Chapter 1

The Velvet black sky was alight with diamonds in the sky and pale moon light danced on the golden fields of wheat. A town lay not far from the field. On one of the rooftops sat a 14 year-old boy. The boy had raven hair, which was tied back into a long ponytail in the back. A bandana, with a Ying-yang sign, held back his raven locks. A soft sigh escaped his lips. He held his knees to his chest with his arms around them.

He looked down when he heard footsteps. He saw a man with short onyx hair and matching eyes. He was walking with a slight wobble. His father was drunk…again. He looked down on his father, until he disappeared behind the door. He let out another sigh.

"Why me? " the boy thought as he crawled into his window and shut it. He flopped back on his bed and hid his golden eyes when he shut them.

"Rei! Get down here NOW!" Rei squeezed his eyes shut as the deep angry sound of his fathers' voice flew through the house. Rei let out a sigh as he stood up. He was about to open the door it swung open smacking him down on the ground. Blood fell off of his lip and he tasted it on his tongue. His gaze was met with two angry onyx eyes.

Rei looked down and closed his eyes.

"Yes? Father?" he asked, slightly shaking.

"Where have you been?"

"Here at home father. Why?" A hand grabbed his collar and jerked him to face his father.

" Don't lie to me Boy! Where have you been?"

" I told you! At home." He gasped when a fist rammed itself into his gut. He squeezed his eyes shut.

"Where were you?'"

"Father I was at home! I never left!" His back collided with the wall as his father tossed him into the wall. He let out a small cry. He fell on his stomach.

"I never asked for a smart mouth I asked where you were. Now tell me!"

"The only place I went was on the roof." Tears flew into his eyes. He looked pleadingly at his father.

" Why were on the roof boy?'" Rei growled and he stood up. And glared up at him.

" Why do you have to know where I am?! It's not like you care!" His father growled and punched him his son in the cheek. It sent Rei flying across the room. Tears filled his eyes. "Why does he do this to me? What did I do? " Then Reis back stung with pain. He cried out as it hit again. His father held his own belt in his hands. Rei tried to get out of the room he got down the hall when a rough hand grabbed his shoulder,

"Father, no please! Stop!" Rei begged his father. His father just laughed at him and smacked him across the face with the belt buckle. Blood fell down the teens' face. His cries went on until midnight. His father left him on the floor of his room. The teens' clothes were ripped and blood spattered.

"Why…me…" He whispered before he slipped into a faze of unconsciousness.

He woke up the next day, pain shooting up his whole body. He squeezed his eyes shut as he tried to move his arms. As pain shot up he gritted his teeth. And picked himself up. And stumbled over and stripped what was left of his clothes and he stepped into the shower. He clinched hi fists s the water fell on the scars.

After about an hour he stepped out and dressed in brand new out fit. He slipped on his shoes. He slipped on his bandana. And looked at himself in the mirror. No one would suspect a thing. He weakly walked down the stairs and grabbed his beyblade and headed out the door.

A smile crossed his features as one of his friends came into view.

"Hey Max!" Rei called to a blonde haired blue eyed boy wearing a red shirt and blue shorts with white and light blue striped shoes. The boy smiled at him when he called out to him.

"Hey Rei! Tyson Reis here!" A navy haired boy with red eyes looked up and a grin crossed his face.

"Hey Rei! What's up?" Rei walked up to the two boys.

"The sky." Tyson did a mock laugh. Rei laughed. He smiled at them.

"We were just about to have a battle when you came up. You want to be ref?"

" Sure, okay." Rei walked to the side of the dish and held his hand out. "Okay. Ready, 3…2…1…Let it Rip!" The Tyson and Max launched their blades. Rei watched the battle.

"Get ready to lose. Max!"

"Not a chance Tyson. I'm going to win this one. Go Draciel!" Max called out his turtle bit beast.

" So that's how you want to play it huh Maxie. Well two can play that game. Go Dragoon!" A dragon type bit beast rose from the blade. The two crashed with each other. Rei watched entranced by the sight. He smiled as he forgot everything.

A hand touched his shoulder. Rei looked back to see a slate haired teen, with crimson eyes and blue shark fins on his cheeks. Rei smiled.

" Hey Kai!" Kai just slides his hand off my shoulder and crossed his arms over his chest and walked over to a tree.

"Hello to you too." Rei muttered as he focused on the match again.

Later on that afternoon the team (A.N. No Kenny. I didn't feel like putting him in.) was lounging at a café. Rei was sitting in at a bench, beside Kai was across from Max who was beside Tyson. Tyson as usual was wolfing down his food. Rei was looking out he window.

Max looks over at Rei.

" Hey Rei," Rei looks over at Max.

"Yeah?"

" Aren't you going to eat?" Rei shook his head.

" Nah. I'm not that hungry." Max cocked his head.

" You alright?" Rei smiles at him and says,

" Of course. Just because I don't eat, doesn't mean that I'm not alright." Max nodded and went back to talking to Tyson. Rei smiled as he looked out the window again. A sigh escaped his lips.

" If only they knew. " Rei thought. Kai glanced over at Rei and saw something different in his eyes. Rei closed his eyes. And stood up.

" I'm going to walk around guys. You can meet me in the park. Okay." They nodded as Rei walked out.

Rei walked out and walked to the park.

"Why me? Why can't I have a normal life, with a normal family? What did I do to deserve this?" Rei thought as he walked to a bench and sat down. He closed his eyes and let another sigh escaped his lips. "Please let something happen so I don't have to live like this anymore." Tears escaped his eyes. He quickly wiped them away from his eyes. "I can't act like this. I have to be positive. I can't have tears falling down my face when they walk up. Be positive." He opened his eyes and stood up. He plastered a smile on his face and went to a beydish and launched his Driger. He bladed for a while and quit when his friends walked up and smiled.

A.N. Well this is it. I will continue as soon as I finish This is My Fault, Okay? So tell me what you think.
