Hello, Ami here! Sorry I didn't update last night. I had to go to a
Christmas concert by the Salvation Army. It was a great concert, and I got
home at 11:30. Its 6:06 now... GOD! I need more sleep! Okay, I should be
alright for a little while. Hope you like the chapter. Bye^_^
Off to See the BladeBreakers
'I do NOT know how she convinced me into this!' Tyson thought angrily on the plane. They were both going to Japan to host a party that Aretha had planned out for them. 'I just hope that the guys don't see me at the party...' Tyson looked out the window and saw all the clouds. He wanted to draw them... 'But of course, there is the no drawing rule starting an hour before we leave...' He sighed. He hated this day already.
"So," he said, trying to start conversation. "Do you have any idea how much my day has darkened? 'Cause I just know that you don't"
"Darkened?" She said, looking at him. "What do you mean by darkened?"
"I mean spoiled," He corrected himself. "Uneventful. Boring."
"Oh," said Mariah, tilting her head to one side like a kitten. "But you'll be able to see the other BladeBreakers. Don't you want to see them?"
He sighed, should he tell her? Why should he tell her, he hasn't even told his mother? Then again, she did tell him about Ray...
"Because," he started, not sure what to say. "I don't want them to know that I'm a prince. I don't want them to know I'm different... When you're different, you're noticed, and when you're noticed, you never get a second to yourself..."
"Oh," she said smiling. "Okay. That's reasonable enough."
'What in the world is she talking about? Reasonably enough, the only way she'd say that was if she had something to do with...' Tyson's face paled at that thought. 'Well, I've got to know.'
"Mariah," he started. "Did you have anything to do with us going to Japan?" She looked nervous, as if hiding something. Finally, she nodded. "Okay, just wondering," with that, Tyson looked out of the window. Neither one of them said anything during the rest of the flight.
When they finally got there, they had to walk to Tyson's Grandpa's place, 'because he forgot to pick them up.
'That's okay,' he thought. 'More time to think. More time to talk to Mariah.' That's when a worst case scenario happened. The BladeBreakers came into view. 'Oh great! They're probable going to the park to Beyblade a bit before upgrading their blades!' he sighed, no way to prevent meeting them. He could see Mariah looking around for a hiding place, but knew that she wouldn't find one... 'This day keeps getting worse and worse...'
"Tyson!" Max hollered when he saw them. Both Mariah and Tyson winched. "We've missed you SO much! You have to tell us all about it! Come on! We're going to the park to Beyblade!"
"Sorry, can't," Tyson said in his mock cheerful tone. He saw Max's face fall. He also saw Ray eyeing up Mariah. "You see, when I was visiting my mum, I met Mariah, who had moved in with her aunt nearby. I asked her to come to Japan with me so she could meet all of you again." He smiled a fake smile. 'How I do this, I shall never know,' he thought as they all started talking at once. Except for Kai. Kai knew about him, and actually respects him. Tyson sent him a plea for help with his eyes, hoping he'd get the message. He always does.
"Let's go," he suddenly snapped. "We still have to change. And Tyson has a guest. No matter how much any of us wants to drag him off to train, he has a guest to entertain," he looked at then all. "Now, let's go!" they all said their good byes, and Tyson mouthed 'I owe you one' to Kai. He mouthed 'you owe me five, back, amusement dancing in his eyes. Finally, they were gone.
"Hmm..." Tyson thought aloud. "What can I do to pay back Kai five times?"
"Whatever do you mean YOUR highness," Mariah said teasingly.
"Well, I forgot to tell you that Kai found out about me in the Russian tournament," Tyson stated, handing her his arm to take. She nestled her hand by his elbow, and nodded for him to continue. "You see, after he stole all your Bit Beasts, I started to drop my mask a little. The incident on the ice was when I my eyes shone with my true emotions, instead of the fake cheerfulness I have mastered." Tyson's house came into view. "So, how do you feel about Ray being here?" He saw the way Mariah looked down when he said this, so he gave her hand a little squeeze.
"I'll have to deal with Ray myself," she said, looking him in the eye. "If you can deal with a stampede of girls that want to marry you, then I can deal with one guy that wants to date me."
"Just make sure you don't ask him to the party," Tyson said in mock hurt. "Because I don't want to walk alone in the dark, all the way down that long, long hall..." he pouted, and she laughed.
"Don't worry," she said. "I'll make sure my schedule is free so that I can walk you down the hall." Tyson yelled 'YAY!' and she started laughing even more...
