I wasn't aware of it at the time, but there is already another Beyblade fic called 'Night life', even in my favorites. Out of respect I am re-naming this fic.
While I'm at it, go read Night life by zzdoricorezz.
And to address a question from 'beybladekai123':
No. There is no male pregnancy in this fic. I would not, nor will I ever just spring that on the readers. I warn for things in the first chapter of a story or in the summary if I can. I also very much promise that I am not just going to change my mind and throw it in later.

The tension was thick enough to be cut with a knife. Not bothering to look at his Grandfather, he kept his hands in his lap and his gaze down. He didn't feel like eating and had barely touched what was set in front of him. And given the recent stunt he pulled, he wouldn't have put it past the man to have his food poisoned.
It hurt, but he didn't regret what he had done. He did wish he could have gone with the others though. They had been more like a family to him than his actual blood relations. He knew he had to stay to ensure they got away safely and at least his presence was keeping them distracted from hunting after the others.
His heart constricted a little at the memory of them. But he dare not show it on his face. Especially in this mansion and in front of his Grandfather. He tended to have eyes everywhere.
A few long minutes had passed and it was his Grandfather's voice that broke the silence. "You are dismissed for now. But be in my study in exactly one hour."
Giving his Grandfather a brief acknowledgement, he swiftly got up and left for his room. Not wanting to be around the man any longer than he had to be.

Plopping on his bed, he wondered what Voltaire could want. He'd barely left the mansion since his return and was almost always under watch by one of the staff.
His Grandfather barely spoke more than two words to him, yet, it had been a strict rule that they eat at the table together. Even if he himself didn't eat much. It had caused him a little weight loss but at this point he didn't care.
Seeing as he had nearly an hour before he was expected, he closed his eyes and wondered just what the man was up to.

"Is everything packed and ready for shipment?" Voltaire asked with a stern face as he talked to the other man through the video phone.
"Indeed, Lord Voltaire. The equipment will be shipped out in the morning and arrive in a weeks time. I will be arriving tomorrow afternoon to inspect the new labs." An evil grin was on the man's face as he continued. "I trust young Kai will not be in the way."
"I have already made arrangements for that. Do not fail me this time, Boris. There will be no other chances if this fails."
The hidden meaning in the words did not go unnoticed by him. They had the one person they needed for now and despite his attempts to track down the others who had gotten away, he hadn't been able to find them. Though, even with their teachings they wouldn't have lasted long in hiding with no money or resurces of their own. "Understood."
Voltaire hung up without another word and watched as a small part of the wall covered the secret video phone once more.
Sitting in his chair, he pushed a button on the oak desk in front of him and soon enough a young man came. "What do you require?" He asked with a bow.
"Go fetch my grandson and bring him straight here."
"Right away, Lord Voltaire." The man bowed and left.
He doubted he would get any protest from the boy but Kai had no say in the matter as it were. Besides, he had to make sure the mansion was empty for a set time during the day soon and with the brat around, he knew the child would find out something before he was suspposed too and pull another stunt like he had before.
He had lost a good bit over that and it still angered him now. Soon enough, however, his plan would come to fruition. Even if it was a little late.

Authors Note:
I'll try and update sooner. I've been dealing with medical issues and a few other things for a while now. Currently I am awaiting Mri results and right now my three options are: MS, Carbon monoxide poisoning(which is doubtful at this point) or Chronic tension headaches.
I also have another headscan coming up in May.
