Chapter 3: Surprise!

Rei took a deep breath as Kenny opened the door. They were suddenly greeted by Mariah at the door. She was smiling widely and the rest of the White Tigers team behind her.

"Rei!" she smiled happily, passing all the rest of them and walking to Rei. She hugged him and Lee smiled apologetically. He greeted the rest of them.

"Hey, how's it been?" he asked.

"Lee! What are you guys doing here? Aren't you supposed to be in China or something?" Tyson remarked, grinning.

Mariah still clutching Rei answered. "Well! The competitions are near so were here!"

Rei smiled but saw Kai looking at him then at Mariah with a face of dislike. He glared at them before walking to the living room.

Rei frowned feeling slightly disturbed. Mariah however went on. "This time the White Tigers we'll win for sure! We've improved since our last matches!"

Kevin nodded. "Ya, Tyson! We won't lost to amateurs like you anymore!"

"Amateurs? No way!" Tyson answered. "We'll see in the matches who'll win!"

"Hey, break it up you two!" Gary said.

Lee smiled and turned to Rei. "It's been awhile, Rei."

"Ya, I'm really surprise how you found us."

Lee smiled but before he could answer. Someone answered for him.

"Well, they had help from us!"

Their eyes turned and Max smiled.

"Mom! You guys!"

The All Starz stood there by the door. Judy was there and Max ran to her and hugged her.

"Well, this is certainly a surprise!" Dizzy remarked.

Emily smirked. "Our computer found out this is where you guys were staying at. We met them in the lobby downstairs. It looks like we stay at the same hotel."

Michael nodded, "I hope you guys are ready! The tournament this year is going to be an exciting one! Since we have improved by more than 70%!"

"Actually to be accurate, 86.78%" Emily added.

"Still the same huh, Emily?" Mariah said.

"Hmph! It's only the truth!" Emily answered. They burst out laughing. Judy spoke, "Mr. Dickinson told us about you're new member. We were curious so we came to see."

Kai entered the room and leaned on the wall. "She isn't here yet. . ."

"She?" Mariah asked, frowning slightly. She glanced at Rei who was looking at Kai. Rei glanced at Kai before turning away to make it look not look so unusual.

"Ya, a she. It was said in Mr. Dickinson's email to us. . ." Rei answered.

"I see, well is she good in beyblading?" Steve asked.

"We don't know yet. The information in the letter was very little so we don't know much" Kenny admitted.

"Ok, isn't she supposed to be here yet?" Lee asked, glancing on the clock which hung from the wall.

"Supposedly. . ." Kai answered coldly, not moving from his spot.

"Hmm. . . oh well! Come on you guys! You can wait in the living room!" Tyson said, walking to the living room. The rest of them followed except Kai and Rei.

Silence. . .

"Um. . . Kai?" Rei asked, hesitating.

"ya?" Kai amazed that he was actually responding.

"W-why are you avoiding me?"

". . . "

". . . "

"Well, Rei. That's something I'd like to keep to myself right now. . ."

"Right. . ." Rei answered, in a sort of happy yet sad sort of way.

(KAI' POV)

Why does he seem so sad? Well, I wouldn't care. . . would I?

I became silent again as he walked away to where the others were. I just stood there staring as he moved away from me. He was just so damn perfect. . .

Fuck! I can't believe I'm actually saying this. . . what's wrong with me?! Maybe, Tyson has influenced me too much! Or maybe Max! I'm not gay!

Not a silly school girl going head over heels over a guy! I'm the heartless owner of Dranzer!

My thoughts were cut of when the door bell rang again. I went to it and heard the others coming up from behind me.

"They're here!"

"Open the door, Kai!"

I didn't mind them I opened the door and there (finally) stood Mr. Dickinson. And beside him was Arriane. . .
