'Thoughts...'
"Speaking..."
--Flashbacks--
More Then A Change
Ray drug his feet as he walked towards Tyson's room where he hoped to find everyone else. He didn't feel like explaining everything to the guys, it just didn't feel right. It was up to Kai to tell them, he didn't have a right to tell them. 'But he needs help. I can't just forget about that. I wouldn't be a good friend if I let him get hurt.' Ray thought sorrowfully.
He reached Tyson's door and went straight in. He seen a clear walked way through the clothes on the ground that lead to everyone on Tyson's full sized bed. Ray sighed and shut the door behind him. He felt everyone staring at him on his walk through the room. He stood next to the bed, with unfocused eyes he looked at Tyson, Kenny, then Max.
"Guys, I have things to tell you." Ray swallowed hard. "Kenny, I need you to get Dizzi out, we'll need her help in this too." Ray saw Kenny hop off the bed and reached under the bed for his laptop.
"Start from the beginning Ray." Tyson urged.
Ray nodded and sat on the bed, facing the others with his legs indian style. He took a shaky breath. "What you heard today is to be kept between only us. This is a secret that I was never to tell anyone, but because of recent events you guys need to know. Are you clear that not a single word of this is to be said to anyone?" Ray looked around and received nods from everyone. "All right."
--Flashback--
Kai stared wide eyed at the boy that had just opened the door. He heard Ray mutter stuff about him being a girl and that it wasn't possible. Kai jumped up from the bed in a quick motion, grabbed Ray and threw him into the room, and slammed the door shut. She held her back against the door and watched Ray with wide eyes.
Ray had hit the floor when Kai had pulled him in. He grumbled and collected himself off the ground and searched for Kai. She wasn't on the bed so he turned around and met her cherry red eyes. He was about to open his mouth to say something when Kai staked up to him and shoved him to sit on the bed. Ray did with a yelp of surprise.
"Okay, what the hell did you think you were doing? I told you to go away and you couldn't even do that! Who gave you the right to get another key to get into MY room?" Kai yelled red faced at Ray.
"Hey, I was worried about you. I wanted to see if you were okay!" Ray snapped.
"Well you shouldn't have!" Kai snarled. She walked around the bed and plopped down by the pillows. She sighed. "Now that you see what I am, I need to explain."
"That would be useful." Ray nodded.
Kai glared. "Well, first thing first. My name is Kaiko when I'm a girl but don't get to used to it. I do stay like this long. Mostly just twenty-four hours. Secondly, this is told to no one. NO ONE GOT IT?" She glared at him with fire behind her cherry eyes.
Ray gulped and nodded.
"Good." She took another deep breath. "When I was about four years old I had to go live with my Grandfather. My parents had died in an explosion at the lab they were working at. When I arrived at my Grandfathers, the social worker gave me a brown packed that held something. Being a kid I didn't know what and immediately opened it, thinking it might be some kind of present from my parents. What I found was Dranzer. I didn't know it at the time, but I hid it from my Grandfather, I just knew I had too."
"A week later, my Grandfather started my... training. He wanted me to become the best blader there was when I got older. He made me train day in and day out. I never told him about Dranzer until one day when the bit piece fell out of my pocket. My Grandfather... scolded me for keeping it a secret and said I was to practice with Dranzer from then on out. Little did I know the changes that I would face."
"Dranzer was a arrogant, snobbish, brat before I began to train with her. We talked together about what we expected of each other and she told me flat out, "I expect you to be a girl." She refused to work with a "low-class male that didn't know what he was doing when a girl can learn faster than a male ever could" and from that moment on, I became Kaiko. These," Kaiko pointed to her face, "are to symbolize who I am. Claws for a girl and Triangle for a boy. She did let me stay the same personality wise though, I wasn't a girl in the sense of.... emotions to put it vaguely."
"Three years later, just as I turned fourteen, Dranzer saw my abilities as a male and not just as a female. She applauded them and I finally earned her respect to blade as a male and not as a female. Unfortunately, in situations like now, Dranzer feels the need to torment me by changing me into Kaiko." Kaiko sighed and gazed at her pillow, refusing to talk to Ray further.
"Errr.... wow..... so, you're really a girl?" Ray asked stupidly.
"RAY!" Kaiko slammed a pillow on his head.
--End Flashback--
"And that's how it happened. Kai is Kaiko and Kaiko is Kai. It's hard to understand sometimes, let alone accept, but it is who he is." Ray picked at his pant legs. He just couldn't believe how interesting they seemed to look at them moment. Very interesting indeed.
"So," Tyson began, "you're saying that Kai, our Kai that we know, the King of Ice, the Lord of the Sour-pants, the party-pooper, is Kaiko? The cute girl with the tiger claws on her face and the cherry red eyes and pretty blue hair?" Tyson was getting close to whining.
"Yes and no." Ray looked up at Tyson, meeting his eyes. "Right now Kaiko is in my room with half red hair and yellow eyes. Since Kai's Grandfather broke the bit piece, Dranzer is now in Kaiko's body and Kai is in his own. They touched and now Kaiko is taking Kai's memories and his sanity and Kai is going to die if he doesn't get them back!" Ray choked on his desperate words. He held his face in his hands, trying to subdue the tears that pricked at the edges of his eyes.
Tyson, knowing that Ray wouldn't be able to say anything else, grabbed Max and Kenny. "Did Dizzi hear all that?"
"Of course I did Tyson!" Dizzi hollered.
"Good. Figure out why. How we can help." Tyson commanded.
"Right on it! Let's do it Kenny!"
"Right!" Kenny took Dizzi down to the ground and began typing furiously.
Max kept silent, as did Tyson. Max looked rather nervous. He glanced at Tyson and blushed. 'I can't believe that Kaiko IS Kai and I thought she was cute! Oh my gosh! It's so embarrassing!'
Tyson saw Max blushing. For a minute he couldn't know why, and his thoughts drifted. He never knew, but his thoughts about Kaiko came back. 'Cute... I thought Kai was cute. Gosh what the hell was I thinking?' Tyson blushed along with Max.
**--**--**
Ishida gave a hearty laugh as he pulled up a thick, heavy chain from a metal crate. He tugged on the silver links and gave a grunt of effort before ripping one up. He dropped it on the floor and reached back in the crate for a similar chain. His well built body tensed and ripped up the chain before letting it fall. Ishida wiped his calloused hands on his faded blue pants. Perfect teeth showed through a sinister smile and brown eyes gleamed in delight. Ishida flung his short black hair out of his eyes and licked his lips.
'This event will be the most fun I've had in years. Young Kai will be so pleased to see everyone.' Ishida gave a gruesome chuckle before reaching down and grabbing each chain. He walked to a steel table in another room and flung them on the top. There, two other men grinned.
"Getting ready so soon Ishida?" A man with dirty blonde hair and sea green eyes asked. The man's body tensed and reached out to finger the chain in his scared hands. "Isn't it a little early?"
"It's never to early Kamiya. Not for Hiwatari that is." Ishida growled. He didn't like others to touch his toys, they were his and no one ever touched them.
"Calm down Ishida." The man next to Kamiya snarled. His piercing grey eyes and his short slicked back blonde hair radiated a tone of 'don't shit with me.' A glare was directed toward Kamiya before speaking again. "Details Ishida."
"Hiwatari called. We're to 'help' his young grandson, in the best, the best, possible way. All of us." Ishida gave a nasty smirk. "Now, Kamiya," Ishida glanced at the modern sized man, "it's your job to bring the kid to us. He's at this address." Ishida pulled out a piece of yellow paper and set down on the table. "You get him out and to us." Ishida glanced at the other. "And you, Kruger, you and I are to be waiting. I'll restrain and then we all work on him."
Kruger, leaned on the steel desk with his arms across his chest. His diminutive size was unusual considering he was a wanted man in Russia, Australia, thirty-seven of the American states, Brazil, England, and, of course, Japan. Contrary to his size, he was one of the most notorious killers and only the best got him. He usually refused to work with Ishida and Kamiya on assignments, but he knew of this Hiwatari man. Hiwatari himself had once set him up with a job. It was really simple, but at the time he himself had just begun his life as a criminal.
Kruger gave a nasty smirk. He could remember the job very well. It was the first job that had anything to do with a public display of violence, and he had gotten away with it with not even a glance toward him. Although the planning had been more difficult then he expected, but it was well worth it. He saw the look of pure terror on that woman's face before she died, that blood curdling scream just as the car hit, and it was so sweet. He could remember Hiwatari telling him that the couple had a child but the child was not to be harmed. This he didn't understand but he never questioned his employer. Kruger shook his head, it didn't matter now though. That was the past and the future looked so much more sweet.
**--**--**
It had been a few hours before Kenny and Dizzi cried out in triumph. Immediately all eyes went to the computer genius. No one spoke, no one moved, they were all waiting. Kenny grabbed his wrist in an attempt to massage out a cramp before getting ready to tell his theory. Kenny gazed at the people in the room and turned the laptop around to let Dizzi talk. "Okay, this is what we have. It's the most reasonable answer we could come up with so don't shoot it down just yet." He got a nod from everyone.
"Well, first off, we've established the whole Kai and Kaiko issue." Dizzi reasoned. "Kenny and I figured that since Dranzer is a girl bit beast, she had an issue about males being the weaker species. I've done a background check on Dranzer's life and realized that Dranzer was a phoenix god worshiped by an Amazon group many, many years before our time. Of course, this provoked her to believe her that men were not needed and they were useless. She had then never been used by a man nor would she deal with one. Her past master was a woman, only ninety years ago. She was the strongest woman Dranzer knew but when she passed away, the bit piece was handed down in the family to Kai's father. From there, Kai's father was never a blader so it was saved until Kai became old enough to use it if he chose or until his father died. Unfortunately the latter was the case." Dizzi stopped and took a deep breath.
"Now that the past is taken care of, it's time for the present. Why Kai and Kaiko... errrr, Dranzer, are not one anymore. I believe it was because of the bit piece that Hiwatari broke." Dizzi let pure disdain seep through at the sound of Hiwatari's name. She was furious with the mere HUMAN! He didn't have a right to touch another of his kind let alone a spirit!
"Once the bit piece broke," she began again calmly, "Kai split. Kai never did really change fully with each body for so therefore there was a need for a second identity to take control of the second body. That's where Dranzer comes in. She was pulled into Kaiko mind taking Kai's mind with her. They are sharing a mind so too speak." Dizzi summarized. "I believe that every time Kaiko... errrr... Dranzer touches Kai, his sanity and memories are transfer into her." Dizzi whispered.
"Holy fu-" Tyson was cut off as a scream reverberated throughout the house.
