A/N: Heh, like I said, I'm gonna update this fic too before I leave. Alright, a lot of you seem to be confused as to why Kai carried to girl home. Well my friends, all I can say is, you'll see! ^_~ Thanks for your great reviews!
Disclaimer: I don't own Beyblade or any of its characters. However, my made-up characters, including Cissy Ashitaru and the bad guys, belong to me.
Hey, look, she's moving!
Do ya think she's awake?
Don't touch her Tyson!
The girl stirred, hearing new sounds. She felt like she was on something soft. Probably a bed. she thought. Wait. I know I'm on a bed, then only question is...where the hell am I?! The girl snapped awake and sat up.
Whoa, she's awake you guys! Max announced to the rest of the group, who were sitting in the living room watching TV.
You're right! Kenny exclaimed as he bounded over. So, what's your name?
Silence. Then, she spoke.
My name is Censoria Ashitaru, but you may call me Cissy. Everyone does. Cissy explained. So, what are your names?
I'm Tyson, and this is Max.
I'm Kenny, but my friends like to call me Chief. Either name is fine.
Ray. Nice to meet you. The girl is Mariah, and the guy over there is Kai. He was the one who carried you here.
Kai didn't bother coming over. He wasn't interested in meeting this girl that they had found. In fact, he had no clue as to why he even bothered to. It wasn't like him.
Well then, thank you Kai. Cissy said, hoping that Kai could hear. He seemed cold and distant from the rest of the group. Probably the lone wolf. she thought.
So, uh, where exactly am I? Cissy asked the group.
Oh, you're in my house. More accurately, you're in my bedroom. Mariah explained. Why were you being chased by those people anyway? Oh, by the way, they shot you, but it was a minor wound
Cissy looked at her arm and found a white bandage. She began to remove it.
Whoa, are you sure that's such a good idea-wow... Kenny was cut off as the rest of the group gasped. Where there should've been a wound, was nothing. It was as if the wound had never been there.
I can heal myself in much less time than an ordinary human. But maybe I should back up a bit. If you were already wondering, yes, I'm not an ordinary human. I was not born. In fact, I was created. Cissy told the group, as they all stood in shock.
Whoa whoa whoa, so what you're trying to say is, you're not normal? Max asked.
Yes. If you like, I can tell you some things about my past. Cissy offered.
Oh, sure, but you don't have to tell us anything that's private. Kenny said. The whole group crowded onto the bed and sat around her.
(A/N: From here on will be about Cissy's past, so don't get confused!)
Well, like I said earlier, I was created. Created to be a perfect human. Why they did it, I'm not sure, but it was for something bad. World domination or something like that. Anyway, soon the scientists figured it out, but they didn't want to be involved with it. So, they lied and said that the project had failed, and then they took their creations' and put us into different families around the world, so they could never find us.
So there are more of you guys? Tyson asked.
I only know of one more person, but I don't know where he is now. Cissy said sadly. At first it seemed like they would never find us, but somehow they did. So now, we have to flee for our lives, or face capture.
Who were the people that you lived with for most of your life? Mariah asked kindly, hoping not to make Cissy more sad.
Oh, they were very nice. I had one older sister named Lisa, and one younger brother named Lan. They treated me no different, even if I was perfect, we had a great time together. Cissy smiled as she remembered her memories. If you don't mind, that's all I'd like to say for now.
Wow. I never imagined that something as complicated as that could happen. Kenny exclaimed.
This is great and all, but there's a problem if you stay here: What are we going to say to Lee and the others? Ray questioned. Sure, we could tell them what happened, but would it be wise?
I guess we'll just have to tell them. Besides, if you have any other bright ideas, I'd like to hear them, Raymond. Mariah said, while opening the window to let in some air.
Ray winced. Mariah rarely called him by his full name. He wasn't really used to it. Most people just called him Ray.
Who's Lee? And what are those top thingys that you guys carry around all the time? Cissy asked, while pointing toward Ray's beyblade.
Oh, Lee's a friend of ours. He's coming over in about...5 minutes for a sleep-over. This top thingy' is called a beyblade. Ever heard of it? Ray explained to Cissy.
Beyblade...that sounds familier...oh yeah, beyblade! My brother had one of those. Although they weren't too popular from where I lived. But it was catching on. Cissy said. Suddenly, Mariah's mom opened the door.
Oh, hi kids, hope you're having a good time. Mariah, Lee and the rest of the White Tigers just arrived. Go out there and meet them! Mariah's mom shooed the kids out of the bedroom and into the living room. There stood the rest of the White Tigers, looking around.
Hey guys, it's been a while, hasn't it? Ray greeted the rest of the White Tigers. He used to be on their team, but now he was part of the Bladebreakers. But that didn't mean that they couldn't still be friends.
Ray, good to see ya buddy! Lee went over and shook hands with Ray. So, how's your relationship', eh? He nudged Ray and grinned.
Ray felt himself flushing red. Just fine Lee, just fine. he muttered. He wasn't very comfortable about the whole group knowing that he still hadn't asked Mariah out, even though it was obvious that they liked each other.
------------------------------------------
After the White Tigers had settled in, and after Mariah and the Bladebreakers had filled them in on who Cissy was, and after dinner, the whole gang was sprawled out on the couch, deciding what to do next.
Board game? Kenny suggested.
Tyson complained. The rest of the group agreed.
Okay, what about video games? Max said nervously, afraid that Tyson would yell again.
That would be fine, but we wouldn't have enough controllers. Mariah told them. Look, since we all just ate, who's up for a movie?
A chorus of me' and yes' filled the room.
Okay then, it's decided, we're watching a movie. Now, what are we going to watch? Mariah held up a variety of DVDs. I have The Matrix, Princess Mononoke, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, End of EVA, The Mummy, and Minority Report.
Who wants to watch Princess Mononoke?! That movie's got too much romance! Kevin complained.
Hey, romance is good! I want to watch End of EVA. Cissy shot back.
Same here. End of EVA. Kai said quietly. He quickly glanced at Cissy. She smiled back. Kai felt his cheeks getting warm. Why does this happen every time I think of her?!?he thought to himself.
I want Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon! Ray yelled. The White Tigers all nodded their heads.
Anything is fine with me! Max told her.
Same here! Kenny added.
Well then, it's unanimous. We're watching Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. Mariah exclaimed as she popped the DVD in, then sat down on the couch next to Ray. She could feel him moving a bit to make room for her. She snuggled a bit closer to him.
--------------------------------------------
After the movie...
Tyson yawned. It's 11:30PM now, what do you guys wanna do? He stilfed another yawn.
It's late, but not that late. Let's play either Truth or Dare or Spin the Bottle! Cissy yelled! Everyone winced. Oops, forgot it's almost midnight! Sorry.
Truth or Dare first. Then when our brains get really tired we can just play spin the bottle. Max suggested.
Mariah grinned. Let's play truth or dare! And no backing out either! If you don't do it, then Cissy's going to beat you up!
Hey, I didn't say I was going to beat anybody up! Cissy exclaimed. How about I just punch them or something? That way there's less of a chance of them dying.
Fine, fine, just a punch. Okay, who's gonna go first? Mariah asked. In the end, Tyson was decided to go first.
Tyson started off. So, Kai, truth or dare?
Knowing you, I think I'll take truth Kai replied.
Fine then. So, Mr. Lone Wolf, why did you carry the girl home anyway? That's not like you.
Kai froze. Damn damn damn! Why did I say truth anyways?! He swore silently to himself, then proceeded to answer. Because, I was the probably the only one strong enough. I doubt that you could've done that, Tyson.
Dang, I was hoping to get a better answer than that! Tyson pouted.
So, Ray, truth or dare? he asked cooly. It didn't matter which one he picked, he already had two perfect replies.
Ray blushed. He knew what was coming up. Uh, truth.
Kai frowned slightly. Damn, I was hoping that he'd pick dare. Doesn't matter, I still have a good question. Okay then, tell us. Do you love Mariah?
At this point Mariah's face turned red and Ray's just got redder.
Uh, I, like her, well, I guess I do love her... Ray was now blushing several shades of red.
Mariah blushed harder. So, he does love me. she sighed, then went back to watching the game.
Ray quickly recovered and then went on to ask Kenny. Kenny, truth or dare?
Kenny looked surprised. Since no one has done it yet, I guess I'll take dare.
Ray grinned somewhat evily. Okay then, I dare you to give me Dizzi for 24 hours!
Noo! Well, okay, but you better not damage her! Kenny reluctently handed his laptop over. In the end, Ray had to pry his fingers off. He took Dizzi and put her in Mariah's room.
Now that it's my turn, Max, truth or dare? Kenny asked.
Dare! God, barely anyone has done one of these! Max exclaimed.
Fine then. I dare you to go into the kitchen, ask for 20 ice cubes, and then bring them back here, and drop them into this bowl. However, you can only bring them back in your mouth, no hands whatsoever. You can make more than one trip.
Wha-what?! But I can't do that! Max sighed in defeat and went into the kitchen. Kenny just put on his most innocent face. Max came back 2 minutes later and spat out 4 ice cubes.
Well, you're 1/5 of the way done! Tyson cheered on his best friend. Max just nodded grimly and procceeded to get the rest. Once all 20 were in the bowl, Max sat down.
God, that was embarrassing! Your mom was staring at me the whole time like I was nuts! Max whined. So, anyway, Mariah, truth or dare?
Mariah thought about the two choices carefully If I pick dare, I'm probably going to end up doing something that I'll regret. If I pick truth, I'll be spilling my most precious secrets to everyone...bah, what the hell, I'll pick dare! Out loud she said,
Max smiled. Yes! I knew she'd pick dare! Okay Mariah, I dare you to go into that closet and kiss Ray!
The whole group was silent for a second. Then...
Well what are you two waiting for, go! Do you want me to take a picture of you two in there?! Cissy exclaimed as she dragged both Ray and Mariah into a closet, and shut the door.
Ray just stood in the darkness of the closet, not quite knowing what to do. Mariah sat opposite of him.
So...uh...are we going to do the dare? Ray asked quietly. Secretly, he was glad, but he didn' admit it.
Uh, I guess so...I mean, a dare is a dare. Mariah replied.
You know, you don't have to if you don't want- Ray was quickly cut off since Mariah's lips were on top of his Okay then, I'll take it that you do wanna do the dare. She quickly broke apart.
Sorry Ray, it's just that, I, well...you know. Mariah trailed off. Ray just sat there, still shocked that she had made the first move.
Huh? Oh no Mariah, I didn't mind that. It was actually quite nice.
Really? That's what I thought too. Ray smiled and leaned closer.
So, you wanna go again? Ray asked. Mariah nodded and smiled.
Ray pressed his lips against her's and kissed her. He felt Mariah wrap her arms around his neck. He wrapped his around her waist. There they were, kissing in the dark of the closet, without a care in the world.
------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, the rest of the group were disscussing.
Do you think we should check on them? I mean, it has been 5 minutes. Max asked worridly.
Yeah, I think so too. I'll go check. Cissy volunteered and went and opened the closet door. What they saw totally blew them away.
Well, whaddya know, they actually did it.
-------------------------------------------------------
A/N: Heh, sorry if this chapter's kinda short, I totally stink at these kinds of stories. ^_^; Yay, I wrote my first kissing scene! Not bad if I do say so myself. ^_^ I know, it's cliffhanger-ish, but I updated! Well, tell me how I did, and don't kill me for paring Kai up with an OC! I promise it won't be totally focused on her! I'll see you when I get back from Yosemite!
