PREVIOUSLY IN CHAPTER 13
"So…where have you've been?" Tyson asked before he started slurping some noodles from his bowl.
"Places…" Kai replied before taking a bite from his piece of lettuce from his salad.
"I see…"
There was a brief moment of silence until Tyson broke it.
"So...umm...I'm glad that you're back..."
"You said that already..." the Hiwatari retorted back before taking bite of a sliced cucumber from his salad.
"I don't know what to say...I only met him...I guess it's okay to be friendly to him..." she thought to herself. "Good night Kai..."
The Hiwatari didn't listen to her. Instead, he entered his bedroom and closed the door behind him.
"Okay...I guess that's normal for him to act this way?"
She sighed to herself.
"I have a lot to learn about him..."
"Hey! Put it there!" the navy haired teen said as he held his hand in front of the taller blader.
He turned to the side and replied back, "I agree lead the team to victory, but that doesn't mean that we could become the best of chums now..."
"Oh...okay then...have it your way...Hiwatari..."
Her eyes shot open to find herself in bed. She slowly sat up and grabbed her hand on her forehead. Knowing that nothing was wrong with her, she laid back down, staring at the ceiling.
"Why is it keep happening to me?" she thought. "And...it doesn't seem like...Tyson...was talking to me...but...maybe someone else...but...why am I getting that person's memories?"
Warm Hearted Blader
Chapter 14 Part I: Blader Girl of the G-Revolutions
NEXT MORNING
"Morning everyone!!!" Tyson exclaimed as he opened the door and entered the living room while the rest of his teammates are waiting for him.
"Took you long enough to wake up and change," Daichi replied.
"Hey, it can't be helped...I had a nice sleep..."
"He's probably dreaming about his lover..." Max said as he looked at the Hiwatari, who was leaning against the wall with his arms crossed and then turned away to giggle.
"I wouldn't laugh if I were you," he retorted.
"Hehe...hai..." he smiled back. "Sheesh...he's being grumpy again..."
At the same time, Tyson blushed to himself. "Gosh...I hate it when Max is right..."
Out of nowhere, he began thinking about him, imagining the elegance and beauty of his appearance.
"I was dreaming about him..."
"Tyson-kun?" Ruby asked.
The navy haired teen blinked and turned to the dual haired girl.
"You ready?"
"Oh, yeah...of course..."
"Here Ruby," Kenny said as he held out a blade. "This is yours..."
"Thanks Kenny! You're the best!"
"It was nothing..."
"Let's get going!" Hilary exclaimed. "Or else we're going to be late!"
"Yes, captain...sheesh...as if..." Tyson retorted.
"What...DID YOU SAY?!" she said angrily.
Her anger caused the navy haired teen to have chills down his spine.
"Uhh...mm...nothing...hehe..."
"Good...let's go..."
"Sheesh...she's always bullying me..."
"I'm sure she doesn't mean it, Tyson-kun..." Ruby replied.
"I guess not..."
SEASIDE DOME STADIUM
"Hello Beyblade fans!" DJ Jazzman announced. "We're here for the second part of round one of the regional championships! Today's match will be the world class bladers, the G-Revolutions versus the awesome, Knight Bladers! The team who wins two out of three matches, move onto the next round!"
"It's been a while since we've been here," Max said.
"Yeah, brings back old memories..." Ray replied. "This is the place where we all first became the Bladebreakers..."
"Yep, we can never forget that..." Tyson agreed. "Right Kai?"
"Hm...I guess..." he replied.
"They've been close together..." Ruby thought. "It looks like Kai and Tyson-kun have been close longer than that..."
"So, who will be first to play?" Daichi asked.
"Why not start with you?" Kenny replied.
"Woot! Yeah! A good warm up will be great!"
"Don't get too optimistic about this," Tyson warned.
"Don't worry! This is a piece of cake!"
The teens sat on the benches while Daichi happily skipped his way to the dish.
"He's going to be okay, right?" Ruby asked.
"I'm sure of that..." Hilary replied. "This is the regionals..."
"You shouldn't be nervous..." Kai replied.
"Hmm...yeah...sorry..." Ruby apoligized.
"Don't worry, just concentrate on the match, okay?" Tyson said as he patted her on the shoulder.
She nodded with agreement.
"Hai...aritgatou, Tyson-kun..."
All of a sudden, a thought rushed through her mind.
"That's it! We're not going to stand here and watch Kai get hurt out there!" Ray exclaimed as he and the blonde blader stood up and walked towards the dual haired blader.
"No!"
The two bladers turned around to watch the navy haired teen sit there and grip his hands tightly onto his pants.
"Tyson, why are you not doing anything?!" Max exclaimed.
"Because...I have to keep his promise..." he replied.
"Huh?"
"I promised Kai not to interfere with the match...or else...I could never look at him in the eyes again! Can't you see he's too focused and determined to win the match?"
"Tyson..."
"Please...don't...don't make me break his promise...no...I won't..."
The two bladers sighed in defeat.
"It's okay Ty...we know how much you feel...it's just hard to take..."
"Yeah, we have to believe in him..." Ray added. "He can win this..."
"Kai...you can do this, Kai!!!" Tyson exclaimed as he stood up.
"I know..." he thought to himself. "Daijobou...I'll be okay, Takao-kun...I promise to return to you...once I win this match!"
"WOW! WHAT A QUICK MATCH!" DJ Jazzman announced. "Daichi is the winner of this match which brings the G-Revolutions to a one nothing lead!!"
The dual haired girl's eyes blinked to see the red headed shorty waving to the crowd.
"Alright! Go me!" he exclaimed. "Daichi's the man!!"
"That was fast..." Hilary said.
"Yep, what do you expect?" Kenny replied. "He's having fun..."
"Yep, I'm the winner! You're up next Ruby!" Daichi replied after he joined the G-Revolutions.
"Heh? Already?!" she exclaimed as she pointed at herself. "Why me?"
"Because, you're part of the team!" Max exclaimed.
"We're here to support you, Ruby," Ray added.
"Just don't lose..." Kai replied.
"Umm...hai..." she said nervously.
"Daijobou..." Tyson said as he patted her on the shoulder. "I know you can beat them..."
She smiled with content.
"Thanks Takao-kun..." she said before she walked up to the dish.
"Hm?" Tyson wondered. "There it goes again...this time, she called me Takao-kun..."
He turned around and looked at the Hiwatari for a brief moment.
"But Kai's...here...it can't be..."
"Why are you staring at me, Kinomiya?" the Hiwatari retorted, giving a glare at him.
"Uhh...nothing Kai...hehe..."
"You better concentrate on the match...you might learn something from her..."
"Yeah...I know...but it's just...something's wrong with this picture..."
He turned his attention to the dual haired girl.
"Nah...it's probably just me...she can't be Kai when he's right next to me..."
"It's time to win...I can do this!" Ruby thought to herself. "But that feeling..."
She took out her blade and stared at it.
"It feels a little funny not having Dranzer with me...as if it's meant for me although Kai owns her..."
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She put together her blade and launcher with a click and prepared to launch.
"No matter...I can still win..."
"3...2...1...LET IT RIP!!!" DJ Jazzman announced.
"GO GET'EM!" Ruby exclaimed as she launched her blade into the dish.
"ALRIGHT GO RUBY!!!" Max cheered.
"You can do this!" Daichi exclaimed.
"Not bad of a launch..." Kai replied.
"You really think so, Kai?" Tyson asked as he turned to the dual haired teen.
"Yeah...I give that much...but her blading style..."
"Ehhhehe...for some reason...it's like yours..."
"Yeah...I know..."
"Don't worry, she didn't do it on purpose..."
"Kinomiya...did she use Dranzer at any point?"
"Uhh...what makes you say that?!"
"Because...I was just asking..."
"Oh...no...don't worry...she didn't use her...in battle..."
The Hiwatari's eyes narrowed at the Granger for a moment before he turned his attention to Ruby.
"Attack!!!" her opponent exclaimed.
The light green blade collided into Ruby's navy blue blade and knocked it to the edge of the dish.
"You can do this..." Ruby thought. "Attack!!!"
The navy blue blade retaliated and knocked her opponent's blade back.
"She's looks uncomfortable..." Ray said.
"Yeah...I agree," Hilary replied. "She usually doesn't play this poorly...she was more aggressive when she's battling..."
"Do you think she gains more confidence when she's playing with Dranzer?" Max whispered to Ray.
"Maybe...but we can't let Kai know about it..." he whispered back.
"Ruby...are you lacking confidence because of Dranzer? Or is it Kai?" Tyson wondered to himself. "Ruby! You can't lose! I know you could play better than this!"
"Tyson-kun?" she said as she turned around to look at the navy haired teen.
"I know you can win!" he exclaimed. "I believe in you!"
"I'm glad I believed in you, Kai," Tyson said. "I knew you would win against Brooklyn..."
"Hmm...I guess..." he replied back. "It's how we are..."
"Yep...that's right..."
"Yeah...especially when you're cheering for me...with only you there, I know I can win...that's why I battle for you..." he thought to himself.
She snapped out of her deep thought and exclaimed, "GOO!!! ATTACK!!!"
With the extra power boost from her blade, her opponent's blade was knocked out of the dish.
"THE WINNER GOES TO RUBY HIKARI FROM THE G-REVOLUTIONS!" DJ Jazzman exclaimed.
"ALRIGHT RUBY!" everyone cheered.
"Great job!" Tyson exclaimed.
"Thanks...for cheering for me...everyone..." she replied.
"I guess that was good..." Kai replied.
"You really think so?"
"Yeah...just stop being nervous...there's no point of doing that..."
"Hai...arigatou for the tip, Kai..."
Chapter 14 Part II: G-Revolution Member, the Phoenix Blader
"Even though the G-Revolutions have a spot in the next round, there match must go on with the third match with the Great Kai Hiwatari in the dish!" DJ Jazzman announced as the dual haired teen walked up to the dish.
"Alright Kai! Show them who's man of the dish!" Tyson cheered.
"Hmph...this wouldn't take long..." Kai said as he took out his Dranzer blade and attached it to his launcher.
"3...2...1...LET IT RIP!!" DJ Jazzman announced as the two bladers launched their blades.
"GO DRANZER!!!" Kai shouted. "FINISH THE MATCH!!!"
Without delay, Dranzer attacked the yellow blade with a speed attack and knocked it into the air. Quickly, the blue blade disappeared and appeared again behind it.
"ATTACK!!" Kai exclaimed.
The Dranzer blade smashed into the yellow blade.
"The game's not over yet! ATTACK!!!" Kai's opponent exclaimed.
The yellow blade retaliated by disappearing into thin air. The Hiwatari had his eyes narrowed, trying to locate where the blade is.
"GO DRANZER!!!"
Without difficulty, Dranzer found her opponent on the dish and smashed into it.
"Alright Kai!" Tyson exclaimed.
"You go Kai!" Max cheered.
"Nani? How come I get the sinking feeling that Kai's Dranzer is calling out to me?" Ruby thought as she gripped her hand on her chest. "What's wrong? I feel the burning fire from within me..."
"Dranzer go!" Kai exclaimed.
"Kai's toying with his opponent..." Kenny said. "He's probably trying to have some fun..."
"But that's odd..." Tyson replied. "Kai would quickly call Dranzer...to finish his matches quickly..."
"Yeah...wonder why..."
The yellow blade attacked Dranzer and knocked her to the edge of the dish. The G-Revolutions gasped.
"KAI! DON'T LOSE!" Tyson exclaimed.
"Don't lose Kai...don't lose Dranzer..." Ruby thought as she held her hands together. "You can win, Dranzer!"
"GO DRANZER!!" Kai exclaimed. "FINAL ATTACK!!"
All of a sudden, Dranzer appeared into battle with a cry.
"ABOUT TIME!" Tyson exclaimed.
"Dranzer appeared...but why now?" Ruby thought to herself before she was struck by another memory.
"Dranzer, my dear friend...is it wrong to love someone of the same gender?" he asked the blue blade.
He soon pouted with laughter.
"What am I saying? It sounds as if I really like him..."
He stared into the sky.
"Maybe...it's just the truth...watashi daiski Kinomiya Takao...in every way..."
"THE WINNER GOES TO KAI HIWATARI OF THE G-REVOLUTIONS!!" DJ Jazzman announced.
"ALRIGHT KAI!" everyone cheered.
"You sure took your sweet time," Tyson said as the dual haired teen walked towards them.
"Whatever...let's go...the match ended..." Kai replied as he walked by him.
"There goes Kai again...Always leaving once the battle is determined..."
"Oh well..." Max said. "That's how he is..."
"Yeah..." Tyson said. "Just how Kai is..."
"Kai..." Ruby thought to herself as she watched the dual haired teen walk out of the stadium. "...Why am I getting memories about you?"
