Chapter 2#
Tournaments = Money
Maya and Lily walked up the creaky old metal stairs, which led to the top level of the run down apartments. Maya stopped at a door, it was metal with stains all over the front, and the numbers 188 were staring to peel off. Sighing Maya slid the card through the machine, 'beep, beep' the red light flashed on.
"Arr damn thing," Maya growled as she swiped the card again, 'beep, beep' red.
"Oh for heavens sake," Maya took a step back and kicked down the door, disturbing the dust inside.
'Beep, beep' green.
Growling Maya stepped over the door and into the apartment, it was plain and dirty, there were two mats placed next to each other in one corner, with one black bag on top of each one.
The kitchen was situated in an other corner, it had a tiny fridge that was under the dusty counter, dirty dishes were stacked up in the sink and the bin was over flowing with fast food containers. There was a small run down television with an old couch in front of it in the middle of the room, a wooden door that looked like it was about to fall of it's hinges lead to the small bathroom.
Lily causally stepped in.
"We have to pay for a new door again," she stated, as she pushed the door back up.
"I know," Maya snarled as she flung herself over the top off the couch, to land neatly on the wearing cushions.
"Home sweet home," Lily said sarcastically as she pulled a piece of peeling wallpaper of the wall, causing a huge chunk of plaster to come off with it.
"Seriously can't we afford better?"
"Nope, the way we're going and if Khil starts demanding more, soon we'll be leaving life on the streets," Maya said in a voice that told she was being serious.
"Maybe the streets will be better then this dump," Lily mumbled as she went and took a seat next to Maya.
There was a crack of thunder over head, Lily quickly got up and ran into the kitchen, she placed a few pots and pans around the place, there was another crack of thunder before the rain started to bucket down on the tin roof.
Lily sighed and sat down next to Maya again.
"I hate this place," she snarled.
Suddenly there was a creek, then a loud crash, Lily and Maya got up and turned around, apart of the roof just caved in.
"I'm going to bed," Maya stated simply as she walked over to one of the mats.
"How the hell can you sleep, half the roof caved in and the door isn't even secured on," Lily yelled throwing her hands up in the air as he turned around.
Maya didn't reply, she was sitting with the black bag open between her legs as she searched through it; she pulled out a pair of red silk pj's.
Lily looked at her stunned.
"Where the hell did you get that?" she shouted, pointing to the nightclothes.
"The clothes shop around the corner, don't worry I got you a pair too."
Maya dug through her bag and pulled out a pair of identical pyjamas, but they were deep purple in colour. Lily squealed with joy and bounded over to Maya, she snatched the nightclothes out Maya's hands and started to rub it against her cheek.
"So silky," she purred.
Maya rolled her eyes and got up off the bed, heading over towards the bathroom.
"I'm going to have a shower, then I'm going to bed."
A crack of thunder rumbled over the house as Maya tried the best she could to close the door, Lily looked up at the roof, a worried look on her face.
"I hope it stays up," she muttered as she started to pull off her clothes.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Maya yawned as she stepped out of the bathroom, she had her red pyjamas on. Her black hair ran in wet clumps down her back, she grabbed her towel and tried to get more water out of her hair.
Maya's eyes travelled over to the mats, curled neatly in ball on one of the mats, with her clothes nicely folded on the ended of the bed, was the sleeping figure of Lily.
Maya smiled, she quickly chucked the towel onto the sofa and moved her bag off the bed. She slipped under the blanket and rested her head lightly on her arm, her cat eyes moved around the room, picking up every object. Sighing she closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Lily stood nervously out side the huge beyblade stadium, Maya had run off and told her to stay there, people pushed past her and it was getting crowded.
Suddenly two hands grabbed her shoulders, Lily screamed.
"Chill Lil, it's only me," Maya's voice spoke over her shoulder.
Lily placed her hand over her chest; she could feel her heart was beating faster then normal.
"Don't you ever do that to me again," she snapped, turning around to point the finger at Maya, but she wasn't there.
"Huh?"
"Looking for me?"
Lily spun around again, Maya was now standing in front of her, Lily growled.
"Remind me again why were here?"
"We're here because there are a lot of people and they're being careless."
Lily looked confused.
Maya rolled her eyes in response, "watch."
Maya turned around; she bumped into a guy that was in a black suit.
"Sorry Sir," Maya said bowing her head.
"Quite alright," he replied and continued on walking.
Maya turned around a huge grin on her face. She pulled out an object from her pocket; she flashed a wallet in Lily's face.
Lily smiled; she stepped to the side and bumped into a lady.
"I'm sorry Miss," she said bowing her head, "what lovely earrings," Lily commented as she glanced up, touching the diamond earrings.
"Why thank you," the lady replied, "my husband gave them to me on our anniversary."
"He did?"
"Yes, well I better be off I have to meet up with him now."
Lily bowed and watched the lady disappear into the crowd, she turned around and grinned, she pulled out and waved around a red purse and the pair of earings that the lady was just wearing.
Maya frowned, she turned around and bumped into someone, she quickly took the persons stuff before looking up.
"Oh no," she blurted out as she recognised the face.
A blonde haired boy smiled down at her; "it's you."
"Err....yeah," Maya smiled weakly before dashing off into the crowd.
"Hey Max, what are you doing?" Tyson's load voice was heard us he walked up next to Max.
Ray, Kai and Kenny closely followed behind him.
"I saw one of the girls that took Kai's wallet yesterday," he stated, turning to the group.
"She bumped into me."
"Max cheek your pockets," Kai demanded.
Max searched his pockets, he took out his wallet. Max then reached for his back pocket.
"Oh hell no," he yelled, quickly padding down all his pockets.
"What did she take?" Kai snapped.
"Draciel, she took my blade," he cried.
"Which way did she go?" Ray snapped.
"That way," Max pointed in the direction.
Ray quickly disappeared into the crowd.
"Ray, Wait! We need to make a plan!" Kai yelled after him.
