Rei-chan: Sorry, it took awhile for me to update, cause the holidays had
been hectic. Plus we had to move. Uh, not to mention getting internet
connections took forever -.-UU. Anyways, it's Robert's turn.
Robert: *goes for the truth bowl and picks a random one* Who do you have a crush on? O.O!!!!
Johnny: O, fearless leader who do you have a crush on?
Enrique: This should be interesting to say the least.
Oliver: Cut him some slack.
Robert: *looks at all the beyblader*
Rei-chan: Well......
Robert: Um, Oliver?
Oliver: WHAT!!!!
Rei-chan: On with the fic.
Kai looked down at the unconscious boy, Ryou. He had figured out who he really was, Rei, but why had Boris done this? Was it to get back at him? No, Boris couldn't have figured out that soon. He took in the image of Ryou/Rei. The boy had silver hair that went down to his shoulder blade. His face greatly resembled a certain feline's. Compared to Kai, Ryou was some centimeters shorter. The top of his head reached Kai's eye level. He wore a long sleeved white shirt with a black shirt on top of it. This shirt had a silver, white, gold, and purple stripes going across a section of it. His pants were regular blue jeans and he wore pain black sneakers.
"Kai, what are you doing with him?" Tyson asked his team captain.
"I'm taking him back with us," Kai replied, turning away from his team mate. "He fell unconscious and you don't want to leave him out here."
"True," Tyson answered. He scratched the back of his head nervously.
"More to the point, we should learn how he acquired Driger," Kenny reasoned. "First Rei goes missing, then he shows up with Rei's bit beast. This doesn't make sense."
'He has a point,' Kai thought to himself. "Let's go." Kai had started moving while the rest of his team mates blinked before running to catch up with him.
"How do you think he got Rei's bit beast?" Tyson asked after a long period of silence. He didn't like the sound of silence at all.
"Maybe the Abbey took it from him?" Max suggested a theory.
"And then what did they do with him?" Tyson asked yet another question.
"Good point," Kenny surprisingly agreed with Tyson's question. "We have to find out what they have done to him."
"Ryou has to talk," Max said with determination. "We'll make him."
"I seriously doubt he would know anything," Kai interrupted his team mate's conversation.
"What makes you think that?" Kenny asked their cold team captain.
"The way he acts," Kai said that answer with a final tone. No one dared to ask any more questions when he used that voice.
More silence passed as the Bladebreakers headed towards their hotel room. Kai held the unconscious form of Ryou, while the others stayed back. The Chief held onto his laptop under his arm and his beyblade spare parts in another. Tyson and Max held hands as they flirted along the way. After all, they couldn't sit or stand still for more than a minute.
"What are we going to do when he wakes up?" Kenny spoke up with a disturbing inquiry.
"I'll take care of that," Kai said with authority.
"So our fearless leader has decided to take things into his own hands?" Tyson teased Kai, whom ignored that comment.
"Quit teasing him," Kenny scolded Tyson. "And grow up. This is serious here."
"Okay," Tyson grumbled, before turning his full attention to a certain blonde.
'What am I going to do with them?' Kai thought to himself as they were getting closer to their hotel room. 'More to the point, I should be worrying about him.' He glanced at the unconscious beyblader in his arms. 'No doubt Boris brainwashed him and changed his appearance, though I wondered how he changed it. It's not like he could replace Rei's entire body.'
Before Kai knew it, they were standing outside of the entrance to their hotel. Max hurried to open the door for Kai, but the cold beyblader beat him to it. After all, he had been trained in the Abbey so he was strong enough to carry the young boy and open the door at the same time. Tyson shrugged before following after their team captain. Max bounced in after his secret lover, leaving Kenny to bring up the rear end.
As soon as they entered the elevator, Ryou started stirring in his sleep. Tyson, Max, and Kenny prepared themselves, just in case the strange person attacked them. However, Ryou shifted around and went back to his sleep. For awhile, Kai had thought the young boy would have woken up. He tensed his muscles, preparing himself for what might happen. As it turned out, it was only a false alarm. Ryou wasn't waking up any time soon.
"That was a close one," Max spoke up cheerfully as he relaxed.
"You can say that again," Tyson muttered, leaning up against the elevator wall.
"You're too jumpy," Kai said nonchalantly.
"Easy for you to say, Mr. Tough Guy," Tyson retorted as he crossed his arms over his chest.
"This isn't the time to be fighting," Kenny said, trying to keep the peace.
"Okay," Tyson muttered sheepishly.
"What are you planning on doing with him?" Kenny turned their team captain.
"I told you that I will handle it," Kai said irritated.
"Rei's our team mate too," Tyson huffed. "We care about him as much as you do."
'You don't care about him as much as I do,' Kai thought. "I will talk to him first and then you can ask him as many questions you want."
"Why do you get to talk to him first?" Tyson protested against this.
"Because I grew up at the Abbey, and I know a few things you don't know," Kai retorted. The elevator door opened up just as he finished saying this statement. He walked on out without glancing back at his team mates, who quickly followed behind him.
As Kai slipped his hand into his pocket for the key, Tyson had already pulled out his key and unlocked the hotel door. "Remember what you said," the holder of Dragoon said in a serious tone. "We get to ask questions after you do."
"Yeah, yeah," Kai said, a little irritated. He waltz right through the entrance and headed for the bedroom that he shared with Kenny. Tyson and Max always shared a room, when they traveled. Kenny usually received a room to himself, until Rei mysteriously disappeared.
Once inside the room, Kai placed Ryou on his bed, before shutting the door. He didn't want the others to hear or see what he was going to do. Scanning the room, Kai located one of their chairs. He grabbed it and placed it in the center of the vacant area. Next he took the unconscious beyblader from his bed and gently placed him on the chair.
'Now, I need something to secure him so that he doesn't escape,' Kai thought to himself as he tried to think of something. 'I've got it!' He rushed off to his bag and produced a rope, which he used to tie the beyblader securely to the chair. Now all he had to do was wait for Ryou to become conscious enough for him to ask questions.
Kai sat on his bed while keeping an eye on the silver haired beyblader. Time seemed to pass slowly as the Bladebreakers team captain waited on Ryou. Thanks to his training at the Abbey, he could withstand not doing anything for hours. Sitting still like that would drive either Tyson or Max nuts. Kenny would probably be typing away on his laptop while he waited or had a chat with Dizzi over some detail.
Ryou moaned and tried to move, only to find that both his arms and legs had been restrained by a rope. He looked up and found the source of his troubles. Glaring, he sent a challenge to the cold hearted team captain. "Untie me." His voice was laced with venom.
"Not until you answer some of my questions," Kai said with a firm voice.
"......." was all Ryou's response.
"Then you won't be getting out of those any time soon," Kai said, standing up and turning to leave. He wanted the other beyblader to believe he was going to leave for awhile.
"Why should I tell a traitor like you?" Ryou narrowed his violet eyes at Kai.
"I suppose you know what Boris is doing?" Kai turned to face the silver haired beyblader.
"He's trying to take over the world," Ryou said casually as if he was talking about the weather. "By any means. He experiments on both bit beasts and humans, alike."
"Don't you see anything wrong in that?" Kai said angrily.
"Why should there be anything wrong with wanting to improve yourself?" Ryou returned.
"Those are unnatural means," Kai pointed out to the violet eyed teen. "Tala was turned into a cyborg and see what he received for that. He didn't win the match against Tyson."
"That was just an error, a set back," Ryou never wavered in his beliefs. "After all, Tala hadn't adjusted to his new body. He needed more time than he was allowed."
"And you're making excuses," Kai said. "You're covering up the truth with lies."
"How do I know you're telling the truth?" Ryou asked, keeping an eye on Kai's every movement.
"Because I have much to lose by lying and much to gain by telling the truth," Kai said very honestly and openly.
"What do you gain by telling the truth?" Ryou tilted his head in confusion.
"I lose Rei," Kai sighed as he remembered the golden eyed neko-jin, who captured his heart.
"Like I said, I don't know him," Ryou said irritated.
"That's because they brainwashed you into thinking that," Kai said, standing up and walking over towards the silver haired teen.
"They wouldn't do that to me," Ryou stood up for Boris.
"Boris turned Tala into a cyborg," Kai reminded his captive. "What makes you think, you'll be treated any different."
"Because........." Ryou's voice trailed off.
"Thought so," Kai smirked at his companion's lack of words. "He will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, even if it means sacrificing one of his own men."
"He wouldn't?" Ryou asked in a nervous voice.
"Oh, he has before," Kai growled at the thought. "He didn't even bat an eye."
'Why am I suddenly afraid? Why do I even trust that this guy is telling me the truth?' Ryou thought. "In war, people die."
"Is that what you really want?"
"Not really," Ryou sighed with regret. "What does this have to do with Rei?"
"You will find out soon enough," Kai said, hovering close to Ryou. "How long have you had Driger and how did you receive him?"
"I've had him ever since I can remember," Ryou said with confidence. He didn't want to show his captor his nervousness at him being this close. "I don't remember since I received him when I was young."
Kai abruptly stood up and turned away. He then picked up a tape with last year's finals in it, before playing it for Ryou to watch. The violet eyed teen watched anxiously as he saw the first round of the Russian tournament end in a victory for the Demolition Boys. The next beyblader was Rei. He stood there, looking completely different from his usual look. When he released his bit beast, Ryou's eyes widened as he saw the white tiger come out of the beyblade.
'It can't be the same one. It has to be another white tiger, but not many white tiger bit beasts have name Driger.' Ryou thought as he watched the tape. "Why are you showing me this?"
"Because you're Rei," Kai said bluntly.
"I can't be," Ryou insisted. "We look nothing alike."
"Looks can be deceiving," Kai reminded him. "You shouldn't judge a book by its cover."
"I know I am definitely not him," Ryou kept on insisting.
"Then why do you both have fangs and pointed ears?" Kai inquired with an amused tone.
"All neko-jins have those two characteristics," Ryou explained.
"But how many neko-jins have a white tiger bit beast named Driger," Kai asked.
"Not that many," Ryou realized.
"How long do you remember staying at the Abbey?" Kai switched the topic.
"I've been there my entire life," Ryou snapped at the bluenette.
"Is that so?" Kai asked with amusement.
"Not really," Ryou sighed and looked down. "I can only remember being there for a month." Violet eyes widened as he remembered that Rei had been missing for a month. 'There's no way that this could be a coincidence, but what if Kai is telling lies? I'm so confused.'
"I assume you're probably confused by now," Kai mentioned, to which he received a nod.
"What are you going to do with me?" Ryou asked as his captor walked towards the door.
"The others will ask you questions," Kai replied bluntly. "They'll probably ask you the same questions as I did."
"Why did you want to talk to me alone?" Ryou asked, while tilting his head.
"Because I can't lose Rei," Kai said full of regret as he opened the door and headed towards his team mates.
Tyson and Max were completely bored stiff. They played several games while waiting for Kai to finish with his inquiries. Kenny had been pretty much busy, trying to update their information and upgrade their beyblades. So far, he managed to increase Max's defense, but not by much, though the accuracy has been greatly improved.
"You can ask your questions," Kai announced to the group. "I'm finished with mine."
"Okay!" Tyson and Max cheered as they raced towards Kai's bedroom. Kenny simply stood up and picked up his lap top. He walked over there calmly. As he passed Kai, he looked at their cold team captain. Kai nodded his head as they exchanged a knowing glance. The door was shut and voices could be heard, particularly Tyson's.
'Is this their revenge?' Kai wondered as he slumped over on the sofa. 'I know they wanted to get even with me for leaving, but what connection does it have to Rei?' He paused for a second to look at a group photograph after they had won the tournament. Rei was standing next to him with his arm over Kai's shoulder. If it had been anyone else, Kai would have given it to him. 'Do they know I like Rei?'
Suddenly the telephone rang and Kai stood up to answer it. "Bladebreakers, Kai speaking."
"Kai, you have something that belongs to me," a familiar voice sounded over the line.
"I gave back Black Dranzer a long time ago, so leave me alone," Kai growled at Boris.
"I'm not talking about that bit beast," Boris scowled. "I'm talking about one of my beybladers, Ryou. You have him."
"If you want Rei back, then come and get him," Kai taunted the man.
"What does Rei have to do with this?" Boris asked, though he fully knew well.
"You know that Ryou is our Rei," Kai snorted as he conversed. "By the way, he's starting to doubt your little lies."
"I don't think so," Boris sneered. "His programming has been done by professionals."
"You should ask for your money back," Kai replied sarcastically. "They did a lousy job."
"Listen Kai just hand him over and...." Kai had hung up the phone, interrupting Boris.
"I don't follow your orders any more and neither does Rei," Kai huffed as he turned away from the phone. In less than a minute, the phone rang again. This time, Kai didn't answer it.
Rei-chan: Okay, up next is Michael from the All Starz.
Michael: Is there any insurance?
Rei-chan: Maybe.
Michael: *picks from the dare* Piss off the Demolition Boys. O.O!!!!!!!
Rei: Good luck on that.
Michael: I don't need luck. I need a miracle.
Rei-chan: Well hop to it!
Michael: *goes up to Ian* Midget.
Ian: !!!!! GRRRR!!!!
Michael: *goes up to Bryan* Is that a mask or your real face?
Bryan: *lunges at Michael*
Michael: *moves out of the way and goes up to Spencer* You and your bit beast look so much alike it's hard to tell the difference.
Spencer: *tries to strangle Michael*
Michael: *makes a hasty retreat to Tala* Why don't you battle children, they're your skill level.
Tala: *also tries to strangle Michael*
Michael: *hides behind Rei-chan*
Rei-chan: ^^U Looks like you'll need that insurance.
Michael: Ya think?
Rei-chan: Up next is Kai!
Rei: Good luck Kai.
Tyson: You're going to need it.
Robert: *goes for the truth bowl and picks a random one* Who do you have a crush on? O.O!!!!
