Chapter 3
"I want a bey battle with you!" said Ray, "I want to revenge Tyson's loss."
"You don't have to," said the angry Tyson, "I'll do it my self!"
"Who said I was even going to bey battle any of you?" said Kayla in a matter of fact kind of way, instead of a question.
"You don't have to battle us, if you're scared," said Max, trying to get her to accept Ray or Tyson's challenge
"That's not going to work on me," said Kayla as she leaned against the back wall of the store, "If Tyson, supposedly your best player can't even beat Arial. What chance do you have against me?"
Nobody there could answer that question, not even Kai or Kenny.
"How about I take your challenge," said Celia to the Blade Breakers, "But only on one condition."
"What is it?" asked Tyson, "I'll get a bey battle with you guys if it's the last thing I do."
"I don't want to bey battle you," said Celia, "I want a bey battle with Kai."
"What?" asked Kenny, "Why?"
"Do you want the battle or not?"
Everybody there turned to look at Kai and he nodded. "I'll do it," said Kai, who was still looking uncertainly at Kayla and Celia.
"What are they up to?" thought Kai to him self, "Kayla won't even look at me in the eyes, or am I the one who won't look at her in the eyes? Is it because I'm afraid that I'll see hatred and betrayal inside? She always looked at me with love and kindness. I'm afraid. Me, Kai, is afraid. About what? Is it rejection? Or is it the loss of the person I've cared about the most since I was 8."
"This is pathetic! I've never been afraid of any of my opponents, even against Spencer or Johnny. Why am I afraid of looking at a girl in the eyes? Especially, one that I've known since when I was a young boy. Why am I bey battling against Celia? Is it because that I want to prove my self against the team I trained? Or do I want to prove my self in the eyes of a certain brunette?"
"How about if we see you at the bey stadium outside of the abbey in 20min? You know where it is," said Arial coolly to the Blade Breakers and they nodded in agreement before she turned around and left
"Let's go," said Kayla coolly before she left as well. Arial followed her, but Sapphire gave Kai and Ray a soft smile before she left.
"What's with you and that Kayla girl?" whispered Ray into Kai's ear
"What?" Kai tried his best trying to keep his voice as calm as possible, but on the inside he was panicking. What if they find out that I had a history with the leader of Mystic Dragons? Then there would be all that talk from Kenny. And the rest would be asking what exactly happened between us. That conversation would necessarily make me sick, "What do you mean?" he asked coolly
"Maybe I'm just getting suspicious for no reason or the only one to notice, but you were staring at her through out the whole meeting, and she was the only person from their team that didn't talk to you or look at you, as a matter of fact," said Ray unsurely, because of the tone Kai had spoken to him in earlier, it sounded so calm and innocent that he didn't dare to not believe him
"Geeze Kai," said Tyson, "we all know she was pretty, but did you have to stare at the girl. In fact, I wouldn't mind going out with her, if she wasn't on that team."
"I wasn't staring," said Kai harshly, "She just looked different after all these years, and I was wondering what changed." Said Kai before he walked out of the candy store, "We better get going, if we are going to make it to the battle."
"Yeah, we are coming!" yelled Tyson before he and Kenny ran after Kai
"What do you think Ray?" asked Max, "I'm pretty sure there was something between Kai and that girl. He looked at her the same way you looked at Mariah."
"And that girl looked at him the way Mariah looked at me at first. It was the look of hate and betrayal," said Ray, "Whatever it is, it's Kai's personal thing. I'm pretty sure, he wouldn't be happy if we talk about it behind his back. He'll tell us if he wants us to know."
"I guess you are right," said Max before he followed
At the abbey, The Demolition boys, the Mystic Dragons, and the rest of the younger bey blader were standing near the bey stadium outside of the abbey, waiting for the Blade Breakers to arrive.
"Why did you challenge him?" asked Kayla, "You never cared for Kai or any of the other blade breakers."
"You know," said Celia with a little head tilt
Tala walked over to the girls with Brian. When he reached Kayla, he gave her a little kiss on the cheek and wrapped his arms around her waist. "Hey, sorry about earlier. I wish I could've gone with you to the park like I promised." Tala whispered into Kayla's ear
"It's ok, I had fun with the girls anyways," said Kayla softly
"I'm glad," said Tala as he kissed her softly on her cheek, "Why are we here?" he asked Kayla in his normal tone of voice
"Celia challenged Kai to a bey battle," answered Kayla, "That's why we are all here."
"So, Mr. Traitor is back!" said Brian loudly, "I can't wait to see him get beaten by my twin sister!"
"Make him pay for what he did," said Tala to Celia with a thumb's up. Most people would've thought that he meant that he want Kai to pay for betraying the Demolition Boys, but Arial, Sapphire, and Celia knew better. They knew he meant that he wanted Kai to pay, because he broke Kayla's heart. They knew it because they've grown up Tala, and Kayla had always been his best friend and the person who cared about him the most.
"Don't worry, I will," said Celia, "I'll give him what he deserves."
