entertainment
A/N: This is my first Beyblade fic... so be kind. LoL The rating of this story may change for later chapters. Though I won't continue w/o feedback.
CHIBI MEGAMI: hehe I'm glad yer liking it I'll do my best to update as much as I can. Oh, and good guess though you'll see ^_~ And to answer yer question you'll hafta read to find out for sure.
JACKY: Yeah, I thought Max could use some new clothes too. I figured they're older so they could change things around slighty. And YAOI means male/male relationship. And in case no ones ever told you... the counter to that is YURI which is girl/girl relationship.
ANDROID 71: Just for sake of the story I made it so that at the Nationals (Whether that's a real beyblading tournament or not I dunno I just thought it sounded important ^^;;;) the Bladebreakers were one win away from winning and it was Rei's turn to battle. I had it so he lost for future events in the story.
LB: Thanx ^_^ I try my best. I'm glad yer enjoying it. I hope you like this chapter too.
DARKDRAGON: Its great that yer enjoying it! I hope you keep reading n_n

Chapter 3: Reunited
-----------------------------------
(Rei's POV)
When we started moving up towards the mansion I couldn't help but shudder. The place just seemed so dark and dreary. So cold and empty... I will admit that the place was absolutely stunning. I mean it had this ancient beauty about it but there was just something about the place I couldn't quite understand. It gave me an uneasy feeling.
I guess Max noticed my uneasiness since he asked if I was alright. I noticed he was staring at my hands. I looked down to see that I had been playing with the end of my ponytail. I smiled weakly and told him I was just nervous about seeing Kai and Tyson again. Max being Max he told me not to worry because it was just Kai and Tyson. I couldn't help but smirk at Max's naivete.
The taxi dropped us off at the gates, and seemed to drive off faster then he had been driving before. Or maybe that was just my jitters, though I highly doubt it. I stood looking up at the place before us, my bag in hand, and couldn't help but be in awe of it.
"Wow..." I muttered as me and Max looked up at the place.
The blonde nodded his agreement, and then before we knew it the gates had opened before us...
-------------------------------
(Max's POV)
"Ack!!!" I shouted jumping back about three feet as the gates opened up. "Whoa... neat trick!!!"
I grinned from ear to ear at Rei who still looked startled by it, but I guess it was understandable. We stood there for only a moment before heading to the front door. The doors looked awful heavy when we got to the top of the stairs. They were so big, and cool carvings on them. It even had this cool knocker thing but Rei wouldn't let me try it out. Instead he told me to use the doorbell. I figured that was the next best thing so I pushed it and before we knew it...
"MAX! REI!" Tyson exclaimed as he opened the door for us.
Both me and Rei smiled at our ex-teammate, but before we could say anything he flung his arms around us in a sort of group hug. I gladly accepted it, and patted him on the back. When he let us go I noticed his new clothes. Red cap... black t-shirt... red pants... though he still had his red jacket. I guess I shouldn't have expected him to remain entirely the same. After all I too had gotten new clothes. Who would want the same clothes after ten years?
"Hi Tyson! n_n Its great to see you!" I said as he ushered us inside, closing the door behind us.
"Yeah, you got yourself a nice place too," Rei chimed in as he slid his shoes off and looked around at the big hall we were in.
It had this BIG staircase that sorta twisted. I was definitely going to be sliding down that later. It also had weird sculptures. I remember seeing something like them in Europe. What had they been called again...? Oh well it didn't really matter. The place was so cool. And clean too!!! I could actually kind of see my reflection in the marble floor.
-------------------------------------
(Tyson's POV)
"Heh... yeah... thanks..." I said blushing a bit at Rei's compliment, resting my hand at the back of my head trying to sound innocent.
I saw that questioning look in Rei's golden eyes so quickly I changed the subject. Hoping to advert the thoughts of my ex-teammate. I wasn't sure exactly what to talk about. I just picked the first thing that came to mind.
"You guys look great! The new clothes look good," I said looking over Max and Rei's new look.
Actually it had really been Rei that changed his look. Max had merely changed colours like me, but Rei... He was wearing a white button down shirt with no sleeves and red pants that matched the colour of his headband. I could see why Kai wanted Rei so bad, well sort of. My plan hadn't exactly worked though.
"So Tyson... this is your place huh?" Rei asked me giving me that look he always did when he was suspicious.
"I- well... you see..." I stammered.
"Its his place... and mine."
----------------------------------------
(Kai's POV)
I had been watching them when Tyson let them in. Rei had looked absolutely stunning. There was just something about him that drew me to him. I especially loved his eyes. Those golden globes were just amazing. I could get lost in them for hours. I.... Ahem...
"So Tyson... this is your place huh?"
His place? Ha! He wishes. It figures he'd say something like that. Well I guess it wasn't entirely a lie. I sighed and decided it was time to make my entrance.
"Its his place... and mine," I said as I descended the stairs.
I did my best to hide my smile when I saw the look of shock on Max and Rei's faces. It was just too priceless for words. I could tell they hadn't expected such an answer. Hell I never would have thought I'd be saying it either, but here I was...
There was something else about Rei's reaction though. Something in his eyes. Something I couldn't quite place. What was it?
"You and Tyson? -YOU- and Tyson share this place?" Max asked his eyes wide and his mouth nearly to the floor.
I smirked, and set my eyes on him with a hard glare.
"Didn't I just say that? Looks like you haven't cleaned your ears out since the last time I saw you, and if I remember correctly I had to repeat myself then too."
"Well your attitude definitely hasn't changed much," Max said rolling his eyes almost fondly.
Yup, that was me. Acting like my usual cold self. What else would they expect? Me to run down the stairs and hug and kiss them? Now that was a laugh.
"Well since Tyson has forgotten his manners as usual. Why don't you put your bags down and come have a seat?" I asked before ushering them into the sitting room not too far away where there were comfy couches and chairs to sit in, and a fireplace to keep them warm.
After everyone was seated, and comfortable Tyson oddly enough took charge and started asking question after question of the two. Wanting to know what they had been up to, and just plain catching up. I missed bits and pieces when I went to get a drink and a snack for them, but overall I was able to catch everything. Hours had passed when I could feel the sun would soon be rising.
"Its getting late. You two must be exhausted," I said looking at the clock which read almost 5 in the morning. "We should continue this tomorrow after you two have been washed and well rested."
Both Rei and Max nodded as they stretched and yawned. Even Tyson began to get sleepy as his eyes started to drift shut. I got to my feet and lead everyone back out into the hall. I picked up their bags and handed Tyson the bags Max had brought.
"Come with us, we'll show you to your rooms," I said before leading them upstairs.
