I am so sorry for the short chapter last time, especially since it didn't tell what happened after that Cliffhanger. But this week's chapter will tell you, and hopefully this chapter won't leave you angry with me or too happy with me.
Fallen Angels, Rising Devils
By: Firehedgehog
Chapter Eleven: An Angels Tears
It isn't everyday you meet an angel, then again... it isn't everyday the angel is a changed one.
Mind you, Tenshi was still the hottest thing is sight... Kai quickly forced himself not to drool.
He sweatdropped a bit as Tala sent him a glare as cold as the south pole, he then sent one as hot as a volcano back at the cyborg.
This quickly turned into a glaring match between the two teens; they didn't even pay attention to what the others were doing.
-He's hot and he's mine- Tala's glare seemed to say.
-No way he's too hot to let a cold bastard like you have him- Kai's glare said.
-Mine, he's my angel- Tala's glare shouted.
-May the best blader Win the angel- Kai glare said, Tala nodded.
(FH sighs, those two are weird... but the whole glaring contest and talking is funny ain't it)
Kai then turned to look at the angel winged Bishi, he sweatdropped a bit at what his teammates were doing.
Max was asking question's a mile a minute, mostly about what kind of things Tenshi could do and if he could actually fly with his wings.
Kenny was examining Tenshi's wings intently; he even had Dizzy out scanning Tenshi a bit. (yes Dizzy still works, the bit beast inside the computer stopped the virus from affecting it and Kenny has found to recharge the computer still)
Ray looked like he either wanted to run the changed one through with a knife because of what changed ones did to his village, or run up and ask questions like Max.
Through all this Tenshi stood there wide eyed answering a few questions, he was also trying to edge away from Kenny who was trying to get one of his wing feathers.
"Hey!" Tenshi protested; as the chief pulled out a feather, golden eyes glared at the offending computer toting teen.
"Amazing, so like a bird but also different," Chief was mumbling, Kai sweatdropped and decided he would have to stop his friends from mobbing Tenshi anymore for the day.
Well he tried to at least.
Tala beat him to it.
"Scat, leave Tenshi alone scavengers," Tala growled, the air seemed to become quite a few degrees colder at his words.
Everyone sweatdropped, the offending three teens around Tenshi quickly retreated from Tenshi.
"Thanks Tala," Tenshi said giving Tala a relieved smile, Tala shot Kai a very quick smug look when Tenshi turned to look at something else.
-One up on you- Tala's smirk said, Kai glared even more... Tenshi would be his.
Then Kai froze and he felt a sadness rise up inside him, he couldn't believe he was acting this way... he hadn't acted this way since...
'Since Tyson' he thought with sorrow, his heart always felt heavy with sadness with the thought of the fallen Blader of Dragoon.
'Tyson, I wonder how you would react to Tenshi' he thought softly, he was so distracted that he at first didn't notice the hand that was waving in front of his face.
"Huh..." he said startled, he blinked coming back to reality.
Annoyed a bit by the hand he grabbed it, he then looked at the owner of said hands.
To his startlement he found himself looking into laughter filled golden eyes, a smile came to the owner of the golden eye's face.
"For a second there I thought we'd lost you," Tenshi teased, Kai found himself smiling... there was something about this angelic being that caused him to smile.
Looking around he realized that his friends had accepted Tenshi and he knew he had too, while they had been startled at first... Tenshi seemed to belong with them.
"No, you didn't loose me," Kai said, it was then that both realized something. Kai was still holding onto Tenshi's hand, quickly he let it go blushing.
Unnoticed to all Tenshi blushed too, things were starting to get interesting.

Tenshi smiled to himself as they walked, because they wee heading back to normal villages he had pulled his robe on again but left the hood down.
He sweatdropped a bit when he saw Tala and Kai were having a glare war again, he wondered why they wee acting like this... Kai still couldn't be annoyed with Kai after the whole world tournament thing three years ago could he.
'No that can't be it, but why are they acting so weird towards each other' Tenshi thought confused, with an internal shrug the angelic teen decided not to think of what the other two teens problem was.
***
Three feet behind him two teens sneezed violently, once that was done they continued what they had been doing.
What they had been doing you ask, what a silly question... glaring at each other of course.
Kai fumed; Tala had been acting all smug since earlier... and that meant he was closer to Tenshi's heart then himself.
'Damn, first I loose Tyson to death now I'm going to loose Tenshi to a bastard like Tala' he thought angrily, he sent another hot glare at the red haired teen who just smirked back.
"By the way Kenny, there is something you can do," Tenshi suddenly said, this got everyone attention as Kenny walked to stand right next to the angelic being.
"What exactly do you need?" Kenny asked curious, Kai also wondered. Since three years Kenny hadn't bee able to do what he liked very much, after all the technology he had loved was mostly gone now.
"Well, I was able to find an old military base underground that was forgotten because of the chaos three years ago. The bases walls were made of some substance I didn't recognize and it shielded the technology within, the reason I tell you this is because I want you to use the stuff there to find a cure for the changed ones condition," Tenshi said, everyone looked startled at this.
"You mean Technology survived, and what do you mean cure the changed ones?" Chief asked, Tenshi looked at the sky his golden eyes sad.
"Find a way to make us human again," Tenshi whispered; silence followed that statement for a moment.
"Oh," Kenny said softly finally.
Kai took a closer look at those golden eyes; for once they didn't slow that humor filled look. It held a terrible sadness; and it was then Kai realized something, Tenshi was terrible sad... and wished to be the person he once had been.
Softly he walked up to the silver-white haired teen and pulled Tenshi into his arms, he didn't know why he did this but something about that sorrow made him want to make Tenshi smile again.
He felt Tenshi start at Kai holding him, but Tenshi didn't move away and let himself be held against Kai's chest.
"Its okay to be sad Tenshi, I'll stay with you till your happy again," Kai whispered softly, it was for Tenshi's ears only.
"Thank you," Tenshi whispered and looked up, Kai was startled to see tears shimmering in their golden depths and slipping down his cheeks.
"No, thank you," Kai whispered for his angel alone, for while holding the angelic being he had felt something in his heart he hadn't felt for three years.
Hope... he had felt hope
For the future
Also love, he wasn't going to give up yet... he had Tenshi who while seemed strong was fragile in ways he himself were strong.
'Tyson, I love you but I think it's time for me to move on' Kai thought, while this all happened the others looked on with surprise.

FH: Here we are, I started writing this fic but that heart holding moment just seemed to leap out to be written. As you can tell this is a Tenshi/Kai fic but I will put a few Tenshi/Kai moments in for Skittles.
R.Calumon: Hmmm... look's like FH might have a few more Beyblade ideas so that means after this story is done you might get another beyblade series story.
Tyson: Hey, this is all nice but shouldn't you be getting to the actual battle soon?
Kai: yes, I want to kick the demons butt
FH: All in good time, we still have more of that Egyptian Prophesy to make happen
All: Better make it fast, we want battle!
