Guess who's back ;) Hehehe. Well this is the sequel to 'Fighting Spirits'
(Sorry it took so long). I had a lot of people ask for it, and some people
even e-mailed me really some great ideas, unfortunately I can't tell you
all what it is yet, but the e-mailers know ;) So please don't tell.
If you just started reading this then make sure you have read 'Fighting Spirits' because some of the stuff I will write will probably fly right over your head if you don't. So okay, let's start writing. I haven't gotten everything figured out yet but I should be good for a while, and I will also try and update once a week like I did before but no guarantees because I got exams coming up when I go back to school *sulks*. But after exams :) that's different. Oh well, don't mind me and enjoy the story.

~ Chapter 1: Reunited ~
Tyson was scurrying around at home trying to get everything set up. You see the Blade Breakers were going to be reunited. It had only been a few days since Tyson, Max, and Kenny left China, but he was so excited. Ray had stayed behind to spend some time at home, and Kai and Sora had returned before anyone.
"Hey m'man, what's shakin?" Asked Mr. Kinomiya as he saw Tyson cleaning. He went over and placed his hand over Tyson's forehead. "You don't have a fever little dude, so what's up?"
"I told you grandpa. The Blade Breakers are coming over." Informed Tyson as he got the feather duster and started dusting the furniture.
"But its only been about three days little dude." But Tyson had ignored him and then asked.
"Oh grandpa, I forgot to ask. Could you cook us something to eat?" Tyson asked as he grabbed a can of pledge, not noticing the very evil smirk that had spread across Mr. Kinomiya's face. "I don't have time, and ordering in will take to long." He said while wiping the dust of the television set.
"Sure thing home boy." He said running to the kitchen.
*Ding-dong*
"COMING!" Tyson screamed running to the door.
"Wait little dude! Maybe you should-"
"Don't worry grandpa!" Tyson cut him off as he pulled the door open. "MAX!!!" Tyson screamed hugging his friend. "Come in!" Tyson said ushering him in the clean house, as Max was having a hysterical fit. "What's wrong?" He asked looking around. Max couldn't talk but managed to point at Tyson's clothes, which Tyson's eyes followed. "ACK!!!" He screamed as he pulled off a pretty pink frilly apron.
"I tried to warn you little dude." Came Mr. Kinomiya's laughter from the kitchen.
"WARN LOUDER!!!" Tyson screamed as he put on his usually red jacket over his yellow t-shirt.
"Anyways are the others here yet?" Max asked while still chuckling.
"Nope and I don't even know if they will show up. Only you and Chief gave me the okay."
"Did you call Sora?"
"Yeah, but she said she'd see what she could do. And Kai...I doubt that he will show."
"You don't know that?"
"Yeah, I do. I called him and told him and he screamed at me for interrupting him while he was training and hung up saying that he wouldn't be caught dead here."
"Oh!" Max laughed. "What about Ray?"
"I called him up in China and invited him over. I told he could stay at my house if he came down, and he said that he would try and find a plane ticket here."
*Ding-dong*
Tyson walked over to the door and opened it up to find Kenny.
"Hey guys!" He said pleased to see his friends.
"Hiya Chief! How are you?" Max said.
"Make any good blades lately?" Tyson asked.
"What about the computer?" Came a voice. Everyone sighed.
"Hi Dizzi." Both Max and Tyson said in unison.
"Hmph, that didn't sound very genuine."
*CRASH*
"What was that?" Kenny asked looking in to the house, just as Mr. Kinomiya peek around the corner with tomato sauce all over him.
"He he, just a little accident. No worries little dudes." He said giving them a peace sigh with his fingers and then returned to the kitchen.
"We should have ordered pizza." Tyson said smacking himself in the forehead. "Oh well, come in!" He said pushing everyone in shutting the door behind him.
"Wow Tyson! This place is really clean, and smells really nice." Kenny said looking at the room.
"He he, I know!"
"Where's your blade Tyson? I want to battle it with Draceil."
"Ha, you think you can beat me and Bahumut?" Tyson laughed. (AN: I know, I know. Bahumut is a summon from the Final Fantasy games, but I couldn't think of anything else ^^; )
"Max, give up! Bahumut is the ULTIMATE blade. Draceil can't beat it." Kenny said as he recalled the past battles.
"Oh come on Chief! I got to try don't I?"
"I s'pose!" Kenny shrugged
"He he, okay Tyson. Let's go!"
"I have to get it from my room." He said taking off for it. Both Max and Kenny followed. When Tyson went to open it, he couldn't.
"What's wrong?" Max asked wondering why it won't open. "Is it locked?"
"No! It's the damn boxes; they fell over again that's all. Hold on I'll get it." He said as he started pushing and ramming the door with all his might. He finally got it open enough so that they could squeeze in.
"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED?" Kenny asked as he looked in horror around the room.
"He he. I kinda never got around to cleaning this room." Tyson said nervously while scratching the back of his head.
"For what? The whole thirteen years of your life?" Max asked looking around. There were clothes everywhere, even a pair of boxers hanging from the ceiling fan. The dresser was nowhere to be found, the bed was hard to identify, and not even Tyson knew the color of his carpet. Tyson ignored there comments and started to walk through the mess towards his bed.
"Ummmm, where did I put Bahumut to?" He thought scratching his head once again.
"You don't know where the most powerful blade in the world is?" Kenny asked.
"No! Of course I know where it is... just not at the moment. Don't worry I'll find it. Just give me a hand." Max and Kenny nodded and started to rummage through everything.
"Ewwww Tyson! What is this? It stinks!" Max said plugging his nose and lifting up something that seemed green and moldy.
"Oh that's where it went. That was dinner some time before the tournaments." Tyson laughed.
"That's disgusting!" Max started urging from the smell and chucked it out the window.
"Hey that was still edible." Tyson pouted.
"EWWWWW!!!" Came a voice from below the window. All the boys froze, deciding if they should go to the window or not to see what happened. Max started to struggle to get to the window.
"Don't Max." Tyson hissed. "It's probably the witch next door. If she finds out it's us, we're doomed." He said trying to convince Max. However Max ignored him and when he got to the window and looked out he saw Ray.
"HEY RAY! UP HERE!" Max yelled waving. Ray looked up and waved back. He was lucky since the green stuff just missed him.
"Come down and give me a hand with this stuff." Ray yelled back pointing to all the bags he had. Max headed down while Tyson and Kenny continued their search.
"Hey Ray! Good to see you!" Max said taking some of Ray's stuff and took him inside.
"Sure is. Who's here?"
"Everyone except Sora and Kai." Max said. "HEY MR. KINOMIYA! WHERE IS RAY SLEEPING?"
"NEXT DOOR TO TYSON!"
"Come on!"
"I could just sleep on the floor in Tyson's room or something you know." Ray said thinking that he might be taking someone's bed. Max started laughing hysterically.
"You're welcome to try!"
They dropped off Ray's bags in the room next to Tyson's and then went in to Tyson's room where Tyson and Kenny were still searching.
"MY GOD!" Ray said looking around the room. Tyson looked up, halting his search.
"Hey Ray! What's wrong?" Tyson asked.
"When did World War Three start?" Everyone started laughing and Tyson who threw a nearby shirt at him.
"Bombs away!" He laughed and then continued searching.
"What are you looking for?"
"Tyson lost Bahumut." Kenny said who also continued searching.
"I didn't LOSE Bahumut. I just misplaced him, that's all." Everyone sighed and Max and Ray joined in on the search.
"So is Sora and Kai coming?" Ray asked as he looked under a shirt.
"I don't know. Hey I already looked there. Look under my bed."
"Sorry, I'm not that brave." Ray said continuing to look through the area he was in, as the others laughed.
"HA! HA! Aren't we funny?"
"You said you looked here right?" Ray asked and Tyson nodded. "Well then I guess this isn't it." He said holding up Bahumut.
"Oppps! He he!" Tyson stifled a laugh as he took his blade.
"DINNER!" Came Mr. Kinomiya's voice from downstairs. Tyson was up and gone.
"Guess our battle will have to wait." Max said with a shrug and left with the others.
Once downstairs, the three saw a hungry Tyson at the table waiting for dinner. The three sat down as well and Tyson started yelling.
"THEY'RE HERE! BRING IN THE FOOD!"
"Hold yer horses little dude." Mr. Kinomiya said bringing out several bowls and a large boiler of something.
"Oh no!" Tyson stared in fear.
"What? What is it?" The others ask curiously.
"Two alarm chili!" Mr. Kinomiya said serving up the bowls.
"Yum, I love chili. What's wrong with it? You like chili, I've seen you eat it." Ray said.
"I know, but...*that* is no two alarm." Tyson said pointing at his boiler.
"Ahhh don't be so foolish and eat it up." Mr. Kinomiya said and then acted like he was going to cry when he said, "You asked me to cook for you and your friends, so I end up slaving over a stove, and now you won't eat it."
"Tyson it can't be that hot." Max said feeling kinda sorry and started spooning up some.
"I wouldn't do that." Tyson said but Max put it in his mouth, and Mr. Kinomiya brust out laughing.
"I told you so." Tyson said after he saw Max's face go completely red.
Max swallowed but ran to the kitchen for a jug of water. Kenny and Ray were left to stare at the bowl.
"Come on! Eat up home boys!" Mr. Kinomiya encouraged.
"But-" Ray started.
"You know I hate to shelter people that can't stomach my two alarm chili." Mr. Kinomiya said thinking aloud. Ray gulped and looked back at the chili. He took up a spoonful, put it in his mouth and then ran after Max hoping that there was some water left.
Kenny was now looking at the food terrified, and then at Mr. Kinomiya who was grinning.
"I like you little dude." He said smiling. The kind of smile you know has a plan. "If you want, I'll make you my three alarm."
"N-n-no thank-k-k-k yo-o-u!" Kenny said smiling and put a spoonful in his mouth and then also followed after Ray and Max.
"Grandpa that wasn't very nice. They're my friends." Mr. Kinomiya shrugged and left laughing. Tyson got up to check on them.
"You alright guys." Tyson asked as he saw Ray under the sink tap, Kenny under the water dispenser, and Max with a jug of water and a Brita water filter at hand ready to switch.
* * *
"Oh man!" Ray said collapsing on a chair in the living room. "I can breath again." Tyson started laughing.
"I did warn you about it."
"Yeah we should know that if Tyson doesn't' eat it then it must be pretty powerful stuff." Max laughed.
"That stuff could probably burn through steel." Kenny said with his tongue out still trying to cool it off.
"Naw, it's only a two alarm little dudes." Mr. Kinomiya said still laughing.
"Keep counting grandpa!"
*Ding-dong*
"Wonder who that is?" Tyson said as Mr. Kinomiya left to go answer it. To his surprised, when his grandpa came back, Kai was with him.
"Hey Kai!" Tyson said cheerfully for a second, then curious the next. "Wait a minute? I thought you said that you weren't coming?"
"What gave you that idea?"
"Gosh I don't know?" Tyson said sarcastically. "Probably because you said that you wouldn't be caught dead here."
"Whatever!" He said as every started laughing.
"Well anyways, it's good to see you." Ray said. Kai just nodded and headed for the nearest wall. "I guess Sora's the only one left. I wonder if she's coming?" Ray thought aloud.
"She is." Kai said from his wall.
"Ohhhhh so that's why you're here." Ray laughed and Kai blushed acting like he didn't know what Ray meant. The others didn't seem to notice this though as they were talking about battling again.
"Okay Max! But you won't win." Tyson laughed.
The five of them headed in to the backyard where Mr. Kinomiya had installed a Beystadium while Tyson was gone for the tournaments.
"Wow! It's sure is big." Max said looking at the shiny bowl.
"No stalling now." Tyson laughed as he ready Bahumut in the new launcher he got for Christmas. Max did the same with his newly modified Draceil.
"THREE...TWO...ONE...LET IT RRRRRRIIIIIIIPPPPPPPP!!!!" Kenny yelled
"GO BAHUMUT!!!"
"DRACEIL!"
The two blades circled each other until Tyson commanded an attack.
"METAL BALL DEFENSE!!!" Max screamed.
"Wow! Max isn't out of the ring on the first attack from Bahumut this time." Kenny said amazed from the side.
"Hey guys!" Said a new voice. Everyone turned to look except for Max and Tyson since they were too busy battling.
"Hey Sora! Good to see you!" Kenny said.
"Did you get everything straighten out?" Tyson asked beginning to lose interest in the battle.
"No I still got to go to some of Grandpa's estates in America. I was actually wondering if you guys would like to go? There's this new team there that apparently became the best there is."
"WHAT?" Tyson screamed furiously, not even caring about the battle now. He directed everything on Sora now. "What do you mean? We're the best!" Tyson said angrily. Just as there was a blinding flash from the dish.
"WHAT'S GOING ON?" Kenny screamed as he and everyone else shielded their eyes. Then they all noticed something strange. Bahumut appeared from its blade without being summoned and then glowed as he divided in to five blades.
"Wha...what's happening? Tyson said in disbelief as he looked seeing that Bahumut became Dranzer, Fang, Hinotama, Kunama, and Dragoon again. The five blades floated in the air and then shot of in to various directions. Dragoon went to Tyson, Dranzer to Kai, Fang to Sora, and then the remaining two shot in to the air and took off.
"Dizzi?" Kenny said.
"I'm scanning now chief."
/What just happened? / Tyson thought confused staring at Dragoon.
"Anything yet Dizzi?" Max said impatiently.
"Ummm... yes here. Ohhh, okay I get it."
"WHAT?" Ray yelled.
"This is exactly like when Ray lost Driger."
"What do you mean?" Tyson asked quietly.
"You completely ignored the battle. You didn't cared what happened?" Dizzi tried to explain.
"Well we did it at the last tournament. Remember, we just ignored the battle. We didn't command them."
"Yes, but your heart was still in it." Dizzi explained. "When Ray lost Driger, it was because he battled half-heartedly against Kevin. When Sora said that you weren't the best, you ignored the battle completely, not thinking OR caring. You would have lost your bit-beast, but since they're five of them, they just returned to it's originally forms and it seems they returned to their original masters."
"So...Bahumut is gone?" Max confirmed.
"Afraid so." Kenny said.
/Man! Did I ever screw up! / Tyson thought mentally beating himself up.
"You alright Tyson?" Ray asked.
"I'm okay! So Sora? What was this team you were talking about?"
"Ummmm..." Sora was still trying to get over the fact that Fang was back with her. "Oh yeah! Their team name is the 'All Stars'. Other then that I don't know much except that they have never lost a battle."
"Until now." Tyson said grinning. "Once they battle us, they'll never want to battle again." He said in full confidence.
"Good! We'll start training first thing tomorrow." Kai said and then headed inside before any objections could be made.
"But...but...but-" Tyson said with a dropped jaw. "THAT'S NOT FAIR!!!!!!" He screamed as everyone laughed.
Everyone fallowed Kai inside the house. All Tyson could think was /I'll get you back! / Then an idea struck him, and he grinned evilly.
"Oh Kai! Sora! You guys haven't eaten anything have you? How about some dinner." Tyson said heading to the kitchen for grandpa's chili after receiving two 'sure' s. /Sora didn't do anything so I'll be nice, but Kai. He he he, he'll pay. / Tyson thought with an over size grin on his face.
Kai and Sora were at the dinner table talking when Tyson came in with a bowl. The others watched knowing what Tyson was up to.
"Here Kai! Enjoy! And Sora, just give me a second to get yours. It's just that the bowls are really hot." Tyson lied as he acted like he was heading back in to the kitchen to get some more, when he was actually waiting for Kai's scream. /Three...two...one.../
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" Kai screamed believing that he could breathe Fire like Dranzer after putting that in his mouth. He took of for the kitchen to get some water, while everyone laughed.
"What was that about?" Sora asked.
"It's Mr. Kinomiya's chili, which is extremely hot stuff." Max explained between laughs.
Just then Kai returned with fire in his eyes. Everyone noticed this including Tyson who had fear instead of fire in his eyes.
"He he he, now Kai." He said backing away slowly. "It was just a joke, HA HA! You can take a joke right?" He asked with a bit of a squeak when he realized he was against a wall.
"I have some great advice to bestow to you Tyson, so listen carefully." Ray called and Tyson waited.
"W-w-what?" He asked through his chattering teeth.
"RUN!" Ray, Max, and Kenny screamed. Tyson bolted out of the kitchen and then out of the house with Kai close behind.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"
"GET BACK HERE TYSON! I HAVE SOMETHING FOR YOU!"
"I DON'T WANT IT!" Tyson called back but didn't slow down.
* * *
"Oh! Ouch! The pain! It's to much for one man to bare!" Tyson complained lying down on the couch.
"What are you talking about Tyson? Kai didn't even hit you. You fainted from exhaustion before he could, remember?" Sora reminded him.
"But I'm in pain!" He cried out for more attention.
"From that little run?" Ray asked. "You only went around the block like five times."
"Actually three...no two and a half." Kai corrected.
"Oh who has time to count?" Tyson called. "Oh no! Everything's going black guys, I'm done for. Good-bye world."
"For crying out loud. Stop your bellyaching. Everything's black because your eyes are closed." Ray complained.
"Oh!" Tyson said opening his eyes.
"I've never heard so much complaining before due to a little run. Think he might win a prize for it?" Max laughed.
"I think we should get the prize for putting up with it." Sora answered.
"I'm in pain here and your trying to find a way to win a prize. I'm hurt."
"Whatever! Anyways Sora about that trip to America, when is it?"
"Oh yeah! Well we'll leave some time this week and get back after however long it takes."
"Sounds like fun. I'm coming." Max said.
"Me too!" Kenny called.
"I go where the Chief goes!" Dizzi screamed.
"I love traveling, I going too."
"I AM THERE!" Tyson called forgetting he was in pain.
"Your not in too much pain are you?" Kai asked.
"Huh? OH! I mean OUCH THE PAIN!!! But don't worry; I'm sure I'll be okay. I know how much you need me."
"Actually no."
"Not really."
"I sure we'll be fine."
"You should stay behind if you're in too much pai-"
"I'M COMING!!!!" Tyson screamed and everyone laughed.
* * *
Okay I am finally done. Once again, I am sorry that it took me so long but I am still trying to figure out how I want some of this stuff to go.
And *major* thanks to:
Iceeybabe89 for the idea of sending them to America
And
glaramee@cogeco.ca for the idea of splitting the blades back up.
JA!
If you just started reading this then make sure you have read 'Fighting Spirits' because some of the stuff I will write will probably fly right over your head if you don't. So okay, let's start writing. I haven't gotten everything figured out yet but I should be good for a while, and I will also try and update once a week like I did before but no guarantees because I got exams coming up when I go back to school *sulks*. But after exams :) that's different. Oh well, don't mind me and enjoy the story.

"You alright guys." Tyson asked as he saw Ray under the sink tap, Kenny under the water dispenser, and Max with a jug of water and a Brita water filter at hand ready to switch.
* * *
"Oh man!" Ray said collapsing on a chair in the living room. "I can breath again." Tyson started laughing.
"I did warn you about it."
"Yeah we should know that if Tyson doesn't' eat it then it must be pretty powerful stuff." Max laughed.
"That stuff could probably burn through steel." Kenny said with his tongue out still trying to cool it off.
"Naw, it's only a two alarm little dudes." Mr. Kinomiya said still laughing.
"Keep counting grandpa!"
*Ding-dong*
"Wonder who that is?" Tyson said as Mr. Kinomiya left to go answer it. To his surprised, when his grandpa came back, Kai was with him.
"Hey Kai!" Tyson said cheerfully for a second, then curious the next. "Wait a minute? I thought you said that you weren't coming?"
"What gave you that idea?"
"Gosh I don't know?" Tyson said sarcastically. "Probably because you said that you wouldn't be caught dead here."
"Whatever!" He said as every started laughing.
"Well anyways, it's good to see you." Ray said. Kai just nodded and headed for the nearest wall. "I guess Sora's the only one left. I wonder if she's coming?" Ray thought aloud.
"She is." Kai said from his wall.
"Ohhhhh so that's why you're here." Ray laughed and Kai blushed acting like he didn't know what Ray meant. The others didn't seem to notice this though as they were talking about battling again.
"Okay Max! But you won't win." Tyson laughed.
The five of them headed in to the backyard where Mr. Kinomiya had installed a Beystadium while Tyson was gone for the tournaments.
"Wow! It's sure is big." Max said looking at the shiny bowl.
"No stalling now." Tyson laughed as he ready Bahumut in the new launcher he got for Christmas. Max did the same with his newly modified Draceil.
"THREE...TWO...ONE...LET IT RRRRRRIIIIIIIPPPPPPPP!!!!" Kenny yelled
"GO BAHUMUT!!!"
"DRACEIL!"
The two blades circled each other until Tyson commanded an attack.
"METAL BALL DEFENSE!!!" Max screamed.
"Wow! Max isn't out of the ring on the first attack from Bahumut this time." Kenny said amazed from the side.
"Hey guys!" Said a new voice. Everyone turned to look except for Max and Tyson since they were too busy battling.
"Hey Sora! Good to see you!" Kenny said.
"Did you get everything straighten out?" Tyson asked beginning to lose interest in the battle.
"No I still got to go to some of Grandpa's estates in America. I was actually wondering if you guys would like to go? There's this new team there that apparently became the best there is."
"WHAT?" Tyson screamed furiously, not even caring about the battle now. He directed everything on Sora now. "What do you mean? We're the best!" Tyson said angrily. Just as there was a blinding flash from the dish.
"WHAT'S GOING ON?" Kenny screamed as he and everyone else shielded their eyes. Then they all noticed something strange. Bahumut appeared from its blade without being summoned and then glowed as he divided in to five blades.
"Wha...what's happening? Tyson said in disbelief as he looked seeing that Bahumut became Dranzer, Fang, Hinotama, Kunama, and Dragoon again. The five blades floated in the air and then shot of in to various directions. Dragoon went to Tyson, Dranzer to Kai, Fang to Sora, and then the remaining two shot in to the air and took off.
"Dizzi?" Kenny said.
"I'm scanning now chief."
/What just happened? / Tyson thought confused staring at Dragoon.
"Anything yet Dizzi?" Max said impatiently.
"Ummm... yes here. Ohhh, okay I get it."
"WHAT?" Ray yelled.
"This is exactly like when Ray lost Driger."
"What do you mean?" Tyson asked quietly.
"You completely ignored the battle. You didn't cared what happened?" Dizzi tried to explain.
"Well we did it at the last tournament. Remember, we just ignored the battle. We didn't command them."
"Yes, but your heart was still in it." Dizzi explained. "When Ray lost Driger, it was because he battled half-heartedly against Kevin. When Sora said that you weren't the best, you ignored the battle completely, not thinking OR caring. You would have lost your bit-beast, but since they're five of them, they just returned to it's originally forms and it seems they returned to their original masters."
"So...Bahumut is gone?" Max confirmed.
"Afraid so." Kenny said.
/Man! Did I ever screw up! / Tyson thought mentally beating himself up.
"You alright Tyson?" Ray asked.
"I'm okay! So Sora? What was this team you were talking about?"
"Ummmm..." Sora was still trying to get over the fact that Fang was back with her. "Oh yeah! Their team name is the 'All Stars'. Other then that I don't know much except that they have never lost a battle."
"Until now." Tyson said grinning. "Once they battle us, they'll never want to battle again." He said in full confidence.
"Good! We'll start training first thing tomorrow." Kai said and then headed inside before any objections could be made.
"But...but...but-" Tyson said with a dropped jaw. "THAT'S NOT FAIR!!!!!!" He screamed as everyone laughed.
Everyone fallowed Kai inside the house. All Tyson could think was /I'll get you back! / Then an idea struck him, and he grinned evilly.
"Oh Kai! Sora! You guys haven't eaten anything have you? How about some dinner." Tyson said heading to the kitchen for grandpa's chili after receiving two 'sure' s. /Sora didn't do anything so I'll be nice, but Kai. He he he, he'll pay. / Tyson thought with an over size grin on his face.
Kai and Sora were at the dinner table talking when Tyson came in with a bowl. The others watched knowing what Tyson was up to.
"Here Kai! Enjoy! And Sora, just give me a second to get yours. It's just that the bowls are really hot." Tyson lied as he acted like he was heading back in to the kitchen to get some more, when he was actually waiting for Kai's scream. /Three...two...one.../
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" Kai screamed believing that he could breathe Fire like Dranzer after putting that in his mouth. He took of for the kitchen to get some water, while everyone laughed.
"What was that about?" Sora asked.
"It's Mr. Kinomiya's chili, which is extremely hot stuff." Max explained between laughs.
Just then Kai returned with fire in his eyes. Everyone noticed this including Tyson who had fear instead of fire in his eyes.
"He he he, now Kai." He said backing away slowly. "It was just a joke, HA HA! You can take a joke right?" He asked with a bit of a squeak when he realized he was against a wall.
"I have some great advice to bestow to you Tyson, so listen carefully." Ray called and Tyson waited.
"W-w-what?" He asked through his chattering teeth.
"RUN!" Ray, Max, and Kenny screamed. Tyson bolted out of the kitchen and then out of the house with Kai close behind.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"
"GET BACK HERE TYSON! I HAVE SOMETHING FOR YOU!"
"I DON'T WANT IT!" Tyson called back but didn't slow down.
* * *
"Oh! Ouch! The pain! It's to much for one man to bare!" Tyson complained lying down on the couch.
"What are you talking about Tyson? Kai didn't even hit you. You fainted from exhaustion before he could, remember?" Sora reminded him.
"But I'm in pain!" He cried out for more attention.
"From that little run?" Ray asked. "You only went around the block like five times."
"Actually three...no two and a half." Kai corrected.
"Oh who has time to count?" Tyson called. "Oh no! Everything's going black guys, I'm done for. Good-bye world."
"For crying out loud. Stop your bellyaching. Everything's black because your eyes are closed." Ray complained.
"Oh!" Tyson said opening his eyes.
"I've never heard so much complaining before due to a little run. Think he might win a prize for it?" Max laughed.
"I think we should get the prize for putting up with it." Sora answered.
"I'm in pain here and your trying to find a way to win a prize. I'm hurt."
"Whatever! Anyways Sora about that trip to America, when is it?"
"Oh yeah! Well we'll leave some time this week and get back after however long it takes."
"Sounds like fun. I'm coming." Max said.
"Me too!" Kenny called.
"I go where the Chief goes!" Dizzi screamed.
"I love traveling, I going too."
"I AM THERE!" Tyson called forgetting he was in pain.
"Your not in too much pain are you?" Kai asked.
"Huh? OH! I mean OUCH THE PAIN!!! But don't worry; I'm sure I'll be okay. I know how much you need me."
"Actually no."
"Not really."
"I sure we'll be fine."
"You should stay behind if you're in too much pai-"
"I'M COMING!!!!" Tyson screamed and everyone laughed.
* * *
Okay I am finally done. Once again, I am sorry that it took me so long but I am still trying to figure out how I want some of this stuff to go.
And *major* thanks to:
Iceeybabe89 for the idea of sending them to America
And
glaramee@cogeco.ca for the idea of splitting the blades back up.
JA!
