\Don't Walk Away
By: RoseofSharon28
Disclaimer- I don't own beyblade nor the two songs by Kelly Clarkson. "Gone" and "Because of you." In 'Because of You' i changed one word in the song since to me it is a swear word and I don't use it so I won't be writing it in here. Just wanted to say that before anyone reviews telling me that I wrote the song wrong. lol
AN- Thanks to all my reviewers. Here is the chapter that you've been waiting for. cough-cough-kelly-cough-cough lol well i'll stop blabbering. don't forget to review! Okay there are songs by kelly clarkson that are being used in this chapter. Pretend that Kiska is the one that wrote them not her but still all credit goes to Kelly Clarkson! Oh and regular type is Kiska singing, (things in parenthesis is Jelena, Mariah, and Hilary)-things in this is all of them singing-
Chapter 7
Jelena, Hilary and Mariah woke up early with excitement. They couldn't wait for their gig at the mall.
"Hey do you guys think that there's something more going on between Kiska and Kai?" Mariah whispered careful to not wake Kiska.
"I dunno. I mean, how could you think that if they're never together. She's always with us." Jelena asked.
"That's what I thought." Mariah started. "She sneaks out almost every night and meets him at the park"
"Your kidding." Hilary said.
"Nope. I followed her last night. And I can't believe it! Kai can talk!" Mariah said a bit to loudly and Kiska started to stir. But luckily she was still asleep. Or so they thought.
"We should try to get them together." Hilary suggested.
"No you won't. I just told Adrian yesterday to forget about it because it wasn't gonna happen." Kiska said opening her eyes and looking at them.
"H-How long have you been awake?" Mariah stuttered.
"Long enough. Now like I told Adrian. We're only friends and we'll never be more then that. We talked about it and that was the outcome. So don't waste your time." Kiska said.
"Way to ruin our fun." Hilary said with a sigh.
"Well that's my job." Kiska said winking and giving a thumbs up.
"Hmph." Hilary said.
"Lookie there! A 'Kai impersonator'." Kiska teased. 'Even though he's really not like that once you get to know him.' She thought.
"Um...Breakfast?" Mariah asked having a feeling that Hilary could explode any time.
"Oh. Help yourselves to anything in the kitchen." Hilary answered.
They went ahead and ate breakfast. After that they practiced for a couple hours. Then they had to pack their stuff so that they could start setting up at the mall. Once the main stuff was set up they went through sound check. And when they were done with that they were free to just hang around the mall. So they did some shopping.
(Adrian's POV)
I arrived at the mall with Tyson and Max. We got into the middle of the mall where they would be performing and saw that everything was set up and everything was ready to go. 'I wonder where they are...' I wondered. I scanned the crowd of people looking to see if they were there.
"If we were girls, Where would we go?" I asked.
"ARCADE!" Tyson said grinning.
"I doubt that.They're probably out shopping somewhere." Max said.
"You know this how?" Tyson asked.
"Hey, You guys ditched me a couple times and left me with a girls. I became their personal bag holder since they brought me here. Trust me, not a fun thing." Max said.
"Heh. Sorry 'bout that." Tyson said.
"Oh look there they are!" I said noticing them at a jewelry store looking in the window. They walked up to them and told them hi.
"You guys ready?" I asked.
"Oh yah!" My sister said with a smile. "When exactly are we on?"
"Less than an hour." I answered.
"Adrian? Has dad asked about anything yet?" Kiska asked.
"Not that I know of." I replied. But I have had a feeling that he smells somthing fishy lately. He hasn't said anything yet but I'm that he'll do something about it really soon.
(regular POV)
"We'll you guys better get up there and warm up. Start bringing in a crowd." Adrian said.
"If you say so. Ready girls?" Mariah asked exitedly.
The boys started to find a place to sit on the ground to watch them while the girls went on stage.
"Warm up number one." Kiska said.
Mariah started with a beat and Jelena quickly joined in doing a guitar solo. Then Hilary and Kiska followed. They could see many random stares looking their way from around the mall. Some people would stop and watch then continue going on their way. The group continued for awhile longer until someone came up to them.
"You guys ready?" The guy asked.
"Um...Yah...You are?" Hilary asked.
"Oh sorry. I'm Mr. Carlson. I'll be introducing you guys when your ready." He said with a smile.
"Well then go right ahead because we're ready to play!" Mariah said happily.
"Great!" Mr.Carlson said and started to walk to the front. "Okay ladies and gentlemen. We have a special treat today. A band from our town is gonna perform a couple of song's for you. Please make sure to encourage them. Have a great day." He said then walked off. Kiska came to the mic that he was just at.
"Because of You." Kiska said into the mic.
(Dominic's POV)
I arrived at the mall just in time to see them being announced. Kiska walked up and said the title of the song. Then she started singing.
I will not make the same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself
Cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did,
You fell so hard
I've learned the hard way
To never let it get that far
Because of you
-I never stray to far from the sidewalk-
Because of you
-I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt-
Because of you
-I find it hard to trust not only me but everyone around me-
Because of you
I am afraid
I huge pang of guilt hit me. She wrote this because of what I did to her. I felt guilty the moment she was brought everything that I did wrong. Now guilt was only rising more within me. How could I be mad at her? I deserved what she did to me the last time I saw her in the ally. Who know's what else could've happened if her friend hadn't showed up. I was such a jerk.
I lose my way
And it's not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake
A smile, a laugh everyday of life
My heart can't possibly break
When it wasn't even whole to start with
Because of you
-I never stray to far form the sidewalk-
Because of you
-I I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt-
Because of you
-I find it hard to trust not only me but everyone around me-
Because of you
I am afraid
I watched you die
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
I was so young
You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
And now I cry in the middle of the night
For the same old thing
Because of you
-I never stray too far from the sidewalk-
Because of you
-I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt-
Because of you
-I try my hardest just to forget everything-
Because of you
-I don't know how to let anyone else in-
Because of you
-I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty-
Because of you
I am afraid
-Because of you
Because of you-
I started to debate if I should leave or not. But I still feel like I should be here to support her. Even if she completely hates me. I wouldn't blame her. The song faded and they started to get ready for the next song. She scanned the crowd and I think she noticed me. Or so I figure since she suddenly looks kinda nervous. She took a deep breath and got ready to talk.
"Gone." She said. She turned her head towards the girl with the electric guitar. She nodded and started playing. Kiska put her her guitar down on the side and grabbed the mic. She started really as they say 'feeling the music'.
What you see's not what you get
With you, There's just no measurement
No way to tell what's real from what isn't there(there)
You eyes
They sparkled
But that's all changed
Into lies that drop like acid rain
You washed away
The best of me
You don't care(care)
"You don't care" She sung. Way to make me feel worse. I really don't know what was going through my head when everything went down a couple years ago. I don't know what made me do that to her...
You know you did it
I'm gone
To find someone to love for in this world
There's no light at the end of the tunnel tonight
Just a bridge that I gotta burn
You were wrong
If you think you can walk right through my door
That is just so you
Coming back when I've finally moved on
I'm already gone
Sometimes shattered
Never open
Nothing matters
When you're broken
That was me
Whenever I was with you (you)
Always ending(Always ending)
Always over(Always over)
Back and forth, up and down, like a roller coaster
I'm breaking(I'm breaking), that habit(That habit) today
You know you did it
I'm gone
To find someone to love for in this world
There's no light at the end of the tunnel tonight
Just a bridge that I gotta burn
You were wrong
If you think you can walk right through my door
That is just so you
Coming back when I've finally moved on
I'm already gone
There is nothing you can say
Sorry doesn't cut it, babe
Take the hit and walk away
Cause I'm gone
Doesn't matter what you do
It's what you did that's hurting you
All I needed was the truth
Now I'm gone
Is that my cue to leave. "Take the hit and walk away." Perhaps it was. I started to turn around and leave when I felt pairs of eyes looking at me. One was Kiska's. She was looking right at me as if making sure that I heard her words. The other pair, I didn't know who he was but I recognized him. He was 'Kiska's body guard' as I'd like to say. Something told me to stay where I was and not go anywhere so I did.
What you see's not what you get
-What you see's not what you get-
-You know you did it-
I'm gone
To find someone to live for in this world (To live for in this world)
(yah)There's no light at the end of the tunnel tonight
Just a bridge that I gotta burn ( I gotta burn)
You are wrong (I'm already gone)
If you think you can walk right through my door (walk through my door)
That's just so you
Coming back when I've finally moved on (Moved on, finally moved on)
I'm already gone (I'm already gone)
I'm already gone (Oh)
Ooh, I'm already gone (oh)
Already gone (oh)
I'm gone(oh)
(Zivon's POV)
I was walking through the mall earlier this week when I saw a note on a board about all the upcoming events. The note was talking about a female band that was coming to perform a couple songs then the names were written below. I recognized Kiska. Though at the time I wasn't that sure if it was her or not but now I know.
I felt curious about all this. Last time I saw her she was complaining about how her dad wouldn't let her do any of this music stuff. Had he changed his mind? I grunted. Why did I want to come here in the first place? I listened to her two songs which the second one seemed to be pointed at me a bit. But my thinking 'I'm in a song.' I smirked. I started to leave the mall being done watching her.
(Kai's POV)
I finally got to hear that the songs sounded like. I only got to read them when they were still being wrote. During the end of the last song I spotted Dominic. He was starting to move through the crowd. I couldn't tell if he was trying to leave or get closer to Kiska. He suddenly stopped and looked and me and didn't move from where he was standing. Everyone started clapping when the song was done. Mariah, Hilary, Jelena and Kiska bowed.
(Regular POV)
Everyone started to go their own ways making the center of the mall look crazy. Kai made his way over to Dominic.
"Don't you do anything to her." Kai said coming up behind him.
"Is telling her good job against your regulations for Kiska's safefy?" Dominic asked.
Kai stared in his eyes looking for anything that might lead to something else. "I guess...that's okay." Kai said walking towards where Kiska and everyone else was. Dominic followed.
"You guys were awesome!" Ray said giving them high five's.
"Thanks." Mariah said happily.
"He's here." Kiska said to herself looking to where Kai was coming from with Dominic following.
"Huh?" Mariah asked. Mariah followed her gaze until she saw Dominic.
"Kiska..." Dominic started. The boys, Hilary, and Jelena stopped noticing their new arrival. "Before you start ignoring me, I just wanted to say good job today. You guys are great."
"Thanks. Now I never said that I would talk to you after the show, so you must be on your way." Kiska said crossing her arms.
"You're right. I gotta go. Bye." Dominic said then turned around and left.
"Is that the guy you were telling us about?" Tyson asked.
"Yah. Dominic." Adrian said.
"Big dumb butt Zivon was here too." A girl said seemingly popping out of nowhere. Kiska grinned.
"Now who is this?" Tyson asked seeing another new arrival.
"I'm Nika. Kiska's friend since like elementry!" The girl said with a smile."Aren't you gonna introduce me Kiska?" She asked putting her hands on her hips and started to tap her foot.
"This is my personal shrink Nika. Nika. Meet...Hilary, Mariah, Jelena, Tyson, Max, Ray, and Kai. And you already know Adrian." Kiska said.
"Personal shrink?" Max asked.
"Yah. Why? Do you need one for your sugar problem?" Kiska asked. Everyone laughed excluding Kai who only smirked.
"Well, Like I said...dumb Zivon was here. He hasn't changed one bit. I was restraining myself to not go beat him him right then and there. I mean he was only like a couple feet away from me and-" Nika said talking really fast and dramatically.
"Nika...They don't exactly know everything about them yet." Kiska interrupted.
"Oh... Sorry." Nika said. "Well? Are you gonna tell them?"
"I'd rather go to a more private place then here. Hilary, is your house okay?" Kiska asked.
"Of course." Hilary said.
Everyone found way's to get to Hilary's house. They all met in her garage. Once everyone was there Kiska decided to start.
"Well, where should I begin?" Kiska asked herself more then anyone inparticular. "Well it all started with..."
