Title: The Prank On Kai
Author: Pikadaj
Sumary: Tyson and Max decide to play a prank on Kai that changes him into a girl... KaiRay, hints of one sided JohnnyKai.
The fight seems to drag on and on and even Ray and Kai find themselves watching, wondering who exactly as the battle progresses. They have noticed that Enrique keeps giving small comments to the Scot, something that would normally, no doubt, piss Johnny off quite badly.
Somehow, however, the words seem to have little to no effect on the other blader. Johnny keeps batteling, not letting up even the least bit, before finally, finally, the battle ends...
Johnny wins.
The crowds cheer, deafening sounds which surrounds Ray and Kai, and Kai wonders if it's true or just imagination that Johnny's eyes flitted to him for a split second, before turning back to Enrique. Johnny smirks at the blonde, crossing his arms over his chest. "You lose." He sneers at the blonde.
Finally, finally, he has beaten the blonde. He has proven that as long as he stays focussed, he can beat the blonde just like he can beat so many others. However, to his disappointment, Enrique doesn't look the least bit defeated. Instead, the blonde is wearing a grin that might split his face if it is to grow any wider. For a split second Johnny is reminded of Max and wonders if it's a 'blondes thing'.
"So I have, congratulations." Enrique grins at him, acting like it was all planned. For a moment, Johnny's composture falters. Did Enrique let him win? No. No he didn't. He knows how the blonde blades, this was truely his full power... right? Right.
Suddenly he doesn't feel so sure of his victory anymore, wondering, pondering. Was it truely his own strength that won him this? Was it, perhaps, a battle that Enrique just threw away? What can it be? Anger runs through Johnny's veins at the thought of the blonde taking pity on him and letting him win.
Of course, Enriques isn't stupid. And while he knows that he truely did fight his hardest, he also knows that only a rematch with the same result will convince Johnny of this. "I guess you're getting the kiss, hm?" He smirks, easily switching subjects.
What with how Johnny gapes at him, eyes slightly wide and a blush slowly creeping onto his cheeks before he forces it down, Enrique is pretty sure that it was the right subject to switch to. "Right!" He calls to the stance, focussing on Kai who narrows his eyes at him.
Johnny splutters a little, shaking his head lightly. "I-We-But-You-I." He stammers at Enrique, eyes still wide and cheeks darkening once more. He dares his eyes up to Kai before turning his back to the blunette, trying to get his breathing under control. 'Would be nice... No. What am I thinking! It's Kai! The arrogant bastard I curse whenever something goes wrong! Just because he looks a bit... different now... It's still the same bastard!'
However, he can't help but thing about taking the other's form into his arms, pulling the blunette close. Kai would look at him with those beautiful red eyes of him, lips curving into a small smile as their faces would get closer... closer...
"And now, the moment we've alllll been waiting for!" Comes the announcement, snapping Johnny out of his thoughts. "The finals between McGregor Johnny and Tate Mao!"
Johnny looks up at Kai, watching the other jump out of the stands easily. Aparently the other seems to be able to move quite fine in this body, though Johnny doesn't know that is only due to some heavy practice which had taken place last night.
Without a word, Kai moves to the dish, taking Enrique's place as he prepares Dranzer. They don't exchange any words as the countdown goes before launching their blades into the dish, yet Johnny has a hard time concentrating, mostly due to his previous thoughts.
"DRANZER!" A wind blows past Johnny's face and he blinks a few times, slowly looking back to see Salamalyon stuck in the wall, a small crater around it. "Wha-How!" He splutters, turning wide eyes over to Kai who smirks as Dranzer flies back into his hand.
"Maybe next time, you'd do well to keep focussed on the game, McGregor." Kai sneers at him, once more reminding Johnny that yes, this is, indeed, Hiwatari Kai. Damn it.
To celebrate Kai winning the tournament, no matter how small it was, Ray managed to convince the three others to take a small walk over the market and maybe eat some food while they were there. Since none of them actually knows anything else to do, the other three agreed to the proposition.
The market is pretty crowded, people walking and talking, children running around and playing. It just so happens that one of these children bumps into Kai while he's not completely focussed, causing him to lose his balance, slowly, slowly, as if in slomotion, he starts to fall. Johnny's eyes widen and immediately he reaches out, catching Kai.
Lips brush ever so lightly, and Johnny knows that he has just recieved the not quite promised kiss. Kai blinks a few times, wondering if that just really happened... while Ray can't control the narrowing of his eyes, knowing that has really happened...
After a quiet and, not to forget, awkward trip back to the hotel, they are met by the other people of the two teams, everyone staring at a glass which holds a pink fluid. It seems to bubble a little.
"Are you sure this isn't poison, Tyson?" Max asks carefully. To him, the fluid seems... alive in a way.
"I'm sure, Max. I said exactly what the book said while Robert did it!" Tyson argues, looking offended that his friend would actually think that he would mess it up. He did what they wanted to do earlier as well; turn Kai into a girl. It succeeded, it just didn't get them out of training like Tyson has wanted to happen...
"So... that's the cure?" Ray asks, eying the glass a bit sceptical upon which Tyson nods. He shifts his eyes to Kai for a slight moment, watching as the blunette raises an eyebrow at the glass. Ray can't really blame him however. He too, would feel fear if he were to have to swallow... that.
Finally, after a few minutes of silence in which everyone stares at the glass, wondering if the contents of it will suddenly come to life, Kai finally reaches out and takes the glass. Everyone in the room seems to hold their breath as Kai slowly lifts the glass to his lips.
He squeezes his eyes shut before downing the drink, ignoring the foul taste it carries and forcing himself to swallow it all. Only when it is finished he allows the glass to slip onto the floor, shattering into pieces, as he coughs, eyes squeezing shut as a pink glow surrounds him. His eyes slip closed slowly as the floor seems to come near very fast.
Well. Considering that the original chapter had like... nothing happening in it except for the kiss, there was a LOT to add into this to make it look like SOMETHING n.n;;
