Chapter
1B
Sleepover Invite
"You, the Bladebreakers, are cordially invited to a sleepover at my house after the concert. You'll probably end up spending most of the time with them though," she said, gesturing at her cousin, her best friend and Kari. "They're the ones who like to "partay"," as most kids in the school I used to go to said."
"Did you go to school in America by any chance," Max asked.
"Yep."
"Do you blade," Kai asked out of the blue. The other three girls almost froze and waited for her reaction. Calmly, she pulled out her blade and offered it for their inspection.
"You have the Immortal White Dragon!" Max half-yelled; she sighed.
"We've already been through the whole 'legendary of the legendary' thing already…" She paused and smirked. "Not to mention a part of the legend that I doubt you guys ever heard…or are gonna hear!" Giggling insanely, all four ran out of the room, Tyson and Max on their heels.
"Can't catch me," Yumei yelled the happiness and enjoyment in her voice obvious.
'…she sounds better like-what am I thinking!' Said person scowled and pretended that what he just thought never was thought.
"She seems happier at least," Mrs. Sueñe-Despierto muttered.
"What," her three band mates asked.
"She told them…"
"Told them what," Rei asked.
"What happened to make her go from a happy, life-loving girl into a quiet and depressed one…one time we went hiking and were chased to the edge of a cliff by wolves. She wasn't able to stop in time and skidded over the edge. The next time we saw her was four months later and she wouldn't even talk to anyone…"
"She wouldn't even talk to me…" Kero said, his eyes tinged with hurt.
"She's just being difficult," Kari said with a sigh, as though anything that involved her younger band mate wasn't even worth while.
"You're on in five," said a backstage hand.
"Ok," Yumei said. "You guys better get to your spots. I'll show you on my way to the stage." She led the way to the seats, and rushed to the stage. Everyone sat down and then the curtains were pulled back.
"HELLO TOKYO!" A mass of fans screamed, applauded and made noise in general. "ARE YOU READY!"
"YEAH!"
"Well, then how about we start tonight's show off with a new song just written yesterday!" The stadium roared its approval.
"Then here goes!"
Chorus:
I'm depressed
Leave me alone
You can talk all you want
But nobody's home
You can yell all you want
'Til your face turns blue
But it's me you'll not daunt
I'll get a rise out of you
You'll give me what I desire
So you might as well quit
It'll be over
And that'll be the end of it
Chorus
Try as you might
I won't give up
'Til you're out of sight
And I'm on my own
This is the way
It's got to be
I'll never change
And so you'll see
Chorus
I've left this place
But I'm still depressed
The way I feel
Will never be repressed
And so it ends
That's how it goes
I'll never change
And you're the one who knows
Chorus
(A/A/N: Where is says chorus, she sang the chorus and the song starts out with the chorus.)
The packed stadium echoed with cheers.
"YU-MEI! YU-MEI! YU-MEI! YU-MEI! YU-MEI!" The whole stadium began chanting her name and her band mates just stared at her. She hadn't even talked to them about a new song, yet they had just performed it flawlessly in front of an audience of millions; some were there at the concert and others watching from home.
"New song? She never told us about any new song…" Murmured Mrs. Sueñe-Despierto.
3 hours later
"So, Yumei, does that song relate to anything that's going on around here," the announcer asked.
"Well, actually, it didn't. Until today, that is. Although, I'm only referring to the "leave me alone" part."
"Care to tell us who it refers to?"
"Nah…however, you might be a bit more interested in who scored backstage tickets instead of our new song," she said, gesturing backstage.
"So who's there," the announcer asked.
"We are," Tyson shouted, hopping out on stage. The rest of the gang followed.
"Does their appearance have anything to do with your new look," the announcer asked.
"Actually it does. I had a complete make-up makeover by Mariah, Mariam and Hilary."
"So, how long have you guys been fans of "Broken Dreams"," the announcer guy asked.
"Since they started up four years ago," Hilary and Max said at the same time.
"Is it true that you blade," the announcer guy (whose name is now Chad) asked.
"Yeah…"
"So why don't you and the world champion have a quick match, right here, right now?"
"Tyson?"
"I'm game," he yelled, pulling Dragoon out.
"There's your answer," Yumei replied and readied her beyblade to launch as well.
"3…2…1…LET IT RIP!" Both Tyson and Yumei released their blades at the same time and the blades immediately crashed into each other.
"DRAGOON! GALAXY STORM!"
"IMMI! PSYCHOTIC TSUNAMI!"
Their attacks clashed and their blades went flying backwards, causing both to be knocked off their feet. Tyson stood up amidst all the smoke.
"It would seem that…" He trailed off as Yumei calmly stood and wiped blood from the corner of her mouth.
"This match just might be interesting," she said, straightening herself completely.
"You can say that again! DRAGOON, one more time! GALAXY STORM!"
"IMMI! TITANIC TIDALWAVE!" Both of them released the same amount of energy, but Yumei used hers more wisely and almost knocked Tyson's blade from the make-shift bowl that had been hastily constructed.
"ALRIGHT IMMI! FINISHING MOVE: BETRAYAL BOMBARDMENT!" There was another huge explosion and the area was once again filled with smoke.
When it cleared, neither blade was spinning.
"AWW MAN," Yumei and Tyson shouted at the same time.
"REMATCH!" Tyson shouted.
"YOU'RE ON!" Yumei yelled back.
"Show's over kids," Mrs. Sueñe-Despierto said with a sweatdrop.
"So? I want a rematch!" Both shouted at her.
"Then save it for tomorrow!" She screamed back. Huffily, they agreed to have it tomorrow and trooped back to the band's house. From there, everyone called their parents to let them know where they are.
Yumei was hesitantly about to hand the phone to Kai.
"I don't need it." Was all he said before closing his eyes and leaning against the wall again. She raised an annoyed eyebrow but refrained from commenting.
"Kai, I didn't know you had a cell phone," Tyson shouted and all the Bladebreakers turned to shut him up, but the damage had been done.
"I don't," he replied in a colder voice and walked on to the porch.
"Then how'd he call home," Tyson asked.
"El stupido," the frustrated female blader growled.
"Awha," Tyson asked.
"She just called you "the stupid"," Ken said, and snickered. Fuming about Tyson being an idiot, Yumei stalked off to the porch as well.
"TYSON YOU IDIOT," Hil yelled and hit him over the head.
"Baka," she growled as she hopped up on the railing. (Yumei)
"Exactly," Kai muttered coming up and standing near her. He could tell she was dying to ask why he didn't call home but was too polite or too considerate of his feelings to ask. "If you really want to know, my grandfather is the owner of Bio Volt Abbey and the only reason he'd ever care about me is if I would help him try to take over the world…"
"That…creep…is your grandfather," she asked angrily. Kai looked at her hands; they were clasped together but shaking with anger on her lap. He nodded. "I wanna kill that…" Her hands clenched into fists, gripping the fabric of her jeans tightly and she trailed off.
'She's kind of…what the hell am I thinking!'
/it's your hormones, master. All teens get them…/
'Anyway I can get them to go away,' a semi-desperate Kai asked.
/no, young master, there is not/ Dranzer replied with amusement in his voice.
The girl opened her mouth to say something to him, but his eyes had a faraway look to them and she knew her words would fall upon deaf ears, so she closed her mouth and stared up at the night's sky.
'Damn…' Dranzer chuckled as his presence left Kai's mind. "What are you looking at?"
"Back from la la land, I see…"
"What's that supposed to mean?" He asked coldly.
"You had a faraway look in your eyes…I call that being in la la land and if that isn't, I don't know what is! So don't even try to deny it…" Kai scowled but said nothing. "I'm going in…it's up to you whether you stay out here or not…" With that, Yumei hopped off the railing and landed beside Kai. Without a backward glance, she walked inside. 'That went well…NOT…'
Mentally strangling her, Kai walked in after her and resumed leaning against the wall with his eyes closed.
"So-oh…" Kero muttered, trying to start a conversation.
"Video games," Yumei asked and the guys all gaped at her.
"You like video games," Tyson asked in surprise.
"Yep. I can probably kick your butt at most of the ones here too…"
"You're on!"
"Time, place, game."
"Now, this room and Super Smash Brothers!"
"I call Pikachu!"
"That weak thing? I call Mario!"
"GAME START," said the t.v.
(A/A/N: seriously, it did!)
They were both furiously hitting buttons and Yumei executed a 'Thundershock' attack. Mario went flying across the stage and out of bounds.
"One life down, nine to go-oh," chanted Yumei.
Oddly enough, Kai felt himself mentally cheering for Yumei. The problem of the matter was…he had no idea WHY he was cheering for her.
'Then again, this IS Tyson we're talking about. I'd root for just about anyone other than him…wait, why am I even rooting at all? …grrr…' Kai growled in frustration.
'Wonder what's with him…'
/should you not be paying attention to your game/
'Yeah…but I still can't help but wonder…I'm attracted to him; I can't help it::sighs mentally:: Besides, he's just like Sasuke!'
/you're about to ::Pikachu goes flying off screen:: loose…/
'Shut up.'
/now who is off in la la land/
'That's it!' Yumei started to attack Mario with renewed ferocity. "Enjoy burning in where ever, Mario," she taunted as Mario gallantly clapped for Pikachu.
"HEY!" Tyson yelled.
