Kristen here, with chapter five (not six!!) of Beytanic!! Gotta apologize for this chapter being so late... I'm a lazy bum when it comes to typing, and schoolwork's killing me, not to mention that the computer monitor broke on Sunday and we had to wait until Monday evening for the new one. Oh well... enough with the excuses.



Okay, as we said, here are review responses!! Also, all negative reviews from this point on will be ignored. We don't need anymore little unfortunate spats with people who don't like our fics. I'm sure the people who DO like it don't appreciate it when we update just to respond to bad reviews. ^^



luckydog: Thanks for reviewing. We think Kai makes a GREAT Rose... -grins and nudges Kai-



HXH-YGO-OtAkU: -cuddles the Rei plushie- Oooh, thanks for all of the positive feedback...and the plushie!! Rei's my favorite character!



aZn-DiViN3-bLeU: Hehe... "Oh boy... a dollar!" has to be one of the best quotes from this fic so far...



Platinum Rei: As we said before, Rei won't die! ^^;; I wouldn't let my favorite character die...



Shinikami Dragon: -huggles- Thanks for standing up for us against the flamers... we really appreciate it!



somilia, jenfia et kynia: Thanks for reviewing! :D



Mariah: Thanks... but I don't think it's going to get much more sentimental... ^^; Possibly...



Ojamajo Doremi DOKKAN: Yay! More happy reviewers... thanks for reading!



SquirrelOfShadows: Ahaha... thankies!! Here's the update!!



wtf?!?!?: Dunno if this can be considered a positive review or not. .__. But, anyway, I'll answer it. No, we weren't kidding about the parody. We watched the movie and wrote it as much like it as possible. And I dunno why Rei's acting like Tyson... -shrugs- Everyone's pretty OOC.



Humor writer: He... hentai Rei, don't we love him? Thanks for reviewing!



Akari Monomiko: Yup, the dirty part has passed... -puts a sticker on Kai that says "female counterpart Kai"- That'll attract the masses... Thanks! ^^



white spirit angel: Thank you for reading and reviewing... and Kai not liking Rei is what's making it funny. ^^

-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Ok, I, being me, Becky, also would like to thank all the reviewers, considering I didn't get to say ANYTHING in the review responses. And say that I'm sorry for the last update being so lame... that was my fault... my humor and temper mix and it results in snide remarks and sarcastic insults on whoever ticked me off...

-grabs Kristen by the neck and shakes her- Stop trying to take over the freakin' story!! If you don't, I'll get Unicolyon on you!!

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-



"Wow," Rei breathed as he sat up, straddling Kai. "That was a lot kinkier than I'd thought it'd be. By the way, where'd you learn to do that thing with your tongue?" he added, glancing down at Kai.



He was about to respond when two men ran in, one holding a flashlight. The one with the flashlight moved it so the beam of light skimmed over boxes and covered things while the other one spoke.



"They came in here, I know they did," he said while his partner searched. The circle of light fell on a smeared handprint on the carriage window. The guy holding the flashlight motioned to the other and they crept slowly toward the carriage.



"Gotcha!" one yelled as he swung open the door, only to find it empty.



-=-=-=-=-=-=-



Enrique yawned and stared out at the horizon from the lookout tower. He lifted his head when Johnny, who was also on lookout, laughed.



"Hey, look at this," Johnny crowed, leaning over the edge of the lookout wooden bucket-like thingy. He pointed down to the deck below them, where Kai and Rei had emerged.



"Wait, Kai," Rei wailed, clinging to his arm. "I love you!"



"Let go, dammit," Kai growled, shaking his arm in an attempt to detach Rei.



"But we did the nasty!" Rei cried, still clutching desperately to Kai.



"This is better than daytime talk shows," Johnny said, watching with interest as Rei whined and Kai growled.



Enrique shook his head and looked back to the ocean. He blinked when a little speck appeared on the horizon, drifting closer.



"Gasp!" He began to ring the warning bell loudly. "Rouge windsurfer! Veer left! LEFT!"

Below him, the crew ran around frantically. Oliver, who was steering the ship, turned the wheel sharply to the left.



The windsurfer, who happened to be Boris, took no notice to the ship and sailed straight toward it. With an explosion, he collided with the right side of the ship, causing it to shudder violently.



Kenny burst into the steering room, panting. "We've been hit!" Oliver watched as he ran over to the wheel, where Dizzi had been embedded into the ship. "Are we sinking?" he asked his Bitbeast, who just made a gurgling noise. Kenny screamed and looked around in terror.



"Well, sinking is fun and all, but I'd rather live," Oliver said, walking out and over to his lifeblimp. Within minutes, the blimp had lifted up and was floating away.



-=-=-=-=-=-=-



"Wait... please-- what was that?" Rei interrupted his own pleas to Kai to question the shaking ship.



"How'm I supposed to know?" Kai returned, yanking his arm away from Rei.



As they began to wander to the front of the ship, they noticed quite a few people kicking around flaming chunks of Boris.



"Morons," Kai muttered as he passed them.



One of the chunks was kicked toward Rei, setting his outfit on fire yet again.



-=-=-=-=-=-=-



Meanwhile, below deck, Lee and the other members of steerage were having their own problems.



"America?!" Lee shrieked as he stepped into two inches of water upon climbing out of bed. He exited to the hall, where other steerage passengers had begun streaming out.

"Follow the roaches!" yelled one guy in front.



As steerage was being led to safety by the enormous roaches, Robert rushed along in first class, clutching a single sheet of rolled-up paper. He was headed straight for the "operating room."

-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Not long after, Bryan and Ian emerged from their quarters, looking outraged.

"You!" Bryan growled, pointing to a Beytanic employee.

"Sir, there is no emergency," the man quickly replied.

"Yes, there is. I've been robbed," Bryan said, glaring at the harassed employee.

"Do something... NOW!" Ian interjected.

The man looked from Bryan to Ian before running off for help.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Kai walked up the stairs, followed by a whimpering Rei. On their way up, they passed a hysterical Kenny, who was being accompanied by Enrique, Johnny, and a giggly Robert.

"Hmm... this is serious. Let's go tell your grandpa!" Rei said, pulling Kai off to tell Voltaire and Bryan the news.

Upon arriving, Kai was greeted by Ian.

"We've been waiting on you," he said. He then allowed the two to pass so he could slip Bryan's Beyblade into Rei's nonexistent pocket.

"Search him," Bryan demanded the minute Rei and Kai entered the suite.

"What?! I didn't do anything!" Rei whined as two guards pulled at his clothes.

"Is this what you call nothing?" one guard asked, holding up the precious Beyblade Bryan had given to Kai.

"How did..." Rei trailed off, looking puzzled.

A few moments of silence passed before Kai spoke up. "He didn't take it. He isn't smart enough to pull off a scam like that."

"Shut up, Kai... or I may put you through the ringa next," Bryan threatened.

Kai stood, quiet, watching Rei as they dragged him out.

"I didn't doooo iiiiit!" Rei screeched as they pulled him down the hall.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Robert unrolled his sheet of paper and looked down at it. On it was a figure that remotely resembled a ship.

"The ship is built to hold water in the first four compartments," Robert stated, "and the fifth compartment is filling now. So, you know what that means? We're gonna sink!"

He then burst into a fit of giggles fit for a schoolgirl.

As Kenny began hyperventilating, Robert continued.

"And we all know what that means... rich people off first!"

Enrique and Johnny cheered as the three of them marched out to the life planks. They then boarded one, fully equipped with a piano and player, tea table, and Gustav.

"How much time do we have?" Kenny screamed after them.

"Not enough!" Robert yelled back as the three rich boys floated off to safety.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Bryan stepped out of the doorway and over to Kai. He opened his mouth to say something, then closed it. He thought for a moment, then went to speak, but stopped again. He then settled for just slapping Kai across the face. Bryan stalked to the other side of the room, muttering something about the ringa.

A knock sounded at the door and one of the ship employees came in.

"It is requested that you put on your life jackets and report to the deck," he spoke up. "The captain advises that you dress warmly," he added before ducking back out of the room.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-

"Nooo!! I didn't do it!" Rei wailed as Ian handcuffed him to a pipe in one of the lower-level rooms. "Let me gooo!"

"Shut up," Ian growled, sticking the key into his pocket.

Rei whimpered and looked out of his little circular window to see the life plank that Robert, Johnny, and Enrique had left on floating back over.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Kai and Bryan entered the room with the big staircase, looking around for anyone who seemed to know something. Voltaire was pulling on his jacket, giving the maid orders as he did so. "I want the tea to be ready by the time I return to my room," he instructed.

Kai spotted Robert walking down the Grand Staircase, giggling fit to kill, and confronted him. He smirked and crossed his arms. "We're gonna sink, huh?" Kai asked, though it was more of a statement than a question.

Robert grinned widely. "I believe we are. I'd give the ship about an hour and a half at the most before she's sitting at the bottom of the ocean." He giggled and bowed slightly to Kai. "If you'll excuse me, I think I fancy a cup of tea at the moment." He walked past Kai and out of the room, muttering something about returning for his money.

Bryan, who had been listening to the short conversation, frowned. He immediately headed for the deck, Kai and Voltaire in tow.

Up on deck, they met up with Tala Brown near a life plank that was being loaded with first-class passengers. Tala climbed on then patted the spot next to him. "C'mon, Voltaire, first class seats are right here!"

Voltaire got on and sat by Tala, then looked up at Kai expectantly.

Kai was about to follow suit, when he felt something within him strongly protest. He thought of Rei, trapped down in some room, while water poured in from the doorframe. It was almost as if he felt... guilty.

"Kai? Get on the plank, Kai!" Voltaire shouted as they began to lower the life plank to the water.

Bryan growled and pushed through the crowd after Kai, who had strode away. He caught Kai by the arm and spun him around.

"Kai, I'm not going to let you be a whore to some steerage crap!"

"To tell you the truth, I don't want to be his whore or your husband," Kai replied coolly, yanking his arm from Bryan's grasp. In the background, Voltaire's wails of "Kai!" could be heard.

Bryan grabbed him again and tried to pull him back, while Kai tried to pull away. Suddenly, an idea struck him. He hacked up a big, gooey hunk of phlegm and spit it into Bryan's face. He took a moment to smirk, satisfied, then sprinted off.

Whew... okay, that was fairly long. Sorry I stopped there, I didn't get a chance to write anymore and I needed to update soon. ^^; Next chapter? I dunno... haven't written it. But, I do know that Kai rescues Rei, and the ship is sloooowly going down. It should be up in about a week, at the most. Review, pleeeease!!

As for extra reading, Becky's doing a Beyblade parody on WWE, and it had two chapters up so far. Check it out on her pen name, I R PinkCake. And, I might try my hand at some pure romance once I get the chance. As in... no humor!! -dramatic gasp- I'll tell you if I post something like that.
