hiwatari, Mr Kon will you please stop talking." Shouted Mr. Fujii. Kai and Ray abruptly stopped talking and looked at the board.

After the lesson it was lunch. Both teams headed towards the canteen except for Kai who went to library.

In the canteen

"Hi, where's Kai?" asked Mariah. "He went to the library, he said he didn't feel much like eating." Answered Ray. "He didn't have any breakfast either." Said Tyson. Mariah nodded. She quickly finished her lunch and went to the library.

She saw Kai who was reading in the corner. "Hey Kai." Said Mariah. Kai looked up from his book "Hi." "Don't you feel well?" asked Mariah. "Why?" asked Kai. "Because you didn't have any breakfast or lunch." Replied Mariah. "Oh, no I just don't really feel like eating today. "Well you gotta have something to eat." "I probably will when I get home." Said Kai as Mariah smiled.

Half and hour later.

The bell rung signalling the end of lunch. Kai and Mariah quickly went to their lessons.

Well I hope you enjoyed it.
