The Blader of Many Elements
Chapter 4 Secrets Untold
"Where'd she go?" asked a puzzled Kai.
"Maybe she's right behind you," replied a voice.
Kai spun around and starring back at him was Jasmine herself.
"How'd you do that?" asked Kai.
"Lots of training"
"Training?"
"Martial arts training. I was trained to have fast reflexes, superior fighting skills, a strong mind and body and to have no emotions"
"If you were trained to have no emotions why do you?"
"I didn't want to get rid of my emotions but in the end I ended up doing so. But something, I don't know what but something changes all that. So now I have some emotions but not all and I don't show my emotions all the time"
"Sounds like you had a tough life" said Kai.
"I did," replied Jasmine.
"Hey Jasmine can I ask you a question?" asked Kai.
"You just did but sure" Jasmine replied.
"Why do you train so hard?" asked Kai in a serious yet curious tone.
"My grandfather made me. Sure on my own I trained hard to I was a great blader. But that wasn't good enough for my grandfather he wanted me to be the best"
"I see"
"I have to go I'll see you tomorrow" said Jasmine starting to leave, but Kai grabbed her wrist before she could. She turned around and had a sad look on her face.
"What's wrong?" Kai asked gently.
"Nothing" Jasmine replied.
"Yes there is something isn't there? Something your not telling me isn't there?"
"Look Kai you'll find out when the time is right and right now it isn't. Ok?"
"Ok. See you tomorrow" Kai said letting go of her wrist.
In an instant she jumped from his balcony onto the fence that divided their two plots of land and then jumped into her backyard and went inside. 'She's really athletic and pretty' he thought to himself. 'Did I just say she's pretty? Great I'm starting to become weak. I feel like I've seen her before but I just can't say where' he thought. He stood staring at Jasmine's house for a moment then went back inside and went to sleep.
"The weather for today will be." went Jasmine's clock radio.
Jasmine's eyes flew open. She layed in bed for a moment then got up turned off her radio and went to brush her teeth. Today she wore her usual accessories except her bracelet was made of clear beads instead of green from yesterday. She wore a white sleeveless shirt and white pants. She went downstairs to eat breakfast then she went outside and started walking. 'Where am I even going?' she thought. She looked to her left and saw Kai's house or should I say mansion. 'What a huge mansion Kai has! I wish I was still at home in mine' thought Jasmine.
"Hey Jasmine!" called a voice.
Jasmine turned around and saw Kai up running to her.
"Hey Kai" said Jasmine when he caught up to her.
"Hey, Ray just called me he said we're going out for lunch downtown and told me to tell"
"Ok. Cool. So what do you want to do till then?"
"I heard a new beyblading hobby shop just opened. You wanna go there?"
"Sure. I wanna buy a new attack ring anyways"
So they walked to the hobby shop, which wasn't to far away. Jasmine bought her new attack ring, which was a pattern of white to blue then to green with a diagonal streak of red at each corner. (A/N if I never mentioned her whole blade has the same pattern as her attack ring with streaks of red). Kai just looked around. When they were done they left and headed downtown. When they arrived they were just in time. Everyone else was also arriving as well. They went inside sat down and ordered their meals. They talked about the tournament, and then their food came.
"Oh, boy this looks great!!" said Tyson starting to stuff his face with food.
"Please Tyson you're making me loose my appetite" said Kai.
"Then I'll that if you don't want it," said Tyson reaching for Kai's plate.
"Touch it and die Tyson. You touch it and you die."
"Here" said Jasmine putting her plate in front of him.
"You sure?" asked Tyson.
"Yeah. Now please excuse me," she said getting up from the table.
'I wonder where she's going' Ray wondered. Meanwhile Jasmine was thinking of a place she could go to think. 'I know the roof' she thought. Ray waited a while before excusing himself as well. He thought of a place might go and his thoughts landed directly on the roof. He climbed the many flights of stairs and when he opened the door he saw Jasmine at the other end, staring out at the rest of town. Also thinking intensely about something.
"Hey" said Ray walking up beside her.
"Oh, Hi Ray," said Jasmine looking at Ray then looking out at the town again.
"What's wrong?" Ray asked.
"Nothing" Jasmine replied trying to sound normal.
"I know something's wrong Jasmine. But you don't have to keep it inside forever, you'll have to let it out eventually"
"You want to know?"
Ray nodded.
"It started a long time ago. I was about 3 and Kai was 4. Kai and I were both forced to train in the abbey by our grandparents. That's where we first met. Everyone else was so happy they had been chosen but we weren't we stood out. That's when we became friends" Jasmine closed her eyes remembering. " We did everything together. Kai already had his bit beast Dranzer but I didn't have Element yet. But even without a bit beast I still won every battle I fought except for Kai. He was so strong with Dranzer but he wanted more power. He wanted Black Dranzer. So he trained harder than anyone in the abbey, we both did. We were such good friends. Then a year later we were still at the abbey, I had gotten my bit beast, he was very proud of me. Soon after we fell in love. But then." she trailed off. She had tears in her eyes but was forcing them back.
"Its ok to cry" said Ray giving her a hug but Jasmine still didn't cry. "You ready to continue now?" he asked letting her go. She nodded.
"But then we fell in love. But a month later I had to go home to Hong Kong. I didn't want him to be sad. But you see when I had gotten Element she told me she had granted me special powers, one was to erase memories. So that's what I did I erased myself from Kai's memory the day I left. I erased it so when he fell asleep his memories of me would be erased from his mind but not his heart and soul. A year after I went back to the abbey but I could only stay for a while so I didn't return his memories. I was to be trained privately so he couldn't see me anyways. Then I found out he had left so I to left to go back home. I had completed my training but he hadn't. When I arrived back home I had to now train in martial arts. I trained at the Shaolin Temple and Woo Dong Mountain for about 5 years. I was the only girl to accepted at Shaolin. Then I went back home when I was 11 years old. I accomplished and learned a lot at Shaolin and Woo Dong; I had perfected the technique so I started competing in Kung Fu. I won many trophies and medals. My grandfather trained me at home to make sure I didn't slack off on my techniques. He hit me when I didn't do well but he was still a good teacher with good intensions or at least that's what I thought a long time ago. My grandfather and Kai's grandfather knew each other. They intended to use us as tools for BioVolt. Then just recently I couldn't take it anymore so I left Hong Kong and came here. That's about it," said Jasmine finishing her story. She looked sad but at the same time you could tell she was mad but yet happy to have told someone everything.
"Hey, its okay, you're with us now, and we're not going to let anything happen to you" said Ray putting a comforting arm around her. "But look at the bright side."
"What bright side?" asked Jasmine.
"Think about it, you've been through so much and trained so hard. But look at yourself now, you made so many achievements and your such a talented beyblader" Ray replied.
"I guess you're right," said Jasmine smiling. "We should probably go back now"
"Yeah I guess we should," said Ray. They walked down all the stairs to the main floor of the restaurant then back to their table.
"Where did you two go off to?" asked Tyson.
"I went to do some thinking" Jasmine replied.
"Sounds like we have another Kai on our team Tyson" said Max. "Where'd you go off to Ray?"
"I had to go the bathroom and do a bit of thinking of my own" Ray replied.
"Come on we have a lot of training to do," said Kai.
"Can't we skip training for once Kai?" Tyson whined.
"Fine, whatever I have better things to do anyways" Kai said walking off.
"So do I" said Jasmine walking off in the same direction as Kai.
Jasmine walked looking at the stores around her trying to see if there were any good ones to go into. Then she spotted one across the street from her. It was a music store. Jasmine walked across the street and went in the store. As much as Jasmine loved beyblading and martial arts she also liked playing instruments. Her main instrument was the clarinet, which was the only instrument she owned anyways (she rented the rest of the instruments when she learned to play).
She had started playing when she was six years old. Surprisingly her grandfather let her do this. It was one of the only things he'd let her do because she wanted to. Other things included reading and writing stories, playing sports besides just martial arts, sing, take dance lessons and learn other instruments. She never understood why he let her do these things. He just did. Other instruments she played were the alto and tenor saxophone, flute, drums, base clarinet, electric guitar, violin, and piano. Even though she didn't own those instruments she would rent them sometimes so she could remember how to play.
She walked into the music store. She didn't know what she was looking for. She just supposed that she was seeing if anything interested her. She looked around and found many books for solo clarinet players. She looked at all of them and found four that she really like and decided to buy them after all they were on sale. ' Maybe I'll buy a few more reeds incase mine gets chipped or something' Jasmine thought. (A/N: reed, like the wooden thing you have to put on a woodwind instrument except for flute to get a sound. I'm just not sure if that's how you spell it). She paid for her things and left. ' I'll go home and play from one of my new books after all it's been a while since I've played' she thought. Her new books contained many songs, some simple and short and some a bit hard and long. But Jasmine didn't care she was just naturally good at playing the instrument.
She walked inside her rather large house and went up to her room. She took out a stand, which could be folded to become smaller so she could bring with her if she ever decided to pack her bags and go somewhere else. She then took out her clarinet case; she opened it and assembled it together. It didn't take very long to assemble surprisingly seeing there are many pieces to put together. (Including the reed a clarinet has about seven pieces. I should know after that's the instrument I play at school). When she finished she took the stand and chair outside onto her balcony (Yes she has a balcony. Her house is big like Kai's just not as big). Then she took her one of her new books and clarinet outside and closed the door. She places the book on the stand and flipped through it to see if there were any songs in particular she wanted to play. The book consisted many songs of different cultures like the French, German, English, Russian etc. she flipped through the pages and found a song she liked called Good King Wenceslas. She started playing. It was a nice song. When she finished the song she picked out other songs to play and before she knew it the sun was starting to set. She decided to put away all her things; she had played enough for now. Just as she finished putting everything the phone rang.
"Hello?" she said answering the telephone.
"Hi Jasmine" said Kai's voice.
"Oh, Hey Kai what's up?" she asked.
"The team is going out to eat for dinner tonight at that restaurant by that beyblading hobby shop. You don't have to dress in formal wear and Mr. Dickinson is treating us."
"Great. I'll meet you guys there"
"No."
"What? Why?" Jasmine asked puzzled.
"I said no. There's some stuff I want to talk to you about that I may never get the chance to do. I'll meet you in front of your house in ten minutes."
"Okay, great. See you then"
"See you" they both hung up.
Jasmine went back to her room. She looked at the mirror to make sure she looked all right. She brushed her hair a bit then left to go meet Kai. 'I wonder what he wants to talk about' she wondered. She went outside to find Kai already standing there waiting for her.
"Hey Kai" she said.
"Hi" he said to her in his usual tone.
"What did you want to talk to me about?" she asked.
"Well it's about bit beasts special powers"
"What about them?"
"I was wondering."
"What?"
"If you could help me find out Dranzer's special power." Kai said finally.
"Sure" replied Jasmine rather surprised that Kai would actually ask for help.
"Really?!" he said.
"Of course" she said flashing him a smile.
'Why do I feel like I've known her before? I mean I've only just met her a few days ago' Kai thought.
"What are you thinking about Kai?" Jasmine asked.
"Nothing" he lied.
"I know you're thinking intently about something. I can tell when I look at you"
"Its just I feel like I've known you before for a long time, but I've only just met you a few days ago. You know what I mean?"
"Yeah"
"I feel like I've known you for so long but I couldn't have. Am I right?"
"You never know. We might have met at some point in the past"
Kai was confused about what Jasmine had just said, but chose not to say anything. In a few minutes they were at the restaurant. They went inside and found Ray was already there.
"Hey Ray" said Jasmine.
"Hi Jasmine, Kai" said Ray.
"How long have you been waiting?" she asked as she and Kai sat down.
"Not long I only got here a few minutes ago" Ray replied. "What were you up to today?"
"I just looked around a few stores then went home. Then Kai called me and told me about dinner and that's about it" she said. She didn't want to tell anybody about her passion and talent for music just yet. "What about you?"
"I just trained for a while then hung out with Tyson, Max and Kenny for a while then went home" Ray replied.
Kai could tell that Jasmine had told the truth, but not the entire truth. He made a mental note to talk to her about that later. Just then the rest of the Bladebreakers walked through the doors and to their table.
"Hey guys," said Max as the rest of them sat down.
"What took you so long?" asked Kai.
"Well Tyson kinda fell asleep earlier and we couldn't get him to wake up," replied Kenny.
"Hey don't blame me" said Tyson.
"Well it was your fault," said Jasmine in a more serious tone of voice. Everybody looked at her, even Kai. She wasn't usually the one say something like that only Kai was like that.
"What?" she said.
"What you just said. Its something Kai would say" said Tyson. Kai shot him a death glare. "No offence Kai"
Jasmine said nothing. She just laughed a bit then returned to her normal sitting position with her arms and legs crossed with a grin on her face. She looked around the table and everybody (yes even Kai) stared at her wide- eyed in shock about what just happened. When they first met Jasmine she was a very cheerful girl but now they were getting to know the true Jasmine, which was something, they didn't know. Then a waitress came by and asked them if they were ready to order. They ordered their food and talked about the tournament and dance coming up soon. Throughout the whole night Jasmine was a lot quieter than usually. She barely said anything and was acting a lot like Kai. Nobody knew why she was acting like this but chose not to say anything. After dinner they said their goodbyes and walked home. Kai and Jasmine headed into the same direction.
"Jasmine why did you act the way you did tonight?" asked Kai.
"Because that's how I usually am," she replied.
"But you weren't like that when you first came"
"I know. I don't really know why I acted the way I did I just did. I didn't really care I had other things on my mind when I first came"
"Like what?"
"Now is not the best time for you to know. But when it is you'll find out" she said looking up at the sky. "I hope you understand"
"I do. So I guess you're not going to tell me what you really did today are you?"
"How did you know?"
"I could tell"
"Well my answer is no I'm not going to tell you but you will find out in the near future," said Jasmine.
Kai knew what she meant by that. It meant she knew he was going to watch her again from his balcony. 'But how did she know?' thought Kai. 'Oh, well I'll just have to find out later'. They soon reached Jasmine's house. They said goodbye and she went inside and Kai walked home.
Inside her house Jasmine was getting her music stuff ready on her balcony. She started playing some warm ups then tried songs from one of her new books. Soon after Kai got home. When he went up to his room he heard music but didn't know where it was coming from. He went onto his balcony and saw Jasmine playing the clarinet.
'She's really good' he thought.
'She looks so beautiful under the moon light and so calm and peaceful when she plays'
'Wait did I just say she's beautiful???'
'Great Kai you're talking to yourself again'
* You know you love her * said a voice in his head.
'No I don't!'
* If that's what you want to believe its fine with me *
'Fine, whatever just goes away!'
* Suit yourself but just keep in mind I am you. You know * the voice left.
'Finally that stupid voice is gone'
He watched her for a while she played beautifully. Then she stopped and started putting away her things. She went inside to put everything down. Kai thought she was done so he started to go back inside. Just then Jasmine appeared next to him.
"Hey Kai" she said.
"Hey" he said turning around.
"Now you know what I was doing?"
"Yeah, but I never knew that you played clarinet"
"You don't know a lot of things about me. And plus you never asked"
They talked about Jasmine's past for a while just not the part at the abbey. Then they talked about Kai's. Soon after Jasmine left. They had agreed for Jasmine to go to Kai's house tomorrow to help him with Dranzer's special power.
That's the end of this chapter. Oh yeah for all of you that want to know when Kai's gonna get his memory back it wont be till probably till chapter seven or eight but I'm not sure. But anyways please review!!!(

"My grandfather made me. Sure on my own I trained hard to I was a great blader. But that wasn't good enough for my grandfather he wanted me to be the best"
"I see"
"I have to go I'll see you tomorrow" said Jasmine starting to leave, but Kai grabbed her wrist before she could. She turned around and had a sad look on her face.
"What's wrong?" Kai asked gently.

So they walked to the hobby shop, which wasn't to far away. Jasmine bought her new attack ring, which was a pattern of white to blue then to green with a diagonal streak of red at each corner.

"Here" said Jasmine putting her plate in front of him.
"You sure?" asked Tyson.
"Yeah. Now please excuse me," she said getting up from the table.
'I wonder where she's going' Ray wondered. Meanwhile Jasmine was thinking of a place she could go to think. 'I know the roof' she thought. Ray waited a while before excusing himself as well. He thought of a place might go and his thoughts landed directly on the roof. He climbed the many flights of stairs and when he opened the door he saw Jasmine at the other end, staring out at the rest of town. Also thinking intensely about something.

"Great. I'll meet you guys there"
"No."
"What? Why?" Jasmine asked puzzled.
"I said no. There's some stuff I want to talk to you about that I may never get the chance to do. I'll meet you in front of your house in ten minutes."
"Okay, great. See you then"

"Hey Kai" she said.
"Hi" he said to her in his usual tone.
"What did you want to talk to me about?" she asked.
"Well it's about bit beasts special powers"
"What about them?"
"I was wondering."
"What?"
"If you could help me find out Dranzer's special power." Kai said finally.
"Sure" replied Jasmine rather surprised that Kai would actually ask for help.
"Really?!" he said.
"Of course" she said flashing him a smile.
'Why do I feel like I've known her before? I mean I've only just met her a few days ago' Kai thought.
"What are you thinking about Kai?" Jasmine asked.
"Nothing" he lied.
"I know you're thinking intently about something. I can tell when I look at you"
"Its just I feel like I've known you before for a long time, but I've only just met you a few days ago. You know what I mean?"
"Yeah"
"I feel like I've known you for so long but I couldn't have. Am I right?"
"You never know. We might have met at some point in the past"
Kai was confused about what Jasmine had just said, but chose not to say anything. In a few minutes they were at the restaurant. They went inside and found Ray was already there.
"Hey Ray" said Jasmine.
"Hi Jasmine, Kai" said Ray.
"How long have you been waiting?" she asked as she and Kai sat down.
"Not long I only got here a few minutes ago" Ray replied. "What were you up to today?"
"I just looked around a few stores then went home. Then Kai called me and told me about dinner and that's about it" she said. She didn't want to tell anybody about her passion and talent for music just yet. "What about you?"
"I just trained for a while then hung out with Tyson, Max and Kenny for a while then went home" Ray replied.
Kai could tell that Jasmine had told the truth, but not the entire truth. He made a mental note to talk to her about that later. Just then the rest of the Bladebreakers walked through the doors and to their table.
"Hey guys," said Max as the rest of them sat down.
"What took you so long?" asked Kai.
"Well Tyson kinda fell asleep earlier and we couldn't get him to wake up," replied Kenny.
"Hey don't blame me" said Tyson.
"Well it was your fault," said Jasmine in a more serious tone of voice. Everybody looked at her, even Kai. She wasn't usually the one say something like that only Kai was like that.
"What?" she said.
"What you just said. Its something Kai would say" said Tyson. Kai shot him a death glare. "No offence Kai"
Jasmine said nothing. She just laughed a bit then returned to her normal sitting position with her arms and legs crossed with a grin on her face. She looked around the table and everybody (yes even Kai) stared at her wide- eyed in shock about what just happened. When they first met Jasmine she was a very cheerful girl but now they were getting to know the true Jasmine, which was something, they didn't know. Then a waitress came by and asked them if they were ready to order. They ordered their food and talked about the tournament and dance coming up soon. Throughout the whole night Jasmine was a lot quieter than usually. She barely said anything and was acting a lot like Kai. Nobody knew why she was acting like this but chose not to say anything. After dinner they said their goodbyes and walked home. Kai and Jasmine headed into the same direction.
"Jasmine why did you act the way you did tonight?" asked Kai.
"Because that's how I usually am," she replied.
"But you weren't like that when you first came"
"I know. I don't really know why I acted the way I did I just did. I didn't really care I had other things on my mind when I first came"
"Like what?"
"Now is not the best time for you to know. But when it is you'll find out" she said looking up at the sky. "I hope you understand"
"I do. So I guess you're not going to tell me what you really did today are you?"
"How did you know?"
"I could tell"
"Well my answer is no I'm not going to tell you but you will find out in the near future," said Jasmine.
Kai knew what she meant by that. It meant she knew he was going to watch her again from his balcony. 'But how did she know?' thought Kai. 'Oh, well I'll just have to find out later'. They soon reached Jasmine's house. They said goodbye and she went inside and Kai walked home.
Inside her house Jasmine was getting her music stuff ready on her balcony. She started playing some warm ups then tried songs from one of her new books. Soon after Kai got home. When he went up to his room he heard music but didn't know where it was coming from. He went onto his balcony and saw Jasmine playing the clarinet.
'She's really good' he thought.
'She looks so beautiful under the moon light and so calm and peaceful when she plays'
'Wait did I just say she's beautiful???'
'Great Kai you're talking to yourself again'
* You know you love her * said a voice in his head.
'No I don't!'
* If that's what you want to believe its fine with me *
'Fine, whatever just goes away!'
* Suit yourself but just keep in mind I am you. You know * the voice left.
'Finally that stupid voice is gone'
He watched her for a while she played beautifully. Then she stopped and started putting away her things. She went inside to put everything down. Kai thought she was done so he started to go back inside. Just then Jasmine appeared next to him.
"Hey Kai" she said.
"Hey" he said turning around.
"Now you know what I was doing?"
"Yeah, but I never knew that you played clarinet"
"You don't know a lot of things about me. And plus you never asked"
They talked about Jasmine's past for a while just not the part at the abbey. Then they talked about Kai's. Soon after Jasmine left. They had agreed for Jasmine to go to Kai's house tomorrow to help him with Dranzer's special power.
That's the end of this chapter. Oh yeah for all of you that want to know when Kai's gonna get his memory back it wont be till probably till chapter seven or eight but I'm not sure. But anyways please review!!!(
