I'm back, I am kind of disappointed to see no one put a guess in their review which either means you guys don't want to play or you don't read to the end of the story. Either way it is kind of disappointing so I am going to try one more time (up here) Me and My Own Demise are twins one of us is a girl one of us is a boy. Our manes won't help because we have bisexual names (guy or girl for those who go huh). Please send me your guess in your review. (I am bored and have nothing to do)

Also if you see entire spoken sentences wrote in Italics then it is really a conversation going on in another language. Example: "how are you?" "I'm fine, you?" "Great hey your shoe is untied." That is all really in Russian, yes I know just put up with me.

Anyways enjoy and thanks for the reviews

Disclaimer: I don't own beyblade or anything that goes along with it. *sigh* too bad.

"Hello," The hotel auditor turns around and is greeted by split eyes of blue and silver. The persons white hair falling lightly in their eyes. "Hello sir what can I do for you?" The guy pulls out his wallet. "I need two rooms, connecting if you can. I am sorry I didn't make a reservation but my friends and I kind of did it spur of the moment. You understand I hope."

She smiled and began typing something in to the computer after a few seconds she looked back up. "You're in luck we just so happen to have just what you want. Now how are you paying?" The guy smiles holding opening his wallet and pulling out a credit card. "Very good Mr. Novikov just fill this out and we will charge it when you leave." He nodded taking back the card.

"Thank you miss." He walked out of the hotel to a nice car sitting in the unloading area. He swung open the passenger side door. "Alright time to wake up." He said tossing the sleeping teen out of the car. "Justin, what the fuck are you doing?" The teen asked his crimson eyes opening as he sat himself against the car. "I got a hotel room, now don't you think that is more comfortable then a car Kai?"

Kai pulled himself into a standing position, everything hurting as he did. "Now help me get you friends out of the back seat he is still out cold. Kai opened the back door. "Don't you think it will look weird?" Justin shrugged his shoulders. "We'll just say he had too much fun last night."

Kai rolled his eyes, no clothes, no money except what Justin had on a pre-pay card and all three of them were 'dead' and yet they were staying at a hotel in Russia, go figure. Justin pulled Ray out of the car slinging him over his shoulders. "Let's get inside."

They walk into the hotel and head towards the elevator, no one even glanced at them. Soon enough they are settled into the connecting rooms, Justin in one and Ray and Kai in the other. Kai leaned back against the wall. "So this is what it's like to be dead." Justin smiled and lay back on his bed. "It's not that bad once you get use to it. I mean this is the second time Voltaire had 'killed' me."

Kai shrugs his shoulders and walks back to his and Ray's room, shutting the door behind him. It wasn't as nice as the ones she had grown acquainted to but Justin was right it was better than the car.

Kai lies back on the bed nearest the wall, resting his aching muscles. He hears a low moan as the Chinese blader next to him flips over, his eyes opening just enough to see the gold. "So guess we aren't dead." Kai shrugged. "Depends on who you are asking, to the world yes we are. To us no we aren't." Ray sits up grabbing at his head. "What happened? I can't remember anything after finding the bomb." Kai flipped over not looking at his friend. "Thank God for that." Kai mumbled and then cursed himself as he remembered this friend's acute hearing. "What was the Kai?"

Kai flips back over to look at his friend. "Ray just get some rest and I'll explain everything when you are rested alright?" Reluctantly Ray lies back down, even though he wanted to know what was going on fatigue got the better of him and soon his was asleep.

Tala adjusted in his seat on the plane. They were going to make their debut as a new team in a little tournament in China. Tala looked to his right to see Kagen had curled up and went to sleep, the boys eyes were sunk in, his complexion turning a ghostly pale. Tala was worried for the younger boy's health but he knew there was nothing he could do.

No sooner had Tala been thinking about this did the light blue eyes beside him open. "You alright?" Tala asked looking forward again. Kagen sat up pulling his legs to his chest and resting his head on them. "I don't know, I have just felt really weak these last few days and today it's even worse." Tala rubbed his neck trying to work out the stiffness that was setting in.

"You have been taking your medicine right?" Kagen's cheeks burn with color as Tala mentions the medication. "Not really. Grandfather took me off it." Tala tuned to face him, working hard to keep disgust off his face. "You have to take it no matter what your Grandfather says. You could die without it." Kagen looked away his face flushing more.

"He says that I have gotten better and that with the . . . enhancements I should be alright." Tala shook his head. "I don't care when we get to China you are taking it. It is obvious that you still need it, if you didn't you wouldn't look like you were going to pass out." Kagen laid his heads back against the seat not looking at Tala, he knew the older boy was right but he had so hoped to be off that awful stuff forever. "Yeah alright if you say-"

He cut off as pain shot through him. He grabs his head with a cry. "Kagen, are you okay?" Kagen doubles over as the pain begins to overwhelm him, screams escaping his lungs. "Kagen!" He feels a hand on his back but it is distant. As the pain rips its way through his body, he falls forward out of his seat. His vision begins to blur as the pain broke into his mind. After a few more seconds he loses control, sliding back into his mind.

Kagen looks up, surrounded by black as flames swirled around him, holding him in place. It was the prison inside his mind. He was able to keep that thing that shared his body contained here most times but he had lost control and the tables had switched. He would have to start from square one and try to escape this prison and trap that thing back in it before they got to China, because otherwise he might lose control for good.

Kai's POV

I looked up at the ceiling counting the tiles for the eighth time. Was I tired, yes, so why you ask was I counting tiles, because I couldn't get to freaking sleep! My body wanted sleep, I wanted sleep but I couldn't get to sleep. I had been tempted more than once to turn on the T.V but since Ray had somehow settled down and went to sleep I wasn't going to do anything that might wake him up.

So instead I laid in my bed counting tiles and thinking, the latter providing the true distraction, somehow though my thoughts always went back to one thing, Kagen. I wanted to know what they were doing to him, but more importantly I wanted to know if he was still my brother. He had been fighting it but after our father did who knows what to him.

Trying to distract myself from thinking about Kagen, I looked around the room. My view coming to rest on the blue blade that sat on the night stand. What I wouldn't do to just disappear for a little while and lunch her. Normally I would have, but since in the last few days I had been bagged, kidnapped, and almost blown up I was being a little bit more careful.

At some point my body got the message that I was tired and finally began to let me fall asleep.

*****

I ran up the stairs that lead to my room, passing my mother's room as I did. "Voltaire I said get out!" Grandfather why was he here? I walk over to the door, looking in through the crack as to not be seen. "Izabella I am here to take Kai and there is nothing you can do about that."

I step back slightly but then I return to watching, mother would never let that happen. "Voltaire I told you, you are going to keep away from my children. If you don't leave now when Alexei gets back he is going to make you." Voltaire laughs at my mother and I clinched my teeth to keep from saying anything. "If you are waiting on Alexei you are sadly misinformed. He is in China attending the funeral of that bitch."

"Mei was not a bitch and I already knew that." My mother spits back. "You are so sad, he loved her you worthless whore, far more then he could ever love you. He was willing to kill her he loved her so much. Instead of seeing her with another man he murdered her." I see my mom slap Voltaire and take a deep breath. "Alexei is not like you. Now leave before I make you."

Voltaire slaps her back but my mother doesn't flinch. "I will make you pay for this Izabella. In fact I'll start now. Tomorrow I am pulling all funds for that worthless child's recovery." I feel my blood freeze; he wouldn't really pull support away from Kagen's recovery would he?

"You wouldn't do that." Voltaire laughs and I lean forward just a little more. "You don't think I will, just watch me." My mother loses some of her momentum in the argument as Grandfather threatens the one thing he has over us. "Please Voltaire Kagen will die if you do that." Voltaire laughs, sending chills down my spine.

"I will make you a deal Izabella. You send both boys with me and I will make sure that Kagen has the best treatment money can buy." My mom wraps her arms around herself to keep warm. "So you can turn them both into monster like you." My mother hisses. "Izabella I am afraid you don't have many choices. Either you send both boys with me or Kagen will be left suffer the repercussions of his illness."

"You can't do that!" I yell and then slap my hand over my mouth as the door is thrown open. "Kai how long have you been there?" My mother asks me as I run over to her. "He's been there long enough to understand, haven't you Kai." I look over at my Grandfather. "You can't do it!" I yell again, Voltaire laughs at me which only angers me farther.

"Voltaire think about what you are saying. Kagen needs this, he'll die otherwise. You can't really be willing to let your own Grandson die just because you didn't get exactly what you want." Voltaire glares at my mom and then at me. "You want a bet; Kagen is like you, weak. He lacks the qualities that are necessary to be a true Hiwatari. Kai on the other hand is like his father like a true Hiwatari should be, but if he continues to live here around you he will be just as worthless as his brother."

"Kagen is not useless! Besides who would ever want to be like you!" I saw the rage flare up in Voltaire's eyes and smiled inwardly, serves him right. "Well if that is how you both feel, you can explain it to Kagen when he is taking his last breath." "Stop doing that! Stop using him against us!" I knew it was a bad idea for me to keep pushing Voltaire but he couldn't do what he was threatening.

"Why should I? He is weak and right now the only thing keeping him alive is my support so why shouldn't I get something out of his meaningless life? Kai you need to realize everyone has a place. Your place is at the top, whereas Kagen's place is in the shadows. That is how it is meant to be."

"Stop using me against them grandfather, it's not fare." The voice was quiet but it held certainty. A young boy with blue eyes that we hidden from view by his deep blue hair stands in the doorway. "Kagen dear what are you doing up? You should be in bed; you need all the rest you can get tomorrow is a big day." Voltaire laughs.

"Your right tomorrow is a big day do you want to know why Kagen?" I wiggle out of my mother's grasp and run to my brother. "Leave him alone!" Kagen looks over at me, his eyes sunk in from the illness. "Kai," Voltaire continues. "Tomorrow you're going to die, unless you and your brother come to live with me."

"Father what are you doing?" Another voice cut in. "Dad?" I ask turning around to see my dad his red eyes enraged. "I am simply explaining to your wife and boys the delicate situation that they are in."

"Oh and what situation is that?" My dad asks coldly, my mother walks to beside him, the four of us against him I like these odds. "He said if the boys don't go with him he is going to pull his support for Kagen's recovery." My father glares daggers at Voltaire. "Kagen can't survive without this treatment. Who the hell do you think you are to start playing God with my son's life?!" Voltaire simply waves of the question or statement as it was. "I think I am the one paying for it. I am leaving you can let me know tomorrow what you decid-" Voltaire is cut short by a sudden outbreak of coughing, as my brother drops to his knees, I bend down by him.

"Kagen!" My mother calls placing him into her lap. Voltaire steps past us not even looking down at my brother. "Like I said your decision tomorrow." Tears roll down his cheeks as he continues to cough his throat tuning raw.

"I'll go warm up the car." My father says before stepping out. "Kai I need to go get his medicine watch him." She lays my brother into me, he can barley breath between coughs. "It's alright Kagen." I whisper but just as I do he leans forward. With his cough comes blood as his raw throat leeks blood. "MOTHER!" I yell not knowing what else to do.

"I'm sorry I'm such a burden Bolʹshoĭ brat." I place a hand on his back as my mother runs in. "ALEXEI!" My father comes in seeing the blood he knows what my mother is going to say. "Call your father tell him to come to the hospital, Kagen needs the treatment now."

*******

I pried my eyes open already knowing that there was no way I was getting anymore sleep after that dream. That was when it had all started; it seems somewhat ironic that it was mother that died the next day when it was Kagen's life that was being held against us.

I looked over to my right at the bed beside me. Ray was twisting and turning like he had been for hours. I once again debated waking him up, and once again I decided that he needed sleep even if it meant unpleasant dreams.

It wasn't till I saw his hands did I began to reconsider this decision. His hands were twisted around the sheets, his claws had pierced into his palms and blood was slowly seeping into the sheets. Maybe I should wake him up.

No sooner had I thought this did he sit up suddenly. "NO!" He screamed as he sat up. It took him only a moment to find his view over to me, when he saw me sitting up his face feel. "Kai." He said quietly.
