Wake up Rei!
Mariah gasped in surprise. She looked at Lees' motionless body. Her golden eyes filled with tears, angry tears. She glared at Rei who was now walking away.
" What's happened to you? Rei this isn't you." She stood up, and slowly made her way to Rei. She walked in front of him and slapped him. "Wake up Rei! Come back to reality. We 're you friends." Rei looked at her. His eyes had no emotion. It was like his emotions were erased. Tears flew out of her eyes.
"Rei please. Don't do this. Come back to me Rei. I need you. As a friend. Please stop this and come home with us." Rei looked at her. His eyes studying her.
"Ma…ri…ah." Rei eyes softened a little.
"Rei?" She looked at him hopefully. He just walked towards her and again pushed her aside. She let out a cry as her arm smacked the edge of a table. Kevin growled and glared at him.
"What is wrong with you? Why don't you wake up! Rei! Stop acting like a complete jerk and try to remember." Rei scoffed at him.
" What's to remember? I never had any friends."
"Yes Rei, you do. Mariah, and me. Lee there is your brother. We came to save you. Why do think we're here?" Rei looked at the shorter boy.
" Remember when we were in the lake and we were trying to catch fish. You caught the biggest. Remember?" Reis' eyes half closed as if trying to remember.
"Lee caught the largest, not me." Rei shook his head. And narrowed his eyes. "You not what you speak, that couldn't have been me!"
" If it wasn't then why did you remember?"
" Remember what?"
" That memory you had a few minutes ago. You do remember. Try and remember more." Reis' looked at Yukai then at Kevin and then Mariah then his brother. " Why do they seem so familiar? I think I know them from somewhere. But where? I'm so confused." Yukai could see that he was starting to remember and said,
"Remember what I told you. They're not your friends, They just want to take you and hold you hostage so they can learn our secrets, Don't let them manipulate you!" Rei shook his head and narrowed his eyes again.
"I won't let you manipulate me! You will not learn the secrets."
" Rei he's lying. Don't listen to him." Mariah spoke holding her arm. " He's lying. We are your friends and we want you back! Please Rei! Please believe me."
" You all are lying I don't know you! I will not allow myself to be manipulated!" Rei shook his head. Tears flooded Mariahs' eyes. She stepped towards him.
"Please Rei…please." She placed a hand gently on his shoulder. " Don't listen to him. We are your friends. We need you Rei." She looked into his eyes. Her golden eyes reflecting hope. Rei looked in her eyes; His face relaxed a little. His eyes softened again.
"Rei, remember when you helped me to beyblade. You always told me never to give up and you'll always pull through. I know that if you try hard enough you can remember, and your memories will pull through. " He stared at this pink haired girl.
" Mariah?" she smiled.
" Yes Rei it's me." Tears filled her eyes. "I have something for you." Then she reached in her pocket and pulled out Driger. Rei gasped at the sight of the blade.
" This belongs to you."
" Driger." She placed it in his hand. He tightened his grip as looked at it. "This is mine…I got it from grandfather…"
"Yes. Rei!" She gleefully looked in his eyes. Emotions were coming back a smile crossed her face. She took a deep breath and pointed to Kevin.
"Do you remember him?" Kevin smiled.
" Kevin…He's been my friend for as long as I can remember." Kevins' smile go t bigger.
"What about him?" Kevin motioned to Lee.
"Lee!" Rei gasped at his brothers' condition. He rushed over and picked up Lees' head.
" Lee? Lee? Wake up." Rei lightly shook his brother. " Lee, Lee. It's me Rei. Wake up. Lee." Lee softly moaned. And slowly opened his eyes.
"Rei?" Rei smiled.
"Hey brother." Lee softly smiled.
" You remember."
"Yeah thanks to Mariah." He said looking back at her. She blushed and softly giggled.
" I would do anything for a friend." Rei smiled at her and looked back down at his brother. Tears suddenly filled his eyes. Rei looked down so his bangs covered his eyes.
"I'm sorry guys. I didn't mean to hurt you. " Tears flew down his face. A hand touches his shoulder. He looks over and sees his brothers smiling face.
" It's okay Rei. I'm just glad your okay." Lee hugged his brother. Rei hugged him back. Then Lee was jerked back by his collar. A hand reached into his pocket and pulled out Galeon.
" Hey!" Lee struggled in Yukais' grasp.
" Now Galeon is mine!" He laughed triumphantly. Rei growled low in his throat. And seized Yukai from behind looping his arms around his neck.
" Release him! And Galeon! Galeon doesn't belong to you." Yukai dropped Lee and flew so his back hit the wall. Rei cried out in pain, but didn't let go. Yukai growled and did it again. Reis' eyes squeezed shut.
" Get off me, Brat!" Yukai did it again. Rei suddenly screamed in pain and released him and fell to the ground grasping his side. Blood seeped through his fingers. Lee growled and tackled Yukai. Lee socked him in the jaw and put this hands around the mans neck. Kevin was trying to pry Galeon from Yukais' hand.
"Rei!" Mariah rushed up and knelt at his side. Rei groaned and shut his eyes. Mariah looked down at him. Suddenly anger took over her, her eyes were enflamed with fire and her face screwed up in anger, her eyes were slits as she stood up and stomped over to where Yukai and her teammates were. She walked over and as hard as she could stomped on his wrist that held Galeon.
Yukai cried out as he released it. Kevin snatched it out of his hand. Mariah pulled Yukai by his collar. She was face to face with him when she growled.
"I hate people who hurt people. I hate people who kidnap kids and hold them for ransom. I HATE PEOPLE LIKE YOU!" She screamed as she punched him with all her might with every word.
When she released him Yukai was unconscious. She looked at Lee and Kevin who were looking at herein shock.
" Remind me never to get on her bad side." Kevin whispered. Lee nodded and made his way to Rei. He knelt down and put a hand on Reis' shoulder. Rei looked up at him.
" I'll be okay." Rei said. They helped Rei out. Mariah had tied a bandage around his waist. They walked out side. And made their way home.
